bastard returns

She had to put on thick powder to cover it before going out. The afternoon sun was very glaring, and she was sweating profusely. It mixed with the thick powder on her face and made a mess, making her look very embarrassed.

The emperor went up to the high platform, first received the worship of all the ministers, and then the eunuch sent three long-growth yellow incense, and began the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

At this time, the periphery of the pier was already surrounded by spectators on the third and third floors, but they were blocked by a ring of imperial guards, but all of them stretched their necks to look in, as if they couldn't see the emperor. It is also good to see a few high-ranking officials and dignitaries. At this moment, an imperial guard who was blocking people seemed to have accidentally exposed an empty space, making a man wearing this colorful dress, with a big belly and a body full of makeup. The angry masked girl broke through the encirclement and plunged into the crowd of officials.

The masked girl was familiar with the road, and quickly locked onto a tall man standing there with her head bowed. Without thinking, she rushed towards him, hugged the man's legs and said, "Master! Don't abandon our mother and son, Mr.! You are so cruel and heartless, how will I live with this unborn child!"

Han Tao was taken aback by the woman who popped out suddenly, and forgot to react for a moment, because he was standing very far away, and the officials in the distance and the emperor on the altar didn't notice it at all, but it happened suddenly The scene still attracted the attention of several officials around.

Seeing this, the woman straightened her stomach, exposing her round belly to everyone's eyelids, and shouted at the same time: "Sir, you said you are in love with me, and you want to replace me?" Redeem me, marry me back in a fair manner, now I am pregnant with your child, how can you not want us, how can you abandon us!"

Han Tao looked at the woman who was crying and crying at his feet in surprise, and felt extremely absurd for a moment. Not only was the woman dressed in vulgar clothes, her face was covered with heavy makeup, and half of her face was covered with gauze, so she couldn't see her face clearly at all. , The imperial guard who accidentally let the woman in before also ran over in a hurry at this time. Seeing that the woman was hugging the commander's leg and throwing a splash, he was shocked, stepped forward and dragged her out again.

From the woman's sudden appearance to her disappearance, it took only two or three breaths. In the corner of this huge court meeting, even a splash of water disappeared. In such a short period of time, Han Tao patronized Surprised, she didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but Ning Rui'er, who stayed among the women, was dumbfounded.

Because they are husband and wife, according to the rules, Ning Ruier's position is not far from Han Tao, so she naturally had a panoramic view of this dramatic scene, and couldn't show any other expression except stunned for a while.

That woman was dressed so fancy and with heavy makeup, she was not a decent woman at first glance, maybe she was a prostitute from a brothel, a pregnant prostitute hugged her husband's leg, crying and calling her Don't abandon them, Mr. Han, could it be that Han Tao actually betrayed him and made a secret affair with a brothel girl outside?

When Han Tao came back to his senses, the figure of the woman had long since disappeared, and there were indeed a few officials around who had watched the scene laugh secretly, among them, the deputy commander of the Xiaoqi Battalion standing beside him even gave him a thumbs up .After all, for these officials, it is very common for Han Tao to have a girlfriend in the brothel when they are not carrying their family members to find flowers and ask Liu, but it makes them pregnant, and they risk alarming the holy car The risk of running here is embarrassing, but not everyone can do it.

Han Tao was already ashamed because of the matter of the court uniform, and there was an inexplicably extra good friend about it. He didn't explain it to the people around him, and he didn't explain it. It was really embarrassing, but this scene can be laughed off by the officials. It's not that simple to put it in the crowd of women. Ning Rui'er seems to be choked by someone. Over the years, he has calculated everything. In order to stabilize his status as the wife, he punished many who tried to get close to Han Tao. Women, you can do everything possible to prevent the inside of the house, but you don't want to miss the wild flowers and weeds outside!

"Oh, Commander Han is really too, how could he do such a thing, in public, let Mrs. Han deal with herself."

"Others say that Commander Han loves his wife as much as his life, Mrs. Han can't bear children, and he doesn't even take a concubine. I thought he was really a good man, but it turned out to be just a rumor."

"Actually, I can understand Commander Han. There are three types of unfilial piety. Having no offspring is the greatest. If his wife can't give birth, he can't just hang himself on a tree with a crooked neck like this."

"Look at the expression on Mrs. Han's face. Oh, it's wonderful. Poor Mrs. Han, that woman has such a big belly. I don't know what she looks like. I'm afraid there will be trouble after I go back."

The discussions of the women around entered Ning Rui'er's ears like a heart, which made her want to tear her eyes apart. She wished she could go up to Han Tao and ask him for clarification. The more it burned, the more ferocious the look in Han Tao's eyes.

Offering sacrifices to the gods, dragon boat racing, and watching a fire dance meeting, the court meeting lasted until the evening and finally came to an end.After the award of the Bazhou Governor, the chief leader of the Dragon Boat Competition, the Emperor Shengjia drove back to the palace and issued the imperial edict. All the officials are quite tired today, so they don't have to go back to the palace with the Shengjia, they went back to their homes on the spot , Each finds his own mother.

Ning Ruhai specially came from Jiangzhou to reward the dragon boat rowers. Even though they did not win the rankings during this trip, they still held a banquet at a very famous restaurant in Huajing at their own expense. The Ning family was by the side. Going back together with Han Tao and Ning Rui'er, after they had eaten and drank enough, they walked back home in the dark. Just as they walked to the main entrance of the Commander's Mansion, they happened to see Han Tao with a dark face, angrily walking away. He rushed out from the door, and when he saw Ning Ruhai and the others, he didn't even stop, and walked into the street with big strides.

Ning Ruhai was already a little drunk, and didn't care about it, but Yan's eyes twitched, with an inexplicable premonition, and turned to look at Ning Yuan, but what he saw was Ning Yuan's lowered eyebrows were pleasing to the eye She rolled her eyes suspiciously, but she didn't speak after all.

That night, it was already very late. Ning Yuan was sleeping soundly, but was suddenly awakened by the noise outside. He rubbed his eyes and sat up. Zhou Shi, who had been sitting at the end of the bed on duty all night, also got up and put on his coat for him. After lighting up the candle, Bai Tan came in, and said softly: "Something happened in the east chamber, the young master has to go and have a look."

"East chamber?" Ning Yuan rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "It's always a matter between my eldest sister and her husband. As a younger brother, I always have to go and have a look to show my concern."

Outside the master room in the East Wing, there are already many people around. Except for the servants, the Ning family is also present. Ning Yuan crossed over with light steps. Looking up, a good bedroom has been smashed to pieces. It was in disarray, fragments of vases, pens and ink books all over the floor, as if they had just been robbed.Han Tao sat aside with an extremely embarrassed face, while Ning Rui'er buried her head in Yan's arms with disheveled hair and cried non-stop.

"General, Han Tao has been favored by you, and has always regarded you as a mentor. Han Tao will never forget the friendship between mentors, but this woman who likes to tell stories so much, I must reconcile with her!" It is reconciliation, not divorce, Han Tao felt that he had already given Ning Rui'er enough face, Ning Ruhai kept frowning tightly, and when he heard Han Tao say this, he didn't reply, but stared at his daughter with stern eyes.

Han Tao was really furious. He obviously didn't recognize the girl from the brothel who appeared suddenly today, but Ning Rui'er just grasped this point and insisted on making waves in front of him, saying that he was ungrateful and wolf-hearted. He didn't listen at all, facing such a crazy woman like Ning Rui'er, Han Tao had no choice but to leave the mansion angrily, and went to find his old friend who came to Huajing after a long time. Wang Hu had a drink. To complain to Wang Hu, who knew that after drinking for three rounds, he heard even more terrible things from Wang Hu's mouth.

It turns out that my wife has never had any feelings for me, she will marry me, and the so-called is just the name of the wife of the commander of the Imperial Guard!

Wang Hu had a life-long friendship with him, how could such a brother deceive him, Han Tao was annoyed, and he drank again, a series of things happened before and after, and he remembered a lot of Ning Rui'er. The empress made him ashamed of the past, he had been sitting in the official position of the Imperial Guard Commander for a long time, and his personality was no longer as careful and honest as before. He insisted on handing over the unnecessary woman and knocking out the "wild species" that didn't exist at all. In a fit of anger, Han Tao didn't bother to explain. He pointed at Ning Rui'er's nose and said, I want to write a letter to release my wife and reconcile with her.

When Ning Rui'er heard it, it's not bad!In the years since she married, although Han Tao has treated her very well, he is absolutely well-behaved. Now he not only raises a woman outside, is pregnant with a wild child, but also reconciles with her. There is no such reason in the world. !For a while, he was crying and screaming in the room, and kept throwing things. The commotion was so loud that it attracted everyone.

101 Subtlety

"Mother, you have to make the decision for me! He not only has a family outside, but also has to reconcile with me. This day can't be passed!" Ning Rui'er threw herself into Yan's arms and cried like hell, but Yan's But her face was full of embarrassment, although she didn't say anything, she scolded Ning Rui'er for such stupid behavior in her heart.

Today's man, who doesn't have three wives and four concubines, especially with an identity like Han Tao, even if he really has a friend outside, it's nothing at all. What Ning Ruier can do is just like Yan's many years ago , put on a magnanimous and virtuous look, let him take in as many rooms as he wants, so that others will praise her for understanding the general situation, and Han Tao has been guarding her at home all these years, which is already an extraordinary thing Oh, but Ning Rui'er took Han Tao's generosity for granted and made such a fuss that if the matter got out, others would not say what was wrong with Han Tao, but would only point at Ning Rui'er's backbone He called her a jealous woman, and even said that the Ning Mansion had no way of discipline and raised such a daughter.

Not only Yan Shi thought so, everyone present thought so, but Ning Ruier was still crying non-stop, as if Han Tao really owed her.

"A loving mother often loses children, this girl has developed this habit because she is used to it." Shen Shi was disturbed in her dream, thinking that something serious happened, but after seeing this posture, she only felt that her face was dull, After scolding Yan Shi, she turned her head and left, presumably going back to her room to continue sleeping.

"Big Brother-in-Law, Big Sister has always had that temper. If she has any faults, you have a lot to do, and you can take care of it. Husbands and wives will be kinder for a day, so why bother to make peace over such a trivial matter. "Ning Yuan leaned in front of Han Tao, on the surface he was persuading with a smile, but what he said was like a knife and stabbed Han Tao's heart hard. Yes, Ning Rui'er has always had this temper. Such an unwarranted thing can make a big fuss, without any regard for the face of both parties, and she has never seen her change. He used to bear it and endured it, but he is a man of eight feet, is he going to endure like this for a lifetime?

Thinking of this, he clenched his fist at Ning Ruhai decisively, "General, I know it's very bad to say this in front of you, but Ning Ruier and I really don't have much to say, let's get together Going forward is nothing more than tossing each other, although the matter of reconciliation is abrupt, but I have made up my mind, if the general wants to punish, I, Han Tao, will lead here."

"Tao'er, why are you bothering! A half-son-in-law, I have always regarded you as my own son. Every family has hard-to-recite scriptures. If there is no small quarrel between the couple, it can't be done." Hearing some people with ulterior motives fan the flames, they broke up at once!" Yan stared at Ning Yuan vaguely, then pushed Ning Rui'er into Xu's mother's arms, and leaned forward to hold Han Tao's hand Wrist said: "You are angry now, so naturally you are very angry. Go into the house and make you a cup of tea for your mother to suppress the fire. If you have anything to say, just tell your mother. If there is something wrong with Rui'er, your mother teach her a lesson for you!"

After all, Yan Shi didn't care about Han Tao's reaction, and almost pulled and pushed him into the back room. Ning Ruhai saw Ning Rui'er who was still lying on top of Xu's mother, and hated iron. Gang Di shook his head, and then scolded Ning Yuan: "You don't stand here to watch the fun, go back to sleep!"

Ning Yuan lowered his eyes, bowed and said yes.

The next morning, as soon as Ning Yuan woke up, a servant girl came to pass the message, saying that Han Tao had handed over the paperwork to the palace, and he was on leave due to illness, so they didn't have to enter the palace to attend the banquet today.

The maid didn't mention at all whether the two masters of the Commander's Mansion were separated or not, but Ning Yuan's heart was like a mirror, and there was no news after one night. It must be under the cover of trying to turn the tide, and Han Tao changed his mind when he said it. up.There is not much difference between the facts and Ning Yuan's conjecture. Last night, Yan Shi talked almost all night, his mouth was dry, and he pressed Ning Rui'er's head to make her apologize to Han Tao, so Han Tao reluctantly did not mention reconciliation. However, he obviously didn't want to go out with Ning Rui'er so soon to play the role of husband and wife harmony in front of other officials, so he postponed today's banquet.

After Ning Yuan washed up, he went to the side hall at the back of the main hall to have breakfast, but Shen Shi was the only one sitting there by the dining table full of various breakfasts. After a while, he beckoned Ning Yuan to sit next to her.

Ning Yuan saluted and sat down before asking, "Where are father and mother?"

"That virtuous mother of yours spent the whole night grinding her lips last night, she must be able to get up now." Shen snorted lightly, "Last night at dawn, your father stood there watching the excitement for a long time, and got a little dirty. Feng Han is also resting on the bed now." Speaking of this, Shen shook her head, "Your father has always been very strong, but recently he is always in poor spirits, and now he is entangled in Feng Han again. It’s been ten years since I’ve had a cold, it’s really ridiculous.”

"Father got a cold?" Ning Yuan pretended to be surprised and opened his eyes wide, "Have you invited a doctor?"

"The doctor has already come to see it, and he said it is..." When Shen said this, her old face was tense, and she didn't want to continue, she just put a fried dumpling in Ning Yuan's bowl with her own hands and said: "Hurry up!" You have always been a sensible child, so don’t learn to be as absurd as your father in the future.”

Looking at Shen's expression, Ning Yuan knew why Shen didn't go on. After all, it would be somewhat impolite to bring up "excessive indulgence and lack of health" in front of an underage grandson.

At this time, another servant girl came in, holding a bronzing invitation in her hand, and said, "Mrs. Shen, this is an invitation from Duke Jing's residence."

"If there is a post, send it to the master's house, and what to do with us outsiders." Shen looked at the maid.

"Returning to the old lady, the post is for the third young master Ning." The maid said as she presented the post to Ning Yuan. Ning Yuan picked it up and unfolded it, glanced at it, his eyes froze, and then smiled: " Grandmother, it is Jing Guogong's son who wants to invite me to visit his house."

"You have nothing to do today anyway. Since the eldest son invited you, then don't delay, pack up and go." Shen smiled and looked at Ning Yuan with even more satisfaction. Now in her eyes, the entire Ning Mansion Ning Yuan is the most promising one, knowledgeable, humble and courteous, the most important thing is that he has an extraordinary relationship with Jing Guogong's son. Ning Ruhai has always been unpopular with her, and Shen can't figure out what his son is thinking.

Ning Yuan left, but he didn't go in the direction of Duke Jing's mansion. He hired a carriage first, and then walked towards the west of the city.Compared with the prosperous east of the city, the west of Huajing City is much more open, and most of the houses are low and simple, and the people who live there are ordinary people.According to the address on the post, Ning Yuan asked the coachman to stop outside a courtyard surrounded by bluestone walls. He saw the plaque of "Proton House" hanging on the wooden door about ten feet wide, and believed that he had gone to the right place. Knock on the door.

The post sent to him, although it was indeed a greeting post from Duke Jing’s mansion, but Ning Yuan could recognize the handwriting on it, it was Huyan Yuanchen’s handwriting, remembering that Huyan Yuanchen once said that he would invite him to visit the Proton Mansion, but never thought that the Proton Mansion was in such a secluded place.

The person who opened the door was Yan Fei, as if he expected Ning Yuan to come, he respectfully stepped aside.As soon as he stepped through the door, Ning Yuan smelled a strong burnt aroma. A fire was being lit in the open space in the front yard. A simple grill was set up, and a lamb that had been roasted into a golden yellow was turning on it. Circle, Zizisheng came out from there along with the fragrance.There were people sitting on the stone benches on both sides. Jing Yi rolled up his sleeves high and stared at his head with moist mouth. Hu Yanyuanchen held the grill in one hand and a dagger in the other, and from time to time licked the mutton. Make a knife to let off excess fat and make the meat more delicious.

Ning Yuan coughed lightly, and Jing Yi noticed him coming, and immediately waved to him, "Brother Ning's timing is so good, this roasted whole lamb is about to be cooked, and Huyan's roasted food is a must, in order to wait for this meal, I didn't even eat breakfast!"

As Jing Yi's voice fell, Hu Yanyuanchen had already unloaded a well-roasted leg of lamb, and moved it very quickly with the blade in his hand, and placed it on a special stone plate, which seemed to be warmed by itself. As soon as the mutton slices were put on, there was a sizzling sound immediately, and the aroma was even stronger. Jing Yi couldn't wait to pick up a slice and stuffed it into his mouth. His eyes were so hot that tears flowed from his eyes, and he didn't forget to show his thumbs to Huyan Yuanchen.

"Your Majesty is hosting a banquet in the palace today, don't you all go?" Ning Yuan sat down on the remaining stone bench.

"Naturally, a dude like me who has no official position doesn't need to join in the fun. You might as well ask this prince His Highness this question." Chen's direction.

Huyan Yuanchen laughed after hearing this, "I have already sent the congratulatory gift to the palace. I think it's time for your majesty to have fun with the courtiers. I'm always uncomfortable as a foreigner. It's okay if I don't go." , he went to some good mutton and put it in front of Ning Yuan, Jing Yi saw it and became anxious, "That is the most tender meat on the leg of lamb, why did you give it all to Brother Ning, at least leave a piece for me ah!"

"Today, I specially came here to treat Brother Ning to the roasted lamb, so don't push yourself too hard if you get a bargain." Hu Yanyuanchen spoke to Jing Yi with no politeness at all.

"Bah, if it wasn't for that post of mine, do you think Brother Ning would come to you specially to reward you?" After Jing Yi finished speaking, he turned to Ning Yuan and said, "Brother Ning, you have seen it too, this Proton Mansion is quite remote. Well, actually Hu Yan originally had a very grand mansion, but he just couldn't get used to that kind of gorgeous place, so he directly asked the emperor for his order, sold it for cash, and then bought this mansion in the west of the city, which is shabby Except for me, there is really no one who visits on weekdays."

Huyan Yuanchen retorted: "I live alone, and I don't even have many servants. Wouldn't it be a waste to live in too big a place?"

"It doesn't matter if you are alone now, but one day when you get married, is it possible that the other girl will stay with you in this broken yard? At that time, you still want to move back to the east of the city, but you may not be able to buy it." I have come to the original house, the land price in that place is rising every day, but every inch of land is expensive." Jing Yi said a word with confidence, but Huyan Yuanchen's expression seemed to be choked by something , After a pause, he said, "Today I planned to invite Brother Ning to come and sit with me for a while, but you insisted on joining in the fun, eating my food is not counted, and you still expose my faults everywhere, Jing Yi, what are you doing?" Heart?"

"Hehe, you're still angry, don't pretend you don't know, how many girls in Beijing like you." Having said that, Jing Yi pointed at Huyan Yuanchen's face, then turned his head to Ning Yuan, "Brother Ning, don't look at me. This man has an ignorant face. There are many girls who like him in the capital. The most famous one is the daughter of the Guoziji Restaurant. Marriage proposal, if it wasn't for his identity as a proton at the front, there might have been an extra cheap daughter-in-law."

"You made me so happy, why don't you talk about the incident between you and Princess Wanyi?" Hu Yanyuanchen gave Jing Yi a hard look. I don't know if his eyes were too fierce, or the four "Princess Wanyi" The words really calmed down Jing Yi, his face froze, but he closed his mouth and stopped speaking.

Ning Yuan couldn't help laughing when he saw the two people bickering vividly in front of him.

He probably seldom laughed heartily. When he laughed for the first time, he couldn't stop it. Seeing him laughing happily, Hu Yanyuanchen pushed the plate of mutton in front of him in embarrassment. : "If you don't eat it, it won't taste good when it's cold." After a pause, he added, "Don't believe me and the son of the country offering wine to our daughter, I don't even know about it. Rumors from outside."

Ning Yuan didn't know why Huyan Yuanchen explained to himself so seriously, he just nodded and said: "You have reached the age where you can get married, if you are really a good girl, it doesn't matter if you have someone to accompany you." After finishing speaking, he ignored With a stiff face, Huyan Yuanchen moved his eyes to the mutton in front of him.

The mutton is roasted with a fragrant aroma. The most important thing is that it is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. When Ning Yuan was in Xianghe Town, he had eaten Huyan Yuanchen’s grilled fish. It was already very delicious. Unexpectedly, the taste of this mutton was even better. .

Jing Yi obviously enjoys it very much. Eating mutton alone is not enough, so he took out silver coins and asked the fast-footed Yan Fei to buy a few jars of shochu and came back. Ning Yuan pulled his face and said: "There is something I forgot to remind you. I heard my father say last night that the fourth prince gave His Majesty a luminous pearl as a gift. , It was originally two split beads, but when they are put together, they can emit light."

Ning Yuan wondered: "What kind of congratulatory gifts did the Fourth Highness send, and what does it have to do with me?"

"Giving congratulatory gifts is of course irrelevant, but there will be later." Jing Yi lowered his voice, "The Fourth Highness took advantage of His Majesty's Longyan Joy, and wrote a book, saying that the academy in the Jiangzhou Palace has been cleaned up all year round. , messy, and those illiterate palace servants can’t help, and he can’t clean it up by himself, so he wants to send a learned man from the official family to help.”

When Ning Yuan heard this, his eyes moved, and he put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Does he want me to go?"

"That's why I remind you first, how long-term you are, it's better for you to have less contact with the Fourth Highness." Jing Yi said: "Others say that the Fourth Highness is not liked by the emperor, this is true, but he is quite Means and ability, this is also a fact, otherwise a prince like him would have become a stepping stone for others, these are aside, the Fourth Highness is quite masculine, it is already an unspoken secret, he It’s definitely not as simple as tidying up an academy.”

Ning Yuan lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then smiled again: "It's okay, if that's the case, I will be careful."

"Don't take it seriously." Seeing Ning Yuan's relaxed appearance, Jing Yi was a little impatient, "Think about it, if you really go, the Fourth Highness is so beastly, and wants to force your bow on your overlord, then But what to do."

"Brother Jing, you're drunk." Ning Yuan pushed Jing Yi's head away a little, and said to Huyan Yuanchen, "Do you have a room here for him to rest?"

Huyan Yuanchen nodded, let Yan Fei support Jing Yi and left, Jing Yi wobbled and let Yan Fei support him, he still turned his head and called Ning Yuan "Don't go", Ning Yuan picked up his glass and thought He took a sip, paused, and put it down again.

"Jing Yi is never a nonsense person. You really need to be careful about what he said." Only Ning Yuan and Hu Yan Yuanchen were left at the table. Yuan had unrealistic thoughts, he frowned slightly, and his voice was somewhat eager.

"It's useless for me to have a long-term mind on this matter, and you have heard that the Fourth Highness is going to ask the emperor for an order. If the emperor really makes an order, can I still resist the order?" Ning Yuan said: "But don't worry, when things really come true At that point, no matter how bad it is, it is nothing more than letting His Royal Highness sleep for a night, and when it is really important to save his life, he just closes his eyes and just lies there and lets him manipulate him."

"You..." Huyan Yuanchen's eyes widened, "You've always been a very thoughtful person, when did you become so negative!"

"No matter how much you have an idea, you must also know how to judge the situation. Physical pain is not as important as your own life." Ning Yuan seemed to be quite relaxed in his words, "There is a commonality in the thoughts of people like the Fourth Highness. Once they arrive, they will want to possess it more and more, and when they have it for themselves, they will immediately abandon it like a pair of shoes. In this case, I will let him succeed for once, so long as he won't bother him in the future For me, any pain and humiliation are only temporary, not to mention that I am still a broken sleeve."

"No!" Huyan Yuanchen drank without thinking, and drank so hard that he couldn't help holding Ning Yuan's wrist. Ning Yuan frowned, Hu Yan Seeing his frown, Yuan Chen realized that he had lost his composure, and immediately let go, but said without any compromise in his tone: "This matter will definitely not work, even if you want to compromise, I will find a way for you, and you can't let those traitors succeed."

Ning Yuan looked at him curiously, "Men are not as chaste as women. I'm not in a hurry. Why are you so worried about me?"

"I..." Huyan Yuanchen couldn't answer for a moment, hissing in his throat, looking at Ning Yuan's delicate face, thinking that Sikong Xu had such nasty fantasies about the owner of this face, he Then get angry.

"It's more disgraceful for a man to be defiled than for a woman's infidelity, do you know that!" He thumped the stone table hard with his fist, and with a bang, the dishes bounced, "You always say Shi Ke You can't be humiliated, at least you should have some integrity!"

Ning Yuan was overwhelmed by Huyan Yuanchen's aura, unable to speak for a while, Huyan Yuanchen seemed to realize that his reaction was too much, moved the corners of his mouth, took the wine jar next to him and raised his head, and took a big mouthful. It didn't matter that they were all wet with wine, and left the table, leaving Ning Yuan to sit there in a daze, saying "I'll go wash my face".

****

Ning Rui'er was sitting on the side of the beauty, her clothes and hair bun were a little messy, but she didn't notice it, she just stared at the door fixedly, as if she was waiting for someone, and after an unknown amount of time, she finally remembered a moment outside the door. With the sound of small footsteps, a woman pushed the door in and said to Ning Rui'er: "Madam, I have sent someone to inquire about it, but..."

"But what, can't you even find such a big living person!" Ning Rui'er said angrily.

"This..." The woman hesitated for a moment before she said: "The servants spent a lot of money and asked people to ask about all the brothels in the whole city, but they all swore that no woman was out of the court yesterday. , there is a record of whether a brothel girl in the capital is out of the court, not to mention that the girl is still pregnant, it should be easy to find, but yes, but there is no..."

"Nonsense, there must be!" Ning Rui'er picked up the teacup beside her and threw it out without even thinking about it, her face turned pale for a while, "Yes, there must be, it's just hidden, yes, it must be It was hidden by that heartless thing!"

Ning Rui'er was forced to bow her head to Han Tao, but he was still unconvinced in his heart, always thinking to find out the woman who ruined the bastard and get rid of it, but she spent a lot of money and sent someone to Going out to inquire overnight, who knows the result.

In fact, it's no wonder that she couldn't find out. Everyone thought that the pregnant woman was a prostitute. I guess no one would have thought that it was just a man in disguise.

Find a brothel, find a handy boy with a decent appearance and figure, promise him silver, let him wear the clothes of a prostitute, stuff a pillow in his belly, and the most important thing is to cover his face. After the job is over, he will take off his clothes again Wash your face, who would pay attention to a young man, Ning Yuan just has such an extra mind, it's why Ning Rui'er spent so much energy and couldn't find any clues.

102 start to close the network

When Ning Yuan returned to the Commander's Mansion, the whole mansion looked gloomy and gloomy. The two masters in the mansion were at odds, and they couldn't even lift their heads when they walked with their servants.

He didn't directly go back to the house where he lived, but went to pay a visit to Mrs. Chen first, and then went to visit Ning Ruhai together with Mrs. Chen.The wind and cold in Ning Ruhai came suddenly, and the situation was quite serious. After seeing it, the doctor only said that it was caused by overwork. He would be fine after taking a few medicines and recuperating for a few days. Returning to Jiangzhou, now it seems that it is impossible to go.

Ning Yuan looked at Ning Ruhai lying on the bed drowsy with sweat profusely, and couldn't arouse any sympathy for his father, but he still wiped his body with his hands very respectfully, and then served him with medicine, making a fuss It was midnight before returning to the house.

But before leaving, Ning Yuan glanced at a pot of withered crabapple flowers on the window sill, and said lightly that since it was withered, it would be very unlucky to put it in the bedroom, so he took the initiative to hug the pot and went out.

After returning to his own room, Ning Yuan immediately handed the potted flower to Bai Tan. Bai Tan understood and prepared a charcoal basin long ago, directly broke off the flower branches and threw them into the charcoal basin. After a while, the withered flower branches were turned into ashes. Bai Tan asked Zhou Shi to dig a hole in the yard and buried all the ashes, and then it was over.

"Master, I'm a bit confused." Bai Tan made a cup of tea for Ning Yuan, "Why don't we leave Beijing and go back to Jiangzhou earlier, if the master falls ill, don't we have to continue to stay under his eyelids?" .”

"I haven't finished what I should do. It's not too bad to go back in a hurry at this time." Ning Yuan blew on the tea in his cup, "I received several big gifts a few days ago. By the way, have you prepared everything I asked you to prepare?"

"It's all good, I'll keep it here." Bai Tan took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom, "According to the young master's instructions, I boiled the medicinal materials you bought to produce juice, and finally refined them continuously, so I got this small bottle. "

"Okay, you guys go to bed earlier, no matter what you hear tonight, just pretend you didn't hear it, it's none of our business anyway." Ning Yuan held the small porcelain bottle and grinned softly.

In the third watch, it was the darkest time of night. Except for the watchman, the whole city fell into a deep sleep, because Huajing was at the foot of the emperor, and it was always peaceful. The guards, all holding the spears in their hands, dozed off against the wall.

No one noticed at all that there was a dexterous figure skimming the sky above the numerous buildings and pavilions through the night.

Ever since Ning Rui'er had a quarrel with Han Tao, Han Tao moved to the study to sleep out of sight and out of mind. Ning Yuan, dressed in night clothes, squatted lightly on the roof of Ning Rui'er's bedroom, and lifted a tile. Take a picture and carefully examine the situation in the room.

Except for a lamp on the round table in the middle of the room, and two maids sitting on the bedside on duty, the room was quiet and there was no sound.Ning Yuan took out the small porcelain bottle from his arms, pulled off the cap, carefully leaned over the bottle, aimed at the candle in the lantern on the table, and quietly dripped a drop of the liquid in the porcelain bottle.

It was very precise, the drop of liquid landed on the position of the lamp wick impartially, and with a click, the lamp sparkle exploded.
