When Jiang Xinzhi hurried to the Jinying Palace, his face could no longer be described as ugly. In the middle of the night, someone suddenly rumipped into his room at night, and if he hadn't revealed his identity in time, he would probably have been treated as an assassin. The person who came was in a hurry, only saying that something had happened to Jiang Ruan and asked him to go to the palace quickly. Jiang Xinyi was anxious when he heard this, and he rode to the Jinying Mansion without caring about anything. The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, how could something happen to his good sister who had only been married into the palace for a day, and I didn't know what the Tao was saying vaguely. But Jiang Xin also knew in his heart that if it wasn't for the good thing, Xiao Shao's stunt would not have someone to inform him in person.

Sure enough, when I arrived at the Jinying Palace, as soon as I entered the gate of the main courtyard, I saw Bai Zhi and Forsythia with solemn faces outside, Jiang Xin's heart sank, and he strode in, and at a glance he saw Jiang Ruan who was crying in Xiao Shao's arms.

Since Jiang Ruan was picked up in Zhuangzi, he has hardly cried so out of shape. Even in front of Jiang Xinzhi, she is always calm and composed, Jiang Xinzhi knows that her sister has been extremely tough over the years. When did I see her show such a look, I was in a trance for a while, and the girl in front of me coincided with the soft and weak little girl many years ago when Zhao Mei was still there.

However, after only a moment of distraction, Jiang Xinzhi came back to his senses, walked in front of Xiao Shao in three or two steps, and said angrily: "Ah Ruan, what's wrong with you?" Did he bully you? ”

Jiang Ruan cried so much, Jiang Xinzhi's heart was pinched, there was probably no one in this world who could make her cry like this, but if it was Xiao Shao's ....... Jiang Xinzhi frowned coldly, and Ye Feng was a little nervous, as if if Jiang Ruan replied well, Jiang Xinzhi would be able to fight Xiao Shao here immediately.

"She's poisoned." Xiao Shao said lightly: "Now that I am troubled by demons and delirious, I called you here because I want to ask you something, before the Xia family conspired to kill you, did you ever fall into someone else's trap?" ”

"What poisoning, what the hell are you talking about?" Jiang Xinzhi frowned, not understanding what Xiao Shao was talking about. When he saw that Jiang Ruan didn't seem to be aware of his arrival, he faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart. He took a step forward, bent down and approached Jiang Ruan, and said, "Ah Ruan? ”

Jiang Ruan was unaware, her eyes were empty like a deep pool, and her words were clear, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, exploding in Jiang Xinzhi's ears. She said, "Brother, don't die, don't leave me alone." ”

Jiang Xinzhi was stunned in place, and Xiao Shao lowered his eyes: "Now you understand, why did I call you over." ”

"What the hell is going on?" Jiang Xinzhi is not a stupid person, and he already understands a little when he sees Jiang Ruan's abnormal state. He looked Jiang Ruan up and down, but he didn't see any other wounds on her body, and his heart settled down a little. looked at Xiao Shao's eyes and was already very unkind: "What's wrong with Ah Ruan?" Why don't you even know me? It looks like I'm being struck. Thinking of what Xiao Shao had just said, Jiang Xinzhi was shocked: "You said she was poisoned?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Shao looked at Jiang Ruan in her arms, she had been in such a panic mood for too long, and the words she spit out from time to time contained endless secrets, each of which was terrifying. Even he had a lot of confusion. Jiang Xinzhi is Jiang Ruan's own brother, and he thought that Jiang Xinzhi knew at least a thing or two about many of these things, but now it seems that the two siblings do not have nothing to talk about. Jiang Ruan has always enclosed herself in a small space, and no one can walk in, because the secret she guards seems to be a huge conspiracy.

"How could she be poisoned?" Jiang Xinyi grabbed Xiao Shao's clothes, Xu was afraid of hurting Jiang Ruan, but he was still much lighter, he lowered his voice, but his eyes were a little red, and his tone was full of anger: "Xiao Shao, she passed the door for only a day, and you let her be poisoned under your nose?" That's how you took care of her! I knew that this palace was such a Longtan tiger's den, I would raise her in the mansion for the rest of my life, and I would never let her marry you! ”

He has always been protective of his shortcomings, but Ye Feng, who was listening to it, wanted to complain for his master, and said, "Uncle and young master, what you said is inappropriate." The young lady's poison was not placed in our house, and it was investigated, it was already in the womb with the toxin, and it was accumulated in the body since childhood, and the root cause was not in the palace, you want to complain about the master, is it too unreasonable. ”

The Jinyi guards treated Xiao Shao with great respect, but they didn't pay so much attention to others, and Ye Feng spoke unceremoniously. Jiang Xin was stunned when he heard this, and he asked rhetorically: "Poison in the womb?" ”

"So I ask you," Xiao Shao looked at him coldly: "In the Jiang Mansion, there is someone who has been unfavorable to you, who is it?" ”

Jiang Xinzhi was slightly stunned, and then sneered, he has always been kind to people, and it is rare to see such a gloomy expression. He said: "Me and Ah Ruan are a thorn in everyone's side in the Jiang Mansion, and if you want to ask me who is not good for us, it will be too much." Ah Ruan has been insulted since birth, at least she can live a stable life with her mother and me, if you don't mention it today, I don't know what to do, she was poisoned long before that. Jiang Xinzhi clenched his fists: "If I know who that person is, I will definitely have him broken into thousands of pieces!" ”

"Mrs. Xian also fell into this poison," Xiao Shao said lightly, "That's why she died." And you don't seem to have been tricked," Xiao Shao glanced at Jiang Ruan in his arms: "The housework of the Jiang Mansion is only known to you." The origin is still up to you to understand. After finding that person, I won't make a better deal than you, and I won't make him better. ”

What he said was light and light, but the room was a little cold, and the last few words were almost swept with a faint killing intent. People do not hesitate to make this beautiful and elegant young man, and the next moment he will become Shura's bloodthirsty and ruthless.

Jiang Xinzhi looked at him fixedly, Xiao Shao looked at him calmly, and after a while, Jiang Xinzhi said in a deep voice: "If you ask me who my biggest enemy is, it is naturally Xia Yan's family." At the beginning, she wanted to be the head of the house, but she was clearly just a concubine, but she was embarrassed by her mother everywhere, and she pretended to be generous, and Jiang Quan always protected her. Jiang Xinzhi's expression was like swallowing a fly, as long as he thought of those days, Xia Yan's coy behavior brought to their mother and son humiliation, he felt disgusted in his heart. Now he didn't even want Jiang Quan to call "Dad", and he could see that he had no affection for Shangshufu.

"Xia Yan is dead, but she was induced to provoke the old poison in her body, and the person who did it was not Xia Yan." Xiao Shao said: "I will find out about this matter, now ......" He looked at Jiang Ruan in his arms: "You can come and see her." He let go of his hand, Jiang Ruan had calmed down a little before being coaxed by him, at least there was no hysterical questioning, but he still looked very frightened and miserable, as if he had experienced something extremely desperate.

As soon as Xiao Shao got out of the way, Jiang Xinzhi stepped forward and hugged Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan's eyes were already red and swollen, although Jiang Xinzhi had answered Xiao Shao's question before, he was still full of doubts when he saw this scene at this moment, and hurriedly asked: "How did Ah Ruan become like this?" ”

"By mistake, now her demons are born." Xiao Shao's voice couldn't hear joy and anger, but it could make people feel the faint anger contained in the calm words. He stood up and glanced at Jiang Ruan: "This is her inner demon." Jiang Xinzhi, she is immersed in such panic every day, I can't understand, and you don't understand, but there are some things, I thought you should know the Tao. He lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes seemed to flutter slightly, and his tone was unwavering: "Your sister, Lord Hong'an, is not as fearless as she seems on the surface. She is scared every day, but you and I don't know the way. After saying this, he pushed the door and walked out, leaving Jiang Xin alone to stay where he was.

After being stunned for a moment, Jiang Xinzhi seemed to understand, and he looked down at Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan didn't realize that even though Jiang Xinzhi was beside her, her eyes were looking through Jiang Xinzhi as if she was looking at something else. Jiang Xinzhi noticed her little finger and bent it deeply in the palm of his hand, and Jiang Xinzhi's eyes turned red when he boarded it. Jiang Ruan was very timid when he was young, but whenever he was extremely scared, he always unconsciously made this small action. Later, Jiang Ruan came back from Zhuangzi, she was smart, calm, bold and neat, she didn't seem to have anything to fear, and she never saw her make such a move again. I thought that she no longer had anything to be afraid of, and she no longer kept this habit, but when I saw it today, it turned out that she had always been the same little girl, how could he let his sister fall into such a situation? Xiao Shao's words were like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, Jiang Ruan was immersed in fear day and night, and he didn't know what to do? He didn't even know what to do? Jiang Xinyi gritted his teeth and slammed his fist into the head of the bed.

The vase on the head of the bed shattered in response, blood slowly overflowed from between his fingers, Jiang Ruan's body trembled, Jiang Xinzhi looked at her, she grabbed Jiang Xinzhi's hand, and muttered in her mouth: "Bleeding, big brother bleeding, big brother is dead...... The eldest brother died on the battlefield, the elder brother did not die on the battlefield, he was murdered! Brother! Her originally stable mood suddenly became excited, and her eyes flashed with madness, but Jiang Xinzhi said everything she said. Although Jiang Xinzhi didn't understand her words, his nose was sour when he heard the words, and he couldn't help but take Jiang Ruan into his arms, as if he was comforting his little sister many years ago, and said softly: "Aru, the eldest brother is so good, the eldest brother will not leave you, don't be afraid." I'm not going anywhere ....... ”

The night was silent, and the movements of the two brothers and sisters could not be ignored, and they were clear in the ears of everyone outside the door. Dew covered her mouth, her eyes filled with tears, and she whispered, "I never knew that the girl was so bitter in her heart. "Since she followed Jiang Ruan in Zhuangzi, Jiang Ruan has never shown a bitter side, she has her own thoughts, but all emotions, except for vulnerability.

Jin Er patted her on the shoulder: "The young lady has a strong temperament, she will get better." ”

Tianzhu didn't move, just quietly looked into the room. She had admired the tenacity and skill of the woman in the room, and wanted to strive to be as strong as her. Now that he suddenly saw Jiang Ruan's appearance, Tianzhu was also confused.

"She must have suffered a lot." Steward Lin said suddenly, it was rare for everyone to see him so serious, and they all turned their heads to look at him. Steward Lin stood outside the house, a pair of shrewd eyes seemed to have some strange emotions floating at this moment, and it seemed vicissitudes and sorrow for a moment, he said: "The mental means are different from ordinary people, not the genius of the sky. But if you are just young, you can't bear to know about it. She is so good at doing things, she has never been afraid of something, it must be because, a long time ago, she had experienced a very desperate moment, and those who had no heart must have been broken by others. ”

Have you ever been heartbroken? Everyone looked at the silhouette under the pair of lamps in the room, the woman seemed to be extremely sad, and in the shaking lamp shadow, the shoulders were surprisingly weak, which was really unbearable. People who used to think that they were cold and light turned out to be so painful in their hearts. For a while, for the future heroine of the palace, everyone's hearts were a little more regretful.

"Where has the master gone?" Jin San looked around, and Xiao Shao disappeared after leaving the house.

Jin Si was stunned: "Oops, won't the master go directly to Jiang Dan impulsively?" ”

Everyone looked at each other.

……

Even the palace is very lively, and everywhere begins to buy things for the New Year. In addition, the weather has been very good these days, even if it is a light snow, the sun is always lovely, the emperor is happy, all the concubines in the palace are happy, the master is happy, and the people below are also beneficial, and for a while the palace swept away the previous depression, becoming cheerful and lively.

In a corner of the palace, Mingyue was serving the young man for breakfast, Xuan Peifang got up, this young man is now quite valued by the emperor, even Xuanli and Xuanhua are not much stronger in front of him, although the courtiers feel that betting on the thirteen princes who have no background is a bit dangerous, but looking at the emperor's attitude, they are a little undecided.

The thirteenth prince Xuanpei was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and he wrote his theories well, and even the always strict Taifu Liu Min praised him. He is not pampered and arrogant, even if he is still young now, he has quite an opinion on the affairs of the court, every time the emperor takes the official affairs of the court to test him, Xuan Pei can also say several good ideas.

If the color had just turned a little white today, he would have ordered someone to light the lamp, eat a few bites of breakfast casually, and walk to the desk by himself after freshening up, and there was a thick stack of scriptures and histories on the table. He is always like this, he gets up at the moment of the rooster's crow, and everyone can only see the scenery in front of others, but they do not see the hard work of this young man in private. He never said this to anyone, but Mingyue was secretly frightened, the longer she stayed by Xuan Pei's side, the more she felt that this beautiful young man was really incredible. He is young, but he knows how to keep his head down, and his self-control is amazing, and he hardly needs to be reminded of anything, he can always accurately know what he wants to do and work hard for it. Even the emperor's good impression of him is within Xuan Pei's step-by-step plan. For example, at this moment, the painstaking reading now is just so that he can answer new questions before the emperor comes up with new questions.

Xuan Pei had already sat down at the table, and Mingyue got up to clean up the remaining dishes and chopsticks. I didn't want to receive half of it, but I heard the panicked voice of Chaoyang, another personal maid of Xuanpei outside: "Lord Xiao, why are you here?" Your Highness is still resting, you ......" Before the words fell, he heard the door "slammed" and was pushed open, and a young man dressed in black stood at the door, his eyes were cold, but his expression was faintly haggard.

Chaoyang rushed in and looked at Xuan Pei with some fear: "Your Highness, the slave can't stop ......"

Although Xuan Pei looks very good at talking on weekdays, he doesn't seem to have said anything serious to his subordinates, but once he angers him, the end is always creepy. So although Chaoyang is smiling on weekdays, he treats this master with all his heart. Chaoyang's words reminded Mingyue that she was originally the person arranged by Xiao Shao to Xuan Pei's side, speaking of which Xiao Shao was his master, and Xuan Pei used her easily on weekdays. At this moment, she didn't stop Xiao Shao's thoughts.

Fortunately, Xuan Pei was not angry, just glanced at Xiao Shao, and said to Mingyue and Chaoyang: "This hall wants to read the book, you all go down." Between the words, it was to conceal Xiao Shao's meaning here, Mingyue and Chaoyang hurriedly retreated to cover the door. After the two left, Xuan Pei walked to the table and sat down unhurriedly. Today he wears a pine-green brocade gold-rimmed court dress, and now that the emperor treats him well, his clothes are no longer ill-fitting at the beginning. The figure and fabric are very lined with Xuan Pei's temperament, he was originally born with a delicate and elegant appearance, but now he is even more extravagant, and there is a special taste between immaturity and maturity.

He leaned back in his chair, his voice was still immature and clear, but his tone was full of adult style: "The prince broke into my palace early in the morning, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly." As he spoke, he lifted the pen, as if he wanted to practice calligraphy.

"What is your relationship with Jiang Ruan?" Xiao Shao said coldly.

Xuan Pei's hand paused, and a large drop of ink dripped from the wolf's hair, and it was thick on the paper. He put down the pen and hid the deep meaning in his eyes, before he said slowly: "Oh? Why did Prince Xiao say this? ”

"You go back to my question first." Xiao Shao did not back down and stared at him closely.

Xuan Pei turned his head to look at him, and his gaze slowly fell on Xiao Shao's arm. Where did Jiang Ruan bite last night, and then Steward Lin bandaged him, and the wound on his arm was bandaged, but there were scratches on the back of his hand that Jiang Ruan had when he went crazy. As soon as Xuan Pei saw the scratch clearly, he immediately stood up, and his expression changed: "What did you do to her?" ”

Xiao Shao has a cold and arrogant temperament, and there are almost no other women around him who can get close except for Jinyiwei, but now that he has married a wife, Jiang Ruan is also the closest one to him. The scratches of a woman's nails on the back of a good hand are hard not to associate with other places.

Xiao Shao didn't see Xuan Pei before, and he also knew that this immature young man was also a master of disguising his emotions, but now his emotions were revealed, which was really surprising. Fortunately, even so, his attitude towards Xiao Shao was so clear, and he could see that he was very concerned about Jiang Ruan. At least it won't be bad for Jiang Ruan.

Seeing that Xiao Shaowu was contemplating and not speaking, Xuan Pei was anxious, and took a few steps forward and said, "Answer me quickly, what did you do to her?" ”

When Xiao Shao heard this, he looked at him thoughtfully, and Xuan Pei was looked at by those dark and deep eyes, and suddenly realized his gaffe. However, it was too late, Xiao Shao asked lightly, "Why are you so concerned?" ”

"I ......" Xuan Pei was speechless for a moment, and then seemed to think of something, and immediately said: "The lord of Hong'an is now half a sister of the palace, and since she is a sibling, she should take care of each other, and if you bully her, you will slap the royal face." This hall is not afraid to tell you plainly today, if you dare to touch a single hair of her, although this hall is small and weak, even if you fight for this life, you will also seek justice for her! ”

Although this young man is moody and angry on weekdays, he is extremely persistent in Jiang Ruan's affairs, and when it comes to the most stubborn, even if he is a little childish, he can see the resoluteness in it. Those words were not fake, but from the bottom line, if Xiao Shao really bullied Jiang Ruan one day, Xuan Pei would really be desperate to find an explanation for her. Such a relationship was too unusual, Jiang Ruan was only a nominal county lord after all, and he had never been in contact with Xuan Pei for a long time. What's more, he has also investigated, and the intersection between Jiang Ruan and Xuan Pei is just the origin of helping Xuan Pei out of the siege from the lord of Heyi County in the palace. It's just a very small thing, how can there be such a great affection and friendship. But since then, Xuan Pei even helped Jiang Ruan testify in the royal trial of the Jinluan Palace, and even the prince's departure and Xia Qing's coming to Kyoto had Xuan Pei's part. On the day of marriage, Xuan Pei's congratulatory gift was so handy, it was really worthy of the very rich dowry of the daughter of an ordinary official.

No matter how you look at it, it is not a nodding acquaintance, and now Xuan Pei's move has confirmed the conjecture in Xiao Shao's heart. But even so, there are many things that don't make sense, it is clear that the two have not interacted much, and Jiang Ruan ...... last night.

He looked down at Xuan Pei, the young man's size had not yet grown, and his face was very cute, but there was deep hostility in his eyes. Xiao Shao said lightly: "I didn't do anything, she was poisoned." ”

"Poisoned?" Xuan Pei was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Then how is she now?" Are you okay? ”

"Not good." A hint of deep meaning flashed in Xiao Shao's eyes, and he said: "The whole person fell into the demons in his heart, muttering to himself, and the words of others were completely inaudible. ”

"What should I do?" Xuan Pei was anxious to completely lose his precocious steadiness on weekdays, and only said: "Aren't you King Jinying, why didn't you invite a doctor?" By the way, is that Jinling Holy Hand still in the capital, why don't you invite him to come? The main hall immediately asked people to take the post and invite him! ”

"No need," Xiao Shao interrupted his movements, and his voice became cold for a moment: "He's in the house." It's just that Ah Ruan said a name when he muttered to himself, and this king thought it was a little familiar. ”

Xuan Pei was stunned.

Xiao Shao said slowly: "She said, Pei'er." ”
