Chapter 89 Cao Junjie's Underground Cave

Chapter 89 Cao Junjie’s underground cave

Hearing what Si Ning said, Mrs. Chen looked very anxious, "I was fine just now, why did I suddenly become ill?"

Suddenly fell ill!

Si Ning's eyes changed, and he quickly ran towards the rockery without even having time to explain to Chen, while Lu Lu followed suit.

As Si Ning ran, she cursed herself in her mind, why didn't she notice this just now.

Fever and headache are not considered emergencies. How could there be no warning in advance? When they were at the rockery just now, Yunting had no symptoms at all. How could she suddenly feel dizzy and headache? There must be something fishy in this.

Because she was worried about Yunting, Si Ning kept running her. She ran into the rockery and ran out of the rockery, but she didn't see Tian Zao in the garden outside the rockery?

Could it be? Si Ning frowned, hoping that she was thinking too much.

As I said before, the garden only has two entrances, one is the rockery, and the other is the Moon Gate where they came from.

After passing through the Moon Gate, Si Ning saw a man wearing a dark round-neck robe with embroidered bamboo patterns on the road ahead. Looking at the direction he was walking, Si Ning's eyes suddenly lit up. He seemed to have just walked out of the garden and said

Maybe he saw Yunting just now.

Si Ning quickly caught up and said, "Wait a moment, people in front, please wait a moment."

The man in front heard Si Ning's voice and stopped, but did not look back. Si Ning had no choice but to catch up, "Sorry, I want to..."

After seeing the man's face clearly, Si Ning's expression changed. Li Su asked, "Why is it you?"

Li Su listened to the undisguised disgust in Si Ning's mouth, and the corner of his lips curled up, "If I remember correctly, it was the princess who asked me to stop just now."

Si Ning was choked by Li Su and her mind cleared. She knew that now was not the time to talk about this, Yunting's matter was the most important thing.

"I want to ask you, did you see a maid just now, pestering a dizzy young lady? The young lady was wearing a bright green dress." Si Ning looked at Li Su longingly.

"I saw it, but the one who helped him was not a maid, but Cao Junjie, the legitimate son of Duke Dingguo."

After listening to what Si Ning said, and then comparing what he saw just now, Li Su still couldn't guess what happened.

"Cao Junjie." Si Ning looked ugly. She really regretted that those whips had not hit him at the polo match that day, otherwise he would have been paralyzed on the boat now, unable to control his food and clothing.

"My lord, have you seen where they went?" Si Ning asked hurriedly.

Although Si Ning asked, seeing her panicked look, he opened his lips lightly and said, "Tell you, what are the benefits of me."

"You said, as long as I can do whatever you say, help me find Yunting first." There were tears in the corners of Si Ning's eyes.

"Don't forget that you owe me a request." Li Su turned around and walked back, "They were in the garden just now."

"In the garden?" Si Ning hurriedly followed Li Su.

But after listening to Li Su's words, he felt a little suspicious. Li Su said that he had just seen Yunting in the garden. At that time, he was on the other side of the rockery and did not see anyone coming out of the rockery.

With Li Su in front and himself behind, can Cao Junjie still be able to lead Yunting as a shield?

Soon they returned to the garden. The garden was full of flowers and fragrant, but it was deserted. There were no birds, let alone people.

"Are you really sure you saw Yunting just now? You saw it wrong, right?" Si Ning looked at the empty garden and was very suspicious of Li Su's words.

Li Su did not answer Si Ning's words, but stepped into the flower garden in the southwest corner. There were not many flowers and plants, only a shallow layer of turf, but because it was located inside and there were other flowers outside, it was so close.

From a distance, you can't even see the southwest corner. There are no flowers, only grass.

Li Su did see Cao Junjie in the garden just now. He was indeed holding a woman. Although the woman's face could not be seen clearly, it was certain that she was wearing a bright green dress.

Behind Cao Junjie was a servant, also holding a woman in his arms.

There were too many ghosts in the big house. He was just an invited guest. He didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he just glanced at them and turned around to leave.

However, he still noticed that their direction was the southwest corner of the garden.

Si Ning didn't react at first when she saw the turf, but when she saw the neat cuts on the turf, she understood.

"Open it quickly, I want to go down and rescue Yunting." Si Ning said and was about to step forward and open the partition on the ground.

Li Su glanced at her and said nothing, but helped him push open the turf partition.

After opening the partition, there is a dark cave entrance below, but fortunately there is a ladder under the cave entrance, at least there is no need to climb a rope ladder, it is simpler.

Si Ning wanted to rescue Yunting as soon as possible, but she didn't have time to think about it. As soon as the entrance to the cave appeared, she had to dive in headfirst.

Luzhu hurriedly stopped her and said, "Princess Princess, let me let your slaves explore the way."

"No, I'll do it myself." Si Ning couldn't do anything like letting others do it even though he knew he was in danger.

Li Su took out a fire seal from his arms and went down into the cave first.

"You don't have to come." Si Ning said dryly.

"You don't have to worry. There is a banquet held at Dingguo Palace today. It is impossible for Cao Junjie not to attend. He has no time to do anything inappropriate to your cousin."

Li Su knew that she was worried about Si Yunting's safety, so he deliberately told her in the hope that she could relax a little.

But despite what Li Su said, as long as he didn't see Si Yunting, Si Ning couldn't feel at ease.

Until he reached the last step, the fire in Li Su's hand did not go out. When he reached the bottom, it was not as dark as above. The cave was as bright as day, just like in the rockery. The walls around the cave were all inlaid with

Large fluorite.

At this time, there was no need for the fire seal. Li Su put out the fire seal and said, "Go this way."

Although there were two bifurcated roads upon entering, Li Su deduced from the traces on the ground that Cao Junjie and the others took the right road.

Si Ning has a very strange feeling towards Li Su and doesn't like him anymore, but at the moment she believes him.

Li Su led the way, and Si Ning and Lu Zhu followed behind. Si Ning just looked at Li Su's shadow on the ground, but did not say a word.

At a turning intersection, Li Su suddenly stopped and whispered, "Wait a minute."

"Just in front?" Si Ning also asked in a low voice.

Li Su didn't speak, just nodded to signal her.

Li Su, Si Ning and Lu Zhu didn't make a sound. It was extremely quiet for a while, but it was because of this silence that they could hear the conversation coming from the front.

"You keep an eye on them for me, and I'll come back later when the party is over.

If there is anything wrong, I will only ask you, do you understand?"

Si Ning recognized that it was Cao Junjie's voice, and the anger in his eyes almost turned into reality.
