Chapter 481: You Are The Greatest Danger

Su Ying’s expression froze. Could it be that there were a.s.sa.s.sins last night?

“What kind of noise?”

Zhou Qing frowned and said, “It sounded like… the bed was shaking and there were also some m.u.f.fled groans. I couldn’t hear it clearly.”

Su Ying was speechless.

She then took a sip of water without any change in her expression. “You must

be mistaken.”

Zhou Qing blinked in confusion. Did she hear wrongly? However, the noise last night seemed to have gone on for a long time.

“It could also have been a rat,” Su Ying said with certainty.

Zhou Qing nodded. “That was possible.”

Su Ying felt that it wasn’t necessarily a good thing for a maidservant to have

such sharp hearing.

After washing up, a maidservant served breakfast.

The table that could seat eight people was once again filled to the brim.

However, compared to dinner, although there was more variety for breakfast, the portions were much smaller. Each plate only had one or two exquisite pieces, and Su Ying gobbled every piece down in one gulp each time. She finished off the entire table of food without any pressure.

After having breakfast and taking a breather, Su Ying and her convoy continued on their way.

However, just as the convoy left the city, something happened behind them.

“Your imperial Highness, the shaft on Miss Zhou’s horse carriage broke. The carriage can’t move anymore.” The guard stepped forward and explained the situation to Su Ying.

Aside from the prison cart at the back, there were only two horse carriages which were carrying Su Ying and Zhou Xiangrong.

Su Ying didn’t want this small episode to affect the progress of the convoy. “Let her ride on my horse carriage then.”

“Yes, Your Imperial Highness.”

Zhou Xiangrong and her maidservant Xin Yue boarded Su Ying’s horse carriage.

Zhou Xiangrong looked apologetic. “Thank you, Your Imperial Highness.”

“Sit tight. Let’s go.”

The convoy continued to move forward at a speed that could jolt people to death.

Su Ying found a relatively stable position in the horse carriage, then sat cross-legged and began to circulate her energy. This way, her body would feel more comfortable when she got out of the carriage.

Zhou Xiangrong leaned firmly against the corner to prevent herself from being tossed out.

The convoy only stopped at noon.

Su Ying opened her eyes and exhaled gently. Zhou Qing stepped forward to help her up and said, “Your Imperial Highness, let’s get out of the carriage and give your muscles and limbs some exercise.

In reality, Su Ying was still fine. She had been circulating her energy throughout her body so she felt much better than yesterday.

“Mm-hmm. Let’s go down and eat something.”

Su Ying turned around and saw Zhou Xiangrong leaning against the carnage with a pale face. Even Su Ying herself couldn’t stand the b.u.mpy ride, let alone Zhou Xiangrong. “Are you alright, Miss Zhou?

Zhou Xiangrong nodded with difficulty, but before she could speak, she quickly covered her mouth and rushed out of the carnage to vomit.

Xiao Jin got off his horse and looked at Zhou Xiangrong, who was vomiting until she was dizzy. He said to Su Ying, “Your Imperial Highness, stand further away in case it affects your appet.i.te.

Zhou Xiangrong’s back stiffened.

Su Ying listened to the sound of Zhou Xiangrong vomiting weakly and nodded.

■’You’re right. Zhou Qing, give Miss Zhou those dry food later.”

“Yes, Your Imperial Highness.”

After Zhou Xiangrong vomited until she almost emptied her innards, Xin Yue helped her to sit under a tree at the side.

“Eldest Young Miss, are you alright? Drink some water first.

Zhou Xiangrong was feeling really terrible. She wiped herself clean and rinsed her mouth with water. After Xin Yue took a plum and fed it to her, Zhou

Xiangrong felt better.

“I don’t know why the Empress is in such a hurry. Can’t she slow down? What difference does it make if she reaches the capital city one or two days later?”

As soon as Xin Yue finished speaking, she suddenly met Zhou Xiangrong’s icy stern eyes and became so frightened that she kept quiet at once. “Your servant deserves to die.”

-Xin Yue, that’s the Empress. If I hear you show any disrespect to the Empress again, don’t blame me for punishing you.”

“Yes. Your servant will not dare to do it again.

Zhou Qing was standing behind the two of them and heard everything they said. When she heard the maidservant’s displeasure with Su Ying, she was a little infuriated, but fortunately, that girl Miss Zhou knew her place.

“Miss Zhou, you vomited just now. Her Imperial Highness took pity on you and asked me to bring some food over for you. Eat something, Miss Zhou.

Xin Yue helped Zhou Xiangrong to her feet.

“Please thank Her Imperial Highness for her concern.

Zhou Qing handed the things to Zhou Xiangrong and left.

Su Ying was walking around a big tree. She really didn’t want to sit down anymore.

Xiao Jin heated the steamed bun and handed it to her. “Eat something first.” The steamed bun was crispy from Xiao Jin’s roasting. It made crackling sounds as she bit down and tasted particularly fragrant.

The outer skin of the steamed bun was roasted until it was slightly charred.

When Su Ying ate it, it left black stains all over her mouth.

Xiao Jin took a handkerchief and carefully wiped her lips. “Your Imperial

Highness is turning into a grime-coated cat.

Zhou Qing felt that she didn’t know anything about love and affection, but she felt that there was something wrong with the way Lord Siao looked at the Empress. He was sticking so close to her that it was hard to pull him away! Did he know what he was doing could get his family and his whole clan executed?

“Lord Siao, let me serve Her Imperial Highness.

Zhou Qing walked forward and took the handkerchief from Xiao Jin’s hand. She then stood between the two of them to prevent Xiao Jin from getting too close to Su Ying. She wet the handkerchief with water and wanted to wipe Su Ying’s face for her, but Su Ying took the handkerchief from her hand and said, “I can do it myself. You should also eat something. We have to continue on our journey soon.”

“Yes, Your Imperial Highness.”

Xiao Jin glanced at Zhou Qing stonily as if he was thinking about where he could stab her so that she could die faster!

They only had 30 minutes for their break. Once the time was up, Su Ying returned to the horse carriage punctually.

Xin Yue helped Zhou Xiangrong into the horse carriage. After resting for a while, Zhou Xiangrong’s complexion had improved substantially.

“If you really can’t stand the jolting, I will arrange a new horse carriage for you when we reach the next city. Let a few people escort you back to the capital. You can go back at the pace you are comfortable with.”

Zhou Xiangrong shook her head with a determined expression. “Your Imperial Highness, I am fine. I only had stomach discomfort from eating too fast in the morning. I am fine now.”

As if she wanted badly to prove that she was fine, Zhou Xiangrong forced herself to endure the rest of the journey.

The night before they approached the capital city, they arrived at a courier station 20 miles outside the city and stopped there.

Su Ying couldn’t help feeling excited when she thought about how she would be able to see the children the next day.

When Xiao Jin saw Su Ying smiling, his mood also improved.

Su Ying was wondering how to get the little wolves out of her interspatial store. She couldn’t simply let them appear out of thin air when she returned to the palace.

There was a town not far from the courier station. Before the sky turned dark, Su Ying wanted to go there and see if she could find an opportunity to allow the wolf cubs to appear legitimately.

“Where do you want to go?”

When Xiao Jin entered the room, he saw that Su Ying had already changed into a coa.r.s.e-cloth dress.

“I want to go to the town ahead to take a look. I didn’t get anything for the children on the way back. Before I left the capital city, I promised them that I would bring them gifts.”

“I’ll go with you.”

Su Ying nodded and instructed someone to prepare two horses.

When Zhou Qing walked over with the teapot, she saw Su Ying and Xiao Jin walking out.

“Where are you going, Your Imperial Highness?

“I am going with Lord Xiao to check out the nearby area. You can wait for me at the courier station.”

Zhou Qing glanced at Xiao Jin worriedly. “I’ll accompany you, Your Imperial Highness.”

“No need. I will protect Her Imperial Highness well.”

“You are the greatest danger in front of the Empress!” Zhou Qing thought. Zhou Qing was anxious inwardly, but there was nothing she could do. She could only watch Su Ying and Xiao Jin leave helplessly..
