Chapter 188 I went to the Huguo Temple
The Queen Mother's words were filled with emotion and regret. She sighed softly and said, "She saved my life, so I can't just sit back and watch her son die." After that, she set her eyes on Ning Sangsang and asked, "Ning girl, what is your relationship with the Sixth Prince?"
Ning Sangsang heard this and made up an excuse to deal with her, "The Sixth Prince saved my brother and me. I knew that the Sixth Prince missed his hometown and wanted to return to the Great Yan Kingdom, so I wanted to help the Sixth Prince return to the Great Yan Kingdom to repay him for saving my life."
When the Queen Mother heard this, a trace of approval flashed in her eyes. She nodded gently, "I see. You are grateful and willing to repay your kindness. I will do my best to help you."
The Queen Mother paused for a moment, then continued, "However, this matter is of great importance. Although I can speak for the Sixth Prince, the final decision still lies with the Emperor."
"Sangsang understands that no matter what the result is, Sangsang will be grateful for the Empress's kindness."
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "You can go back and wait for the news. I will find a suitable time to talk to the Emperor about this matter."
Ning Sangsang heard this and bowed to express her gratitude, "Thank you, Queen Mother. Sangsang will take my leave."
After saying that, she stood up and left the room.
After Ning Sangsang left the room, the queen dowager pondered for a moment, a firm look flashed in her eyes, and then she picked up a pen and began to write on the paper. The mother of the Sixth Prince of Yan State had saved her life, and now that she had passed away, she must help her son.
On the other side, Chu Yuzhu was waiting anxiously outside the Buddhist temple. She was curious and worried. She didn’t know what Ning Sangsang would say to her grandmother. When she saw Ning Sangsang coming out, she hurried over to her and asked, “What did you say to her grandmother?”
Ning Sangsang smiled slightly and pretended to be mysterious: "This is a secret that cannot be told, but, Third Princess, you can rest assured that I have not said anything bad about you in front of the Queen Mother."
Chu Yuzhu curled her lips. Although she was dissatisfied, she knew that if she continued to ask, she would not get an answer and would be pissed off by Ning Sangsang. So she had to give up and prepared to go in and ask her grandmother Ning Sangsang what she had said. However, when she walked out of the door, she was stopped by Nanny Leng. "Your Highness, the Third Princess, the Queen Mother said she was going to copy the scriptures and ordered no one to disturb her. You should go back."
Chu Yuzhu frowned and became even more curious about what Ning Sangsang had said to her royal grandmother, but due to Nanny Leng's obstruction, she had to give up and turned away.
Back in the carriage, Chu Yuzhu frowned and looked at Ning Sangsang, "Ning Sangsang, what did you say to my grandmother?"
"This is a secret that cannot be told." Ning Sangsang said with a smile.
[The more you want to know, the less I will tell you. I'm going to kill you with curiosity.]
When Chu Yuzhu heard Ning Sangsang's inner voice, her face suddenly fell. She snorted coldly and said, "Ning Sangsang, stop keeping me in suspense. Even if you don't tell me, I will know what you said to the Empress Dowager."
Ning Sangsang listened to her angry words and smiled without saying anything.
Chu Yuzhu stopped talking, and the atmosphere in the carriage fell into silence, with only the sound of rolling wheels. Chu Yuzhu stared at Ning Sangsang, trying to read something from her expression, but Ning Sangsang had a blank expression on her face, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
"Ning Sangsang, don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you know what I have done." Chu Yuzhu couldn't help but speak to break the quiet atmosphere.
She has always been the one threatening others, but this is the first time she has been threatened like this. And she can do nothing about the person who threatens her. It really makes people angry.
"Your Highness, Third Princess, please don't be so hostile to me. I have no bad intentions towards you."
Chu Yuzhu snorted coldly upon hearing this and did not respond. She thought to herself, this Ning Sangsang is so shameless. He has threatened her, yet he still has the nerve to tell her that he has no bad intentions towards her.
Chu Yuzhu stopped talking, and Ning Sangsang also stopped talking. The atmosphere in the carriage fell silent again.
After a long time, the carriage stopped at the Third Princess's Mansion. Ning Sangsang got off the carriage first, and Chu Yuzhu got off the carriage with the help of Zijuan. After getting off the carriage, she ignored Ning Sangsang and walked straight to the Third Princess's Mansion.
Seeing this, Ning Sangsang turned around and walked in the opposite direction. She went to the street, found a roadside wonton stall and ate a bowl of wontons. After filling her stomach, she returned to the Ningguo Mansion. By then, it was already dark.
.........
In the Ningguo Mansion, Ning Xiaotian and the three Ning brothers sat in the hall anxiously waiting for Ning Sangsang to return.
"It's so late, why hasn't my sister come back yet? Where did she go?" Ning Hui asked with a frown.
Ning Chengxiao said in a deep voice: "Sangsang hasn't come back yet so late, he must have run into some trouble. We can't just sit here and wait." After saying that, Ning Chengxiao set his eyes on Ning Xiaotian, "Dad, let's go out and look for Sangsang."
Ning Hui agreed, "Second brother is right, Dad, if my sister hasn't come back so late, she must have run into some trouble. We must go out and look for her."
Ning Chengyan said, "Dad, I'll take some people to look for Sangsang outside the city."
After saying this, he got up and left without waiting for Ning Xiaotian's response.
At this moment, a guard rushed in and reported to them: "My Lord, the three young masters and the third young lady are back."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall finally relaxed their tense faces. Ning Hui rushed out of the hall in a hurry to find Ning Sangsang.
"Sister!" Ning Hui was the first to greet her. He looked at her carefully and was relieved when he confirmed that she was safe. "You are finally back. We were so worried."
Ning Chengxiao and Ning Chengyan also came over, their faces showing worry.
"Sangsang, where have you been? Why haven't I seen you for the whole day?" Ning Chengxiao asked with a frown.
As soon as she said this, everyone turned their eyes to Ning Sangsang, waiting for her answer.
Ning Sangsang only told Xiaoman that someone came to see her and said that she had to go out for something, but she did not tell her that she was going to Huguo Temple, so no one knew that she was going to Huguo Temple.
Seeing everyone staring at her, waiting for her answer, she said, "I went to the Huguo Temple."
"Huguo Temple?" Ning Chengxiao frowned when he heard this. "Sangsang, what did you do in Huguo Temple?"
Ning Sangsang explained casually, "It's nothing serious. I just suddenly wanted to go to the Huguo Temple to pray for my whole family."
Ning Chengxiao didn't believe what she said, but seeing that she looked normal and he didn't hear what she was thinking, he didn't ask any more questions and just said to her, "Sangsang, if you have anything, you must tell us. Don't keep it in your heart."
"Okay, second brother." Ning Sangsang nodded obediently in agreement.
"Sangsang, next time you go out, tell us so that our family won't worry."
"Okay big brother."
Ning Sangsang nodded obediently.
Ning Hui earnestly told Ning Sangsang, "Sister, tell me where you're going next time, and I'll go with you."
"Okay." Ning Sangsang smiled and nodded, sighing in her heart:
【It feels so good to have family members who care about you. 】
Listening to Ning Sangsang's thoughts, the three brothers of the Ning family all thought about making her feel the warmth of home in the future.
At this time, Ning Xiaotian asked Ning Sangsang, "Sangsang, who did you go to the Huguo Temple with?"
"The third princess." Ning Sangsang answered honestly.
Hearing the word "Third Princess", Ning Xiaotian and the three brothers of the Ning family frowned at the same time.
"Sangsang, why did you go to Huguo Temple with the Third Princess? Did the Third Princess invite you?" Ning Xiaotian frowned. How could his daughter be related to the Third Princess who had such a bad temper?
Ning Sangsang nodded and said, "The Third Princess said she wanted to go to the Huguo Temple to pray for the Queen Mother and invited me. It just so happened that I wanted to go to the Huguo Temple to pray for my whole family, so I accepted her invitation."
Ning Xiaotian frowned upon hearing this and said to her, "Sangsang, the Third Princess is strong-willed and willful. You should try not to associate with her, or you will be bullied by her."
"Dad, my daughter knows her limits. Don't worry, she can't bully me."
Ning Chengxiao warned Ning Sangsang, “Sangsang, the Third Princess is not an easy person to get along with. If she invites you to go somewhere in the future, just find an excuse to refuse and don’t go out with her.”
"Sister, the third princess has a bad temper, so don't get involved with her." Ning Hui also reminded Ning Sangsang.
Ning Chengyan said to Ning Sangsang, “Sangsang, don’t force yourself. If you don’t want to go out with the Third Princess, just refuse.”
Ning Sangsang nodded obediently, and fearing that they would continue talking, she pretended to be very sleepy and yawned.
Ning Xiaotian saw this and said, "Sangsang, you are tired, go and have a rest."
"Okay, then Dad, I'll go and rest first." Ning Sangsang smiled and nodded, then walked straight to his yard.
Back in the room, Ning Sangsang took a bath and lay on the bed thinking about the next plan. The Queen Mother was a grateful person and knew that Yan Xuanjing was the son of her savior. In order to repay the favor, she would definitely find a way to persuade the Emperor to let Yan Xuanjing return to the Great Yan Kingdom. Once Yan Xuanjing returned to the Great Yan Kingdom, she could ask her senior brothers to help Yan Xuanjing get revenge.
The Queen Mother has agreed to help Yan Xuanjing. It should be soon before Yan Xuanjing will be able to return to the Great Yan Kingdom. Now she can contact her senior brothers, Ning Sangsang thought to herself, and hurriedly got up from the bed, then took out a pen and paper from the space and sat at the table to write a letter.
