Chapter 402 Departing to the East

"Queen, Forsythia privately believes that we should go back to the south to pray."

Her eyes were wandering, and what Forsythia said seemed reasonable, but in fact, when Su Mumu heard it, Su Mumu's heart froze.

"Why do you want to go back to Nan to pray?"

Deliberately asking questions, forcing Forsythia to be overwhelmed.

"According to Forsythia, Xihe must be as the queen said and can no longer be used as a place of refuge. Donglin and Beijing also want to seize the queen for use by other countries, so it is safest for the queen to return to Nanqi.

.”

Hearing this, Su Mumu frowned. Although Forsythia was smart, she never put her mind into strategy. Now that she said these words, someone might have taught her.

"I didn't expect Forsythia to learn plans and strategies."

Smiling and feeling the pulse coming from her fingertips, Su Mumu's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.

"Did Nan Muchen give instructions to Forsythia?"

The fluctuations at her fingertips instantly became abnormal. Su Mumu let go of Forsythia's hand, turned around sadly, and walked forward alone.

"Queen, it's Forsythia...it was Forsythia's own idea."

He shook his head in disappointment. "Forsythia, you have been with me for just this long, but you have not changed your loyalty to Nan Muchen. It seems that I am treating you as a sister for nothing. You can go."

A winding road led straight into the distance, and Su Mumu's slender figure walked on it, feeling indescribable loneliness and fear. Forsythia followed a few steps behind Su Mumu without saying a word.

"Why don't you leave yet?"

Su Mumu couldn't help but turn around and look, and found Forsythia trailing behind her like a tail.

"Queen, although Forsythia can never change her loyalty to the emperor, because Forsythia has been trained since childhood, she cannot change the fact. However, Forsythia's heart for the Queen is also true. I hope the Queen will not ignore Forsythia because of this. What's more,

The queen's current condition is not suitable for traveling alone, so please forgive me for the time being and let Forsythia accompany you."

Su Mumu turned her head indifferently and walked without stopping for a long time.

She felt extremely tired all over. This was an experience she had never experienced before. Su Mumu found a wooden pillar by the roadside and sat down to rest. Forsythia hurriedly opened the kettle she brought with her and let Su Mumu drink to moisten her throat.

Taking the kettle handed over by Forsythia, Su Mumu drank several large sips.

"Thanks."

After being moisturized, Su Mumu's smoking throat felt much better. She said a strange thank you, which made Forsythia so sad that she didn't speak again for a long time.

"Queen, no matter where we plan to go on foot, we won't be able to reach it. How about asking Forsythia to arrange a carriage for the Queen to travel on her behalf?"

Being pregnant again made Su Mumu realize that some things could only be accommodated temporarily. Putting away her stubborn temper, Su Mumu nodded in agreement.

A whistle sounded, and the shadow guard emerged from the darkness to follow.

When she saw clearly that the man masked in black cloth standing in front of her was Gale Feng, Su Mumu gave up her struggle completely.

"Haifeng, how is Nan Muchen?"

When leaving, after all, Nan Muchen hadn't woken up yet, and couldn't let go of the worries in her heart. Su Mumu couldn't help but ask Ji Ying who appeared in a flash.

"My subordinates are always guarding the queen, so they don't know the emperor's current situation."

Su Mumu bowed apologetically and replied, but Su Mumu was speechless after hearing this.

"Haifeng, the Queen's current condition is not suitable for hiking. Go get a carriage over."

Looking at Su Mumu who was sitting on the wooden pier with a tired look on her face, Gale Wind said yes.

"Wait a minute."

Su Mumu spoke to stop Gaofeng who was about to leave.

"Did you accept some other instructions from Nan Muchen and deliberately lead me to the place he had already arranged?"

You look at me, I look at you. Forsythia and Gale, who were questioned by Su Mumu, looked at each other.

"Aside from protecting the queen's safety, the emperor has not given any instructions."

The reaction was normal and in line with normal psychological mapping. Su Mumu was confused and gave up the inference completely.

"Go ahead."

Gale immediately took orders to find the carriage, while Forsythia stayed by Su Mumu's side to protect her safety.

Not long after, the sound of rolling wheels could be heard on the road. A relatively neat carriage driven by Gaofeng came to Su Mumu.

Being helped into the carriage by Forsythia and leaning on the soft cushions, Su Mumu quickly fell asleep with heavy eyelids.

When Su Mumu woke up again, she raised the curtains of the car and looked outside. Based on the direction, she found that the carriage was heading towards Nanqi.

"Hast wind stops."

After hearing Su Mumu's call, the driving force quickly pulled the reins and turned around to ask for instructions in a low voice.

"Queen, what are your orders?"

Making a decisive decision, Su Mumu directed Gale to head east.

"Queen, where are we going?"

Forsythia, who always paid attention to her words and actions to avoid arousing Su Mumu's resentment, asked carefully and softly.

"Go to Donglin."

After hearing what Su Mumu said, both people inside and outside the car were silent for a while.

"Queen, Donglin has framed us a lot. Even in Nanqi Palace, we almost got into Donglin's trap. Why do we still want to defect to Donglin now?"

Completely unable to understand Su Mumu's plan, Forsythia gave up her silence and spoke out to remonstrate.

"Motivated by interests, even my natal family, Beijing, would not do anything unfavorable to me. Now that I have defected to Donglin, I naturally have my reasons. No need to say more."

Being treated coldly by Su Mumu, Forsythia had no choice but to shut up.

The carriage drove all the way east and entered the east border.

After handing over the customs clearance document, Forsythia collected it and carefully put it into her arms.

"Forsythia, why do you take care of me so carefully?"

As if she had calculated that she would leave Xihe, Forsythia who followed her out actually carried a customs clearance document with her, which made Su Mumu feel very unhappy.

"I'd like to report to you, when I got on the bus in Xihe, Forsythia took it upon myself to go back and bring out the customs clearance document and this for my queen."

As she spoke, Forsythia took something out of her arms. It was the amber pendant that Su Mumu loved like a treasure.

Su Mumu took it with emotion and put the amber pendant on her body again.

I had thrown the amber pendant into the jewelry box out of anger, but fortunately, Forsythia was kind enough to know that she was reluctant to part with it, so she thought of taking it out.

"Thanks."

After hearing Su Mumu thanking her one after another, Forsythia sadly sat back on the side of the carriage. She buried her head deeply in her arms, looking thoughtful.

Not wanting to talk to Forsythia beside her, Su Mumu continued to close her eyes and rest.

Arriving at the outskirts of Dongdu, the long journey and the constant jolting of the carriage made Su Mumu feel more and more uncomfortable. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she opened the curtains and leaned out of the carriage to retching.

A group of people in simple clothes happened to be passing by. One of them pointed in the direction of Su Mumu and seemed to be discussing something.

Helping Su Mumu lie back in the car, Forsythia neatly lowered the car curtains. Through the gap in the curtains, she observed the pair of people Su Mumu was pointing at.

After stopping the carriage Su Mumu was riding in, the leader sat up straight on his horse, raised his hands and spoke loudly into the carriage.
