199 Chao Bai Is Missing?

After Kong Rui walked out of the room, she saw the procuress rushing over. “Something bad has happened! Something bad has happened!”

Kong Rui was already used to the procuress’ jumpy personality. She only asked calmly, “What happened again?”

“The Nie family has sent many people to search the city for a pair of siblings.” As the procuress spoke, she was waving her hands desperately, making her look even more nervous.

“The Nie family?” When Kong Rui heard this, she knew who the siblings the Nie family was looking for were.

It seemed that Nie Lin had realized that he had been deceived.

However, he didn’t know what the effect of the drug Chao Bai had left for him was.

When Kong Rui glanced behind her, she realized that Chao Bai hadn’t followed her out.

Kong Rui immediately felt a little baffled. Chao Bai had been acting a little strange. However, now wasn’t the time to analyze what was strange about Chao Bai.

“Since you rushed over in such a hurry, did the Nie family come looking?” Kong Rui watched as the procuress fanned herself with a gauze fan with an anxious expression.

The procuress paused for a moment before saying, “That’s not it…”

“Aristocratic families like the Nie family usually disdain to come to a place like Fragrant Garden” The procuress was very self-aware.

Kong Rui pursed her lips. “Then why did you rush over?”

The procuress’ eyes darted around before she said, “Master, although Fragrant Garden is not a prestigious place, once something big or small happens in the imperial capital, Fragrant Garden will definitely be the first to know! Previously, when Pavilion Master Zi Xuan was around, she instructed me to report any news to her immediately.”

“After you came, didn’t you say that I have to report any news to you immediately? Therefore, as soon as I received the news, I came to deliver the news to you!”

The procuress’ words made sense, but…

“Then why did you say something bad happened?”

The procuress immediately replied righteously, “The Nie family is one of the five great clans. Even in the Imperial Capital, they are very powerful. If they mobilize so many people to capture people this time, they will definitely make the people in the Imperial Capital uneasy. At that time, won’t it affect Fragrant Garden’s business? Wouldn’t that be bad?”

As Kong Rui looked at the procuress, she actually couldn’t refute her.

After asking the procuress to leave, Kong Rui returned to her room, but realized that Chao Bai had disappeared.

After Kong Rui took off her bamboo hat and sat on the chair, she suddenly felt a sense of disappointment.

…

“Young Master, there’s news from the palace. The queen wants you to meet her immediately!” A guard came to Nie Yin’s bed and whispered. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Nie Yin’s face was still gray and pale. He tried his best to prop himself up, but for some reason, he couldn’t exert any strength.

“Help me up!” Very dissatisfied with the unhelpful guard, Nie Yin shouted in a low voice.

If it was his previous guards…

As Nie Yin thought about this, he suddenly stopped.

The guard didn’t know what Nie Yin was thinking. He thought that the young master had stopped because he hadn’t used enough strength, so he immediately exerted strength and forcefully lifted Nie Yin’s body.

Nie Yin felt dizzy and almost fell onto the bed again. He grabbed the guard’s arm hard as he tried to suppress the dizziness.

After a while, the dizziness disappeared, and Nie Yin glared at the guard.

The guard didn’t understand and could only take two steps back aggrievedly while waiting for Nie Yin’s instructions.
