Chapter 15

There are people coming and going at the alley, the air is filled with the smell of fireworks, and the hawkers are constantly shouting.

This is where the bustling night market of Dijing begins.

Among the crowd, a woman walked slowly into the courtyard, wearing a frosty leaf red skirt floating with the wind, swaying gracefully as she walked, extremely eye-catching.

Jiang Nan looked up at Sheng Ning, and sneered: "I've been away for three years, and you never came to clean it. You only came after I finished cleaning it?"

"This is your house, not mine! You've forgotten, why should I keep it for you?" Sheng Ning said angrily, "For the sake of our love since we were young, I won't give it to you. Is there something to eat?"

The food box was opened, and there were two pots of Zuixian'er, two plates of appetizers, not even a bowl of rice.

"This is not for me to eat, this is obviously your appetizer!" Jiang Nan's face turned dark, sweaty clothes stuck to her body, and the wound on her back was unbearably itchy.

"The wound is itching again?" Sheng Ning smiled, and reached out to help Jiang Nan scratch her back. She knew exactly where to scratch, and Jiang Nan raised her eyebrows and eyes comfortably.

"As soon as I saw you in Jiang's mansion, I knew that you girl remembered everything, and I didn't know whether it was good or bad! There are too many people in Jiang's mansion, and I couldn't catch up with you. Now it's just you and me. Get drunk!"

"it is good!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, each carrying a pot of Zuixian'er, raised their heads and drank.

"Are you okay?" Jiang Nan added a bit of loneliness to the context of her question.

"Good! Very good! Over the years, being loved by your grandfather, life goes smoothly!" Sheng Ning smiled coquettishly.

Jiang Nan remained silent and drank with her head down.

Sheng Ning is Jiang Taiwei's concubine, and the difference between the two is nearly 40 years.

No, to be precise, Sheng Ning is the fiancée of Gu Run, the young general of Shangzhu Kingdom, and she was once the number one beauty in the imperial capital.

The Gu family was in trouble, how could the Sheng family, who had been friends with the Gu family for generations, survive by themselves?

When Sheng's family was raided, Sheng Ning hid in Jiang's house to escape the catastrophe, and his mother spent all her family's wealth to open up all the joints, so Sheng Ning was saved.

When the three of them first moved to the small courtyard, Sheng Ning was like a withered flower, hanging on for a breath and withering at any time.

The wellheads in the house were all locked, and Jiang Nan guarded Sheng Ning day and night, for fear that she wouldn't see her alone and commit suicide again.

They all said that Sheng Ning was shameless and climbed into Jiang Taiwei's bed, but Jiang Nan knew that after being loved by a man like Gu Run, how could he fall in love with anyone again?
Gu Run was gone, and Sheng Ning's heart was about to die. The only thing left was to save Jiang Nan who was locked in the dark dungeon and almost died of being bitten by rats.

The two chatted while drinking, and Sheng Ning talked all about the shady activities of the Jiang family. Soon, the two jugs of drunkenness were exhausted, and Sheng Ning threw away the empty jug.

"Everyone in the Jiang family is thriving and has a bright future. That bitch, in the past three years, has been eating vegetarian food, reciting Buddha, and setting up charitable halls, and she has suddenly become a living Bodhisattva among the people! Everyone praises her for being the mother of the country, don't you think it's ridiculous? Pooh !" Sheng Ning propped his chin with his hands, with slightly drunken brows and eyes, there was a seductive smile, and tears rolled down the corners of his eyes.

"The higher you climb, the harder you fall!" Jiang Nan wiped away Sheng Ning's tears, the tears on her fingertips were slightly cold.

"Xiao Nanzi, you said that the most tragic thing in this world is to smash the beautiful things into pieces. We are all broken into scum, how could they still live so brightly?" Sheng Ning sighed with a smile One sound.

"You said that if you want to trample that bitch into the mud, you must first overthrow her backer. After three years, I finally did it. Just wait for the good news!"

Looking at the figure that was gradually going away and the road was staggering, Jiang Nan couldn't hold back anymore, and cried like a child. To prevent the crying from overflowing, she buried her head in her knees and hugged herself tightly.

When Xie Shu entered Beijing to be the crown prince, Sheng Ning had already died. No one knew how she died. Her passing was like a speck of dust in the sea, and no one cared.

It was late at night, and the East Palace was brightly lit with candles.

"Mom! I want a mother! Uncle, I want a mother!" Xie Shu cried with his eyes swollen, and rolled all over the floor. A group of maids and eunuchs surrounded him, and it was useless to coax him.

"Just now, why didn't you let your father carry you home?" Xie Yun's eyes were darkened, his ears were buzzing from the noise, and his intestines were green with regret.

This kid doesn't need to sleep?I really should have thrown this kid to Xie Lin just now.

"Mother said...to make peace with father! I'm afraid...if I leave with father, I'll... never see mother again! Ah!" Xie Shu sobbed, speaking intermittently and slurring his words.

"..." Xie Yun listened carefully for a long time before he understood clearly.He stared at Xie Shu with burning eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

"Your Highness?"

Seeing Zong Yue coming in, Xie Yun was furious and threw the brief book in his hand.

"Did you tell Jiang Nan that his son was sick? It's so late, why doesn't she take care of the child?"

"His Royal Highness, calm down!" Zong Yue was hit on the nose, bent down to pick up the book, and placed it neatly on the table, "The princess of the county didn't say she would come, she said you take care of Xiao Langjun, she can rest assured!"

"Does she treat me like an old mother?" Xie Yun was shocked by the ruthlessness of this woman, who didn't even care about her own son.

"Uncle, I miss my mother, I want my mother!" Xie Shu's voice was hoarse from crying, but he was still crying at the top of his lungs, constantly stretching out his little hands to grab the hem of Xie Shu's clothes.

"Okay, don't cry anymore, I'll take you to find your mother!" Xie Yun had a splitting headache, compromised his fate, picked up Xie Shu like a chicken, and strode out.

"Okay!" Xie Shu stopped crying, sobbing and looking extremely aggrieved.

"Your Highness, I heard from Ding Dong that the princess of the county left the Nanling Courtyard at noon, and she seems to be in Yuhua Lane!" Zong Yue reminded loudly from behind.

Xie Yun paused slightly, turned his head and gave Zong Yue a warning, Zong Yue muttered in a low voice, "I just don't know if... still in that alley."

As night fell and the busy city had stopped, Xie Yun drove his horse through the streets and slowed down at the entrance of the alley. The horse was pacing and stepping on the bluestone slab.

"Da da, da da..."

Crisp and melodious, shaking, Xie Shu was extremely sleepy, leaning against Xie Yun's arms, and slowly closed his eyes.

The gate of the small courtyard was open, there was no light in the courtyard, and the white moonlight shone all over the floor. On the stone steps in the center of the hall, there was a person sitting there, curled up in a ball.

Xie Yun carried Xie Shu off the horse, his steps were very light, and when he entered the courtyard, he accidentally bumped into the wooden door that was half broken.

"boom!"

The other half of the door fell to the ground and died.

The loud noise woke up Jiang Nan, her eyes were sleepy, she looked up, met Xie Yun's clear eyebrows, and subconsciously shouted: "Liulang, is that you?"

"..." Xie Yun stood still at the door, looking at Jiang Nan's eyes, there was a slight stream of light fluctuations.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" Jiang Nan realized something was wrong, quickly reacted, stood up and saluted.

"Hmm..." Xie Yun stepped forward, stretched out his hand to lift her up, and motioned for excuses.

As soon as the two approached, Xie Yun smelled the smell of alcohol coming out of her body, and frowned and asked, "Are you drinking? Alone?"
