Saintess, he is a handsome boy

=================================

After eating the vegetarian meal, Luo Ning took Nan Xiuzhu to wander around.Luo Ning comes here every year and is very familiar with this place.Thinking of Nan Xiuzhu throwing himself into the river because he couldn't speak well before, he felt guilty.So he brought Nan Xiuzhu to the town at the foot of the mountain. Nan Xiuzhu liked to play, so he would play with him and never obstruct him, as long as he was happy.

This town is not as prosperous as the street market in the imperial city, but it has some local characteristics.Nan Xiuzhu bought a lot of snacks, and the sweet-mouthed Nan Xiuzhu was very popular wherever he went, and everyone would stuff more things into his hands before leaving.

The things in Luo Ning's arms had piled up into a hill, and the way could hardly be seen.Fortunately, he is tall and strong, so he can last for a while.It's just that You, who was hiding in the dark, had no intention of helping at all, as if Luo Ning was Nan Xiuzhu's valet.

"Have some supper." Nan Xiuzhu pointed to the wonton stand beside him.

A bowl of beef wontons and a bowl of vegetable wontons.Xiao Er was walking this way with Nan Xiuzhu's wonton in hand, when someone accidentally bumped into him.Some of the broth was spilled on the little second hand, and the hot little second grinned.

Nan Xiuzhu looked over there: "How is your hand?"

Xiao Er pushed the wonton in front of Nan Xiuzhu: "It's okay, take your time."

Nan Xiuzhu looked at the bowl of clear soup and clear water in front of Luo Ning and frowned, seeing that it was not tasty.

"Stinky Monk." Nan Xiuzhu said unceremoniously, "You never eat meat, why are you so tall? Did you steal it behind your master's back?" He squinted his eyes, as if seeing through everything.

Luo Ning completely ignored the term "smelly monk", after all, this "smelly monk" was obviously much more polite than what he scolded Nan Xiuzhu.

"Some people grow meat even if they drink cold water, but I grow fat even if I only eat green vegetables. If I have a good physique, I can grow fat even if I eat anything." He glanced at Nan Xiuzhu's small body as he spoke.

So he said, "However, you can eat so much, why are you so thin and short?"

"I'm not short, it's because you are too tall." Nan Xiuzhu chewed the wonton, and said again: "I had two serious illnesses when I was young, and it's not easy to survive."

He picked up the bowl and drank the broth in one gulp.The bowl was not too big, but it was just enough to cover his face.The Adam's apple curled up with hot soup and rolled gently, in Luo Ning's eyes, it looked a bit pitiful, like a homeless kitten, who would gobble it up when it caught food, otherwise it would be hungry for the next meal.

Nan Xiuzhu is the son of Empress Nan, so he certainly wouldn't live a life without enough food and clothing.Luo Ning shook his head, denying his thoughts.

He also thought of Nan Xiuzhu saying that he had suffered two serious illnesses.The children of the royal family, apart from congenital deficiencies, rarely suffer from serious illnesses.Unless... was secretly persecuted.But Emperor Nanzhao seems to have only one wife, Empress Nan, and there are no female relatives in the harem, so how could someone harm Nan Xiuzhu?Can't figure it out.

A white little milk cat appeared behind Nan Xiuzhu in due course. There was some freshly spilled broth in the potholes on the ground. The little milk cat must be very hungry, and the soup was full of mud and sand, and he ate it.

There was some warmth on Luo Ning's face, and he was about to give the little milk cat the remaining wontons and soup in his bowl.He just stood up, but suddenly stopped.

I saw the little milk cat stiffened, lying on the ground and convulsed, foaming at the mouth, and lost its breath after a while.

Luo Ning's face turned pale, he looked at Nan Xiuzhu, and asked nervously: "Are you...do you feel unwell?"

"Yes." Nan Xiuzhu smiled faintly, "I'm full."

Seeing Luo Ning's solemn expression, Nan Xiuzhu followed his gaze and couldn't help frowning.His wontons are poisonous?What about Luo Ning?

He looked at Luo Ning and seemed to be fine.

When the two returned to Qingxin Nunnery again, they had two more bowls in their hands.Luo Ning asked the accompanying imperial physician to examine the two bowls carefully, and found that only Nan Xiuzhu's bowl was poisonous.

"It's a highly poisonous, colorless, odorless, and condenses into a white powder after drying. It looks like a poisonous weed native to southern Xinjiang. The veteran has to go back to the palace to read some medical books."

The imperial physician pointed to the bottom and side wall of the bowl, there was only a little bit left, the rest was probably drunk by Nan Xiuzhu.

Luo Ning pulled Nan Xiuzhu nervously, "Feel the pulse."

The imperial physician took the pulse, and twisted his brows into a Sichuan character, "Second prince's pulse..."

"How?" Luo Ning asked.

The imperial physician looked at Nan Xiuzhu, and Nan Xiuzhu had a frank face: "But it's okay to say."

"It is stated in ancient medical books that some people in this world are different from ordinary people..." There are too many, I can't say any more.Having been an imperial physician for 50 years, how to live a stable life until retirement is a science.

"In short, the Second Prince is safe, His Highness King Ning can rest assured."

Knowing that Nan Xiuzhu was not poisoned, Luo Ning didn't think about why he was fine for a moment.Right now, he is worried about who is going to kill Nan Xiuzhu.

Poisonous weeds in southern border... Southern border... There is only one Nan Xizhu in Nanzhao, but he is Nan Xiuzhu's elder brother, so he should not harm him.Who else?

Nan Xiuzhu looked calm, as if he wasn't the one who was poisoned.After returning to the room and sitting quietly for a while, Nan Xiuzhu said lightly: "What do you think?"

The black-clothed young man hanging from the beam came quietly, stood beside Nan Xiuzhu, and said: "I deliberately used the poisonous weeds in the southern border, I'm afraid I wanted to divert attention. Therefore, the person who poisoned should be in Donglin Kingdom , watching not far from you."

After a long while of silence, You suddenly half-kneeled in front of Nan Xiuzhu, holding his hand with lowered eyes, "Master." His tone was full of love and piety.

Nan Xiuzhu smiled lightly, held his hand instead, and said, "You, it's just you and me, you don't have to call me master. You know, we grew up together, and in my heart, I have always regarded you as an older brother .”

You were silent for a while, and was pulled up by Nan Xiuzhu to sit beside him. Nan Xiuzhu said again: "You and Ye are both my elder brothers."

You were at a loss, he had admired Nan Xiuzhu for a long time and wanted to confess, but because of the disparity in status, he couldn't say it anyway.

The door was pushed open at this moment.Regarding Nan Xiuzhu, Luo Ning had a habit of entering without knocking on the door.The reason is to blame Nan Xiuzhu himself, who used to secretly take girls back to the palace to drink and have fun, and was discovered several times.Later, Luo Ning liked to make surprise inspections. Of course, he couldn't knock on the door in surprise raids.This habit has been preserved until now.

Luo Ning hugged the pillow and quilt, and was stunned by the intimate behavior of the two.His usually calm eyes trembled slightly, and he put on a smile as if nothing had happened.

"I couldn't poison you before, I'm afraid someone will assassinate you at night. I... am here to protect you."

Luo Ning put down the quilt and looked at Nan Xiuzhu.

You had already stood up at this time, and stepped back squarely.

Nan Xiuzhu said: "No need, it's enough to have seclusion."

Is seclusion enough?For some reason, Luo Ning felt a little uncomfortable, so he thoughtlessly said to You: "Go out, I don't need you here for now."
