Chapter 137 The New Driver
Chapter 137 The New Driver
Su Nuan grabbed Ying Shu.
Ying Shu turned around and looked at her.
"I can't leave you in his hands."
"Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to explain to the prince?"
"I don't need to explain to him. Thank you for talking to me so much tonight. Now go!"
"..."
"Don't worry, I'm not just the prince's concubine, I'm also Xia Qingyan."
Su Nuan gave Ying Shu a confident smile, but Ying Shu frowned and looked at her.
"If one day you want to leave the prince, come to me and I will take you away."
"it is good."
Su Nuan watched Ying Shu leave, and she quickly walked to Mu Yunting's carriage.
The coachman recognized her and stopped the carriage.
Su Nuan got on the carriage without waiting for the coachman to ask Mu Yunting's opinion.
Mu Yunting was surprised to see her suddenly appear.
"Why are you here?"
"Someone told me I could find you here, so here I came."
"Are you looking for me?"
Su Nuan leaned one shoulder against the carriage, closed her eyes, and murmured, "I suddenly want to drink with you."
"Your injury hasn't healed yet, so you shouldn't drink."
"I should have rested well, but I ran out!"
After a moment's silence, Mu Yunting said "OK".
The carriage rumbled forward and Su Nuan leaned against it and fell into a deep sleep.
"Your Highness, we have arrived."
When the carriage stopped in front of the Prince's Mansion, the coachman whispered something outside.
After waiting for a while and seeing no movement from the carriage, the driver said it again, this time a little louder.
There was still no response from the carriage.
The coachman lifted a corner of the curtain and saw the prince sitting upright with the sleeping Concubine Xia in his arms.
"Your Highness, would you like me to call someone to help?"
"Need not."
The coachman gently lowered the curtain, said no more words, and waited silently outside.
The night wind blew into the carriage with a cool breeze. Su Nuan shivered in her sleep and shrank into Mu Yunting's arms, as if she wanted to squeeze herself into this warm embrace.
Mu Yunting couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the eyelids of the person in his arms tremble.
He picked up the person in his arms, got off the carriage, and walked back to Duiyueju.
Chun Liu was waiting anxiously in Duiyueju. When she saw the Crown Prince coming back with her daughter in his arms, she felt relieved and hurriedly lit the lamp for the two of them.
Mu Yunting put Su Nuan on the bed and said softly, "I still have some things to deal with, you should have a good rest."
After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Su Nuan silently pulled the quilt over herself.
She pretended to be asleep just now because she didn't know how to face Mu Yunting. If he asked her something, she wouldn't be able to answer with her current state of mind.
She received too much information that night and needed to digest it slowly.
Although Ying Shu did not admit his identity, Su Nuan was sure that he was a member of Xun's family.
He said that the wooden box contained an important piece of evidence, which was related to the frame-up of Prime Minister Xun Yu. So who has this evidence now?
Mu Yunting and Lou Guang tried their best to overturn the case for the Xun family. They wanted to get the evidence, but under the circumstances that day, Mu Yunting would not stand by and watch them die, but it might not be the case for Lou Guang.
But these two people should not know the existence of this evidence, otherwise they would definitely try their best to investigate themselves and the Xia family.
Another person who wanted to get this evidence was Ying Shu, but he didn't get it either.
There is another person who is most likely to get this evidence, and that person is the murderer of Cui Shaoyuan.
Only this person knew that Cui Shaoyuan had handed the evidence to the original owner, Xia Qingyan, and had sent people to assassinate her again and again. He was also the only one who cared most about Xia Qingyan's movements, but not about her life or death.
So the evidence is most likely in this person's hands.
But how did he know that he had obtained this evidence?
When she came out of Prince Yongping's Palace, she still had a jewelry box in her hand. This small wooden box was hidden inside and could not be seen by outsiders at all, so it was known when she took the box.
That man has spies in Prince Yongping's palace.
Or that person was Prince Yongping himself.
Su Nuan was secretly shocked by coming to such a conclusion. If it was really Prince Yongping, did it mean that he had a part in framing Xun Yu?
But why did he frame Xun Yu? Wasn't he an idle prince who didn't care about state affairs?
There was one thing that Su Nuan couldn't figure out: how did Cui Shaoyuan get this evidence, and how was he related to Prince Yongping?
Only by explaining this point can it be proved that the things in the wooden box are really an important piece of evidence. Otherwise, Su Nuan doesn't believe that Cui Shaoyuan can have access to such an important thing with his identity.
"Miss, are you going to sleep like this?"
Chunliu came up happily and said, "Your Highness just came back with the young lady in his arms. I think your Highness is attracted to the young lady. Young lady, your good day has finally come."
Su Nuan sighed. She had been keeping her mind on thinking about problems, just to avoid Mu Yunting's questions. But now, with Chun Liu reminding her, she couldn't escape even if she wanted to.
"Go get me something to eat. I'm hungry."
"Miss, haven't you eaten yet? Then has His Highness not eaten either? I will prepare a food box for you. Please go and eat with His Highness."
"If you mention him again, go back to the flower garden and bring back Bi Tao instead."
Chunliu went to prepare food with a wronged look on her face.
Su Nuan lay on the bed and sighed.
The most shocking news tonight was the relationship between Mu Yunting and Lou Guang.
Before, she could use the fact that Mu Yunting was a homosexual to deceive her feelings, but now Ying Shu told her that Mu Yunting and Lou Guang were just friends and that Mu Yunting liked women, which made her feel mixed emotions.
She was sure that she liked Mu Yunting, but this man had a dead love in his heart.
No matter what, she couldn't argue with a dead person. It was meaningless and she couldn't win.
Thinking of this, she felt that Mu Yunting might as well be a gay man. In that case, at least she would lose to her special hobby, not to any person.
Su Nuan fell asleep at dawn after a sleepless night and slept until noon.
If General Xia hadn't sent someone to invite her back to the general's mansion, she might have slept until the afternoon.
"Did something happen in the General's Mansion? Why is Dad so anxious for me to go back?"
Su Nuan asked the servant who came to deliver the message.
"I don't know, General, please return home quickly, young lady."
It seems like this is an urgent matter!
Su Nuan didn't dare to delay, and after a simple wash, she took Chun Liu back to the general's mansion.
The carriage was waiting at the gate, and the driver was a new one. Su Nuan felt that he looked familiar at first glance, but when she looked closely, she was almost shocked.
The driver was none other than Mu Yunting's secret guard Falcon.
At this moment, Falcon was looking at Su Nuan with resentful eyes.
Is this a change from secret guards to open guards, and from surveillance to supervision?
Su Nuan walked over and patted Falcon on the shoulder, saying seriously: "It's not easy to be my coachman. Two of them have died. You should be careful!"
