After quickly wearing the second male lead who was rejected

Chapter 251 Is this what a person in solitary confinement looks like? (1)

Gu Chang spent half an hour drawing some talisman papers. After folding the talisman papers into small triangular packages, Gu Chang distributed the talisman papers to Yin Li and the other two, asking them to keep the folded talisman papers close to their bodies.

It's just that Ling Xiaosu didn't come tonight. They were all seasoned people, and Gu Chang didn't really need to sleep now, so after a night, they were all in good spirits.

However, in order to ensure the physical strength of Yin Li and the other two, Gu Chang decided to let them take turns to rest.

So the person who protected Gu Chang when he went out today was Mingtang.

Gu Chang went out and headed towards Guangyuan Temple. He now had to find a way to defeat Ling Xiaosu quickly.

Ling Yiyan's situation is being monitored by the Night Shadow Guards in the palace. If there is any emergency, priority will be given to protecting Ling Yiyan alive.

On the other side, Nie Qingxue, who had been in a coma for a long time, woke up.

Caiju just walked into Nie Qingxue's room carrying a basin of hot water. She turned and walked towards the bed and saw Nie Qingxue sitting on the bed.

Caiju's face lit up with joy. She placed the basin of water on the table beside her, then walked towards Nie Qingxue happily, "Miss, Miss, how do you feel?"

Nie Qingxue, who was sitting on the bed, heard Caiju's voice. Her eyes, which had originally been shining with coldness, quickly became gentle, "Caiju, how long have I been sleeping?"

Caiju spread the bed curtains apart, gathered them together, and hung them on the golden hooks on either side of the bed. Then she answered Nie Qingxue's question, "It's been about two days, Miss. Let me wipe your face with a handkerchief first. I'll also apply medicine to the wound on your forehead."

"Go." Nie Qingxue raised her right hand and touched the gauze wrapped around her head with her fingertips. She half-closed her eyes, with a look of deep thought in her eyes.

Caiju brought the basin of hot water to the bracket near the bed. After placing the basin on the tripod, Caiju took the soft cloth and dipped it into the hot water.

Caiju estimated that the water temperature would not be very hot, so she picked up the cloth for wiping her face and wrung it dry before turning around to wipe Nie Qingxue's face.

After washing her face, Caiju began to remove the gauze from Nie Qingxue's forehead.

"Cai Ju, did Daddy...say anything?" Nie Qingxue asked in a low voice.

Caiju blinked, then gently and carefully removed the gauze wrapped around Nie Qingxue's head before answering Nie Qingxue's question, "The master punished the Second Young Miss and Concubine Chen with confinement, and said that these matters should be discussed after you wake up."

"It's rare that someone speaks a human language." Nie Qingxue murmured to herself, her voice so soft that only she could hear it.

Caiju didn't hear clearly, and subconsciously asked, "Miss? What did you just say?"

"No, you continue." Nie Qingxue closed her eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief. She raised her right hand and placed it over her heart. She had to thank Aunt Chen for that push, which allowed her to regain control of her body.

However, "she" is ultimately a hidden danger.

Caiju felt that the eldest daughter was a little strange. After all, according to past experience, the young lady would definitely scream and shout after waking up after being injured. If she knew that the person who hurt her was the second young lady or Chen Yi Niang, the eldest daughter would be even more angry.

The eldest lady now seems too calm.

Could it be that he figured it out after this incident?

Let’s hope so.

Cai Ju put these thoughts behind her. These were not things a maid should think about. A young lady was a young lady. No matter what happened, she was the eldest young lady of the Nie family.

At this time, Dongmei walked into the room.

Caiju noticed her coming and said happily, "Dongmei, go tell the master that the young lady has woken up!"

Dongmei's face showed some hesitation. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something. But when she heard Caiju say that, she forced a smile and said, "I'll go right away."

After saying that, Dongmei turned around and left quickly.

Nie Qingxue noticed the expression on Dongmei's face, and she was thinking: What could make Dongmei look so sad?

About a quarter of an hour later, Nie Qianyuan hurried over. He strode across the courtyard gate and said anxiously, "Nannan, are you feeling unwell? Do you want Daddy to call a doctor for you?!"

Nie Qingxue, who had already changed the medicine, was sitting on the bed. When she heard Nie Qianyuan's voice in the yard outside, she asked Caiju to stop Nie Qianyuan first, "Caiju, let him wait outside first. I need to change clothes."

Caiju was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, Miss."

Caiju walked out of the room quickly and stopped Nie Qianyuan outside the door, "Master, the young lady said she wants to change clothes first, so she asked you to wait outside for a while."

Hearing this, Nie Qianyuan frowned and said in a deep voice, "Is Nannan feeling unwell?"

"Dad, I'm fine. You sit in the yard for a while, I'll be there soon." Nie Qingxue's voice came from the room.

When Nie Xuanyuan heard this, he had no choice but to say, "Nannan, Daddy will wait for you outside. If you feel unwell, you must tell Daddy!"

So Nie Xuanyuan sat down on the rattan chair in the yard.

Caiju and Dongmei walked into the room together and closed the door.

Nie Qingxue had already gotten off the bed. She raised her eyes, her cold eyes sparkling with a breathtaking beauty. Caiju and Dongmei subconsciously stopped in their tracks.

"Come here." Nie Qingxue's tone was flat, as if she didn't care about the two maids' misconduct.

Caiju and Dongmei looked at each other secretly, and then said in unison: "Yes, Miss."

A quarter of an hour later, Nie Qingxue, who had changed her clothes, walked out of the room.

She was wearing a black dress with butterfly patterns embroidered with silver thread on her shoulders. A belt was tied around her slender waist, and the hem of her skirt fell naturally, swaying like butterfly wings when she walked.

Before, Nie Qingxue always wore white clothes or light-colored dresses. This was the first time Nie Qianyuan saw her dressed like this.

"Nannan, why are you wearing all black?" Nie Qianyuan frowned subconsciously.

Nie Qingxue chuckled, "Dad, don't you think looking at me like this is very imposing?"

"That's true..." Nie Qianyuan agreed with this point.

"Let's go, Dad." Nie Qingxue took the lead and walked in front.

Nie Xuanyuan asked with a hint of doubt: "Where are we going?"

"My sister and Aunt Chen have been locked up for so long, I think they must be suffocating." Nie Qingxue's voice was crisp, like pearls falling to the ground.

This way of speaking made Nie Qianyuan dazed for a moment.

When he looked at Qingxue's back who was walking in front of him, he seemed to see the shadow of Tu Liuli in Nie Qingxue.

When Nie Qingxue and Nie Xuanyuan came to the yard where Nie Huaili lived, they heard laughter coming from inside.

Nie Xuanyuan's face darkened, while Nie Qingxue looked normal.

She had long guessed that Aunt Chen and Nie Huaili would not really be put in solitary confinement. After all, Nie Qianyuan was reluctant to let them suffer.

When the servant was about to open the door, Nie Qingxue raised her foot and kicked the gate open.

In the yard, Nie Huaili was wearing a cute pink dress and holding a handkerchief to catch the butterflies flying among the flowers and plants on the wall.

Xia Qing knelt at Chen Shuyi's feet, lowered her head and massaged her legs.

Another maid, Chun Ye, followed Nie Huaili and helped her block Butterfly's position.

"How shameful!" Nie Xuanyuan was furious when he saw this scene. He shouted angrily, "Is this how you look like someone in solitary confinement?!"

Hearing Nie Qianyuan's voice, Chen Shuyi immediately stood up and turned to face Nie Qianyuan. She lowered her eyebrows slightly, her eyes shining with tears, "Master..."

Nie Huaili also turned around, pursed her red lips, walked behind Chen Shuyi, and whispered: "Daddy..."

"No problem." Just as Nie Qianyuan was about to speak, Nie Qingxue clapped her hands together and spoke before Nie Qianyuan could. She walked towards Chen Shuyi, a cold glint in her eyes.

"You...what are you going to do?!" Seeing that Nie Qingxue came with ill intentions, Chen Shuyi put away her pitiful look and became serious. She protected Nie Huaili behind her, as if Nie Qingxue would do something to hurt Nie Huaili the next moment.

Nie Qingxue smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. I didn't come here today to punish you. Instead, I came here to tell you something good, something you've always dreamed of, something you've always wanted but couldn't."

"Qingxue, are you confused? What nonsense are you talking about?" Chen Shuyi intuitively felt that the Nie Qingxue standing in front of her today was not the same Nie Qingxue as before, and she felt an inexplicable sense of unease in her heart.

"I have decided to let my sister marry Prince Duan." Nie Qingxue didn't look at Chen Shuyi. She glanced around and then said loudly.
