"A Ning...A Ning..."

The call is gentle and lingering, lest it disturb his sweet dream.

A smile spread across her lips, and Chu Yuning slowly opened her eyes, only to see Lu Zhongshu wearing a moon-white dress, with bright lanterns shining behind her.

The man patted him on the back and said with a smile, "But tired? Why didn't he fall asleep after half of the show?"

On the stage, the Nuo man with raised eyebrows was singing "Cool night is far away". He remembered that it was the opening of the most famous Yuejia troupe in the capital.

It's just that he was too tired and became confused after a while.

"If you're extremely tired, you might as well go back to your residence earlier." Lu Zhongshu said: "The Yue family class just left Beijing after the new year. It's okay for us to come back another day."

The breeze disturbed the lanterns, and the candle flames were crimson, jumping and swaying among the lamps, reflecting a smear of blood on his moon-white skirt in a trance.

The Nuo man was still singing, with a mournful voice, as if trying to break the mind of the viewer.

"And I'm so happy that the stars are shining, and the clouds and mist cover me for a moment..."

She sang really well.Chu Yuning couldn't help but look towards the stage.

Looking back again, I saw a blood hole suddenly appeared in Lu Zhongshu's heart, and the blood gurgled down with a fishy smell, instantly soaking his lower clothes.

He looked down, sighed softly, and said, "A Ning, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back."

"Suddenly the wind blew the leaves and fell,... and I heard the mournful cry of apes... I couldn't get out of the ancient road in front of the mountain."

Chu Yuning trembled all over, and when she opened her mouth, she was lost in the sound of drums and drums: "...why can't you go back?"

"I'm leaving, Ah Ning."

"Where are you going?!" Chu Yuning hurriedly stretched out her hand, only to see him tap his toes and retreat, "Where are you going?! Don't go! I won't allow it!"

Lu Zhongshu smiled dotingly, and shook his head lightly at him.

Behind him, at some point, there was a dark and wide open door. Behind the door was a faint river, and a stone bridge spanned it.

Chu Yuning's eyes suddenly went dark, and she stood up abruptly, "Lu Zhongshu!"

The man just gave him a deep look and slowly turned his back.

"Lu Zhongshu...Lu Zhongshu!"

Chu Yuning pushed aside the table and chairs beside her, and ran towards him with all her might, but there were countless hands out of thin air behind her, firmly holding him in place.

"Lu Zhongshu... Ah Yue——!"

He tried his best, but he couldn't break free after all. He could only see the man drifting away, and half of his body disappeared behind the door.

The original hustle and bustle faded away, and in the vast night, only a lingering sound came from the stage——

I want to kiss Mengyao, I want to kiss Mengyao...

Chu Yuning lay on the ground, looking at the closed door, and murmured: "Ah Yue..."

"A Yue...A Yue...!"

"Ah Ning! You are awake!"

Chu Yuning suddenly opened her eyes, only to see the silver-hooked silk tent in front of her, and the surroundings were very quiet.

...Where is this?

Seeing that the situation was wrong, the person at the side called again: "A Ning?"

He heard the sound and looked, unable to regain his senses for a moment: "... Sanxi?"

"It's me." Sanxi said: "Is there any discomfort? Pingyi's three-legged cat kung fu, what about hand knives, but don't make any good or bad chops..."

I mean...?

Chu Yuning blinked, and suddenly jumped up from the couch, grabbed his front, and asked, "How is he? Where is he now? Ah?!"

Sanxi naturally understood, with a look of embarrassment on his face, he said: "Little prince, he..."

"How is he?" Chu Yuning said anxiously, "Say it!!"

"The little prince's injury is not serious." Sanxi gritted his teeth, and confessed: "At the moment, he is bandaging the front, Imperial Physician Yuan and two other medical officers are together, you..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Chu Yuning let go of his hand, turned his head and ran out.

"Hey!" He hurriedly said, "Ah Ning, put on your shoes and clothes!"

The east chamber was not too far from the side hall. When Chu Yuning arrived, she saw a servant come out of the inner room in a hurry, with a basin of blood in his hand, and a blood-stained white cloth draped around the edge.

His heart skipped a beat, and he almost staggered into the door.

Er Xi was waiting outside the inner room door, raised his eyes and saw him, nodded slightly, and wanted to report in.

Chu Yuning hurriedly grabbed him, and hissed, "What's wrong with him?"

Erxi said: "Shi Ziyu/body doesn't allow us to talk about it, if I tell Shi Zi, you can ask yourself."

"He... is he still awake?"

Erxi nodded, turned around and said, "My lord, Mr. Chu is here."

There was a soft sound inside, and then a male voice was heard: "Your Majesty!"

Then came Lu Zhongshu, who said in a false voice, "Ah Ning."

Chu Yuning was shocked, and pushed the door open before thinking too much.

The room was warm and warm, Lu Zhongshu was surrounded by medical officers, the situation was not clear, only bloodstains were dripping on the ground, which was extremely glaring.

Standing outside the crowd, Chu Yuning suddenly felt timid.

"Ah Ning," Lu Zhongshu said, "come closer, let me see you."

His panting was extremely low, but it still flowed into Chu Yuning's ears clearly.

Chu Yuning stepped forward slowly, and saw that his upper body was covered with wound medicine, but the wound was ferocious, and his face was like gold paper, all the blood on his lips was gone, obviously he looked very bad.

Chu Yuning paused, unable to tell whether it was an illusion for a moment, as if he was in a dream again, and the overwhelming pain hit him, strangling him tightly.

He only heard a fragmented voice coming from his own mouth: "...Are you leaving?"

Lu Zhongshu was taken aback, and smiled wryly: "I am like this now, where am I going?"

However, Chu Yuning turned a deaf ear to it, shook her head and asked again: "Are you leaving?"

This time he didn't wait for the other person to answer, and said to himself: "Don't go."

The room was silent, his eyes were empty, his face was bloodless, as if he had been haunted.

Lu Zhongshu looked at his color, suddenly felt blessed, waved to him, and said, "Come here."

Sure enough, he stepped forward and knelt down obediently.

Yuan Jizhi was eager to save people, and couldn't help saying: "My son..."

Lu Zhongshu didn't look at him, and ordered: "Stand back first."

Yuan Jizhi naturally refused, "The lower officials should take the son as the priority, and now the son has not been hurt..."

"Since that's the case, Imperial Physician Yuan will wait here, and you will step back." Lu Zhongshu didn't want to delay with him any longer, and after everyone had left the door, he touched Chu Yuning's hand tentatively.

Chu Yuning moved, but did not resist.

Lu Zhongshu coughed twice, seeing that his eyes were more worried, Fang said: "A Ning...my body, I naturally know...now I'm just afraid..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but saw that Chu Yuning's eyes were red, and she shed tears in an instant.

"If it's true... I have nothing else to ask but you to forgive me for all the past..."

"Stop talking, imperial physician, imperial physician..." Chu Yuning interrupted tremblingly, turned her head to bow down to Yuan Ji, and said in her mouth: "Sir, you have a good hand and kind heart, if you save him today, in the next life, you will be willing to be a cow and a horse with a grass ring." In return! Please sir..."

Yuan Jizhi stepped sideways, not accepting his gift, and said with a shaky hand: "My son speaks seriously, but my son is just..."

Before he could say clearly what "but" was, he heard Lu Zhongshu cough a few times, and the wound where the powder had been applied was bleeding again.

Chu Yuning was startled, and was about to continue begging, but he stopped her hand and said, "Ah Ning, you shouldn't answer me, but you still have to blame?"

"I don't blame, I don't blame." Chu Yuning hurriedly said, tears rolling down.

At this moment, he was completely focused on Lu Zhongshu alone, so he couldn't see what was behind him. Yuan Jizhi's face was sinking like water, and he hesitated to speak several times, but he never opened his mouth.

Lu Zhongshu said again: "A few days ago, I asked the emperor to give me a marriage... I was afraid that you would not like it, so I didn't dare to speak... Now it seems, it's okay, you don't want to, don't Wish to stay with me, if I am not here, I can let you go back..."

"No...that's not the case..." Chu Yu couldn't help shaking her head, her eyes blurred, "I never...never..."

His voice was choked up, and he said with difficulty: "... Jinu is still young, if you are not here, how should he deal with himself? You said let me go back, I, I...

"—Where am I going?"

After all, he couldn't hold on any longer, so he fell down on the side of the bed and wept softly.
