Early the next morning, An Ruixiang sent someone to send a reply letter to Ning Fu, hoping that Ning Xue could receive his letter as soon as possible, so that there would be a trace of concern after months of waiting.

After saying goodbye to Duan Ming for a few days, Ning Xue was invited to the water pavilion again, and Yu Mei and Ning Yue followed closely on both sides of the separation.

Seeing this, Duan Ming knew that what he had done last time had been known, and this time he had gained a lot of peace. This young master is not good for you today, and you will know how powerful I am when you enter the door tomorrow...... Duan Ming secretly calculated in his heart.

During the banquet, the two of them only cared about eating with vegetables and did not say a word. Ning Yue saw that the atmosphere was very solemn, so she followed Ning Xue's example and went out to breathe.

When she came, she passed by a chic pavilion built by the lake, and Ning Yue wanted to sit there for a while to relieve her depression. I don't know if Brother Qi is good now, he must be unaccustomed to fighting with the army for the first time...... Recalling that An Ruiqi was very particular about dressing in the past, paying special attention to his own cleanliness, in the dusty and desolate border, I am afraid that he was very uncomfortable...... If it weren't for the second young lady's vacillating mind, Brother Qi would not have wronged himself so much, and fought bloodily on the battlefield to gain fame, so that he could compete with the eldest young master...... The emerald surface of the lake shone with a little light, blinding her eyes, and a few tears flowed quietly.

On the way back, Ning Yue kept circling around the twists and turns of the corridor, but she couldn't find the box, and when she passed by, she suddenly heard a familiar voice talking, so she stopped curiously.

"Childe, Duan Ming, the son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, is here again today with the daughter ......of the Ning Mansion," a deep voice said.

"Oh...... It seems that this marriage is a foregone conclusion...... That's it......," the familiar voice said leisurely.

"Childe, Duan Ming has recently sent several people to secretly inquire about you."

"Oh...... So what did he find out? ”

"Nothing! But he must come here every day, perhaps because he is haunted by the last incident and wants to find trouble with his son......"

"Huh...... Rats and sparrows, not to be a problem! It's a pity that this person is entrenched in a rare quiet place...... Have you heard enough, Miss Yue? After finishing speaking, the door in front of Ning Yue quickly opened, but she saw that only Rong Gongzi was sitting on the main seat leisurely sipping tea, not sweeping her with a sharp gaze, which made her shudder.

"Young Master Rong, please forgive your sins! I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your words, but I lost my way on the way back, and then I heard your voice and wanted to say hello to you, but I couldn't find the right time, so I waited outside the door...... "Ning Yue hurriedly bowed her head, not daring to look at the cold eyes again.

Rong Gongzi walked slowly towards Ning Yue, couldn't hear a trace of footsteps, stopped close to her, gently held up Ning Yue's small chin, and said softly: "Miss Xiaoyue, for me, this is the first and last time to forgive you, don't do such a dangerous act in the future......" If he hadn't stopped him, I'm afraid Ning Yue would have died in the hands of his entourage.

Ning Yue panicked in her heart after hearing this, her body couldn't help trembling, and she quickly nodded like pounding garlic: "You must remember the son's orders!" ”

Rong Gongzi saw that Ning Yue was like a frightened bird, so he let go of her and said slowly: "Just remember...... What you see and hear today cannot be said to others, do you understand? ”

Ning Yue nodded vigorously in agreement.

Seeing that Ning Yue was still young and had no city in his mind, Rong Gongzi let her go, and carefully sent the shopkeeper to guide her.

After Ning Yue returned home with Ning Xue, she was still shocked, and she had many suspicions about the identity of Rong Gongzi in her heart.

One day after lunch, Ning Yue sewed clothes for Ning Xue in the room as usual, probably because she was uneasy about both An Ruiqi and Ning Xue in recent days, and she couldn't sleep well for several days, she actually fell asleep on the table after sewing. With a scream from Yumei, she woke up from her sleep, and it was already evening.

"Someone's coming, someone's dead!" Yu Mei shouted loudly, looking very flustered.

Ning Yue hurriedly opened his eyes and stood up, wanting to see what was happening, but saw a man lying at his feet, the man's eyes were closed, his face was bleeding, and his face was very terrifying.

Everyone in the house heard the noise, and the leaders were Ning Zhenhai and the eldest lady. Both of them are people who are accustomed to seeing the world, and they are more than panicked when they see this situation.

"Xiaoyue, what's going on!" Ning Zhenhai glared at Ning Yue and said sharply.

"I ...... I do not know...... I was sleeping just now, and when I woke up, I saw him fall there......" Ning Yue said tremblingly, "Yumei, did you also see that I was sleeping!" ”

Everyone turned to Yumei, "I...... I just saw that the man was still motionless after so much blood, and he was already so frightened that he didn't pay attention to the other ......," Yu Mei said aggrievedly.

"Call everyone over and see if anyone knows or hears anything!" Ning Zhenhai commanded with a frown. He didn't believe that this matter had anything to do with Ning Yue, so he planned to find out the truth first and then report it to the government.

"What's going on?" The second lady and Ning Xue saw everyone gathered in front of Ning Yue's room, so they came over to ask.

Everyone hurriedly gave way, and when the two approached and saw the person lying in a pool of blood, they were so frightened that they screamed, and Ning Xue was even more frightened and fainted.

"Help the young lady back to her room!" The second lady didn't care about being afraid, and hurriedly sent someone to support Ning Xue.

In the hall, Ning Yue knelt quietly in the middle, still palpitating.

"Aren't there so many of you who have ever been to the courtyard of the second lady in the afternoon!" Ning Zhenhai was very angry when he saw that everyone was eager to clear up their relationship with this matter. "All afternoon, there was no one to clean and guard the yard of the second miss, fortunately the second miss is safe and sound today, if she has any mistakes in the future, she will ask you one by one!" He slammed the cup on the side to the ground, and the hall fell silent.

"Master, you dissipate your anger, Xue'er and I both like to be quiet, and there are few people to serve in peacetime...... After speaking, she looked in the direction of the eldest lady and continued: "What's more, Xue'er and I have already made an appointment to go boating on the lake this afternoon, and it is natural that the servants are not there......"

"Cher...... Did she wake up? Ning Zhenhai asked with a long sigh.

"Xue'er was a little dizzy when she swam in the lake with me today, I was afraid that I was infected with a little heat, and then I saw such a scary scene, and it was common sense to faint, so I wanted to come and rest for a while. Just ......"

Ning Zhenhai turned his head to look at the second lady and motioned for her to continue.

"Master, don't think I don't know how to take care of the overall situation, it's just that Xue'er's room is next to Xiaoyue's room, and now that something like this has happened there, I'm afraid Xue'er will be unstable if she continues to live there......" After finishing speaking, the second lady winked innocently at Ning Zhenhai.

"Or are you a mother-in-law thoughtful...... There are a lot of vacant rooms in the house, you can choose at will, and you can settle her. After speaking, Ning Zhenhai turned his head to look at Ning Yue. The big problem is not solved yet! "Xiaoyue, answer truthfully! Who is that person and how can he be in your room? ”

Ning Yue hurriedly replied: "Master, Xiao Yue really doesn't know!" After lunch today, I fell asleep on the table because of sleepiness, and slept until Yumei called me, and I really don't know who that person is and how he got in! ”

"Yumei, you say, what's going on?" Ning Zhenhai asked sharply.

"Master, Yu Mei went to the lake with the second lady and the second lady this afternoon, and she was not at home at all, how do you know what happened! It's just because it's time for dinner, but Xiaoyue didn't come for a long time, so I kindly called her, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing! Woo woo...... "Yu Mei burst into tears and was aggrieved.

Ning Zhenhai saw that the two of them didn't know, and he was a little at a loss, and they all said that they didn't know, so what was going on with this matter! "Butler! Have you found out who that person is? ”

The butler hurriedly stumbled forward and said, "Master, the villain doesn't dare to move that person at will, lest he be reprimanded by the people of the government, and the person's face is covered with blood, it is really a little difficult to distinguish......

"Bastard!" Ning Zhenhai took the case.

"Sir...... Anger ...... It's just that after many inquiries by the villain, there are a few people in the house who vaguely recognize that person...... The man...... That person seems to be Duan Ming, the son of Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War......"

"What did you say!" Ning Zhenhai fell heavily on the chair after hearing this.
