"You are very familiar with her? How did you meet?"

Seeing her anxious look, Gu Mufeng looked at him with some confusion.

Then he felt relieved. Why did he act so stupid? The ring was given to him by the Empress's sister-in-law. He must have met her in the ring space, right?

Tangning said cautiously:

"She is the most important relative to me."

"Relatives?"

"Yes, my only relative."

Tang Ning stared out the window in a daze. During the years that Nuannuan had been with her, she felt like she had come back to life, living like a normal person.

They depend on each other for survival. They have no blood relationship but are better than family members. Aren’t they family members?

"But aren't your relatives from the Tang family in Chu County?"

Gu Mufeng didn’t quite understand. The second emperor’s wife was an orphan without parents, so she might also be from Chu County.

"You don't understand, she is my salvation!"

The light in Tangning's eyes sparkled again for Nuannuan.

"Redemption?"

Gu Mufeng carefully savored the meaning of these two words, his mind filled with doubts, both about the Second Princess and about Tang Ning.

The two of them seemed to have known each other for many years and had a tacit understanding.

"Yeah, redemption."

Tang Ning's thoughts went back to many years ago, when she was only ten years old. She was bullied by a group of children and hid in a fake cave in the park with injuries all over her body.

Mother Song took Nuannuan for a walk after lunch and found her in the cave.

"Mom, look, it's Ningning. Ningning, why are you here? Are you also playing hide-and-seek with your mom?

Then she saw the scars all over her body.

"Mom, look, Ningning is covered in wounds. She must have been bullied by those bad kids again."

His warm hands felt so warm against her cold skin, like a little sun, almost burning her as he helped her up.

Mother Song took her to the hospital to get medicine, bought her some food, and comforted her that everything was fine. She then went back to call her teacher.

"No, Auntie, my mother will beat me to death."

This sentence made Mother Song give up the idea of ​​calling, and she hugged her in her arms with some heartache.

Mother Song’s embrace was so warm that she snuggled in her arms somewhat greedily.

In fact, Mother Song had already helped her. The first time, there was a big fuss and the police were called, but they were just superficial injuries and they were just children.

Mom couldn't afford to offend those people, so she beat her and forced her to apologize to them. She also disliked Mom Song for meddling in her affairs.

Mother Song is such a good person, she treats her better than her own mother.

She couldn't let Mother Song get hurt again.

When she returned home late at night, she was beaten again, but she was no longer afraid because Nuannuan said that she had to survive no matter what.

As long as they become strong enough, no one can bully them.

Nuannuan even learned Sanda because of her.

Later, when those children came to bully her again, Nuannuan would use her small body to protect her.

Then the two of them bullied back until those kids would never bother them again.

But Nuannuan found that the injuries on my body still appeared, and she became anxious.

But no matter how she asked me, I didn't answer.

Silly Nuannuan, that's not an adult that we kids can deal with.

But it doesn’t matter. As long as Nuannuan is here, I won’t be afraid no matter what.

Nuannuan, I'm old enough now. Now it's my turn to protect you.

"There's been a change of plan. The Second Princess is trapped in the palace."

A guard came in from outside and whispered in Gu Mufeng's ear, interrupting Tang Ning's memories.

"What should we do then? The Second Prince is injured. Can't she, as his wife, come out?"

A murderous intent flashed in Tang Ning's eyes. The Queen's behavior was too abnormal. No matter how high her status was, it was unacceptable for her to imprison her daughter-in-law.

"Don't worry. The Second Princess got the news and was about to leave the palace, but the Queen's maid chased her back. She said that as soon as the Second Princess left, she immediately got a headache and felt nauseous. She was very uncomfortable."

Tangning's lips curled into a trace of disdain.

"It really is a place where people are eaten. It's extraordinary. This is the first time I've heard of it. Some people can't leave pregnant women, and others will get headaches and nausea when they leave."

Gu Mufeng explained somewhat embarrassedly:

"The Second Imperial Sister-in-law is an excellent doctor. Before she married my second brother, she was a famous doctor in the capital."

Oh, that's not surprising. After all, Nuannuan's medical skills are pretty good. She's a doctoral student at a prestigious medical university. She's the real deal, no exaggeration.

"Is there any other solution now?"

Tang Ning was a little anxious. Under the current circumstances, there was no way Nuannuan could be taken out. The Queen clearly refused to let her go.

To take it out by force is probably like dreaming, and those involved will probably be guilty of the serious crime of treason.

"I'm going to the palace to pay my respects to the Queen. You change into a maid's clothes and wait for an opportunity to find out what's going on."

"no problem."

"Don't act rashly. The palace is heavily guarded. Be careful with everyone you meet."

Tang Ning nodded in agreement, and the two of them left the restaurant and found a secluded place.

Tang Ning took the opportunity to hide in the ring. Gu Mufeng took Tang Ning into the palace and went all the way to Fengyi Palace.

Tangning was extremely excited in the ring because it was Nuannuan who was giving the Queen a massage.

After not seeing each other for a long time, Nuannuan has become more stable, but there is a bit more worry and sadness between her brows. She used to like lively atmosphere and travel all over the world.

Now she is trapped in the small imperial city and must be very sad.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother!"

"How did you come?"

The Queen was very unhappy with Gu Mufeng's arrival. She hated anyone and anything that carried magic, and she also didn't like the feeling of being out of control.

"I have been feeling unwell recently. I heard that the Second Princess is with the Queen Mother, so I thought I would stop by and visit her."

"If you're not feeling well, you can go to the Imperial Hospital for treatment. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to come to your sister-in-law?"

Seeing this, Song Nuannuan said with a slight smile:

"Mother, Eighth Brother used to be close friends with the Second Prince, and he's used to seeing me for treatment. Where is Eighth Brother feeling unwell? Let me take a look at you."

Before Song Nuannuan could get close to Gu Mufeng, the teacup in the queen's hand fell at her feet:

"All those days of me-me-me-me-me are wasted. All those days of etiquette learning are wasted."

The Queen's eyes suddenly became sharp, and she said impatiently:

"Alright, don't embarrass yourself with your limited medical skills. Come, ask the imperial physician to come and see the Eighth Prince, or you'll accuse me of being unkind."

It was she who refused to let Song Nuannuan go because she said she had good medical skills, and it was she who was embarrassed because she said her medical skills were poor.

But there's nothing we can do about it, since she's the queen.

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

After saying this, Gu Mufeng retreated without staying any longer.

The Queen is very suspicious and probably won't allow the two of them to come into contact.

Tang Ning thought that Gu Mufeng would find a deserted place to let her go, but she really didn't expect it to be in the men's bathroom.
