Consort Lu calmed down.

She immediately instructed Qianhong, “Go to the Punishment Bureau and get them to investigate what’s going on with this carriage.”

“Yes, this servant will go now.”

Qianhong first responded, but then she was a little hesitant.

“Your Highness. How about you wait here for a while and this servant goes and gets a sedan to pick you up?”

Before Consort Lu could say anything, Gu Nuo’er said softly, “You can sit in my carriage.”

The child smiled sweetly and generously. “The space isn’t big, but it’s more than enough for a pretty consort like you.”

Consort Lu already had a good impression of this child in front of her.

Regardless of whether she was an enemy country’s princess or not, at least she had saved her life now.

Consort Lu smiled and said gently, “Then I’ll have to trouble Princess Yaoguang. I’ll ride in the same carriage with you first.”

Qianhong helped Consort Lu into the carriage.

Gu Nuo’er glanced at the soldiers General Zheng had arranged. “We can set off now.”

As she spoke, she shrank back into the carriage.

The soldier was left in a daze.

Why did this little princess’s tone sound like she was lecturing her own palace servants?!

The soldier was unconvinced, but considering that Consort Lu was in the carriage,

He didn’t dare to be negligent anymore.

The guard guarding the gate hurriedly let them pass and the wheels slowly turned.

Gu Nuo’er and Consort Lu sat opposite each other.

The child handed over the pastries that Wei Cang had bought for her on the way like a host.

“Here, pretty consort, try it.”

Consort Lu lowered her eyes and saw that it was an ordinary pastry that was eaten by the Xili citizens.

There was bean paste inside and fried crispy outer skin outside.

She took a bite and there was the fragrance of sesame.

She rarely ate such things in the past. It was always the imperial kitchen in the Xili Empire that was in charge of her three meals and pastries a day.

At first taste, she felt that the pastry tasted very good.

Consort Lu quietly finished a pastry before she smiled and said, “Thank you.”

Gu Nuo’er rested her chin on her small hand, her feet swaying slightly together with the carriage’s momentum.

“Oh, you’re welcome.”

Consort Lu took the initiative to find a topic to chat with her.

“Your trip here must have been tiring.”

“Huh? I had a lot of fun. It wasn’t tiring at all!” Gu Nuo’er blinked her watery eyes, which were clear and bright.

When Consort Lu heard her words, she felt that they were really strange..

She couldn’t help but smile. “How did you tell that there was something wrong with the carriage just now?”

“Through observing. It only takes a closer look to realize that the four horses are standing in different positions.”

Gu Nuo’er replied in a soft voice, her logic coherent.

“I’ve sat in a carriage pulled by four horses like this in the past. The reins are tied to four horses. Once they stop, the four horses will be pulled by the reins. Their positions should be aligned in the front, back, left, and right.

“But the four horses for your carriage are all standing separately. It’s obvious that there’s a problem with the reins.”

“But the four horses in your carriage are all standing separately. It’s obvious that there’s a problem with the reins.”

“From your tone, you’ve encountered such a thing before?”

A hint of smugness appeared on Gu Nuo’er’s fair and pink face.

“That’s right. Before I was three years old, there were always people who wanted to kill me. I’m already used to cases of people tampering with the carriage.”

Consort Lu was amused by her adult-like appearance and asked, “There wasn’t any after the age of three?”

“There wasn’t. Those who were stupid and wanted to make a move were all killed by my father.”

Consort Lu was speechless.

She thought of the rumored personality of the Great Qi’s emperor, Gu Yihan.

It was understandable.

The child looked up. “You don’t have to be afraid now either. The carriage I’m sitting in is the safest in the palace now.”
