"What, you have nothing to say? Xiao Mu, I'm letting it go for the sake of all the years you've been with me. If you tell the truth, I won't hold it against you, but from now on you'll serve outside. If you don't tell the truth, then don't blame me for not considering our past relationship." Madam Su looked at Xiao Mu with despair.
"Princess, what's wrong? Why don't you trust Xiao Mu anymore?" Xiao Mu looked at Su Shi in disbelief.
"You've done these things behind my back, how can I trust you again?" Su asked.
“Everything I did was for the Princess. The Consort is so good to the Princess, and she was worried that after Granny Liu returned to the palace, she would also have to go to the Northwest battlefield with the Prince. She was worried that the Princess would be harmed,” Xiao Mu said.
"Is she worried that I'll be targeted, or is she planning to assassinate me?" Su asked.
Xiao Mu stared at Madam Su in disbelief. She couldn't understand why Madam Su had suddenly become so trusting and unguarded around Gao Shi the moment she appeared. The concubine and the princess had always been on good terms, yet she was immediately distrusted.
"Princess, why do you only believe Princess Gao's words and not anyone else's?" Xiao Mu said.
Su felt dizzy and said, "You are not allowed to step out of this door without my permission."
After saying that, Madam Su turned and left, and Xiao Mu's room door was locked from the inside by two maids.
Meanwhile, Madam Gao, supporting Yin'er's hand, returned to Langyue Pavilion.
“Princess, this time Princess Su has lost her right-hand woman. Xiao Mu has always been her most trusted maid. After Princess Su’s instigation, it seems that Princess Su no longer trusts her at all,” Yin’er said.
"Hmm, that little shepherd actually sent the quilt I made to Ulanara. How despicable." Gao frowned.
"Princess, why don't you make another one and send it over?" Yin'er said.
“No, where are we going to get those reed fluffs now? Besides, Yongzhang is already full-term, and his breathing ability is strong enough that the blankets won’t be effective anymore,” Gao said.
"What can we do then? Su Gege has already been granted the title. It's just that the official name hasn't been officially issued yet," Yin'er said.
“Therefore, we cannot promote her.” A cold glint flashed in Gao’s eyes as she said.
“Princess, the Prince is about to leave. As long as the Princess supports you, Princess Su may never have imagined this,” Yin’er said.
"So, with the slightest carelessness, even a small child can easily lose their life. For example, make sure the window grilles are closed properly," Gao said.
The deep sisterly bond that once existed between Gao and her has completely vanished; she is unaware that she has lost what was once the most beautiful emotion.
Xueying was writing a letter inside her room. Still worried, she decided to write a letter of greeting to Lanqin, expressing her concerns for Su Gege and requesting Lanqin's help.
Qin was able to continue sending Granny Liu to take care of Yongzhang.
Lanqin received Xueying's greetings on the third day after Hongli and Xueying set off.
Granny Liu arrived at Hongli's residence again with her luggage. When Madam Su saw Granny Liu come again, she was both surprised and delighted. She knew that this must be because her mother-in-law was worried about Yongzhang.
“Princess Su, this old servant was sent by Her Majesty.” Granny Liu went straight to the point. “The Consort was worried and specially wrote a letter of greeting to Her Majesty, and sent this old servant.”
Ms. Su was initially very happy, but after hearing the second half of her sentence, her happiness instantly turned into helplessness.
