After the abuse heroine returned, she exploded

"I will cure your illness. You have to cultivate slowly. Only when you recover can Mr. Nie concentrate on his official duties."

"Okay, okay, cough cough cough."

After Mother Nie fell asleep, the two of them retreated from the room.

"A-Ning, this disease..."

An Ning knew that she wanted to ask if the disease could really be cured.

"Don't worry, it can be cured. It's not a serious illness. It's overwork and tuberculosis. Drink the medicine I prescribed and slowly cultivate."

Ruan Qingcheng nodded reassuringly.

"Okay, that's good. I think Mr. Nie is very filial. If Auntie gets well, it will be considered a fulfillment of his heart."

Suddenly there was a panicked sound at the door.

"Not good, not good."

The boy hurried over.

An Ning and Ruan Qingcheng immediately winked at him to keep him quiet so as not to disturb Nie's mother in the room.

"What's the rush?"

The servant lowered his voice and said, "Miss An, just now, Master Nie was assassinated just now."

An Ning and Ruan Qingcheng were immediately startled.

Ruan Qingcheng asked anxiously: "What? Is Master Nie okay?"

"This... there are rumors outside that life and death are uncertain"

Ruan Qingcheng leaned against the door unsteadily.

An Ning is still calm.

"Where was the assassination?"

"It's in the western suburbs of the city not far from here."

In the western suburbs of the city, what did Nie Yuan do in the western suburbs?
Ruan Qingcheng firmly grasped An Ning's sleeve, and asked helplessly: "A Ning, what should we do? Nothing will happen to him, right? Is there any way to go and see?"

An Ning shook her head, "Don't worry."

She turned to the boy and continued: "How much do you know, tell me in detail."

"Just now, I went to the market in the west of the city to buy something, and I happened to hear someone say that they saw Master Nie being carried back covered in blood, look like that..."

Ruan Qingcheng asked anxiously: "What's wrong?"

"They... they said... it looked like it was... dead."

Ruan Qingcheng paled, "Impossible!"

Her voice was a little louder, waking up the people in the room.

"What's the matter, Miss Ruan? Miss An? Cough cough cough."

An Ning said to the room in a calm voice: "It's okay, Auntie, you continue to sleep. Let's go first."

An Ning winked, and they talked in a different place, a distance that Mother Nie would never hear.

"Go on, there's more."

A little cold sweat broke out on the boy's forehead, "I... that's all I know. I also heard it from others, but I didn't see it with my own eyes. Maybe they were talking nonsense."

An Ning nodded, "Okay, go down. This matter must be kept secret, and my aunt must not know. I left two maids to take care of my aunt. You know how to do it."

"Yes, Miss, don't worry."

After the little servant left, Ruan Qingcheng's lips turned pale and said: "A'Ning, the matter is not that simple. Whoever dares to assassinate the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment in broad daylight, whether it is the crown prince or Xu Xiang, is equivalent to breaking ground on the head of the emperor."

"But now I am more worried about Master Nie's safety. Can Aning find a way to know some details, as long as he knows that his life is not in danger."

An Ning's expression showed no sign of panic, just as Ruan Qingcheng said, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment was assassinated for a long time...

Who would assassinate a government official? It is nothing more than someone who takes advantage of the conflict.

Now Nie Yuan only has Ruan Fang's case in his hands. This is undoubtedly breaking ground on the head of the emperor.

Seeing that An Ning was silent, Ruan Qingcheng continued: "A Ning?"

"Don't be in a hurry, it's also possible...to kill someone else."

"What do you mean?"

She didn't understand.

"It means that if Mr. Nie is fine, maybe he will follow someone behind his back."

Otherwise, the news of Nie Yuan's life and death should have been kept secret, not everyone knows it now.

Ruan Qingcheng instantly understood, "That is to say, it is possible to kill others, but it is also possible... to die yourself!"

An Ning comforted: "Master Nie is very skilled in martial arts, so it's not that easy to get into trouble. In this way, Qingcheng, with your identity, you can visit him. Go now, if you are anxious, if you are sad."

When Ruan Qingcheng thought about it, she thought of Shenshui, "That's right, I'm the one who is most worried about Master Nie's accident. Okay, I'll go and have a look now. If it's a play, I will definitely complete the play."

Please, Mr. Nie, if it's just a show, it must be nothing.

An Ning and Ruan Qingcheng went to the criminal department together in the carriage, but An Ning did not get off the carriage when they reached the criminal department entrance.

As soon as Ruan Qingcheng got off the carriage, she lifted her skirt and ran over anxiously.

The person at the door stopped her, and said with a surprised look: "Miss Ruan? Why are you here? Are you here to find Lord Nie?"

These days, Miss Ruan often comes to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to find Mr. Nie to investigate cases. They know this, and they usually let people in.

but today
Ruan Qingcheng's eyebrows were stained with anxiety, "I want to see Mr. Nie!"

"This···"

The guards at the door looked at each other.

"Miss Ruan, it's not convenient for Master Nie to see you today."

A death order was issued inside, and no one was seen.

Ruan Qingcheng lowered his voice, and said to the two guards at the door: "How is your lord?"

She knew that after Ye Shangshu was dismissed, the person at the door was replaced by Nie Yuan's own person, maybe they knew something inside.

Their expressions were also tinged with worry, wondering: "This...we don't know what's going on with your lord, Miss Ruan should go back first."

Ruan Qingcheng's body swayed, and her face was extremely pale.

Hearing more and more people talking at the door, she forcibly stabilized her mind.

"No, I must see you today. If something happens to you, what will my father do?"

"Miss Ruan, don't make things difficult for us, we really can't let you in."

Ruan Qingcheng still held a sliver of hope and said, "Isn't it okay to pass it on?"

"This...Master Nie is still unconscious."

The only person who can communicate upwards is Master Ye, but Ye Shen...
"Where is Master Ye? Does Master Ye not care about such a big incident?"

"Master Ye is here, but after Master Nie's accident, Lord Ye ordered that no one be allowed to visit."

Looking at Ruan Qingcheng's pale face, they couldn't bear it and said: "Miss Ruan, let's go back first, we are auspicious adults, we have our own fortune, and we will definitely get better."

Ruan Qingcheng nodded in despair.

"That's right, since that's the case, then... I'll go back first."

Seeing Ruan Qingcheng's pale face, everyone secretly wondered if Nie Yuan was dying.

As the curtain of the carriage was lifted, Ruan Qingcheng returned to the carriage.

"Ah Ning, I can't get in."
