Chapter 5
"No!" Nangong Jin drew his sword hastily, but it was still a step too late. The blade turned and slashed towards her neck, revealing a smear of blood.

"Miss Leng..." Everyone shouted loudly!
Nangong Jin's heart seemed to miss a beat, he never thought that this woman would disregard her own life!He picked her up by the waist and hurriedly walked towards the house!
"Tell the imperial physician!" he shouted.

She raised her head in his arms and said softly: "My lord, since you have punished me, will you spare those servants..."

"Shut up!" Nangong Jin interrupted roughly, is this woman crazy, she is almost dying, and she still cares about those servants who have only been together for a few days!
She slowly closed her eyes, it was pitch black.

**********
It was late at night, Huanli Tower was still brightly lit, and the imperial doctor hadn't come out yet, which meant that she was not out of danger yet.

In the small garden in front of the building, Nangong Jin stood with her hands behind her back, her face turned pale, and the sadness she felt when she stabbed herself with a sword flashed again in her mind, Ning Ningyan, what kind of woman are you?Why do you always find ways to disturb this king's heart?

Nangong Jin didn't understand, how could a young lady raised in a deep boudoir have such courage!

Qi Yue came out of the house in a hurry, saluted and said: "My lord."

"How is she?" Nangong Jin asked anxiously.

Qi Yue replied: "Just now Liandu came out and said that Miss Leng's bleeding has stopped, but the wound is infected, causing the high fever to persist!"

"Did the imperial physician say what to do?" Nangong Jin asked with a frown.

"It's hard for Miss Leng to take the decoction now, so I have to use a cold towel to cool her down, but if the high fever persists, I'm afraid her life is still in danger..."

Before Qi Yue could finish speaking, Nangong Jin had strode into the Huanli Building.

The room was silent, the imperial physician was waiting outside the curtain, Liandu was serving every step of the way, and her snow-white clothes were stained with blood, her face was even paler, and her messy hair was entwined on her pillow, inexplicably It made his heart tremble.

He took the cold towel from Liandu's hand, and said, "Go down first!"

"Yes, my lord." Lian Du glanced at Ning Yan worriedly, and had no choice but to step back first.

Nangong Jin stared fixedly at the woman on the bed. After a long time, he put the towel into the ice water, wrung it dry, flattened it, and placed it on her sweaty forehead.

"Tell me, why did you do this?" Nangong Jin asked hoarsely.

However, there was no answer. In normal times, would she casually smile again, and then say something that made it difficult to tell the truth from the false?

Her smile, her injury, which one is true and which one is false?

Nangong Jin really couldn't understand the woman in front of him, the closer he got to her, the more he couldn't understand her!Did she come to her for revenge?Or is it really as she said, just to become his princess?

The sleeping Ning Yan frowned uncomfortably, her eyelashes moved slightly.

Nangong Jin took off the warmed towel and put it into the ice water again. This time, he looked at her fixedly and said in a low voice, "Ning Ningyan, if you really want to avenge your father, don't die so easily." Lose!"

He stood up, about to turn around and leave.

On the bed, she uttered a raving, "Yishang, don't die... Yishang..."

Nangong Jin was shocked, what was she talking about?Who is she calling?

He turned around and sat beside her, trying to hear what she said clearly again, but she just moved her dry lips and didn't continue speaking.

He stretched out his hand and covered her hot forehead.

Who is this person named Yishang?
At this moment, Ning Ningyan suddenly grabbed his slightly cold big hand, like grabbing a life-saving straw, "Yi Shang...Yi Shang..."

For no reason, Nangong Jin felt blocked, he didn't like to hear other people's names being called out of her mouth!

This thought even shocked him, he pushed Ning Yan's hand away in a panic, and hurried out, but when he reached the door, he said to Liandu and the imperial physician, "Take care of me!"

Although Liandu was a little puzzled by Nangong Jin's panic, he didn't dare to ask further questions, nodded and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, this servant will definitely do her best."

Nangong Jin left Huanli Building almost as if escaping, his heart was never in such a panic as it is now!
Ning Ningyan, how exactly should this king treat you!
**********
When she woke up, it was already a day later, Liandu stood by her bed, and when she opened her eyes, Liandu said: "Miss Leng, thank you for saving us, Xiaocui and the others also asked me to thank you for them .”

Ning Ningyan didn't say much, but said lightly: "Bring the mirror, I want to see it."

Liandu obediently brought the mirror. The bronze mirror was chaotic, but the scar on her neck was clearly visible. She sighed and said, "Bring a piece of silk, I don't want to see this scar."

Before Liandu could speak, the door was gently pushed open, and the person who walked in was Yuexi. She was wearing a crescent white dress today, with a shy smile on her face.

"Sister Leng, do you still remember Yuexi?" She stood by the bed, her face flushed slightly, and she fiddled with the hem of her clothes awkwardly.

Ning Ningyan sat up and said with a smile: "Miss Yuexi is so cute, but anyone who has seen her will remember her forever."

Yuexi was a little happy when she heard the words, and her shyness was relieved a lot. She sat by the bed, took out a slender silk of her own, and said, "Didn't sister ask for silk just now? Look at this cute good?"

This is a piece of lavender silk, with two lines of small characters like plum blossoms embroidered on one corner of the silk, faintly visible: shallow crescent moon, clear my stream.

Yuexi noticed that Ning Yan was staring at the small characters, so she pointed to the small characters and said with a smile: "When brother Jin gave me silk, he ordered someone to embroider it on. Does it look good?"

Ning Ningyan nodded, feeling a sharp pain in her neck.

Yuexi said: "Since Sister Leng likes it, I'll give it to Sister Leng."

She frankly held the silk, and gently tied it on Ning Yan, covering the scar on the neck just right.

Ning Ningyan sighed secretly: This girl may not understand how much friendship is implied in this "Qingqing Woxi"!

She looked at Liandu and said, "Go and prepare some refreshments. The chrysanthemum soup I tasted last time was very good. I also prepare two bowls."

Liandu nodded and left the room.

Yuexi looked curious, "What is chrysanthemum soup? Why have I never heard of it?"

Ning Yan smiled lightly, and said: "There is nothing special about the ingredients of this stew, it just adds some secret chrysanthemum juice, it tastes refreshing, and it cools the fire and strengthens the spleen. It is the best drink in this weather. It couldn't be better."

"Made with chrysanthemums?" Yuexi pouted, "Brother Jin lied to me again, he said he would let me taste all the delicacies in the world, I don't want to let me taste all the delicacies in this mansion."

This Nangong Jin is really considerate of Yuexi, it is hard to imagine that such a ruthless King Jing'an would give a woman silk and even search for delicacies all over the world for her.

This Yuexi, is it really as simple as Nangong Jin's adopted sister?

Ning Ningyan was puzzled.

Not long after, Liandu had already delivered chrysanthemum soup and almost, which were served in exquisite dishes and placed on the low couch facing the window in the room.

Ning Yan washed her cough a little, and then invited Yuexi to sit by the window.

Yuexi saw that Ning Yan was moving freely and didn't look very painful, so she moved closer to Ning Yan and looked at it, and said, "I heard that brother Jin hurt you with a sword, why don't you feel pain?"
