"As members of the Prime Minister's Mansion, you didn't persuade Madam Tian to get along peacefully, but you also listened to her and bullied others! If you listen to Madam Tian again next time, you will be kicked out of the mansion and will never be employed again!"
The servants quickly knelt down and said, "Miss, please calm down. We won't dare to do that again!"
Ni Yueshan dealt with the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion and returned to the Second Prince's Mansion.
A doctor told Ni Yueshan that Ni Gaofei had woken up.
Ni Yueshan hurried over.
Ni Yueshan stood by the bed, watching Ni Gaofei open his eyes and drink medicine. She squatted down and asked, "Dad, does your wound still hurt?"
Ni Gaofei glanced at Ni Yueshan and asked, "Has everyone in the village been detained?"
Ni Yueshan nodded and said, "Dad, don't worry, everything has been handled."
Ni Gaofei felt relieved, but he looked very tired.
Ni Yueshan reminded him, "Dad, don't worry about staying in the Second Prince's residence. There are imperial physicians here to see you, and the medicine they use is excellent. Wait until your wounds have healed a little, then go back to the Prime Minister's residence!"
It's not advisable to move now...
Ni Gaofei seemed to have remembered something and asked, "Where's Aunt Tian? Has she been released?"
"...I asked her to provide clues about the smuggling of sulfur. If she did, I would release her, but she had to go to the countryside obediently after leaving the cell. She agreed."
"But now that she's back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, she's not willing to leave like this. She's placed her last bit of hope on you, Dad!"
Ni Gaofei was not surprised and he closed his eyes.
"I'll deal with it after I get back."
"Okay, then Dad, you have a good rest."
Ni Yueshan tucked the quilt for Ni Gaofei and left.
Jing Yuchen hadn't woken up yet, his eyes were closed tightly, and his body was very hot. Ni Yueshan was standing beside him, looking at him worriedly.
After nightfall, a light breeze started to blow outside. Even with the windows closed, I could still feel the wind blowing in, and it became stronger and stronger.
Ni Yueshan asked the servants to add a bed and quilt to Jing Yuchen's bed, while she curled up on the soft couch next to him and slept for the night.
Outside the prince's mansion, the door was closed. Zou Yangyao stood at the gate with thorns on his back and the blood on his neck had coagulated and formed scabs. Only the slight pain reminded him of the humiliation he suffered today.
At this time, a carriage stopped shakily not far from him, and a man got off the carriage.
She was wearing a lavender long dress and a cloak, with a worried look on her face. She held the cloak in her arms and walked to Zou Yangyao's side and stood still.
"General, the Second Prince might have already woken up, but he just doesn't want to see you. You have to stand here and wait. But the situation has obviously changed today! Let me put on your cloak?"
Ni Yingying looked at Zou Yangyao cautiously. His expression was terribly gloomy. She was afraid that he would get angry because of her gentleness and consideration...
After all, Zou Yangyao has never been an easy person to talk to.
Zou Yangyao glanced at Ni Yingying with a cold gaze, then raised his eyes and continued to stare at the door.
Ni Yingying bit her lip. There were no pedestrians on the street at this time. It was dark and the vision was not very clear.
Only then did she see blood on Zou Yangyao's neck. She cried out in shock, "General, who, who hurt you?"
Zou Yangyao was unhappy: "Go back!"
Ni Yingying shut up obediently, and then said aggrievedly: "I brought food and wine, General, do you want any..."
"roll!"
The response she received was still a cold word.
Ni Yingying shrank back, and tears welled up in her eyes.
Zou Yangyao is like an ice cube, no matter how hard you try, he won’t warm up.
She turned silently and took the cloak back.
In the second half of the night, a drizzle began to fall, and the rain hit the windows, making a noise.
Ni Yueshan woke up from his sleep. It was windy and rainy?
In this weather, Zou Yangyao?
Ni Yueshan chuckled. Serves you right...
She got up and looked at Jing Yuchen. Jing Yuchen's eyes were tightly closed, but his cheeks were not so hot. Ni Yueshan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to retract her hand, but Jing Yuchen grabbed her hand.
"I'm glad you're okay."
A low voice murmured from his mouth.
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen in surprise. The place was burnt to a pulp, and he was still repeating this sentence?
Ni Yueshan stood helplessly beside him and responded, "Don't worry, I'm fine. You're the one who's in trouble!"
Jing Yuchen didn't listen to Ni Yueshan's words at all, and continued to say in a low voice: "I'm glad you're okay."
Ni Yueshan thought Jing Yuchen was so stubborn, it was really cute...
Ni Yueshan tapped his nose helplessly: "I know, I know! Are you a parrot?"
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen with a smile, and seeing his sick appearance, she actually felt a little distressed.
At this moment, a servant knocked on the door: "Miss Ni?"
Ni Yueshan was puzzled and turned to look.
"Who? What's going on?"
"Miss Ni, has the Second Prince woken up?"
Ni Yueshan frowned: "Not yet, what happened?"
Late at night...
"Someone outside the door is fighting with the general. The other party is holding a sharp knife and has a mask on his face. He looks like an assassin!"
An assassin attacked Zou Yangyao at the gate of the Second Prince's Mansion?
Ni Yueshan was stunned. She let go of Jing Yuchen's hand and walked out. She opened the door. The servant asked anxiously, "I don't know. Should we help him?"
Zou Yangyao is the culprit who injured Jing Yuchen!
But now he has been attacked at the door. Should I help him?
Ni Yueshan frowned: "Let's go and take a look!"
The door was opened a crack, and Ni Yueshan saw the situation outside through the gap.
In the strong wind and drizzle, Zou Yangyao, with thorns on his back, fought with five or six assassins. Zou Yangyao was unarmed, while the opponents were all holding sharp blades, and each of their attacks was fierce.
This is to kill Zou Yangyao...
Zou Yangyao came to the Second Prince's Mansion to apologize, but what would happen if something happened to him here?
By then, even if there is no evidence to prove that it was Jing Yuchen who did it, others will still suspect that it was Jing Yuchen, right?
A servant beside him asked anxiously, "Miss Ni, the Second Prince hasn't woken up yet. Why don't you go ask the Prime Minister for advice?"
Should we take action or not?
Ni Yueshan just felt that the person who came to assassinate him did it on purpose.
While wanting to harm Jing Yuchen, he also wanted to take Zou Yangyao's life!
Zou Yangyao was in the general's mansion, where he was protected by guards, but at the gate of the Second Prince's mansion, no one came to help, which meant that he had no help.
Therefore, Zou Yangyao’s life now depends on whether the Second Prince’s Mansion is willing to rescue him!
The person behind the scenes is really insidious.
Ni Yueshan and his servants were still watching when a knife blade came stabbing towards them and hit the door. It was just a little bit away and Ni Yueshan's eyes would have been blinded!
