Many people gathered at the gate of the firewood room.

When Jiang Zhinan arrived, Ah Ning's body had already been dragged out and placed on the marble steps beside him. His appearance was so horrible that it made one's heart chill.

"Yu'an!" Seeing her coming, Jiang Chengxuan hurriedly stopped her, "I'll take care of this matter, you don't have to worry about it."

He said this sincerely, for fear that Jiang Zhinan would feel frightened when he saw the tragic state of the corpse, and it would be bad if he frightened his body.

But Jiang Zhinan acted as if he didn't hear anything, gently pushed his hand away, and continued to walk forward.

In this way, he slowly came to the side of the corpse.

There was a terrifying bloodstain on the neck of the corpse, which was deep enough to be fatal.

Not only that, but the face of the corpse had also been burned, making it impossible to see her original appearance, and even the skin on her body had been stripped off. I don't know who did it.

Jiang Zhinan looked at the corpse, and even the tip of his heart trembled.

The body shape is the same, the clothes are the same, even the small mole on the back of the neck is the same.

All the evidence showed that the owner of this corpse was Aning.

Jiang Zhinan was silent for a while, then gently lifted the corpse's hand and held it tightly.

Jiang Chengxuan originally thought she would cry, after all, it was his favorite maidservant who died, so he would definitely not be able to accept it.

But he guessed wrong, he saw that Jiang Zhinan didn't shed a single tear, and the expression on his face didn't seem to fluctuate at all, his eyes were calm, and the corners of his lips were slightly pursed.

"Yu'an..." Jiang Chengxuan called out her name, thinking of something to say.

"Bury it." Jiang Zhinan didn't give him a chance to continue. He just left this sentence, then stood up and walked back, "Give A Ning a good place to bury him, and do it thoughtfully. As for the murderer ...I'll give you a month to find it."

"Understood." The servants around nodded in agreement, watching Jiang Zhinan leave with their own eyes.

Only at this moment did they realize that Miss was so ruthless.

Obviously when Ah Ning was alive, the young lady loved her so much, she wished she could pluck the stars from the sky and give them to her. Even when she had the audacity to set fire to it, it was thanks to the young lady's intercession. , This didn't make her lose her life directly.

But now that she died so inexplicably, the miss didn't even shed a tear for her, and didn't even say a word of concern.

It's really... ruthless to the extreme.

……

Jiang Zhinan didn't go back to the house, but sat down in the gazebo where she and Yang Zimo played chess together.

Ever since they had a chess competition that day, this chess set has been placed here, and no one has come to collect it, and the chessboard is somewhat weathered.

Jiang Zhinan picked up a white piece casually, looking a little dazed.

"Are you okay?" Seeing that she had been silent, the system asked her worriedly, "Actually, you don't have to worry too much, after all..."

"After all, Ah Ning is not dead, right?" Jiang Zhinan responded, frowning slightly.

Seeing that she guessed it, the system didn't continue to comfort her, but only asked her where did she come from.

"At first I really thought that the corpse was Aning." Jiang Zhinan murmured, "Because it is so similar, the figure, clothes, and the mole on the back of her neck."

"It wasn't until later that I noticed her hands." Jiang Zhinan said, "She didn't wear a ring on her hands."

"Is it the one she asked someone to call before?" the system asked, "an earring and a ring, the earring is with you, and the ring is with her."

"Yes." Jiang Zhinan nodded in response, "Others may not know it, but I know it clearly. Ever since she got the ring, she has been wearing it on her finger and never took it off."

"But this corpse does not have a ring on its hand, not even a trace of wearing a ring." Jiang Zhinan said, "That proves that the person who died must not be her."

"Yes." The system agreed.

"Everything is so well disguised, but there is only such a loophole that only I know about. Maybe she wants to reassure me." Jiang Zhinan said, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, "But since this is the case, she And why did she leave, and even make everyone think she is dead."

At this moment, Jiang Zhinan gradually felt powerless in his heart.

There are so many secrets in this child, Aning, she may not be able to figure it out in this life.

"44, tell me, will Aning come back?" Jiang Zhinan asked the system when he got up from the gazebo.

"Yes." The system said, "She likes you so much, how could she not come back to see you."

"I hope so." Jiang Zhinan sighed, bent down to put away the chess piece on the table, and carried it back to the room.

……

Ever since Aning left, everything has lost its interest.

Jiang Zhinan was still the same as usual, waking up at o'clock until o'clock to sleep, usually reading a book inside the house or going out to bask in the sun when he had nothing to do.

Not seeing that familiar figure, her heart was always empty, as if something was missing.

Time passed slowly like this, and it gradually came to the day of the hospital examination.

Jiang Zhinan sent someone out early in the morning to find out if there was anyone named Aning among those who were going to take the exam.

The man went out to inquire for a day, and finally told Jiang Zhinan that there was no such person.

"Understood." Jiang Zhinan nodded and told him to go down, but he felt more and more mixed feelings in his heart.

This kid didn't even go to the exam. He was so serious and hardworking before, but he gave up halfway in the end. He didn't even go.

"Maybe it's because there are some important things to do." The system said, "That's why it's delayed."

Jiang Zhinan nodded in response, but never said a word.

Very boring.

Because Ah Ning suddenly disappeared, and Jiang Zhinan's mission progress has not moved forward, so she can only stay in this world forever.

Appreciating flowers, making tea, eating snacks, these are the only things Jiang Zhinan can do.

After such a long time in a daze, the township examination was over, the general examination was over, and the palace examination was also over.

Later, Jiang Zhinan heard that this year's high school champion was a woman named Ying Wanyan.

It's a woman.

Jiang Zhinan couldn't help feeling a little emotional when he heard the words.

It's really amazing, but if Ah Ning also took the exam, then the champion might not be in anyone's bag.

For his own children, Jiang Zhinan always had [-]% confidence.

But now it's completely useless.

Time has passed, and it has been three years in a blink of an eye.

Another winter came, and Jiang Zhinan thought it was cold outside, so he stayed indoors as usual.

Now that time has passed, her longing for Aning has gradually eased a lot, and she has gradually gotten used to the days when she was not around, and her life has gradually returned to the right track.

At this moment, she was reading a book with a cup of hot tea by her hand, so she felt very comfortable.

But before she could read a few pages, there was a sudden noise outside.

Immediately afterwards, there was a burst of crisp sound when the glazed wine vessel was broken, the sound of quarreling, and the sound of crying, all broke out together, like a purgatory on earth.

Jiang Zhinan was stunned when he heard the voice.

Before she could react, a servant girl suddenly opened the door and ran in, and said to her in a panic: "Miss is bad, the master seems to have done something against the Holy Majesty, and the Holy Majesty directly ordered to come and raid the house." !"

"Copy the house?" Jiang Zhinan responded, his heart skipping a beat.

Sure enough, what she worried about many years ago still happened.

At that time, she felt that something would happen in the future, that it was impossible for the emperor to change his mind so quickly, and that there were too many doubts.

But the Holy Majesty is worthy of being the Holy Majesty, he was so calm that he finally made a move until now.

"Yes, miss, run away quickly, there is a secret passage in the house, you can escape to the woods!" The maid said, and then she went to the bookshelf and turned the mechanism, and a road gradually appeared in Jiang Zhinan's eyes before.

Jiang Zhinan had too many questions and didn't have time to ask, so the maid pushed him in, and then closed the mechanism again.

"Let's go!" said the servant girl, her voice sounded like she was crying, "I'll help Miss hold them back..."

Hearing that the maid gave her life to save herself, Jiang Zhinan immediately shed tears.

She was very sad in her heart, but she knew that she had no way to reverse the situation, so she could only grit her teeth, and fled along that secret path.

In such a critical moment, but for some reason, she thought of Ah Ning again.

It would be great if Ah Ning was still by her side at this moment.

As she thought about it, her restless heart gradually became more and more sad.
