"No need to check." Ji Yannuo said lightly, "The eldest lady of your house seems to like to carry this kind of thing on the street."
Zhu Ziyao's face was slightly cold, and the young man in front of him said slowly, his tone as gentle as ever, but with a hint of threat, "Brother Zhu, it's better to take care of him. If one day, Miss Zhu is hurt, she will be in trouble."
.”
Today's Ji Yannuo is no longer as gentle as usual, but a bit more fierce. Before Zhu Ziyao could say anything, Ji Yannuo bowed and returned to his usual gentleness. He said with a smile, "Today.
I'm sorry to bother you so much, but I hope Haihan can take my leave."
Turning to leave, Zhu Ziyao looked at the young man's leaving figure, becoming more and more elusive about this person. At first, he was just a young man like Zhu Zishun, but he did not expect that in just two months, he had become Ning Ning.
A well-known figure in the city.
Zhu Ziyao sent people to check Ji Yannuo's identity but all failed. The too real identity background made Zhu Ziyao more and more uneasy.
Today, Ji Yannuo actually came to question Zhu Zhu openly and openly, without covering up what happened between Zhu Zhu and Song Changning that day. Was he here to test him, or was he just here to vent his anger on his cousin?
"Miss, please walk slower." Que'er followed Zhu Zhu closely behind, jogging a few steps, and his face was already sweating. Zhu Zhu seemed not to hear, holding up her skirt and running forward, "
Since my father no longer loves me, what am I still doing here? I'm just annoying."
Since that day, Zhu Zhu had an argument with Song Changning on the street and poisoned the candied haws. After Zhu Ziyan found out about it, she was banned from home. She went to the head of the Zhu family to cry, and she didn't know what Zhu Ziyan said to the head of the Zhu family.
What did he say, but he didn't let go at all, which made Zhu Zhu cry, make a fuss, and hang herself. The whole Zhu family was in a state of panic and had no peace.
"Be careful." Ji Yannuo was about to walk out of the Crescent Gate when he bumped into a pink figure with thick rouge. Seeing that the girl was about to be knocked down by him, he stretched out his hand inertly and supported the girl.
After the girl stood firm, she immediately let go of her waist.
Zhu Zhu was uneasy. She raised her eyes and saw a face as gentle as jade, with facial features as if carved by a knife and an axe. The young man was dressed as a scholar and was unparalleledly handsome. His eyes were as clear as spring water in the mountains, like a spring breeze bathing her.
I couldn't help but be stunned.
"Miss, are you okay?" Que'er hurriedly ran forward and looked Zhu Zhu from top to bottom. She was relieved when she saw that Zhu Zhu was not injured.
Ji Yannuo immediately understood that the bright girl in front of him was Zhu Zhu, who was loved by all the Zhu family. He just nodded lightly and walked away.
"Why does this person look so unfamiliar?" Que'er said as he looked at Ji Yannuo's leaving figure. Then he saw his own girl looking at the young man's back longingly, and softly called, "Miss."
Zhu Zhu came back to her senses and asked, "Qier, who is this person?"
"I have never seen this before," Que'er said. "It seems that he came out of the eldest young master's yard. He should be a friend of the eldest young master."
"Brother's friend." Zhu Zhu looked at Ji Yannuo's back and muttered to herself, "Why have I never seen such a good-looking man in Ningcheng?"
"Quer." Zhu Zhu said with a smile, "Go and find out who he is."

Inn.
"Cough cough cough." Although the poison was cleaned up, Song Changning, who had always been healthy, fell ill and kept coughing. Song Yulian personally brought the soup and looked at the sick little girl with a cold face.
There was a hint of distress, and the cold voice couldn't help but soften a little, "Ning'er, take the medicine first."
"Brother, please put it there for now, I'll eat it later." The little girl said sadly, her listless look made her look a little more pitiful.
"Be obedient." Song Yulian said patiently, "Drink the medicine first, it will cool down in a while."
Song Changning glanced at her brother. She knew that Song Yulian had been busy with official duties these days and had to take time to take care of herself. She looked at his thin face, sat up, and obediently took the medicine bowl, smelling the bitter taste.
The smell of medicine made me frown.
Head, she was always afraid of bitterness, her little face wrinkled slightly, she took a deep breath, and drank it. Her mouth was filled with a bitter medicinal taste, which was nauseating. She forced herself to swallow it, and a piece of candied fruit was stuffed into her mouth.
, Song Yulian’s lips curled up slightly, “Is it still bitter?”
Song Changning's eyes were red, and he pulled Song Yulian's sleeves and leaned on her shoulders, "Brother is the best."
"Now that I know my brother, it's better." Song Yulian couldn't help but joked, "It would be great if I could be this well-behaved on weekdays."
"Brother~" Song Changning's voice was waxy, "I miss my mother a little bit."
This is the first time I have been away from Tang Fengchu for so long, and I don't know what the situation is like in the palace.
"When you get better, my brother will send you back." Song Yulian touched his sister's hair lovingly, "Ji Yannuo sent a maid, do you want to keep it or not?" Song Changning's illness,
The news soon spread to the small courtyard, and Ji Yannuo ordered people to deliver decoctions and maids, but the person never showed up.
Song Changning paused slightly and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, "Since everyone has been sent, let's stay."
Song Yulian couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly, "You are really easy to coax."
"Your Highness." Wang Meng's voice sounded outside the door.
Song Yulian glanced at her sister and said, "You should have a good rest first, while my brother goes to deal with some things and will accompany you when he comes back."
Song Changning nodded obediently, lay on the bed, watched Song Yulian leave, and closed her eyes with peace of mind. Song Changning never asked about what Song Yulian did, and she was even less interested in state affairs. However, from their occasional conversations, Song Changning
It seemed that he had guessed what Song Yulian wanted to investigate.
"Found it?" Song Yulian returned to her room and asked coldly.
Wang Meng lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, please punish me. By the time I went down, it was already too late and the person had already been silenced."
The clue was broken again. Song Yulian played with the tassels on the jade pendant, closed his eyes, and asked coldly, "Where is the Zhu mansion?" The new magistrate in Ningcheng is named Zhu. He has only been in Ningcheng for three years, and there has been nothing.
As a person, he is proficient in eating, drinking and having fun.
"It's still the same as usual. Zhu Qide has not managed the affairs of the city for half a month. He has been staying at Fulv Building in the past few days. There is nothing unusual." Wang Meng said, I don't know why Song Yulian is interested in a wine bag and rice bag. If it were a weekday, he would have been there early.
