Chapter 109: Escape by Car
Yu Shengsheng looked at Nanny Zhou with clear and sincere eyes.
"Mammy, I want to leave the Su family. Are you willing to go with me?"
Nanny Zhou opened her eyes slightly, and after a look of surprise, she suddenly realized.
"Yes, I do."
There was no need to say anything extra. Yu Shengsheng nodded and said, "Let's go."
Before going to the academy, Jin Baobao rented a carriage and filled it with soft bedding.
Yu Shengsheng took Nanny Zhou and Grandma Wu out quietly through the side door and found the parked carriage.
While Nanny Zhou helped take care of Grandma Wu, Yu Shengsheng quickly changed into a short-sleeved men's suit in the carriage, tied her hair up, put on a servant's hat, and drove the carriage to the west gate.
The west city gate is closest to Shuhai Academy. As long as they can pick up Jin Baobao and Zhuo Ge'er, they can immediately leave the city and meet up with the two shop assistants arranged by Manager Song in the pavilion.
Yu Shengsheng was excited and nervous. This was not his first time going out, but it was the first time he actually implemented an escape plan.
Even the wind that blows is free.
The wheels were rolling, and everything on the streets of the capital was rapidly falling backwards.
Just like the three years since I came to Beijing, they are gone and will never come back.
The Su Mansion, the Su family, the prince, the queen... and Qi Mubai, everything has nothing to do with her anymore!
Never see you again.
As I was walking forward, there was a sudden commotion ahead.
Yu Shengsheng was hesitating whether to change the route when she heard passers-by talking.
"Who is that person in front of us? He is so arrogant."
"Keep your voice down, do you want to live? They are from Nanshun Palace."
"Is it the prince who just came to Beijing not long ago?"
"That's right. They walk sideways. They walk sideways even when entering the palace, let alone this small street."
Yu Shengsheng immediately pulled the reins and looked up. Sure enough, he saw Kong Tu leading a group of people forward, but he did not see Kong Dezhao.
Despite this, she was still startled. Kong Tu was very familiar with her, and her disguise could not be concealed at all.
The guard beside Kong Tu asked, "Brother Tu, you bought a rabbit last time, what do you want to buy this time? Why do you want to buy so many strange things after arriving in the capital?"
Kong Tu rolled his eyes at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. This is what the prince meant."
Just as he was about to give him a few more words of instruction, he suddenly paused and turned his head to look behind him.
"What's wrong, Brother Rabbit?"
Kong Tu frowned slightly, holding the hilt of the knife and shook his head: "I feel like someone is watching me."
Wherever he looked, there were many pedestrians and vehicles coming and going, and a car was driving into the intersection next to him.
"Shall I go and take a look?"
Kong Tu had followed King Nanshun to the battlefield and was personally assigned by King Nanshun to be by Kong Dezhao's side. He was much more alert and perceptive than the other guards.
He looked over here and said thoughtfully, "No need. It is more important to do what the prince has asked us to do."
The prince asked them to buy the best furs to make a cloak for Miss Yu - although he didn't know why they were in such a hurry to make a cloak as it was only the beginning of autumn.
He took his men away, and Yu Shengsheng's back was soaked with sweat.
That was a close call.
After calming down and looking at the road, she realized that this road could also be used, so she immediately decided to take this road to avoid running into Kong Tu again.
After that, we arrived at the West Gate safely.
Yu Shengsheng bought a bamboo hat from a roadside grocery stall and pulled it down to cover most of her face.
She gripped the whip tightly, her palms slightly damp. She watched the people coming in and out of the city gate, and forced herself to control herself, reminding herself not to be too impatient.
There is only one step left, you must hold on.
She walked to the car window: "Grandma Wu, are you okay?"
Grandma Wu sounded good: "It's okay, I'm fine."
Grandma Wu didn't know about it, but Nanny Zhou knew. She lifted the curtain a little and looked at Yu Shengsheng through the gap.
"Miss."
Seeing the city gate not far away, Nanny Zhou knew that victory was in sight and nodded slightly.
Yu Shengsheng waited patiently. There was less than a quarter of an hour left before the appointment with Yu Baobao.
She suddenly remembered that when she was brought into the capital by the Su mansion's housekeeper, she went through the west gate of the city.
At that time, she was only immersed in the joy of being about to see her relatives and never thought of anything else. Later, she heard the maids discussing privately that she was not worthy to go through the middle door, and she was not worthy to go through the east gate, which meant purple air was coming from the east.
Only Ximen is on the decline, and she doesn't have the strength to compete with Su Zhiyi at all.
Yu Shengsheng smiled silently. Su Zhiyi could care about whatever she wanted. Anyway, she didn't miss the things and people here at all.
It was hard to wait for someone, but fortunately, Golden Leopard finally appeared.
She drove a carriage and came towards the sunlight.
Yu Shengsheng was so excited that she almost waved. It must be Zhuo Ge'er in the car. She would let him reunite with Grandma Wu soon.
That child must have suffered a lot and must miss Grandma Wu.
When they separated, Zhuo Ge'er was only five years old. He is eight years old this year and should have grown taller.
"Whoa..." Jin Baobao pulled the reins, Yu Shengsheng quickly walked up and turned to the back of the car.
Jin Baobao grabbed her and shook his head.
Yu Shengsheng's heart sank, but her smile had not faded: "What's wrong?"
At that moment, countless thoughts came to her mind. Was Zhuo Ge'er injured? Was he bullied? Or was he discovered and a fight broke out?
Jin Baobao whispered, "Miss, I waited for a long time today, but I didn't see Zhuo Ge'er in the academy."
Yu Shengsheng was surprised: "How could it be? Hasn't he been in the academy all the time?"
"Yes, when I went there two days ago, he was still there and everything was normal. But today I waited for a long time but couldn't find him. Then I pretended to be lost and went in to ask around, only to find out that he had been taken away."
Yu Shengsheng had a bad feeling: "He was picked up by someone? By whom?"
"They only said it was a man, but I don't know who he is," Jin Baobao said with guilt, "I'm sorry, Miss, I can't even handle this."
Yu Shengsheng was in a state of confusion, thinking that the biggest crisis was in the Su Mansion, but unexpectedly, something went wrong here with Zhuo Ge'er.
If it weren't for Zhuo Ge'er, Grandma Wu would definitely not have left.
If Grandma Wu doesn't leave, she can't leave either.
Are we going to fail at the last moment and have to go back like this?
No, Yu Shengsheng’s mind quickly turned and he came up with the best solution.
"Miss, you take them away, I will stay and go to investigate. I will definitely find the person, bring him out, and reunite with you."
Jin Baobao said it with absolute certainty.
Yu Shengsheng couldn't agree to it. This was her business. How could she let Baobao stay and fight alone? Besides, it was still unclear who took Zhuo Ge'er away.
"Baobao, take Grandma Wu and Nanny Zhou out of the city first and find a place to settle them down," Yu Shengsheng took out a silver ingot and gave it to her. "Take this money and use it to settle them down. Don't be reluctant to spend it."
"Miss, what about you?"
Yu Shengsheng pursed her lips: "It doesn't matter to me, as long as they are safe, I have plenty of ways, right now..."
Before he could finish his words, a sedan chair came closer from afar.
Before the person got out of the sedan, a clear and pleasant voice was heard.
"Shengsheng, where are you going?"
