The baby is all there, the princess is still in the routine

"Boss, there seems to be movement over there."

"What over there? Look up! Quick! Run—"

Ning Changle supported Xiao Li, but also felt something was wrong.

The lightning struck the trees, sparking flames, and the fallen leaves all over the ground were instantly ignited.The strong wind fueled the fire, and it swept across the valley, lighting up the sky in blood.

Xu Enyi's family has been engulfed by the soaring flames, and they didn't even have time to shout.

The flames were like a red cloth stained with blood, covering Ning Changle's eyes.

His eyes were bloodshot, nothing but red.

He uncontrollably recalled the fire in the Ning family, as if falling into a repeating nightmare, falling and falling.

His big rough hands covered his eyes full of fear.

"Ning Changle! Ning Changle—"

Xiao Li let out a low growl, calling Ning Changle back to his sanity.

"My life is in your hands, take me out of here."

Xiao Li seemed to know what he was afraid of, and his tone was very strong.The dark eyes stared at him firmly, saying 'you must let me live'.

Ning Changle was suddenly aroused with infinite fighting spirit. He is not the child of the past, and will not let important people die in front of him.

Ning Changle supported Xiao Li's arm, exerting his unprecedented potential, dragging Xiao Li to run down as if flying.

"This way." Xiao Li pointed in a direction, "This is the shortcut."

Don't care so much, the god of death is close at hand.The two crawled and rolled, racing against time, and found Xiao Li's horse before being engulfed in flames.

Ning Changle helped Xiao Li onto the horse, wrapped him in his arms, pushed down Xiao Li's head vigorously to prevent him from blocking his sight, and galloped the horse all the way.

Xiao Li curled up into a ball, resting his head on Ning Changle's chest, hearing the beating sound of his heart, he finally felt a little lucky to survive the catastrophe.

The fire on Mount Terminus burned for three days before it was extinguished.

During this period, Ning Changle and Xiao Li have been living in a medical clinic near the county seat.

Xu Enyi, his wife and children were burned to a mass of ashes in the fire. Ning Changle hired people to collect their ashes and bones into coffins, and buried them in a cemetery in the suburbs of the county.

Ning Changle was depressed and didn't say another word to Xiao Li.

Xiao Li also didn't intend to talk to Ning Changle.

He was bruised all over his body, his right hand was dislocated, and although the sword wound on his abdomen was not fatal, it inevitably left a deep scar.

Xiao Li had suffered more serious injuries than now.Three years ago, a Turkic arrow almost pierced his lung. Xiao Li lay in bed for a month, the wound was inflamed and festered, and the high fever nearly blinded him.

However, it was not as painful as this sword wound.

When Xiao Li's injury was almost healed, the two were speechless and went back to the palace together.

One is lifeless, the other is scarred, the two make up a pair of black and white impermanent ghosts, neither of them looks human at all.

This frightened Uncle Xu, and he asked what happened. There are still people in the world who can hurt the young prince so badly!

Xiao Li said vaguely: "I met a killer and encountered a mountain fire, so I got hurt accidentally."

Ning Changle rolled his eyelids, and went back to his bedroom without saying anything.

Xiao Li went back to the study in silence.

The awkward and awkward atmosphere between the two was obvious, Xu Bo and Qing Mu clicked their tongues a few times, secretly wondering if the prince and concubine had quarreled.

The people in the palace only thought that the princess was going to kill Xu Enyi, and the prince was afraid that the princess would be in danger, so they chased her together.

Only Jiu'an knows that Xiao Li saved the young master's life by narrowly escaping the young master this time.She vaguely guessed what happened, turned around and left the house to report to Aunt Hua that she was safe.

Xiao Li wrote a secret letter in his study and sent someone to investigate the identity of the killer.

This group of killers should set off from the capital at about the same time as them, heading for Mount Final.There must be some clues to check from the gatekeepers.

After discussing the matter, the servant came to report, and Hua Xian'er asked Xiao Li for something.

"My lord, thank you for saving Changle's life, please pay homage to the slave family."

Hua Xian'er bowed solemnly.

Xiao Li hurriedly helped him up: "Saving Changle is my duty, it should not be such a big gift."

"After I woke up, I found a suicide note left by Changle in Huaxianzhai, and a box of items that Changle wanted to be buried with. My family asked the prince to return it to Changle for me."

Hua Xian'er took out a letter and a small wooden box one foot square.

"Aunt Hua, you should return it yourself. Chang Le and I..." Xiao Li smiled bitterly, "He doesn't have me in his heart."

He had to admit defeat.In terms of being cold-blooded and ruthless, Ning Changle is far better than him.

Hua Xian'er: "My lord, please read the letter written by Changle. In the letter, he transferred the property of the Ning family to me, and Jiu'an entrusted me to take care of it, and asked me to move him and Miss back to the ancestral grave of the Ning family for burial..."

"Sure enough, I'm not there." Xiao Li's eyes were dark, and he laughed at himself coldly.

Hua Xian'er: "My lord, listen to me slowly. Master Ning left Changle with 400 million taels of silver, 100 million taels has been used in the Ning family's property, and there are 300 million taels left.

Changle asked me to hand over the 300 million taels to the prince... I don't know what agreement you have with Changle, but based on what I know about Changle, he is definitely not ruthless towards you. "

Xiao Li's mood moved slightly, and he reached out to take the letter and the wooden box.

In the letter, as Hua Xian'er said, Ning Changle was explaining his funeral.Opening the wooden box, the "relics" are a set of clothes, a painting scroll, and a household registration certificate.

The clothes are purple robes with gold threads, the ones remade from Xiao Li's regular clothes.The painting scroll is Xiao Li's painting of Ning Changle hugging a cat.The household registration is the certificate of Ning's household registration brought back from the Xu family.

Xiao Li took out the household registration certificate, folded it, and put it in his arms.

He said: "I know, I will return it to him."

After Aunt Hua left, Xiao Li went back to the sleeping hall to retrieve a box of things, together with the remains and suicide note, and entered the Yuehua Hall.

Jiu'an was guarding the door of Ning Changle's bedroom, worried.

"My lord, young master, he has been shutting himself in the bedroom and cannot come out."

"I come."

Xiao Li raised his foot and kicked open the bedroom door.

Ning Changle trembled in fright, and looked at Xiao Li in astonishment.

"Ning Changle, return all your suicide notes and relics to you."

Xiao Li slammed the things in front of him heavily, and his words were fierce, with a strong sense of provoking the master and asking for guilt.

"Didn't you say you lied to me? Didn't you say that it's none of my business? You think I'll give you 300 million taels of silver!

You are a good choice for cooperation, but you are not the only one.Isn't it easy to ask for money, I can even send troops to directly rob the wealthy gentry!Why do you think I obediently listen to you?Why do you think you stabbed me, and I still have to cover it up for you? "

"I like you, you know it."

Xiao Li pursed the corners of his chapped lips, squatted down and bent his knees, keeping his eyes level with Ning Changle's, and asked almost reverently: "So, what's your answer?"
