Chapter 38
After falling into the water, Yan Ning's condition was not good. Perhaps for safety reasons, two rows of cold-faced guards were blocked outside his room.
When Yingying went to see him, he was still recuperating on the couch. The bitter medicine in the room was thrilling. Yan Ning's two black and white kittens were curled up on him and sleeping. When he saw Yingying coming in, he was looking for reputation, his eyes flashed slightly.
"Are you... okay?" Yingying sat on the chair and looked at him, but she didn't expect Yan Ning to be so ill.
It was obvious that he had just fallen into the water, but Yan Ning seemed to have been exhausted. His lips turned white and curled up with a shallow curve, as if he mocked himself: "It's pretty good."
Anyway, I'm still alive.
Seeing Yan Ning's appearance, Yingying further confirmed her guess. She always had a little kindness towards Yan Ning. Now that she saw that he was the only one in the room, she thought about it and said: "Actually..."
"Yingying!" As soon as he started speaking, Yan Ning's voice on the couch trembled slightly, and suddenly the sound of rising interrupted her.
I'm used to hearing Miss Gu, Miss Gu, this is the first time Yingying has heard Yan Ning call her so close. She looked at Yan Ning in a hurry. Yingying saw him smiling reluctantly, pointing to the two kittens on her body and said, "Can you help me carry them aside?"
“They are too heavy.”
"Okay." Yingying nodded without thinking about it. She walked up and was about to hug the two soft little things. Yan Ning's arm fell and suddenly stroked the back of Yingying's hand.
It seemed like it was falling naturally, Yan Ning's movement of stroking Yingying's back of her hand was light and fast. If Yingying hadn't been too sensitive to touching her limbs, she wouldn't have noticed any abnormality. She didn't think Yan Ning was the kind of person who could eat her tofu. Yingying pursed her lips when she looked up at him.
Yan Ning didn't look at her. His eyelashes drooped with his chin and his thin lips slightly opened and he sniffed out two words silently.
Go quickly.
After seeing it, Yingying turned her cheeks to the side. After seeing the shadows in the afterglow, she glanced at the screen, and looked at the robe that was slightly flashing.
"Your Highness Yanning, Xiaobao is getting darker and darker." Yingying slowly moved the two kittens in her hand, and her hands were specially smooth on the little white cat's head.
In fact, Yingying remembers it very clearly that the little white cat is called Xiaobao, and the black cat is called Abei. She said Xiaobaohei while touching the little white cat's head, and was actually telling Yan Ning that she noticed something was wrong.
I think the room was not safe at this time. Princess Huale, who was obviously hiding behind the screen in the room, explained the problem.
Yingying held back her whole body and talked to Yan Ning for a few more nonsense. When she learned that Yan Ning herself would be fine, she felt relieved and pretended to be in trouble.
As Yingying left, only the cat purring was left in the quiet room. Princess Huale shook her sleeves and came out from behind the screen. She sneered: "It seems that you have a good relationship with this Miss Gu family."
Yan Ning's fingers trembled, and he looked up at Hua Le and replied, "I don't know each other well, it's her that she has been pestering me."
"Is that true?" Hua Le raised his eyebrows, raised his red lips and smiled very interestingly.
As the door opened again, a servant came in with medicine, and several people came in and moved the table to clean it. They saw that the table was covered with medicine and pieces of broken porcelain.
The smell of medicine in the room became stronger and stronger. Hua Le glanced at the person on the couch, pulled the robe on his body and sneered: "If you have the ability, continue to seek death. See if you die quickly, or if my hand stretched out quickly."
It seemed that Hua Le had some life gate, Yan Ning's shoulders trembled and finally took the bowl of medicine.
As the medicine was in his mouth, Huale's expression also improved. She walked to the couch and looked at Yan Ning, touched his shoulder and softened his tone: "You should have a limit on making trouble. When you decided to come to the Northern Country, you should have expected that there would be such a day."
Yan Ning closed his eyes, and he leaned his back against the wall and smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that I expected my ending, but I didn't expect it to be the heart of the people."
If human hearts remain unchanged, how can there be so many things? Why do you have to do it in the beginning?
“…”
As soon as Yingying came out of Yanning's yard, she quickly asked the system: "Is the person who just hid in the room? Is it Princess Huale?"
The system sound stings and pulls into mechanical sounds: [That strong interference should be.]
It’s not that it doesn’t want to remind Yingying, but that as long as Yingying approaches Yanning and Princess Huale, its procedures will be chaotic.
Yingying frowned, because Princess Huale was more cautious in her hand. It seemed that she would indeed reduce her contact with the brother and sister in the future, especially the Princess Huale.
Yingying was strolling outside for a day, but it was getting late when she went back.
She didn't know that her every move was closely watched. When Prince Zhaoshi learned that Yingying had gone to many places but didn't come to him to look for her, he felt so irritable that he directly waved the things on the table.
"Wang Gu is so kind to her, she really doesn't care about Gu at all!"
Zhao Shi has a noble status and is mainly due to being able to get along with Yingying. He didn't think he cared about Yingying much before. Now, seeing her hiding and hiding towards her, she just gets close to Qin Rong, and she can't help but feel inexplicable.
"You said." It was like a basin of cold water pouring on his head, and Zhao Shi suddenly calmed down.
He rolled his throat and looked at Yifei, clenched his fists and said, "Does she also feel lonely and depressed? Isn't it rare for her to be alone?"
Yifei didn't know Yingying, so it was really hard to judge. However, in recent days, there have been many ministers of the sons who turned to Qin Rong. They wanted to be inclined to the officialdom, and everyone pushed the game to suit anyone, so Yifei only hesitated for a moment and nodded.
Even if Yingying likes Qin Rong in the past, she has never been so cold to Zhao Shi. Now it can be seen from the naked eye that Yingying is indeed not close to Zhao Shi.
"Master, what should we do next?"
Prince Zhaoshi sneered, "What else can I do?"
Even if Yingying was not alienated because of his downfall, the matters of the Zhang family were related to his interests. Now that Yingying killed Zhang Lingxue with her own hands, the two of them would eventually have a rift.
Prince Zhaoshi laughed sarcastically. It seemed that he was the only one who disturbed himself. He was still thinking about Gu Yingying and didn't want to hurt her. Since she didn't care about him, what else could he have to care about?
"Just follow the original plan."
He has already entered his first recession. In two days, Emperor Wucheng will host all the court officials in Liangcheng Hall. Empress Dowager Zhaoxuan will also attend, which is a good opportunity to start.
Seeing that his master had made up his mind, Yifei didn't say anything. He remembered something again, and said, "Your Hell Yan Ning fell into the water..."
Prince Zhaoshi was in a bad mood. When Yifei mentioned this, he kicked the table irritably. He growled: "I have checked for a few days, there are no suspicious people. Gu sees that Yan Jihua and Qin Rong are in the same group, and they are deliberately trying to make trouble for Gu!"
I have completely lost my patience with this matter, and Prince Zhaoshi will not be so stupid as to continue investigating it.
"If you catch someone and execute him, it means that the criminal has committed suicide due to his crime."
This is indeed the best way to deal with it. Yifei was not surprised by his master's change, and he quickly retreated after taking his life.
Yingying has been here for two days, and I don’t know what medicine Qin Rong applied to her. After applying it, the wound quickly scabbed and it no longer hurts. She ran to take care of her brother while she was idle. However, Gu Lingxiao used the excuse of a headache to think she was annoying and thought of a way to drive her away.
Another day, Yingying was chanting a script in Gu Lingxiao's room. Gu Lingxiao lazily leaned on the couch and rubbed his forehead. Seeing this, Yingying quickly asked: "Brother, have a headache again?"
After all, the person who was injured was the head. Although Yingying was not seriously injured in her previous life, she still had a headache and anger for many days.
Gu Lingxiao glanced at his sister lying beside his couch and said no politely, "If my brother could stay by himself for a while, his head would probably not hurt."
Yingying understood Gu Lingxiao's unexpected words and blinked her eyes and accused pitifully: "Brother, you don't love me anymore."
"Brother has never loved you." Gu Lingxiao poked her bulging cheeks and teased her on purpose, "If you say who loves you more, your brother will naturally not be as good as your future husband."
Nonsense.
Yingying closed the book in her hand, and it depends on her previous life, she herself was not sure what Qin Rong had to treat her.
"How did my brother know that Yingying's future husband will be nice to me?"
Yingying couldn't help but complain: "Maybe he was gentle on the surface and cruel on the back. Not only did he not love me, he would also hit me."
Gu Lingxiao's mouth twitched.
Yingying continued: "He may also build a beautiful palace for me to lock me up, not only not letting me see people, but also ruining my health."
"Brother, um..."
"Shut up." Gu Lingxiao was really afraid that Yingying would say something messy. He pinched Yingying's mouth and refused to let her speak again. "I really don't know what you are thinking in your mind every day."
He said with a funny look: "Even my brother can't control you. Can you ask which husband you have such great ability to build a palace for you to keep you?"
Why is it gone? Isn’t Qin Rong the only one?!
Yingying dares to be angry but dares not speak out. She lives for a lifetime and is now Qin Rong is gentle and elegant again. Even if she speaks his name, no one will believe it.
"Who?" Just as she felt wronged, Yingying quickly grabbed the loophole in Gu Lingxiao's words. She pulled down Gu Lingxiao's hand, opened her clear eyes and asked curiously: "Brother, how many husbands do I think I can have?"
Gu Lingxiao looked up at the door and coughed dryly. Yingying turned her head unconsciously with his eyes, and her smile froze when she saw the person standing by the door.
Today is the wind and warm sunshine, and the light golden sunshine shines on people with a layer of light.
Qin Rong had picturesque hair in Jinbai's satin robe. He didn't know how long he had stood here. He noticed that the two of them had a light curve on their gaze and said warmly: "Maybe I should come here later."
Yingying was not very comfortable, but Gu Lingxiao smiled heartily and was very natural when talking to Qin Rong.
Tomorrow, Emperor Wucheng will hold a banquet in Liangcheng Palace, and Qin Rong will come to comfort Gu Lingxiao's injuries on his behalf. The matter of Zhang directly involves Gu and Qiu's mansions. Because Zhang is linked to the power of Prince Zhaoshi, Jiuhua Palace seems calm now, but in fact there is a turbulent tide.
Although it was claimed that Zhang Lingxue died of suicide, the Zhang family was not a fool, so naturally he could guess that it was Yingying's move.
Yingying didn't know that the originally stable court had serious deviations, and one of them was likely to be unfavorable to the Gu family. In order to get rid of this predicament, Emperor Wu Cheng's banquet this time was not just a banquet, but also wanted to take the opportunity to explore Yingying's words and make an engagement for her.
"Lingxiao will definitely attend tomorrow." Gu Lingxiao naturally thought of this relationship.
Although he was just talking to Yingying, how could Gu Lingxiao, as her brother, not keep her words in mind? Tomorrow's banquet would not be simple, for fear that Yingying would say something amazing on the court. Even if he was seriously injured, he would have to go over and watch it.
"Yingying, it's getting late, you can go back with the third prince." Gu Lingxiao's eyes started to drive away people again, and he confiscated her words.
Compared to the Prince Zhaoshi who was not calm and unsteady, he was indeed more optimistic about the steady-minded third prince Qin Rong.
Yingying couldn't find an excuse to shirk it, so she could only go back to Qingboju with Qin Rong.
After that day's uncertainty, Yingying quickly retracted herself into her shell. She ran to Gu Lingxiao all day to avoid Qin Rong. In the system's words, she would not recognize anyone by lifting her pants.
Yingying felt that this was wrong. After all, when Qin Rong woke up that day, she was dressed in good clothes, but someone changed her clothes in her sleep. If this were to be put in the previous life, Yingying would never believe that Qin Rong could do such a thing.
"Go to my room."
While worried about how Qin Rong replaced his clothes, he grabbed his little hand and found that the two had arrived at Qingboju.
"Go, go to your room?" Yingying looked up at him with her round eyes, and wanted to pull her hands back, but Qin Rong held them tighter.
Qin Rong responded without explaining much, took Yingying's hand and went to his room. Yingying stammered and pushed him with her other hand. Not only did she push him away, but she followed him two steps forward. Yingying panickedly shouted, "Third brother, no, third brother..."
"Well, third brother, listen." Qin Rongren looked at Wen Ya and didn't know how to do martial arts, but Yingying couldn't pull him away every time she was caught by him.
Seeing the door getting closer, Yingying was so panicked that she stopped, Qin Rong was afraid of pulling her down, so she could only stop and look at her, "What's wrong?"
Yingying didn't know what Qin Rong meant, but she had some "bad memories" of Qin Rong's room, and then pulled her hand back. Yingying said politely: "Third brother, you see, it's going to be dark this day... It's not good."
"What's wrong?" Qin Rong looked at the sun that had not yet set, and his dark eyes reflected light in his eyes, and he smiled very flirtatiously.
After all, Yingying didn't want to enter Qinrong's room, and she didn't want to go in any case.
"I don't want to go anyway." She said in such a low voice. She lowered her head and didn't want to look at Qin Rong, and she was in a low mood.
Qin Rong just looked at her quietly, then he quickly let go of her hand and explained to her in a light voice: "Your aunt can't find you everywhere, please ask me to bring you the clothes you want to wear tomorrow."
Yingying heard this clearly, and without waiting for any reaction, her chin itched. Qin Rong used her index finger to lift her chin and force her to look up.
He leaned over and pulled the broken light in Qinrong's eyes to close. He lowered his head and looked at Yingying, saying inexplicably: "The third brother really doesn't know what you are worried about every day."
