Below the clock tower, in the pavilion.
Rubbing her dizzy head, Ning Shu opened her eyes with difficulty. She opened her mouth but couldn't make a sound for a long time. Only when the warm tea was brought to her lips and she swallowed mouthful by mouthful, did she gradually regain consciousness.
"Forsythia, Zigui? Why are you here? "Ning Shu called out with a hoarse voice.
Seeing that she had woken up, Forsythia put the empty cup to the side in surprise. But when she looked carefully at her appearance, tears almost fell, "Miss, why didn't you keep your word? Yesterday morning, we had a good talk. This servant prepared a table of delicious food for you to eat at the fu tonight. In the end, we didn't see you the entire night. This servant was very worried and pulled Zigui to the Supreme Court to ask. The Supreme Court said that you went to the docks, so we ran to the docks. The people at the docks said that there was a fire just now and a handsome official was seriously injured. We heard the description and thought it was you, so we quickly ran to the medical hall. Only then did we know that it was Official Tan. The two of us ran all over the capital before we met that little brother called Tian Wen. After asking him, we rushed here to find you. Miss, how are you? Your complexion is so bad, and there are dark circles under your eyes. This servant doesn't want to scold you, but you don't cherish yourself too much! If the junzhu knew you were like this in prison, I don't know how distressed she would be. Do you think you are made of iron? "
Ning Shu smiled and wiped away the golden beads on her face. She comforted, "Aren't I, your Miss, fine? It's just that I was too anxious to investigate the case and didn't sleep the entire night. Coupled with the heat, I fell asleep for a while. Now that I've slept, I'm much better. Don't worry, although your Miss is not made of iron, there is a good saying: A scourge lives for a thousand years. I haven't done enough scourge in this world, I haven't eaten enough good food, and my little beauty Forsythia hasn't been doted on enough. "
Forsythia was amused and angry by her, "Miss! Keep talking nonsense, I'm not talking to you anymore! "
Ning Shu pinched the tip of her nose and smiled as she turned to look at Zi Gui, who was silently wiping away the sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief. She said softly, "Don't worry, my good Zi Gui. I'm fine."
Zi Gui's nose turned sour. He took her hand and wrote seriously on her palm, "Miss, I will never leave you again."
Ning Shu smiled and held her hand tightly in his palm, infinitely warm. "Okay, I won't leave you again." She suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, did you meet anyone else on your way here?"
Zi Gui could not answer and pulled Forsythia anxiously.
Forsythia said foolishly, "Of course, there are many guards on duty here. We didn't have a token when we came in, so we were almost stopped by the guards outside. Until a supervisor passed by and heard that we were your maidservants, he let us in."
Ning Shu bit her lip and said hesitantly, "I mean, other than those guards and eunuchs, was there anyone else? Was I lying in the pavilion alone at the time, and no one carried me down? "
The moment she fainted, she clearly felt that someone had appeared and helped her out. Then, that person used an incomparably gentle strength to pull her into an embrace and whispered in her ear. Furthermore, there seemed to be moist water droplets sliding down her cheeks and into her neck. That person was especially like Xiahou Qing.
Forsythia blinked her large watery eyes and said blankly, "You weren't in the pavilion at the time. We found you on the clock tower, fainted in the corner alone. We shouted for a long time, but there was no response. Then Zi Gui hurriedly carried you down and rested in the pavilion for a long time. Miss, I don't know who you are talking about, but other than us, there really was no one else. "
