Her expression hardened and her smile faded.

Nian Qiaoyue lifted her skirt and squatted beside her. She glanced at the sticky unknown substance in her hand with disdain, and asked with all her nausea, "Sister, what are you doing? Can you take me with you?"

Nian Susu couldn't clearly explain what the basin in front of her was. At first, she just asked the system for some alginate, and then after adding various materials, it became what it is now. It was a bit like the bubble glue that elementary school students loved to play with, but hers was a little thinner.

It looks disgusting.

She grabbed a handful and handed it to Nian Qiaoyue, pulling at the thread, "Can't you see what I'm doing? Do you want to try it? It's delicious."

Nian Qiaoyue had the word "disdain" written all over her face. She tilted her head back in fear, fearing that the stuff would get on her. "No, no, let me enjoy it myself."

There is no need to share this kind of thing.

Nian Susu just wanted to scare her, but seeing her reaction so big, he felt relieved and didn't make things difficult for her anymore. He just kept kneading and scratching the "bubble glue".

Nian Qiaoyue smiled awkwardly.

She came here to get information, not to see Nian Susu playing with such a disgusting thing.

"Sister, didn't you say a few days ago that you wanted to take Miss Li away from Shengjing? Have you thought of a plan?" she asked bluntly.

Fearing that Nian Susu would discover her ulterior motives, she quickly rubbed her handkerchief and added with a worried look, "Miss Li is also my friend. I don't want to see her suffer. If there is anything I can help with, please tell me. I will do my best to help!"

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Nian Susu's face, but it was fleeting.

Since Nian Qiaoyue came to ask, she might as well take advantage of the situation and lead Nian Qiaoyue to the wrong direction. On the one hand, she could confuse Prince Ren's sight so that he could not find Li Yaoyuan's whereabouts, and on the other hand, she could avoid Prince Ren's trap to prevent him from falling into the trap.

Since the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, and she doesn't know what Prince Ren's plan is, she might as well take the initiative to give him a plan.

She pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I have a plan, but it's hard to implement it."

Nian Qiaoyue's eyes lit up: "What plan? Why don't you tell me about it? Maybe I can find a way to help solve it."

She had tried her best to suppress her emotions, but the joy in her tone could not be concealed.

Nian Susu rubbed the bubble gum and felt it was quite relaxing. He couldn't help but rub it a few more times.

Nian Qiaoyue felt nauseous again.

"Zhizhi doesn't want to leave." She looked at Nian Qiaoyue with resentment, feeling as if she had found an outlet for her anger, and she spoke incessantly, "We clearly agreed that day to send her out of the city, away to live a free life."

She gritted her teeth and said, "But a few days ago, Master Xiao went to see her, and then she told me that she didn't want to leave. She wanted to be with Master Xiao, even if it meant being his concubine."

Nian Qiaoyue always felt that this sentence was a little familiar... Had she heard it somewhere before?

Before she could think, Nian Susu's slimy hand covered the back of her hand.

The cold and sticky texture... gave Nian Qiaoyue goosebumps all over her body.

"Sister Qiaoyue, what do you think I should do? How can I persuade her to leave?"

Nian Qiaoyue resisted the urge to push her away and pretended to comfort her: "Miss Li was just fooled by your sweet words. I'm her good friend, maybe she can listen to a few of your words."

If Li Yaoyuan refused to leave, wouldn't her plan be ruined? Prince Ren would not let her go.

Nian Susu must persuade Li Yaoyuan to elope.

"Sister, we all know Wang Yuejiao's temper. If Miss Li marries her, she will only be bullied! Even if Master Xiao likes her and dotes on her, what can he do? The women in the harem fight all the time. As a grown man, can he be with Miss Li anytime and anywhere? Can he protect Miss Li every step of the way?"

Nian Susu seemed to have accidentally entered into a pyramid scheme, and was listening to the leader brainwashing her in a serious manner.

She shook her head blankly, "No."

I felt emotional in my heart: Nian Qiaoyue finally spoke like a human being, this analysis is very reasonable.

Nian Qiaoyue: "That's it, running away from marriage is the most correct choice."

"Yeah! That makes sense!"

Nian Susu patted Nian Qiaoyue on the shoulder with a resolute look, "I will convince Zhizhi to leave. When the time comes, I'll have to trouble my sister to prepare a carriage for me to wait at the west gate. The night before the wedding, I will take Zhizhi to the west gate and send her out of the city."

Everything has been explained clearly. If Prince Ren wants to take action, the safest thing to do is to wait at the west gate.

Nian Qiaoyue showed a satisfied smile on her face, "Okay, then we'll meet at Ximen in seven days."

The two of them made an agreement like this.

As soon as Nian Qiaoyue left, Nian Susu called Jingzhe over and asked her to keep an eye on the situation in the west wing.

Within an hour, Jingzhe came back panting and brought a letter.

"Miss, I can't read, so I can only bring it back for you to read." Jingzhe handed the letter to her and said, "I followed Nian Qiaoyue back to the West Wing, and three quarters of an hour later I saw her maid sneaking out of the house, and it seemed like she was hiding something in her arms. I followed her all the way, and ended up outside Prince Ren's mansion.

This letter was the one that the girl stuffed into Prince Ren's mansion. I took it out."

Nian Susu held the envelope covered with mud in his hand, and couldn't help laughing when he thought of Jingzhe lying on the ground and taking out the letter from the hole.

Jingzhe didn't know what she was laughing at, and urged her to read it quickly so that she could put it back after reading it to avoid arousing suspicion.

After reading the letter, Nian Qiaoyue relayed their conversation to Prince Ren in detail, emphasizing the three key words: seven days later, at night, and Ximen.

Nian Susu sneered, returned the letter to Jingzhe, and told him to make sure to put it back to its place.

She was not afraid of the plan being leaked, she was also afraid that Prince Ren had not received the news.

……

Seven days later.

Tomorrow is the wedding day. The preparations of the Xiao Mansion, the Wang Mansion, and the Li Mansion have been completed, and they just have to go through the formalities tomorrow.

Compared with the other two families, the Li Mansion seemed a bit shabby. After all, she was a concubine, and Li Zhiyi felt it was shameful. He didn't even ask about the dowry. He just asked the servants to pick a few things from the warehouse and put them in the box.

Li Yaoyuan was not surprised by his perfunctory attitude, nor did she take it seriously.

She wouldn't care even if there wasn't a single red ribbon hanging in the Li Mansion today, because she had no intention of getting married.

In order to buy more time, Li Yaoyuan put a small amount of sleeping pills into the well water. After the meal, everyone in the mansion was in a bad mood, and Li Zhiyi was no exception.

When it was lights-out time, everyone was eager to go back to their rooms to sleep, and the one on night watch just sat on the floor leaning against the door frame and fell asleep.

The huge Li Mansion was deserted, with red ribbons fluttering in the wind, giving an eerie feeling.
