Chapter 555 The Feast at Hongmen
These are people who work in the palace; they are all incredibly clever and insightful.
They knew very well what was going to happen in the palace today.
They understood perfectly well why Consort Liu had sent people to fetch Su Jingshu and the others to the palace.
Therefore, even if these palace servants were angry, they could only endure it.
They all knew that nothing could go wrong before Princess Ning and her daughter entered the palace. If the two grandmothers refused to enter, they would be the ones in trouble.
Fortunately, Ningbao and her daughter knew that these palace servants were only acting under orders and did not make things difficult for them.
They saw Gu Yunrou as soon as they entered the palace.
"Aunt Gu, they didn't hurt you, did they?"
Gu Yunrou and Shen Muyang have now moved out of the Marquis of Yongyi's residence.
Shen Muyang went to court, leaving only Gu Yunrou as the mistress of the mansion.
What Ning Bao didn't know was that Shen Muyang hadn't gone to court; instead, he had left the capital early that morning with a secret imperial edict.
.........................
In Ning Bao's eyes, Gu Yunrou's personality was always easy to bully.
Gu Yunrou shook her head, looked around, and lowered her voice.
"without.
They brought us in just to control Mu Yang and the others.
They won't make things difficult for us until things are settled.
I just checked, and the family members of officials of the fourth rank or above are all there.
It seems they have something big planned for today.
Or perhaps not today, but maybe tomorrow.
Judging from the situation, we probably won't be able to leave the palace today.
But it's okay, we all feel much more at ease now.
I think we should play in the palace for a while first, and if things go wrong, we can use Ningbao's invisibility talisman to escape.
We can't stay here as hostages.
Meanwhile, the carriage that had just left the Su family's house encountered an accident halfway there.
Su Yuting is the second prince's fiancée. If Consort Liu and others want to do something, they will definitely try to get the families of these adult princes under their control first.
Although the second prince had fallen out of favor for many years, the emperor released him at this crucial moment.
As the legitimate son of the empress, he should have been a strong contender for the throne, even though it seems that the second prince has no power in the court now.
However, Consort Liu and Liu Xuenian dared not underestimate him at all, after all, the Gu family and the old Prime Minister Gu had a great influence in the court back then.
As the grandson of Prime Minister Gu and the son of the Empress, the Second Prince still had the support of many veteran officials.
Currently in the capital, the only people who can be related to the Second Prince by blood, besides the royal family, are Gu Yunrou and the Second Prince's newly appointed fiancée, Su Yuting.
It is extremely important to control the female relatives of the Second Prince's Su family.
The number of palace servants sent to pick them up was significantly more than that of other residences.
Everyone here is intelligent, and they are all very clear about the situation in the capital these past few days.
Looking at the row of palace servants following outside the carriage, Su Yuting knew that Consort Liu must be planning something by inviting them into the palace today.
And she, as the second prince's fiancée, was definitely there to restrain and control him.
Su Yuting didn't want to affect the Second Prince's plans, so she planned to jump out of the carriage and escape before entering the palace.
After Su Yuting and Ning Bao met, the two girls' relationship progressed rapidly because their personalities were quite compatible.
Ning Bao gave Su Yuting a lot of talismans, including lightning-attracting talismans, invisibility talismans, and storage talismans...
Just as Su Yuting took out the invisibility talisman and was about to use it, a commotion came from outside the carriage.
Su Yuting lifted the carriage curtain and peeked out. She saw a wild horse charging towards them, while someone shouted at them, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
The palace servants who were originally surrounding the carriage were now also drawn to the horse and reflexively scattered in all directions.
