As the glass cup slowly moved away, six rose cakes the size of small oranges with pink petals on the top of the head were revealed, and the crispy yellow cake body lined with white jade dishes around the body looked pleasing to the eye.

It is rumored that Princess Jiahe is fond of desserts, and every time a new snack comes out of the imperial dining room, the first thing to be sent is definitely in Princess Jiahe's palace. While inviting Dongfang Rong, Ruan Liuyan was also observing the expression on her face. Sure enough, the moment she opened the amethyst glass cup, Dongfang Rong's eyes brightened significantly.

"Nope." Imperceptibly moved his Adam's apple, Dongfang Rong opened his mouth to refuse Ruan Liuyan: "This princess has eaten all the dim sum in the palace since she was a child, and I am not interested in tasting what dim sum you made." Yin Wanyi, I want to invite you to go to the racecourse to accompany me around, do you dare to go with this princess? ”

"It's an honor for the concubine to accompany the princess, but the concubine's breakfast hasn't run out yet, can the concubine be allowed to have breakfast?" Ruan Liuyan's request surprised Dongfang Rong.

When I went to those concubines' palaces before, those women were either submissive, or they had bitter melon looks unappetizing, and even secretly ordered their subordinates to invite the imperial brother over. What a joke, they thought the royal brother would blame her? I don't look at which onion and garlic I am.

She is bound to come this time, anyway, the people she brought have already guarded the gate of Chonghua Palace, and no one dares to break out. After making up his mind, Dongfang Rong responded generously: "Okay, this princess is waiting for you." ”

Ruan Liuyan smiled at her friendly, lowered her head and continued to eat, this time she directly picked up a rose cake with ivory chopsticks and put it to her lips, holding it with one hand to prevent the dim sum residue from falling, she lightly opened her thin lips and bit a small bite. Her eating appearance is elegant, and she didn't invite Dongfang Rong again this time.

For Dongfang Rong, who loves desserts like her life, Ruan Liuyan's light and slow-chewing way of eating is a kind of torture for her, and she unconsciously swallowed her saliva when she remembered what Ruan Liuyan had to say to describe the rose crisp. Forcing himself to look away, Dongfang Rong began to look around.

Ruan Liuyan is of course aware of her subtle changes, in fact, she is not surprised by the arrival of Princess Jiahe, it is rumored that as long as she is a palace concubine who has been promoted, Dongfang Rong will go to visit, and the final result is usually that the palace concubine's newly risen position has fallen back, and the reason is that without exception it is to rush the princess, which is disrespectful and so on.

But now it seems that this Princess Jiahe does not seem to be rude as rumored outside, and it is not easy to get along. In the occasional eye contact, Ruan Liuyan could still feel the clarity of Dongfang Rong's eyes.

But... Those who are pure in their minds seem to be more susceptible to provocation, deception, and even being used as a gunman.

As his thoughts flowed, Ruan Liuyan took out a handkerchief and purified his lips.

Ming Yue handed over tea to rinse her mouth in time, and after rinsing her mouth, she said to Dongfang Rong, who was already a little impatient, "Princess, the concubine is ready, let's go." ”

Dongfang Rong glanced at her, snorted coldly and walked out first. Ruan Liuyan nodded at Ming Yue, Ming Yue understood, and brought the food box that Qiu Luo had already prepared when he went out. There is still a distance from Chonghua Palace to the Royal Horse Farm, and Dongfang Rong is obviously prepared, and the prepared carriage is already waiting in front of the palace gate.

One after the other got into the carriage, and as the body swayed forward, Dongfang dissolved his eyes and leaned on the body to close his eyes and recuperate, Ruan Liuyan did not disturb her, only occasionally picked up the curtain and looked outside the carriage. In the carriage, together with the palace maid Liangyin, Mingyue sat a total of four people, but it was more quiet than when no one was sitting. About a stick of incense passed, the carriage slowly stopped.

When he got off the carriage at the racecourse, stepped on the grass and looked into the distance, Ruan Liuyan really felt the vastness of this land. The air is purer, with white clouds drifting in the distance and the occasional bird call coming from the woods to the east. The royal horse farm is all set up by special personnel, the princess has already stepped forward to greet her, Dongfang Rong seems to be a frequent visitor here, went straight to the booth to admire the selection of weapons, turned around, and returned empty-handed She came to Ruan Liuyan, "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”

"Back to the princess, the concubine doesn't know anything about equestrianism." Shaking his head, Ruan Liuyan told him "truthfully". In Yin Zhongxian's message about Yin Mingzhu, "she" really can't ride a horse.

"You won't?" Dongfang Rong exclaimed exaggeratedly, and then patted Ruan Liuyan's shoulder as if he was angry, "This princess can teach you!" Yin Wanyi, I'm in a good mood today, why don't you let this princess teach you to ride a horse? ”

"This...", taking Dongfang Rong's cunning into his eyes, Ruan Liuyan said with an embarrassed look: "The concubine has never practiced riding since she was scared by a horse once since she was a child, and the concubine is stupid, I'm afraid it will disappoint the princess." ”

"You can't trust this princess?" Dongfang Rong raised his eyebrows, "You can rest assured, right?" I'll have someone find you the gentlest horse in the whole race, and I'll never let you fall!" Faced with Dongfang Rong's assurance, Ruan Liuyan had no choice but to nod helplessly and agree, and then followed the people from the racecourse to change clothes.

Ruan Liuyan could imagine the appearance of Dongfang dissolving behind her, and now she could be sure that Princess Jiahe had been instigated by someone. Xue Shuyi last time was an inconsequential person, but this time Princess Jiahe is different, she is the emperor's own sister, and the concubines who were provoked by her are afraid that a thousand concubines are no match for a Princess Jiahe. can make Dongfang Rong obediently point where to fight, the person behind Dongfang Rong is definitely not simple.

After changing his clothes, Ruan Liuyan came to the racecourse again, and the gentlest horse in the whole racecourse that Dongfang Rongkou said was also brought in. The horse was covered in snow-white, with only the remaining ears embellished with black fluff, and stood still on the grass, and indeed looked like a gentle horse in appearance.

Dongfang Rong's good ride is just like her own style, it is a sweaty and bloody horse with jujube red all over her body, sitting firmly on the back of the horse, pulling the reins with both hands, Dongfang Rong's face is full of energy, "Yin Wanyi, you get on the horse quickly!" ”

With the help of the horse trainer at the horse farm, Ruan Liuyan reluctantly got on the horse, tightly gripping the saddle, and she didn't dare to move. Dongfang Rong saw her as if she was facing a great enemy, and couldn't help but be happy, "Horses can't eat people, why are you so afraid?" Tiger San, you first take the reins and take her around twice. ”

"The little one obeys." The man named Hu San hugged his fist, and then led the white horse around the neighborhood according to the order. After a few laps, Ruan Liuyan still didn't dare to grab the reins by himself, Dongfang Rong rode a horse and ran around, seeing Ruan Liuyan like this, he couldn't help but turn over and get off the horse. "Give me the reins."

Approaching, Dongfang Rong ordered Hu San. Hu San received the order, lowered his eyes and handed over the reins in his hand, Ruan Liuyan sat on the horse, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Hu San's right hand quietly touching his side. Unexpectedly, a cold light flashed in an instant, and it turned out to be a bright and sharp dagger.

"Princess, be careful!"

Without thinking about it, Ruan Liuyan exclaimed.

As early as the moment she reminded him, Dongfang Rong reacted quickly and retreated. One side was exposed, and the assassins from other places appeared one after another, and the Royal Foresters who rushed to escort them fought with the assassins, and the horse farm was in chaos for a while.

"Tiger San" failed to stab him, and he knew that it would be very difficult to succeed again, so he seemed to blame Ruan Liuyan for ruining his good deeds, so he turned around and stabbed at her. The cold light of the dagger was cold, and Ruan Liuyan, who was on horseback, seemed to be frozen, and could only watch the dagger arrive in front of him.

"Blaze!" At the last moment, a whip suddenly swung from behind the assassin, and the whip tail was like a snake flexibly wrapped around the assassin's right hand. It turned out that Dongfang Rong's waist was not tied with a patterned belt at all, but a blood jade soft whip that she had long been accustomed to. Holding the assassin in both hands with whips, Dongfang Rong shouted at Ruan Liuyan: "Don't get off the horse yet!" ”

Ruan Liuyan woke up like a dream, turned over and threw himself off the horse. The moment she landed, she turned her head to look at Dongfang Rong, only to see that Dongfang Rong had already thrown the assassin out, and the assassin rolled around a few times, spit out a few mouthfuls of blood and passed out. The little white horse ran away with no one on his back, and not far away, Dongfang Rong pounced, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." With the help of Dongfang Rong's arm strength, Ruan Liuyan stood with her. The surrounding guards were in a battle of assassins, and another assassin pounced, and Dongfang Rong met him with a blood whip in his hand. Standing in this sword light, Ruan Liuyan suddenly felt the soles of his feet hard, looked down, and saw the handle of the dagger glowing with cold light under his feet.

Picking up the dagger and holding it firmly in her hand, she leaned down to observe the situation in the field. At this time, a steady stream of Royal Guards poured in, and the assassins were gradually defeated, and only a few were still resisting. Dongfang dissolved the blood jade whip and walked towards Ruan Liuyan surrounded by the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, and when she approached, the last few assassins were also killed.

"Are you alright?" Seeing that her face was pale, Dongfang Rong stepped forward to support her body. Ruan Liuyan nodded, "It's okay, you can still walk." Amused by these words, Dongfang Rong reached out to put his arm around her.

At that moment, a "guard" who had been guarding Dongfang Rong's side changed his face to be ruthless, and he unexpectedly stabbed Dongfang Rong with a dagger, Ruan Liuyan was shocked, and she didn't have time to remind, she subconsciously threw herself out to block Dongfang Rong's body! Dongfang Rong was still surprised by her actions, until the other party's soft body fell into her arms, and she realized what had happened.

At the same time, the "guard" who performed the assassination was also fiercely inserted into the chest with a dagger, which was the one that Ruan Liuyan picked up on the ground, and it was inserted in the chest of the assassin intact at this time. The man's eyes widened, as if he didn't believe he was going to fail, but before he could fall, the other Kings swarmed up and chopped him into a meat sauce.
