Thinking about the recent case of "resurrection from the dead" in the capital, Minister's Wife dismissed all the servants around and said softly: "I'm afraid that you are not the only one who uses Soul Borrowing Gu. Although Mrs. Xiao can resolve Soul Borrowing Gu, with her identity, she is not necessarily willing to help. "Mother, please look at it. It seems like he is asking for the same thing first. Later, mother will tell your father and ask him to send someone to guard the city gate. When he returns, he will post immediately."

Pausing for a moment, Minister's Wife looked at Li Ning'er who had been silent the entire time, his smile became wider, and he said indifferently: "Your relationship with Mrs. Xiao is not bad, at that time after you deliver the invitation, you can come with me to visit Mrs. Xiao on General Mansion."

Minister's Wife did not know about the agreements that Qu Ling had with Huo Xinyi, which was why he was so worried about Qu Ling being snatched away by the other family.

After the previous quarrel over the concubine matter, the two of them could be considered as having completely broken off all relations. Since then, Li Ning'er did not continue to act hypocritically with the Minister's Wife, and without even looking at his similarly disliked mother-in-law, he indifferently replied, "Mmm."

Li Chenxuan felt a headache when he saw his mother's expression, which was filled with hope.

Afraid that they would cause trouble again, he took the initiative and said, "Since you're asking for help, I'll go with you then."

Although Minister's Wife was unsatisfied with his son helping Li Ning'er, he did not say much. He pretended to sigh helplessly and said sincerely: "Mother knows that you two are complaining about Mother interfering with this matter, but Mother previously told you to take in a concubine because I was worried about you … One day, there will be a good thing for our Li family to end. "Although the Soul Borrowing Gu can be cured, but you can't not take the matter of your son to heart, especially since Ning'er's body is much better now …"

"Mother!"

Li Chenxuan interrupted the Minister's Wife and a hint of displeasure flashed across his eyes as he said coldly: "Let's talk about this another time."

Minister's Wife choked, a flame ignited in his heart, unable to bear to vent his anger on his son, he coldly shouted to his daughter-in-law at the side: "Persuade your husband well. If you don't want to be born, then there are people who are willing to help you help us! "

Although this was not the first time he had been humiliated like this, Li Ning'er was still so angry that his entire body trembled uncontrollably, and his lower lip had been bitten off until it turned white.

Li Chenxuan's face darkened, and with a warning tone, he called out again: "Mother!"

Minister's Wife saw that his son was angry and immediately said: "Alright alright, alright mom will not say anymore. Mother will go find your father and have him send someone to the city gate to wait for Mrs. Xiao's return. "

Finished, he shot a cold glance at Li Ning'er, and turned to leave.

After exiting the garden, Minister's Wife instructed the servant girl beside him in a low voice.

The servant girl understood and left.

Being "spawned" by the Minister's Wife, the two of them no longer had the mood to walk around the garden.

After a moment of silence, Li Chenxuan comforted her: "You don't have to take mother's words to heart, do what you should do."

Li Ning'er's eyes flashed, she raised her gaze to look at her husband, and asked softly: What if I say, I also want a child?

Li Chenxuan's face changed, the expression in her eyes became gloomy and unreadable.

The plum trees in the garden filled with frost were in bloom, and the two of them did not walk to admire the plum blossoms.

Right now, Li Ning'er had no intention to continue strolling around.

He was considerate enough to not ask any further. He folded his hands by his side and bent his knees to bless his body. "I'm a bit tired, so I'll go back to my room to rest first."

The moment she turned around, Li Chenxuan's low voice that could not discern his emotions sounded out. "I will not agree to the matter of taking in a concubine. Madam, do not worry."

Li Ning'er didn't turn his head around, and didn't even pause his footsteps by the slightest.

General Xiao had been very diligent recently, to the point of "reading by candle night".

The Mrs. Xiao was very worried about this.

There was no other reason. This person was not reading a good book, but some sort of unsightly picture book.

It was one thing to refuse to admit that he was a lecherous embryo, and he even argued that he should learn to observe, improve his skills, and please his wife.

Qu Ling thought angrily, who asked him to be pleased!

"..." "This posture isn't bad either. It's just that you'll be a bit tired, but you just so happen to be able to exercise …" After talking for a long time, Xiao Jingyue realized that no one had responded to him. Raising his eyes in confusion, he saw that the lady sitting opposite him was glaring at him with a face full of hatred.

Xiao Jingyue put down the book innocently, raised his voice slightly and called out: "Madam?"

Qu Ling glared at him angrily, not wanting to discuss the question of posture or posture, she stiffly changed the topic: "I heard that you sneaked up while I was asleep and wrote a night's worth of letters?"

Xiao Jingyue was silent for a moment, before asking, "From whom?"

Qu Ling naturally would not sell out Xiao Yi, and immediately slammed the table and said angrily: "You don't need to care who said it, you just need to be honest and say whether or not there is such a thing?"

If anyone else dared to question him in front of Xiao Jingyue, he would have already thrown them out.

It was a pity that the person in front of him was no stranger to him.

Since he could not throw the person out, General Xiao could only be honest and say, "It is true."

Yesterday, he had spent the entire day looking at the picture books. His mind was already whirling, and the soft fragrance of the night was still lingering in his mind, but he couldn't do anything. He kept tossing and turning, unable to sleep, afraid of waking her.

After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly thought back to what happened in Tong Huai Manor and his heart was filled with anger. He immediately ordered Xiao Yi, who was standing guard outside, to find a brush, ink and paper, and scold Murong Qing a few pages of the letter, warning him that if Murong Shan appeared in front of him again, they would be friends forever.

Thinking of Xiao Yi … Xiao Jingyue made a decision regarding this "traitor", but on the surface, he remained calm and said: "The letter was addressed to Murong Qing."

Qu Ling asked suspiciously: "Since it's a letter to the young master of the Mu Rong family, why are you writing it so stealthily in the middle of the night?"

After pausing for a moment, her expression suddenly became odd. She sized him up with an extremely complicated gaze, and probingly asked: "Could it be, you and Murong Qing …"

What's the secret?

Qu Ling did not say the last part, but anyone with discerning eyes would be able to understand her meaning.

General Xiao, whose sexual orientation had been questioned, took a deep breath, endured his anger and explained: "I can't sleep."

Qu Ling was a little confused by the answer, but he subconsciously asked: "Why can't I sleep?"

"The heat cannot be relieved."

"…"

It was just a simple eight words, yet it was enough to make anyone to recognize it.

Qu Ling held back for a long time before he finally squeezed out: "Shameless!"

Xiao Jingyue looked at her crimson red face, which was not only angry but also embarrassed. His heart skipped a beat and he leaned over.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door.

"Mistress, Mistress, everything is ready. We can set off at any time."

Qu Ling glanced at Xiao Jingyue, then shouted to the people outside: "Let's go now."

As Xiao Jingyue watched her leaving figure, he silently struck Xiao Budian in the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Yi, who was completely unaware of the fact that he had offended his master, followed closely behind Qu Ling. With a face full of fawning, he said, "This subordinate just bought some snacks at the market and has put them in the carriage. If Madam is hungry on the road, I can take them out to eat anytime."

Qu Ling was very satisfied with Xiao Yi's considerate attitude and nodded while smiling.

When the General Xiao heard this, his heart was filled with depression.

His few personal Dark Guard s could be considered to have all been bribed by his wife to "rely on the enemy" and "sell out their lords for glory".

After a few more days of travel, they finally arrived at Zero City.

Even if he was as slow as a horse carriage, it would still take him only half a day to get to the capital.

Seeing that the sky was about to darken, they decided to stay in Yu Cheng and planned to go to the capital tomorrow morning.
