Su Qingqing also tried her best to hug Ye Ningxiang tightly at this time, as if she had suffered a great suffering, and after suffering from the heat and coldness of the world, she finally found a trace of comfort in her heart in despair. Probably too excited, and after a while, Su Qingqing passed out.

Ye Ningxiang shook Su Qingqing's shoulders and called her a few times loudly, but there was still no answer. In a hurry, Ye Ningxiang carried the scarred Su Qingqing on her back and returned to Yipinju.

Although there are only a few steps, Ye Ningxiang has thought a lot about the distance of these few steps. A few days ago, when she heard Ma Zhong talking with others, she said that after Su Qingqing became the palace maid in charge of the Xia Meiren Palace, it didn't take long for her to be favored by King Duan by chance, and she became King Duan's side concubine. Ye Ningxiang still remembers the envious look on Ma Zhong's face when he described this incident, and he was happy that Su Qingqing had found such a home in his heart.

But not long has passed, how could this Su Qingqing appear on the street like this? What happened?

When the sons of the Yipinju clan saw Ye Ningxiang carrying a beggar and walking inside, they all avoided her with a look of disdain, and one of them even openly accused Ye Ningxiang: "How can you bring a beggar to such an elegant place?"

Ye Ningxiang glared at the man viciously, and said mercilessly: "If you dare to talk more, believe it or not, I will kill you!"

Looking at Ye Ningxiang's eyes full of murderous intent, the man didn't dare to shout anymore, lowered his head, didn't know what to mutter, and left Yipinju quickly.

"Quick, do you have any spare rooms here, make room for me, the price is not a problem. Ye Ningxiang stood in the center of the hall and shouted.

Mo Xiaoqin, who was originally playing the piano in the southeast corner, heard Ye Ningxiang's shout and stopped the piano in his hand, and when he looked up, he only found that Ye Ningxiang had a beggar on his back who seemed to be seriously injured. This Mo Xiaoqin was trafficked many times when she was young, and it was only when she met her current adoptive father that she was able to settle down, so she was more compassionate to people in vulnerable situations.

Mo Xiaoqin walked quickly to Ye Ningxiang, and said with a somewhat anxious face: "Come to my room, follow me!" After speaking, Mo Xiaoqin left a group of listeners and led Ye Ningxiang towards his living room alone.

Mo Xiaoqin's living room was in an inconspicuous place in the inner courtyard of Yipinju, and as soon as Ye Ningxiang entered the house, she gently put Su Qingqing on the bed, and then kept shaking her arm, trying to wake her up.

"My father used to be the Langzhong in our village, I asked him to come over and take a look!" Mo Xiaoqin said suddenly behind Ye Ningxiang, and then quickly walked out of the house.

Soon, Daddy Mo carried a wooden box in his hand and walked quickly into the room. Seeing Su Qingqing lying on the bed very weakly, Father Mo felt strong sympathy and pity in his heart, and couldn't help sighing, then opened the wooden box, took out a few silver needles from the box and pierced Su Qingqing's several big holes.

After a few stitches, Su Qingqing seemed to frown because of the pain. "I can't imagine that this almost forgotten skill will come in handy today!" "Daddy Mo seemed proud that his medical skills were recognized again.

Su Qingqing slowly opened her eyes, and saw that in front of her was Ye Ningxiang, whom she had resented, and she had mixed feelings in her heart, and because Ye Ningxiang was desperate for herself, she was very moved, and under the touch of a variety of emotions, Su Qingqing cried uncontrollably.

Ye Ningxiang controlled her emotions, and stroked Su Qingqing's shoulders with both hands, her eyes were firm and powerful, the kind of look that made Su Qingqing feel that she could rely on herself as soon as she saw her.

"Qingqing, did King Duan harm you like this?" Ye Ningxiang deliberately lowered her tone and asked in a deep voice.

Hearing the word Duanwang, Su Qingqing seemed to have seen the devil, shook his head desperately, and kept screaming in his mouth.

"Qingqing, calm down, you are by my side now, I won't let you have anything. I need to know some of the ins and outs of the matter, you have to cooperate with me well!" Ye Ningxiang shook Su Qingqing's shoulder and said very earnestly.

Hearing Ye Ningxiang's words, Su Qingqing's mood stabilized slightly, although she was still crying, her crying had weakened a lot.

Ye Ningxiang saw that her words were effective, so she stepped up and asked, "Does King Duan have any ulterior secrets?"

Su Qingqing nodded.

Ye Ningxiang then asked, "Is it related to King Duan's rebellion?"

This question stunned Su Qingqing, and his eyes seemed to reveal doubts, as if he was asking why King Duan rebelled.

It's not related to rebellion, what is it, will it be that Su Qingqing doesn't know what secrets there are, but it was very unfortunate that King Duan mistakenly thought that she heard something and was ruthless to her. "Do you know what Duanwang's secrets are?" Ye Ningxiang continued to ask.

Su Qingqing shook her head.

Sure enough, she didn't know anything, just because King Duan thought she might know something, so he harmed her like this, and threw her into the cold street to survive, leaving herself to fend for herself.

Ye Ningxiang was furious, and she couldn't wait to kill King Duan immediately to vent her anger, and the hatred in her heart was even worse: Mu Jinghong, your good days are coming to an end!

At this moment, Ye Ningxiang has only one thought, that is, to find out King Duan's secret in person and make it public to avenge Su Qingqing.

Ye Ningxiang said with great concern: "Qingqing, you have a good rest here first, Father Mo here is a Langzhong, he will heal you wholeheartedly." I'll be away for a while!"

Su Qingqing seemed to see Ye Ningxiang's thoughts, first shook her head violently, as if telling Ye Ningxiang not to interfere, and then probably saw Ye Ningxiang's firm attitude, so she nodded a little reluctantly.

After that, Ye Ningxiang walked out of Yipinju quickly and walked towards Duanwangfu.

"Young Master Yu, don't we need to help Ye Ningxiang?" Gao Fei asked respectfully behind Xiao Qingyu.

"No need, if Ning Xiang is in trouble, there is someone who will definitely help, and we will just watch from the side when the time comes. Xiao Qingyu said softly.

This end of the palace is not as good as the Ning palace, the palace guards have always been very strict, and it is exaggerated that if there is no permission, even a fly will not be able to fly in. Last time, if it weren't for the fact that the guards were a little sleepy in the middle of the night, and he was wearing a night suit, he was not conspicuous in the dark night, so he successfully sneaked into Duanwang's study. Now in broad daylight, it is impossible to sneak into Duanwang's Mansion secretly.

Ye Ningxiang waited outside the mansion for a long time, thinking that if she happened to see King Duan out of the mansion and follow him directly to understand his whereabouts, but after a while, she denied this idea.

Not to mention that there are several side doors in this Duan Wang's Mansion in addition to the main entrance, if Duan Wang has some unsavory secrets, even if this secret needs to be done outside the palace, because it is a secret, naturally the fewer people know, the less people know, this Duan Wang will definitely not leave the house from the main gate. There are several doors in the palace, but Ye Ningxiang has only one, and the way of waiting for the king at the door will definitely not work, so you can only take the risk and try this road.

Ye Ningxiang was bold and walked to the main gate of Duanwang Mansion, and was intercepted by the guards in front of the door as soon as she stepped up the steps.

"Stop, what are you doing?" one of the guards asked warily.

Ye Ningxiang's face was sad, and there were pitiful tears in her eyes, seeing that the hearts of those gatekeepers were suddenly full of love and pity, and the momentum of the next question was obviously lowered, "Little sister, what's wrong with you, is there something wrong with coming to Duanwangfu?"

Ye Ningxiang said while crying: "The little girl was originally a second-class palace person who was elected to the palace this year, and she was a very good sister with Su Qingqing, who had just been included in the palace a few days ago. Saying this, Ye Ningxiang cried even more, which made the guards so embarrassed for a while that they didn't know what to do.

Seeing that those people were completely attracted to her, Ye Ningxiang continued to say very emotionally: "But two days ago, the little girl suddenly learned that Qingqing had a serious illness and passed away seven days ago. Ye Ningxiang wiped her tears and continued: "The little girl was very reluctant in her heart, and she dared to come to Duanwangfu alone to take some clothes that Qingqing used before her death to keep as a memory. I also hope that my brothers will help communicate with Duanwang!" After speaking, he knelt on his knees and kowtowed to these guards.

"Okay, let's go and spread the word. Without exception, these guards were all on Ye Ningxiang's path.

After about a quarter of an hour, the guards who had gone in to pass the pass came out breathlessly and said, "His Royal Highness Duan Wang said that we should take a look at your palace token first, and then we can let you in." ”

This palace token is a token that every palace person has to prove the identity of his palace person, the token is not big, but it is engraved with his name, and there is a seal engraved on it by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

When she was with Mu Xize before, Ye Ningxiang never brought it with her, but she went to see Xiao Qingyu today and deliberately dressed up, and happened to see the palace token in the dresser, so she took the token with her hand by the way, and she didn't expect it to play such a big role today.

The guards took the token and looked at it carefully for a while, and finally let Ye Ningxiang enter the Duanwang Mansion, and at the end, one of the guards said to Ye Ningxiang with great concern: "Little sister, the deceased has gone, let's mourn and change earlier!"

This Duan Wangfu not only has many guards, but also a lot of courtyards, fortunately, after breaking into Duanwang's Mansion the night before, Ye Ningxiang did not take too many detours and came to the vicinity of Duanwang's residence.

At this time, a eunuch who looked like a steward suddenly said to Ye Ningxiang, "You are that Su Qingqing's good sister?"

Ye Ningxiang was looking for a way before, and was suddenly shocked when she was asked like this, but her face was still unusually calm, and she bowed her head slightly and replied to the eunuch: "Yes." ”

"Come with me, this Duan Wangfu is no better than other places, you must not wander around here, if it is known by King Duan, be careful of your little life!" the eunuch kindly admonished.

"No, Ning Xiang strictly obeys the teachings of the father-in-law. Ye Ningxiang replied in a whisper behind her, still thinking about how to further explore the secret of King Duan.

The father-in-law led Ye Ningxiang into the living room where Su Qingqing lived in Duanwang's Mansion before, the furnishings were simple and neat, but there was everything needed for life, and it could be seen that Duanwang should treat her well, but thinking of Su Qingqing's appearance now, Ye Ningxiang's heart seemed to be kneaded repeatedly, and tears flowed involuntarily.

At this time, a young woman dressed in gorgeous clothes and with a dignified demeanor walked towards Su Qingqing's room, this person Ye Ningxiang had seen her once, at the wedding banquet between herself and Mu Xize in her previous life, she was the concubine of King Duan, and she was a beautiful young woman with an elegant temperament.

It's just that this beautiful young woman has sadness on her face, and she seems to be sad about Su Qingqing's departure.

"You are Su Qingqing's good sister before her death?" asked Princess Duan.

"Yes. I came here today to find some objects left by Qingqing before his death. Ye Ningxiang said while crying.

Princess Duan sighed and said: "Hey, that girl is indeed miserable, as soon as she was favored, she suddenly got a vicious disease and died violently, I was afraid that it was a contagious disease, so I privately ordered her clothes to be burned together." ”

Then she took out a piece of emerald green jade from her arms and continued: "This jade jue is something that Su Qingqing carried with her, I saw that this object was exquisitely made, so I was reluctant to throw it away, originally thinking of finding an opportunity to return it to her father who was far away in Luan County. Now that you're here, I'm going to give you this thing. ”

Ye Ningxiang took Yu Jue with both hands, kowtowed to Princess Duan, and said, "Ning Xiang kowtows to thank the princess." ”

At this time, Ye Ningxiang saw that outside the open door, King Duan hurriedly walked by, and it seemed that he had something urgent to do.
