Emperor Shen's charming wife

Chapter 7: Flower shadows are lush, and every step is startling

A few days later, Ning Xue suddenly "fell ill" and sent someone to ask Ning Yao to visit her. Ning Yao heard about this and couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Ning Xue must be planning some shameful conspiracy again. However, she still decided to visit her. After all, she wanted to see what Ning Xue was up to this time. Ning Yao and her confidants walked through the winding palace corridors and came to Ning Xue's bedroom. As soon as she stepped into the bedroom, she heard Ning Xue's delicate voice: "Sister, you are finally here. I miss you so much." Ning Xue pretended to be weak and lay on the bed, her face pale, looking at Ning Yao with tears in her eyes. Ning Yao laughed in her heart. Ning Xue's acting skills were really getting better and better, almost catching up with the famous actors in the troupe. "Sister, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly fall ill?" Ning Yao asked with pretended concern, her face full of worry. "Sister, I don't know what happened to me. I suddenly fell ill." Ning Xue said in a tender voice, tears welling up in her eyes and frowning, as if she was in great pain. Ning Yao frowned slightly and thought to herself. She knew that Ning Xue must be pretending to be sick, and she must not easily believe Ning Xue's words. "Sister, I am also worried about you. You must take good care of yourself." Ning Yao smiled slightly, her eyes full of genuine concern. "Sister, I miss you so much. Can you accompany me more?" Ning Xue said coquettishly, her eyes full of expectation, as if she really regarded Ning Yao as a support. Ning Yao sneered in her heart. This Ning Xue really didn't repent. However, she decided to stay and accompany Ning Xue to see what new tricks she could play. "Okay, sister will stay to accompany you." Ning Yao smiled and nodded, her eyes full of tenderness. Ning Yao sat on the bed and was chatting with Ning Xue. Suddenly, Ning Xue "fainted" without any signs. Ning Yao was startled and stood up in a hurry to check on Ning Xue's condition. At this moment, a noisy and chaotic sound suddenly came from the room. Ning Yao's heart tightened and she turned around quickly, only to find that the confidant who was originally guarding the side had disappeared. She secretly cried out that it was not good, and quickly stood up and walked quickly to the door, intending to leave this place of trouble. However, as soon as she walked to the door, a group of people in black clothes blocked her way. "Who are you?" Ning Yao looked solemn and her eyes were full of vigilance. "Miss Ning, we are just following orders, and I hope you won't embarrass us." The leading black-clothed man spoke in a low voice. "Following orders? Whose orders?" Ning Yao asked coldly. "You don't need to know this." The black-clothed man still spoke in a low tone. Ning Yao thought to herself that this must be Ning Xue's trick behind the scenes. "What do you want to do?" Ning Yao asked again in a deep voice. "Miss Ning, we are just following orders, and I hope you won't embarrass us." The black-clothed man repeated this sentence. Ning Yao sneered in her heart. She knew that these people were instructed by Ning Xue and would never let her go easily. Ning Yao sat by the bed and chatted with Ning Xue for a while. Suddenly, Ning Xue closed her eyes without any warning and fell down. Ning Yao was shocked and shouted loudly: "Come on, go and get the imperial physician!" Not long after, the imperial physician hurried over. After a diagnosis, the imperial physician said solemnly: "Miss Ning Xue's condition has worsened. She needs to rest in absolute silence and no one else can disturb her." Ning Yao frowned and had no choice but to leave first. As soon as Ning Yao left, Ning Xue, who had "fainted", sat up from the bed in an instant. There was no sign of weakness on her face. She was full of smugness in her eyes. It turned out that she pretended to be sick this time in order to steal the important documents that Ning Yao was carrying when she was not prepared. This document was related to the stability of the border. Once lost, the consequences would be disastrous. Ning Yao returned to her residence and found that the file was missing. She was immediately anxious and sent people to search everywhere. However, Ning Xue had planned it in advance and hid the file in an extremely secret place. The people sent by Ning Yao searched all possible places and could not find it at all.
