Beauty has a disease

Chapter 37 No regrets

"What are you thinking about?"

Ember blinked and said nothing, seeing Zhan Shuyun rolled up the paper and wanted to leave, she hurriedly stopped him and handed over another piece of paper.

"what is this?"

Zhan Shuyun took the paper and shook it open. He thought it was some kind of clue, but he didn't expect to draw a face.

"A mask, if your lord sees it while handling a case, can you pick it up and bring it to me?"

"Very important?"

"It's nothing important." Ember said, "Take it with you, if you find it troublesome, you can just leave it alone."

In the end, Zhan Shuyun didn't say yes or no, so he took one with him and left.

-

The family soldiers sent by Duan's mansion to search for people came back one after another, and the night got darker, but Duan Chang still didn't rest.

In the dark room, the candles on the four walls are shining brightly. Duan Chang is standing on the high platform, looking down at the dark guards who are avoiding the dark needles and arrows. Can't see his expression.

After a while, Duan Chang raised his hand and said in a neither high nor low voice, "Stop."

Following Duan Chang's words, there were also dark needles and arrows constantly shooting from the four walls.

Under the high platform, Lian Ying and Lian Shuang were back to back, panting against each other, their tense expressions suddenly relaxed when Duan Chang said to stop.

The two slowed down, skipping over the hidden weapons and arrows all over the ground together with several other hidden guards, knelt down on one knee to salute Duan Chang, and said in unison: "Patriarch."

Duan Chang hummed, and raised his hand to signal the two to get up. He bypassed the fence on the high platform, walked down the stairs on the side, walked into the mess, bent down to pick up an arrow, and suddenly said: "It's an arrow." Bar."

The hidden guards didn't know what Duan Chang was talking about, so no one answered his question.

Duan Chang turned to face the crowd, and stopped when he walked in front of Lian Ying and Lian Shuang. He held the arrow tail and sent it forward. The arrow suddenly hit Lian Ying's left shoulder. The skin under her clothes is not too small, a small dent has been formed on the clothes under the force, and Lian Ying can clearly feel the faint pain. For people like them, a more serious injury is more serious than this She has experienced all the pain, so she doesn't feel much pain, but more shock.

To my surprise, I didn't understand the intention of Duan Chang's move.

"Homeowner?"

Duan Chang didn't speak, and even Ying didn't dare to ask, let alone speak, but Lian Shuang reflexively let out an exclamation.

"What are you afraid of?" Duan Chang said.

He stopped, "Continue tomorrow, let's all go back." Pointing to Lian Ying and Lian Shuang, "You stay."

Everyone said yes, the action was crisp and neat, and soon disappeared into this dark room.

Lian Ying and Lian Shuang looked at each other, and they both saw the incomprehension in each other's eyes.

Uneasy and uneasy.

Time continued in silence, and the sand of the hourglass fell slowly but in a hurry, just like the ups and downs of Lian Ying and Lian Shuang's hearts.

"Do you know what's wrong?"

wrong?
Did you make a mistake unknowingly?
Where is that wrong?

They don't know.

"Also ask the owner to make it clear."

"I don't know." Duan Chang poked Lian Shuang's left shoulder with an arrow again, "Have you remembered this?"

"If you haven't remembered yet, it's not an arrow, but a needle?"

With one movement and one word, Lian Shuangfu felt his heart, and knelt down, "The subordinates did not protect the young lady well, and the subordinates know their mistakes."

Even Yingying also reacted at this moment, but her rhetoric was slightly different.

"Miss was injured and did not report to the Patriarch. It is the subordinates who have neglected their duties and should be punished."

Duan Chang threw away the arrow in his hand, took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped his palms, and said: "Punishment is naturally necessary, but this punishment is not because you failed to protect the lady, but because you forgot your identity."

"Subordinates dare not forget that subordinates are trained by the Patriarch and only obey the Patriarch's orders."

Duan Chang snorted, unable to hear any emotion, he said: "Speaking is better than singing, I sent you to Qin'an to protect Miss, it's only been two years, do you really regard yourself as Miss's bosom friend?"

"My subordinates dare not!"

At this moment, Lian Ying and Lian Shuang both understood that what Duan Chang was angry with was not that Ember had injured her left shoulder and they concealed the fact that they did not report it, but that they suspected that they were completely obeying Ember's orders, and could not figure out who was the master.

So, did the Patriarch only find out about the young lady's injury recently, or did the Patriarch discover that the matter had been kept secret for a long time, giving them a chance to confess?
If it's the former one, maybe it's okay, if it's the latter... I don't dare to think about it.

All they need to do at this point is to show their loyalty.

"What are you afraid of? Since sending you to Miss is to protect you wholeheartedly. It's right to obey Qingwu herself. You should listen to her orders and complete them with all your heart."

"It's just that you shouldn't have listened to her completely and deceived me."

Duan Chang's voice was low, "Our Duan family shares weal and woe, and one trigger affects the whole body. I can't tolerate the slightest mistake or threat suddenly appearing without my knowledge. Do you understand?"

Duan Chang nodded after hearing both of them explaining clearly, "It's good to understand, this kind of situation is only allowed to happen this time, and the next one is not an example."

"Go."

Duan Chang waved his hand, Lian Ying and Lian Shuang bowed and left, and only Duan Chang was left in the dark room. He stood there for a long time, then sighed suddenly.

"Why are you sighing, are you sorry?"

A voice suddenly sounded, echoing in the confined space, swaying slowly, but Duan Chang's expression remained unchanged, obviously knowing who the owner of the voice was.

"No, not to mention regret."

Duan Chang said, "I just don't know if it's right or wrong to let Qingwu get involved. Her family with a daughter should be carefree."

"Still regret it, distressed?"

Duan Chang still shook his head and said no, "I'm just afraid that something will happen."

I'm afraid that something happened to her.

"Are you still afraid?" The voice laughed, "Your worries are not unreasonable. After all, it didn't grow from yourself. What you understand is only what she showed."

"Since you are afraid of accidents, why not use Duan Qingrong?"

"Yu Lin can't." Duan Chang quickly said, "Yu Lin has been weak since birth, he..."

"I'm just talking, why are you in a hurry." The laughter grew louder, "You, Duan Chang, also have someone you care about. I thought you were cruel to everyone for the sake of the overall situation, and you have a heart of stone!"

Suddenly there was a burst of laughter, "Duan Qingrong, nicknamed Yu Lin, Duan Qingwu, nicknamed Ember, they are really close friends!"

"I'm ruthless." Duan Chang sneered, not knowing whether it was himself or someone else who was ridiculing, "But Qingwu is the one who asked to be included in the dark guards, and her martial arts skills are not bad, and she was sent to the door. Why should I refuse."

"You don't need to explain to me." The man said, "As long as you don't regret it."

Whether you don't regret it in case something uncontrollable happens in the future, or whether you gradually realize that you are in debt as time goes by, it is impossible to determine what will happen in the future. Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

Anyway, at the moment, Duan Chang has no regrets.

"By the way, why didn't you see Miss Duan today?"

Duan Chang sighed, "I'm in prison."
