After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death

A person suddenly left the room, and Lu Kui inexplicably felt that even the atmosphere of the air had subtly changed.

Ning'er didn't say anything, and Lord Lu, who was always sharp-tongued, didn't dare to say a word. He just lowered his head and drank tea silently, occasionally looking up at the girl in front of him.

Her face was so small, seemingly no bigger than her palm, yet so pale, with an unconcealable timidity.

The hardships she experienced in her childhood made her more childish than other girls of the same age, but her eyes... when those eyes fell on Lu Kui, his soul could not help but tremble slightly.

Those were a pair of eyes as bright as stars, but hidden in them was a power as hard and true as diamonds, clear and yet indestructible.

The first time Lu Kui saw her, this power came from the inside out, completely occupying every depth of his body, mind, and soul.

Even she herself seemed unaware of the surging and powerful vitality lurking in her seemingly fragile body.

Lu Kui was staring in a trance.

But Ning Er, who was sitting opposite him, did not have the same complicated mood as him. She held her chin with one hand and thought, "Will there be any problems with Liu Kui?"

"Master Lu, Master Lu?" After calling him twice, Lu Kui finally came back to his senses as if waking from a dream: "Um, Liu Kui?"

He quickly collected his thoughts and said seriously, "I have assigned my most useful team of men to take turns guarding Liu Kui, and they report every two hours. There is no need to worry about them, they can't escape even if they have wings. However, according to the latest intelligence received, Liu Kui was briefly awake last night, but then fell into a coma again. Despite the medication, he has not woken up yet."

Ning'er's brows showed a hint of sadness: "Is her condition very bad?"

Lu Kui whispered, "That may not be the case. It's just that there is a lack of doctors and medicine in that place. Liu is old and suffered such a serious injury suddenly. She has inflammation and high fever, so she was unconscious for a while. But I think it won't be fatal."

Ning'er looked a little nervous: "Is it really like that? But you must save her life."

She didn't need to tell him this, Lu Kui naturally knew the pros and cons, and hurriedly added: "Don't worry, we are always keeping an eye on it. When I woke up this morning, I heard the guards talking about calling for a doctor in the afternoon. I think someone has already gone to see him by now."

Ning Er was relieved at this moment. "Are the people guarding Liu Kui the same two people from last night? Is Qiu Jun still there?"

Lu Kui was startled. "Qiu Jun? Are you talking about that 18 or 19-year-old maid?"

Ning Er said: "It's her."

She slowly let out a sigh of relief: "I went to the laundry today just to look for her. I didn't expect that I would be able to see Master Lu again so soon, otherwise I wouldn't have gone through so much trouble."

Lu Kui whispered, "That girl left in a covered wagon at daybreak. Later, an older woman came. As for Ye Zhen, she left long before daybreak."

Ning Er stood up and said, "She is not in the mansion, nor in that courtyard. I don't know where she went."

Lu Kui followed her and saw that she seemed to be going out, so he quickly went around to the front to open the door for her, and asked, "Miss, are you in a hurry to find her? I'll do it."

Ning Er was touched by his hospitality, smiled at Lu Kui, and left the hall. She said softly, "Sir, don't worry, the key is still with Liu Kui."

Lu Kui said: "That being said, we should not neglect the details."

Ning Er nodded after hearing this and said, "So I'll have to trouble you to keep Madam Luo's matter in mind."

Lu Kui naturally agreed without hesitation.

Shen Chongyao was a man of refined taste. His living quarters were a villa that was decorated extremely exquisitely.

I don't know if he had given these instructions before he left, but the yard was empty at this moment, without even a single person in sight, only the sound of the spring breeze and the swaying of flowers and trees.

She smiled at Lu Kui, "Why are you so nervous when you see me, my Lord?"

This question made Lu Kui stand there in a daze. He didn't expect that the girl would take the initiative to ask this question. He was immediately at a loss as to what to do.

After a long while, he said something that seemed to admit, but also to defend himself: "Kui, I am ashamed of myself."

Ning Er just smiled after hearing this: "Master Lu, I have to thank you very much. You are very busy with official duties, but you still have to take care of the private affairs of a little girl."

As they walked into the courtyard, sunlight poured down and sprinkled on the two of them.

It was not obvious when she was inside the house before, but when the sunlight shone on her, the sick and tired look on Ning'er's face was clearly revealed.

Lu Kui's heart tightened, and he asked hurriedly, "Why is the girl's appearance so different from yesterday? Did something happen today?"

Ning'er raised her hand and touched her cheek, then she remembered that she had fainted not long ago.

She laughed softly and said, "It's nothing serious, just an old problem. Just rest for a few more days and it will be fine."

Lu Kui looked at her disapprovingly and retorted, "How old are you? You are still growing up. What if your foundation is damaged?"

He looked at her worriedly, wanting to persuade her but afraid that she would be unhappy, so he just said, "I know what you asked me to do after seeing you today. Leave Liu Kui to me. You should take care of yourself first, and there is no need to rush. I will pass on any news to you as soon as possible."

Ning'er led him out, the two of them walking one in front and one behind, but with enough space between them.

"Okay, I will." Ning'er spoke slowly. Everything that happened in the past two days filled her mind, making her feel heavy and tired just by thinking about it.

Liu Kui was in a coma, the Marquis was still seriously ill, and she had another inexplicable nightmare today... No matter how anxious she was, she had to be patient. Fortunately, now she not only had many clues, but also found such a powerful external help.

Ning Er listened to him comforting her like this, looked curiously, and said with emotion: "Sometimes I wonder, how can you and Master Chu be so good? Just for a word from him, you are willing to take so much trouble."

She thought of Chu Huan's identity. Compared with common people like them, he was naturally an unattainable prince and phoenix.

But Lu Kui was a powerful official who could enter and leave the palace and the mansion with ease. According to Lin Ruozhen, he was a trusted confidant and right-hand man that His Majesty loved and respected. How could he be so submissive in front of the second son of Prince Rui's mansion?

So much so that Lu Kui could help her so wholeheartedly just by asking Chu Huan to pass on a message.

"Mr. Chu..." It took Lu Kui a moment to react. Who was Miss Ning talking about? He was unusually confused. Where did this come from?

How can you describe Your Majesty and yourself with such presumptuous words?

He subconsciously wanted to answer, isn't it natural to work for His Majesty?

But just as he blurted out the words, he suddenly swallowed them back. Lu Kui looked carefully at Ning'er's expression, and suddenly a firm idea flashed through his mind:

Miss Ning, you don’t even know His Majesty’s identity!
