Chapter 1044 Understanding
The next day, Qiu Bi went to work and arrived at Yuexi Mansion on time.
Ning Yunxi got up early and looked through the portraits and books sent by Xie Yuchen, choosing the right person to make her a beautiful woman.
Qiu Bi walked over and sat next to the princess.
"This man is good, handsome and elegant, very suitable to be the anchor of Yirenqingcheng."
Ning Yunxi held the pen for too long, and her hands trembled with fatigue.
"I think he's good too. I was thinking of putting him on the interview list."
Noticing the subtle changes in the princess, Qiu Bi immediately made a suggestion.
"Princess, you have worked hard to write. Let me do it for you."
Ning Yunxi happily handed over the brush.
"Okay, here you go."
Qiu Bi took the brush, wrote gracefully, and asked questions casually.
"Yesterday, the princess said she wanted to persuade Madam Mei to stop targeting Ning Cangmo. Did she succeed?"
Seeing that there was not much ink left, Ning Yunxi picked up the inkstone, dropped an ink stick in it, and poured water to grind the ink.
"It was late yesterday, so I didn't go to look for her."
"She should be awake by now. Later, have someone prepare a carriage to take me back to Ning Mansion."
Qiu Bi was slightly startled.
"Princess, don't you know? Madam Mei is not in Ning Mansion."
"Yesterday, Lord Xu sent a servant to pick up his wife from my house."
Ning Yunxi's beautiful face suddenly lost its color.
"A dispatch from Lord Xu?"
"There's something strange about this."
Qiu Bi was puzzled.
"What's so strange about that?"
Ning Yunxi put down the ink stick, quickly got up from his seat, took off his coat and put it on quickly.
"I remember you said that Fifth Sister's stay at Gao Mansion was a last-minute decision."
"Then how did Lord Xu know the whereabouts of the fifth sister?"
Qiu Bi put down his pen and left his seat, looking somewhat flustered.
"Princess, is your intention that Madam might be in danger?"
"Who murdered my lady?"
"Is it Ning Cangmo?"
Ning Yunxi was so worried that she was on edge.
"We'll talk later. Let's go make sure Fifth Sister is safe first."
"Come here, prepare the horses."
Qiu Bi followed closely behind.
"I will go with you."
The master and his two servants, each riding a fast horse, took a shortcut and headed straight to Xu's house.
Ning Yunxi couldn't believe what the servant at the door said, that Madam Mei was in Yiliju. She was still nervous, anxious and worried.
Only after seeing with her own eyes that her fifth sister was fine at Yiliju did Ning Yunxi feel relieved.
"As long as you're okay."
Ning Jiewei held her sister with one hand and Mr. Gao with the other, and pulled them to sit together.
"What can I do? Do you think I'm looking down on you, sister?"
"With Ning Cangmo's tricks, you're dreaming of hurting me."
"Don't worry, sister. Yesterday, it was indeed my father-in-law who called me back to discuss family matters with me."
"He was so anxious that he took me away before I even woke up. When I woke up and looked around, I found that Gao's house was not there. I was so scared that I almost fell ill."
"Having said that, I have to say that my sister is lucky. She doesn't have to worry about her in-laws."
"Not long after Prince Dijin was born, Emperor Muzong and Empress Zhenyu passed away..."
Hearing that something was wrong, Ning Yunxi quickly reached out and covered her sister's mouth.
"Fifth sister, don't speak nonsense."
"How can you casually discuss the late emperor and the late empress? It's not proper."
Ning Jiewei brushed down her sister's hand, held her hand, and pouted proudly.
"I'm a straightforward person. I say what I think."
"The great Emperor Yan and Empress Yan, who govern the whole world, will not be so petty as to quibble with a little woman like me."
Ning Yunxi glanced at him sideways, still doting.
"He loves to talk."
Ning Jiewei's face was filled with emotion.
"Have you two had breakfast? I'll treat you."
Ning Yunxi's almond-shaped eyes were filled with warmth.
"We used it."
"Eat it yourself."
"You eat, I'll tell you something."
Ning Jiewei picked up a piece of cake with chopsticks and fed it to her sister.
"No need to talk about it."
"I understand what my sister wants to say."
"Master Gao accidentally let it slip that you knew my plan and were worried that I couldn't defeat Ning Cangmo, so you wanted to persuade me to give up the plan."
"Is it?"
"When I saw you rushing over here, repeatedly asking if Ning Cangmo had any plans to harm me, I guessed something had happened and understood what was on my mind."
"Sister is too worried."
Ning Yunxi was helpless.
"Look at you, you're not listening again. I'm just concerned, not malicious."
Ning Jiewei fed her another piece of cake.
"I understand, sister, you only mean well."
"Sister, please be patient and listen to me."
"This morning, I received news that Ning Cangmo left Beijing in a hurry, as if he had something urgent to do."
"Even if I wanted to fight him, I couldn't find him. How could I plot, and how could I be harmed?"
Ning Yunxi was surprised and stopped chewing.
"He left Beijing? And in such a hurry?"
"It's not because of..."
Her words stopped abruptly. Ning Jiewei understood and agreed deeply.
"Sister, you are right."
"Don't worry about me for now, go find a way to stop him."
Hearing that the situation was not good, Qiu Bi couldn't help but become nervous.
Ning Yunxi swallowed the pastry in her mouth.
"Well, I'll go and tell my brother."
She walked out quickly, but after taking two steps, she stopped, turned around and gave a warning.
"Don't let your guard down. Be extremely vigilant. He may pretend to leave the capital and return secretly to catch you off guard."
"Remember, no matter what tricks he plays, ignore them and don't leave the Xu Mansion."
Ning Jiewei was perfunctory.
"Okay, okay, remember this."
Emperor Jin's Palace.
Lin Mu took his turn to rest, and went to the palace in the morning to ask Xiao Xiangshuo to teach him swordsmanship.
Yan Yu has no court affairs for the time being, and has been staying in the laboratory, researching medicine to treat Gu Mengzhen's old illness and thinking about how to heal Ning Yunxi's pain.
Ning Yunxi and his two subordinates entered the room without informing anyone.
Seeing that he was motionless, as if in space, Ning Yunxi walked closer and called out.
"Brother."
Hearing some movement outside the space, Yan Yu stopped what he was doing and left the medical space.
"Ok?"
Qiu Bi saluted.
"May Your Majesty be well and at peace."
Yan Yu supported him and gestured for him to take a seat.
"what's up?"
Ning Yunxi's expression is concise and to the point.
"My brother left Beijing."
"The purpose is, firstly, to prevent my uncle from tracking down the Crown Prince and bring him back; secondly, to gather evidence to prove to the Emperor that my uncle is Fang Zhixuan, who caused his death in the enemy camp."
Yan Yu's heart was shocked and his expression became solemn.
"Have the Emperor's people really learned that we are looking for our eldest brother?"
Ning Yunxi was filled with worry and felt anxious.
"The Emperor's people may not all know, but my brother must have seen through everything, so he took action."
"Prince Zhengxian is in the hands of the Emperor. My brother may know where he is."
"We are unable to protect His Highness, and we absolutely cannot allow my brother to bypass the Emperor and take ruthless action against the Crown Prince."
Yan Yu was worried and responded hastily.
"Lin Mu, he's at my house. I'll call him right now. Go as fast as you can and bring Ning Cangmo back."
Seeing him stand up, Ning Yunxi stretched out her arms to stop him.
"Why do you have to do this? My brother is so anxious that he is confused."
"You are Lord Yan, Xunyou, issue an imperial decree and announce to the world that you are urgently recalling your beloved minister. He dare not refuse to return."
Yan Yu realized it later and smiled a little awkwardly.
"Oh, yes, yes, I am Master Yan."
"Look, what reason can I find to recall him that would be appropriate?"
Ning Yunxi made a suggestion.
"I think……"
