Chapter 5 Don't be afraid of me, okay? 5
As soon as the two stepped out of the courtyard door, Princess Anren saw their back feet.

"Jin Rong, Ning Ning, who are you?"

It turned out that Princess Anren knew she was here all along, Qi Ningning scratched her hair.

She thought that Luo Jinrong locked herself in a small dark room and would not let others know about it.

In fact, Princess Anren only knew that her son brought Qi Ningning to the house out of protection, she didn't even know that Qi Ningning couldn't even get out of the house.

Luo Jinrong replied, "I'll take Ningning out for a walk."

After Princess Anren nodded, the two went out holding hands, without any scruples that Princess Anren was still watching.

Princess Anren saw the two children holding hands, her heart softened, she just felt that after many things, her son, who had already become indifferent and ruthless, was willing to show his feelings, which was really rare.

After leaving the palace, Qi Ningning felt as if she had come back to life.

The weight of her body has always made her weak and listless, so that she is not interested in anything, but she still wants to do something.

Due to the ribbon, Qi Ningning couldn't go anywhere.

She also tried to use some sharp tools to loosen the ribbon, but unfortunately, the two maids had been watching her during the day, so she couldn't do it at all.

When they were gone, once, Qi Ningning tried to break the teacup, and then went to fray the ribbon bit by bit.

However, the material of the ribbon is very special, even if she gritted her teeth to grind it, she could only hook out a few strands, but it couldn't be cut at all. This made her very annoyed, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Qi Ningning's relaxed expression fell into Luo Jinrong's eyes, and he couldn't help squinting his eyes.

The scene outside the mansion still had some impressions in Qi Ningning's mind, but Luo Jinrong took her by the hand and led her away, so she didn't need to think about where to go.

The two of them walked slowly as if they were taking a walk until they reached the gate of the imperial city.

The towering city wall blocks the prying eyes of the outside world on the inner scenery, and at the same time isolates the noise of the outside world.

Qi Ningning looked up and saw that this was the first level of Luo Jinrong's siege.

The city wall built of gray bricks was cold without any smoke, and on the high platform inside the city wall, there was a person hanging there.

To be precise, a woman.

A woman who seems to have been forgotten.

The clothes she was wearing were in tatters, the light cyan color was rendered by the messy red, which was shocking.

The two arms are higher than the head, and the wrists are tied with hemp rope. The end of the rope is tied to the wooden post hanging the red palace lantern standing on the city wall.

Her long hair was already disheveled, and it was precisely because of the cover of her hair that her lowered head could not see her face clearly.

Qi Ningning was a little scared, she had never seen such a person in reality.

However, she has seen a kind of torture in ancient times. After a person was tortured to death, the corpse was hung on the city wall and exposed for three days.

Sometimes it is hot sun, sometimes there will be heavy rain, wind and rain, and you will be bitten and eaten by mosquitoes. Even if you die, you will not be able to rest in peace.

Undoubtedly a harsh punishment.

At this moment, I can really see that there are unspeakable emotions in Qi Ningning's heart.

Sensing the cold sweat in Qi Ningning's hands, Luo Jinrong looked down at the stone road under his feet and asked:

"Do you know who she is?"

who is she.

A feeling of uneasiness spread in my heart, thinking of some possibility, my heart skipped a beat.

She wanted to open her mouth, but couldn't utter those words at all.

In the end, Luo Jinrong announced the answer.

"She is the willow branch, the willow branch beside you."

Qi Ningning's face was as pale as paper, even though she had doubts and distrust towards Liu Zhi, she didn't want to see him die tragically.

Luo Jinrong continued: "Do you know why she died?"

Immediately afterwards, Qi Ningning heard him say again: "Liu Zhi is not a loyal protector, she has already become a pawn in Jia Rong'er's hands."

"For a long time, what Liu Zhi said and did by your side was for Jia Rong'er, a servant with ulterior motives. It would be an eyesore to keep it. I was afraid that she would hurt you one day, so I did it."

It turned out to be like this, she said why that Liu Zhi always cared about Huangfu Sheng so much, it turned out that she was just using her to do things for Jia Rong'er.

I have to say that Jia Ronger is really scheming.

That Huangfu Sheng is also a real villain.

The two are a good match.

However, Liu Zhi's death cast a big shadow on Qi Ningning.

She had never seen another side of Luo Jinrong.

Although Luo Jinrong did scare her on the night of the mutiny, she had never seen him kill someone, but she knew that he acted swiftly and resolutely, so she couldn't imagine much from the words in the book.

Liu Zhi's death proved that Luo Jinrong was not tolerant and could not tolerate sand in his eyes.

Blackening also turned him into another bloodthirsty person through and through.

Now Qi Ningning didn't dare to provoke Luo Jinrong at will.

The horror in her eyes was so vivid that it hurt Luo Jinrong's eyes.

His eyes suddenly turned red, his heart tightened with fear, and he could barely breathe.

"Little liar, don't be afraid of me, okay?" His voice was rough, and his breathing was a little rough.

Qi Ningning also really wants to be not afraid, but her modern living environment and cultural habits have been carved into her bones, and she still needs to digest it well in order to face all this.

The shoulders were tightly clenched, and Qi Ningning had no choice but to face Luo Jinrong.

He has a pair of thick eyebrows, elongated eyes, a high nose bridge, thin lips with a fine pink color, a smooth face, and a clear jaw line.

At this time, his eye sockets were slightly red, his eyes were moist, with a glint of water, his eyes were still thin and blue, and his handsome face was slightly sad and uneasy.

Qi Ningning uttered a few words with difficulty: "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid of you."

She stared closely at Luo Jinrong, hoping that he would not be too entangled in this issue.

Because she can only verbally say that she is not afraid now, if she encounters such an uncontrollable situation, it will be difficult for her to guarantee that she will not subconsciously show a fearful expression.

Obviously, Qi Ningning said that he was not afraid, but in his heart he must be thinking about how to stay away from such a cruel and bloodthirsty person.

Thinking of this, Luo Jinrong found it difficult to calm down his mind, and seeing Qi Ningning's rather difficult appearance, he had no choice but to let go of this question.

On the way back, Qi Ningning's mood was not very high, Luo Jinrong looked at the sparsely bustling stalls outside, and curled up his fingers.

Walking to a small stall selling raccoon slaves, Luo Jinrong stopped in his tracks.

"Do you want one?"

When Qi Ningning stopped, he met a small cat with white hair and sky blue eyes.

The cat's eyes are round and watery, as if inlaid with two high-quality blue orbs.

Qi Ningning couldn't help reaching out to touch its little head.

The touched kitten was also very well-behaved, lying there motionless.

Luo Jinrong saw that she had been looking at the white raccoon slave, so he understood, so he asked the stall owner for the price, gave the money, and the raccoon slave handed it to him.

The cat was very spiritual, and when it found out that it had a real owner, it immediately meowed a few times.

It was very joyous, watching Qi Ningning's heart itch, wanting to rua.
