Chapter 252: Thunderstorm Night

Qin Huai walked down the steps and picked up the umbrella on the ground for Du Yiyi and handed it to Shen Ke, while he stood behind Du Yiyi to hold the umbrella for her.

Because Du Yiyi confessed that she couldn't be seen by outsiders, Xu's mother came a little slowly with Chang Liu, and Lu Xiangxue was just in a hurry, but this rain caused serious damage to her weak body, and she had to lie on the couch to recuperate for a while to remove these yin and dampness.

After Shen Ke and Du Yiyi came back, Li's mother immediately found a pair of Lu Xiangxue's clothes for Du Yiyi to change into, and after Shen Ke changed his clothes, he stayed by the bed, and after feeding Lu Xiangxue who woke up and drinking medicine, he got up and sent Du Yiyi away.

When Du Yiyi returned to Rui Wang's Mansion, it was already night, and Qin Huai learned that Ning Zhiyuan's forsythia who stayed in Zhao Mansion muttered to Qin Huai all the way, and Xu's mother, who had traveled twice, carefully held an umbrella for Du Yiyi, and the group entered from the back door of Rui Wang's Mansion.

Qin Huai sent Du Yiyi to the Rui Wangfu and then went to the Zhao Mansion, and Ning Zhiyuan, who waited for a long time, only then did he know Shen Ke's current situation, as long as Shen Ke was not impulsive, this case would not bring substantial harm to Shen Ke, and the most important thing now was to see how the Criminal Department and the Military Department investigated this case.

Mother Xu was afraid that she would be infected with the wind and cold, so she asked the maid to cook her a bowl of ginger soup before Du Yiyi fell asleep, Du Yiyi drank the ginger soup and lay down early, the hug in the pavilion made her see many fragments in an instant, these memories belonged to Du Yiyi, she didn't know where these memories burst out, and what made her a little frightened was that Du Yiyi dominated her body at that moment.

In the end, is this body really under his control, or is Du Yiyi just temporarily asleep? And Shen Ke's hug made her start to wake up?

Could it be that she had become a sleepy vegetative person after jumping off the tower, while she was clinging to her shell?

The fear of the unknown kept her awake, and she kept wondering when she would disappear, and after the daytime incident, it was closer to her.

I came to this world, where do I go? Is it dead? Or will it go back to the original world?

She can't see her future.

In the dark night, the wind and rain combined with lightning and thunder, the roaring thunder in the torrential rain is even more terrifying, like a ghost from the Yellow Spring, which will come to you at any time, Du Yiyi looked at the purple lightning printed through the window paper in fear, and shrank her body to the innermost corner of the bed in a panic.

The howling wind blew open the windows, and the slanting rain poured in, and the cold wind blew out the only candlestick, like the sound of a dark and quiet night.

Listening to Du Yiyi's call, Bai Wei, who was asleep in the compartment outside the house, walked in, saw the wide open window, and immediately stepped forward.

The cold wind blew out Bai Wei's candlestick again, and a purple lightning fell outside the window, far away in the sky, but it seemed to be bright in front of him.

Bai Wei finally closed the window with great difficulty, and then held a stick against the pane of the window.

"It's broken, and I'll have to call someone to fix it tomorrow!" Bai Wei took out the fire fold in her arms and lit the candlestick.

I don't know if the wind outside blew something down, and the thumping sound kept ringing. Seeing Du Yiyi curled up in the corner of the bed, Bai Wei couldn't help but smile and stepped forward to cover her with the quilt.

"Alright, you go to sleep!" Du Yiyi, who was embarrassed by Bai Wei, embarrassedly twisted the corners of the quilt.

"If the princess doesn't dare to sleep, Bai Wei will go and call the prince back!" In the previous two thunderstorm nights, Du Yiyi was not as afraid as today, looking at the empty fire kang, Bai Wei thought of Ning Zhiyuan in her heart.

"No need, light a few more lights, and then you can go to sleep!" It's been the middle of the night, and it's really embarrassing to call Ning Zhiyuan back for such a small reason.

Bai Wei replied yes, lit all the candlesticks in the house, and saw that Du Yiyi's panicked expression was much better, so she was relieved to leave the house.

The roaring thunder, the lightning that crossed the sky from time to time, the howling wind, and the pouring rain all swallowed up the silence of the night, Du Yiyi covered her ears and curled up in a corner, and she had begun to regret her stubbornness.

The door creaked open, Du Yiyi glanced up, and called Bai Wei softly.

Bai Wei, who had just fallen asleep and kept her heart, hurriedly walked out with her clothes and lamp, and saw Ning Zhiyuan's master and servant who had been drenched in soup outside the house, and shouted happily at the inner room: "Princess, it's the prince who is back!" ”

As soon as Ning Zhiyuan entered the house, Bai Wei called the maids in the side room, and the one who prepared the hot water went to boil the water, the one who prepared the brazier went to make a fire, and the one who boiled the ginger soup to keep warm went to cook the ginger soup, and the herbs for Ning Zhiyuan just found clean clothes to change into, and Wu Qian had already sent the ginger soup, and the stove that was put away after the winter was moved out by Gardenia and Shui Ping. The charcoals that had already been burned were brought up by pomegranates.

Qin Huai had already gone back to his house with Forsythia to take a bath, and the maidservants left the house after finishing their work, and they all went to prepare things for bathing.

Du Yiyi had already gotten up when she heard Bai Wei's sentence that the prince was back, and when Ning Zhiyuan stretched out her hand to bake the fire, she sat aside with her coat on.

Du Yiyi, who drank half a cup of hot tea, was sweating from the charcoal fire, and stood in front of the window before feeling much cooler.

"With such a heavy rain, why did you rush back overnight?" Ning Zhiyuan suddenly ran back in the middle of the night, but after coming back, he was not in a hurry, and she was also a little curious why he wanted to run this trip in the middle of the night.

"I went out to deal with something, and it would be too annoying to think about going back to Zhao Mansion, so I came back!" Ning Zhiyuan didn't blink an excuse, turned his palms and roasted the fire comfortably, on such a thunderstorm night, how could he sleep in Zhao Mansion, and Du Yiyi didn't sleep, this time he did the right thing when he came back in the rain!

"What's so urgent?" Du Yiyi asked.

Ning Zhiyuan twisted his neck and stretched his arms: "The affairs of the imperial court, it is difficult to explain it to you for a while, you go to bed early, I will sleep later!" ”

"I'm not sleepy!" Du Yiyi, who sat down, got another cup of tea, took a sip and said, "Zhao Jingzhi can have contact with Ning Xiao now?" ”

Ning Xiao hadn't moved for a long time, although she was now being strictly controlled by Qi Zhaoyi, she knew that sometimes Ning Zhiyuan would send some letters and the like to establish a relationship foundation between the two.

"It's not bad, Ning Xiao is still young after all, and some things are forgotten quickly, the two of them now communicate once every ten days, you don't have to worry, they will get married in the future, and the relationship will definitely be good!"

Ning Zhiyuan glanced at Du Yiyi, who was staring at the roaring fire, rubbed his hands that had already warmed up and asked, "Is General Shen okay?" ”

"It's okay, Qin Huai should have told you!" She glanced at him uncertainly. "Today's events are not as ...... as you think"

"What's the matter?" Ning Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows suspiciously, Qin Huai said what Shen Ke's situation was, what was different from what she imagined?

"Uh............" Du Yiyi squeezed her eyebrows and scratched her head, and said hesitantly: "In the pavilion today, Shen Ke was too sad to hug me............ That, just hugged it............ It's like a brother hugging his sister............ You don't have too many ideas......"

She finally squeezed out the words and glanced at Ning Zhiyuan, and took a breath of cold air in fright, Ning Zhiyuan's face was gloomy, and his eyes barely shot out of the knife.

"What a Qin Huai who eats inside and out, such an important thing is actually hidden from me!" He slapped the arm of his chair and stomped his foot angrily.

Du Yiyi shut up and squeezed out an ugly smile.

"There can't be a next time!" Ning Zhiyuan's cold gaze swept over Du Yiyi's face, and Du Yiyi's mouth shook and she immediately nodded desperately.

A burning pain in the palm of his hand made Ning Zhiyuan retract his sharp eyes, looking at the skin that had been yellowed by the fire, he knocked the chair back a few points and got up: "I heard that you are drenched in the rain, do you feel uncomfortable?" ”

"Drink the ginger soup, it's fine!"

"That's good. Be careful in the future, a serious illness is just right, how can you get drenched in the rain! Ning Zhiyuan sat beside Du Yiyi.

"You're cold, aren't you also in the rain?" Du Yiyi avoided his gaze.

"There is a constant flow, it's okay to rain like this, my daughter's family, my body is always weaker!" Ning Zhiyuan picked up the teacup and got a cup of hot tea, and watched the tea steam.

Du Yiyi also looked at the steaming tea, and said, "How will this case be investigated?" Do you have a clue? ”

"No, since you have done such a thing, how can you leave clues, most of them are unsolved. Tomorrow morning, someone should mention the reinstatement of General Shen! ”

"After all, the witness of this case is still on the way back to the capital, how can the official be reinstated so quickly!"

Ning Zhiyuan smiled silently, untying the wet hair that was a little uncomfortable on the top of his head, the black hair and the rain dripping.

"Shen Ke's identity, the father should not be able to determine yet, otherwise, according to his temperament, it is impossible to just let people go to steal the graves of An Guogong and his wife, this temptation, I hope General Shen can avoid it unharmed."

This case can only be a temptation for Shen Ke, if Shen Ke behaves a little abnormally today, he may be confirmed by the emperor What he suspects, Shen Ke was drenched in rain today, not many people know this news after all, there can be no emperor's eyeliner in Shen Mansion, Shen Ke is still relieved to deal with these things.
