Chapter 203 My Savage Husband (69)

   "About August or October!"

  Su Qiruo said softly.

   "That's really fast..."

  Nan Jingmu slightly raised the corners of his mouth. This night, he could finally sleep soundly.

  Although he only told the truth after she found out, but after all, someone helped him share this secret. Nan Jingmu felt more at ease than ever before.

  Nan Jingmu slept soundly, Su Qiruo hugged him like this for a whole night, until the next morning when she woke up with numb arms, she regretted why she didn't know how to change direction.

  Nan Jingmu also gave Su Qiruo the key to the secret room containing his dowry. He felt that he couldn't go to Nanfu, so she might have a chance to go in and have a look.

  In case some evidence is found, they can avoid many detours.

  Since Nan Jingmu and Su Qiruo confessed their identities, the gap between them has finally been filled. The relationship between the two has grown by leaps and bounds, and he no longer wants to leave.

  If Su Qi is in a good mood, he will be energetic in doing things.

  Catching up with the scorching summer, the secretly made ice was quickly sent to major mansions and shops. The market was very good and they made a lot of money. The Empress Dowager has also taken over this year's scientific research.

  That night, just as Dongfang Yan came out of Qin Tianjian, a person slipped in.

   Within a few days, the weather changed suddenly. After a thunderstorm, a century-old pine tree in the imperial garden was directly split from the middle.

  The palace attendant who was cleaning in the imperial garden turned pale with shock when he saw the split tree, and hurriedly went to call for someone.

   After everyone gathered around, they discovered that there were words on the split tree trunk.

   "The grievances are unknown, and the Eastern Kingdom is in danger."

  The emperor was furious, and ordered people to drag out the tree with the writing on it and burn it, and summoned the people from Qin Tianjian to enter the palace.

   I don’t know what Qin Tianjian said to the emperor, but on the second day in the court, the emperor banned Mr. Zhang’s feet on the grounds that Zhang’s family was not strict with the daughters and beat people to death in the street.

  Dongfang Yan stepped forward to intercede, but was also reprimanded by the emperor, scolding bloody.

  When Dejun in the harem got the news, he hurried to the imperial study with the boiled soup, and was grounded by the emperor for meddling in the harem, and his monthly sentence was deducted for half a year.

  Su Qiruo curled her lips in disdain: "After all, the emperor still prefers Dongfang Yan."

   Qin Tianjian pointed out the reason for the divine punishment so straightforwardly, and the emperor was not willing to punish her. He was not so lenient to Nanfu back then.

  The Crown Princess curled her lips indifferently and said: "It wasn't like this when the Empress was young, but now I'm afraid she only cares about herself!"

She doesn't think that the emperor favors Dongfang Yan, this is just the beginning, if Dongfang Yan had really tampered with General Nan's mansion before, with yesterday's incident and Qin Tianjian's "observation", then the emperor would not be able to do it again. Trust her.

   "Cousin, when you sit in that position in the future, will you still remember your original intention today?"

  Su Qiruo put down the teacup in his hand and asked suddenly.

  The princess laughed lightly, looked sideways at Su Qiruo and said, "I still have half of the Su family's blood in my bones!"

  Su Qiruo was startled, then smiled too.

  The century-old Su family is loyal and benevolent, after all, it is much cleaner than the royal family.

   "If I become like the Queen Mother in the future, would my cousin be willing to wake me up?"

  The empress stopped the smile on her face, looked at Su Qiruo and said seriously.

   "If you can save the common people, Qi Ruo is willing to risk your life."

  Su Qiruo can't guarantee whether such a good princess will forget her original intention after staying at the top for a long time.

  But the current Crown Prince is indeed the best person in power. If she is the king, it will be a blessing for the people of Dongshan Kingdom.

   "I watched you grow up. Although you and I are not biological sisters, we are better than our own. Even if you really hit me at that time, I won't be willing to hurt you."

  The empress raised her hand and rubbed the top of Su Qiruo's hair, just like when she was a child.

   "My cousin loves me, I know it all."

  Su Qiruo's smile came from the bottom of her heart, the empress did treat her closer than those sisters in the mansion.

   "When are you planning to marry Mr. Xie?"

   Thinking of Su Qiruo's savior, the princess couldn't help asking.

   "Let's talk about it at the end of the year!"

  Su Qiruo whispered, now is the critical period, she doesn't have so much energy to prepare for the marriage.

  Besides, the matter of Nan's family is over, Nan Jingmu probably doesn't want to marry her now, it's better to wait until Dongfang Yan's matter is resolved.

   "You are not young anymore, and your father has always been concerned about your marriage. If it weren't for Dongfang Yan's obstruction, you and the son of the Nan family are probably married now."

  The princess sighed, it was not easy for her cousin.

  Su Qiruo smiled and didn't respond, she still dare not tell the crown daughter about Nan Jingmu's identity, but she also doesn't want to lie to her.

   "Now that Mrs. Zhang has been grounded, it's a good time for my uncle to take back the harem. Cousin should also seize the opportunity to get Dongfang Yan's military department back."

  Su Qiruo is starting to worry now, if the border war will start in a few months, if the princess is not fully prepared, she will definitely be tricked by Dongfang Yan, and her life will be lost at that time.

  Bring the Ministry of War back earlier, even if what happens in the future, it will be up to you, and you will not be calculated by others.

  By the time Su Qiruo came out from the Empress's Mansion, it was already dark.

  Her days of feigning incapacity are coming to an end, and this struggle...is about to reach its climax.

  Just as she was about to return to the mansion, Su Qiruo suddenly touched the key in her sleeve, turned around, and went to General Nan's mansion again.

  With Nan Jingmu's trouble before, there are many more hidden guards around General Nan's mansion.

  But Su Qiruo's martial arts is much better than Nanjing Mu's, and these hidden guards are not the first-class masters around the emperor, so they are not Su Qiruo's opponents.

  The figure disappeared outside the courtyard in a flash. According to the location Nan Jingmu said, Su Qiruo quickly touched the dark room.

  Take out a night pearl from her bosom and put it on the top of the shelf, Su Qiruo lights a few more candles, and the room is suddenly bright.

  She is not interested in the jewels in the room, but the pile of books on the shelf is very eye-catching.

  If the things contained here are the dowry left by General Nan to Nan Jingmu, these books will seem a bit out of place.

   Stepping forward to open a book, a stack of wrapped papers suddenly fell to the ground.

  Su Qiruo leaned over to pick it up, and when she saw the words on it clearly, she was instantly stunned.

  It turns out that General Nan already knew that the emperor was going to deal with her, and Dongfang Yan was just the emperor's tool man.

   Isn't this evidence exactly what the Tai Nu and the others have been looking for?

   Now it is only necessary to find Guo Lin, together with the things in the hands of the empress dowager, to prove that the Nan family is innocent.

  If it proves that the people who colluded with Xiguo were not the Nan family, then the implication is that Dongfang Yan and the Zhang family are the ones who really colluded with foreign thieves.
