Early in the morning of the second day, Jiang Ruan received a post from the county lord of Heyi, inviting her to go to Mufeng Pavilion to sit down. Bai Zhi was still a little suspicious when she came to deliver the post, she didn't know what Jiang Ruan asked Tianzhu to do, but what the county lord of Heyi wanted to do badly, so she couldn't help but remind aloud: "Girl, this county lord of Heyi came here at this time, it must be the drunkard's intention not to drink, and the girl should not fall for her plan." ”

Forsythia also nodded: "Now that so many pairs of eyes in the palace are staring at the girl tightly, you must not have an accident at this juncture, why don't you go back to this post and say that the girl is inconvenient?" ”

"No need." Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "You go and clean up my clothes for me." ”

Forsythia and Bai Zhi looked at each other, and when they saw Jiang Ruan's appearance as if they had an idea, they had to do as they were told. Instead, Dew Drop leaned over and said, "Girl, isn't Lord Heyi already ...... Could it be that she didn't do anything? ”

It is impossible for a dead person to send a post, and there is no such thing as a ghost or god in the world, unless the lord of Heyi is still alive, how can this post come out for no reason.

"Impossible." Jiang Ruan said. Tianzhu had already inquired yesterday, and Lord Heyi returned to the dormitory last night, and he didn't even go to Shufang Palace. The county lord of Heyi did such a big thing yesterday, but he didn't mention anything, and he heard the palace maid in the palace say that the behavior of the county lord of Heyi yesterday was also a little strange, and she didn't seem to want to talk more.

In this way, it is likely that the "Lord of Heyi" who entered the dormitory is not really the Lord of Heyi. This post must have been sent by the "Lord of Heyi", of course, the person who really wanted to invite her was not the fake "Lord of Heyi", but the person behind it.

The post has been sent to the princess's palace, how can she not go to the appointment, but it also saves a lot of trouble. She raised her eyebrows, reached out and shook out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to Tianzhu: "It's inconvenient for you to show up, find an opportunity to send this letter to the national teacher Huijue." ”

Tianzhu nodded, Jiang Ruan changed his clothes, and let Bai Zhi and Lu Zhu follow and go to Mufeng Pavilion.

Although the scenery of Mufeng Pavilion is excellent, it is very close to the cold palace, and the palace concubines on weekdays are afraid of being contaminated with bad luck and do not come here often, and the eunuchs and palace maids have a lot of things to do every day, and they have no leisure to enjoy the beautiful scenery, and the masters are not here, so they will naturally not come. It's just that the county lord of Heyi still likes this place very much on weekdays.

Jiang Ruan arrived at the corridor of Mufeng Pavilion, and saw a figure lying on the table from a distance, seeing that the clothes and ornaments should be the Lord of Heyi, and the two maids beside him were the personal palace maids of the Lord of Heyi. Seeing this scene, Lu Zhu frowned, Xin Dao and Lord Yi didn't die? Could it be that Bai Zhi really said that he was wrong, did he think of some bad way to harm Jiang Ruan?

Bai Zhi was more careful than the dewdrops, and the sharp eyes found that the body of Lord Yijun was a little strange, and he couldn't tell what was strange. It's like a doll stuffed with cotton, its posture is stiff, and even the lines of its shoulders are very unnatural. Bai Zhi kept an eye on it, and for some reason there was a sense of uneasiness in her heart. couldn't help but want to remind Jiang Ruan again, but saw Jiang Ruan walking towards the county lord of Heyi without blinking.

She walked unhurriedly, and didn't seem to think that this was a wary thing at all, but as if she had really come to an ordinary afternoon invitation between friends.

When he walked up, the two palace maids beside the county lord of Heyi lowered their heads and called, "The county lord of Hong'an is a thousand years old." ”

Jiang Ruan glanced at Lord Heyi faintly. At this time, when he got closer, he could see clearly, on the stone table, Lord Heyi buried his face on the table, as if he was asleep, and he couldn't see his face clearly. The closer you go, the stronger the scent emanating from Lord Heyi's body.

But it is common for noblewomen in the palace to like to use fat powder balm, but the more expensive the balm, the more important it is to light taste. The lighter the smell, the more elegant it feels, and it is as strong as the lord of Yijun, but it is almost the same as those Qinglou celebrities.

Dew Zhu first glanced at Lord Heyi with some confusion, and then her eyes widened as if she had thought of something, afraid that she would be discovered by the two palace maids, and hurriedly lowered her head, and her heart was shocked. How could Lord Heyi use such a strong aroma, if she didn't understand it on weekdays, but listening to Jiang Ruan's words yesterday, it seemed to have a breakthrough in her doubts at this moment. The aroma is too strong, not like it is used to add dress, but like it is covering something.

Cover up what? It must be to cover the smell of blood, the smell of rot!

Dewdrop's heart jumped, the dead Lord Heyi sat in this place, and someone posted to Jiang Ruan in her name, what other purpose could there be, it was clearly a bureau set up against Jiang Ruan!

"Girl," Dewdrop called in a hurry.

Jiang Ruan turned her head to look at her, the clarity and calmness in her eyes made Dew Drop slightly stunned, and somehow, Dew Drop only felt that Jiang Ruan's glance swept away her uneasiness, and slowly calmed down, thinking that her girl was always strategizing, and today's events were probably already expected, so she might as well wait and see what happened.

Although Bai Zhi didn't understand what was going on, she intuitively felt that there was something inexplicable under the post of Lord Heyi today, but she had always been calmer, just staring at Jiang Ruan tightly and not thinking about anything else.

The two palace maids stood in place without saying a word, Jiang Ruan raised his eyebrows, and said with a slight smile: "Lord Heyi is asleep?" ”

A palace maid who was serving the county lord of Heyi nodded and said, "Exactly, the slaves and maids dare not disturb the county lord at will." ”

"How about I wake her up?" Jiang Ruan said with a smile. This somewhat unpredictable tone instantly stunned the two palace maids, but they didn't expect Jiang Ruan to be so happy, but it saved them things. But when I heard Jiang Ruan's tone for some reason, I always had a feeling of unease, as if I was being watched by someone. The two looked at each other and lowered their heads.

Jiang Ruan slowly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the shoulder of the county lord of Heyi, as far as the eye could reach, it was really stiff, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she jerked the county lord of Heyi back.

With a "bang", the county lord of Heyi fell down from the stone bench at once, rolled on the ground, and lay on his back with his face facing the sky. At this time, I saw that there was a delicate dagger in the abdomen of the lord of Heyi, and the blood stains on it were bright, covering the original traces. And the county lord of Heyi's eyes widened, his lips were pale, and he had obviously been dead for a long time.

Dew Drop was only startled because she had been mentally prepared before, but Bai Zhi was so frightened that she screamed, and the eyes of Lord Heyi happened to be facing Jiang Ruan, as if she had experienced great pain and disbelief before she died, and her eyes showed resentment and fear, like a demon asking for her life.

"County Lord!" The two palace maids shouted in unison, their faces suddenly changed, and one of them pointed at Jiang Ruan and said, "You actually killed the county lord!" ”

Jiang Ruan was not happy or angry, and said lightly: "Oh, how can you see it? ”

From the moment she was now, when she suddenly saw the corpse of the county lord of Heyi, there was not the slightest change in color, if she was either scheming or she had already expected what would happen. No matter which one it is, it is very terrifying, but Jiang Ruan's casual attitude makes people confused in their hearts. The two palace maids were frightened, but they could only act according to the previous script. One of them said angrily: "The lord of Hong'an is so ruthless, the two slaves and maids have seen with their own eyes that the lord of Hong'an and the lord of Heyi have become the county lord, and the lord of Hong'an has killed the killer, that is, in front of His Majesty, the lord of Hong'an is also a murderer!" ”

"Did you see it with your own eyes?" Jiang Ruan smiled lowly: "There are two of you, but I also have two people here, what you saw with your own eyes was that I killed He Yi, and I am two maids, I'm afraid that the things I see are a little different." ”

Bai Zhi also recognized the situation after the initial fear, and was furious when she heard the palace maid talking nonsense with her eyes open and wanting to frame Jiang Ruan. Hearing Jiang Ruan say this, he immediately reacted and said, "Exactly, the two sisters are talking so strangely, when our girl came, the county lord was already dead." ”

"That's true." Luzhu said: "There is no problem with the two sisters having one mouth, and there is no mistake with the three pairs of eyes on our side." ”

The palace maid didn't expect Jiang Ruan to be so calm at this moment, and even had the heart to engage in a verbal dispute with them, and for a while she didn't know what to say, so at this moment, she only heard a voice behind her: "The county lord is really courageous, and the enemy is talking and laughing at the moment, which makes the palace also admire." ”

Jiang Ruan turned around, only to see a person fluttering from outside the corridor, dressed in brown clothes as usual, who is it not the fourth prince Xuan Lang?

Although he didn't catch the people behind it, at least this trip was not without gain. Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "Your Royal Highness." ”

"County Lord, it's not just two people now." Xuan Lang smiled very kindly and gently, with a bit of pleasure from the bottom of his heart: "The main hall also saw the process of the county lord's murder with his own eyes, even if the words of the two palace maids are not weighty, I don't know if the words of the main hall can be done?" ”

Lu Zhu and Bai Zhi both stared at Xuan Lang with hatred, even if he was no longer a favored prince in the palace, his identity and status were here, if Xuan Lang really came out to testify, Jiang Ruan would not have the upper hand at all. Especially at the moment when Jiang Xin's whereabouts are unknown, many people in the court are watching Jiang Ruan's every move, wishing that she made a mistake, if she is really accused of this crime, everyone will come up and step on it, Jiang Ruan will be very difficult if he wants to stand up again.

"Your Royal Highness, Fourth Highness, might as well get straight to the point." Jiang Ruan sighed: "It's really tiring to talk around in circles like this." ”

Xuan Lang nodded: "This hall also thinks so. The main hall believed that the county lord was just impulsive, not intentional. In fact, the eighth brother has admired the county lord for a long time, and since the county lord is the eighth brother's sweetheart, the main hall will not embarrass the county lord too much. ”

Jiang Ruan didn't speak, just quietly looked at Xuan Lang and smiled. She didn't answer Xuan Lang's words, and Xuan Lang looked a little embarrassed, but Xuan Lang was not really as vulnerable as he seemed to be. In some things, Xuan Lang is more persistent than Jiang Dan, and he is much more ashamed. Even though he was coldly received by Jiang Ruan, he continued regardless of it: "Although this matter has developed to the current situation, it is not completely lifeless. If there is anyone in this palace who can keep the county lord, there is only the eighth brother. If the county lord can get the protection of the eighth brother, it is not difficult to think that this matter will be solved perfectly. ”

"What's the solution?" Jiang Ruan looked at his fingertips, and his expression did not change much. Xuan Lang saw it in his eyes, and his brows furrowed invisibly.

After a pause, he said, "At least the eighth brother can think of a way to cover up this matter and prevent the county lord from being wronged." ”

Jiang Ruan seemed to be a little impatient at last, and asked, "I am only a general acquaintance with His Eighth Highness, how can I get his protection?" ”

"Don't say that, the county lord." Xuan Lang was overjoyed, and immediately talked eloquently: "The county lord is the eighth brother's sweetheart, but now that Vice General Jiang's whereabouts are unknown at the border pass, the county lord's life in the palace is more or less dire, and if he accidentally makes a mistake, there are countless pairs of eyes staring." If you want to really get the blessing of the eighth brother, the only way to enter the eighth brother's mansion is the long-term way. ”

After saying this, Xuan Lang couldn't help but clench his fists, and he was a little nervous in his heart.

Xuan Lang proposed this method to Xuan Li, which was not unexpected. He knew that Xuanli was interested in Jiang Ruan, but he didn't know why Jiang Ruan was like a snake and scorpion to Xuanli. Recently, Xiao Shao's request for the emperor to marry is more like a thorn in Xuanli, Xuanlang has been with Xuanli for so long, and he knows some of Xuanli's thoughts.

For example, now, if Jiang Ruan can be manipulated with this matter and let Jiang Ruan marry Xuan Li, it will definitely make Xuan Li happier than finding a scapegoat to make the death of the county lord of Heyi have other names. If this matter is successful, Xuanli will definitely give him a credit, and he will be able to have a few more chips when the major event is completed in the future.

However, Xuan Lang could see others, but he was slow to predict Jiang Ruan's attitude. If you use ordinary methods, it will definitely not work, and you can only threaten the life of Lord Heyi and the well-being of Jiang Xinzhi. In Xuan Lang's view, the reason why Jiang Ruan did not choose Xuan Li was because there was a better choice for Xiao Shao. But when it comes to endangering her own interests, she has no other way. Women are all the same, no matter how powerful a woman is, at some point, she is useless except to show weakness and beg for mercy. Just like the original Lord of Heyi.

Jiang Ruan asked lightly: "His Royal Highness arranged such a play, just to force marriage?" I really think so highly of me. ”

Bai Zhi and Lu Zhu were already angry in their hearts, but they didn't expect Xuan Li to do such a dirty thing for his own selfish desires, and actually poured such dirty water on Jiang Ruan. But the death of the lord of a country is not a trivial matter.

"Don't be presumptuous." Xuan Lang smiled: "In the heart of the eighth brother, no one is as precious as the county lord. ”

Jiang Ruan was slightly stunned, this was often said in his previous life. At that time, she lived in the dark of the deep palace every day, and sometimes she felt inferior in the face of Xuanli's thoughtfulness, Xuanli often said: "You don't have to look down on yourself so much, in my heart, no one is as precious as you." ”

Now that these words came out of Xuan Lang's mouth, Jiang Ruan only felt sarcastic. In this life, Jiang Ruan did not look down on herself, but Xuan Li looked down on her status in her heart. In her heart, Xuanli is a bed bug maggot fly, how do you look at it, how disgusting?

"His Royal Highness is used to saying good things," Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "But I don't know if it's someone else's dog who has been in charge for a long time, and he will only pick up good things." ”

"You-" Xuan Lang's face changed, and he really didn't understand why Jiang Ruan, who was so good, suddenly changed his face. These words are too harsh, and he poked at the soft underbelly of Xuan Lang's heart right now, if it weren't for Jiang Ruan's identity, Xuan Lang would almost be unable to help but do it. Xu is Xuanlang thinks that the future of Xuanli is bright now, and he is also a little self-assertive and arrogant. Otherwise, in the past, hearing Jiang Ruan say this was just a cowardly smile and perfunctory. Now like this, I don't know if Lu Dao is because he has killed a Heyi County Lord, once the dark side of human nature is stimulated, it will be even more difficult to take it back.

Xuan Lang blushed and said to Jiang Ruan: "The palace is kind, but the county lord is speaking ill of him, which is really regrettable. ”

"You don't have to regret it," Jiang Ruan glanced at the corpse on the ground casually: "Even if you want to say that I killed the person, it doesn't matter, but I won't marry Xuanli." ”

"What did you say?" Xuan Lang looked at her in disbelief: "Do you know what what you said in Lu Dao represents?" ”

"I want to hear about it." Jiang Ruan made a gesture of deferential listening, and the smile fell in Xuan Lang's eyes, no matter how he looked at it, it was sarcastic.

"Today, in front of everyone's eyes, you killed the county lord of Heyi, you are committing a big crime, the county lord of Heyi is the most favored daughter of the father, you are just the county lord canonized halfway through the Shangshu Mansion, how can the father help you. This time, even the emperor's grandmother can't protect you, Vice General Jiang has an accident at the border pass again, at this time you killed the county lord of Heyi, do you know what the court of Ludao will say? Xuan Lang's voice was a little intimidating: "You have already had a rebellious heart with Jiang Xinzhi, and you want to trample on the dignity of the royal family and sell the land of the Great Jin Dynasty!" You can get into prison alive, but you can't get out alive! ”

Lu Zhu and Bai Zhi, who said these words, changed their faces, although they secretly hated Xuan Lang for being shameless, but they had to admit in their hearts that what Xuan Lang said was all right. As long as Jiang Ruan is accused of murdering the county lord of Heyi, it will be difficult to get out of this matter completely.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for mentioning this." Jiang Ruan didn't seem to hear Xuan Lang's words at all, and only bowed his head lightly and said, "It's really an eye-opener for me." ”

"At this point, you still won't change your mind?" Xuan Lang has gone from disbelief to ridicule, saying only that Jiang Ruan is a madman. In his opinion, choosing another path is Huangquan Road. Jiang Ruan would rather die than marry Xuan Li, but his head was broken.

"Fourth Highness, do whatever you want, whether it's sending it to prison or suing the royal court. In short, it is impossible for me to marry Xuan Li. She said, "I told you before, why do you think I'm going to change my mind?" ”

Xuan Lang looked at Jiang Ruan for a long time, and finally said: "Can you tell me one thing, why are you unwilling to marry the eighth brother, do you have a holiday?" ”

"Maybe it's a grudge from a previous life." Jiang Ruan said lightly: "The important thing is that it's too disgusting." ”

"Disgusting?" Xuan Lang froze.

"Yes. Disgusting. ”
