After Fengling took Ning Yao and Ning Ze into the courtyard, she told Su Rong what she had said and then turned around and left.
Ning Ze looked at Ning Yao, "Sister, Su Rong said that we should sleep peacefully?"
He hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time. He was always worried about losing his life and had trouble sleeping and eating.
Ning Yao nodded and said to Ning Ze: "At least we are safe now. She asked us to sleep peacefully, so just sleep peacefully!"
Ning Ze was still a little unsure, "Sister, what does safety mean now? Does it mean we are still in danger?"
Ning Yao nodded, "If they learn that we followed Fengling here, Yan Li and Yan Lin will definitely not let us go. On the way back to Nanping, based on my understanding of them, they will definitely send people to rob and kill us."
Ning Ze's slightly bloody face suddenly turned pale again, "Sister, what should I do?"
"We have no choice but to believe that Su Rong can protect us." Ning Yao said: "What we can rely on now is Su Rong."
Ning Ze didn't believe it, "Will she protect us?"
"Yes." Ning Yao looked at him, "I betrayed Yan Li and Yan Lin, and I am determined not to go to them. Instead of letting them use us to threaten my father, they may torture us during the period, or kill us after using us. It's better to follow Su Rong. Now that the prince has gained power, Yan Li has been demoted to a commoner. Yan Lin is a pure villain, cautious and prudent, and will retaliate for his anger, so he is not a benevolent king."
Ning Ze was puzzled, "Sister, you said you betrayed Yan Li and Yan Lin, but now Yan Lin is fine."
"The reason why Yan Lin is fine is that the prince may have other plans." Ning Yao put her hand on her lower abdomen, "We just want to return to Nanping safely and be alive."
Ning Ze nodded.
Ning Yao looked at her brother who no longer had any nobility or high-spirited spirit, and felt a dull pain in her heart to inject him in advance, "After returning to Nanping, let's live a stable life! Don't compete with your eldest brother for the position of heir apparent. Now the eldest prince has been exposed. , you and I have ended up like this, it’s hard to save our lives, all our hands are folded in, we can’t fight, it’s a waste of lives.”
Ning Ze was dejected, "Sister, even if I don't fight, will he let me go?"
Ning Yao shook her head, "I don't know, you can ask him. We are blood relatives after all."
Ning Ze was about to cry, "Sister, why did it come to this point? You failed, and Yan Li was exposed without even using the strength to resist. It's just like a dream."
Ning Yao said calmly: "Three feet of ice cannot be frozen in a day. The prince has been holding back for several years. It was because I couldn't see the situation clearly and acted too hastily."
She sighed softly, "After all, we have reached this point now. If we stop the loss in time, we can still save our lives. Otherwise... I, the child in my belly, and you will all die."
Ning Ze immediately said: "Sister, I don't want to die."
Who would want to die if they could live?
Ning Yao looked at him, "Since you don't want to die, from now on, just keep to yourself! Stop fighting for the title and live a peaceful life."
Ning Ze nodded sadly. After this experience, he never wanted to experience it again. Seeing Ning Yao's hand on her lower abdomen, he asked: "Sister, do you really want to give birth to this child?"
Ning Yao said nothing.
Ning Ze added: "Even if Yan Li hates you, what you carry in your belly is his flesh and blood. Is he really willing to do it?"
"He has been taken to the Second Prince's Mansion by Yan Lin, which proves that he is unwilling. The reason why he has ended up like this is inseparable from the things I confessed to him behind the scenes. He is just a child. He can find someone else. I want to give birth to as many women as I want, and the one in my belly is not the only one. He doesn’t care. He is a ruthless and ruthless man, and he can do it to his own father, let alone his own flesh and blood."
Ning Ze heard this and said, "Sister, just abort the child. Keeping this child is also a hidden danger."
"If you want to fight, you can't fight now. You have to go back to Nanping." Ning Yao didn't really want to keep the child, but now was really not the time to have an abortion. She had to hurry.
Ning Ze thought about it too.
The two siblings talked for a while, and after feeling at ease for most of the time, they were both tired and went to rest.
Ning Ze fell asleep quickly.
Ning Yao couldn't sleep, lying on the bed, thinking that now that she had made a decision, she would not regret it. She was right to save her younger brother. Her brother, who is a close relative by blood and a compatriot from the same mother, is what she relies on. Even if he cannot withstand the situation, as long as they are alive, they are relatives, close by blood, even if the bones are broken and the tendons are connected, no matter how hard they are, will hurt each other. But Yan Li was different. She had been married to Yan Li for several years, and she knew Yan Li's temper very well. Not to mention that Yan Li couldn't even protect himself now. Even if he could, he would push her to take the blame and protect himself. Now it's just that she betrayed him and didn't stand up for him. Otherwise, she might end up dead, and her brother would also play.
Now that she can live and her brother can live, she believes that there is a prince here who will be merciful and spare their lives for the sake of his confession of Yan Li and Yan Lin.
Therefore, she saved herself and her brother without any regrets.
That night, Su Rong went to the East Palace and took Nanny Zhao and Yue Wan with her.
When Aunt Zhao saw Yan Huisheng, her eyes immediately turned red and she wanted to kneel down to say goodbye.
Yan Huisheng immediately stretched out his hand to support her, "Mom, no courtesy, you don't need to be polite when you see Gu."
Aunt Zhao thanked her, then looked at Yan Huihui, "Your Highness, when I left the capital, I didn't expect to come back today. At that time, I thought I would never see Your Highness again."
Yan Hui replied with a smile: "Thanks to my cousin, I have the chance to come back again. I feel so relieved to be alone."
Aunt Zhao wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "Isn't that right? When I saw Miss Seven, she really looked like Princess Zhenmin back then. I always knew that the Queen Mother was still thinking about the princess until her death. Now I Being by Miss Seventh's side can help ease the Queen Mother's heart."
Yan Hui nodded, "My cousin has already told me that my mother and Yue Wan will stay in Gu's East Palace for the time being, accompanying the young lady of Ye Xiang's Mansion, and just live in peace. When she comes back from Northern Hebei, you can follow her again." ."
Aunt Zhao nodded, "I can still do some things for Your Highness. I am not too old to move now, so these old bones are still useful. If anything happens in Your Highness's house, just tell me."
Yan Hui smiled and said, "Don't worry, Grandma. I know what Grandma is capable of, so I won't be polite."
Yue Wan stood aside, listening to the two of them talking back and forth, looking at this and that, then tugged on Su Rong's sleeves and whispered softly, "Miss, His Royal Highness is so handsome."
Su Rong glanced at her sideways, "Then I'll give you to him? Don't follow me to Nanchu?"
Yuewan shook her head firmly, "No."
No matter how handsome a person is, her young lady will not be able to cook for her. In the future, she will help the young lady run the house. People who are in charge of the internal affairs of the Nanchu Palace cannot spend time in the East Palace just for beauty.
