The man's domineering breath soon swept through her entire mouth.
She beat his shoulders desperately, struggling to escape from his shackles.
However, there is a natural gap in strength between men and women. No matter how much Ning Wan resists, it will not help.
Ning Wan's eyes were filled with anger, she grabbed his tongue and bit it hard.
hiss--
Helian Mochuan felt pain and let go of her lips.
Ning Wan raised her hand to give him a slap, but he grabbed it with quick eyes and hands.
"Helian Mochuan, you are shameless!"
Ning Wan is about to explode!
When did she, a majestic head of Xuanren Hall, suffer such humiliation?
Helian Mochuan held her wrist and raised the corner of his lips into a half-smile.
"Miss Ning, I have already apologized, what else do you want? Besides, you came to negotiate terms with me first, but now you give up halfway, what do you want me to do?"
Ning Wan took a deep breath and said.
"Let me go and I will come back to your house tomorrow to treat you. However, you are not allowed to humiliate me again. Otherwise, even if you are a nobleman of the Emperor, I will never bow my head."
Helian Mochuan immediately released the person and said with a raised lip.
"Miss Ning, it would have been over if it had been like this."
Ning Wan was furious.
How did she know that such a dignified prince could be such a rogue?
Helian Mochuan controlled the wheelchair and turned it around, slowly heading towards the door.
"Miss Ning, please be on time tomorrow, otherwise, I don't mind actually going to propose marriage to His Majesty."
Ning Wan clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
"Don't worry, Prince Regent. With your methods, how can my thin arm twist your thigh?"
The regent's goal was achieved, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the soldiers from the city patrol camp outside Duke Ning's mansion withdrew completely.
Ning Wan was lying on the bed, too angry to sleep.
Bao Zhu was worried and came over to take a look with the lamp on.
"Miss, the soldiers outside the house have been withdrawn. You should go to bed early."
Ning Wan glanced at her and asked.
"Didn't I let you recover well? Why did you come here?"
Bao Zhu sat beside the bed and said.
"My body is full of skin wounds. After using the gold wound medicine given by the eldest lady, I feel much better. I thought that the eldest lady didn't have anyone reliable around me, so I came over to check. If the eldest lady can't sleep, I can accompany you."
Let’s talk for a while.”
Ning Wan looked at her and asked.
"I heard that you were originally my mother's maid."
Baozhu didn't expect that she would even inquire about this in a short period of time, and she didn't hide it immediately.
"To be fair to the eldest lady, the slave was sold to the Duke of Guo's Mansion when he was six years old. He grew up with Aunt Ping who was beside the lady since he was a child. However, later, the wife died of illness. The Duke of Guo used Aunt Ping's inability to take care of her as an excuse and sent Aunt Ping away.
After being kicked out of the house, many of the maids and women who were serving the wife were dismissed."
"Because I was young and didn't understand anything, I was sent to the laundry department. Over the years, I was cautious and didn't dare to talk much. Gradually, others forgot about my relationship with Aunt Ping, until that day.
The young lady came back from the Third Prince's Mansion and punished a group of evil slaves with her own hands. Only then did the slaves have the courage to come to the eldest lady."
Ning Wan sat hugging the quilt, looking intently at Baozhu sitting beside her bed by the dim candlelight.
"Then why didn't you come to me before?"
The fact that Baozhu was arrested today shows that she is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. Moreover, no matter why she came to her at this time, her determination is obvious.
However, the original owner had been bullied in the mansion for so many years. As long as he had a loyal protector by his side, his life would not have been so miserable.
Upon hearing this, Baozhu immediately knelt down and straightened up, and said.
"Miss, you and the second lady used to be as good as the same person. If this slave comes over rashly and tells you that the second lady has bad intentions, I'm afraid she will be sent away directly by the second lady. In addition, you are not smart at that time.
I'm not quite sober, and I really don't dare to take risks. I hope the eldest lady will forgive you. I'm not afraid of death, but I want to keep my life, find Miss Ping, and find out the truth about that year."
Ning Wan frowned and looked at her.
"The truth? What truth?"
Baozhu raised his face and looked at her so seriously for the first time.
"Miss, your grandfather was a feudal official. Your mother also practiced some martial arts since she was a child. I can't say how good her skills are, but at least she can strengthen her body. How could she be affected by a mere cold wind?
, and what if it cost her life? Besides, after Madam died, the maids and women who were serving her were sold and beaten to death, just like those around Lin were treated today. Don't you think that some of them were beaten to death?
Is it weird?"
One sentence awakened Ning Wan.
Yes, Xie was only in her twenties when she died. She was still a young man. How could she die within a few years of marrying into the Duke's palace?
Baozhu held Ningwan's hand.
"Miss, do you know why the Duke of Guo has not taken a stepmother for so many years after his wife's death?"
Ning Wan shook his head. The original owner was stupid. When he was young, he only relied on pleasing Ning Xian'er to win Duke Ning's attention. When he grew up, his heart was focused on the third prince and he would not think about anything else at all.
