One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

Zhang Shi's face was already in a bad mood, but when she heard Shen Ninghua's words, it made her look even more unsightly. "You already expected this, didn't you? You're just waiting to see my Zhao Family joke today, aren't you?" She held the prescription and asked a lot of doctors about it. They all said that the medicine was a high-grade nourishing tonic that didn't have much of an impact on the body, but if she gave it to Zhao Ruyun, it wouldn't help her at all. On the contrary, it would cause her to fall unconscious, and even her pulse would fluctuate.

Shen Ninghua's expression was cold. "I told you earlier to prepare the medicine for me to treat Zhao Ruyun. It's a pity that you didn't listen and insisted on doing it yourself. Then, you can only bear the consequences yourself."

Mrs Zhang gritted her teeth. In her heart, she hated Shen Ninghua thoroughly, but her mouth gave in. "Fine, I'll swallow the bitter fruit I made myself. Princess, I'm begging you to treat my daughter now."

Shen Ninghua looked at her. To be able to get a mother like her, Zhao Ruyun could be considered lucky.

Logically speaking, her spine had been broken by the fall, and having dragged on for such a long time, she shouldn't have been able to hold on for a long time. However, looking at her appearance, she actually had quite a bit of vitality.

Shen Ninghua did not delay any further and chased out the rest of the people in the room, leaving only the Cyan Sparrow and Bai Yan to help. She then took out a set of acupuncture needles and began to treat Zhao Ruyun.

Mrs Zhang anxiously waited outside the door, her hands sweating profusely. If Shen Ninghua were to kill her daughter, she would have to pay with her life even if she had to sacrifice the strength of the Zhang Clan and Zhao Clan.

After waiting for nearly two hours, the closed door finally opened. Shen Ninghua walked out with a slightly pale face. "Mrs Zhang, today's treatment is ready. The next time we'll need to wait for seven days. I'll get someone to send you the prescription. You just need to prepare the ingredients."

Bai Yu and the cyan sparrow looked at each other, knowing that the young miss was in love with this scene. They didn't dare to disturb her, so they just quietly followed behind her.

When Shen Ninghua returned to the county governor's mansion, he was slightly surprised to see Chu Junyi in the room. "You're still here?"

Chu Junyi put down the chess piece she was playing with. "I can't bear to leave without asking."

Shen Ninghua lightly rubbed the center of her brows. For Zhao Ruyun, forty-nine golden needles had to be inserted into her body, and every needle needed to be controlled with extreme precision. This treatment had consumed too much of her energy, and she didn't want to waste any more time talking to Chu Junyi.

Chu Junyi was keenly aware of her tiredness. She stood up and walked over to her. She stared at her for a moment before suddenly pulling her into her arms.

Shen Ninghua's eyebrows twitched and a wave of anger rose up in his heart. He extended a hand and was about to push him away.

Chu Junyi pushed her closer. "Xiao Hua, why don't you ask me for help?"

Shen Ninghua was enraged. "Let go of me!"

Chu Junyi didn't budge. She tightened her grip on Shen Ninghua's arm as she felt the delicate struggle in her embrace. She felt as if her heart was filled with pain as she scolded in a low voice, "Shen Ninghua, don't move!"

Knowing that his strength couldn't compete with his, Shen Ninghua stopped struggling. As he moved his hand, the medicine powder that made him feel weak was about to rain down on him. However, he heard a low sound above his head and stopped his actions.

"Girl, you are the one with the darkest heart, how can you be so kind to me?" Right now, aren't I the most useful tool? With a good shield like mine, I can save you a lot of trouble. "

Shen Ninghua was stunned. She and Chu Junyi had only worked together and had never made use of each other …

"Ning Hua, people shouldn't kill themselves. If you can use them, do your best to make use of them. Don't be merciful. This way, you won't tire yourself out, do you remember?"

Shen Ninghua slowly raised his head. Chu Junyi didn't stop her this time. Instead, they faced each other with a smile in her eyes. Her eyes shone with a warm sunlight that seemed capable of melting the ice.

After a long while, Shen Ninghua raised an eyebrow and said coldly, "Are you done speaking? Then, you should hurry up and leave, waiting for me to leave you for your meal? "

Chu Junyi was taken aback. She looked at Shen Ninghua, who had already turned around to rest, and felt a sense of frustration well up in her heart. "I'm done. I'm leaving. Have a good rest. Tomorrow is the Zhou family's funeral, so you have to be careful of the Zhou family."

Hearing the silence in the room, Shen Ninghua turned to look at the window and suddenly laughed. "Chu Junyi, you really know how to scheme against people. I was almost touched by you, but you're right. If you want me to use it, then I'll use it."

As she spoke, her lips curved into a smile, and she fell asleep on the bed. But in her dreams, she kept dreaming about the scene when that person pulled her into his embrace.

The next morning, Shen Ninghua woke up and rubbed her forehead. Remembering the dream she had last night, she couldn't help but move her lips. She forced the throbbing of her heart to the back of her head and called Bai Yu in to help her with her makeup.

Shen Xuanlin cautiously stretched his head before the door of Rui Xi hall, but a thin and weak youth behind him tugged at his clothes, "You should be angry at yourself for acting like this. Hurry up and go back."

Shen Xuanlin turned around and glared at the young man, "Lower your voice. Elder sister's five senses are very sharp. You were easily discovered the moment you spoke."

The young man wanted to say something, but the blue sparrow walked over, "Young Master Xuanlin, the princess is inviting the two of you over."

Shen Xuanlin immediately lowered his head, like a dog whose fur had been drenched by the rain, and was dragged into the Rebirth Hall: "Big Sis, we only came here to play after completing the mission which was assigned to us by Master Flowing Cloud."

Shen Ninghua ignored him. She fixed the hairpin on her head and turned to look at the youth behind Shen Xuanlin, "Yunchuan, have you gotten used to it in the past few days?" After returning from Jiangnan, she had wanted to pay some money to have Yun Chuan stay in Riverside City, but this young man was stubborn enough to follow them all the way to the capital.

Yun Chuan's eyes were bright as he hurriedly bowed, "Reporting to the princess, I'm used to it. Master Liu Yun treats me very well." His mother had once told him that he should repay the favor of dripping water with a fountain of water. The princess took him in to read and write, and even asked someone to teach him martial arts. He must repay the princess.

The young man in front of her was the same as before, everything was written on his face, in this life, she definitely wouldn't let him die the same way again, "Un, it's good that you got used to it, Xuan Lin, if I want to go out today, I'll leave the mansion to you, take good care of my aunt and cousin, do you remember?"

When he heard that he had to take care of Xia Jingqiu and Yang Yingxue, Shen Xuanlin was a little unconvinced. However, recalling his elder sister's earlier instructions, he nodded his head in the end, "Yes, elder sister. I understand."

Shen Ninghua was very considerate, but it was a pity that Lady Xia and her daughter didn't obediently stay in the courtyard. As she was packing her things and preparing to head to the Second Prince's Mansion, the Xia family brought Yang Yingxue, whose footsteps were unsteady, over. "Ninghua, wait a moment."

Shen Ninghua suddenly frowned. Could it be that Yang Yingxue was going to Baili JinChuan's place to join in the fun?

The Xia family and Yang Yingxue were already anxious from waiting. They originally thought that with the news of illness, they would be able to build a closer relationship with the Second Prince and the others. However, this was a good thing after all. Although Xue'er's status was too low to be a crown prince's consort, it was still a good thing, wasn't it?

"Ninghua, I've heard that the second prince's consort passed away. Xue'er has always been very sad. Why don't we take her with us when we go to offer our condolences?"

"Aunt, do you know what you're doing?" Shen Ninghua said coldly.

Mistress Xia smiled and said matter-of-factly, "Of course I know. Ying Xue and the Second Prince have a good relationship. Since something has happened to his residence, he should participate."

Shen Ninghua scoffed, "Friendship? Why didn't I know that we were friends even though I only met once? Aunt, there are some things that others would rather be far away from. Don't push your cousin forward, it might not be a good thing if you get too close. "

Having her thoughts revealed so clearly, Madam Xia felt embarrassed, "Ning Hua, Ying Xue is only going to offer her condolences. She didn't …"

"Is Cousin on good terms with the Crown Princess?"

"This... "No..."

"Since there's no friendship, what's there to mourn for?" Shen Ninghua coldly scolded, "Aunt is kind enough to want to find a good future for Cousin, but that doesn't matter. My cousin hasn't fully recovered so she can stay in the mansion to rest. Bi Zhu, send them back. Today, without my order, no one is allowed to take a step outside the mansion. "

"Yes, miss."

Yang Yingxue felt a burst of anger in her heart. Just as she was about to speak up, she was stopped by Lady Xia, "That's right, it's all my fault for being muddle-headed. I actually forgot that Xue'er's body hasn't recovered yet. Xue'er, mother will help you to your room to rest. Ning Hua, your aunt is confused, don't be angry. It's getting late, you should hurry up and leave. If you're late, I would feel even worse. "

Watching Lady Xia leave, Shen Ninghua frowned and turned around to board the carriage.

Bai Yu was puzzled. "Miss, why did Lady Xia's attitude change so quickly?"

Shen Ninghua muttered, "I originally thought she was also a fool. All I could see was that the rich person in front of me didn't expect the danger behind her. But now, it seems that she's quite smart."

"This servant doesn't understand."

Shen Ninghua explained, "Today, she didn't want to attend Madame Zhou's funeral. She just wanted to use this matter to test out my attitude."

"Test?" Bai Yu was curious. What was she trying to test?

Shen Ninghua laughed lightly, "Girl, didn't you always have a bright mind? However, they were unable to be certain of my attitude. Just now, they had expressed their thoughts, if I am in love with the Second Prince, I will definitely be extremely furious, and if I am not interested in the Second Prince, then I will only protect the face of the Palace. "

Bai Yan suddenly understood. "No wonder Mistress Xia changed her mind so easily. I really didn't expect them to be so bold."

"That's nothing, Yang Yingxue is not a fool, if she had the heart, this matter would not have been impossible." It's just her luck in the future. "

Within Prefecture Duke De's manor, the crying sounds continued to spread out, and the pure white color made the interior of the manor look pure and unadorned.

Just as Shen Ninghua got off the carriage, a sharp voice shouted, "How come you have the face to come to my son's funeral?"
