With a delicate smile, the rough guy bows down for the beauty

Chapter 297
In order to confirm the guess in her heart, Su Junning still couldn't resist going to her father's study, but was prevaricated.

He only said that there was a problem with the salt tax in a certain place, and the emperor sent him to investigate.

Since it was just to check the salt tax, why would it be inconvenient to explain it clearly to her? This matter is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface.

The more she couldn't ask anything, the more flustered Su Junning felt.

She was worried that Shen Qianwei's trip would be dangerous.

But right now there was nothing to do, nothing to do but to wait and pray.

Since both her father and Shen Qianwei are very shy about this errand, even if she has doubts, she can't investigate it, otherwise it will arouse others' suspicion and cause unnecessary troubles.

So in the following time, Su Junning stayed behind closed doors and stayed at home with her mother and sister-in-law all day long, so she felt at ease.

While watching the marriage with his mother and sister-in-law for the third brother Su Yu'an, he was waiting for his cousin Su Yuren to end in Qiuwei.

When you are free, time flies by quickly.

Half a month has passed in a daze, and the weather in mid-September is much cooler, and the wind blows in the morning and evening, and it is still a bit chilly.

Su Junning was in Cui's room at night helping to read the account books. When she got home late, it happened to be raining lightly. When the cool wind blew, she got chills and had a fever at night.

The fever was not serious, and the commonly used medicinal materials were prepared at home. Nan Xu boiled a bowl and told her to drink it, and fell asleep drowsily.

After waking up the next day, I had a stuffy nose and a sore throat, and I was sick.

All morning, Cui Shi and Fang Shi came to see her, but she was not energetic and didn't say a few words.

While taking a nap in the afternoon, I vaguely heard Nan Xu, Yingmei, and Jichun talking outside.

There seemed to be some words in the words, don't disturb the young lady, keep it a secret.

Su Junning fell into a foggy sleep, her mind couldn't move, and soon fell asleep again, and she didn't remember this episode.

At night, when I was woken up to have dinner, I felt much more comfortable.

"Miss looks much better, are you still dizzy? The servant girl knows that she doesn't like meat and greasy meat when she's cold, so she specially asked someone to cook millet porridge and a few side dishes from the list. Let's eat quickly, miss."

Nan Xu babbled while serving vegetables.

Su Junning didn't eat much during the day, but she was a little hungry at the moment, picked up the bowl and drank a few mouthfuls of the boiled soft and sweet millet porridge, and her body became much warmer.

"Autumn is different from summer. It's obviously not cold, but a few needles of cool wind will blow it away." Su Junning gossiped.

Nan Xu nodded, "Isn't that right, Miss these few days must try to keep warm and rest, just listen to the advice of the servants and stay in the courtyard, just the weather is not very good these two days."

Having said that, Yingmei next to her also answered.

"Yes, it's just autumn, and there are many people suffering from wind and cold, so don't go out and catch the disease again."

Su Junning ate the food, she just thought that the maids were concerned about her, so she nodded indifferently.

"Sister-in-law is pregnant, so don't let me get too sick, just avoid it for the past two days, and just take out my unfinished embroidery work."

As he spoke, he glanced at Jichun.

"You have good craftsmanship, you can help me to see more, no one will say that I can't even embroider wedding dresses well."

"Yes, the slaves must do their best."

Sending Chunfu to Fu's body, he seemed a little nervous.

Su Junning was puzzled, her eyes swept over the three maids in the room, and found that they all seemed to be worried, and she became strange for a while.

"What's the matter, I'm depressed today."

"What's the matter?" Nan Xu immediately came over to help her pick up vegetables, "Miss is sick, how many servants can still laugh? Miss, try this choy sum, it's very tender."

Su Junning was suspicious in her heart, but she couldn't see more for a while, so she didn't care about it any more.

In addition, he was ill and lacked energy, so he washed up and lay down after a simple dinner.

For the next two or three days, it will be rainy.

Su Junning nestled in the hidden jade pavilion and didn't go anywhere.

Firstly, it was inconvenient to go out on rainy days, and secondly, the maids tripped her up with their embroidery work.

After being bored for three or four days, when the rain stopped, Su Junning wanted to go for a walk in the garden no matter what.

Nan Xu had no choice but to agree.

When I went outside, I realized that it was a bit windy, so Su Junning sent Nan Xu back to get a small cloak.

While waiting, I remembered that there were chrysanthemums placed on the veranda near the front yard, and now it was in full bloom, so I wandered over to have a look.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got closer, he saw his father and two colleagues passing by the corridor, apparently going to the study.

"The emperor's condition has not improved, and now there is a mess about the salt tax. I don't know how His Highness Prince Chen will deal with it."

"My lord is going to get married in half a month. Things are going on one after another, and I'm afraid I'm confused."

The two were discussing when Su Yi interrupted in a deep voice.

"These are not things that you and I need to worry about. What we should do right now is the essence, monitor the officials, and never allow anyone with a heart to take the opportunity to cause trouble."

"Yes." One of them responded, paused and said again, "Lord Su has also been troubled recently, and the affairs of the court depend on you. On the side of the salt tax, General Shen was seriously injured, and the situation is unknown. This is considered a half family matter. "

Another person hurriedly said, "Little General Shen is a lucky man with his own destiny, so he will definitely turn bad luck into good fortune."

Su Yi was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes, he saw not far away, Su Junning stood there staring at him in a daze, and suddenly his heart arose.

"Ning'er."

"He was injured?" Su Junning's face turned pale, and she approached quickly, eager to get an accurate answer, "Father, what happened to him? When did it happen?"

She didn't expect to be heard by her, and the two ministers who followed behind were a little embarrassed for a moment, and they all lowered their eyes and remained silent.

Seeing his daughter's anxious appearance, Su Yi moved his lips, but in the end he didn't give an answer, but only comforted him.

"Don't worry too much, Qian Wei is a person who has been on the battlefield, so naturally there will be no serious problems. You have just recovered from the cold for two days, and it is windy outside today. Go back and rest, everything is here with Dad."

"Miss!"

Nan Xu took the cloak and rushed back.

Seeing the manner in which Su Junning and Su Yi were talking, she guessed that something had happened, so she hurried over, tied the cloak on her, and tried to pull her away.

"Miss, the master still has guests to entertain, and this servant will help you back first. If you have anything to say, it's not too late to talk about it later."

"You know that, too?" Su Junning's eyes turned red, she turned her head and pinched Nan Xu's wrist, "It happened when I was sick, right?"

"Miss." Nan Xu looked embarrassed and glanced at Su Yi.

The latter said in a deep voice, "Ning'er, you go back first, and I will come to you after Dad finishes dealing with the matter at hand."

After finishing speaking, she gave Nan Xu a look, Nan Xu understood, and immediately pulled Su Junning away.

And from Nan Xu's mouth, Su Junning also learned a piece of news. When Shen Qianwei was investigating the salt tax, he was ambushed and fell off a cliff after being seriously injured.

Hearing this, Su Junning was agitated for a moment, knocked over the small copper incense burner, and was scalded by the hot coals in the back of her hand.

The maids exclaimed and made a fuss, rushing to give medicine.

And Su Junning was in a mess in her heart, she couldn't believe that something really happened.
