In her previous life, Shen Ningyuan was deeply devoted to her husband. Not only did she willingly live as a widow for him, but she also used her dowry to support his family.
However, in retur...
Chapter 170: Finding Mother
Xie Wanzhou brought Shen Ningyuan all the way to his bedroom.
After entering the bedroom, Ling Qing closed the door obediently without Xie Wanzhou saying anything.
When he turned around, Xie Wanzhou had already stood up from the wheelchair and walked into the main hall holding Shen Ningyuan.
It turns out that...even the disability is not covered up.
Ling Qing couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
His Highness, does he know what propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame are?
In the middle of the night, he knocked the widow unconscious and took her back to his own bedroom.
If our ancestors knew that the Xie family had produced such a person.
I’m afraid that even the coffins of eighteen generations of ancestors can’t hold it down.
Thinking of this, Ling Qing couldn't help wiping the sweat off his forehead and retreated to the corner tremblingly.
Out of sight, out of mind.
As long as he can't see.
Xie Wanzhou is still the kind and good master in his heart!
At this moment, the good master in Ling Qing's mind, who was "bright and clear as the moon", was staring at the laughing widow on the couch without blinking.
When Shen Ningyuan opened her eyes, she saw a pair of big eyes, staring at her motionlessly.
When I looked carefully, I could see clearly that the big face in front of me was Xie Wanzhou.
"Why am I here?"
Shen Ningyuan looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, her eyes full of vigilance.
Seeing her like this, Xie Wanzhou's eyes suddenly went dark.
“Chen Ningyuan, we have met so many times, why do you always look so alert every time you see me?”
Xie Wanzhou stared at Shen Ningyuan closely, "Why, do I look like I want to eat people?"
"You don't eat people, but you often take me away for no apparent reason, and then let me go for no apparent reason. It would be fine if you did something, but you just don't do anything. I don't even know what you want from me."
Shen Ningyuan sat up straight and looked at him helplessly, "If it were you, would you be nervous?"
Xie Wanzhou thought about it for a moment and seemed to think that what she said made sense.
"That's true. My behavior is indeed inappropriate."
Shen Ningyuan was about to nod.
Unexpectedly, Xie Wanzhou suddenly changed the subject and said coldly, "I should break your legs and tie you to my wheelchair. This way, I won't have to go through so much trouble to sneak around to find you every time."
Shen Ningyuan: “…”
Is this what she meant?
What she wanted to express was that Xie Wanzhou shouldn't have come to see her!
But at the moment, Shen Ningyuan knew better than anyone that no matter what she said, Xie Wanzhou would deliberately misinterpret it into other meanings.
In that case, she might as well not say anything.
Seeing that Chen Ningyuan didn't say anything, Xie Wanzhou felt a little uncomfortable.
After a moment, he asked sadly: "Chen Ningyuan, you are not curious at all, I brought you here, is there something wrong?"
"I'm not curious." Shen Ningyuan shook her head directly, "Anyway, you never come to me for anything important."
"You are quite direct." Xie Wanzhou couldn't help but laugh, "Chen Ningyuan, in this world, except for you, no one dares to talk to me like this."
“Then you have experienced it!”
Shen Ningyuan stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his body.
"Since Your Highness is fine, I will go back first."
After saying that, without waiting for Xie Wanzhou's response, Shen Ningyuan walked straight out the door.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door, Xie Wanzhou suddenly asked: "But what if I came to you this time because of your mother's matter?"
"What?"
Shen Ningyuan immediately turned around and looked at Xie Wanzhou anxiously, "Do you know about my mother?"
Xie Wanzhou raised his eyebrows, "So, is this an important matter?"
Shen Ningyuan took a deep breath and asked nervously: “Xie Wanzhou, stop making trouble, do you really know the news about my mother?”
Xie Wanzhou nodded, "I know."
"Where is my mother?" Shen Ningyuan was even more nervous than before.
Seeing Shen Ningyuan's anxious look, even if Xie Wanzhou wanted to make a few more jokes, he had to give up.
He immediately said, "Ling Qing can take you to the southern courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing."
"Okay." Shen Ningyuan looked at Xie Wanzhou gratefully and said seriously: "Xie Wanzhou, if you can find my mother, I owe you this favor."
"It's okay. You can keep owing me money." Xie Wanzhou lowered his voice, "I never thought about asking you to pay me back."
But the voice was too soft, and Shen Ningyuan didn't hear anything of the last sentence.
Without having time to respond to Xie Wanzhou, he hurriedly left the palace.
Seeing this, Xie Wanzhou quickly asked Ling Qing to follow.
Shen Ningyuan came all the way to the general's mansion, but did not enter from the main gate. Instead, he climbed over the remote courtyard wall at the back and found Shen Haoyue's courtyard.
At this time, Shen Haoyue was about to fall asleep when he suddenly heard some movement outside the window, and then he heard Shen Ningyuan's voice.
"Brother, are you asleep?"
Shen Haoyue was shocked, and immediately got up from the bed, ran barefoot to open the window.
"Sister, why are you here?" Shen Haoyue asked in surprise.
"Second brother, I found my mother!"
"Found it?" Shen Haoyue was stunned. "Where is it?"
"I'm not sure about the exact location. Xie Wanzhou's men will take us there to find our mother."
"Xie Wanzhou?" Upon hearing this name, Shen Haoyue was obviously stunned, "Sister, have you been in contact with him these days?"
Shen Ningyuan agreed not to speak.
“Sister, stay away from him...in the future.” Shen Haoyue said in a very serious tone.
Shen Ningyuan didn't think much about it, just thought that Shen Haoyue was worried that he would suffer a loss, so he nodded along with his words.
"Second brother, I understand." Shen Ningyuan looked around, "Let's quickly find eldest brother and go to the outskirts of Beijing to rescue mother."
"good."
After a stick of incense, the three siblings climbed over the courtyard wall.
At this time, Ling Qing had been waiting for a long time, leading four horses.
The first time they saw Ling Qing, Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue's eyes immediately became very strange.
Ling Qing obviously noticed something and moved his feet uncomfortably to avoid the scrutinizing gazes of Shen Haobai and Shen Haoyue.
Shen Ningyuan didn't care about these subtle changes, and urged anxiously: "Ling Qing, take us to find mother!"
"good."
Ling Qing responded, threw the reins in his hand, jumped on the horse, and headed towards the suburbs of Beijing.
The three of them didn't have time to think too much and got on their horses one after another, speeding up to catch up with Ling Qing.
The sound of horse hooves broke the silence, and four figures galloped in the hazy night.
As he walked along, Shen Ningyuan's brows furrowed.
Mom, don't worry, we will definitely rescue you!
Soon, the four of them arrived at the villa that Xie Wanzhou mentioned.
At first glance, it was obvious that this villa had been abandoned for a long time. When the night breeze blew lightly, the door hinges made a creaking sound.
Shen Ningyuan tightened the reins, subconsciously looked at Ling Qing, and asked: "Are you sure that my mother is really here?"
"Miss Shen, when has my prince ever lied to you?" Ling Qing asked instead of answering.
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan frowned, and seemed to be really thinking about this question.
