Lu Ze said, "Lingling isn't alone. Baoshuang and Baoxue will take care of her along the way."
Princess Pingrou frowned and said, "Baoshuang and Baoxue are still just a child. How can they take care of Lingling? A three-year-old child cries for her parents when she can't see them. How can you two be so cruel?"
Lu Ze explained, "Your Majesty has been poisoned by opium in Shengjing City. I think the incident with Baozhu being framed won't end here. It would be safer for Lingling to go to North City."
Qi Yuning said, "As soon as the wedding is over, I will rush to North City to accompany Lingling."
Princess Pingrou said, "Why don't you two discuss this with me? Ouch."
Princess Pingrou covered her heart and said, "You are deliberately not letting me live a peaceful life. It's already dark now, and I don't know if baby Lingling is crying? Is she missing her parents? Is she eating well..."
Princess Pingrou was very worried. When she thought of the pitiful little Lingling alone, she wanted to wipe away her tears.
Prince Consort Lu pointed at Lu Ze and said, "Is there anyone who acts like a father like you? Pingrou, don't worry too much. Baoshuang and Baoxue are here, and Lingling still has a relative."
Princess Pingrou was filled with worry and anxiety, so she said, "Well, tomorrow, after Baozhu is released from prison, I will rush to North City. I wonder if I can catch up with Lingling. With her grandparents around, she won't be so scared."
Seeing this, Qi Yuning said, "Your Highness, this is too much trouble for you."
Princess Pingrou said, "Lingling is my precious baby! What's the point of saying it's a bother or not?"
Prince Consort Lu said, "But if you and I go to North City, won't we be unable to see our son get married?"
Princess Pingrou said, "Does it matter if Lingling is with me when my son gets married? If I wasn't afraid of Baozhu getting jealous, I would have gone to find Lingling right now. Are there any parents like you two? Lingling is so young, you really are..."
Lu Ze said, "I know I was wrong. The imperial physician told you not to get angry or anxious. You should rest well."
Princess Pingrou covered her chest and said, "Rest? Lingling is out here alone, I don't know how she'll get enough food and clothing. Rest? How can I rest properly?"
Qi Yuning and Lu Ze looked at each other, not daring to say anything more. Indeed, they didn't know if Lingling would cry and look for her parents.
Without Xiao Lingling's sweet cries in his ears, Qi Yuning missed her terribly.
…
The next morning.
Qin Yuli went to the East Palace to look for the prince before dawn.
Zhao Chong heard Qin Yuli's story and frowned unwillingly, "At this point, you can't back down."
"Uncle Crown Prince, Qi Yuning has always been fearless. She has the imperial seal and the iron certificate in her hand, so I think she is serious." Qin Yuli looked at Zhao Chong and said, "Uncle, uncle Crown Prince, you can't just watch me being killed by Qi Yuning..."
Zhao Chong frowned, shook his hands, and said to his confidant: "The real murderer is someone else. It was just because of the dark sky that everyone made a mistake. Go and release Lu Baozhu."
The trusted subordinate replied, "Yes."
Qin Yuli smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle."
Zhao Chong looked at the pale Qin Yuli and said to her, "You have been fighting with Qi Yuning for so many years. You probably don't want Qi Yuning to marry Lu Ze smoothly, right?"
Qin Yuli covered her wound and asked, "What other plans does my cousin have?"
Zhao Chong leaned close to Qin Yuli's ear and whispered.
…
Outside the prison.
Qi Yuning accompanied Princess Pingrou to pick up Lu Baozhu from prison early in the morning.
When Lu Baozhu saw the people outside the prison, she threw herself into Princess Pingrou's arms and said, "Mother."
Princess Pingrou hugged Lu Baozhu and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Go back and jump over the fire basin to get rid of the bad luck. It's okay."
Lu Baozhu gritted her teeth and said, "It's not all over yet. Qin Yuli framed me like this, I will never forgive her! I'm going to go and settle the score with her right now!"
Seeing Lu Baozhu leaving in a hurry, Qi Yuning grabbed Lu Baozhu's arm and asked, "Do you still want to go to jail?"
Lu Baozhu snorted softly, "I'll kill Qin Yuli, and I'll be happy even if I have to spend ten or twenty years in prison!"
Qi Yuning glared at Lu Baozhu and said, "That's easy for you to say. You can go to jail for ten or twenty years, but what about your parents? What about your Lu family's reputation? How old are you to act so impulsively?"
Lu Baozhu looked at Qi Yuning and said, "What gives you the right to teach me a lesson?"
Qi Yuning said: "I am your sister-in-law, I am qualified to teach you a lesson."
Lu Baozhu didn't know what to say for a moment, so she could only whisper, "I shouldn't have let you be my sister-in-law."
Pingrou held Lu Baozhu's hand and said, "Baozhu, be quiet. Dad and Mom have to go out of town for something. Listen to your brother and sister-in-law these days!"
Lu Baozhu looked at Pingrou and said, "Mom, where are you and Dad going? I want to go with you."
Princess Pingrou smiled and said, "Your brother's wedding is coming soon, so you have to stay and arrange your brother's wedding!"
Lu Baozhu was curious and asked, "Brother, your wedding is coming up soon, why are you still going out of town?"
Princess Pingrou and Prince Consort Lu did not tell Lu Baozhu the truth. They just said, "Just be obedient. Go back and jump over the fire basin to get rid of the bad luck!"
Lu Baozhu returned home first, stepped over the brazier and dipped her hands in the grapefruit water, then went back to her room to wash up. When she went out, she heard that Princess Pingrou and Prince Consort Lu had already left Shengjing City.
Lu Baozhu snorted, "You just go out to play by yourself without taking me with you!"
Lu Baozhu turned around and went to Prince Qi's Mansion next door. She had not copied any of the ten copies of the Book of Rites yet, so she did not dare to trespass again. She obediently let the doorman in to report in.
When Qi Yuning heard Lichun come to report that Princess Baozhu wanted to see her, she actually found it strange. She was used to Lu Baozhu's intrusions, so her politeness was really uncomfortable.
