She could understand Jin Mudan's feelings; she too had become pregnant with Lu Ziqian's child at the wrong time.
She overcame numerous difficulties and endured great hardships to give birth to two children.
She was luckier than Jin Mudan; even without her child, she still had her parents, brother and sister-in-law, and nephews and nieces.
Peony was all alone; she needed a family member.
After hesitating for a long time, Su Yujiao finally made up her mind: "Okay, I'll help you."
"If you insist on having this child, then we'll have to change course."
“You can’t stay in the Great Ming Kingdom anymore. No matter where you hide, Chu Qinghe will find you.”
Su Yujiao thought for a moment and said, "I'll send someone to take you to the Southern Frontier Kingdom. There will be people there to take care of you, and Chu Qinghe's reach won't be that far."
Unfortunately, Nan Sheng didn't leave many people for her, and those two bodyguards were only responsible for her safety and didn't care about anything else.
It seems the only option is to go to Lu Ziqian and ask him to send someone to escort Mudan to the Southern Frontier Kingdom.
"Southern Frontier Kingdom?"
"Well, I still have some influence in the Southern Frontier Kingdom. Asking them to protect one person is not an unreasonable request; it's quite easy."
"You get some rest. I'm going to see Lu Ziqian; we still need his help with this."
"I don't feel comfortable letting someone else escort me."
Jin Mudan looked guilty: "Jiaojiao, don't go looking for him. I don't want you to have anything to do with him again because of me. You finally got a divorce from him."
What if he takes the opportunity to make unreasonable demands on you?
"I'll just hire a security escort agency to get me there; I'm not short of money anyway."
Su Yujiao didn't trust the escort agency's capabilities; she still felt more at ease with the Lu family's secret guards.
"Don't worry, he won't make any unreasonable demands on me."
"My relationship with him is no longer what it used to be."
“I never owe him anything; on the contrary, he owes me. I feel perfectly justified in using what he uses.”
When Lu Ziqian learned that Jin Mudan was pregnant with Mo Lingchen's child and insisted on giving birth, he had no choice but to take it seriously.
He knew Jin Mudan's place in Su Yujiao's heart; if something happened to Jin Mudan, Yujiao would be heartbroken.
But Princess Qinghe has a relentless and unforgiving personality.
"This matter cannot be delayed. Send her away today. Go back and make preparations."
Su Yujiao nodded. She knew how terrifying imperial power was. It was easier for a princess to kill someone than to crush an ant, and she wouldn't have to bear any legal responsibility.
"I'll go back and prepare right away."
After Su Yujiao returned, she packed a few clothes for her and sewed a lot of gold thread and gold beads on the collar and cuffs, just in case.
They also prepared some dry food and self-defense tools for her, such as a lighter, flashlight, dagger, stun gun, rope and pepper spray.
"Wear this vest underneath and never take it off, no matter what."
"And put on this helmet too, and then put on a cap over it, so no one will think it's weird."
“I also carry these medications with me at all times. They can be life-saving in critical moments. I have written the usage, dosage and efficacy on the box.”
"Oh, take a few more of these thermos flasks with you. Don't drink river water on the way; it's not clean."
Jin Mudan looked at the table full of things she had never seen before, feeling both curious and fascinated, touching this and that.
"Where did you get all of these?"
"Don't worry about that, they're all very useful and good stuff."
"The lighter is like our tinderbox; you just press it and it will light."
Su Yujiao pressed down gently, and blue-yellow flames shot out.
Jin Mudan's eyes widened in astonishment.
"It's for flashlight illumination. This red button turns the light on when you press it once, and turns it off when you press it again."
"Wow, it really lights up! It's amazing!"
"This flashlight is much brighter than a candle."
Does this thing need more lamp oil, or can it be used indefinitely?
"No need for lamp oil, use batteries. I've prepared several batteries for you."
Su Yujiao then taught her how to change the battery, which Jin Mudan learned easily, as it wasn't difficult.
"This is a foldable dagger, which is convenient for self-defense or cutting."
I won't go into too much detail about the rope.
"You must carry a stun gun with you at all times. I'll teach you how to use it."
"Don't underestimate its power. It can knock down a cow. When Lu Ziqian arrives, I'll give you a demonstration."
"This spray is also for self-defense, and it has the same effect as poison powder and miasma."
"If you're surrounded by bad guys, spray them in the eyes."
"Tiger, Stone, come in here for a moment."
Several teenagers rushed to the door, and Su Yujiao told Jin Mudan to cover her mouth and nose and spray something at the door.
Even though they were far away, she had the children cover their eyes beforehand, but the moment the spray came out, the children couldn't help but cough violently, feeling as if they had been choked by chili peppers.
"Madam, what...what is this?"
"It's alright, it'll be fine in a bit, it's non-toxic, you can go now."
Tiger covered his mouth and nose and quickly fled.
Jin Mudan was completely dumbfounded. What kind of magical objects were these? Each one was more amazing than the last.
"This protective suit must be worn close to the skin. This vest is impervious to knives and bullets, and is waterproof and fireproof."
As Su Yujiao spoke, she tried to stab and slash with the dagger, but it couldn't damage her.
"This helmet is to protect the head from being shot in the dark."
Su Yujiao explained in detail the uses and methods of everything on the table.
Jin Mudan suddenly hugged her and cried. Each of these things was a treasure on its own, yet Jiaojiao had given them all to her at once.
It was all so that she could reach the Southern Frontier Kingdom safely!
This debt of gratitude is something she can never repay in her lifetime.
"Don't cry! Don't be afraid! I'll come back to you after the crisis is over."
"Crisis over?"
Jin Mudan smiled bitterly. As long as Chu Qinghe didn't die, her crisis would never be over.
Su Yujiao didn't tell her that she stayed behind to deal with Chu Zhongyuan, and that once Chu Zhongyuan fell from power, Princess Qinghe would be nothing.
Once she loses her princess status, let's see how arrogant and domineering she is, how she treats human life so lightly.
In fact, Princess Qinghe's fate in the original novel was also tragic; she poisoned Mudan because she loved Mo Lingchen.
After Mudan's tragic death, Mo Lingchen seemed to treat her very well, but in reality, he poisoned her every day. Chu Qinghe died a miserable death, but the cause of her illness could not be found.
Anyway, Chu Qinghe can't be arrogant forever. One day, she will bring Peony back openly and legitimately.
She might not return to the capital, but she certainly wouldn't stay in the Southern Frontier Kingdom forever; the Great Ming Kingdom was her true home.
"That day will come; it's just a matter of time."
"I'll bring you back then, and we'll live together."
"Um."
"Hurry up and put on your protective vests, Lu Ziqian and the others should be here soon."
"good."
"Jiaojiao, can I ask you for one more thing?"
Su Yujiao guessed what she wanted to do and asked directly, "You want me to remind Mo Lingchen?"
