Chapter 313 I will never let him manipulate me so easily
Both the master and the servant were very suspicious of this sudden discomfort.
The two exchanged glances.
It is confirmed that they both seem to have special feelings for the guard named Xiu Ming.
"Let's go out and take a look."
Deng Youning had to find out the truth.
Ying Shi followed closely behind, she also wanted to know who this Xiu Ming was!
Why do I feel so heartbroken whenever this name is mentioned?
As if she had some kind of connection with him before.
And the King of Changle...
These things have been bothering her for many days.
"No, no, Princess, Miss Yingshi, you can't go out!"
The maid from the Yuan family quickly spread her arms and stood in front of the two of them.
She racked her brains to come up with a reasonable reason and said worriedly:
"Have you forgotten, Princess? Before, you were imprisoned by the King of Changle to extract your blood, and it was our Master who risked his life to save you."
"The Prince of Changle is sinister and cruel, not a good person. How good can his guards be?"
"You have never known them, and you won't find anything if you go there."
After hearing what the maid said, Deng Youning became even more suspicious.
Ever since Yuan Gu fell ill three days ago, people in the mansion have been constantly saying bad things about Prince Changle in her and Ying Shi's ears, and Deng Youning has long been tired of listening to them.
She was always skeptical about what they said.
Anyone can see from the poor acting of these servants that they are deliberately making up stories!
There may be suspicion of discrediting King Changle.
"Since you can't see anything, then I'll just pretend to be there just to join in the fun." Deng Youning said disapprovingly.
The maidservant still refused to give in.
Deng Youning was a little angry and glared at her with his eyebrows slanted.
"How dare you! The princess wants to go out, are you qualified to stop her?"
Ying Shi angrily retorted to the maid.
The maid had no choice but to step aside.
Not to mention that her status is vastly different from Deng Youning's, just compare their martial arts skills, no one in the entire mansion can stop her from doing anything she wants.
The maidservant was tactful and didn't dare to cause any more trouble. She quickly gave a look to another maidservant not far away, asking her to inform Yuan Gu.
Just as Deng Youning and her servant walked to the flower bed in the front yard, Yuan Gu's figure appeared in their sight.
The winter in Luoxia City is not cold, but he wore a cloak.
His complexion doesn't look very good either.
He looks sickly.
He had said before that he would pretend to be sick for three days, and he really acted like one.
"You haven't recovered from the cold yet, go back to your room and rest. Don't be exposed to the wind."
Deng Youning showed him symbolic concern.
She knew that if what everyone here said was true, she should be very sensitive and concerned about any movement of Yuan Gu.
But she didn't feel that way at all.
Therefore, even a simple word of concern seems like completing a task and must be said.
"Senior Sister, are you going to leave the house?"
There was a hint of displeasure in Yuan Gu's questioning tone.
Deng Youning could naturally hear it as well.
"Yes, there was a funeral procession passing by the door just now, and I had nothing to do anyway, so I went out to take a look at the excitement."
Deng Youning explained directly.
Yuan Gu coaxed him, "Since it's a funeral, there's nothing to see, don't bring bad luck."
Deng Youning: "I have never seen a funeral procession in Nanxin Country. Do you still have the custom of shouting the name of the deceased along the way?"
"Besides, why do I always feel like he called out this name on purpose, as if he wanted someone to hear it?"
When Yuan Gu heard this, a layer of frost instantly formed in his eyes.
“Ahem…”
He deliberately coughed a few times, trying to act weak to gain Deng Youning's attention so that Deng Youning would have no time to care about the funeral outside.
But this time, Yuan Gu did not receive the condolences and concern that Deng Youning should have given him.
The anger in his heart had reached its peak.
In order not to lose composure in front of my senior sister, I have been suppressing my anger.
He didn't understand why it was useless no matter how nice he was to his senior sister.
As long as the King of Changle makes a little noise, it will catch the attention of Senior Sister!
"Senior Sister, Cousin Han has been awake for longer periods of time recently. When I came here just now, I passed by his room and saw that he was awake. Why don't we go over and talk to him?"
"Don't waste your time chatting with your cousin because of a dead stranger outside."
Yuan Gu moved Han Xian out.
His words were full of concern for Han Xian.
But when Deng Youning heard it, she always felt that he was using Han Xian to threaten her.
My cousin has been recovering from his injuries for six or seven days. No matter how serious his injury is, at least he should be conscious.
However, Han Xian's time of consciousness was extremely limited, and he seemed to have lost the ability to speak.
She didn't understand either. Her cousin's voice and larynx were clearly not injured, so why did this happen?
What was even more strange was that when he was awake, Yuan Gu never came with him to visit him.
Every time Yuan Guding would come when he was unconscious.
I don’t know what your intention is?
Deng Youning seems to be born with a rebellious nature. The more others forbid her to do something, the more she wants to find out the truth.
Moreover, she always felt that she had inexplicable memories of King Changle.
The next day, she asked Yingshi to disguise herself as an ordinary maid in the mansion and follow the purchasing team out of the mansion.
We must find a way to find a portrait of King Changle.
Or you can hear more about him from the people.
Li Tianzhuo led all the people in the city to attend Xiu Ming's funeral. Deng Yan'an, who was hiding in the crowd, naturally knew about such high morale.
Early in the morning, Deng Yan'an went to the residence of Lord Pan where Li Tianzhuo and the others were temporarily staying.
The two had only been apart for less than a month, but they both felt as if they were a lifetime apart.
After shedding tears for a while because of missing Xiu Ming, they finally got down to business.
Deng Yan'an explained to Li Tianzhuo in detail what happened six nights ago at Ping'an Inn, when he ran into Yuan Gu and his group and was beaten by them.
"Ningning stayed behind alone to rescue those people. Xiuming and Yingshi sent me to the clinic for treatment."
"I don't know as much about what happened later as Xiu Ming, but it's a pity that Xiu Ming..."
When talking about Xiu Ming, Deng Yan'an's voice choked up.
Li Tianzhuo was also trying hard to suppress the myriad emotions in his heart.
He thought about it, then stood up and knelt down towards Deng Yan'an.
This action confused Deng Yan'an, and he hurried to help him, but he still refused.
"Tian Zhuo, what are you doing...?"
Deng Yan'an really had no idea what play Li Tianzhuo was singing about!
"Cousin, I am sorry for you and Ningning."
"If I hadn't deliberately angered you and left in Yuncheng, you wouldn't have run into Yuan Gu halfway and ended up like this."
Li Tianzhuo finally explained to Deng Yan'an about his intimate relationship with the prostitute in Yihongyuan that day.
Along the way, Deng Yan'an had actually figured things out in his heart a long time ago and was not angry with him.
He chuckled, "It's not your fault. Even if Ning Ning wasn't here, maybe Yuan Gu's people would deliberately wait here to ambush me, wanting to use me to threaten you, just like he captured Cousin Han."
Deng Yan'an is worthy of being the Grand Secretary of the Dongji Hanlin Academy. He can see through Yuan Gu's evil intentions.
"He is deeply in love with Ningning. He believes that nothing will happen to Ningning, Cousin Han, and Yingshi in his hands."
"Besides, with Ning Ning's personality, she will never let him manipulate her so easily."
"I believe she will take care of herself until we find her!"
Deng Yan'an had the highest hopes for Deng Youning.
Maybe in his eyes, Ningning is just so amazing.
