Her Majesty Was Pregnant Before Entering the Palace

Jiang Ning smiled and said: "Gucheng, you speak much better than before! I never asked you, do you not like to talk?"

Gucheng pursed his lips and said, "I stuttered when I was a child and tried to speak as little as possible, so that's why. It's not that I can't speak. Miss Qi doesn't need to worry about it."

"So that's it."

Jiang Ning looked down at the retreating house and grabbed his clothes with both hands, "Gucheng, how did you get hurt on your face?"

"Swords have no eyes, and injuries are normal."

"Is my uncle injured?"

"There are some, it doesn't hurt."

"That's good. But if you don't protect your uncle by your side, how can you come to the city?"

"It's the general's order."

"Uncle is really good at predicting things. Let's go to Liu's house quickly!"

The Liu family she was talking about was Liu Lang, the husband's family of the head of Ling'an County.

As the county lord, Ling An has her own county lord's mansion, but she only lives there by herself, while Liu Lang and his two children still live far away.

When Jiang Ning arrived, she saw that there were guards guarding the Liu family outside.

"Send me in." Jiang Ning whispered to Gucheng.

"Who is Miss Seven looking for?"

"Looking for the Lord of Ling'an County." Jiang Ning said softly, "King Zhao's people took the Lord of Ling'an County as a hostage and forced Prince Wutong to help him. Only by rescuing the Lord of Ling'an County can we relieve uncle's siege."

Without a helper like Prince Wutong, the Queen and Li You would not be able to make any trouble with just a few thousand royal guards.

Gucheng nodded, stopped talking, and led her to avoid the eyes and ears of Jin Yiwei, and lightly climbed over the high wall, landing in Liu's yard.

Liu's house was in a mess.

From time to time, servants hurried past, and there were faint sounds of crying from somewhere.

Jiang Ning saw a maid who looked familiar, so he quickly went over to catch her.

The maid was frightened and was about to scream, but Gucheng blocked her mouth with a sword.

"...Woo, you guys?" The maid's eyes widened and she looked at him in horror.

"Don't be afraid, we are not bad people." Jiang Ning hurriedly explained, "Are you someone close to the Lord of Ling'an County?"

"Yes, slave Taohua." The maid came to her senses, looked at Jiang Ning intently, and immediately recognized her, "Oh my god, you, you are not..."

"Yes, I am the Crown Princess. Take me to see the Lord of Ling'an County."

"But……"

"The person who puts you under house arrest is King Zhao, and I am the Crown Princess. Do you think I will help him?"

"Ah, yes!" Taohua said in a panic, "In that case, come with me quickly. The county master and the others are in the backyard."

Jiang Ning and Gucheng followed her left and right, passing through several doors and corridors, and finally came to a remote courtyard.

This definitely doesn't look like a place where the head of the family lives.

Taohua stammered in explanation: "To be honest with the Crown Princess, the imperial guards outside are very fierce and come in from time to time to show off their violence. Several servants have been taken away because of resistance. I don't know whether they are alive or dead. Everyone in the family has Terrified."

"Okay, take us in."

"Princess, come this way."

Taohua stepped forward and knocked on the door cautiously.

A frightened voice came from inside: "Who is it?"

"It's me, Taohua. Grandma Sun, open the door quickly."

The courtyard door creaked open, and a woman looked nervous. When she saw it was a peach blossom, she just breathed a sigh of relief, and saw Jiang Ning and Gucheng behind her. She was so frightened that she immediately closed the door.

Taohua quickly blocked the door: "They are not bad people, she is... a former friend of my county boss, and she is here to help the county boss. Please invite this young lady in!"
