The prince is very cruel
Chapter 227
"Husband, then, what are you waiting for!"
"Let's go!"
"We can't beat them. Staying here is just revenge for Zhao Tai!"
Guan Ning smiled bitterly and touched her face: "Silly woman, this is not a question of whether to leave or not. If we leave, what will happen to Nan Yin?"
"Do you want her to sacrifice herself to the heavens and serve as a shield?"
"Am I that kind of person, man?"
Qin Yao's eyes were red: "But what can we do?"
"The emperor has issued an order."
"I admit that I'm selfish, but I don't want anything to happen to you!" She sat up, extremely serious, with a crying voice.
Guan Ning also sat up and soothed him, "Don't worry too much."
"Zhao Tai can't kill me, so the worst that can happen is that both of us will die."
"Besides, Uncle Xiao is still in the Censorate, so he must be a little wary."
"But..." Qin Yao was not stupid. She always felt that Guan Ning said this deliberately to comfort her.
"real!"
"You don't believe what I say?" Guan Ning pretended to be displeased.
"This... It's not that I don't believe it, I just think that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. If we need to leave, we should leave. As for Nan Yin, we will find other ways to help." Qin Yao said.
Guan Ning shook his head and said seriously: "The capital is the safest place."
After hearing these words, Qin Yao was stunned, her beautiful eyes blank.
"Think about it, Zhao Tai is a very capable person. The only thing he's still afraid of is the imperial court. Once we leave the capital, he can do whatever he wants."
"But in the capital, he has such great achievements that he threatens the emperor. He must be more restrained to avoid losing the big picture because of small gains."
"Look, would he dare to send someone in to arrest people openly during the day?"
"I was released by the emperor's order, and now he comes to arrest me again. Isn't he slapping the emperor in the face?" Guan Ning was serious. This was not consolation, but the truth.
When Qin Yao heard this, she felt that there was some truth to it. Leaving the capital seemed like escaping, but in fact it was walking into a trap.
"Well, that's fine."
"But we have to be together!" she suddenly said again.
"We swore to live together and die together!" She gritted her teeth, extremely determined: "You can't abandon me and do anything alone without telling me!"
Guan Ning was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. The one who understood me best was Qin Yao.
"Good good."
"I promise!"
"Do you really promise? I'm not being frivolous with you. I tolerate you in other things, but if you dare to lie to me and leave me in this matter, you'll see how I will make trouble for you!" Qin Yao threatened.
"Don't worry." Guan Ning smiled.
Qin Yao finally believed it and lay down again.
Guan Ning coaxed the person to sleep, but fell into insomnia again.
The dilemma now was no longer a small one, and the previous preparations could not solve Pei Nanyin's problem. Zhao Tai was too cunning, and the first thing he did was to ask the emperor for an order.
Once the imperial edict is issued, anyone who opposes it will die.
But he couldn't just watch Pei Nanyin being sent into the fire pit. She was such a beautiful and unique woman, she shouldn't marry someone like Du Peng. If she did, her life would be ruined, and he would never forgive himself.
But how to break the deadlock?
With this question in mind, he didn't come up with some unresolved solutions until dawn.
Guan Ning sent Yu Dilong and six others out, carrying a large amount of gold, to inquire about Pei Nanyin's whereabouts at all costs. At the same time, they paid a large sum of money to buy information about Du Peng, including his travel time, patterns, and how many people he would bring with him, no matter how big or small.
After doing all this, he went to sleep.
……
Five days later, there were only five days left until the wedding date.
At this time, more details about the marriage between Princess Nanyin and General Weiyuan of the Fourth Rank were naturally revealed, and Yu Dilong finally returned home to report.
"Sir!"
"We spent a hundred taels of gold and learned that the wedding will be held in the Zhao Mansion. The Zhao Mansion has already sent invitations to all the princes, nobles, celebrities and gentlemen in the capital."
“There will be a lot of people going there.”
Guan Ning narrowed his eyes, impatient.
"What about Nanyin?"
"Any news about her?"
Yu Dilong shook his head and said ashamedly: "Sir, I haven't found this."
Guan Ning frowned, a little disappointed. There were only five days left!
"How could a healthy and living person just disappear from the face of the earth?"
