Nangong Yue took the pill and swallowed it without hesitation.
"Are you... not afraid of being poisoned immediately after eating it?" Su Nianyun asked, "That's poison!"
"Don't be afraid," Nangong Yue looked at Su Nianyun with strange eyes, "If you came here specifically to poison me, I would think you have spent a lot of time!"
Go to beg the Queen Mother, ask for her decree, bring the best pink pearls and shiny silks, just to kill her?
"You do trust me!" Su Nian smiled.
"I don't trust you, I trust Chuxue!" Nangong Yue corrected Su Nianyun.
"Okay," Su Nianyun nodded, "I'll let Chuxue come in and talk to you."
"Wait..." Nangong Yue stopped Su Nianyun, "Don't tell her the truth, I still need her to act for me."
"This is how you treat a good friend and use her like this?" Su Nianyun was displeased.
"I'm not using her, it's just that she came at the wrong time!"
Nangong Yue said, "Chu Xue has a kind heart and has always treated me and Sun Ruyu equally..."
"Sun Ruyu knew that I was sick, but she asked her to come see me. What do you think Sun Ruyu was thinking?"
Su Nianyun knew clearly in her heart, but her brows didn't move, just confused.
"I have never had much contact with the ladies in the capital. I don't know what you are thinking about each other!"
Nangong Yue said, "This is Sun Ruyu's test. She is trying to see if I am really sick or if I am pretending to be sick. Her father and my father belong to two camps."
"Now, do you understand?"
Su Nianyun shook her head, "I still don't understand. Since it's a test, she can test it herself. Why should Chuxue come?"
"Because Chuxue is not afraid of difficulties, she will definitely come in to see me, but Sun Ruyu has a lot of scruples!"
"No, didn't Chuxue seek you and then go through many twists and turns to meet me?"
"However, one thing Sun Ruyu didn't expect was that Chuxue didn't read Princess Yun that you were smart. You saw through my disguise right away, and she was the only one who kept crying!"
Su Nianyun smiled, "That's because I brought Dr. Gao here..."
Nangong Yue smiled and said nothing.
Seeing her smile, Su Nianyun became even more sure that Nangong Yue was now part of the Eighteenth Prince's Party.
The eighteenth prince must have told Nangong Yue that she knew medical skills.
But at this time, Su Nianyun could only treat herself as an outsider and pretend not to know what Nangong Yue knew.
"Well, since the Crown Princess doesn't want Chuxue to know, I won't let her know."
Su Nianyun nodded. She opened the door and let Chu Xue in, who had been waiting for a long time.
Chuxue was so anxious that she rushed in and stood in front of Nangong Yue, "Nianyun, don't bully Nangong Yue, she is still sick..."
Su Nianyun shrugged, "Don't worry, I didn't bully her, I just forced the imperial doctor to see her."
"So..." Chuxue looked at Imperial Physician Gao, "How is the Crown Princess doing?"
Gao Wenxuan shook his head, "I am terminally ill and it is too late to receive treatment. If I take good care of myself, I can live longer, otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?" Chuxue's voice trembled.
"Otherwise the medicine will not work!"
"Nangong Yue, you..." Chuxue stepped forward to hug Nangong Yue to comfort her.
But Nangong Yue pushed me away, "I don't need any of you to pity me now."
"Go away, I have never considered you a friend, and don't come back again!"
"Nangong Yue..." Chu Xue couldn't stop crying, "I'll help you, beg the prince and the queen..."
"I said," Nangong Yue said loudly, "life and death are my own business, I don't need your help, leave quickly!"
As she spoke, she threw away the tea bowl at hand.
The sound of breaking caused the maid guarding the door to peek in secretly.
Su Nianyun pulled Chu Xue, "She is already terminally ill. Whether she can be cured or not is unknown. This is her own choice. Let's go!"
She pulled Chu Xue away without hesitation and walked to the gate without looking back.
Seeing Chu Xue's eyes that were red from crying and the imperial doctor who was shaking his head helplessly, the maid said, "Slave, tell me, the princess is seriously ill and is contagious, but the princess and Mrs. Yang don't believe it!"
"Everyone, it's better to leave here with the slaves as soon as possible. I'm afraid if you stay here for a long time, you will really get infected!"
Chuxue still wanted to look back, but Su Nianyun forced her away.
Watching the group of people walking away, a woman in black turned over and fell from the beam of the hall.
She came to Nangong Yue and said, "Princess, that medicine..."
"It's okay," Nangong Yue waved her hand, "Didn't your master say that? Su Nianyun is yours!"
"But, she is just working for her secret master. She doesn't know the master at all in reality... I'm afraid she accidentally hurts you."
"It's okay, I believe her!" Nangong Yue said, "It'll be okay."
"I just didn't expect that Su Nianyun would help Chuxue so much, which really surprised me!"
For Chu Xue to come see her, she is no longer as cold-hearted as she was just now.
Chuxue came without hesitation, which actually moved her very much.
"As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed, but Chuxue is the only one who is willing to come to see me when it comes to my level..."
Back when she was still the domineering eldest daughter of the Nangong family, there were too many things she couldn't see clearly.
On the contrary, it was the fights with Nangong Xing in the past few months after she got married that allowed her to quickly see clearly the hearts of the prince, her father, and many other people.
Today's Nangong Yue is very different from before.
If they continue to underestimate her like before, they will not even know how they died.
…
On the carriage ride back, Chuxue was still wiping tears because of Nangong Yue's incident.
Su Nianyun, who knew the truth, didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only hand her a silk handkerchief.
Chuxue didn't know what Su Nianyun was thinking, so she cried and thanked her at the same time, "Nianyun, thank you very much for accompanying me to see Nangong Yue today. I really appreciate you."
Su Nianyun said, "You have thanked me so many times that my ears are almost calloused!"
"I'm sorry, I..." Chuxue couldn't help crying again.
Su Nianyun patted her shoulder in time and said, "Yang Ming is waiting for you outside."
"Ah?" Chuxue looked up, "Why is he outside?"
"This is the door of your Yang Mansion. If he is not here, where would he be?"
Su Nianyun said, "Everyone has his own destiny. Put away your tears and don't let the Yang family worry."
Chuxue sniffed and nodded, "I understand, I won't let others worry about me."
After saying that, she quickly got out of the car and came to Yang Ming, "Why are you waiting here?"
Yang Ming said, "It's raining, but you didn't come back."
As she spoke, a sky-blue paper umbrella was placed over her head.
However, the movement of covering up the rain immediately made Chu Xue's eyes turn red again.
She put her head on Yang Ming's shoulder, "Husband, you are so kind to me."
Seeing this sweet and heartwarming scene, Su Nianyun smiled on the carriage, leaving the young couple to be intimate, and she let Su Da drive the carriage away.
However, when the carriage returned to Chen's house, Su Nianyun was surprised to see the same scene, a sky-blue oil-paper umbrella waiting at the door.
She almost thought that Su Da had gone the wrong way, and they returned to the gate of Yang Mansion.
However, when she saw the person under the umbrella clearly, the good things she had felt at the entrance of Yang Mansion disappeared immediately.
When Chen Shaoan saw Su Nianyun's carriage coming back, he was very happy to greet it.
"Nianyun, where have you been and why did you come back?" Chen Shaoan asked with concern.
"I went to meet a friend, why are you here?" Su Nianyun sat on the carriage with a stiff face, with no intention of getting off.
"What kind of friend is he? Have I ever known him?" Chen Shaoan asked again.
Su Nianyun's voice became as cold as the rain, "What's the relationship between you and me now? Do you care what kind of friends I see?"
Chen Shaoan was already prepared to be sarcastically spoken to, but he was not chilled or angry because of it.
He said, "Nianyun, no matter what relationship I have with you, I will always care about you."
"Have you forgotten the danger you encountered on the day you gave birth? Someone would dare to attack you in broad daylight, let alone a rainy day like this?"
"Days like this are simply a breeding ground for criminals. Do you think I can stop worrying about you?"
After hearing this, Su Nianyun really looked back at the back of the carriage.
Chen Shaoan thought that Su Nianyun was frightened by his words, but Su Nianyun secretly looked at the secret guards sent by Xiao Changfeng.
By the way, if it hadn't been raining, it would have been hard for her to see them!
