The Dreamer in the Spring Boudoir

Chapter 16: The murderer not found

Views:

Loving someone who doesn't love you, but still refusing to let go, is like a moth to a flame, its wings are shattered and it struggles to fall to the place closest to the flame, it's sad and pitiful.

When Ji Man regained consciousness, he felt that Nie Sangyu's body had just been burned by a fire. Not to mention the discomfort, it was also scalding hot.

Opening her eyes vigorously, she saw Ning Errong looking at her happily and said, "Sang Yu, are you awake?"

The room seemed to be very dark, and there was no one else except Er Rong. Ji Man opened her mouth, and Er Rong hurriedly poured water, and poured it down for her ungentlely.

This is also someone who has never served anyone before, so he doesn't know the seriousness at all. Ji Man was choked and coughed for a long time, his head was still a little dizzy, and he asked her with half-opened eyes: "Who rescued me?"

Ning Errong looked at her solemnly: "My brother rescued you, Sang Yu, what happened to you last night? How did you fall into the river? If it wasn't for your brother, you might have died!"

Ji Man thought about it hard, she remembered that she couldn't sleep and came out to breathe, and then saw the prince on the boat ahead, and then was forced to jump into the river by two black shadows.

Prince? Ji Man's body trembled, and Ji Man suddenly recalled the quiet and long sound of the prince's piano last night, and how she shouted, and no one woke up the two silent big boats. It was all like a nightmare, and she woke up, thankfully alive.

Who wants to kill her? Ji Man didn't figure it out, if it was the crown prince, wouldn't he be afraid that she would survive to sue him, causing Mo Yuhou to have a rift with him

"Ma'am." The door was knocked twice, and Jinse's voice sounded outside: "You are not in the room, Master Hou is looking for you."

Ji Man came back to his senses, his whole body was still weak, his forehead was a little hot, and his face must have been pale. Looking at Ning Errong, the latter gave her a reassuring look, then turned around and opened the door.

"Sang Yu is sick. She came to sleep with me yesterday, but accidentally caught a cold." Ning Errong looked at Jinse outside, with no expression on his face: "Who is my cousin looking for in the morning? You are waiting for me." not enough?"

Jinse was a little embarrassed, took a look into the room, and bent to leave. Errong rolled his eyes angrily, closed the door and went back to Jiman's bed, reached out to take the medicine on the side and said, "It's strange, everyone seemed to be sleeping very deeply yesterday, I called Baizhi for a long time and she couldn't help it." Wake up, elder brother boiled this medicine for you himself, you drink it first and sweat."

There was no trace of anything in the house, and everyone only woke up at noon, so they didn't feel that there was anything wrong last night at all.

Mo Yuhou also came to Ning Errong's place not long after, seeing Ji Man's really sick face, he said lightly: "It's good to have a rest."

"Did Hou Ye hear any strange noises last night?" Ji Man asked looking into his eyes.

Ning Yuxuan looked back at her quietly, his eyes were as deep as Jiang Shui: "No, I slept well."

Ji Man nodded, seeing Mo Yuhou turned and left, he finally understood in his heart.

In all likelihood, the prince did this. He wanted to get rid of her silently. There was no possibility that he had planned and failed, but even if she guessed it was the prince now, there was no evidence to prove him. She was from the Nie family, and Mo Yuhou didn't trust her wholeheartedly, so even if he told Ning Yuxuan what happened last night, it was useless.

It seems that it is very difficult to live well. Ji Man gave a wry smile, and lay down quietly to sleep after drinking the medicine.

Ning Mingjie did not tell anyone else about Ji Man's falling into the water, except Nie Qingyun.

No one on this boat hated Nie Sangyu anymore, because she was very generous and decent in handling things along the way, which completely broke people's previous impression of her. In addition, she doesn't complain about anything, and she is willing to take on hard things, so everyone's favorability towards her has been greatly improved.

But Ning Mingjie felt that there were only two people who were sincere to her and cared for her, one was Er Rong and the other was Nie Qingyun.

As for Ning Yuxuan, he felt that it would be very rare for him not to sell Nie Sangyu.

When Nie Qingyun knew about this, he was silent for a while and wanted to find Mo Yuhou, but Ning Mingjie quickly stopped him.

"Looking for him won't help." He smiled lightly, holding a broken jade pendant in his hand, and said, "Last night, someone threw potions into various rooms, but someone also put antidotes into my room and Nie Sangyu's. I admire you for being kind and bitter. But I don’t know the identity of that person, he took the jade pendant and smashed it at my door, and I just picked up this piece of jade pendant.”

Slamming the door with a jade pendant, I think it is a person who is in a hurry and doesn't care about money. Nie Qingyun took the broken jade in Ning Mingjie's hand and looked at it. It was made of ordinary material, and even if it was broken like this, it was hard to see what pattern was on it. The people on this boat are all relatives of the emperor, and anyone can afford a piece of jade pendant.

Nie Qingyun frowned and thought for a while: "Could it be Yuxuan?"

Ning Mingjie paused, stroked the jade pendant and said, "Probably not, if it were him, why bother."

Think about it too, if Ning Yuxuan knew that Sang Yu was going to be killed, it would be fine if he couldn't save him directly, why bother to lead others. Nie Qingyun shook his head and sighed, Sang Yu had suffered such a great grievance, and he couldn't let Lord Hou make the decision. I don't know how uncomfortable it must be. He still had to go see it quickly.

Ning Errong guarded Sangyu to let her sleep, and stopped at Qinzhou for lunch at noon today. Mo Yuhou didn't ask anyone to call Sangyu, but ordered Licorice Wick to bring the meal back.

Licorice put the food on the table while rubbing her neck, and muttered in a low voice, "Did I have a nightmare last night? When I woke up, I hit a big lump on my head."

Dim Wick was thinking about Sang Yu's illness. She had a sad face at first, but she couldn't help but turn around and laugh at her when she heard this: "You must have been sleepwalking yesterday, otherwise you would have fallen asleep in our room, why would you run away?" Are you going to lie down on the master's bed?"

Licorice hurriedly waved her hand, looked at Ning Errong and said in a low voice, "Miss Biao, don't tell the master, the slave girl didn't know what happened last night, she obviously slept very deeply, and there should be no sleepwalking in the middle. But when I woke up today, unexpectedly It was sleeping on the master's bed, but the master came to you."

Ning Errong tilted his head and looked at Licorice suspiciously, but thinking that these two people were trusted by Sang Yu, he said, "It's okay, maybe it's really sleepwalking."

Licorice breathed a sigh of relief, although the master should be magnanimous and not care about it, but if people know that she is a maid sleeping on the master's bed, it is against the rules.

The emperor and his relatives had dinner in Linshuilou, and the crown prince shared the table with Mo Yuhou. Seeing that the seat next to him was empty, he asked with a smile, "What's wrong with Sang Yu?"

"Well, I heard that I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and ran to chat with Er Rong, but I caught a cold." Ning Yuxuan said calmly: "She can't come down to eat, I have already asked the servant girl to send her back."

"Fengchi?" The prince raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is there no serious problem?"

"I don't know about this Yuxuan. I went to see it in the morning. His face is a bit ugly, but he still has energy." Mo Yuhou turned to look at Ning Mingjie: "Mingjie's face doesn't look too good either. Didn't sleep in the middle of the night, carrying something? Woke me up."

Both Ning Mingjie and Nie Qingyun's heart skipped a beat. Mo Yuhou was also awake last night? Now that he is asking this question, is it possible that Ning Mingjie is going to say that he went into the water to fish for people, so he also caught a cold

After a pause, before he could speak, the prince looked at Ning Mingjie and said, "Did Master Ning do something last night?"

"It's nothing." Ning Mingjie lowered his eyes, his unmasked face looked innocent: "It's just that I couldn't sleep last night and walked around, did you disturb Yuxuan?"

"It's okay." Ning Yuxuan smiled slightly.

There was a sudden silence on the table, and the men had different thoughts. Zhao Che unexpectedly found that he didn't have much anger in his heart, but thought that Nie Sangyu was still alive, and he had to make another move, so his mood was a bit complicated.

Listening to their conversation just now, Ning Mingjie was the one who saved Nie Sangyu last night. The crown prince glanced at the man again. Ning Mingjie, who had removed the mask, was handsome and handsome, which was in line with the elegance that those literati are looking for nowadays. In addition, this talent is very talented, and his behavior is also within the rules. Last time, he also made a contribution to protecting the third brother. It is estimated that he will be able to climb all the way when he goes back.

It's a pity that he found out that he was going to attack Nie Sangyu. The people who could have been wooed can only be handed over to the third brother now.

Sighing, the prince cast a sideways glance at Mo Yuhou, who didn't care about Nie Sangyu at all, and didn't even ask her if she fell into the water or if it was really just a cold, but he was really heartless.

Coincidentally, he liked that he was ruthless towards Nie Sangyu.

Smiling silently, Zhao Zhe lowered his head and continued to eat.

After the meal, the Third Prince went to visit Sangyu with Concubine Nie as his cousin. Nie Qingyun was naturally also on the way, but Ning Yuxuan looked at so many people and said: "The room is not big, and you have so many distinguished guests, so I won't join in the fun. There are also some small things in Qinzhou, I will take Jinse there Go shopping."

Concubine Nie's eyes were heartbroken, but Mo Yuhou pretended not to see her, and left with Jinse in his arms.

Ji Man was sleeping soundly when someone shook him awake. Ning Errong hurriedly said: "Many people have come to see you, Sang Yu, wake up quickly."

A patient needs a good rest, but this visit made her feel uneasy. Jiman sat up in pain with a soft pillow behind his waist, and asked Errong to moisten his throat with porridge, so that he could not speak like a voice of someone who is about to die.

Because wind-cold is a contagious disease, Concubine Nie and others sat far away when they visited the sick, and asked her through the bed curtain, "Why do you get sick so well?"

Ji Man smiled bitterly and said, "Auntie, don't worry, it's just a slight wind and cold, just take a nap and you'll be fine."

The third prince sighed softly: "Eldest brother is really ignorant. At this time, I sent a woman to Yuxuan. Men are greedy for new things. Now I go out with someone in my arms. How can I care about you?"
