Mr. Zong grabs Nangong Ning, who is about to fall, and pulls her out. "Naturally, you can see it," he
With the help of and being pulled by Mr. Zong, Nangong Ning is walking out of the Mansion.
Before she reaches the gate, Nangong Ning finds something is wrong, because she hears a lot of noises outside the gate and her face changes.
When she steps out of the gate of the Mansion and sees a crowd of people in front of her, Nangong Ning suddenly understands the anger of Jun Qianye.
If she were him, she would be angry, too.
In front of the gate of the Regent Mansion is a wide main street. Because the Mansion occupies a large area, there are no other honorable residences around. It is always very quiet there.
But now, there are so many people there, just as the saying goes, there are mountain people, mountain sea.
As soon as Nangong Ning is outside the gate, the moderate lower noise suddenly increases its volume, becoming louder, like a wave of sea, sweeping everything in an instant.
“Look, Miss Nangong is coming out! It is true that she has been in the Regent Mansion all this time. No wonder the Lord of the Nangong family comes here to look for her!”
"Yes, it seems that Miss Nangong has been detained in the Regent Mansion since the Emperor bestowed her to the Regent in marriage."
"Don't talk nonsense about being detained! Be careful not to be overheard by the Mansion guards in case you would be caught and spanked there!"
“Fie! Fie! I misused the word. It is the Regent who wants to cultivate feelings with his princess to be in advance. But it is inappropriate to keep her in the Mansion. After all they haven’t got married yet.”
"So, now the Lord of the Nangong family has come to get Miss Nangong back in person. It seems that the Lord loves Miss Nangong very much!"
…
Nangong Ning has a long face when she hears what they say. Her eyebrows are twisted. Now she has a deeper understanding of Jun Qianye’s anger。
She came to know the true face of Nangong Qingyao, the vicious woman, when she was on the cliff of the Toxic Abyss the other day. And therefore, she came to know better the so-called Lord of the Nangong family, her uncle, as well as his so-called love of her.
It is not because Jun Qianye “detains” her that she stays in the Regent’s Mansion, nor does she intend to hang on there herself. It is because force majeure keeps coming that keeps her stay there.
But why are these people saying that Jun Qianye detains her?
How come that they should talk about like that?
They must have been incited, or there must be somebody who deliberately spreads these rumors, which one passes to another, so that the crowds of people come to the gate of the Mansion in order to watch fun, which in deed “humiliates” Jun Qianye.
These rumors are very vicious, such as Jun Qianye detains Nangong Ning and cultivates feelings with her, targeting at Jun Qianye and the Regent’s Mansion.
At the thought of Jun Qianye's facial expression at that time, Nangong Ning suddenly realizes that it is very kind of him not to strangle her to death at that moment.
You know, he is the Regent of the State of Dongli, noble and honorable. But now, without a reason, because of her, he has got a "stigma".
It seems that she must solve these troubles caused by herself now, otherwise, Weichu won't let her go, let alone Jun Qianye.
Just at this moment, a middle-aged man gets off the carriage when the curtain of the carriage in the middle of the crowd is lifted.
“Ning!”
Hearing somebody’s calling her in an urgent tone, Nangong Ning feels a chill in her heart, a wave of memories coming into her mind which do not belong to her.
She is not the original Nangong Ning. Before she meets Nangong Luo, she knows the existence of this person, but her mind did not have a clear picture of the man. Now that he is in front of her, Nangong Ning feels that everything is clear.
Nangong Luo, aged 40, is the second son of the Nangong Aristocratic Family. Since the eldest son, Nangong Ze, is gone, he has become the master of the Nangong Family, and has to take care of Nangong Ning, his niece, who lost her parents' protection.
In the fragments of Nangong Ning’s memory, Nangong Luo has always been very "caring" for her. But now on reflection, she finds that his purpose of “caring for her” is to mislead her and make her a disabled person. If not, how could she, as the crown prince’ fiancée, know nothing about the long sexual relationship between Nangong Qingyao and Jun Zixuan.
"Uncle, why are you here?" says Nangong Ning, standing up straight, looking at him coldly.
Nangong Luo knows that Nangong Ning may have learnt everything, but he feels that with his understanding of her, he still has a chance to hoodwink her again.
After so many years of caring and raising Nangong Ning, he knows very well how naive and simple she is.
However, when he sees Nangong Ning standing there, up straight with clear cold eyes, he feels his legs trembling a little.
"Ning, you are here as expected. Although you have been bestowed to the Regent in marriage by the Emperor, how can you live here before getting married?"
The surface meaning of what he says is his caring for Nangong Ning, but in fact he criticizes her for her improper behavior, and at the same time, he puts a label on Jun Qianye vaguely.
“Uncle, how do you know that I live in the Regent Mansion?” asks Nangong Ning indifferently, with her lips hooked up and her eyebrows lifted slightly.
Nangong Luo’s facial expression freezes. He seems not to keep up with the pace of Nangong Ning.
"I…, I saw you just coming out of the Regent’s Mansion.”
Nangong Ning’s lip line slightly curves with an evil smile on her beautiful little face which he has never seen before.
“Your conclusion that I live in the Mansion because I just come out of the Mansion is too early to be reached. In other words, Uncle, you are desperately eager to ruin your niece’s fame， aren’t you?”
Hearing her blunt remark, Nangong Luo suddenly understands that Nangong Ning is not easy to coax now. But today he must bring this girl back to the Nangong Mansion, otherwise what he should do with another thing?
“Ning, don’t talk nonsense. I dote on you too much to deliberately ruin your fame.” On second thoughts, Nangong Ning decides to compromise with him for the time being.
With her arms folded and the corners of her mouth lifted, Nangong Ning smiles gently. But her uncle finds her smile chilling.
“If you are not, then stop talking nonsense from now,” says Nangong Ning.
"You ...? Ning!" Nangong Luo almost loses his temper. But when he thinks of the thing that he is going to do, he suppresses his anger and says, "Can you go home with me now?"
“I was going to go home just now, but thanks for your coming to meet me here.” Nangong Ning starts walking up to him with a faint smile on her face.
Jun Qianye asked her to get out and solve her own troubles. And she also thinks that these troubles are caused by her and she has to solve them by herself. Besides, she is now in the body of the original Nangong Ning, and, of course, she would take revenge for her.
When Mr. Zong sees that Nangong Ning is going to go with her uncle without any hesitation, he knows vaguely that what she tries to do is to divert the attention of the crowd from the Regent’s Mansion as soon as possible. He thinks to himself that Nangong Ning is indeed a girl of sense, but he could not help worrying about her safety.
"Miss Nangong, you...?"
Nangong Ning has got on the carriage, looking back at Mr. Zong and blinks her eye, saying, "Fat Old Man, please pass my massage to him."
"What?" Mr. Zong is stunned.
Nangong Ning smiles, and says two words, "Rest assured."
Mr. Zong looks puzzled, but Nangong Ning has already entered the carriage.
Nangong Luo is neglected on the side. His face is a little stiff.
Mr. Zong turns to look at him.
Nangong Luo's heart misses a jump. Although Mr. Zong is not somebody in the Mansion, he is well-known, for he is a medical saint as well as the private doctor for the Regent. And he plays an important role in the Mansion. Of course, Nangong Luo knows Mr. Zong.
"How are you, Mr. Zong," says Nangong Luo, making an obeisance by cupping one hand in the other before his chest.
Mr. Zong always wears a smile on his fat face, being amiable in front of Nangong Ning, who would never imagine Mr. Zong, at this moment, would have a face as cold as that of Jun Qianye.
He is a medical saint, which is well-deserved, and naturally has the imposing manner of a medical master.
"The master of the Nangong family, Miss Nangong now is the fiancée of our Lord, who is bestowed by the Emperor."
As soon as he finishes his words, Mr. Zong turns and enters the gate, not leaving Nangong Luo any chance to respond.
Nangong Luo feels the skin of his face shivers twice. Mr. Zong is telling him to remember Nangong Ning’s current identity.
Does he mean to shelter Nangong Ning?
The medical saint is Jun Qianye’s confidant. And maybe this is actually what Jun Qianye means.
Nangong Luo is confused at the time being.
However, on second thoughts, his own daughter is now the prince’s side concubine, and the prince is the crown prince of the State of Dongli. Suddenly, he feels rest assured, turns around and gets on the carriage.
Nangong Ning sits in the carriage, feeling carefree and relaxed.
"Uncle's purpose is to get me back to the Nangong Mansion. Now that you can withdraw the crowd of people in front of the gate, will you?” says Nangong Ning with a forced smile on her face and the corners of her mouth lifted up.
Nangong Luo’s heart misses a beat all of a sudden, and he responds, “What do you mean by saying that? The crowd of people there comes to watch fun spontaneously. They can go back if they like."
"Oh, is that so?" Nangong Ning doesn't want to be polite or indirect to Nangong Luo now, for Nangong Qingyao did not only marry the prince in her name but also wanted to kill her, of which her father could not get himself clearly out.
Nangong Luo nods his head, but his facial expression is still stiff. He wonders why Nangong Ning suddenly changes?
"Ning, you must trust me. I always do what you want."
Nangong Ning nods her head, not denying, "Yes, you do." That is his usual tactics of “killing someone by being kind to him or her”.
"The purpose of your being here today, uncle, is for me, and I don't think you want to really offend the Regent. After all, no one in the State of Dongli except the Emperor, dares to offend the Regent. Is that right?
Nangong Luo's heart thumps.
Of course, he dares not offend the Regent. The reason why he dares to do what he has done today is because he planned to put the blame on Nangong Ning. After all, he comes to the Regent’s Mansion in the name of welcoming her back home.
Even if the Regent wants to blame, the blame would not fall on his head, for he has nothing to do with it on the surface. When he finishes doing the thing he wants, no matter how seriously Jun Qianye punishes Nangong Ning, “the scourge”, he would be happy to see that.
But what Nangong Ning now means is to tell him that he has offended the Regent. If he regards the regent as a fool, it must be he himself who is indeed a fool.
Indeed! Jun Qianye is too smart to be fooled. Nangong Luo is too smug. It is too easy for Jun Qianye to destroy him at least at present, for which the crown prince could do nothing.
He is annoyed and angrily glances at Nangong Ning, and then calls an attendant in, whispers a few words to him and the latter is dismissed. Soon the crowd outside melts away.
With a sneer on her face, Nangong Ning snorts faintly.

Nangong Ning doesn't want to be polite or indirect to Nangong Luo now, for Nangong Qingyao did not only marry the prince in her name but also wanted to kill her, of which her father could not get himself clearly out.Nangong Luo nods his head, but his facial expression is still stiff. He wonders why Nangong Ning suddenly changes?"Ning, you must trust me. I always do what you want."Nangong Ning nods her head, not denying, "Yes, you do." That is his usual tactics of killing someone by being kind to him or her."The purpose of your being here today, uncle, is for me, and I don't think you want to really offend the Regent. After all, no one in the State of Dongli except the Emperor, dares to offend the Regent. Is that right?Nangong Luo's heart thumps.Of course, he dares not offend the Regent. The reason why he dares to do what he has done today is because he planned to put the blame on Nangong Ning. After all, he comes to the Regent's Mansion in the name of welcoming her back home.Even if the Regent wants to blame, the blame would not fall on his head, for he has nothing to do with it on the surface. When he finishes doing the thing he wants, no matter how seriously Jun Qianye punishes Nangong Ning, the scourge, he would be happy to see that.But what Nangong Ning now means is to tell him that he has offended the Regent. If he regards the regent as a fool, it must be he himself who is indeed a fool.Indeed! Jun Qianye is too smart to be fooled. Nangong Luo is too smug. It is too easy for Jun Qianye to destroy him at least at present, for which the crown prince could do nothing.He is annoyed and angrily glances at Nangong Ning, and then calls an attendant in, whispers a few words to him and the latter is dismissed. Soon the crowd outside melts away.With a sneer on her face, Nangong Ning snorts faintly.
