The second day after his birthday was the day when King An would send Ning Lang news on weekdays.
Because of her birthday yesterday, Ning Nuan slept later than usual and woke up later than usual. She went to Ning Lang's house, thinking that there were already two letters on the desk. But it was empty, with nothing.
Ning Nuan was stunned for a moment, then walked out of the door and grabbed a little maid and asked, "Has anyone been to my brother's house today?"
"Miss Hui, no one has been to the young master's house today."
"Madame hasn't been here yet?"
"no."
Ning Nuan was stunned, and then let go of the maid. She looked back again, and then returned to her room in confusion.
As soon as she entered the door, she immediately asked, "Xiang Tao, did you go to your brother's house today?"
Xiang Tao was helping her to pack up her jewelry, and she replied without turning her head, "Miss, this servant hasn't left the yard today."
This is so strange. Ning Nuan thought about this in her heart, walked slowly to the table and sat down. On weekdays, King An had already sent someone to deliver the letter at this time, and Ning Nuan was used to reading his letter, but today he didn't even see the shadow of a letter.
The news sent by Wang An has never been late, let alone delayed, and Ning Nuan was the first to miss it.
She was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but ask Xiang Tao, "Have you heard about King An recently?"
"King An? The servants haven't heard any news from King An these days, and King An has not sent anyone to deliver anything." Xiang Tao packed her jewelry and walked out with the jewelry box in her hand: "Miss, these are Where do you keep your old jewelry?"
Ning Nuan didn't care about this, and replied casually, "You can do it."
Xiang Tao took the jewelry box and walked back into the house.
When she came out again, she was instructed by Ning Nuan again: "Go outside and find out what King An has done these days. I went to my brother's house today, and I didn't see any news that King An sent. Could it be that my brother came out What's the matter?"
The news that I would see on weekdays hadn't come for a long time, and Ning Nuan was strange. On the other hand, he couldn't help guessing Ning Lang's movements. Counting the days, Ning Lang has already arrived in Qingzhou, Qingzhou is full of bandits, but don't let anything happen there.
Xiang Tao responded and walked out.
Before she walked out of the yard, Jiang Yunlan approached her. Seeing her walking out, Jiang Yunlan stopped her immediately: "Where are you going?"
"Madam, Miss asked me to go out and inquire, saying that I didn't hear from the young master today."
"It turned out to be this, don't ask about it." Jiang Yunlan said: "I came here to talk about this matter. We can't wait for the news from King An in the past few days."
Xiang Tao couldn't help but be surprised.
She followed Jiang Yunlan into the house, and Jiang Yunlan told the cause of the incident: "It turns out that the fireworks last night were set off by Wang An, he went out during the curfew and violated the ban, but now he is caught in the cell. We can only wait for Lang'er to send a letter these days."
"Are the fireworks set off by King An?" Ning Nuan was surprised: "Is King An still caught?"
"That's right, when I heard the news, I was also taken aback. I didn't come here and tell you. You can also rest assured. In the next few days, Wang An will not send anyone to your door. It's over." Jiang Yunlan was in a happy mood and couldn't help laughing: "He and the little servant beside him were arrested by the officers and soldiers who were patrolling at night. Now there is not even a single person in charge of the Prince An's mansion, and there is still chaos there. Now, busy with catching their princes out, how can they take care of us."
After Ning Nuan listened, she felt relieved.
It was just fine that she was caught in jail. She thought something had happened, and she was terrified.
"I know that King An sent a letter, and you go to get it every time. You care about your brother the most. If you count the days, today is also the time when King An sent someone to deliver the letter. I was worried that you would miss it, so I came here to tell you. Say it." Jiang Yunlan said, and went out again: "Mother's side is still busy, the rest will wait for your father to come back, let's talk about it together."
Ning Nuan responded.
She was in a really good mood. She walked briskly when she left, and suddenly heard that King An was arrested and is now suffering in prison. She was happier than a windfall from heaven.
Inside the cell.
Chu Fei stood at the door with a stinky face, while Wang Quan tidied up his seat and respectfully invited him over to sit down.
"My lord, don't be angry." Wang Quan whispered: "Besides, the servant called you several times, but you just didn't leave. Now that you are caught, that's normal."
"What's normal!" Chu Fei said angrily, "Now that the whole city knows that this king has violated the curfew and was arrested, where is this king's face?"
"It's not a curfew." Wang Quan said, "Your Majesty, you lit fireworks, but the emperor ordered it to prohibit it. Since the beginning of summer, you are the first to violate the ban."
Not only did the emperor make a clear order, but ordinary people couldn't even buy them if they wanted to, but it was their lord who had a long way to go and bought these fireworks. Who knew this was just finished and caught
Chu Fei's face became even more stinky, but he couldn't say anything to refute, so he could only knock him on the head angrily. All his fans were taken away by the jailers, and there was not even a single item in his hand.
He angrily went to the seat that Wang Quan had just cleaned up and sat down with a stern face, just waiting for someone to come and fish him out.
Wang Quan was still comforting: "Don't worry, my lord, the emperor will know about this soon, and will send someone to release you soon."
Chu Fei: "..."
Chu Fei hates it even more!
After finally waiting for the official to leave the morning, there was a movement at the gate of the prison. I saw the gate opened, and a man in official uniform hurried in. Chu Fei stood up immediately, watching the man run to stop in front of him, and immediately raised his chin, waiting for the man to open the cell door.
"His Royal Highness Prince An." The visitor bowed respectfully and said, "You are suffering here."
Chu Fei snorted, "Then why don't you release this king?"
"This..." The visitor hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The emperor ordered that the lower officials will keep His Highness Prince An in prison for a few more days..."
Chu Fei: "..."
He couldn't maintain his composure all of a sudden, and said in surprise: "Impossible!"
"This is indeed what the emperor himself said." The official wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "The emperor said, His Royal Highness An Wang knew that he had committed a crime, so he would be locked up for a few more days to keep his memory long."
"..." Chu Fei suddenly changed his face: "Then did he say when he will release this king?"
"The emperor said, close it... close it..."
"How long?"
The official's voice suddenly fell, and he said in a stern voice, "Half a month."
Chu Fei: "..."
"Then what else did the emperor say?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Your Majesty said that you can do everything except that you can't go out. You just need to treat this cell as a palace, and the lower official will immediately send someone to bring the things you want, the prince." The official paused and asked again. : "Do I need to speak to the palace for you and the palace?"
Chu Fei's face was blue and black, and he endured it, almost not holding back.
He said with a dark face: "Bring the steward of this king's palace!"
The officer responded and hurried out.
Not long after, the housekeeper of the palace also rushed to the cell. As soon as he saw Chu Fei, he immediately exclaimed: "My lord, you are so good, why did you get caught in the prison!"
He glanced around again, and suddenly felt distressed: "My lord, where have you suffered this kind of hardship on weekdays, look at where people live, the lord will be locked up here for half a month, when you come out, don't …”
"Okay, okay." Chu Fei interrupted him: "Don't curse me here."
The steward hurriedly closed his mouth, and then asked again, "Then lord, what are your orders?"
"come here."
Chu Fei leaned into the steward's ear and whispered a long series of words. The steward nodded repeatedly. After he finished speaking, he asked, "Do you remember?"
"Remember, lord, don't worry, the servant will now go and do what you ordered."
Chu Fei was satisfied, and then urged, "Don't forget the most important thing."
"The slaves all remember!"
The steward came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
When he came back, he brought a lot of things with him. He brought all the things that Chu Fei was used to. The damp cell was completely new, and a red sandalwood bed was placed in the small cell. The manager was afraid that he would not live well.
The steward originally wanted to find someone to serve, but was stopped by Chu Fei, saying that the cell was too small to live in, and only Wang Quan was enough. The manager was so anxious that he almost went to the jailer for accommodation and asked him to allocate another cell for the servants to live in.
Before he left, Chu Fei also took his hand and warned: "In these days when this king is not in the palace, you should take good care of the palace, don't let anyone in, remember, it's anyone."
The steward repeatedly assured: "Don't worry, my lord, the servants will remember."
"And that..."
He didn't say anything, but the steward immediately understood what he meant and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, wang ye, Miss Ning has already sent someone to send the news. Last night, I suddenly heard that wang ye you were in prison, and the servant panicked for a while before sending the message. It's been delayed."
Chu Fei was finally satisfied.
"Remember, don't delay this in the next few days." If it is delayed, I don't know what A Nuan will think.
The butler responded quickly.
…
She didn't receive news from her brother as usual, so Ning Nuan always felt that something was wrong. After lunch, she subconsciously went to Ning Lang's room to take a look. But he saw a familiar envelope on the table.
It's just that this time there was only one letter, which contained the latest news from Ning Lang, but the letter that was filled with Chu Fei's chattering words didn't come.
Thinking about it, King An was in prison and couldn't get out to write to her.
But when did this letter come
Ning Nuan opened the letter and read it, read it from beginning to end, and then went out to find Jiang Yunlan. She thought of something, and as soon as she went out, she asked the maid who was guarding nearby: "Did you see anyone entering the young master's room today?"
The maid said: "Miss, the servant did not see anything."
Ning Nuan couldn't help but become curious.
The people sent by King An came and went without a trace. It's just that Ning Nuan looked around, but couldn't find a place to hide.
She went to Jiang Yunlan first, and showed Jiang Yunlan the news of Ning Lang. Out of curiosity, she returned to Ning Lang's house.
The table was still empty and nothing.
"It's strange, how did my brother communicate with King An before?" Ning Nuan wondered, "Could it be that he also put the letter on the table and waited for it to be taken away?"
But if this is the case, Qingsong has already discovered it, and she has already known it.
She was wondering when she suddenly heard a sound from the right side of the room, Ning Nuan turned her head subconsciously, and saw a window opened and closed, but there was no one beside the window.
Ning Nuan: "…"
She reacted with hindsight, this seems to be a reminder to her from someone sent by King An
Ning Nuan walked over, pushed open the window and glanced out, the window was empty and no one was there. She was about to close the window when suddenly a ball of paper was thrown in, wiping her head and falling to the ground.
Ning Nuan was startled and hesitated for a while before closing the window, calming down the panic in her heart, and then bent down to pick up the paper ball.
The ball of paper unfolded, and it was a few words that were written in a hurry at a glance.
It reads: What does Ning girl want to say to the prince
Ning Nuan: "…"
Why is this person sent by King An as shameless as him
She was just curious. She hadn't stayed in this room for a long time, and she had something to say to Prince An, but she couldn't find a way to communicate it? I don't know if this person was instructed by someone, but he was very attentive, as if he was eager for her to say something to King An.
Ning Nuan reached for the brush on the pen holder. Just as he was about to sharpen the ink, he suddenly thought of something. After a pause, he asked loudly, "Have you been watching here?"
"..."
The window was opened, nothing was thrown in, and it was accepted.
Ning Nuan thought for a while, and then asked, "Can you help me spread the word?"
A leaf floated in.
"That's how you preached for my brother too?"
After a while, another ball of paper was thrown in.
Ning Nuan walked over and picked it up. It was still written in a hurry. It said how Ning Lang communicated with King An, and also mentioned that if she wanted to tell King An, she would also Can pass like this.
Ning Nuan understood. She burned the paper ball, went back and closed the window, and left the house.
The dark guard, who was hiding in the dark, was dumbfounded. Their prince once said that they must not reveal their existence. He didn't want to speak at first, but seeing Miss Ning walking around the room, she seemed to be looking for a letter from their prince. He thought it was girl Ning who was finally caught by the prince. Impressed, thinking of helping the lord, he couldn't help revealing himself.
But now it seems, how come he exposed himself, but he didn't ask for anything for the prince
The dark guard was very distressed, and when the time came, he changed classes with his companions, and hurried back to tell their prince about this.
After reading the note brought by the steward, Chu Fei was overjoyed: "Is she actually looking for me?"
Wang Quan whispered a few words in his heart, and kept responding: "Miss Ning must have been moved by the prince."
"Exactly, this king also thinks so." Chu Fei said happily: "Since she is looking for me, then I can't waste her kindness."
Wang Quan couldn't help sympathizing with Ning girl in his heart.
Chu Fei said to the steward, "Prepare pen and paper for this king. From tomorrow, this king wants you to come here every day."
The steward responded quickly.
The next day, Ning Nuan just woke up when she saw Xiang Tao walk in with a letter in confusion.
"Miss, as soon as the servant opened the door today, she saw a letter placed on the door. It said that the lady must come and open it in person."
Ning Nuan: "…"
She couldn't help but raised her voice and called Xiang Tao over: "Bring it here and show it to me."
Xiang Tao handed the letter to her, and Ning Nuan took it over and saw that the envelope was indeed a familiar handwriting.
She was speechless for a moment, then put the letter aside, and when she came back after grooming, seeing the letter on the table, she couldn't help tearing it apart.
Inside it was indeed a letter from Chu Fei to her.
Even the matter of her looking for the dark guard yesterday was known to King An, which made Chu Fei happy. things were said. The days in the prison cell are not interesting, it can even be said to be boring, but when it came to his mouth, he was stunned by what he said was full of wit.
After reading it, Ning Nuan was left speechless.
She read the letter over and over several times, and suddenly noticed a strange place.
In the letter, Chu Fei said everything, but did not say why he was caught in the cell. Ning Nuan only knew that he set off fireworks during the curfew, but he didn't know that it was so good, why did he go out to set off fireworks at night? Write it down, where would you miss such an important thing.
Ning Nuan couldn't find it in the letter, and couldn't help but be curious.
The dark guard helped her pass a letter, and he felt that he had made a contribution, and he couldn't be proud of it.
Seeing that Ning Nuan frowned again, and whispered something, his mind moved, and he immediately went to Ning Lang's house to borrow a pen and paper, and wrote down everything that happened that night.
Ning Nuan picked up another paper ball at the door of the house.
She unfolded it, and saw a crooked line of words on it.
It reads: Miss Ning, our lord set off fireworks yesterday as a birthday present for you.
Ning Nuan: "…"
She got it.
This is to set off fireworks for her, and as a result, she is sent to the cell.
It's no wonder that Wang An was reluctant to say it. On weekdays, he had long since come over to ask her to be moved by this matter, but this time he didn't even reveal a word. Thinking about it, he felt very embarrassed. things tell her.
Ning Nuan laughed in her heart, and when there was no one else, she said, "This is what your lord asked you to say? Why don't you ask your lord, is he happy when I know about this?"
Dark Guard: "..."
The clever secret guard went to ask the steward to deliver a letter to the prison in a puzzled way.
When Chu Fei received the letter, his entire face turned black.
Wang Quan looked at his face beside him and wondered, "Your Highness?"
Chu Fei replied angrily, "What?"
Wang Quan asked, "Your Highness, you received news from Ning girl again, are you not happy?"
Chu Fei: "..."
What is he happy about!
Chu Fei was indignant. Looking at Wang Quan's cautious look, he couldn't help but take his anger out. He reached out and tapped his head heavily.
Wang Quan was immediately aggrieved: "Your Highness?"
"You idiots!" Chu Fei gritted his teeth and said, "I thought they were smart, why are they..." Why did you tell A Nuan such a shameful thing!
It's better now, humiliated and thrown in front of A Nuan!
Chu Fei angrily tore the note into a ball, walked to the table, dared to pick up the pen and paper, and was about to write, but suddenly became tangled again.
How should he explain it? Can A Nuan have a better impression of him
A Nuan is so smart, if he explained it again, wouldn't it be superfluous, and if A Nuan thought he was unreliable, what should he do
Chu Fei struggled for a while, hesitating when he wrote the pen. He threw a few balls of paper at his feet before he let out a long sigh and put down the pen in his hand.
"My lord?" Wang Quan asked cautiously beside him: "My lord, what happened?"
"You... No." Chu Fei gritted his teeth and said, "Call the steward."
Wang Quan was at a loss, and he said to the jailer, and the steward of the palace hurried over from the palace.
Chu Fei asked him to listen to him, and whispered through gritted teeth: "Change the person from Ningfu to someone with a tighter mouth. The previous one will deduct his monthly bill for a month!"
He paused for a while, then said: "You can send someone to Baozhizhai again to buy more snacks, just buy the ones that this king usually wants, and have them deliver to Ningfu. Remember, you must deliver it. into the hands of Miss Ning."
The steward was surprised, Chu Fei glared at him again, and the steward took the order and left.
When the dark guard of Ningfu received the news, he only felt that a thunderbolt hit his head from the sunny sky. He did not dare to resist, and could only accept the news with grievances.
The dark guard who succeeded him came soon. He learned his lesson. The new dark guard did not dare to say a word. He only put Chu Fei's letter at the door of Ning Nuan's house every day, and then regularly sent Ning Lang. The news was placed in Ning Lang's room.
On the contrary, it was Ning Nuan, who received the letter from Chu Fei again, and felt even more amused in his heart when he saw that he just pretended that nothing had happened in his heart.
The snacks that the steward sent someone to buy were also delivered to the door of Ning Mansion. With Wang Quan's previous example, and their prince's order this time, this time the dim sum was stopped at the door of Ning's house, and then passed through the hand of the dark guard to the door of Ning Nuan's house.
Ning Nuan actually received it. She knew in her heart who sent it. She laughed in her heart, but she didn't take it, but let the little girl divide the snacks.
Chu Fei was counting the days with his fingers in the prison. After waiting for half a month, he immediately took Wang Quan back to the palace. He packed himself up, put on the original brocade clothes, and put on The exquisite jade crown took back his fan from the jailer, and suddenly changed his body from a prisoner to a handsome and suave prince.
Chu Fei waved his fan and couldn't wait to ride the carriage to the gate of Ning Mansion, coming to save his image.
