hipAlthough Fu Yu would always believe Ning Shu.He also knew that Ning Shu wouldn't be so easily deceived by others.But Fu Yu still decided to make sure everyone could see clearly, best of all, crysta...The officials came in the afternoon and left, taking the body with them.

It is said that this servant owes gambling debts outside. The person he owes money to is originally a scoundrel and is now being detained.

Ning Shu heard Tao Lin say that, and was stunned for a moment, faintly feeling something was amiss.

He said, “Why move the body to our house”

Tao Lin, uncertain, replied: "Perhaps this scoundrel just wants to cause some trouble for the adults."

This terrified the servants in the household.

For a time, no one dared to show their face for days. Everyone finished their business and then hid in their own rooms.

But Ning Shu had thought of Liu Sui's words. These days, every time he dreamed, he dreamt of the things Liu Sui had said. Li Huai de held him in his dream, and then suddenly his head was filled with blood.

He looked up and saw that it was the Crown Prince.

The prince pushed Li Huai'de aside and reached out a hand to him: "Don't be afraid, come here."

Ning Shu looked down at the ground, and Li Huai'de's eyes were wide open in death. His stomach was a bloody mess, as if it had been crushed by something, and his throat was also pierced.

His hands were boneless.

Ning's face lost its color.

The next moment, he saw the county princess fall from her horse.

He heard the princess shouting for help.

The prince sat on his horse, looking at her with cold and bloodless eyes, not showing any intention of helping.

And in the final act, Ning Shu saw the slave who had been dismembered into dozens of pieces. His flesh was pieced back together piece by piece.

The other party raised their head, blood and flesh blurring as they cried out, "Young Master, I only glanced at you while you were bathing, I was wrong! Why must you harm me, kill me... Even as a ghost, I will not let you go..."

He woke up with his eyes closed, a look of unease on his face, finally breaking out in a cold sweat.

And just at that moment, a hand reached over and pulled him into its embrace.

"Ning'er"

The prince's warm breath washed over her.

Ning Shu closed her eyes, the shock in her heart subsided a little, she moved her pale lips and said, "Your Highness...."

The crown prince's peach blossom eyes gazed over, his expression probing as he softly asked, "You've seemed absent-minded these past few days. Is there something troubling you"

Ning Shu's heart tightened, and he clenched the blanket.

He was deeply affected by Liu Sui's words. He had been having fragmented dreams for the past few days, and involuntarily spoke out: "Your Highness, I dreamt of the dismembered servant..."

The prince's expression remained unchanged, he only said, "Why would you dream of him"

Ning Shu's eyelashes trembled, he hesitated for a moment, and then paused.

He wanted to tell about what he had seen with Liu Sui, but when it came to his lips, it turned into: "I dreamt that the slave demanded my life..."

The prince narrowed his eyes slightly.

"He doesn't go to seek revenge from the murderer who killed him, but seeks out poor lonely Ning'er"

Ning Shu shook her head, she looked at the expression on the crown prince's face, realizing that she had just been trying to see something.

He was taken aback by his own surprise. He had intended to believe the prince.

Ning Shu suddenly felt a little absent-minded, clutching the quilt tightly in her hands. Her heart became complicated. Could it be that subconsciously, she was also questioning the crown prince

Ning Shu considered himself not a white-eyed wolf, he saw the prince's kindness towards him.

He pursed his lips and said, "If I hadn't driven him away, maybe he wouldn't have died."

Ning Shu knew he might be a little too soft-hearted, but the moment he closed his eyes, he saw the pieces of flesh scattered about. And that servant in the dream, saying he wasn't afraid was just a lie.

That slave did not do anything outrageous, nor did he cause any significant damage.

After all, he is a man, not a woman. Reputation doesn't matter as much to him.

The Crown Prince lightly kissed his forehead, saying in a nonchalant tone, "I heard from my subordinates that he peeked at you while you were bathing. Even if Ning'er hadn't driven him out of the manor, I would make him pay."

Ning Shu didn't speak.

Perhaps because he was tense, he fell asleep to the scent of incense lit by the Crown Prince's men in the second half of the night.

On the second day when he woke up.

Ningfu was actually holding a religious ceremony.

Ning Shu was a little surprised when he heard this, and said, “Why perform a ritual”

The slave said, "To the young master, it was the prince's order."

Ning Shu remained silent. He saw several high monks entering and leaving the mansion. Then he began to perform rituals. As he performed, one of them opened his eyes and looked directly at the prince.

He recited a Buddhist prayer.

He walked over with a faint expression and said to the crown prince, "Your Highness, he didn't commit any major crimes in his life. This poor monk has already sent his soul to its resting place."

Ning Shu noticed that the crown prince's brow was slightly furrowed.

He stared at the monk and said, “He previously killed his own sister, didn't want to take care of his elderly mother, and abandoned her. In your eyes, these aren't big deals”

The high priest twirled his finger and said, "Your Highness, it is best to be forgiving. You carry too much killing intent with you, I must take my leave."

The Crown Prince collected his expression, coldly stating, "If it weren't for the blessing, that high monk wouldn't know which temple to change to next year to continue his practice"

The high monk stopped and shook his head.

Ning Shu didn't quite understand, but it seemed like he had grasped that the prince wanted to send this servant beyond. Beyond wasn't a good thing; it meant soul scattering, disappearing completely and never being reborn.

As a modern person, he naturally believes in science.

Just as Ning Shu looked toward the high monk, she thought of the prince's instructions. She asked with a slight frown, "Your Highness, why do you want to give this servant an afterlife"

The crown prince stroked his azure hair, his eyes cold and thin-lipped: “He seeks you in his dreams day after day. This loneliness weighs heavy on my heart.”

"Ninger hasn't slept well day and night, how could I possibly let him be like this"

Ning Shu's eyebrows jumped, and when she looked back, the prince's peach blossom eyes met hers. With a melodious and magnetic voice, he said: "He was originally a villain who committed so many crimes. I am acting on behalf of heaven."

Ning Shu thought of the words the prince had just said, and couldn't help but shut her mouth.

They stayed at the palace for more than half a month because the prince couldn't leave the palace for too long.

Thus, after a few days, they set off and returned to the capital.

Ning Shu sat in the carriage, and from the corner of her eye, she saw her second brother's furious expression. Then, several servants hurriedly left the mansion.

He didn't know why he suddenly thought of Liu Sui.

Ning Shu thought of Liu Sui's words: "Will you only believe me when I'm dead"

His heart began to pound for no apparent reason.

The prince got into the carriage at this time, grasped his hand, and looked over with beautiful eyes and a gentle smile. His voice was pleasant: "Ning'er, what are you looking at"

Ning Shu withdrew her gaze and said, "It's nothing."

He saw the servants say a few words to the head, then disperse, while Ning's father didn't know what the second brother had said, and showed an angry expression.

His older brother was also a little angry and said loudly, "So what I will definitely marry and have children of my own in the future."

"Beast!"

Ning's temper flared, and he almost stomped backward. "Don't search! Don't bring that person back!" he threatened. "Or I'll cut off your silver!"

Ning Shu couldn't help but jump in her heart.

He looked at the prince, who was also looking at him, wondering what he was thinking.

Ning Shu calmed her mind and said, "Your Highness, I forgot that I still have some things to say to my mother. I want to speak with her for a few words."

She stood at the door, watching him leave.

The prince said, "Good."

Ning Shu got off the carriage and then walked over, taking her mother's hand.

She was a bit surprised to see him back, and her eyes welled up with tears as she said, "From now on, the future of the Ning family depends on you."

Ning Shu said a few words to her, then glanced at the prince in the carriage.

The prince didn't look here, but instead spoke to the guard.

He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, then quickly asked, "What was Second Brother looking for Why is Father angry"

"She let out a wicked smile and pursed her lips, saying, “Your second brother isn't fond of men He has one living in the courtyard. He suddenly disappeared these past few days, I wonder if he ran off with some other man. After all, he came from a brothel. Your father is furious."

Ning Shu's heart skipped a beat, and then she asked, "Mother, is the man Second Brother brought back named Liu An"

That day was when he heard Liu Sui give him the name.

"I think that's the name," he mumbled.

Ning Shu felt a chill run down her spine. How could this be such a coincidence, Liu Sui was gone

Where did he go Did he run away out of fear of the prince

Ning Shu wasn't sure.

He released the woman's hand and was about to turn away when he saw his second brother muttering under his breath: "The other night he asked me to buy him a house in Chang'an, and now he's run off. He's definitely not a good person."

Ning Shu was slightly startled.

Ning Shu silently got onto the carriage. In his impression, Liu Sui was indeed someone who made plans for him, even if it meant using any means necessary. If he truly wanted to leave, why would he still keep a house

Ning Shu's silent heart thought, if Liu Sui ran away out of fear.

Then he wouldn't want the house and would just run away instead.

"I've noticed you haven't been yourself for days." The prince pulled him close, his voice soft. "You've still been having nightmares"

Ning Shu went to look at his face, which was as beautiful as a fairy.

The prince is only a few years older than him.

He recalled what people had said about the prince when he first entered the palace. They called him merciless, a killer who even made the court officials fear him.

But the prince had a pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes. When he wasn't smiling, there was a hint of coldness and majesty in them. When he did smile, Ning Shu also thought they were rather handsome.

If he were to think that, the Crown Prince had not only killed Li Huai'de but also the Princess and now a servant.

Even Liu Sui disappeared without a trace.

Ning Shu vaguely remembered that the Third Prince had injured his lower body during a hunting trip and suffered lifelong consequences.tightly and then turned. 。Ning Shu paused, not looking back. 。I enjoy being threatened more than anything in the world. 。Zhao Qi hasn't seen those celebrities either, my family doesn't have much mone...
