bastard returns

", this is not bad!

"Your Highness, calm down...Your Highness, calm down...I really don't know why this happened!" Seeing Sikong Yue's gloomy face, Cao Guichun was really paralyzed by fright, and Cao's family not far away also fell to their knees when they saw this. Keep crying.

"You don't know?" Sikong Yue kicked Cao Guichun angrily on the shoulder, kicking him until he screamed, "This is your Cao family's boat, don't you know? Are you so easy to be deceived when you think of it as the main hall!"

"Your Highness, I really thought it was just a dragon's head, and I was wronged!" Cao Guichun cried, "Look carefully, the fifth claw is so small, so inconspicuous, and carved very strangely, it is different from the first four claws. The claws are very uncoordinated, and they were clearly added after the fact to frame my Cao family, Your Highness is wise, don't frame Zhongliang because of such a frame!"

Hearing this, Sikong Yue took a closer look and found that it was really the case, so he said in a deep voice: "Even if someone framed you, but as the head of the Cao family, you didn't investigate everything and allowed such arrogance to appear in the Dragon Boat Hall. Compared with the above, it is also unavoidable to blame, say! Where did this bow come from!"

"This, this..." Cao Guichun rolled his eyes, and suddenly turned his head to Ning Ruhai, "That's right, the Ning family wanted to kill me! The Ning family gave me the bow!"

"Master Cao, don't splash dirty water!" Ning Ruhai panicked.

"I'm not wrong, Mr. Ning, so you are playing such a big game of chess!" Cao Guichun blew his nose at Ning Ruhai and stared, "Aren't you just thinking about using such dirty and low-handed methods to bring me down?" If you fail, you will be able to become the governor of Jiangzhou, you are dreaming! His Highness is here today, he will be able to distinguish right from wrong, and he will not just watch me being framed by traitors!"

"You!" Ning Ruhai really didn't expect Cao Guichun to bite so recklessly, and was about to retort, but Ning Yuan, who was standing behind him, knelt down, lowered his eyebrows and said pleasingly: "Father, Mr. Cao is right, the bow of the boat It was indeed exchanged from our family’s dragon boat.”

"What!" Ning Ruhai's face froze, and he almost cursed out loud. He didn't understand why Ning Yuan had to take the initiative to admit this matter, while Cao Guichun over there obviously showed a relieved expression, and he was complacent and wanted to continue crying out for grievances. But Ning Yuan looked at him and said: "But Mr. Cao, if Xiaosheng remembers correctly, you took the initiative to go over after seeing the bow of our Ning family. My Ning family didn't force you, and I didn't force you. How did it become framed when it got into your mouth?"

"I……"

"And Mr. Cao." Ning Yuan didn't wait for Cao Guichun to distinguish, and interrupted him to continue: "The bow of this boat was carved by a master craftsman from Jiangzhou Dockyard. When the dragon boat was moved to your Cao family’s dragon boat, it still had a clear four-clawed dragon’s head. All the boatmen in Jiangzhou Dockyard have witnessed this and can testify to it. Now this boat’s head has somehow become five-clawed in your Cao’s house. Long Shou, you want to slander that I was framed by the Ning family, it is too untenable."

"You...you..." Cao Guichun was indisputable by Ning Yuan's words. Indeed, he was the one who asked to come here on his own initiative. He was complacent for a long time when he heard that the Ning family was willing to give it to him. Yuan retorted so frankly, and he didn't know how to defend himself, so he could only keep holding Sikong Yue's leg and screaming for injustice.

"Hmph, you only care about complaining, but you can't produce any evidence that it wasn't done by your Cao family, so how can I trust you!" Si Kongyue was annoyed by Cao Guichun's quarrel, kicked him away forcefully, and was about to speak, Suddenly I heard Ning Yuan say again: "Your Highness calm down, I don't know if Your Highness is willing to listen to the villain."

Sikong Yue said with a gloomy face, "Say it."

"The villain thinks that Governor Cao may indeed have been framed by others. Your Highness is wise, and I hope to see clearly." Ning Yuan paused, and seeing that Sikong Yue didn't interrupt him, he continued: "According to the humble opinion of the villain, Cao No matter how courageous the governor is, he should not show his disrespect to the heavenly family in such a stupid way in front of your majesty on such an occasion. From the motive point of view, it is very difficult to stand up to scrutiny. If you dare to ask Your Highness, Cao Dudu has been an official in Jiangzhou for many years, and he is also very respectful to His Highness. Dare to ask Your Highness, have you ever noticed that Cao Dudu has the slightest bit of disrespect? Do you want to?"

Si Kongyue didn't speak, but his face softened a lot. Indeed, Cao Guichun is very happy and loves to flatter, but because of this, he is very timid, not to mention disobedient to the royal family, even to the superior Jianghuai Governor, he will definitely nod and bow respectfully , I am afraid that something will go wrong.

With such a personality, Si Kongyue really didn't believe that he was plotting rebellion.

"Also, just look at the carving of the fifth claw on the bow of the boat. Everyone must have seen it. The fifth claw was obviously added after the whole boat was formed. It is not only concealed, but also integrated with the other four claws. It's not coordinated, it's obviously made for the purpose of framing, may I ask Dudu Cao, after the dragon boat is finished, has any suspicious person come into close contact with it?"

"This..." Cao Guichun was dumbfounded, and murmured: "After the dragon boats are finished, they are put in the warehouse, and no one is sent to guard them deliberately. Everyone can get close to them..." Thinking of this, Cao Guichun shuddered. Since everyone can get close, doesn't that mean that there is no hope of catching the person who framed him!

"Your Highness, you have also heard that if someone has the intention to trap Governor Cao into injustice, there are a lot of opportunities to take advantage of. There are many doubts about this matter. Please be careful, Your Highness, and don't let it go because of temporary anger. It's good for Zhongliang to be wronged." After Ning Yuan finished speaking, he kowtowed again.

Sikongyue stared at Ning Yuan fixedly, and he reminded him that although Sikongyue is the eldest son of the emperor, he does not have the right to punish officials arbitrarily. If there is a crime that needs to be punished, the corresponding crime needs to be reported to Zhongshu Province. Not only is it troublesome, but such a crime of overreach will definitely alarm the emperor. The crime of treason by a second-rank official, what the emperor thought most likely was not Cao Guichun's abominable arrogance, but his Si Kongyue's sloppy actions. If it affected the impression of him, the eldest son of the emperor, in the emperor's heart, it would really be worth the candle.

There is another thing that Sikong Yue has to consider. In the Jiangzhou Mansion, the one who has always been on fire with Cao Guichun is Wen Suhou. To make things too extreme.

Back then, Sikong Xu kicked away Wen Suhou's only grandson, and he had already offended the Lu family. If he wanted to take the opportunity to deal with Sikong Xu, he would definitely stand on the same side as Yue Concubine. The line breaks.

072 Candlelight Warm Night

Thinking of this, Si Kongyue gradually calmed down, looked at Cao Guichun who was shaking like a dustpan, and said: "Indeed, there are many doubts about this matter, but even if someone really framed this matter, it was not your Cao family who did it, you as a Patriarch, the responsibility of negligence is also unshirkable. The hall will fine you half a year's salary and give you a month to find out the matter. If after a month, you still can't find out who did the tricks on the dragon boat , then the charge of treason and usurpation must be borne by your Cao family, you can hear me clearly!"

"Yes, yes, I heard clearly. Even if Your Highness does not order, I will definitely try my best to find out the truth, and bring this guy who framed the lower official and disrespected the Tian family to justice." Hearing Sikong Yue's words He said that since he had given himself a chance to turn a big incident into a small one, the one-month incident was enough to calm down the situation, and even if he couldn't find the real culprit, he could just pick someone who was wronged to take the blame.

Cao Guichun threw himself on the ground and kowtowed, but Sikong Xu on the other side frowned and said: "Brother Huang, how can such a thing of arrogance be brought over in such a small way, if it reaches the ears of the emperor, I'm afraid..."

"Your brother, do you mean that this hall did not handle it well?" Sikong Yue squinted at Sikong Xu, "You have seen it yourself. It is very likely that Cao Dudu was framed by someone. Who is the real culprit? It can be seen that if Cao Dudu is severely punished because of such unclear things, it will not only chill the officials, but also go against the benevolent government of the father. Wouldn’t it be better to punish people justifiably?”

Sikong Xu looked at Sikong Yue, and asked tentatively just now, he already understood what kind of wishful thinking he was planning, he must be relying on the relationship between Cao Guichun and Wen Suhou, and finally huddled together to deal with him .But he didn't show it on his face, but still pretended to be angry, as if he was only angry because of Cao Guichun's arrogance.

It was a good dragon boat competition, but it turned out like this, not only Cao Guichun, but also Ning Ruhai, who was standing on the side, was also terrified. After Cao Guichun testified that the bow of the boat was changed from his Ning family, he was so frightened. His heart almost jumped out of his chest, but fortunately, Ning Yuan said decisively that it was appropriate to retreat, not only avoiding a disaster in the family, but also selling a favor to Cao Guichun, which really turned danger into luck.

As for Ning Xiang, from the beginning, he also stood aside with a pale face. Although the whole incident seemed to have nothing to do with him, he knew very well in his heart that he had sent someone on the dragon boat with the dragon head. He has tampered with it, but he intended to make the boat prepared by Ning Yuan wait for the end, so he only secretly damaged the rudder of the dragon boat, but he never thought about changing the "Jiao" into a "Dragon", even if it was given to him. Even if he had the guts, he probably wouldn't dare to do this, otherwise, once the matter was exposed, it would be a felony of near-death.

So he was always afraid that once the matter was found out on him, even if he had ten mouths, he might not be able to explain it clearly. Fortunately, the matter has been blurred now.

Ning Yuan stood up from the ground, glanced at Ning Xiang's expression, and there was a sneer at the corner of his mouth, are you scared now? It's a pity, when you go back, you will still be scared.

Wang Hu and a group of oarsmen won a hundred taels of gold, but they didn't return to the barracks immediately after the game ended. They still got Ning Ruhai's permission, and a group of elders rushed to buy wine and meat, preparing to make a big show in the garrison camp at night. At the banquet of wine and meat, Ning Yuan and Huyan Yuanchen were also invited to attend. Ning Yuan refused on the grounds that he wanted to go home to study. Unexpectedly, Huyan Yuanchen also declined. Ning Yuan is not very old, so Wang Hu can let him go. It's just that Huyan Yuanchen had no reason to let him go. Seeing that people didn't want to go, Wang Hu was not polite to him. He surrounded the people with a group of soldiers, picked them up and left. The scene made people dumbfounded.

But today Ningfu's dragon boat can win the leader, in addition to Ning Xiang's "credit", Wang Hu led the group of rowers to train hard and the subtlety of Huyan Yuanchen's helm is also the key. Huyan Yuanchen once said that Daxia Shaohechuan, Therefore, he was very new to Da Zhou's boats, but what surprised Ning Yuan was that, judging from his performance on the field, Huyan Yuanchen's steering skills were not only proficient, but could even be described as a master of fire. People who come from a country with few rivers and rivers and are not familiar with boats, if he did not lie to himself, it should be that he has really devoted himself to studying the way of boats during these years in Dazhou.

Ning Ruhai and Cao Guichun are officials in the same place, and if something like that happened to the Cao family, Ning Ruhai, in order to avoid attracting gossip, even if his own family won the leader of this year, he was ashamed to throw a big banquet and invite guests to celebrate. A family dinner can be arranged behind closed doors.Ning Ruhai obviously understood that most of today's result was due to Ning Yuan's credit, so he not only gave him the leader's bounty, but also allowed Tang and Ning Xin'er to attend the family banquet as an exception. It's not a good taste.

Especially when the family banquet was in the middle, the butler came in to report that Cao's mansion had sent a lot of gifts, and he named the gift as a gift for Ning Yuan, thanking him for taking the initiative to stand up for Cao in front of Sikong Yue today. In addition, Cao Guichun also apologized for wronging the Ning family. Ning Yuan borrowed flowers to present Buddha with those gifts on the spot. He also received a piece of gold leaf. Ning Xiang looked at the piece of gold leaf, thinking that he spent so much time thinking about Ning Yuan, not only did nothing happen at all, but made him even more proud. After eating, he pretended not to feel well, and left the table with Liu Shi early.

Ning Xiang's departure did not attract many people's attention, only Yan Shi, looking at his back, shook his head slightly.

After the meal, Yan returned to Ruining Courtyard, sat in front of the dressing table and took off her jewelry, Xu's mother stood behind her and combed her hair, Yan's jewelry was half taken, suddenly sighed, her right hand clenched into a fist lightly Put it on the table.

"Ma'am, let's relax a bit." Xu's mother said softly: "This servant realized early on that the second young master is an idiot who cannot be supported. It is really a waste of Madam's efforts to lift him up."

"I thought he was a bit smart, but he turned out to be so stupid. A great opportunity can make this happen." Yan sighed again, "But what happened today is really strange. The boat head was changed to Cao's house for no reason. It’s all about diverting the water to the east, but I always feel that the matter of the four-clawed dragon changing into a five-clawed dragon has something to do with Ning Yuan.”

Xu's mother said: "The third young master is just a doll. He is indeed a bit clever, but it is absolutely impossible for him to have the guts to get involved with the arrogance. It should be done by the enemies of the Cao family. The servants will look at it, maybe It's just a coincidence that Zhou's head was changed to Cao's house, the third young master is just lucky."

"You should also be able to see whether he is really smart or lucky. Seeing what happened to Hexinyuan these days, we even helped Liu Huiyi in secret last time when Ning Pinger was in the seventh place, but it turned out What about it?" Mrs. Yan squinted at Xu's mother: "Don't underestimate that kid, I always thought he was incompetent and stupid, but I was wrong. In any case, Ning Yuan took advantage of today's matter , You saw it just now, even the Cao family sent someone to thank him, I'm afraid it won't be long before the status of that kid in the master's heart will surpass Ning Xiang's."

"Who does the master value and who doesn't, but it's a matter between the two bastards. They fought back and forth, but they couldn't compete with the young master. Madam planned well. Just find a chance to remove this unwanted chess piece from the chessboard. "

"Yeah, since some chess pieces are useless, it's time to remove them. If I can't eat other chess pieces for me, I deserve to be eaten by other chess pieces." Yan sneered, "Want To clean the chessboard, it is easiest to clean up when there is only one piece left on the entire chessboard." After she finished speaking, she wiped her temples with osmanthus oil and asked, "Is the ginseng soup for the master ready?" ."

Xu's mother hugged her body, "It's already ready, it's warming up in the small kitchen."

Yan nodded, "Well, you can accompany me to send it to the master."

In the Zhuxuan Hall, the Bai sisters had already prepared hot water, and Ning Yuan took a bath very comfortably. Taking advantage of the bright moon tonight, he leaned against the door to read a book under the moonlight and the light of the lantern, while drying his hair .

Bai Tan brought a bowl of lotus leaf soup to soothe the nerves before going to bed, looked around Ning Yuan, and said doubtfully: "Where is Zhou Shi, shouldn't he be on duty for the young master today?"

"I asked Zhou Shi to guard the gate of the mansion. If we are lucky, he can catch a 'surprise' and come back to us tomorrow morning." Ning Yuan turned a page in the book, and said something like a trick to let Bai Tan If he didn't understand, he said again: "It doesn't matter if no one is on duty at night. I've never been so particular about it. Go to bed early after you finish your work. If Zhou Shi's work is done well, I'm afraid there will be trouble tomorrow. Let’s get up early to watch the show.”

"Watching a play?" Bai Tan was stunned for a moment, remembering that whenever the young master said he wanted to "watch a play", there would be a lot of commotion in the house in all likelihood, so he smiled knowingly: "Understood, I will tell the servants Rest well tonight, and wait for the young master's order tomorrow."

Ning Yuan nodded, turned another page of the book, picked up the lotus leaf soup, and just took a sip when he heard the sound of swaying footsteps coming from the gate of the courtyard. Zhou Shi, who was on a mission, walked in with Yan Fei, one on the left and one on the right, carrying a young man who couldn't stand still.

The young man was obviously very drunk, his head was buried low, his legs were weak, he was almost being dragged away, Ning Yuan immediately got up to meet him, and when he took a closer look, it was indeed Huyan Yuanchen.

"What's going on here, how did you get so drunk?" No wonder he wasn't surprised, but he heard Jing Yi said that Huyan Yuanchen is very good at drinking, even with the most powerful burning knife, he can still drink a thousand cups.

"I was guarding at the gate of the mansion according to the young master's order, but guard Yan brought Brother Huyan over. Seeing that Brother Huyan was not in good condition, I quickly brought them in through the side door." Zhou Shi explained.

"Mr. Ning, it's windy at night, let's help the young master in first before talking." Yan Fei was eager to protect the master, and didn't show much courtesy to Ning Yuan. Although Ning Yuan was suspicious, he still directed them to move Huyan Yuanchen away. Enter the room and put him on the bed.

Huyan Yuanchen smelled of alcohol, closed his eyes and frowned unconsciously, his face was also dark red, Ning Yuan saw that something was wrong, raised his hand to touch his face, then pressed his forehead, his delicate eyebrows frowned immediately Getting up, he turned his head and said to Yan Fei who was standing there: "Why is it so hot, could it be because of the wind and cold?"

"I'm afraid it's more serious than the wind and cold, otherwise I wouldn't bother Mr. Ning." Yan Fei was obviously very anxious, "To tell the truth, Mr. Ning, the young master actually has internal injuries in his body. It wasn't a big problem at first. Just adjust your breath a few times." He was fine in the next day, but since these days, he has wrestled with Commander Wang and practiced dragon boats with them, and his internal injuries have been dragging on. Today, during the dragon boat competition, his clothes were probably wet by the water , the wind blew, and at night he was taken to the barracks by Commander Wang and they drank a lot of wine. As a result, not only did he have symptoms of wind and cold, but his internal injuries suddenly became severe. The young master was not drunk, but passed out! "

"He has internal injuries? Why didn't he mention it to me?" Ning Yuan's tone was full of surprise.

"Because the young master said that he was afraid that Mr. Ning would feel guilty if you found out." Yan Fei said here, his tone a little embarrassed, "That day when the young master accompanied the young master to the military camp for the first time, he took over the iron ring from Vice Commander Wang with his bare hands. Hammer, he suffered an internal injury at that time, but he kept pressing it with his internal strength and didn’t tell the young master.” After a pause, Yan Fei continued: “Actually, there’s really nothing I can do to trouble Mr. Ning at such a late hour. Those who were temporarily summoned to Jiangzhou by the young master were not familiar with this place, so they went to the doctor rashly, and their internal strength was too low to heal the young master's internal injuries. The subordinate once heard the young master mention Mr. Ning's internal strength by chance Yes, and the young master often came to look for Mr. Ning, and thought he valued Mr. Ning, so he brought the young master here on his own initiative. If it is inconvenient for Mr. Ning..."

"You have done a good job. This situation really cannot be delayed. It will be troublesome if the wind and cold turn into tuberculosis if it continues. Such a big person can't take care of himself, and he doesn't heal internal injuries in time. Could it be because of his own body?" If you are strong, you will be immune to all diseases." Ning Yuan didn't know whether he was angry or anxious, he just frowned and complained, then sat on the edge of the bed, took Huyan Yuanchen's hand to check his pulse.

The people in the room, whether it was Zhou Shi, Bai Tan, or Yan Fei, all looked at this scene in amazement. They didn't know that Ning Yuan could still diagnose pulse, and he seemed to be quite knowledgeable in medicine.

Ning Yuan checked Huyan Yuanchen's pulse carefully, and his brows became tighter the more he probed. After a while, he got up and went to the table, took a pen and wrote down the names of several herbs on a piece of paper, and handed the prescription to Zhou Shi, "you're walking fast, go to the nearest pharmacy to grab these herbs immediately, remember to be quiet, don't disturb anyone." Then he said to Bai Tan: "You go to the kitchen to prepare immediately, and fry the medicine as soon as it comes. Come on." Looking at Yan Fei finally, "You come to protect me, I want to heal his wounds."

The people in the house took orders one after another, and Yan Fei obediently stood guard at the door of the room so that no one would disturb Ning Yuan's healing of his young master.Ning Yuan helped Huyan Yuanchen up. This man looked not fat at all, but unexpectedly he was very heavy. Ning Yuan spent a lot of effort to manipulate his body into a posture with five hearts in the sky. Then she sat cross-legged behind him, put her palms against the two big points on his back, stimulated her true energy, and began to sort out the internal injuries for him.

The situation is exactly the same as what Yan Fei said, Huyan Yuanchen's internal injury is actually not serious, but because of the wind and cold, coupled with drinking a lot of alcohol, it seems like adding fuel to the fire, abruptly urging the small problem into a serious condition. There is a serious problem, no wonder he can be tossed into the current unconscious appearance.

Healing people's injuries is an extremely labor-intensive job. Ning Yuan's head gradually soaked in a thin layer of sweat, and the clean nightgown he just put on after taking a shower was also wet with sweat and stuck to his back. As for Hu Yanyuan Chen, was also sweating profusely, but the gloomy and dark red complexion on his face had gradually turned bright red, and his eyebrows moved slightly, but he still didn't open his eyes, as if he was still awake.

About half an hour later, when he felt that Huyan Yuanchen's internal injuries were almost treated, Ning Yuan stopped his work and adjusted his breath. He was exhausted and sat there panting.Bai Tan seemed to know that Ning Yuan was done, he pushed the door open in time and came in, holding a bowl of steaming soup in his hand, "Master, the medicine is ready."

"Well, go to the kitchen and boil some water." Ning Yuan took the medicine bowl, signaled Bai Tan to go out, then helped Huyan Yuanchen to lean against him, put his arms around his broad shoulders, and put the medicine in his mouth first After testing the temperature and making sure it wasn't hot, he put the porcelain bowl to Huyan Yuanchen's mouth, trying to feed him the medicine.

It's a pity that Huyan Yuanchen seemed to be in a deep coma, the medicine couldn't be swallowed at all, it just flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

This can be troublesome.Ning Yuan frowned, the medicine should be fed earlier, he can't wait for someone to wake up before taking the medicine, he thought for a moment, then put Huyan Yuanchen flat again, looked at his tightly pursed thin lips, and then looked at him again. Looking at the decoction in his hand, his expression became a little hesitant.

"Why worry so much, Hu Yan is not a woman, really hypocritical." After a while, Ning Yuan seemed to have figured out something, shook his head in self-deprecating, raised his head, took a sip of the medicine, and then bent down, using his own His mouth touched Huyan Yuanchen's lips.

Huyan Yuanchen's facial features looked stern and heroic, but his lips were soft. The moment the two touched each other, Ning Yuan froze for no reason. Except for Sikong Xu, he had never kissed anyone before, but that was already in his previous life. Now, the matter is urgent now, Ning Yuan quickly regained his composure, with a slight force on the tip of his tongue, he pushed open Huyan Yuanchen's jaw, and passed all the medicine in his mouth into the other's mouth.

This trick was obviously quite effective. Seeing Huyan Yuanchen's throat move slightly, the decoction was easily swallowed by him.

Ning Yuan drew a gourd in the same way, mouthful after mouthful, divided into several times and finished feeding the whole bowl of soup, and then took a towel to wipe away the traces of the medicine left on the corner of his mouth.After finishing all this, Bai Tan came in again with a basin of hot water, and said: "The guard of Mr. Huyan has been arranged to rest in the wing room, the young master should also go to rest, and leave it to the servants to guard here. "

"No." Ning Yuan wiped Huyan Yuanchen's face with a hot towel, and then wiped himself, "He suffered an internal injury, so it's hard to guarantee that something will happen again in the middle of the night, you don't know internal strength, it's me here Come and watch, that's right." After Ning Yuan finished speaking, he looked down at the sticky nightgown on his body, "If there is still hot water in the kitchen, then set up the tub again. Take a shower."

"Your maidservant, go get ready now." Bai Tan gave another blessing.

Because Huyan Yuanchen had been unconscious on the bed, Ning Yuan did not avoid suspicion. After taking a bath, he put on a clean nightgown, then sat by the bed and checked Huyan Yuanchen's pulse again to make sure After his pulse condition improved, he picked up the book he had put down after reading halfway, and continued to dry his hair while reading.

Perhaps after tossing and tossing for so long, he was really tired, and before reading a few pages, he leaned against the head of the bed and fell asleep drowsily.

The light of candles flickered in the room, and in such a quiet night, only two interlaced breaths could be heard in the air.Sensing that Ning Yuan's breath gradually changed from short to gentle and long, Huyan Yuanchen, who was lying on the bed and should be in a coma, slowly opened his closed eyes at this time.

He lay there on his back, staring at the azure bed curtain above his head for a while, then sat up gently, raised his hand to caress his lips with a strange expression, and turned his head to look at the sleeping man leaning against the edge of the bed. Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan was still holding a half-read book in his hand, and his nightgown was not tied very well, it was a little loose, and a large white and delicate chest could be seen through the gaps in the clothes. The crystal water drops playfully stay on it, flickering against the candlelight.

Huyan Yuanchen realized that it was impolite to stare at a young man's chest, and immediately raised his head to look at Ning Yuan's face. Ning Yuan's cheek was slightly tilted in his direction, with a serene and quiet expression, half wet His long hair poked down softly, covering half of his face.

"On weekdays, I always like to put on a stern, old-fashioned look, but now it's a completely different look when I'm asleep." Huyan Yuanchen whispered to himself, his eyes suddenly fell on Ning Yuan's lips, Ning Yuan The color of the lips was light, and a thin slit was opened due to the relationship between sleeping, exuding bursts of warm luster.

Huyan Yuanchen's expression was stagnant, and he couldn't help touching his lips again. After a while, he shook his head and smiled wryly, "If you fall asleep in this position, you will have a backache when you wake up tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand, Supporting Ning Yuan's head with one hand and wrapping his shoulders with the other, he moved his body into the bed, and gently laid Ning Yuan flat on his side. Seeing that his hair was wet and cold, Huyan Yuanchen touched He touched his chest and felt that it was still warm, so he let Ning Yuan's side face gently rest on his chest.Ning Yuan's gentle exhalation brushed his neck very rhythmically, he collected himself, pulled the thin quilt aside to cover the two of them, then closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

073 Match Match

Ning Yuan had a dream. He dreamed that he was lying on a soft and fragrant grassland, with a huge and handsome wolf nestled beside him. He rested his head on the wolf's silky fur, feeling the warmth of the wolf's body, and felt very comfortable. He was unwilling to move his body. The sun was rising at this time, and the light was a bit dazzling. The wolf stuck out its tongue and licked his face, which made him itchy. He couldn't help stretching out his hand to scratch his face a few times, and open one's eyes.

As his eyes changed from misty to clear, the grassland, wolf, and sun disappeared. He found himself wrapped in a quilt, lying peacefully on the bed in the room. The room was quiet and there was no one there.

He sat up, loosened his neck and shoulders, looked at the sky-blue bed curtain above his head, and finally felt as if he had forgotten something, and he remembered it after a while. By the way, he should have been guarding Huyan Yuanchen last night. , how come I also fell asleep.

Thinking of Huyan Yuanchen, Ning Yuan hurriedly lowered his eyes, only to find that he was alone on the bed.

"Strange, is that guy already up?" Ning Yuan was thinking, Bai Tan came in with a basin of hot water, saw Ning Yuan sitting there, and hurriedly said: "Young master woke up, come and wash up quickly, Zhou Shi said, Young Master, he has already caught the mouse you asked to catch, and he is waiting outside."

"Have you caught it already?" Ning Yuan smiled and nodded, and asked again: "By the way, where did Prince Huyan go?"

"Young Master doesn't know, Your Highness left early." Bai Tan obviously knew Huyan Yuanchen's whereabouts very well, "Your Highness knew that Young Master was taking care of him last night, and originally wanted to wait for Young Master to wake up and thank him before leaving, but it seems that someone I sent him Fei Ge something, after he read it, he just asked me to send a message to the young master, saying that I have to leave first, and I will find another time to come back to thank the young master."

"What can happen if you are surprised." Ning Yuan shook his head and rubbed between his brows. Bai Tan hurried forward with water and helped Ning Yuan rinse his mouth and face. After washing up, Ning Yuan simply drank some porridge , and immediately brought Bai Tan from the bedroom to the main hall, where Zhou Shi was standing there with his back straight, and kneeling beside him was a thin man with a sack on his head. Sleepy, knelt there and wailed in a low voice.

Ning Yuan sat down on the main guard, took the tea offered by Bai Tan, and said softly, "Is this the mouse?"

"According to the young master's instructions, I watched outside the mansion all night yesterday, and I really caught this guy at dawn." Zhou Shi nodded, and lifted the sack off the man's head, "He has been in the mansion all this time. He was sneaky outside, running around the front door and side door, and his movements were very fast, if I hadn't been prepared, I would have almost missed him."

"Isn't this guy's nickname outside 'Flying Squirrel'? How could he be so bad at being able to get the lightness skills on the table among a group of gangsters?" Ning Yuan squinted his eyes and looked at the guy's face, "Sure enough As the name suggests, he has a cunning look."

"Young...young master...you caught the little one, what you did, why..." Flying Squirrel obviously didn't understand the current situation, he had been wandering in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and had done a lot of petty theft, But it was the first time to be caught, especially the strong young man beside him who was holding him was so strong that he almost broke his arm when he stretched out his hand, almost like an eagle carrying a chick was carried here.

"What you know well, do you want me to repeat it for you?" Ning Yuan put the teacup on the small table beside him, with an unfathomable expression, suddenly said sharply: "Say , Why are you sneaking around outside our Menning Mansion, but what kind of bad idea are you planning? If there is half a sentence that is not true, you will be sent to the government immediately to be imprisoned!"

"Go, go to prison? Don't you, young master, you are wronged! You are wronged!" When Fei Shu heard the word "go to prison", he immediately kowtowed in fright, "You little one is just here to collect debts! It's because you attached The young master on the Internet owes the villain money, and the villain..."

"Full of nonsense!" Ning Yuan snorted coldly, "My young master of the Ning family, is it possible that I still have no money to spend, so I want to borrow money from crazy people like you!"

"Master, the little one is telling the truth!" Momonga became anxious, "It's not asking for a loan from the young one, but, it's..."

"But what?"

Flying Squirrel gritted his teeth, thinking that there would be no good end to being caught now, so he bit the bullet and said, "Because, because the attached young master asked the young one to do something, he promised to give the young one 100 taels at the beginning. Silver, 50 taels of deposit, and 50 taels of final payment after the matter is completed, but now that the matter is completed, I haven't received the remaining 50 taels, so I came here..."

"Oh? So that's what happened." Ning Yuan deliberately prolonged his voice, "Which young master asked you to do something?"

"Yes... yes..." Fei Shu kept looking up at Ning Yuan, as if he was trying to figure out whether he should say it or not, but Ning Yuan didn't want to talk nonsense with him, and said coldly, "Forget it, let me know what happened first." I don’t want to hear it either, you’d better keep your mouth open and explain it to your interrogator.”

Baimei walked in from the outside quickly, and said with a blessing, "Master, Miss Mo'er sent someone to pass the message, saying that the master and the others have been invited to the Shou'an Hall."

"Yeah." Ning Yuan nodded and glanced at Zhou Shi, "Take this guy and follow me."

In Shou'an Hall, the whole family was greeting Shen Shi good morning. Because Ning Mo'er brought a lot of rose glutinous rice balls made by herself, everyone stayed and had breakfast with Shen Shi. After setting the table, Ning Yuan arrived, and he bowed respectfully to Mrs. Shen, "Grandson pays homage to ancestors.
