An Ruixiang and An Ruiqi arrived at Ningfu in a carriage escorted by their entourage. As soon as I stepped into the house, I felt that there was a gloomy fog, and the servants and maids were all depressed and sighed, so they were not depressed. A sharp-eyed servant saw that it was the two young masters of the An family, and hurriedly greeted him. When the rest of the servants and maids heard that the second young master of the An family, who had solved their problems in the past, they also put down their work, walked quickly in front of him, and rushed to complain to him.

"There are many people, and you are slowly talking to me one by one." Although An Ruiqi had already taken medicine, the chaotic noise really made his head hurt again, and he was seriously injured, and he was very difficult to stand, but at this time he had to reassure everyone loudly, which was very difficult. It's just that he once promised Ning Feng that when Ning Feng left home, he would take care of the next cadres in Ning Mansion instead of Ning Feng, and now that Ning Mansion has suffered this catastrophe, he should keep his promise and share the worries of everyone in Ning Mansion. So, he took a deep breath, endured the discomfort, and patiently gave advice to everyone.

"Why are you all gathered here?" The housekeeper who heard the sound saw a group of people gathered in the front yard and shouted angrily. But when he saw the figure of the An family brothers in the crowd, he hurriedly bowed his hands and said flatteringly: "It turns out that the two young masters of the An family are here, and they are far away, please take a seat!" After saying that, he first glanced at the maids behind him, and asked them to follow and serve the two, and then when he saw the two of them walking away, he turned back and reproached everyone: "You bastards, you bastards, actually let the two distinguished guests wait in the front yard for a long time, and see how I will clean you up later!" ”

Everyone shuddered with fright.

The two brothers walked into the main hall, and just sat down, the maids came in turn, serving tea and sending snacks, so lively. Since the murder occurred, no one in the Ning Mansion cares, and every day they see in addition to the masters with sad faces, they are the people they work with, and now they can see the brothers of the An family who have not shown up for a long time, and they are inevitably excited.

As soon as the tea was served, the butler came and said to them respectfully, "I have already passed on the word to the two of you, and he will come to meet you soon, so please wait a moment." ”

"There's a Steward Lao!" An Ruixiang replied.

"The housekeeper is busy with affairs, so don't take what happened just now to heart," An Ruiqi said lightly: "Now that the Ning Mansion is already panicked, if you reprimand the people again, it will only add to the resentment." ”

The butler looked at An Ruiqi with a wince, and seeing that he had no intention of blaming himself, he hurriedly nodded yes.

After about half a pillar of incense, Ning Zhenhai appeared in the main hall. I saw that he was fighting hard, his face was gloomy, his brows were tightly locked, his cheeks were slightly concave, his gray and black hair, and his long gown had been painstakingly tidied up, but he still looked sluggish. It's only been a few months, but he seems to have passed ten spring and autumn. An Ruiqi couldn't help but be moved when he saw him so haggard, but when he thought of Ning Yue, who was now living outside and sleeping in the open, he became sad again. Uncle Ning, who is clothed and fed in Ningfu, is still in such a situation, but poor Yue'er is now alone and helpless, so you can imagine how bleak the situation will be...... There is no time to delay! So, after Ning Zhenhai and An Ruixiang exchanged a few words, An Ruiqi said: "Uncle Ning, this time our two brothers came to your mansion to visit the second lady who was sick in bed. ”

Ning Zhenhai saw that An Ruiqi was so concerned about Ning Xue, he smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand, and said: "If the virtuous nephew is injured, you should also take care of it, and when you children see each other, your uncle will not get in the way." ”

An Ruixiang heard that An Ruiqi was going to see Ning Xue, and hurriedly said goodbye to Ning Zhenhai, and then followed closely behind An Ruiqi, so that he could borrow the light to see Ning Xue.

After a while, An Ruiqi walked to the courtyard where he used to get together with Ning Yue. Since Duan Ming's tragic death, this place has become a taboo place, not to mention that people have gone to the empty building, and even the people have rarely come to clean it because of the taboo. The once quiet and elegant yard has now become overgrown with weeds, desolate and decadent, which is really embarrassing. Only the peach blossom tree, although the flowers and leaves have fallen now, it is still standing resolutely and upright in the courtyard, looking full of vitality. An Ruiqi stepped forward and caressed its trunk, deeply comforted.

"Second brother, you went to the wrong place, this is the place where the murder occurred, Xue'er has already moved elsewhere, you can go with me!" An Ruixiang saw An Ruiqi's injury at the scene, and he was immersed in his feelings, so he opened his mouth to urge.

"In that case, I'm not wrong." An Ruiqi said leisurely.

Seeing him walking straight to Ning Yue's former residence, An Ruixiang knew the plan, but because of his injuries, it was not easy to forcibly pull him away, so he had to follow him while muttering.

One is the difference between men and women, and the other is the disparity in identity, An Ruiqi has never stepped into Ning Yue's boudoir half a step before, and now he opened the door, but he saw that the room was in a mess. The furnishings are simple, and there are only a few pieces of furniture, the most striking of which is the dark black blood stain on the ground that has long since dried up, which makes people feel very uncomfortable to look at.

"Seeing that after Xiaoyue was arrested, no one took ......care of it here," An Ruixiang sighed, the world was hot and cold.

An Ruiqi smiled shallowly at An Ruixiang and said, "Big brother is a person of great affection!" But it's good that I can paint a picture of the scene for later use. ”

"Second brother...... Do you have the foresight to prepare pen and paper? An Ruixiang looked at him with admiration.

"Big brother praises, Ruiqi doesn't have a pen and paper at the moment, it's just that there is no need to rush to draw, and it's not too late to draw again when you go home......," An Ruiqi replied lightly.

An Ruixiang then remembered his second brother's ability to never forget, and nodded again and again.

An Ruiqi knew that such a good opportunity would not happen again, so he paced slowly in the room, carefully inspecting the objects in the room, eager to see every brick and tile in it, so that when he returned home, he could accurately depict what he saw here. When he opened the brocade box at the head of the bed, but saw the jade pendant he left for Ning Yue before he set out for the expedition, his heart couldn't help but sink, this jade pendant was actually discarded in the box, it seemed that Yue'er was not willing to wear it...... He held the jade pendant tightly, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. However, he quickly regained his composure, and after taking the jade pendant into his arms, he continued to inspect the situation in the room.

Time flies, and it's noon in a blink of an eye. An Ruixiang only remembered the three-hour appointment with An Dingguo at this moment, so he urged An Ruiqi to leave immediately to visit Ning Xue, so as not to miss the time to return home. Although An Ruiqi wanted to stay in the room and carefully consider the ins and outs of the murder, it was just that An Ruixiang had promised that he could not go back, even if he was unwilling, he had to obey.

An Ruiqi reluctantly looked at Ning Yue's room, closed the door, and walked towards Ning Xue's room with An Ruixiang.
