Chapter 133 She is still a virgin
Shen Nanqiao blinked hard to make sure that he was not hallucinating because he was too tired.
Because Shen Jingyi did come up from the tunnel inside the palace, and the exit under the floor was extremely secretive and could not be seen from the surface at all.
The laws of the Great Chu clearly stipulate that officials are not allowed to set up secret passages in their private residences.
She subconsciously turned around to look at Ning Su, and seeing him raise his eyebrows slightly, she knew that this must be the first time he saw it.
"It seems that you are not as familiar with the layout of this palace as you thought, right?"
Although she said those joking words, there was a storm in her heart.
Under the feet of the emperor and in front of the eyes of the factory guards, such a concealed tunnel was dug without anyone noticing.
In other words, if the Ninth Prince is ambitious enough, this tunnel may lead directly to the imperial palace.
When the time comes for a palace coup, as long as we attack the old nest directly, the entire Chu Dynasty will be changed.
However, what was even more surprising at the moment was that after Shen Jingyi was untied, she actually sat down directly.
The posture seemed very familiar, without any embarrassment of a prisoner.
The two of them were obviously communicating something, but I couldn't hear the specific content.
Moreover, apart from the two of them, there was no other maidservant or eunuch in the whole house, which showed that they were talking about something that could not be revealed.
Shen Nanqiao was a little anxious.
"What should we do if we can't hear what they are saying?" She suggested in a low voice, "How about I wait for you here and you go and listen?"
Although she had some personal emotions in her words, she did not forget that the purpose of their trip was to scout the enemy situation.
Ning Su glanced at her.
"Leaving you here alone? Isn't that bad?" He counted casually, "This house is not very clean. I heard that an official in the previous dynasty died in this house. It seems... he was hanged, with his feet dangling from the tree. I just don't know which tree it was..."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Nanqiao grabbed his collar.
"Why don't we go together? It suddenly occurred to me that having more people can help you take care of others, and there are more eyes. I can also help you take a private look and get some fresh air."
This girl is quick to change her attitude according to the situation.
Before he could finish his words, Shen Nanqiao felt someone holding his head and gently burying it in his arms.
After a few ups and downs, when I opened my eyes again, I was already standing firmly on the eaves tiles.
Before she could completely settle down, she suddenly felt like she stepped on something.
Like a human foot.
Thinking of the hanged ghost Ning Su had just mentioned, she forced herself not to scream.
While he covered his mouth with his hands, his feet slipped and he was about to fall.
Shen Nanqiao's mind was blank as he waited quietly for the disaster to come, but the next second he was pulled back into Ning Su's arms.
"Pay attention."
Shen Nanqiao was so nervous after surviving the disaster that he missed the leisurely smile on Ning Su's face.
She could clearly hear the conversation between Princess Ninth and Shen Jingyi under her feet, which made her forget her own situation temporarily.
"The stuff has been sent over. You can just stay in the place I arranged for you for a while."
Shen Jingyi looked at the Ninth Princess's face and expression, and saw that her brows were calm and gentle, and she had no intention of taking advantage of anyone's misfortune, so she slowly spoke.
"No merit, no reward. We just met by chance. Princess, you must have some ulterior motive for helping me. Let's be frank and honest. There's no need to beat around the bush."
The Ninth Princess walked slowly to her side and sat down next to the table.
"I just like talking to smart people. Now that it has come to this, I won't hide anything." The Ninth Princess's delicate face was covered with a layer of calculation, "You want to be the wife of the prince of Pingyuan Marquis's Mansion. I can help you realize your wish."
Shen Jingyi placed her hands on her lower abdomen and spoke slowly.
"Then what does the princess want? Shen Nanqiao's life?"
Shen Nanqiao clearly felt the hand around her waist tighten, which was not surprising.
Since the Ninth Princess was willing to take the risk to help a concubine whom she had never met before, it was natural that she saw something she wanted in her.
If this versatile princess's target is Ning Su, then the first person she would want to eliminate must be herself.
only……
"She is already the Ninth Prince's Consort, why does she still want to do such a thankless task?" Shen Nanqiao looked back with difficulty in Ning Su's arms, "Even if I die, you may not marry her."
If I wanted to get married, I would have done it ten years ago.
Ning Su snorted coldly.
"The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant."
This doesn't make sense. To put it another way, if the Ninth Prince overthrew Emperor Ming, the Ninth Prince's wife would be the rightful queen.
Eliminating me would not help her in her mission of ruling the country.
Unless... she was just venting her anger.
Then the Ninth Princess glanced over indifferently from below.
"Why do I want her life? I want her to live forever and watch me climb to the top step by step."
Shen Jingyi nodded, she understood this feeling.
The best way to treat an enemy is not to send her to hell, but to let her live and watch you prosper.
"What are your plans, Princess?" Shen Jingyi touched her belly and laughed at herself, "I am now like a lost dog. Even if I want to fight back, I am afraid there is no way."
The Ninth Princess smiled.
"Sending the severed finger to Prince Ning as a test is just the first step, isn't it?" She stroked the seven-strand hairpin on her temples. "I heard that the prince was very anxious and went to ask for help from his uncle right away."
Shen Jingyi's eyes lit up.
He still cares about her, doesn't he?
The Ninth Princess curled her lips calmly and said, "It's a pity that the factory official seemed to be intimate with his wife behind closed doors and ignored him."
Shen Nanqiao, who was on the eaves, blushed. She had accidentally hit the nail on the head.
Shen Jingyi's eyes turned cold and she sneered.
"How can a eunuch be intimate with her and look at pornographic pictures together under the quilt?"
Ning Su let out a soft laugh and lowered his voice to whisper in Shen Nanqiao's ear.
"You can try it next time."
It must be said that this idea was exactly what he wanted.
Shen Nanqiao tried hard to ignore the wetness in his ears.
"I don't have anything like that."
"I have it." The factory official was obviously very interested in this topic. "I have confiscated quite a few of these banned books from the palace. Even if you want to read rare books from past dynasties, I have them too."
If this place wasn't too high, Shen Nanqiao would have had the urge to turn around and go down. How could his temperament change so drastically after just one night?
Where did the cold and a little awkward Ning Su go?
The Ninth Princess below paused.
"The current emperor has been very fond of Ning Su, and he has been trying to cover up his guilt over the years by deliberately spreading rumors that he is looking for a legitimate wife. The more he does this, the more people will believe that he has been castrated." She chuckled, "So it is very likely that it is not what you think, he is still a genuine and decent man."
Shen Jingyi obviously didn't think so. She waved her fingers and swore.
"That may not be the case. I have been observing Shen Nanqiao these past few days. She is definitely a virgin."
