Before Nan Muze could let go, Liu Shengsheng had already gently pushed him away, and then said nervously: "The little prince is still in my arms."
A trace of surprise flashed in Nan Muze's eyes, as if he were saying: Did you really save the person?
Liu Shengsheng looked at him helplessly, "The suspicion in your eyes is too obvious. Can you have some trust in me?"
"I never doubted you, I was just worried."
Nan Muze explained slowly.
Liu Shengsheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, am I safe? And I rescued people safely, you see."
Looking at the sleeping child in her arms, Nan Muze suddenly fell silent for some reason.
If Liu Shengsheng had not drank that bowl of soup, maybe they would have children of their own now, right?
Thinking of this, Nan Muze suddenly felt extremely guilty, and reached out to hug Liu Shengsheng again.
Liu Shengsheng pushed him away quickly, "If you hug me again later, you will squeeze him."
Nan Muze: "..."
Suddenly I felt that the child was an eyesore. What was going on?
"In order to prevent the child from crying, they gave him a lot of drugs. This little body couldn't bear it. Although I had given him the antidote, he was frightened and had a fever just now. Originally, he had just woken up, but I was afraid that his crying would attract Nan Bangning and the others, so I gave him some more medicine. Now I have to take him back for treatment as soon as possible. It would be bad if the root of the disease is left."
Liu Shengsheng said as she walked down the mountain.
Nan Muze followed her quietly, "You shouldn't come alone."
"I didn't come alone. I brought a lot of secret guards with me, but just now I just focused on escaping by myself. I don't know what happened to them."
Nan Muze frowned, "You should take me with you before taking action."
Liu Shengsheng smiled and said, "Don't you have something to do? I can't just call you on everything, right? I still took good care of myself without you in the past, and this time I also asked someone to tell you."
Speaking of this, Liu Shengsheng suddenly thought of Ah Xing, "By the way, where is Ah Xing? Why isn't he here?"
"There are many roads up the mountain. I asked them to divide their troops into several roads. Ah Xing led a team of troops to search another road."
"Oh, I think Nan Banning and the others have already fled far away. After repeated searches, they can't be found, so we should go back soon."
Nan Muze stretched out his hand, gently took the child in her arms, and said calmly, "Nan Banning is indeed back."
"Well, he seems to have listened to his mother's orders. I always feel like he can't help himself. I wonder if I'm hallucinating."
Nan Muze said calmly: "It's possible. Concubine Hua has a somewhat extreme personality."
"How do you say this?" Liu Shengsheng was a little curious.
Just listen to Nan Muze patiently explain:
"Hua Guifei is one of the concubines who has been with the emperor for the longest time, but at the beginning, she was not the most favored one. Although she slowly climbed from being a talented person to the position of a concubine, she has nothing to do with the harem. Compared with other beauties, she somewhat eclipses her, and she was able to become a concubine only because she gave birth to a prince."
"But she didn't seem to be satisfied after giving birth to the prince. She was very jealous and competitive. She would often be jealous of other concubines. Although this is normal in the harem, it is often difficult for such a woman to She has always been loved by people, but the emperor is a nostalgic person. Even though he no longer loved her at first, he always kept her by his side."
Liu Shengsheng raised her eyebrows, "How do you know so clearly?"
"Because I once saw her beat Nan Bangning."
Liu Shengsheng's expression changed, "The beating you are talking about is the kind of beating that a mother would use to beat her child?"
If so, it seems quite normal. It is not uncommon for mothers to spank their children.
Nan Muze said: "It's more like an enemy. That was the first time I saw a mother beating her child until it was bloody. There were whip wounds all over the body, but it was nothing to do with me.
, I will not interfere, it is her child, and how she educates it is her business. "
Liu Shengsheng was a little surprised, "No way? He was so cruel. Did he make a big mistake that was unforgivable at that time?"
Nan Muze shook his head, "I don't know."
"It's impossible to beat her own child just because she wants to hit someone, right? Since she hates her child so much, why doesn't she just give it to someone else to take care of? As a royal concubine, she doesn't necessarily have to do it herself. If you take care of your children and leave them to others, won’t you lose sight of them and out of mind?”
Nan Muze was silent and said, "She is the only concubine in the palace who has taken her children with her since she was a child."
"Are you so caring? It seems that she is a very good mother. I see that most of the ladies from wealthy families give birth to their children and leave them to the wet nurse. How can they keep them with them from childhood to adulthood? And as a noble concubine, she It’s really rare to be able to raise my own children myself.”
"I think she is very controlling."
Nan Muze spoke calmly, and then added: "Perhaps she regards Nan Banning as a bargaining chip to make a comeback. She is afraid that others will lead her astray, that the children educated by others will not be what she wants, and that the future will not be perfect. If you control your own children, you are even more afraid of raising a rebellious and disobedient child, so you will always tie the person to your side. This is not like family affection. Real family affection requires proper letting go."
Liu Shengsheng narrowed her eyes meaningfully, "What you said makes sense. It seems that Nan Banning doesn't have any freedom at all..."
Nan Muze nodded lightly, "That's why I never took Nan Banning seriously. I thought that people who grew up in such an environment would never be able to make big waves. Later, I found out that he was plotting behind his back, and I was a little surprised. .”
Liu Shengsheng fell into deep thought for a long time before asking, "How old was he when he was beaten?"
"About seven or eight years old, I don't remember it too carefully."
"Later, did he get beaten?"
"I don't know, I've never been attracted to him."
For some reason, Liu Shengsheng's heart was touched, and she suddenly felt sympathy for Nan Wanning.
But soon she shook her head.
Don't be overwhelmed by the Holy Mother's heart. Just now, she forced herself to jump off the cliff!
He then heard Nan Muze say: "Now that he has grown up, Concubine Hua Guifei should also restrain himself."
Liu Shengsheng nodded slightly, sighed and said, "Maybe."
While talking, the two of them had reached the foot of the mountain.
At this moment, Xiaojiang also followed up using Qinggong.
"Master, those two people bit their tongues and committed suicide!"
As soon as his voice fell, the person had already jumped to the tree behind them.
I heard him panting and saying: "Originally we planned to capture them alive and take them to the palace to identify Concubine Hua, but now we have no witnesses."
Nan Muze gave him the child in his hand, and then said coldly: "Where are the remaining people? Did they all escape?"
Xiao Jiang hugged the little prince with an embarrassed look on his face, "Master, my subordinates tried their best..."
