As Ning'er moved, Lu Kui's heartstrings were tense.
Suddenly, Ning'er turned to him, her face was so pale that it was almost transparent, her lips without a trace of blood were slightly opened, and she only said a name to him, and then, as if she had exhausted her last bit of strength, she closed her eyes and fell on her back.
"Miss Ning!" Lu Kui's subconscious actions were much faster than his brain. He rushed forward and dangerously reached out to hold Ning'er. But no matter how he called her, she didn't respond at all, as if she had fallen into a very deep coma.
Ling Wei, Lu Kui's mind was buzzing, who is it? This name is very unfamiliar, but from Ning'er's expression, it is clear that he should know her.
She told herself this name before she fainted. Was she going to go find him?
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Lu Kui's mind, but his hands were extremely steady and restrained, holding Ning'er's waist and back firmly without being abrupt to her at all.
Shen Chongyan watched Ning'er fall down. At that moment, the blood in his body froze. He stood up subconsciously, but as soon as he straightened his back, he fell heavily to the ground.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he angrily hit the ground with his hands, and said anxiously: "Ning'er!"
Shen Chongyao had already rushed to Ning'er's side, but seeing this, he had to turn back to take care of his brother first. He was so anxious that he wiped his sweat: "Brother, you are worried about Ning'er, and you shouldn't treat yourself badly. If you don't take care of yourself first, how are you going to take care of her?"
This sentence touched Shen Chongyan's heart. He stopped and remained silent.
Shen Chongyao hurriedly advised Lu Kui: "Sir, the palace doctor is in the back room, take the girl to see him immediately. If you are worried, Doctor Liu from the palace is also in the palace, I will go find her."
But Lu Kui didn't buy it. He sneered, "The mess in Xinyuan Marquis' Mansion, please trouble Lord Shen and Lord Shen to clean it up first. There's poison and blood here. What has happened to Miss Ning? You may feel relieved to treat her here, but I do."
He ordered Han Guang: "Go find a maid who is close to the girl and take her with you. Let's go."
Shen Chongyao said anxiously, "Leave? How? Where to? Ning'er is my eldest brother's daughter, and she is originally from the Marquis' Mansion. If you take her away like this, what will happen to her reputation?"
Lu Kui seemed to have heard a huge joke: "Reputation? Haha, is there any reputation left in the Xinyuan Marquis's Mansion?" He glanced around the room coldly: "Could it be that it relies on this first-rank lady who poisoned her husband, poisoned her son, abused her maids and killed her servants?"
When he reached the Moon Gate, he seemed to remember something and turned around and said, "I advise Lord Shen that if you can still be the head of the family, you should take these people into custody and don't make them disappear or get sick easily! Their lives belong to the girl."
He frowned and called out, "Hanguang, what are you still standing there for? Let's go."
After saying this, he waved his sleeves and left with his men.
Before they walked out of the yard, they ran into a group of people head-on.
"What, what happened?" Old Madam Zhu was confused. She looked at Ning'er, who was unconscious in Lu Kui's arms, and was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
She was half asleep when she heard a strange noise and woke up from her couch. She didn't know why she felt very uneasy. She called Xiuyu and hurried over here without even combing her hair.
When Lu Kui saw that it was her, he couldn't help but sneer. Without saying another word, he just quickened his pace and passed by her.
Let the Shen family deal with their own dirty business first. He couldn't care less about these trivial matters and had to take Ning'er to see his Majesty as soon as possible.
As for who Lingwei was, he really couldn't recognize him, so he could only leave it to His Majesty to worry about.
----
Madam Zhu's heart was pounding, and she had an ominous premonition. She pulled Xiu Yu and said, "Hurry, let's go in."
"Old lady," Xiang Ming came to the door of the inner room and stood in front of the two of them. "Why are you here?" Looking closely, it was not difficult to find that there was a hint of reluctance in her smile.
Xiu Yu said: "The old lady wants to see the Marquis."
Xiang Ming forced a smile and said, "It's late now, the Marquis has gone to bed. If there is anything, the old lady can come back tomorrow."
Old Madam Zhu raised her eyebrows and shouted, "Get out of the way!" Then she walked around Xiang Ming and pushed the door open herself.
"Ah!" She let out a short scream.
Xiu Yu quickly supported the old lady from behind: "Be careful, old lady!" The second time she looked around, she saw the mess in the room.
There were bloodstains everywhere on the bed and the floor. The Marquis was covered in wounds and sat in front of the couch in a daze. Aunt Ye's face was as pale as a paper doll, with a thick towel wrapped around her neck and blood stains all over her collar.
Mrs. Luo's hair was messy and her face was crazy. She was muttering something to a woman on the ground. When she looked at the old woman again, her face was horrible, full of blisters, one eye was covered, the left side of her face was swollen, and the corner of her mouth was torn. When she looked again, it was Liu Kui!
In the whole room, the second master was the only one left alive.
How could Mrs. Zhu bear such a tragic scene? She staggered and almost fainted, but her worry about her son kept her going.
She was extremely anxious: "What happened? Chongyao, what happened?" Old Lady Zhu was thinking about her son and was about to help Chongyan up herself, but was stopped by a look from him.
Shen Chongyao was overwhelmed. When the situation was in a mess, the old lady came over to interfere. How should he answer?
But Shen Chongyan remembered what Lu Kui said before he left. He looked up at his mother and said slowly, "Mother, you are here. It is good that you are here, so that you can know that before I recover from my injury, all matters in the mansion will be handled by my second brother."
Before Mrs. Zhu could get angry, she asked anxiously, "What on earth happened?"
Shen Chongyan did not answer, but instructed Chongyao: "Remember, lock Luo Miaoyun in the inner room, remove all sharp weapons, and do not leave any tables, chairs, or silk in the room. Arrange someone to watch her closely for twelve hours. Except for food, she is not allowed to see anyone or speak."
"If anyone from the Luo family comes, don't see them at all." His tone was filled with disgust. "Tie up Liu Kui and have someone keep a close watch on her. Don't let her die easily, and don't let her get lost again."
"Yan'er!" Old Madam Zhu was so shocked that she couldn't even sit still. "What happened? Miaoyun is your wife, the wife of the Xinyuan Marquis's mansion. What big mistake did she make? How can she live her life if you punish her like this?"
Shen Chongyan ignored the old lady's words and continued to give instructions: "Shen Chengying and Shen Ruyao are confined to their respective courtyards. They are fed and clothed as usual and are not allowed to leave the house without permission."
"What?" Old Madam Zhu was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Shen Chongyao: "Yao'er, go and persuade your elder brother!"
"My lord, your handling seems inappropriate." But the person who spoke was not Shen Chongyao, but Ye Zhen who had been silent for a long time.
She staggered to the front of Old Madam Zhu and bowed weakly: "Old Madam, you are late, and there are many things you don't understand."
Ye Zhen smiled at her and said, "The Marquis is ill and the Second Master is busy with his work, so why not let me explain it to you."
