Chapter 987: Cleared
Gu Yihe tried every possible way, no matter how hard she tried, but Gu Yuanqiong was still daydreaming about the country and the world and couldn't let go of his delusions at all.
Seeing that He'er was depressed, Gao Jing coaxed her for a long time, from dusk till dawn. He carried her up the mountain and accompanied her to watch the sunrise, and finally coaxed her into peace.
Ning Yunxi visited Gao's house, entered the secret room, and told him what happened last night.
"That's just the way it is."
"His Highness Prince Li is stubborn and the Sixth Princess is so angry that she is unhappy."
"Fifth Senior Sister, what should I do?"
Miao Si had a pleasant expression.
"Don't worry."
"Your Highness Prince Li has been obsessed with this for many years, and it is not so easy to let go."
"Persuasion should be done step by step. If you take it slow, you will always get results."
"His Highness Prince Li will certainly listen to the Sixth Princess' advice, but he needs to be given some time to comprehend the truth."
"In addition, there is one very important matter that will help His Royal Highness Prince Li to put aside his rebellious intentions."
Ning Yunxi listened attentively.
"What's the matter?"
Miao Si Kaner.
"Persuade the people of Beizhaotai to return to the service of Emperor Yan."
She analyzed the reasons and explained the difficulties.
"Prince Li was completely defeated, and only then would he reflect on himself, wake up, and accept reality."
"However, plotting is not the way to win people's hearts. After experiencing failure, he may not be convinced. In the future, if an enemy tempts him with benefits, he is very likely to betray his loyalty."
Ning Yunxi is peaceful and harmonious.
"It doesn't matter."
"Brother, treat others sincerely. Sooner or later, he will be moved."
"My main concern is that the people of Beizhaotai are unwilling to return."
"Fifth Senior Sister, you don't know. Just like the Sixth Princess trying to persuade Prince Li, I also tried to persuade him in various ways. But, Senior Sister and the others just turned a deaf ear."
As Miao Si spoke, she opened the secret compartment and took out a letter.
"There is something wrong with the letter I wrote to you. Senior Sister and the others believe that Master's words are false, so of course they don't believe you."
"The suicide note that is truly used to clarify the misunderstanding is here."
Ning Yunxi was surprised.
"The previous one, was it a forged suicide note you wrote?"
Miao Si's speech was clear and fluent.
"No."
"Both suicide notes were written by Master."
"Master instructed me to give you the letter with the problem first, and then give you this letter after Prince Li returns to the capital and ensures his safety."
Ning Yunxi grumbled, a little unhappy.
"Why did mother do this? Are you deliberately teasing me?"
Miao Si told the reason.
"Master said that Prince Li is outside the situation and his safety is uncertain. He really needs the Beizhaotai to protect him."
"So, she used her clever words to guide them and temporarily keep them with King Li."
She handed over the letter and gave instructions.
"In this letter, Master did not mince words and described the early misunderstandings and their causes and consequences in great detail."
"Go to the Ji Mansion and ask the senior sister to read it. She will know the truth."
Ning Yunxi responded and walked away in a hurry.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Miao Si held her back.
"Junior sister, wait a moment."
"Master has something to tell me, and asked me to bring it to you."
Ning Yunxi looked back and stood respectfully.
"What do you want, mother?"
Miao Si also stood up, with a serious expression, and conveyed the words of her mentor.
"Gu Nianting was killed by Master."
"She said, I'm sorry for giving birth to you and causing you to suffer."
"She said that she was useless because she couldn't protect you. You can resent her as much as you want. She is happy with it."
Tears instantly filled her eyes, Ning Yunxi was overwhelmed with emotions and burst into tears.
"I didn't expect that my mother would leave me a plan to help me avenge myself."
"It turns out that there is a mother in this world who is willing to love and protect me."
Miao Si took out a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped her tears.
"Silly sister, I am willing to love and protect you because of my kindness."
In a blink of an eye, Ning Yunxi was already in tears.
"From childhood to adulthood, I have never felt motherly love in Ning Mansion."
"I just can't figure it out. Why do other children have families that love and care, but I don't?"
"Before, I thought that I was not good enough and I was not worthy."
"I never knew that my mother was willing to care for me."
"I don't blame her."
"Knowing that she loves me, I am grateful from the bottom of my heart, but unfortunately, I cannot be with her and repay her kindness..."
As the morning mist dissipated, Ning Yunxi left Gao Mansion, got on a carriage and headed for Ji Mansion.
The misunderstanding was cleared up.
During the busy hours, Ji Feiyan discussed with a group of colleagues and fellow disciples and decided to make a plan to persuade the people under King Li to surrender before returning to Emperor Yan, so that they could join them and return to King Di Jin.
The people of Beizhaotai acted decisively and led their people to surrender to King Dijin.
Gu Yuanqiong was shocked when he heard the news. As he was defeated, he had no choice but to surrender and change his mind to become Prince Jin of Emperor Jin.
Ning Yunxi walked out of Ji Mansion and went to Xu Mansion to visit her fourth sister.
Yesterday afternoon, she was at Prince Dijin's mansion discussing how to persuade Prince Li. When she returned home, it was already night, so she planned to find her fourth sister early this morning to report her safety.
At this time, the Xu family was in a state of flux.
Miao Ya tidied up the clutter on the table.
"Madam is obviously worried about the princess, why don't you go and see her?"
Ning Jiewei prunes flower branches.
"It's good that the third sister is back."
"I heard she's fine, so that's enough. No need to visit her."
Miao Ya put the books back on the bookshelf.
"Between sisters, how can there be any disturbance or no disturbance?"
"I just thought that the matter of Aunt Pan is very difficult. Madam is visiting Yuexi Mansion and asked the princess to give you some advice."
Ning Jiewei put down the scissors, turned the vase, and carefully checked if there were any extra branches.
"That's my business, don't cause trouble for my third sister."
"She has returned from suffering, she should have a good rest and shouldn't worry about the trivial matters of the Ning Mansion."
After Miao Ya finished tidying up, she walked over to her master.
"You support each other and no one owes anyone anything. Why should Madam always feel guilty?"
"I won't give other examples, just say that the princess suffered this time. You were more anxious than anyone else, and you immediately devised a plan to invite the master to the palace to test the emperor's attitude and find out where the princess was."
"Your plan can be exchanged for hers, so we can help each other."
Ning Jiewei arranged the vase and admired the masterpiece.
"It wasn't the Emperor who kidnapped my third sister at all."
"I tried to no avail and was of no help at all. How can I have the dignity to ask Third Sister to help me solve the problem?"
Miao Ya put away the scissors to avoid hurting her master.
"Madam, you are wrong."
"Why do we have to consider the results when planning and doing things? Your intention is the most important."
"The princess values love and doesn't care about the outcome."
Ning Jiewei sat on the soft couch and closed her eyes to rest.
"No matter what my sister does, I can't take credit for it."
Miao Ya walked behind her master and massaged her shoulders.
"How can this be considered as asking for credit? At most, it can be considered as asking for credit."
"Who said that we can't ask for credit?"
“It is proper for those who have made contributions to ask for rewards; it is unacceptable to take credit for the contributions of others.”
"Madam, please do not think that you have no contribution. Although my attempt to test the waters ended in failure, it does not deny your efforts."
"It was you who learned from Aunt Pan that Princess Yuexi had been abducted by thieves and reported it to Prince Dijin in time."
"In my opinion, Madam should be credited with the first merit."
Ning Jiewei disagreed and made a comment.
"Strong words."
As soon as he finished speaking, a servant came to report that Princess Yuexi had arrived.
