Prequel: Chapter 12 The Ning Brothers and Sisters
"Okay, don't be afraid, we've cleaned up the people outside." But in a moment, Yu Zhi's sword returned to the carriage.
He casually took the handkerchief beside Gan Shunhua from the carriage, and without saying a word, he wiped the blood on his sword as if no one was around.
"Hey, what are you doing-" Gan Shunhua was so angry that she was dying, this was her personal handkerchief, or a gift from Yin Zijue to him. She snatched the handkerchief back from Yu Zhi's hand: "Who let you take my things, who are you, you." She was so angry that she forgot her honorific title.
"What are you yelling about, but it's just using your handkerchief, stingy." Yu Zhi looked at her with disgust.
When Gan Shunhua and Yu Zhizheng were at a stalemate, Xiao Guogong asked Gan Shunhua outside the carriage for instructions to get on the carriage.
Gan Shunhua simply ignored Yu and let Xiao Guogong get in the car.
The carriage was originally spacious, but the three of them seemed a little crowded, and as soon as Xiao Guogong got into the car, he smelled the smell of the car, and his heart was full of black lines, but then he said: "Her Royal Highness, it is Ning Nuoye's person." โ
Looking at Gan Shunhua's puzzled look, Yu Zhi added on the side: "It's the concubine of the Spirit King." โ
"Alas, it's so uneasy to come out to investigate the case." Gan Shunhua went through the matter in her mind and asked, "What is the name of that eldest daughter?" โ
"Back to Your Highness. "Ning Nuo You" Xiao Guogong replied, observing the look on Gan Shunhua's face from time to time.
"Just now, Yu Zhi and Bengong said that the Spirit King favors the concubine, and Bengong is thinking it is strange? Now it seems that this Ning Nuoyou is so stupid, what is it strange that he can get the favor of the Spirit King? Gan Shunhua showed a smug smile on his face, and Xiao Guogong echoed a few words after catching this smile, and then stopped talking.
"There are still three days to go to Nanling, and we will talk about it when the palace settles down in Nanling. It's not too early, find an inn to rest first, and then set off tomorrow! Gan Shunhua covered his mouth and yawned, his face full of anguish: "Arrange more people at night, and if there are assassins again, you will kill them, and you don't need to report to the palace." โ
"Yes, the minister went to arrange it first. Retire first. Xiao Guogong clasped his fists and saluted, and then retreated from the carriage. Yu Zhi was obviously dissatisfied with Gan Shunhua's attitude towards this matter, and was about to say something to her, when he saw that she had already put her head to the side and fell asleep.
Yu Zhi was very helpless, but thinking that she had been in the car for so long today, she was frightened again, maybe she was tired, so she hurriedly took off her coat and covered her body to avoid her cold, and then admired her sleeping for a while and got out of the car to find Xiao Guogong. He just wanted to find a place to settle down quickly, lest Gan Shunhua sleep comfortably in the car or catch a cold, he would definitely feel distressed, and that would be more than worth the loss.
"You're awakeโ" Yu Zhi helped Gan Shunhua sit up, held the medicine bowl on the side, stirred a few times with a spoon, and fed the medicine to Gan Shunhua,
"Hongu doesn't want to drink." Gan Shunhua only felt a little headache, and seeing him so intimate, he rejected his kindness and twisted his head to the side.
"What's this temper about?" Yu Zhi shook his head and reproached dotingly: "You fainted in the carriage, but it frightened me. The doctor said that you were tired from the journey and frightened......."
"Okay, don't talk about it, you go out first!" Gan Shunhua interrupted him unceremoniously, he hated being in the same room with men other than Yin Zijue, and it was so close.
Yu Zhi was stunned, his eyes immediately dimmed, he knew what she was irritating about, the princess and the princess had a deep relationship.......
Wasn't he his husband, and was she so disgusted with herself? Yu Zhizhi's head was a little painful, he put the medicine bowl on the side of the bed, and went out without saying a word. Just as Gan Shunhua breathed a sigh of relief, Yu Zhi turned back and told him to remember to drink the medicine, and then bowed down again.
Where is this? Gan Shunhua didn't think that the palatial and exquisitely furnished place in front of him was just an ordinary inn.
Let's drink the medicine first! Gan Shunhua sighed, thinking of Yu Zhi's injured eyes, Gan Shunhua realized whether his words were heavier, after all, Yu Zhi has always protected himself. Thinking like this, she reached for the medicine bowl with her hands, but one accidentally knocked over the bowl, and her body fell off the bed because she leaned too forward.
The movement in the room alarmed the people outside the door, and it was Yu Zhi who rushed to the first, he ran over in a panic to help Gan Shunhua, looked left and right, and saw that she was okay except for a little injury to her hand, so he breathed a sigh of relief, took out a few bottles of medicinal powder from the corner of the room, sprinkled them on the wound, and wrapped them with strips of cloth after blowing. His eyes were full of worry and distress.
"It's enviable." He was followed by a valiant woman, speaking in an exclamatory tone. Gan Shunhua noticed that a jade ring was changed into a necklace and hung around her neck, which looked extremely inappropriate.
"See Her Highness the Princess." The woman knelt on the ground and respectfully bowed to Gan Shunhua. From beginning to end, his head was never raised.
"Get up."
Gan Shunhua was curious about her origin and looked at Yu Zhi who was supporting her.
"This is the concubine of the Spirit King, Miss Ning Nuoyou." Yu Zhi introduced with a smile, sweeping away the previous haze.
UNNC? Gan Shunhua thought of the group of assassins. Sneered.
"The palace is fine, you guys go out first." Gan Shunhua habitually covered her head and began to drive people away, she needed time to tidy herself up and deal with the affairs of the Spirit King, this kind of thing should not be delayed.
Yu Zhi and Ning Nuo quietly retreated, and Gan Shunhua took matters into his own hands, got dressed in the house and pushed open the door. As soon as she came out, Ning Nuoyou knelt down busily.
Gan Shunhua originally hated those red tapes, but when he went outside, he thought he could be freer and unrestrained, but the result was ...... This person is really annoying.
"Get up, get up." Gan Shunhua smiled on his face and went to Fu Ning Nuoyou: "You don't have to be polite in front of this palace. โ
Ning Nuo stood up when he heard this, his head kept his head down, and when he saw Her Royal Highness for the first time, he was afraid that he would accidentally anger Gan Shunhua.
"Where is this?" Gan Shunhua looked around, his eyes tingled, and the celebrity calligraphy and paintings, antique jewelry, and countless on the shelves around him were thrown aside casually.
"This is on the lower house." Ning Nuoyou quickly glanced at Gan Shunhua's expression, and began to have trouble in his heart.
Her Majesty the Empress is extremely gracious to the Ning family, although she did not give the Ning family real power, but she has a lot of rewards every year, even more than those princes. It is precisely because of this that these rewards cannot be piled up in the warehouse, and they can only be placed in the living room at will, but His Highness does not know what to think when he sees this......
Gan Shunhua is a little jealous in her heart, the orphans of the previous dynasty are richer than her, and she is really aggrieved as a woman. But on a moment's notice, this is just a means for the mother emperor to obey the emperor and appease people's hearts. I didn't have any other ideas.
"Then the palace will thank Miss Ning." Gan Shunhua noticed one thing at this time, that is, this Miss Ning's cousin, Ning Nuoye, was nowhere to be seen at all.
"Why don't you see Ning Gongzi?" Yu Zhi on the side seemed to hear her voice and asked Ning Nuoyou.
"This ......" UNNC showed a look of embarrassment, and seemed to be a little embarrassed.
"Prince Mo Feining doesn't know the news of His Highness's arrival?" Yu Zhi asked.
"It's mine, it's not too late. Please don't blame Her Royal Highness. Just when the atmosphere was very tense, a clear and warm voice came, Gan Shunhua looked sideways, and saw a demon man wearing a bright red plain clothes, his chest was open at random, and the corners of his eyes were painted with a red pen A few peonies, and the whole person looked wanton and debauched. When he saw Gan Shunhua looking at him, he licked his lips with his tongue and threw a wink at her. That's it, indescribably enchanting and charming.
I have to say that Ning Nuoye is indeed a beautiful man, and his behavior just now is really full of temptation. If you are an ordinary person, you must not be able to resist this temptation. It's a pity that Gan Shunhua can't fit any man in his heart except for the one in his own family. No matter how beautiful it is, Gan Shunhua's heart can't make a little wave.
"Seeing how Her Royal Highness the Empress Dowager didn't salute, it became more and more unruly." Ning Nuoyou, who was on the side, scolded him, pulled him along, and forced him to kneel on the ground. Then he arched his hand towards Gan Shunhua: "It's because I didn't take care of him, if you are offended, please forgive Your Highness." A nameless fire sparked in Ning Nuoyou's heart, and he felt ashamed when he thought of his brother's behavior of seducing His Royal Highness the Empress just now.
"It turned out to be the second son of the Ning family, I thought it was a little girl in the song and dance workshop." Yu Zhi smiled contemptuously, and the air was full of vinegar.
"Ahem-" Gan Shunhua interrupted to break the awkward scene.
"Spirit King-" Gan Shunhua didn't know what appropriate way to ask, lest he hurt the heart of his filial son and daughter.
"My father was poisoned and died for no reason, but this poisonโ" She sighed and lowered her eyes: "Forgive me for being incompetent, and I didn't find out the murderer of my father." โ
"After reporting this matter to Your Majesty, Your Majesty ordered me to keep my father's body in an ice coffin, waiting for a thick burial after investigation."
Ning Nuoyou continued, seeing that it was getting late, he persuaded her to go to dinner first, and then go to rest, and the investigation of the case would come back tomorrow.
Gan Shunhua was about to say something, but Yu Zhi pulled her sleeve and signaled her to do so. Gan Shunhua somehow agreed.
Ning Nuoyou instructed a few maids to take good care of Gan Shunhua, and then led Ning Nuoye, who was coming to Gan Shunhua, to walk quickly. And Yu Zhi went to dinner with Gan Shunhua.
