The beginning of the phoenix (6)

Mu Ruolan rubbed her neck, lifted the curtain and looked around a few times, and then said solemnly, "This matter is a long story, it's not safe here, if Yang Gongzi can trust me, please drive the carriage to the Yuelai Inn." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

He should have refused, after all, she was the cousin of the Zhou family, but looking at those clear and crystal eyes, he nodded and drove the carriage. He must be crazy. Maybe he had nothing to lose, all he had to do was the heart in his chest.

After a stick of incense, the carriage stopped at the back door of the Yuelai Inn, and immediately a small servant came out to drive the carriage away, obviously waiting for a long time.

In the dead of night, everything is silent.

Mu Ruolan held Yang Yong's hand, "Don't speak, follow me." ”

Jian frowned slightly, he stared at the hands of the two of them, and wanted to scold 'men and women don't kiss', it can be seen that her expression is calm and disapproving, so she has to sigh helplessly.

The two entered the southernmost Tianzi room on the second floor, Mu Ruolan gently closed the door and lit a candle, and the faint candlelight illuminated a hazy orange light and shadow in the huge room.

Yang Yongjing sat down at the round table, poured a cup of tea and poured it up, Mu Ruolan sat beside him, hanging her head slightly, and the dim firelight cast a faint shadow on her face.

After a while, she raised her eyes and said calmly, "Yang Gongzi is right, I am indeed waiting for you when I hide in the alley." ”

The tea was cold, sliding down his throat and stirring up a chill, and he squeezed the celadon cup, not looking at her, nor speaking.

After a moment of silence, Mu Ruolan sighed, "I know you don't believe me, after all, I'm their nominal cousin. ”

He raised an eyebrow, the titular cousin?

Seeing his doubts, the corners of her lips pulled up a wry smile, "I am not Miss Cousin of the Zhou family, and I am not related to the brothers and sisters of the Zhou family, the reason why General Zhou let me live in the General's Mansion as Miss Cousin is actually because of my mother." Speaking of this, her smile was even more bitter, "My mother is Mu Ziyan, the former No. 1 beauty in the capital......"

"What?" Yang Yong was stunned, "Then ...... you are"

Mu Ruolan nodded, "Yes, I am the daughter of Mu Ziyan and General Feiying, Feng Ruolan, in order to avoid people's eyes, now I take my mother's surname." ”

She turned out to be Feng Ruolan, the daughter of General Flying Eagle!

Yang Yong was shocked, his eyes stared at her without blinking, "Then how did you become Miss Cousin of the Zhou Mansion?" ”

Seven years ago, many people died in the palace rebellion, and it also changed the fate of many people. The Feng Mansion of that year was also like today's Yang Mansion, and was detained on trumped-up charges, raided and beheaded, and was destroyed overnight. General Eagle had a son and a daughter, both of whom disappeared in that accident, and he thought that they must be more than lucky, but he did not expect ......

Mu Ruolan smiled coldly, the smile on the corner of her mouth was like a blooming snowflake, "My mother is the first beauty in the capital, even if she marries and has children, there are many people who have coveted her, and Zhenyuan General Zhou Da is also one of them." ”

Yang Yong was stunned, "You mean ......"

The pair of clear eyes were as deep as the sea in an instant, and the eyes were instantly filled with mist, she said slowly, "After the Fengfu was copied, my mother escaped with me, and in the desperate situation of the city, my mother could only change her name and surname to devote herself to Zhou Da and become his outer room, while I became the cousin of the Zhou family, sending people under the fence." ”

Tears rolled down her eyes, and he reached for them, his rough fingertips touching her delicate cheeks, and a teardrop slipped between his fingers, reflecting a dazzling light in the candlelight.

"Don't cry......" he couldn't help but comfort her softly, and he had an urge to embrace her.

Mu Ruolan wiped away her tears indiscriminately, "I almost forgot about the serious matter after talking for a long time, Yang Gongzi, you have to leave the Holy Capital as soon as possible, they will not let you go, but you can't go through the city gate, there is an ambush by the Praetorian Guard." I've chartered this room, you can stay here, and then find a way to leave when the wind has passed, and then find a way to leave? She tore away a smile, her reddish eyes still sparkling, and in the faint candlelight, her face was beautiful and delicate.

Yang Yong is the son-in-law of a wealthy family, born with a golden spoon, since he was a child, he has been dressed in fine clothes and jade food since he was a child, and the maids who are surrounded by him are all first-class appearances, and there are countless daughters who love him, and it can be said that he grew up in a pile of beauties. But the young girl in front of him, with a smile and a word, inexplicably touched his heart. What's wrong with him? Actually moved by a little girl?

However, is he still qualified to love someone now?

"How do you know I'll be back home tonight?" He hid for many days, and appeared in the Zhenyuan General's Mansion when everyone thought that he had already escaped from Shengjing, and he had a chance to kill Zhou Yu tonight, but he had more important things to do, as soon as Zhou Yu died, his whereabouts would be revealed, and that thing might not be done.

It was not surprising that he would ask like this, Mu Ruolan pursed her lips and hesitated for a while before saying, "Gongzi should know that you are the only one in the Yang family who escaped arrest, maybe the emperor has no intention of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, but how can the Zhou family let you go, the son of the Yang family?" You stabbed Zhou Yu tonight but you were able to get out of the way, have you thought about the reason? ”

Yang Yong was stunned, and then heard her sneer and said, "Zhou, the Yang family is also a world friend, and they almost became in-laws, this is a well-known thing, if you die in the Zhenyuan General's Mansion, what will the people say, and how will the emperor view the Zhou family?" So Zhou Yu let you go, but he had already laid an ambush in Yang's mansion, as long as you go back, the Praetorian Guards can shoot you on the spot. Speaking of this, she paused, "I have lived in the Zhou Mansion for seven years, and I also have a few henchmen and slaves, tonight I got the news that Zhou Yu was stabbed, and immediately guessed that it was you who did it, although Zhou Yu let you go, but he sent people to follow you, and at the same time notified the Praetorian Guards to encircle and suppress you, I was guarding near the Yang Mansion to warn you, but I was a step late, fortunately, you escaped safely with high martial arts, otherwise ......"

Staring at the flickering candlelight, Yang Yong frowned and was silent, and suddenly asked after a while, "Why are you helping me?" ”

Mu Ruolan closed her eyes in pain, her thick curly eyelashes cast a shadow, and she was silent for a long time before she slowly opened her eyes, and said in a cold and calm voice, "Seven years ago, Zhou Da and the current queen mother conspired to change the palace, hijacked the former emperor to depose the prince, and set up King Wu as the prince. In order to protect me, my mother did not hesitate to commit herself to the enemy and live in humiliation. Now, they are doing their tricks again to eradicate dissidents, Lord Yang is a good person who is loyal to the monarch and loves the people, I can't watch his only remaining son-in-law die, you and I are sick and sympathetic, and today I am just doing my best. ”

The bloody storm seven years ago, the fire in Fenghe Palace, and hundreds of lives were all lost in the torrent of years.
