Chapter 258: God's Punishment

"What's going on today? Can the tiles on the roof of Ci Ning Temple fall off at random?"

Chu Youning couldn't help but mutter in a low voice at this moment.

"What Tongzi meant by the loss of merit and suffering, could it be these little misfortunes?"

"If that's all, it doesn't seem to be a big problem, but I don't know how many days it will last."

"Hmm? Ningning, what were you talking about just now?"

Arrange Luquan to find someone to come and check. Wu Qingyi heard Chu Youning's mumbling and couldn't help but speak.

"It's alright, mother. I was just thinking that it might not be their fault. Don't blame them."

During the next period of time, Chu Youning had breakfast and chatted with Wu Qingyi for a while. Nothing unusual happened during this period.

She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It seems like this is just a coincidence. I'm not just unlucky."

People relax.

Chu Youning took some more blood from the snow wolf and then personally delivered it to Jiang Wanrong.

With her rapid flying speed, she quickly left the palace and reached the street.

Then, hail suddenly began to fall from the cloudless sky.

The hailstones were as big as fingernails, falling densely and hitting her head. Chu Youning felt a little dazed.

"No... this isn't really the result of forcing that dog to death, is it?"

“Isn’t this a bit weird?”

She was a little skeptical and quickly found a place to hide under the eaves.

Not two minutes later.

The hail stopped.

She didn't believe it and ran out again and flew very fast. The hail began to fall again, as if it would not stop until it killed her.

Chu Youning gave up.

Just have it delivered directly to the door of the restaurant.

After entering the tavern, everything returned to normal.

Pedestrians who were hiding from the hail under the eaves also looked up at the sky with blank eyes.

"Why is the weather so weird today?"

"Who knows? The hail is falling like a game, coming and going. It's really strange."

"Okay, okay, let's go home quickly. I'm afraid it's not a good time to go out today."

…

So, it didn't take long.

The capital city became quiet today.

Most people chose to stay indoors.

After Chu Youning walked into the tavern, Jiang Wanrong immediately came to greet him.

"Ningning, there was such a big hailstorm just now, you didn't get hit, did you?"

"Sister, don't worry, I'm fine."

Chu Youning shook his head lightly.

[It's just that I forcibly killed Chu Haoze, which caused me to lose some merits. Now I have a small problem, but it's not a big problem.]

[This is much better than being chopped into pieces by that piece of shit. ]

[At worst, I can just stay indoors for a few days. I don’t believe that I will suffer bad luck every day.]

"That's good."

Jiang Wanrong first breathed a sigh of relief, but then new doubts arose in her mind.

It's really strange.

My sister said yesterday that they couldn’t kill Chu Haoze.

Now it seems that it’s not that they can’t kill him, but that my sister doesn’t want them to get into trouble.

But... this guy isn't some great good man with a lot of merits and virtues, so why would killing him damage one's merits and virtues?

"By the way, Ningning... the Imperial Master came to the tavern today. He said he wanted to see you for something."

"good."

Chu Youning couldn't help but frown.

[No, is it because he ate mutton and couldn't sit still and ran around? Or is it because he has hemorrhoids and can't sit for a long time? ]

[The cold poison has just been suppressed, he should still be sick now, right? How dare he go out? ]

Jiang Wanrong listened to her sister's complaints and couldn't help but frowned slightly.

Why?

Could she have heard a hint of concern for the Imperial Master from her sister's tone?

Has she missed something these days?

In the end, she still kept the snow wolf blood that Chu Youning gave her with full of doubts, and let Chu Youning go to see Qing Qianxue.

As soon as Chu Youning opened the door of the private room, he felt a wave of heat coming out.

And Qing Qianxue just sat quietly at the table playing chess.

He was wearing much thicker clothes today than usual. In addition to holding a hot water bottle in his hands, he also had two charcoal basins by his side.

"Come?"

When one piece fell, he looked up.

"Why did you come to me, Master Imperial Master? If you want to thank me for saving your life that day, then that's not necessary."

Chu Youning casually pulled over a chair and sat as far away from Qing Qianxue and the two charcoal basins as possible.

[Let's put it this way. I was the one who spoke badly first, so it's my duty to save you.]

【Besides, the medical expenses were not paid by me.】

[Yes, the medical expenses... I still have the key to the treasury in the Imperial Master's Mansion, so it's only natural that they would ask me for the money.]

"Well, I forgot to return your key that day, so I'll give it to you now."

Chu Youning took out the key from his backpack through his purse, then walked over and placed it on the table in front of Qing Qianxue.

"This key is of no use to me now, so it's okay if the princess doesn't want to return it.

I came here today to teach the princess how to ward off disasters and avoid misfortunes."

Qing Qianxue listened to Chu Youning's words and spoke slowly.

Having just heard what was in Chu Youning's heart, knowing why she insisted on killing the Seventh Prince, and also hearing her concern for him, he seemed to be inexplicably in a good mood at the moment.

"Avert disasters? Then tell me what I should do."
