"Sister... was she arrested? Shen Jingyi wants to use my sister to threaten me, huh?" Seeing that Wu Qi remained silent for many times, Ning Mu started to guess directly.
"Chen Jingyi intends to make the princess the queen."
Wu Qi looked at Ning Mu, whose emotions were becoming increasingly out of control, and finally told the truth.
Ning Mu froze, his face solemn and his eyes blank: "Really?"
Ning Mu didn't seem to believe that Shen Jingyi would let Ning Wan go so easily.
"No!" Ning Mu suddenly shouted.
He looked at Wu Qi who was still lying on the ground and picked him up again in a bad mood.
Even if Shen Jingyi really wanted to make Ajie the queen, he must have done so with the intention of torturing her.
"What else have you lied to me about?"
Ning Mu obviously did not hold back his strength this time. As expected, Wu Qi, who did not dare to attack Ning Mu, began to cough lightly.
Seeing Wu Qi struggling to breathe, Ning Mu relaxed a little, but her eyes remained fierce: "Speak, don't lie to me!"
Wu Qi: "...Chen Jingyi brought the princess back to the palace... and took something. I heard it was... the phoenix gold hairpin that the late emperor left for the princess..."
Wu Qi breathed hard and spoke the news in the letter in a halting manner.
After hearing about the Phoenix Hairpin, Ning Mu's hand loosened uncontrollably.
Only then was Wu Qi able to breathe smoothly.
The Phoenix Golden Hairpin, a talisman that my father ordered to be made for my sister, can command the three armies.
It can also turn the tiger talisman into a piece of scrap metal.
So, without him, sister can't even protect her own trump card?
Ning Mu's heart became more and more anxious, "Did Shen Jingyi get it?"
After hearing Ning Mu's anxious voice, Wu Qi felt unusually happy.
Things have their priorities, and in Ning Mu's heart, national affairs are ultimately more important than love.
Wu Qi naturally thought that Ning Mu was so worried because he was afraid that Shen Jingyi would get the Phoenix Hairpin and lose control of the army.
"Not yet." Wu Qi replied with some relief.
Ning Mu took a small step back, and his mood obviously and quickly calmed down.
"Not yet, not yet..."
Ning Mu's brows knitted tightly together, "No, we have to hurry."
My sister will always be a danger in Shen Jingyi's hands.
"Your Majesty is absolutely right. If Shen Jingyi gets the Phoenix Hairpin, the restoration of the country will be..."
Wu Qi was considering that the longer the time dragged on, the greater the possibility that Shen Jingyi would obtain the Phoenix Hairpin, and the smaller the possibility that they would be able to restore their country.
But Ning Mu was afraid that the longer the time dragged on, the greater the danger Ning Wan would be in.
For a moment, the goals of the two people were highly integrated.
…
On the other side, Ning Wan was brought back to the palace by Shen Jingyi and placed in another palace, which could also be said to be a cold palace.
Ning Wan sat in the courtyard, propping up her face, holding a tattered book. On the cover were two words blurred with ink: "Female Rings".
In fact, Ning Wan was reading ancient vernacular novels with the help of Xiao Qi.
Xiaoju was almost going crazy with anxiety.
She snatched the book from Ning Wan's hand, her brow furrowed. "Your Highness, it's already this late, why are you still reading this?"
Close the book and put it aside.
Ning Wan barely regained consciousness, looked up at Xiaoju, who was eager to grab her and run away, and said helplessly:
"How can you not see it?"
Seeing her master so calm, Xiaoju became even more anxious.
The master has always done things as he pleases, but now he has concerns.
"Princess, let's run away!" Xiaoju suddenly knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face. "He clearly wanted to humiliate you, so he deliberately sent you to this cold palace and forced you to read these books..."
Xiaoju became more and more sad as she spoke, as if Ning Wan had contracted an acute illness and would soon pass away.
"Xiao Ju, this is the palace. How can you escape just like that?"
Ning Wan casually tapped Xiaoju's forehead, not taking it seriously, and asked Xiaoju to get up.
But Xiaoju became more resolute in her thoughts, "Princess, these guards in the palace are all from Anping. Moreover, you have the Phoenix Hairpin with you, so they dare not stop you..."
"That's enough, Kiku!"
Xiaoju was interrupted by Ning Wan before she could finish her words.
After seeing Ning Wan's expression change, Xiaoju's expression darkened visibly, and her grievance was beyond words.
"Xiao Ju, do you really think I can protect you after I take out the Phoenix Hairpin?"
“If I can’t protect it, and this golden hairpin falls into Shen Jingyi’s hands, how can A Mu defeat him?”
After asking the two questions, Xiaoju already had the answer in her mind.
"But Princess..."
Ning Wan tapped her hand on the table. "Okay, there's no such thing as too much. I'm hungry. Xiaoju, can you prepare some food?"
Xiaoju found it difficult to describe her emotions at the moment. She only knew that the princess in front of her was really different from before.
Yes, there is no overnight hatred between blood relatives. I am really confused.
Xiaoju nodded with difficulty and stepped back.
Ning Wan picked up the hypocritical notebook again, read it carefully, and smiled from time to time.
But before Ning Wan could take a closer look for long, another uninvited guest came into the courtyard.
"What are you doing here?" Ning Wan said in a bad tone, but deliberately avoided eye contact with Shen Jingyi.
Shen Jingyi closed the book in his hand, and only two words were faintly visible on the cover: "Female Ring".
Shen Jingyi: "The princess is really in a good mood."
The sarcastic tone made Ning Wan snort for no reason, "Of course, he can't compare to the Prince Consort's high spirits. He still has the leisure to care about what book this princess reads."
Shen Jingyi kneaded the tattered book in his hand, opened it again, and said as he read: "Since the princess likes it, I'll ask someone to send some new ones over..." What can he learn from just this half book.
As he was talking, Shen Jingyi suddenly became speechless.
He looked at the book in his hand with some shock, and saw some suggestive illustrations on it.
Shen Jingyi raised his eyes with difficulty and looked at Ning Wan, whose expression remained unchanged. He couldn't say the remaining half sentence in his mouth.
"Really? Then I'll have to trouble your Highness the Prince Consort." Ning Wan responded seriously, but there was a hint of teasing in her eyes.
"This princess has been really bored these days, so I would like to thank you in advance for your kindness."
Ning Wan had a smile on her face, and her heart was already filled with joy.
It's just because Shen Jingyi's expression now looks like a dumb person eating Coptis chinensis.
But before Ning Wan could be happy for too long, Shen Jingyi casually threw the book in front of him away.
Or the kind that turns to ash.
"See what's interesting. If you really want to learn, Princess, I can teach you myself." As he said this, he leaned down.
The distance between the two faces was rapidly closing.
Ning Wan subconsciously leaned back, and her whole body suddenly lost support and fell backwards.
At the critical moment, Shen Jingyi pinched Ning Wan's waist and asked, "Princess, are you unwilling?"
