C299 (1/2)
At this moment, Hu Ning was lying in a narrow and cramped bedroom, sick from death. She was not the legitimate wife of the mansion, nor was she favored by her master. Even at the best of times, a mother who died early would only use her meal time to kneel at the table to serve the Minister's wife's cutlery, or even a little girl who didn't have time to make cloth dishes.
Furthermore, she was born with the ability to harm her parents and to harm Shang Xingzhou's fate.
Hu Ningsheng is not smart, and her looks also follow her mother is not as good as Hu Jin Hu Rong sister. In his previous life, he had lived a silent and nameless life, but in the end, for the sake of his father's unnecessary pity, he had fallen into a state of disgrace.
Hu Jin, try again. I want you all to die a horrible death!” Hu Ning took a deep breath and opened his eyes. He sat up straight and stared at the smoke-colored window curtain. The broken bed creaked unbearably under the pressure. The rat that was stealing food was startled into turning into a black shadow, disappearing into a corner.
Hu Ning was not stupid. In her previous life, she had hidden herself just for the sake of living a good life. After being deceived by his father and Madam Hu's flowery words, there was also Ye Feihan …
Hu Ning sneered. Right now, aside from Ye Feihan, she was the only one who understood him the best. In the past, Ye Feihan had feigned insanity and cleverly solved the problem of breaking through the shackles of the Night, then successfully solved the problem of the Duke of Bao. It was all thanks to her scheming and cooperation. He didn't expect that in the end, he would be so sly that he would kill a dog and cook it. After crossing the river, he used the same tactic to beat her up.
For this plan, she must first think of a way to join hands with Nightingale in order to survive in the future.
The sky was about to fall into chaos …
”Ah Tu.”
The little girl, who was called Ah Shou by her, quickly put down her fan and sat down in front of her bed. ”What do you want, Miss?”
The narrow bedroom was filled with the strong smell of medicine. One breath filled with pain and pain took up his entire body. Shang Shu Manor looked down on this concubine young miss, so the servants naturally would not treat her well. It was past the summer solstice now, and the little house was damp and stuffy. Behind the window, not a single bug in the bamboo forest would fly in to take advantage of the situation.
This was because their day had been so remote and there weren't many people who would come back. Ah Tu, who was on guard in case she woke up and no one was looking after her, set the pot of medicine in front of the door.
She was making medicine when he woke up. It was the last one the girl could eat. The Minister had issued a death order. If the girl still hadn't eaten her fill, she would just drag him away to the manor to fend for herself.
”What time is it now?” Hu Ning sat up while his spirit was still holding on to the pillow. Her face was still unconcealable, but it was a good thing she had survived the ordeal and was no longer the sickly death she had once been.
”Miss, it's already the summer solstice.” Ah Tu looked out at the thinning daylight and poured a cup of cold tea for Húrin to moisten his throat.
His throat was hoarse from the long illness.
Hu Ning then asked, ”Is there any excitement today?”
She was usually calm and composed, so the silence was too great for Ah Tu to notice. He replied respectfully, ”The Regent's beloved concubine is hosting a banquet today to invite Miss Zhong over.”
Huning nodded. Although she was unconscious, she had her own perception of the outside world. Since she woke up early this morning, it had been extremely lively. She thought that Hu Rong was up to something.
However, according to his previous life, the Regent had not returned to Grand Dominance at all. This... Could something have happened?
Or had the plan been brought forward?
Hu Ning narrowed his long and narrow phoenix eyes and tapped the edge of the bed with his fingertips.
