"Young Master?" Shen Chongyao was stunned. "Have you told me your name?"
Without waiting for Xianyun to answer, Old Madam Zhu stood up excitedly: "Quick, please come in! It's Ning'er!"
Shen Chongyao was startled: "Ning'er?"
Madam Zhu helped Xiuyu get out of bed: "Yes. No, I'd better go with you."
Now that Shen Chengying and Shen Ruyao have gotten into trouble, Ning'er has become Shen Chongyan's only blood relative, and her position in the old lady's heart has become more than a hundred times more important.
At this time, Xianyun looked at the second master awkwardly and said hesitantly, "Master, the young master said that he only wants you to meet him."
The leg that had just taken a step forward stopped awkwardly in place. Old Madam Zhu seemed to have a basin of cold water poured over her head, and she immediately fell silent.
Shen Chongyao didn't dare to say anything more. He just bowed to the old lady and told his wife, "Take good care of mother. I'll go see what's going on."
Then he hurriedly followed Xianyun out.
When he went out of the second door, he saw a familiar figure in the distance. Shen Chongyao's legs went weak and he was about to kneel down in front of everyone.
It was Xiao Ding who quickly grabbed his collar and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, please do not alarm outsiders. Second Master, please treat the guests as usual."
Shen Chongyao stretched his neck and bowed, wishing he could bend his waist to the ground: "Greetings... I didn't expect the master to come. I hope you will forgive me for not welcoming you."
Chu Huan snorted coldly: "You have two eyes for nothing."
Shen Chongyao then dared to raise his head and look around, and saw a thin young man leaning on the hexagonal Huanghuali armchair against the wall, with his back to everyone, as if he was angry with someone.
He cried out "Ouch!" and hurriedly walked around to the person, saying with a smile, "Let me see who is here?"
In front of me stood a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth. He wore a gold-inlaid jade crown on his head and was dressed in luxurious attire. Upon closer inspection, I realized it was Ning'er.
Ning'er looked up at him but said nothing.
Shen Chongyao's mind raced like lightning, and he thought to himself that something was wrong. Miss Ning seemed to be in a bad mood. He hurriedly bowed and smiled, "So it's our Mr. Ning."
Ning Er was not a domineering person. Seeing Shen Chongyao's courtesy, she could only stand up and bowed: "Greetings, Second Master."
Shen Chongyao felt a headache when he saw that His Majesty's eyes were fixed on Miss Ning, but Ning was avoiding him very deliberately.
Could it be that these two ancestors had a quarrel?
I could only pretend I didn't know and said with a laugh, "It is a great honor for you two to visit my humble abode. But it is not convenient to talk here. Why don't you please move aside and let's go inside and have a chat?"
"What do you think, sir?"
Ning Er nodded stiffly: "The guest should follow the host's wishes. I will listen to the Second Master."
Shen Chongyao turned his back and wiped the sweat off his face. He smiled again and escorted Chu Huan and Miss Ning into the mansion. Unexpectedly, Ning'er stopped and asked into the air, "Why do you want to go in too?"
Shen Er was confused when he heard his Majesty respond in a good-tempered manner: "If you are unhappy, I will wait for you outside."
Shen Chongyao was terrified and said hurriedly, "How can this be done? Absolutely not!"
Ning Er turned her head, snorted softly, and said awkwardly, "It's up to you."
----
In this weird atmosphere, Shen Chongyao led everyone to Xuanle Hall with trepidation.
Seeing that Chu Huan and Ning Er had no intention of speaking, Shen Chongyao could only casually change the subject: "I think you enjoyed the banquet today, young master?"
As soon as he said this, he almost bit off his tongue. Isn't this just bringing up something that is not relevant?
Just by looking at the old lady's dejected look, you can tell that nothing good will happen at the eldest princess's banquet.
Chu Huan looked at Shen Er in surprise. He was usually quite smart, so why was he acting so stupid now?
Shen Chongyao knew he had said something wrong. He laughed awkwardly and changed the subject awkwardly: "Today I was careless and tripped over the stirrup when I got off the horse, and fell backwards."
Oh, no wonder, it turns out that his brain was damaged.
Ning Er looked up and asked, "Second Master, please be careful not to fall and get hurt."
Shen Chongyao smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your concern, Master Ning. Thanks to the grace of His Majesty, I only have some scratches on my skin, nothing else is wrong."
Ning Er said, "That's strange, but what does it have to do with Your Majesty?"
Shen Chongyao was almost choked by this, and he racked his brains to smooth things over: "This... this is wrong. The emperor is wise and helps the world, and all the people are benefiting from it. Chongyao is also among them. How can you say that he has nothing to do with it?"
Ning Er glared at him and whispered, "Flatterer."
Chu Huan almost laughed out loud. He coughed softly and hinted, "Yishan, I wonder how Lord Shen is doing?"
Shen Chongyao was stunned at first, but then he suddenly realized that the girl had returned home for this matter! When the incident happened that day, she seemed to have a grudge against her eldest brother. I think it was because of His Majesty's advice that she came today, so she was very unhappy.
He had a plan in mind, and hurriedly said, "My Lord, the Marquis's condition seemed to have relapsed a few days ago. He had a high fever for two days and nights and was unconscious. Judge Xue used a golden needle on him, and he woke up the next morning, but when he opened his eyes, he spat out a large mouthful of blood!"
When Ning'er heard this, her heart tightened and she unconsciously gripped the handrail tightly.
Shen Chongyao noticed her expression and felt relieved. He then said slowly, "But the Marquis is very lucky. After vomiting blood, the Marquis has gotten much better and recovered even faster than before. Even the two doctors were amazed and said that this is what the ancient books say, 'One must be reborn after being put to death.'"
After saying this, Ning Er let out a breath calmly. Chu Huan smiled and said, "This is also Lord Shen's good fortune. I am not qualified to go there, and I am afraid I will disturb the patient. Please ask Yi Shan to accompany Young Master Ning to take a look."
Ning'er immediately straightened up and glanced at Chu Huan, but she didn't say anything to refuse.
Shen Chongyao was so happy that he stood up and said politely, "That's great! But I'm afraid it will take some time to go back and forth, which will inevitably neglect the master."
Chu Huan said: "It's okay, don't you have two young masters in your family? Anyway, I have nothing to do today, so call them over to meet me."
Hearing this, the corners of Shen Chongyao's mouth, which had been grinning from ear to ear, suddenly stiffened. He stuttered, "This, I am ignorant, I am afraid of offending you..."
Chu Huan waved his hand and said generously: "It's okay. No need to say more, you should accompany Master Ning well. That's the important thing."
Shen Chongyao wanted to cry but had no tears. He could only order Feixing to quickly bring the two boys to see His Majesty. He only regretted that he could not explain all the instructions in person. Then he bowed and led Ning'er to the place where Xinyuan Hou was recuperating with trepidation.
