Chapter 307 - The last chance (1)
Suddenly, one night, just when she was about to fall asleep, Ning Yuxuan rushed into her room, scooped her up from her bed, and covered her mouth before she had time to scream. Frantically das.h.i.+ng the entire way, he brought her to a carriage that was waiting outside. She almost ended up puking her guts out from being carried like that. Dengxin and packed bundles were waiting inside the carriage.
---
When the carriage finally stopped, she saw that she had been brought to a small, barren village.
”Madam, please stay here for a while.” Guibai took the packed bundles down from the carriage and led her and Dengxin to a quiet courtyard in a farmer's home.
Ji Man blankly nodded.

Two days later, Dengxin brought news back that the second prince had revolted.
The second prince, Zhao Li, had been born with crippled legs. The most fortunate event that happened to him was marrying the Yuzhen princess, Pengyue. Not only did Pengyue get him a t.i.tled prince position, she helped him by borrowing soldiers from Yuzhen to kill Zhao Jue, the unfilial person that had killed his own father.
Actually, to describe what had happened frankly, the second prince had kept a low profile for many years. The former third prince had recently prevailed over the first prince, and both sides had suffered losses. While the former third prince had his guard lowered in the midst of his happiness, Zhao Li had brought soldiers to the capital by using the excuse of coming back to congratulate the new emperor.
Slightly furrowing her brow, Ji Man asked, ”How's the marquis doing?”
Dengxin shook her head. ”The situation is very chaotic over there. This servant doesn't know how the marquis is doing either.”
Nie Sangyu's heart stirred restlessly in worry. Ji Man placed a hand to cover it for her. Frowning, she told her, ”Your man is a cunning nine-tail fox. Nothing will happen to him.”
---
Half a month later, people finally came from the capital and brought her back to Marquis Moyu's estate.
However, the people that came for her weren't servants from the marquis's estate. It was officers and soldiers.
---
For some reason, when Ji Man looked at the wheelchair in the middle of the courtyard, and Pengyue, who was standing next to it, she surprisingly felt less unsettled.
Marquis Moyu, who was sitting in a chair without the slightest injury, looked down at her, who was kneeling on the ground.
”Nie Sangyu, do you admit to your crime?”
Ji Man asked with a smile, ”What is the crime this time?”
