Chapter 224: Xiao Ling reappears
Chu Junyue looked at her in his eyes, and the hand behind his back made a gesture silently, and a figure on the bushes outside the window quietly left.
"What's wrong?" Ning Ke looked over with some sensitivity, Chu Junyue winked at her, Ning Ke understood, nodded, went to tell Du Ruo some precautions, and then went out with Chu Junyue.
"What the hell is going on? What do you see?" As soon as he walked out of the door, Ning Ke immediately lowered his voice and asked Chu Junyue.
Chu Junyue smiled meaningfully, "You come with me." With that, he led her to the courtyard behind.
Ning Ke didn't know where he was going, and was obediently led by him to the door of a luxurious room, and she suddenly realized, "This is Du Zhong......"
"Hmm, don't you suspect him?" Chu Junyue pulled her to hide under the windowsill by the flower garden, that position was not easy for people inside and outside to notice, he seemed to be stepping on a good point, and he knew everything.
Ning Ke glanced at him deeply, he just smiled, his slender fingers lightly scratched the window, and the window paper cracked silently, just enough to see the scene in the room.
At that time, Du Zhong was in a hurry to take out a box from the drawer, and one hand could not move, so he could only undo the lid of the medicine bottle with one hand, which was such a simple action, but dense beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and his face was pale, as if he was trying to endure pain.
Opened the lid, he used his intact left hand and teeth to untie the gauze on his right hand, slowly revealing an erosive and smelly palm, the gauze ripped to the rotten meat, he couldn't help but gasp, scolded something, gritted his teeth, and sprinkled the powder little by little.
The process of sprinkling the medicine was also extremely painful, he was almost soaked with sweat all over his body, and every fingertip of the pain was trembling, but he was afraid that others would know, so he didn't dare to hum a word.
Du Zhong rested for a long time before he recovered, he bandaged his injured hand, put the medicine box back in its place, turned around and wanted to go out again, walked to the door, suddenly turned back and picked up a box and came out, opened it, and threw the contents out of the window.
It just so happened that the thing landed under Ning Ke's feet - it was the shark bead chain she was wearing on her wrist.
Oh no, it should be said that it was a fake shark bead chain! It was a bracelet she made of red beans! It looked similar to the shark bead chain, but it wasn't real!
At the beginning, Ning Ke also wore it on her hand for convenience, but after saving Yin Qiushui later, she was afraid of being targeted, so she changed it and cleverly poisoned the bracelet!
As long as someone dares to rob it, she pinched the poison, then this person will definitely rot if he is stained with the powder!
And the person who snatched her bracelet last night, don't look at it, it was all done by Du Zhong!
Fortunately, she kept a hand in advance, otherwise she would really have suffered this dumb loss!
However, this Du Zhong is also strange enough, his wife is about to die after giving birth to a child, but he doesn't seem to care, and he still wants to steal her things!
She couldn't help but think of the news of a pregnant woman committing suicide in the hospital that she saw on the modern Internet before, no matter what time a woman is, her status is so humble and pathetic!
"Xiao Ke'er!" she gritted her teeth with hatred, and there was a warmth in her palm, which wrapped her generously and worriedly.
Ning Ke came back to his senses and happened to see Du Zhong going out, so he immediately squatted down and waited for him to go far before coming out.
"What's wrong just now, isn't it comfortable?" Chu Junyue looked worried, and his big hand swept her pulse intentionally or unintentionally, except for being a little fast, there was nothing wrong with it.
Ning Ke shook his head, looked at him seriously, and asked, "Let me ask you, if there is an accident when I give birth, either I die or the child dies, you can only choose one, who do you choose?"
It's a hot, but also stupid topic.
She didn't know why she asked, and she regretted it.
Chu Junyue took it seriously, frowned, pressed her shoulder with his big hand and looked deeply into her eyes, "Xiao Ke'er, what's wrong with you? Are you really uncomfortable? Why do you suddenly ask like this?"
"No, I just asked casually, because Yin Qiushui's matter was touched. Ning Ke smiled, "You didn't ask me." ”
"No......" Chu Junyue shook his head and said extremely seriously: "I won't let that happen, there is no such if! I am not Du Zhong, I will definitely let your mother and son be safe! No one can rob you with me!"
After a pause, he pursed his lips slightly, "I can't live without you......"
So, his answer is to her?
Ning Ke was originally unintentional, but in exchange for such a serious and earnest answer, the warmth in his heart flowed, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
"It's really stupid, my name as a medical immortal is not for nothing, where can I let myself have an accident?"
"Then you must never say such a thing again!
Chu Junyue's attitude was strong and serious, which made Ning Ke even more crying and laughing, and it took a lot of tongues to dispel his doubts, lest he always think that she was uncomfortable.
In the end, Ning Ke still changed the topic with Du Zhong's matter, and she asked him what he planned to do, after all, the two of them were outsiders, and it seemed that it was not easy to interfere.
"Outsiders?" Chu Junyue sneered, "Since he dares to beat your idea, I don't plan to let him go!"
"What do you mean?"
"Wait and see. ”
Chu Junyue dropped such a sentence, and if he really didn't interfere with anything, Ning Ke had a feeling that he was waiting for something.
In the afternoon, Helian Yue ran over noisily, saying that he was going out shopping, and he was about to suffocate in the yard. Chun Yuyan didn't let her go, saying that she was afraid of danger, and letting her guard Ning Ke was the king's way.
Ning Ke saw that this girl's mouth was about to pout to the sky, and couldn't help laughing, and finally persuaded Chu Junyue that he had a chance to go out for a walk.
The biggest feature of Xishu is that there are a lot of medical halls and pharmacies, whether it is a market or a market, they basically sell all kinds of medicinal materials, and the medical city, the medical hall is the most, it is said that everyone knows how to heal.
However, the medical centers here are generally oriented to outsiders, some people with incurable diseases will come here to seek medical treatment, and some rich and powerful families will also come here to hire some doctors to go back.
Helian Yue saw that the street was full of medicinal herbs, and soon felt bored, so he bought some beauty and beauty products casually, and pulled Ning Ke to find a teahouse to eat.
The four of them found a box facing the street, and the window happened to be facing the bustling street, and it was also excellent to drink tea and look at the various states of life.
Ke Ningke sat for a while and found that there seemed to be a lot of mysterious people on the street suddenly, although the clothes were all local, but looking at the walking form and expression, it didn't feel right.
When she was about to talk to Chu Junyue, a sharp gaze suddenly appeared in her direction from the crowd, her heart tightened, and when she looked over again, there happened to be a woman dressed in black wearing a hat veil, revealing a pointed chin, and pink lips.
This is......
Ning Ke felt inexplicably familiar, and it wasn't until she saw the corner of the man's mouth hook up a mocking smile and make a contemptuous gesture at her, that she suddenly realized.
"Xiao Ling!"
"Where?" Chu Junyue quickly leaned over and followed her gaze, only to see a black shadow quickly shuttling through the crowd, and soon walked away.
His face sank, and he snapped his fingers at the roof, and the faint sound of clothes brushing against the stone tiles immediately swept across the roof, and the ghostly arc fell on the street, chasing him in all directions.
Helian Yue stuffed her mouth with a snack made of medicinal food, raised her head in confusion, and blinked stupidly, "What's wrong? What's going on?"
"The fake queen mother. Chun Yuyan couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw her virtue.
Helian Yue swallowed it in one gulp, opened her big eyes and said, "Why is she so ghostly, what is she going to do?"
"I guess I'm here to make trouble again!" Ning Ke quietly took a sip of boiled water, his eyes full of thought.
What does this Xiao Ling want to do? What does he want to do when he comes to Xishu?
Didn't she run away with Concubine Shu's army when she left? What about the Concubine Shu now? Where is the army hiding?
Ning Ke inexplicably had a feeling that a conspiracy was coming, Xiao Ling would not appear for no reason, as long as she appeared, something would definitely happen to the medical city!
After a while, the hidden guard came back, although he didn't appear, but he didn't know how to convey the message to Chu Junyue, Chu Junyue's face was not very good-looking, and Ning Ke guessed that he must have lost it.
"Since she dares to show up, she must be sure to leave. "Perhaps, she just wants to demonstrate, so we have to be careful." ”
Chu Junyue frowned, looked at her and stopped, hesitated for a while before speaking, "I didn't lose it, Xiao Ling went to the City Lord's Fort." ”
"What?!"
Helian Yue and Chun Yuyan reacted more than Ning Ke, they didn't eat anything, and stared at angry eyes, "What is she going to do!"
Ning Ke's eyes turned, and he suddenly thought of something, and stood up suddenly, his tone nervous.
"It's broken! Yin Qiushui!"
Chu Junyue seemed to have thought of this level early in the morning, and calmly grabbed her, "Don't be angry, the ingots are over there, and it will be fine." ”
"No, let's go back now!" Ning Ke always felt uneasy, that Du Zhong was not a good thing, and Xiao Ling went again, who knows what will happen!
So, this afternoon tea ended in a hurry, and the four of them rushed to the city lord's fort in a hurry, but as soon as they entered the door, they heard Du Ruo's crying and grabbing the ground.
"Mother, mother, wake up, don't leave me, don't leave me, okay......"
Then Du Zhong's calm and calm voice came, "Ruo'er, don't cry, your mother is afraid that she will not be able to return to heaven......"
"I don't believe it! Sister Ke'er said that she would save her mother! She won't lie to me!"
"But the reality is in front of you! You must recognize the reality, your father has long said that your mother has lost too much blood and there is no way, but you would rather believe in the coaxing of an outsider than believe in being a father!"
"Woo no...... Sister Ke'er won't hurt her mother's ......"
When Ning Ke walked in, Du Ruo was crying on the head of the bed heartbroken, and Yin Qiushui on the bed was pale and lifeless, just like when she was saving people.
How can this be?
"Sister Ke'er?" Du Ruo looked up and saw her coming, and immediately pounced on her, crying, "Tell me quickly, your mother was not harmed by you, right?
