On this day, the cold wind shuttled through the streets.

Qiulan carried two bags of new bird's nest and walked on the way back to Xie Mansion.

It was freezing cold, and there were few pedestrians on the streets.

Qiulan took a shortcut through a secluded alley.

She was in a hurry, always feeling that someone was following her.

However, I turned back several times, but I didn't see anything.

Qiulan retracted her gaze, wondering in her heart.

Suddenly!

As if descending from the sky, several tall and resolute-looking guards appeared.

grabbed Qiulan's arm with one hand.

She was so frightened that she screamed, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? ”

The guard at the head said coldly: "The master wants to see you, come with us." ”

Before Qiulan could struggle, a rag was stuffed in her mouth.

The bird's nest fell to the ground, and Qiulan was forcibly taken away.

The guards threw her into the carriage.

After a while, when the carriage stopped and Qiulan was pulled out by them, she looked up and saw the majestic courtyard in front of her.

The two stone lions are angry, and the willow nails of the red lacquered gate are bright.

Qiulan was stunned, raised her eyes, and saw that the plaque read: County Lord's Mansion.

When I entered the mansion, I saw elegant and simple pavilions.

Only then did Qiu Lan react, and it turned out to be the palace guard of the county lord of Funing who arrested her!

After a while, Qiulan was thrown into the main hall by the guards.

"Ouch!" She fell to the ground, grunting in pain.

A childish chuckle came from overhead.

Qiulan looked over and saw Shen Ningning sitting on a chair, shaking her little feet.

"Take the rag from her mouth." The little guy gave the order.

Late Spring, who was standing beside her, stepped forward and took away the cloth from Qiulan's mouth.

Qiulan suddenly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "County master, the slave and maid don't know anything, the slave and maid are all according to the second lady's explanation, and they only said those words to the late spring!" ”

Shen Ningning's eyes widened and he smiled in surprise.

"You're so smart to guess why I'm looking for you."

Late Spring snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of?" Could it be that he also knows that what he has done is a bad thing, and his heart is empty? ”

She pushed Qiulan: "Whatever our county lord asks, you can say anything, otherwise, you want to look good!" ”

Qiulan had long been frightened by Shen Ningning's posture.

It is said that the lord of Funing is easy to get along with, and when she was canonized, the emperor gave her more than 100 palace people to serve.

However, Shen Ningning never really lived in the county lord's mansion.

Her thirty palace guards rarely came forward.

But just now, when Qiulan saw the skills of several of the guards, she suddenly became afraid.

The county lord is the county lord in the end, and he is personally sealed by the emperor, and if he wants her life, it is much simpler!

Qiulan hurriedly expressed her distress: "The county lord forgives the sins!" Whatever you ask, the slaves and maids answer honestly. ”

"The slave maid has just been transferred to the second lady's side to serve, and it hasn't been long before everything is under the instructions of the second lady, and the slave and maid will never dare to offend you."

Shen Ningning's long eyelashes blinked, and a pair of big round eyes shone like a pair of black gems.

Her little face was as cute as white porcelain, and she said, "Well, in that case, tell me about it, what kind of cold disease did the second lady really have a while ago?" ”

Qiu Lanser flinched and nodded.

"This disease, the second lady won't let you talk about it......" She was a little hesitant and afraid.

Wanchun stepped forward and pinched her fiercely: "What is the second lady, the county lord asks, do you dare to say it?" ”

Qiulan was in pain and screamed.

"Say, the slave maid said that before, the second lady secretly met the goddess in the city, and the goddess gave her a medicine."

"Since then, the second lady seems to be suffering from cold, and from time to time she feels cold, and she has to drink hot water to relieve it, and even her throat is almost burned."

Shen Ningning furrowed her little eyebrows: "Really? So how did it get better? ”

Qiulan hurriedly said: "The second lady couldn't stand the pain, so she went to the goddess again, and the goddess gave her an antidote. ”

At first, Qiulan also felt that the goddess was a liar.

But I didn't expect that Second Mrs. Xie took the antidote given by the goddess, and she was completely better, and even her throat was fine.

Qiulan looked uneasy and looked at Shen Ningning: "The second lady asked the slave maid to deliberately reveal this news to the late spring. ”

"She said that Late Spring would tell you, and the slave maid felt that she ...... She knew that the county lord was anxious about His Royal Highness the Prince's illness, so she wanted to make a plan. ”

Late Spring snorted: "Why don't you just say it directly?" ”

"Let you go around the bend and tell me, don't you just want to harm the county lord to see the goddess, so that the lord will misunderstand our county lord."

Qiulan lowered her head, obviously thinking so in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it.

Shen Ningning didn't speak, as if he was thinking.

Her big eyes were glowing and clear.

It seems to have the power to penetrate people's hearts.

In fact, she had already decided to go and see what kind of medicine was sold in that goddess's gourd.

The little guy didn't believe that her medicine really worked.

It's about worrying about what's wrong with this.

I'm afraid that people with bad intentions are aiming for the prince.

And if the emperor's uncle is sick and rushes to the doctor, he will be caught by these gangsters for his psychological weakness.

After Shen Ningning thought clearly, Nuo Nuo said: "Qiulan, when you go back, you will tell the second lady." ”

"You heard that I am privately inquiring about the location of the goddess, and I have decided to visit the goddess the day after tomorrow."

Qiulan raised her head and looked surprised: "County Lord, do you really want to go?" ”

Shen Ningning's little feet shook, and the white tassels on his boots dazzled.

"Go, of course you're going, not only do you have to say this to the second lady, but you can't tell her that I've seen you in advance, understand?"

Qiulan nodded in a daze.

What is the Lord of Funing going to do?

Knowing that it was a trap, if he went, he would be sued by Second Mrs. Xie Suzhi, why did he still go?

The day after tomorrow.

Chen Ye drove the carriage and stopped outside an alley.

A tender white hand lifted the curtain, and Shen Ningning jumped out of the car wearing a small coat in a lotus color.

"Hey." As soon as she landed, the long-life lock bell around her neck rang crisply.

The cold plague was at the head, and the surroundings were gloomy and deadly white.

Only the bright green on her body is particularly eye-catching, like the only vitality in the world.

Chen Ye stepped forward and knocked on the door, and a cautious inquiry came from inside: "Who is coming?" ”

Chen Ye said the right code: "The one who comes is a guest." ”

At that moment, the little door creaked open.

A waitress-like figure sneaked out and looked left and right for a moment.

Chen Ye said: "Our young lady came to ask God for medicine and sent someone to say hello." ”

The waitress nodded: "Please come in." ”

Chen Ye accompanied Shen Ningning into the small courtyard.

As soon as the door closed, Xie Ming'an rode over.

He happened to watch Shen Ningning walk in with his little feet, and the tender green of the lotus root color disappeared behind the door.

Xie Ming'an tugged on the reins, his cold brows furrowed.

The little guy behind him followed, surprised: "Second young master, it seems that what the second lady said is true, the county lord is really mixed with this kind of three sects and nine streams!" ”

Xie Suzhi is not in the house today.

Second Lady Xie found him and asked him to take care of Shen Ningning.

said that she ran to see the goddess secretly, and she was afraid that she was going to do something bad.

Originally, Xie Ming'an didn't believe it.

After all, Shen Ningning is a smart child with his own judgment in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, I saw her enter the courtyard of the goddess.

Xie Ming'an turned over and dismounted, his face was cold and hard: "Go in and see what she wants to do." ”
