"Brother Xuanyuan, Brother Six, listen to me. With these medicines, it is not a problem to deal with those guards. Our biggest enemy is actually that black-robed military advisor."
Su Jiu looked at the two of them, "I have a strong premonition that he came here just for me. The reason why he chose Dongmeng is because of the relationship between the fourth sister and me. He will definitely show up tomorrow, but if that person's
If our strength is really what you said, Brother Xuanyuan, then it is impossible for all of us here to win together, and there is even a high probability that the whole army will be annihilated tomorrow."
Su Rongan and Xuanyuan Che were both silent.
Jiu'er is right, if you don't lure the man in black robe away, no matter how many preparations you make tomorrow, you will just end up killing someone else.
"So, Brother Xuanyuan and Brother Six, letting me lure that person away is the only way for us to win, and you don't have to worry about me. Although that person's target is me, the real purpose is not me."
Su Jiu lowered her eyes and touched the silver bracelet on her wrist unconsciously, wondering what she was thinking.
"The purpose...isn't you?"
Su Rongan was a little confused.
For his brain, this thing was too brain-burning, and now he felt faintly confused.
Xuanyuan Che looked deeply at Su Jiu and did not ask any further questions.
The whole room fell into silence.
I don't know how long it took before Xuanyuan Che's voice sounded in the room, "Okay! Jiu'er, I agree with your plan, but you have to ensure safety!"
"I don't agree! I still don't agree!" Su Rongan jumped. In his opinion, no matter how Jiu'er promised, according to what Xuanyuan Che said before, they all almost failed to escape from the men in black robes, and only Jiu'er could
How could my son cope with it alone?
"Xuanyuan Che, let me tell you, I want to save Fourth Sister, but you can't let Jiu'er die in vain!"
Don't wonder what Xuanyuan Che is thinking about.
In the end, what he cared about most was not Su Jingqin. Jiu'er and he were just brother-in-law and sister-in-law, and they had only met each other a few times, so it was impossible to say how deep their relationship was.
Xuanyuan Che just wants to exchange Jiu'er's life for Su Jingqin's life, and he will never agree to this!
"What do you mean?"
Xuanyuan Che's face turned cold.
"It's just what you think in your heart, what? Does it make sense to have a loud voice and a bad face?"
Su Rong'an was not to be outdone. Before leaving, he promised his fifth brother that he would never let Jiu'er take risks and would protect Jiu'er well and bring her back safely.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Su Jiu slammed the table. The bottles and jars on the table were knocked down and rolled to the ground. Fortunately, the subordinates behind Xuanyuan Che hurriedly held them up.
Didn't let these things fall to the ground.
When the masters quarrel and the subordinates suffer, they should just act as background.
"Stop arguing, the matter is settled like this. I will take action tonight. As for how to lure the man in black robe away, I leave it to you, Brother Xuanyuan."
The person who understands Dongmeng best is undoubtedly Xuanyuan Che.
Unlike the capital city, Dongmengwang District is actually not very big. It is just like a modern municipality, divided into a main city and various urban districts.
The place where the fourth sister went to offer incense after leaving the main city was the West District Temple.
Then what she has to do is lead the man in black robe to the East District or further, or even out of the city. Anyway, the further away the better.
Seeing that Su Jiu ignored her, Su Rongan moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but Su Jiu seemed to feel it and glared at her, and Su Rongan immediately shut up.
Okay, okay, the big girl can't help her brother, not to mention that he can't beat Jiu'er now, and the medicine is not as powerful as Jiu'er. Su Rongan, who suddenly felt that he was useless, lowered his head in dejection, he felt sorry for the fifth brother.
The discussion between several people lasted until almost dawn.
"Brother Xuanyuan, I understand. I will pay attention to safety. It's almost time now. Please send someone to take me to see Fourth Sister."
Xuanyuan Che looked deeply at Su Jiu, raised his hand and took her into his arms, "Be careful."
"Okay." Su Jiu patted him on the shoulder.
Letting go of Xuanyuan Che, Su Jiu glanced at Su Rongan who seemed to be still sulking. She felt funny in her heart and opened her arms, "Brother Six."
Su Rongan muttered, but still stood up and hugged Su Jiu tightly.
"Jiu'er, you must be good, otherwise I will die of guilt and your fifth brother will beat me to death."
Su Jiu said with a smile, "Okay, I will be fine."
With her ability, it would be absolutely fantastic to say she could defeat the man in black robe, but she could still do it if she delayed for a while.
Not to mention that she had already spread the news three days ago. It is easy for a kingfisher to travel thousands of miles in a day. If the master receives the news, he will definitely come immediately. Maybe he is already on the way now.

"vomit!"
Her stomach was turbulent again, and Su Jingqin suddenly opened her eyes on the couch. She lay beside the couch and kept retching. Her face was pale and she looked much haggard.
"What a shame, you little bastard? What's wrong with you, you little bastard? If the baby is a girl, I won't care. If it's a bastard, I'll have to wait for you. I'll remember everything in my heart... ugh!"
Before she could finish mumbling to herself, Su Jingqin couldn't help but retched several times in a row.
The maids outside the house heard the noise, were awakened, and knocked on the door.
"Princess, are you okay? Do you want the slaves to come in and serve you?"
These maids were not the original maids of the palace, even Cuizhu was imprisoned. Su Jingqin did not know whether they were dead or under house arrest.
Therefore, Su Jingqin didn't trust any of these people, and naturally she didn't trust that she would let these people stay by her side when she went to bed at night. If someone wanted to do evil to her, wouldn't it mean that they would disappear in her sleep?
She touched the leather whip placed under the pillow, and felt relieved immediately, "No... yuck!"
This time it was not retching, but vomiting out sour water, which gave off an unpleasant smell, making her want to vomit even more.
The symptoms of morning sickness only started in the past few days. She was not able to sleep well in the first place. With the vomiting, she became even more uncomfortable and had no energy left to make troubles. She just slept more when she didn't want to vomit.
A while, otherwise there is no telling how long the trouble will continue.
Su Jingqin lay beside the couch, smelling the unpleasant smell. Although she vomited it out herself, she still felt disgusted. She blinked and felt like crying.
Although she has practiced martial arts since she was a child and has an arrogant temperament, she has always been served by good food and drink since she was a child. Now that she is behind bars, pregnant, and her body is like this, all kinds of grievances suddenly come to her.
In her heart, she really misses Xuanyuan Che, her father and the others.
She ate a lot yesterday, but almost all of it was vomited. Now all the vomited out is acidic water. Not only does her mouth feel uncomfortable, but her stomach is on fire up to her throat, and there is an indescribable burning sensation.
, Su Jingqin couldn't hold it back and shed a few tears, then wiped them away with her sleeves.
"Come in."
His voice was hoarse, and he was too weak to speak.
Hearing the answer, the maids dared to open the door. The princess had a bad temper and was quite fierce. They were all sent by the second prince to serve the princess. The second prince said that they must listen to the princess carefully. The princess did not like them.
They could only wait at the door.
"Huh? Where is Zi Shu? Didn't she go to Gong's room? Why hasn't she come back yet?"
Among these maids, only Zi Shu could say a few words to the princess. If Zi Shu was here, they might be able to suffer less.
"I don't know, maybe I caught a cold. Zi Shu has been running to Gong's room non-stop since yesterday."
The maids at the door opened the door and whispered, and from the corner of their eyes, they caught a glimpse of a hurried figure walking towards this side.
It is the purple book.
"Where have you been? The princess has called someone!"
Zi Shu trotted over and apologized with a smile, "I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well in my stomach. It took me a while, but the princess vomited again?"
One of the maids looked back at Zi Shu, met her smiling eyes, and was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why, but she always felt that Zi Shu looked much better today than before, but they all had the same face... Could it be that she was having a stomachache?
How can it get better?
"Yes! It's almost time. Excluding the time for dressing up and eating, it's almost time to get up. When the time comes, the Second Prince will come to pick up the princess in person. We have to be careful."
“Naturally!”
Ten maids quickly walked into the house.
The few people seemed to have long been accustomed to the sour smell in the house, and they didn't care. They cleaned and burned incense. After a while, the house returned to its usual cleanliness.
Zi Shu twisted a handkerchief and handed it to Su Jingqin, "Princess, what would you like to eat for breakfast today?"
Su Jingqin had just changed her clothes and lay down on the couch for a while. Her whole body was curled up, revealing only a pale little face. She looked pitiful.
"I don't want to eat it."
Su Jingqin is not stupid. She naturally knows their intentions for this incense offering. She doesn't want to go, but she can't resist. If some tough measures are really used, then her child... thinking about it, Su Jingqin
Qin's hand under the quilt unconsciously touched her slightly curved belly, her eyes filled with worry.
If she really can't keep the child this time...
"Princess, what can you do if you don't eat? For the sake of the prince, the princess must take good care of herself."
These maids are all from Xuanyuan Qing's house. Without the prefix '二', Su Jingqin would have subconsciously thought she was talking about Xuanyuan Qing, with a cold look on her face, "Who is he, Xuanyuan Qing? He deserves it too."
?!"
After a few "thumps", several maids quickly knelt down.
"Princess, please spare your life."
Su Jingqin knelt down when she saw these people frightened, and felt bored. In the final analysis, it was just a different stance. It was useless for her to get angry with these people.
"That's all, you go down first, breakfast is still the same..." Su Jingqin glanced at Zi Shu, who was still kneeling beside the couch, and when she met her eyes, she felt an indescribable feeling rising in her heart.
It was strange, as if it was familiar, "Zishu will stay and talk to this princess."
"yes!"
The remaining maids looked at each other and saw the luck in each other's eyes.
Rather than serving and talking to the princess, they prefer to stay outside or interact with the ladies in the kitchen.
Although it is a good thing to be loved by the princess, after all, this princess is still the wife of the third prince, and she is still pregnant with the third prince's child. Now the second prince is pampering and doting on the princess, but if he really gets the princess, then
Not sure what will happen?
Maybe I got tired of it at some point and let the princess fall in the backyard. The one who suffered the most was the maid next to the princess.
Although they were servants, they were all very clear-minded. Besides, it was no secret that the Second Prince was ruthless. Didn't they see many ladies in the backyard who were pampered and then ignored?
With a 'squeak' sound, the door was closed.
"Who are you? Are you not Zishu?"
Although the words were questions, the tone was indeed affirmative.
Su Jingqin's face turned cold, and her hand had already grasped the leather whip under the pillow. As long as the 'Zishu' made any move, she would definitely smash this person's face!
Seeing Su Jingqin’s vigilant look, ‘Zishu’ flashed a smile in her eyes.
Doesn't speak.
Su Jingqin looked at 'Zishu''s curved eyebrows, and the feeling of familiarity became stronger and stronger. In the flash of lightning, she couldn't help blurting out, "Jiu'er?!"
"Pfft!"
Su Jiu did not take off her mask, but restored her original voice, "Fourth sister."
"Jiu'er? Are you really Jiu'er?"
Su Jingqin couldn't believe it, but she still remained vigilant and asked: "Back then, how did you take me to tell the fortunes of the palace people?"
Su Jiu glanced around, lowered her voice, and almost leaned into Su Jingqin's ear and said word by word: "Drill, dog, hole."
Su Jingqin's eyes widened when she heard this, and her eyes were red.
"Jiu'er, are you really Jiu'er?"
"Fourth sister, don't be too excited. Excessive emotional fluctuations are not good for the baby."
On the surface, Zishu was just whispering to the princess. The princess didn't know what she was thinking of, and her eyes were a little red.
The secret guard who originally sensed something was wrong saw this and retreated into the darkness.
"Does Fourth Sister always vomit so badly?"
Su Jiu reached in from the quilt, touched her belly, and asked softly.
"In the past few days, this little brat has been very noisy and annoying." Su Jingqin let go of the whip, held Su Jiu's hand tightly, and kept staring at Su Jiu, as if she was afraid of what she would do next.
It will disappear in seconds.
"Maybe she's a naughty little girl." Su Jiu chuckled, "Fourth sister, don't worry, brother Xuanyuan is fine. I have already met with him, and he will rescue you with sixth brother today."
Su Jiu briefly described the group's plan to Su Jingqin.
"...They will come to help you change your clothes later. Fourth sister, you don't need to be too cooperative. Just do it today as usual, but it's about the baby." Su Jiu handed Su Jingqin a green porcelain bottle.
"This is the medicine I made. It can relieve your symptoms, Fourth Sister, and stabilize the fetus. There will definitely be a tough battle to fight later. Fourth Sister, you must protect yourself and the baby. I'm still waiting.
When she was born, she called me aunt."
"I will."
Su Jingqin squeezed the porcelain bottle tightly and drank it all without any doubt. Then she held Su Jiu's hand with a worried look on her face, "Jiu'er, you must be careful when you go to distract the military advisor by yourself!"
She knew Jiu'er's temperament. Once she made a decision, no matter how hard anyone tried to persuade her, it was useless. Now that she had arrived at the palace, she had transformed into a purple book, and she had no chance of turning back. Instead of persuading her, she should cooperate well.
, so that Jiu'er's plan will not fail.
"I will, Fourth Sister, don't worry!"
Su Jiu returned to hold Su Jingqin's hand.
She turned her head and looked in the direction of the courtyard where the military advisor was located on the map. After one night, Su Jiu had already memorized the maps of the Royal Palace and the Royal City and knew them by heart.
It had not been long since she entered the palace. If that person could really feel her presence, he should have noticed it by now.
Just as Su Jiu was thinking about it, the bell that was originally extremely quiet suddenly started shaking violently.
