Chapter 508: Spy on Nan Candle
Just returned to Fengluan Palace, Ning Xiang knelt in front of Chu Lixue with a puff, "The slave and maid should be damned, the slave and maid actually let the master serve the slave and maid." β
Seeing Ning Xiang's appearance, Chu Lixue really couldn't cry or laugh, why did this girl take it to heart. "Ning Xiang, what are you doing, hurry up."
"The slave and the maid ask for forgiveness from the master." Ning Xiang said seriously.
"Silly girl, I said before I went out that I was acting, you have to cooperate with me, besides, you have taken care of me for so many years, and now that you are pregnant with a child, I should take care of you." Chu Lixue smiled and helped Ning Xiang up.
Although Ning Xiang couldn't understand the matter between Nangong Yue and Xu Zixuan, Chu Lixue could understand. But today's behavior of that Nan Candle made Chu Lixue feel incredible.
Listening to Nangong Yue, this Nan Candle was a teenager Xu Changqing met on the way home in his early years, and he felt that he was pitiful and took him by his side as an apprentice, originally just hoping that his medical skills could be passed on, if he could, it was also a good choice to be his son-in-law, but he didn't expect his daughter to be so miserable, and both of them were given Huang, and they also fell in love with people who shouldn't be liked.
"Niangniang, the slave maid thinks it's a pity for Yue Gongzi and Miss Zixuan, but this royal marriage is all to look after the door." Ning Xiang sighed.
Hearing this, Chu Lixue bowed slightly, indeed, this royal marriage is all about being the right person, and it has to be a combination of eight characters or something, if they can let them have a lover and eventually become a family, maybe Nangong Yue will return to the hearty Nangong Yue in the past.
Thinking of this, Chu Lixue said lightly: "Yi'an, I'll give you a task, if you do it well, this palace will be rewarded." β
"What does Niangniang want Yi'an to do, Yi'an doesn't ask for a reward."
"Okay, do you still have an impression of the southern candle you saw in Zhixintang today? Spying on him to see what he wants to do. Chu Lixue said in a deep voice.
Hearing Chu Lixue instructing Yi'an to monitor that Nan Candle, Ning Xiang had some doubts in her heart, isn't this Nan Candle the senior brother of Miss Zixuan? What are you doing monitoring him, besides, Miss Zixuan has already said that she is going to marry that Nan Candle, so that Yue Gongzi will not meet again in the future.
Since the two of them won't have any contact in the future, what's the point of monitoring Nanzhu? Could it be that he is still afraid that he will marry Miss Zixuan in advance?
Ning Xiang's frowning appearance was seen by Chu Lixue, and said with a smile: "Ning Xiang, don't you think it's strange, why did the palace send someone to monitor that southern candle?" β
"Yes, master, Miss Zixuan is about to marry him, why don't you send someone to spy on him? If he found out and thought that Yue Gongzi did it, and then went to Ning Wang's Mansion, wouldn't it affect Miss Zixuan's reputation? β
"This palace has naturally thought about it, but the southern candle should not be so simple. He looked at Nangong Yue with murderous intent in his eyes, and I don't believe that Miss Zixuan's two fiancΓ©s were killed before marriage. β
"Ah......, Niangniang, do you mean that Miss Zixuan's two fiancΓ©s were killed by that Nan Candle? It's unlikely, that guy seems to be very easy-going. Ning Xiang said with a look of astonishment.
"Hmph, there are many people in this world who know how to disguise, this Nan Zhu and Xu Zixuan grew up together since childhood, they can be described as childhood sweethearts, Zixuan is beautiful and kind, and Nan Zhu is not a broken sleeve, how can she not be tempted by Zixuan girl? It's inevitable that you'll kill people for jealousy. Chu Lixue said lightly.
Hearing this, Ning Xiang swallowed her saliva, she really couldn't imagine that the reason why such an easy-going man would kill someone was because the girl she liked was going to get married, so she killed the other party, so that she could continue to see the girl she liked, isn't this a little too perverted.
However, no matter how she thinks of that Nan Candle, isn't he very easy-going with the guys in the medical hall and those patients? How can a person change so much, is the queen mother mistaken?
"Niangniang, if that Nanzhu is really that kind of person, will Miss Zixuan be fine? He wouldn't kill Miss Zixuan just because he couldn't kill Yue Gongzi. Ning Xiang frowned.
"Hahaha, your girl's brain hole is really big, don't worry, he won't kill Zixuan, he may be trying to kill Nangong Yue now."
"Huh? Kill the prince of Yue? Ning Xiang was surprised. Immediately, Ning Xiang became very calm again, thinking about what kind of place is the Ning Palace, where is the doctor of a medical hall who can enter casually, not to mention, the palace is also invited by the imperial doctor. Thinking about it this way, Nan Zhu can only be in a hurry.
That night, Nangong Yue was drinking and practicing swords in the back garden of the palace, and with a move of the wind sweeping the leaves, he cut off most of the leaves of a tree. At this moment, Fu Erlan walked over, "Husband, still refuses to forgive me?" There are no children anymore, I promise that I will live a good life with my husband in the future, if you like children, I will give you a few more. β
"Fu Erlan, I haven't figured out how to deal with you properly yet, you'd better be safe, and you will be anxious about me, but don't blame me for being unkind." Nangong Yue said coldly.
Hearing Nangong Yue's unkind tone, Fu Yilan didn't dare to challenge his bottom line again, if she really provoked Nangong Yue, she didn't know what the result would be, at the moment, Ning Wangfu didn't treat her well, it was all to take into account the remarks of the outside world, if she waited until this gust of wind passed, Ning Wangfu would definitely not be soft.
Just as Fu Erlan was about to leave, a kitchen servant came over with a bowl of supper, "Second son, you are tired of practicing swords, drink some soup and rest early." After speaking, the little servant quietly retreated.
Seeing this, Fu Erlan was a good opportunity to show herself, "Husband, I know that you are working hard, and I specially ordered the kitchen to give you the soup stewed, and you should eat and rest early." β
"Oh? Is it? Since you said that you ordered someone to stew, then eat it yourself. Nangong Yue said coldly.
What the? She eats? She wasn't hungry at all, what kind of supper did she eat, she originally wanted Nangong Yue to think about her own good, but she didn't expect this guy to be soft and hard.
"Eat quickly." Nangong Yue pointed his sword at Fu Erlan and said angrily.
At this move, Fu Erlan was very frightened, and covered her chest with her hands and said timidly: "Husband, why are you so fierce, people also feel sorry for you, so they let the kitchen make you a supper." β
"Make me a supper? Would you be so kind? Ben Gongzi is still afraid that you will be poisoned, if it is not poisonous, then you will eat it for Ben Gongzi to see. Nangong Yue's cold eyes narrowed slightly.
Fu Yilan frowned slightly, let's eat it, otherwise she won't be able to say a word to Nangong Yue in the future, if she doesn't eat, won't Nangong Yue have another excuse? Thinking of this, Fu Erlan picked up the bowl and ate a few bites, looked up at Nangong Yue's unkind eyes, and ate all the bowl of sweet soup.
Fu Erlan felt the tightness of her abdomen, and immediately bowed and walked away. Fu Erlan rubbed her stomach with her hands as she walked, and scolded endlessly: "This Nangong Yue actually let me eat a bowl of sweet soup, saying that I was afraid that I would be poisoned, would I be so stupid?" Ken he went to see that slut today, and he was not happy, so he was angry with me. β
Back in the room, Fu Erlan leaned on the side of the bed and gradually fell asleep, Taozhu saw that Fu Erlan was sleeping very deeply, and also walked to the outside room to rest. Fortunately, Fu Erlan usually sleeps until dawn, and she doesn't have to work so hard to keep watching.
But the next day it was almost noon, and I still didn't see Fu Erlan get up, Taozhu was worried about Fu Erlan, so he walked into the room, called softly a few times but didn't see Fu Erlan respond, walked up to take a look, Taozhu ran out of the room screaming.
"Oh no, the second lady is dead, come quickly." Momotake ran and shouted in the palace.
The drunk Nangong Yue was woken up by the shouts outside, what? Fu Erlan is dead? Hmph, what kind of trick is she playing? Nangong Yue was very unhappy, and was about to lie down and continue to rest, but was driven away by a rapid knock on the door.
"Second brother, it's not good, Fu Erlan is dead, just now the mother concubine sent someone in to see it, black blood flowed out of her eyes, mouth and nose, and her body was already stiff." Nangong Kai frowned.
Although the news of Fu Erlan's red apricot coming out of the wall was sealed in the mouths of the people who attended the banquet that day, but those people were all watching it, and now this Fu Erlan suddenly died, I don't know if someone will say that Ning Wangfu is killing people and killing people?
Hearing the news of Fu Erlan's violent death, Nangong Yue also woke up suddenly, how could this Fu Erlan suddenly die? didn't have time to think, Nangong Yue hurriedly got up and went to Qingyi Garden with Nangong Kai.
When they came to the courtyard, Fu Erlan's body had been carried out, Taozhu knelt on the side and cried very sadly, and the people in the palace also talked about the strange death of the second lady.
"Father, this Fu Erlan is dead, do you want to notify Fu Ming immediately?" Nangong Kai said in a deep voice.
"Father, let's not inform him yet, we have to think about how to tell the Fu family first, we can't say that we are inexplicably dead." Nangong Xiu said lightly.
Hearing this, King Ning didn't know how to deal with these things for a while, and the discerning person knew at a glance that Fu Erlan was poisoned, and if Fu Ming knew, he didn't know how to make trouble.
"Father, don't let me go into the palace now to beg the queen, Niangniang has always been resourceful, let's see what Niangniang will do." Wei Shuyao said softly.
So far, the first thing Wei Shuyao can think of is Chu Lixue, the queen is an outsider, even if she deals with the affairs of Ning Wangfu, it can be regarded as the internal affairs of the royal family, as long as she doesn't make trouble in the court, she doesn't have to worry.
"Okay, okay, you can go to the palace now and ask to see the queen mother." King Ning urged.
At this time, Yi'an had also returned to the palace to return to Chu Lixue, "Niangniang, the slave maid has been following Nan Zhu last night, he sneaked into King Ning's mansion, and pretended to be a little maid to send sweet soup to Nangong Yue, and then he sneaked out of the mansion and returned to the pharmacy, and there was no more action." This morning, he opened the door with Miss Zixuan and took medicine as usual. β
Sure enough, this Nan Zhu is really impatient, although Zi Xuan agreed to marry him, but with such a strong opponent as Nangong Yue, he should have a lot of pressure.
Just thinking about it, a little palace maid outside the door said: "Queen Mother, the princess of King Ning asks to see." β
"Let her in." Chu Lixue said lightly.
Wei Shuyao asked to see at this time, Chu Lixue had already thought of what was going on, Yi'an just said that Nan Zhu had sneaked into King Ning's mansion last night, and also disguised himself as a small servant to send sweet soup to Nangong Yue, I am afraid that something happened to Nangong Yue after eating this sweet soup, thinking of this, Chu Lixue said lightly: "Yi'an, you go and ask the imperial doctor to come over, maybe he will go with the princess of King Ning." β
As soon as the words fell, Wei Shuyao walked in, and when she saw Chu Lixue, she knelt on the ground and cried: "Niangniang, Niangniang, you have to save Ning Wangfu." β
