"We're here, Miss Su, please come down." Chu Si said.

"Ah."

Su Wanyue got off the carriage.

This small courtyard is not big, it should be a side courtyard. There are many fallen leaves in the yard, and the autumn wind is bleak, and the fallen leaves are flying.

She was welcomed into the room and was the only one in it.

Su Wanyue whispered, "It seems that something is really going to happen."

This situation is obviously not common sense.

Sure enough, after a while, everyone left one after another, and only an old lady came in.

"You must be Lady Jiarong. Concubine Li is having a headache, so she sent this old servant here. Our queen already knows about your affairs. She may not care about it because of your hard work and great contributions to the Su family, but you cannot keep this child. As for the third prince, you are a fallen woman, so you'd better not have any thoughts about him." The old nanny looked at Su Wanyue and said.

After Su Wanyue sat down, she said, "Does the Third Prince know that Concubine Li has done this? Does the Emperor know? Whether the child can be kept or not, Concubine Li's decision has no final say."

Bringing her to such a secret place, I guess Concubine Li did these things without telling anyone else.

"Empress Li is the biological mother of the Third Prince, a member of the royal family. What you have done will result in the death of all nine generations of your clan. Miss Su, if you keep this child, you'd better think about the consequences." said the old nanny.

Su Wanyue reached out and touched her flat belly. "The child in my belly is also of royal blood. I don't understand why keeping him means the entire clan will be exterminated. If Concubine Li wants to move the child in my belly, she should ask the Emperor for permission."

The old nanny was stunned and shocked. She only heard Chu Si's one-sided story. What if the child in her belly was really the Third Prince's? If she was given abortion pills now, it would be difficult to explain if they investigated it in the future.

"Miss Su, please wait here. I will report your words to Her Majesty Li Fei. She will have her own ideas on how to deal with you."

"Of course..." Su Wanyue smiled and looked at the old nanny, "If the grandson in my belly, her own grandson, is hurt, I'm afraid no one will be able to bear the consequences."

The old nanny walked out with a sullen face and told the two young palace maids guarding the door to keep an eye on Su Wanyue.

When the door closed, Su Wanyue breathed a sigh of relief, quickly stood up, and poured out the abortion pills that the nanny had brought in.

Although the system is there, she is not worried that the child will be aborted, but as the saying goes, all medicine is poisonous and it is always bad.

Now that the door was blocked, Su Wanyue didn't want to sit there and wait for death.

It was obvious that Concubine Li had come with bad intentions. She had to escape from here and find the emperor or Xiao Changling to ensure the safety of herself and the baby in her belly.

Su Wanyue asked the system, [Dog system, is there any secret passage here that can lead me out?]

The system checked it out and said, "Twist the vase to trigger a mechanism. There's a secret passage underneath that leads to somewhere else."

Su Wanyue did not hesitate. She immediately stood up and twisted the vase according to the system's instructions.

In today's situation, any place is safer than here.

The tunnel was very dark. After Su Wanyue jumped in, the entrance automatically restored itself.

It was very dark in the cave, but the little fox could see clearly. After all, she was a fox and had the ability to see even at night.

The inside was very simple, with different tunnels scattered throughout, and it smelled of earth and some unknown stench.

She walked along a small path in the dark and heard voices, so she stopped, found a sunken place to hide, and squatted there motionless.

The sound was getting closer and closer, accompanied by the sound of footsteps coming from far away, and two men in black were groping forward in the tunnel.

"The emperor has ordered that the Su family father and son be killed on the road." said a man in black.

"Why?" another asked curiously, "The Su family father and son have made great contributions to the country. I have several brothers in the army and I admire them very much."

The man in black said, "I don't know, but we are the emperor's secret guards. Everything we do must be done according to the emperor's orders. The emperor said that if they come back to attend the wedding in the near future, we must kill them on their way."

"Got it. I'll gather my brothers."

"Oh, right, my father-in-law said that after this is done, we'll try to get the blame on the Shen family, the Minister of Rites. Their family has been a bit restless lately, and the Emperor is unhappy."

……

Two figures passed by Su Wanyue.

Soon, the footsteps and discussions gradually faded away.

Su Wanyue thought to herself that there was another reason, it was just that the Su family's achievements surpassed their master's, and the emperor, who was the highest in the country, was afraid of them.

She should have thought of this a long time ago.

Moreover, after the death of her father and brother, she was the only woman left in the Su family, making her the easiest to control. All the troops that supported her father and brother would become the helpers of the royal family.

Once she married into the royal family, it meant she became a member of the royal family.

It turns out that the mastermind behind all this is actually the emperor.

Therefore, the original owner's family was destroyed in his previous life, and it seemed that Murong Yunlang was responsible, but in fact it was the emperor who was fanning the flames behind the scenes.

This is easy to handle.

The little fox touched her belly. If the emperor wanted to use her, he would definitely protect the baby in her belly.

at that time.

The emperor had dinner with Xiao Changling and then let him go back, and also reminded him to take good care of Su Wanyue.

Xiao Changling was anxious, so he didn't take a carriage and rode directly back home.

The night is dark and the evening breeze is blowing.

Xiao Changling pushed open the door, and Su Wanyue was not in the room. The maid beside her also disappeared without a trace.

"Where's Miss Su?"

Xiao Changling asked the maids guarding the courtyard. They shook their heads in confusion and said, "The steward suddenly called us over this morning. When we came back, Miss Su had already left without saying goodbye."

"Where's the butler? Call him over!" Xiao Changling's voice was a little out of control.

The little maid was frightened and hurried to find the housekeeper. After a while, she came back and said, "Master, the housekeeper is not in the house."

I feel a little guilty on the fourth day of the New Year.

He stepped forward and comforted her, "Master, maybe Miss Su doesn't want to stay here. She may have already returned home. Or, she went to find..."

Chusi didn't finish his words because he was still concerned about Xiao Changling's face.

But Xiao Changling understood that what Chusi wanted to say was that she might have gone to find the biological father of the child in her belly.

Xiao Changling remembered that she had told him in the morning that she had something very important to tell him.

Could this be the case?

He wasn't talking.

Xiao Changling turned around silently. The dim light from the lanterns in the corridor fell on him, and the half-light vaguely revealed a sense of helplessness and loneliness.

He was like a hollowed-out puppet. He turned around and went back to the room where Su Wanyue had been before, closing the door silently. The air seemed to be filled with silent sobs, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

"master!"

Fei Yuan called out to Xiao Changling in a low voice at the door, her voice trembling slightly, as if she had made a very difficult decision, "Miss Su needs you, she was taken away."
