Chapter 172: Remnant(1/2)
Prince's Mansion
In the evening, the prince returned from outside and did not go to the backyard, but went straight to the study.
"Can you come over the border?"
"Yes." The guard took out a letter from his arms and handed it forward, "The secret guard just sent it."
The prince took it, expanded it, and after reading it, he handed the letter in his hand to the guard beside him, "You can take a look too!"
"Yes." Wu Zhong read the contents of the letter, looked at the prince with a confused expression, "The third prince was robbed by a thug? How is this possible?"
In Wu Zhong's view, the border riots gathered only by some mobs. They could only become arrogant in front of the plain-headed people, and when they faced the bulk army, they were completely vulnerable.
The reason why the emperor made great efforts to send the third prince and Ning Hou to suppress it was just to accumulate power for the third prince.
But now, these mobs actually kidnapped the third prince and kidnapped it. In Wu Zhong's opinion, it seemed too strange and ridiculous.
The prince felt the same way about this.
However, although I feel a little strange, one thing is certain. That is, if the news is true, then Zongzhi will definitely suffer a little, but will not worry about life.
Since Ning Xiu received the Shengming Protection Sect’s security, then he would definitely not have any trouble.
"Your Highness, the Empress sends someone here, please come to the palace immediately."
Hearing the report, the corner of the prince's mouth raised almost invisible, with a mocking curve.
It seems that the news of Zongzhi's accident has reached the palace. His mother is not as calm as him. She is quite nervous and extremely afraid that Zongzhi will die on the border.
The prince tidied up his clothes, got up and walked out.
Wu Zhong was very confused when he saw the prince leaving. The prince was obviously the legitimate crown prince, but the queen did not care about the prince in everything, but instead planned for the third prince everywhere. This was incomprehensible.
They are both sons, would it be better for the third prince to ascend the throne than the prince to ascend the throne?
Hou Mansion
"On the way back from the temple, the eldest young master suddenly encountered the eldest young master's carriage that the man hijacked. Although Shi An and the guards tried their best to protect each other, the eldest young master was still taken away by them."
"Now, the old lady has sent Feng Rong to find the eldest young master, and I think there will be a result soon."
Zong and Ning Kun looked at the servant's report, and their expressions were different.
Zong was full of suspicion. In this radius of capital, there was still someone who dared to rob the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion. Isn't this clearly seeking death?
Ning Kun: Could it be that my second brother was someone who made it?
This idea popped up, Ning Kun looked at the servant and asked, "Is there anyone else in the carriage except the eldest master?"
"Return to the third young master, the Marquis's personal servant Jiang Da seems to be there too."
Upon hearing this, Ning Kun felt more subtle and more like his second brother did it.
First of all, the old thing happened, and the eldest brother and Su Yan were not clear about it, and the second brother was told to be happy to be his father, so he would definitely be annoyed.
Then again, the elder brother was inexplicably close to his close friend Jiang Da.
As soon as these were heard by the second brother, he was definitely unhappy. Then he came up with a cruel and ruthless spirit and sent someone back directly to pretend to be a tyrant to rob the two of them. It is very likely that they will teach them a lesson.
The more Ning Kun thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.
Look! He had already reminded his elder brother before and asked him to avoid contact with Jiang Da, but he didn't believe it. Now, the second brother felt that he was attacked by Green.
But what Ning Kun didn’t understand is why the eldest brother was always involved with the second brother who had the strongest brother? Could it be that he also wanted to try the feeling of being strong?
Ning Kun was whispering in his heart, wondering whether to tell the old lady about her suspicion, so that she could know that those rash people were just pretending to be the second brother. They just wanted to scare the eldest brother and would not really hurt him. This would also make the old lady less worried.
Do you worry less?
In fact, the old lady is not worried at all. Because...
***
The mouth was a little bitter, and the bitter taste made people wrinkle uncomfortable.
My head was a little heavy, and the discomfort made people subconsciously want to reach out and press it, but I found that I couldn't do anything and my arms seemed to be unable to move.
This is powerless and makes people anxious.
When Ning Ye opened his eyes in discomfort and impatientness, the first thing that caught his eye was a piece of wrist that was nearly translucent.
It is white and slender, like a white jade that can be broken when touched, making people afraid to touch it lightly.
"Young Master, you're awake."
Ning Ye, who had just opened his eyes and had not yet recovered his mind, heard the sound and raised his eyes, and Su Yan's feminine face fell into his eyes.
Looking at Su Yan, who was sitting cross-legged opposite him, with a cool face, Ning Ye moved his eyes, lowered his eyes and looked at himself.
The white clothes are stained with dust, and have become dirty, and their hands and feet are tied up and it is difficult to move.
Seeing his current situation clearly, Ning Ye's brows moved slightly, remembering An's scream on the way back, and... Su Yan's row of deep white teeth.
After memories are recovered and mentality is restored, Ning Ye glances at Su Yan and looks around.
A cave is covered with stone walls on all sides, dark and damp, and looks like the prison of the Ministry of Justice. So, is he now being banned?
"Are we kidnapped now?"
"What do you think the eldest master?"
"Are you a kidnapper?"
Ning Ye asked seriously, Su Yan smiled carelessly, "The eldest young master is so smart."
Ning Ye:...
Su Yan's confession was too straightforward, which made Ning Ye speechless for a moment.
"I thought you would at least cover it up."
Su Yan smiled after hearing this, smiling gently but not as deep as his eyes. He said to Ning Ye, "Why do you need to cover up? If possible, I would rather hang the eldest young master to the city gate and beat him up so that everyone can see you."
"You seem to be really resentful to me?"
"It's not resentment, it's anger! When the eldest young master becomes the laughing stock of everyone's mouth like a daidai, he will no longer ask these unnecessary questions."
Su Yan looked at Ning Ye and said lightly, "You and Daidai are nephews, and you are considered close relatives to him in your blood relationship. But even if you are close relatives, I never feel that you have the obligation to protect him. Even if he encounters something, even if you watch coldly, I don't think that's wrong. However, it's too much for you to bring him more trouble when he is in trouble."
Ning Ye nodded after hearing this, "You said it well! To Daidai, I have indeed lost the kindness that my elders should have. Therefore, you should be dissatisfied with me."
At this time, both of them seemed to be very reasonable.
Tell things about things, admit mistakes.
I only listen to the conversation, but no one thinks they are arrogant people. However, it is completely the opposite to what they do when doing things.
Ning Ye knew that his inappropriate closeness would bring more gossip to Daidai, but he continued to do it, as if he didn't know what kindness was. And Su Yan was the same!
"I feel relieved after hearing what the eldest young master said. In this way, no matter what I do, I think the eldest young master can understand it."
Listening to the words, Ning Ye raised his eyebrows.
Can you understand whatever she does? This is probably impossible.
No matter what Ning Ye thought, Su Yan reached out and took out a medicine bottle from his waist, poured out a pill in his palm, looked at him, and stuffed it into his mouth without saying anything.
Ning Ye naturally avoided it.
"Sorry, I don't have the habit of getting fed medicine."
"I'm not used to it for the first time! I'll get used to it a few more times."
If you don’t want to, what you say doesn’t matter, just force it.
Su Yan sent him off, Ning Ye flashed.
As he went back and forth, Su Yan discovered that even though Ning Ye was tied up and dodged, he could not stop him from being able to stop him.
Just like this, he was not as good as a sick young man who had no power to tie a chicken.
Realizing this, just as Su Yan was about to take action, he suddenly heard a sound.
The rope that tied Ning Ye's hands and feet broke open!
Ning Ye's hands and feet were free, and then raised his hand and blocked Su Yan's hand holding the pill, and then he wanted to take the pill away.
Ning Ye made a move, and the medicine was put on the wrong move.
Without saying a word, you will go back and forth. Su Yan flirted with his fists and feet, and Ning Ye was not inferior, even better.
The two of them were going back and forth, just when Ning Ye thought that Su Yan knew that only this was what he knew and was about to hold the person...
"Um!"
My heart hurts, so I can't help but get a punch.
The pain made Ning Ye know clearly that Su Yan was not like him trying to test it, she was here to be the real one.
I knew in my heart that when I saw Su Yan's fist wave at him again, Ning Ye felt his chest that was still aching, no longer carelessly, and moved seriously. He took action to capture her wrist, pressed her arm behind her, and landed his big hand on her back, using his body's strength to block Su Yan between him and the stone wall.
He was trapped for a moment, and Su Yan's fingers moved slightly. The medicine hidden between his fingers was about to take action, but he listened...
"You are really different from the past. Sometimes, I doubt whether you are Su Yan?"
