Chapter 28: Seeing the Old Man in the Bamboo Forest

didn't find Wan'er, Su Ruoxi went back to her room to rest.

She cleaned up the medicine she had bought before, but fortunately everything was still there. It's just that she doesn't know if Mu Zihan has found these medicinal materials she bought.

After tossing for half an hour, Su Ruoxi suddenly smelled the fragrance wafting from the door. When I looked up, it was Wan'er who walked in with a bowl of chicken soup.

Wan'er's face was a little haggard, and her thin body seemed to float away as if it was blown by the wind, which made Su Ruoxi feel a little distressed.

"Wan'er, why don't you rest in the room? Leave it to the rest of the people to do it. ”

Su Ruoxi stepped forward and took the chicken soup in Wan'er's hand, the chicken soup had a faint medicinal fragrance, and it made people feel delicious when they smelled it.

Wan'er grinned and said very happily: "The prince said last night that Miss would wake up today, and Wan'er went to the kitchen to cook this bowl of chicken soup for Miss before dawn." Miss hurry up and drink it while it's hot, it's not good if it's cold for a while. ”

Su Ruoxi drank the chicken soup in one go, the temperature and taste were just right, and it was delicious.

After drinking the chicken soup, Su Ruoxi asked Wan'er to sit down on the chair, and said with a serious face: "Wan'er, stretch out your hand, and I'll check your pulse." ”

Wan'er was stunned, a little unclear. Su Ruoxi didn't explain, and directly pulled Wan'er over and put it on the table, and then took her pulse.

After the diagnosis, Su Ruoxi breathed a big sigh of relief. Fortunately, Wan'er only suffered a little skin trauma and was not poisoned, so it seems that Mu Zihan did not lie to her.

Seeing that Su Ruoxi was still looking decent to give people a pulse, Wan'er couldn't help but ask curiously, "When will Miss also know how to heal?" Why didn't Wan'er know? ”

Su Ruoxi gave Wan'er a burst of chestnuts, and said angrily: "What do you know so much!" Sometimes knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing. ”

Wan'er nodded as if she didn't understand, and said with a sad face: "Miss, you almost scared Wan'er to death this time." Wan'er is really useless, even Miss can't protect her. ”

Wan'er looked very self-blaming, and Su Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Don't think about it, you still want to protect Miss Ben with your small body, I'm afraid nine lives are not enough."

"Miss, can't you be serious!"

Seeing that Su Ruoxi could still laugh, Wan'er blushed and puffed out her cheeks.

"Well, then I'm going to ask you something very serious. What is the situation in the palace now? Have you found out the origin of the assassin who broke into the palace that night? ”

Wan'er shook her head, said that she didn't know, thought about it and said: "Miss, the prince has given an order, now no one is allowed to enter or leave the palace without permission, and the guards in the palace are much stricter than before. ”

"What about the Mu Lingshan people?"

Not being able to get out of the palace doesn't have much impact on her, if she wants to get out, no one can stop her.

Importantly, she was in a coma for several days. In the few days she was unconscious, she didn't know what had happened in the palace.

"Lord Lingshan is fine, but he was a little frightened. Wan'er was also in a coma for a day and a night, and when she woke up, the prince had already brought back the county lord of Lingshan. However, according to other subordinates, the county lord was not injured. ”

Hearing Wan'er say this, Su Ruoxi's eyes were a little gloomy.

It seems that she guessed correctly, the assassins that night were not going to Mu Lingshan at all, what they wanted was her life!

Su Ruoxi secretly thought about the reason for the matter in her heart, but she couldn't think of who wanted to kill her.

In her impression, she didn't have any enemies at all. And the killer who can break into the palace is naturally not weak, and the person who wants to kill her will at least have some power.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that Su Ruoxi was confused, Wan'er shook her hand in front of Su Ruoxi, revealing a worried look.

"Wan'er, who do you think is in my best interest if I die?"

She could only try to deduce like this, Su Ruoxi was just a fool in the past, so she was confused when she saw things. Wan'er is at least a normal person, maybe she can know some clues.

"Don't say that, miss. Miss is so kind-hearted, she won't die so lightly. ”

Wan'er said with teary eyes, as if the previous events really frightened her.

Su Ruoxi rolled her eyes speechlessly, Wan'er is so stupid, I'm afraid she usually doesn't have the heart to pay too much attention, it seems that she still has to check it herself.

"Wan'er, it's okay, you go back and rest."

"Miss......"

Wan'er looked at Su Ruoxi worriedly, still very uneasy.

"I still have something to do, now that the palace is so heavily guarded, there will be no assassins breaking in again, don't worry."

Su Ruoxi comforted Wan'er, and then let Wan'er leave.

To the south outside the palace, there is a small bamboo forest. Su Ruoxi opened the window on the south side, and she could just see the quiet bamboo forest.

Su Ruoxi stood in front of the window and hesitated for a moment, her hand holding the jade flute tightened, and finally ran towards the bamboo forest to the south.

She had long known the guards of the palace very well, so it was not difficult for her to escape from the palace by avoiding the eyes of those guards.

After a cup of tea, Su Ruoxi walked into the bamboo forest slowly, and after noticing that there was no one around, he put the jade flute in his hand to his mouth and blew it gently.

The melodious and ethereal sound of the flute passed through the bamboo forest and farther away.

This jade flute is very strange, and the sound it makes is not like an ordinary flute, but like a bird chirping.

After blowing for a while, Su Ruoxi stood quietly in the bamboo forest and waited, looking forward to the appearance of the masked man.

But she waited for a long time, and there was no one in the bamboo forest except her.

"Damn! How dare you lie to me! What a broken flute, my aunt and grandmother thought it was really so magical! ”

Before waiting for anyone, Su Ruoxi was a little disappointed in her heart, she felt that her behavior was a little naΓ―ve, and she would actually believe the words of the masked man.

Even if he really came, how could such a small flute notify him of the signal.

Su Ruoxi threw the jade flute on the ground in a huff, turned around and left.

But as soon as she took a few steps, she felt a sudden gust of wind blow behind her, and then a familiar voice came.

"Girl, you've lost something."

Hearing this voice, Su Ruoxi knew that it must be the masked man. She turned around in surprise and saw that it was him!

"I thought you wouldn't come!"

Su Ruoxi showed a good-looking smile, and the previous depression dissipated a lot.

"There was a delay on the way, do you have something to do with me?"

The masked man was still dressed in a night suit, revealing only a pair of dark and deep eyes.

He stood three meters away from Su Ruoxi, as if he didn't want to get any closer.
