"Someone. Pull her down and kill her with a cane! The queen suddenly ordered, and Ning Rongzhi only felt like thunder when he heard this voice.

She couldn't have imagined that she would be buried in this deep palace like this. Barbaric, unreasonable, this is the so-called upper class aristocracy? She couldn't help but want to laugh, she didn't do anything, and she was even careful to speak, but she could find fault with everything.

Knowing the queen's will, the eunuchs in the palace naturally would not be disobedient, and Ning Rongzhi didn't care if it was really against the queen, so he raised his head and said loudly to the queen: "The queen, the slave has never used what the mother said. If the mother insists on thinking so, the slave only thinks that the mother's assumption is ridiculous. Not to mention whether there is really witchcraft in this world, Niangniang is not standing here in peace now, why should she suspect slaves! ”

As she spoke, two or three eunuchs had already rushed in, and they couldn't help but pick up Ning Rongzhi and go outside. Ning Rongzhi struggled, but still didn't say a word begging for mercy, and even she knew that the queen was just trying to find an excuse to execute her, so she didn't defend anymore.

In such a situation, Ning Rongzhi's strength was suddenly amazing, and he couldn't help breaking free from the eunuch, and he couldn't hold her back.

A few more eunuchs rushed in from outside, and this time Ning Rongzhi finally had no ability to struggle anymore, closing his eyes as if he had been sentenced to death.

"Stop."

The deep voice of the man behind him remembered that the previous noise disappeared in an instant, and the power that imprisoned Ning Rongzhi also dissipated. Ning Rongzhi suddenly opened his eyes, slowly turned around, and looked at the person behind him in disbelief.

Shen Huo stood in front of the door, his tall figure becoming more and more majestic. He strode forward, walked up to Ning Rongzhi, raised his hand and stroked her forehead gently, and then withdrew his hand.

Ning Rongzhi felt a sharp pain on his forehead at this time, and the queen smashed it, probably breaking the skin, but he was too nervous to feel the pain.

Ben was still not afraid of heaven and earth, looking like he was going to die, but after seeing Shen Huo, tears suddenly filled his entire eyes, and his heart seemed to be pressed by something and he was almost out of breath.

"It's the other way around, it's all the other way around...... the queen looked at Shen Huo in disbelief, then at Ning Rongzhi, and clenched her fists.

Shen Huo bypassed Ning Rongzhi and walked in front of the queen, slowly leaned over and saluted, and his tone did not have a trace of warmth: "Erchen greets the queen mother." After that, without waiting for the queen to speak, she stood up by herself, "I don't know what happened to make the queen mother lose her temper so much?" The queen mother should be careful of her body. ”

As soon as Shen Huo saw it, he knew that he had returned to the East Palace and hurried over, without even having time to change his clothes. It was because of this that the queen felt more and more angry that her son would be so impulsive for a woman.

"Xun'er, you ...... What are you doing here? Isn't it possible that you will also confront your mother! Could it be that the emperor's punishment was not heavy before? Do you still want to disobey your queen mother for the sake of this enchantress? The queen's whole body was trembling, and the phoenix crown had been trembling since he entered the door.

"Erchen doesn't dare." After seeing Shen Huo, the queen was already a little incoherent, but Shen Huo was still cold and indifferent, unmoved, "Erchen just wants to tell the queen mother that Miss Ning is just an ordinary medical girl, not a demon girl." As for witchcraft and the like, it is something that the mage shaman does, and what does it have to do with Miss Ning. ”

The queen took two or three steps back, her face turned blue, she sat down on the couch, and still muttered in her mouth: "It's the opposite, it's the opposite, it's all starting to disobey the palace, isn't it, even the sons of the palace have begun to contradict the palace!" ”

Seeing the queen's sad look, Shen Huo wanted to defend Ning Rongzhi again, but he couldn't say anything to his lips. The queen closed her eyes slightly, raised her head and panted, and the maid next to her stepped forward and leaned down beside the queen, and she couldn't help but sob: "Niangniang, Niangniang dissipates her anger, His Royal Highness is not deliberately angry with Niangniang......"

Ning Rongzhi stood behind Shen Huo, biting his lower lip and looking away, not knowing what he was thinking. The despair that flashed in the queen's eyes when she looked at Fang Liang suddenly stung Shen Huo's eyes.

He couldn't help but think of many things from his childhood. He has had high hopes since he was a child, and the childhood he remembers has always been a haze, and the only joy in those sufferings seems to be the scholar who accompanied him, and his mother. In the past 20 years, the queen has made many comebacks in order to protect her.

This time the queen targeted Ning Rongzhi like this, although he didn't know what it was for, he knew that no matter what the queen did, she must want to do it for his good, regardless of whether she knew right or wrong.

As a son of man, he really has no reason to go toe-to-toe with his mother like this.

turned around and looked at Ning Rongzhi again, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Ning Rongzhi also raised his head and looked at him calmly, his clear eyes were as clear as water. Shen Huo raised his hand, but his hand stopped in mid-air, clenched his fist and put it down.

"Someone." Shen Huo said, his tone obviously trembling. He has always been resolute in doing things, and now it is the first time that he has acted so indecisively. "Someone...... Pull her down, and scold her with twenty boards. ”

The eunuchs responded in unison and stepped forward to escort Ning Rongzhi down. Shen Huo closed his eyes, not daring to look at Ning Rongzhi's incredulous gaze. He knew that this incident was obviously intentional by the queen, and it had nothing to do with Ning Rongzhi at all, but he had to do it.

Ning Rongzhi didn't struggle anymore, no matter how the eunuch dragged her to the backyard and pressed her on the bench, even if she was beaten until her skin and flesh opened, she didn't say a word.

Shen Huo and the queen didn't speak, but the queen's face was obviously much more relaxed.

"Ning Rongzhi has been punished, and today's incident ...... Let the queen mother spare her this time. Shen Huoping said flatly, turned around and walked out.

Ning Rongzhi had already suffered the battle, and he couldn't even move when he was lying on the bench. His back was red, his eyes were red, and he buried his face deep in the crook of his arm.

Shen Huo stepped forward to help Ning Rongzhi, but was pushed away by Ning Rongzhi. However, he really didn't have the strength, but he became like throwing himself into his arms. got up from the bench and stumbled to walk forward by himself, not even wanting to look at Shen Huo.

Shen Huo blamed himself more and more in his heart, but as soon as he was negligent, Ning Rongzhi almost fell to the ground.

Shen Huo couldn't help but take a step forward, and regardless of Ning Rongzhi's pushing, he carried her on his back and walked towards the East Palace. Bu Bao had been waiting outside for a long time, and when he saw Shen Huo walking out with Ning Rongzhi covered in blood, they started to talk about it. Shen Huo ignored the palanquin man and walked towards the East Palace on foot.

The sky was already overcast, and the west was a weak orange, and the wind whistling from time to time mixed with the smell of hot and humid smell, as if something was really going to happen.

The news of Ning Rongzhi's punishment spread throughout the East Palace. It was completely dark. He Suoyi and Ning Rongzhi have a good relationship, and after such a thing happened, he was naturally anxious, took the best medicine in his palace, and went to the courtyard where Ning Rongzhi was temporarily housed. There were guards guarding the courtyard, and she was about to go inside, but was stopped by the guards.

He Suoyi looked at the guards in some surprise, but the guards still had an iron face: "Niangniang forgives her sins, the prince has an order, and no one is allowed to disturb Miss Ning's rest." ”

"Isn't this palace okay either?" He asked.

Seeing the guard nodding, he knew that it was Shen Huo's subordinates, and he refused to compromise, so he had to give up. couldn't sleep well all night, in her eyes, Ning Rongzhi was a soft and weak little girl, and she didn't know if the injury was serious.

Early in the morning of the second day, He Suoyi packed up his things and brought the cook to bring his newly made pastries to Ning Rongzhi. The maidservant girl followed behind He Suoyi, and suddenly said: "Niangniang, have you heard that yesterday His Royal Highness carried Miss Ning back to the East Palace, and he refused to even sit on the side. ”

He Suoyi paused for a moment, and suddenly stopped and reprimanded the maidservant: "Miss Ning is so seriously injured, it is normal for His Highness to carry Miss Ning back, there is no need to chew the root of your tongue for this kind of thing." ”

The maidservant had no choice but to bow her head and say no more.

The guards were still in front of the courtyard, but they were a different group of people. He Suoyi had just walked in, and suddenly heard the man's concerned voice: "Does the wound still hurt?" ”

"Leave it to me." This time it was the woman's delicate voice. It sounds like anger, but it's tender.

He Suoyi still walked in, and saw Ning Rongzhi lying on the bed with his head twisted to the side, and Shen Huo helplessly. Shen Huo shook his head, and suddenly raised his hand and pulled Ning Rongzhi into his arms, "Don't be angry, you listen to the explanation of this palace......" As he was speaking, he suddenly raised his head and saw He Zhiyi who walked in.

He Suoyi saluted Shen Huo, put the things on the table, walked to the edge of the bed and leaned down.

Shen Huo got up, but found that He Suoyi's gaze had not left him. I only heard her ask: "I heard that it is His Royal Highness...... Ordered? ”

"I was about to say that." Shen Huo said, "If this palace doesn't do this, I'm afraid that the queen mother will target Miss Ning more and more in the future." This palace also made this decision in order to protect her. As he spoke, he sighed, and then muttered to Ning Rongzhi, "I have wronged you." This palace will definitely not let this happen again in the future. ”

As he spoke, He Suoyi's eyes fell on the medicine bottle on the table. She remembered that the medicine was a tribute from the Western Regions a long time ago, and it took decades to practice the medicine, which was extremely precious. Shen Huo is so good to Ning Rongzhi, she should be happy, but for some reason there is always a strange feeling in her heart.

After this incident, it is undoubtedly a reminder to many people in the palace that it is always so inexplicable to be targeted.

That night, the man stood on the roof with his hands in his hands, and a person came out of nowhere behind him, and said respectfully: "Master." ”

The man on the roof was none other than Shen Huo, and the person who called him master was one of the hidden guards he had cultivated.

"You don't have to follow Bengong in the future, Bengong ordered you to protect Miss Ning secretly, and Bengong promised her that she would not be hurt again." After that, he looked into the distance and his eyes were misty.
