Chapter 142: Covering Xiao Shao

When the rooster crowed and the dawn broke in the east, the young man on the couch straightened his clothes and stood up. After a night's rest, and Xiao Shao's own recovery ability is better than ordinary people, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong at the moment. Jin San, who was outside, jumped in from the window, still a little worried about his injury, and asked hesitantly, "Master......"

Xiao Shao waved his hand, Jin San closed his mouth and thought about it, and said, "Miss Jiang has woken up and is outside the house." ”

After Jin San left, Xiao Shao looked around, yesterday the time was in a hurry, and he didn't notice anything, but now when he woke up, the whole room seemed to be filled with a faint fragrance, and at this time, he realized that this was indeed a girl's boudoir.

Since Xiao Shao took over Jinyiwei, he has received all kinds of tasks, and it is not that he has never seen a woman's boudoir, but in the end it is just an ordinary place in his heart, and it is no different from a garden lake, but today is the first time to realize the difference, so Uncle Xiao Shao, who has never wasted time on boring things, looked seriously at a woman's boudoir for the first time.

Although it is a boudoir, it does not look like a boudoir, unlike other women, there are no flowers and plants, there are no gorgeous and bright screen curtains, and there are no exquisite and beautiful decorations. For a girl who has just passed the war, it seems too bitter. Even Mo Cong, as a man, looked more particular than Jiang Ruan in that room.

Xiao Shao also heard about the miserable things that Jiang Ruan had sent to Zhuangzi by Jiang Quan, and if it was the thrifty habits left at that time, he was unwilling to make more gorgeous decorations in the house. But the dark and gloomy color was a little unusual.

The eldest daughter of the Jiang family likes to wear red on weekdays, and her face is charming, looking at the enthusiasm that should be like a red fox, but her partial temperament is as cold and cold as a green snake. Looking around the house, the colors are mostly dark and dark, how can ordinary women love dark colors. Xiao Shao himself likes Xuanse, because he has a cold temperament and is more precocious than his peers, but Jiang Ruan is just a young girl in the end, Xiao Shao is a little stunned, and seems to be able to glimpse the deep secret in Jiang Ruan's heart through these dim colors.

There was also a stack of books on the desk, Xiao Shao flipped through them at will, but they were some Jin Dynasty laws and military books, most of the rigid things were only read by old people, but the military books were turned a little yellow, obviously the owner often reads. Not only that, Xiao Shao also found that these law books were not only the latest, but they were also collected in the early years and decades ago, and he didn't know what Jiang Ruan was doing when he saw them.

He stood quietly in place, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before looking away and slowly walking out the door.

In the outhouse, Jiang Ruan was sitting in front of the window, but the book on the table was not opened, she supported her chin with one hand, looked out of the window, and didn't know what to think, but her expression was a little cold.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Jiang Ruan turned around, saw Xiao Shao coming, and asked, "Why don't you rest more?" ”

Ruan Ju is now an iron fence in Jiang's mansion, no one dares to come here, Jiang Ruan doesn't like to divide the rules too much, and the maid and wife are lazier than the people in other courtyards on weekdays, at this hour, she woke up, but some of the maids and women in Ruan Ju have not woken up yet.

Xiao Shao was also a little puzzled, but just after the rooster crowed, Jiang Ruan looked like a long time ago, his eyes fell on the faint blue and black under Jiang Ruan's eyes, and he knew in his heart that he was a little sorry, and said, "You ...... Great work. ”

This was a thoughtless thing, Bai Zhi, who was on the side of the sect, almost couldn't hold back her laughter, lowered her head and found a reason to quickly retreat, making room for Jiang Ruan and Xiao Shao to talk.

Jiang Ruan bowed, she had been sleeping lightly, in fact, since she was reborn in her first life, although she looked calm and indifferent, but at night, the nightmare of her previous life could not linger, once she was awakened by a nightmare in the middle of the night, she could no longer sleep. If there is something in your heart, sleep even more shallowly.

Xiao Shao suddenly appeared last night, and after she settled down, she went to the outhouse, thinking a lot in her heart, and she became more and more sleepy, if it weren't for the persuasion and persuasion of Bai Zhi and Forsythia, even those hours would not have been able to sleep.

Xiao Shao sat down opposite Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan's eyes fell on his chest, and said, "Is the injury healing?" ”

Xiao Shao nodded: "I'll leave later." ”

"There's no need to be so anxious," Jiang Ruan looked at him and said, "It's never too late to leave with a bowl of brown sugar water." ”

Speaking of brown sugar water, Xiao Shao's expression stiffened a little again, and he was not ignorant of the efficacy of brown sugar water. Jiang Ruan is drinking brown sugar water because Kwai Shui is here these days, but he is a good man, drinking that brown sugar water, if it reaches the ears of Jinyiwei, how will he convince people in the future?

Jiang Ruan looked at his unnatural appearance, but felt a little funny, and diverted the topic, saying, "How many days will you stay when you return to Beijing this time?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Shao's expression became serious, and seeing him like this, Jiang Ruan's heart understood a little. I only heard Xiao Shao say: "I'm afraid that Beijing has not been peaceful recently, you should be more careful in the house, if there is something, use the whistle I gave you." ”

Jiang Ruan stared: "The people of southern Xinjiang are going to do it?" ”

Xiao Shao was surprised in his heart, this was a secret in the palace, and ordinary women would not think about other aspects even if they knew it, but Jiang Ruan seemed to be very sensitive to these things, and looked at Jiang Ruan's eyes unconsciously with a little more admiration: "Yes." ”

"I know." Jiang Ruan didn't say much, paused, and said: "You are already the target of everyone, since the people of southern Xinjiang are rampant in Beijing, most of them will come at you, you should also pay attention." ”

In the previous life, the name of Xiao Shao, the king of Jinying, often seemed to be linked to southern Xinjiang, that is, when the previous emperor was poisoned and Xuan Li seized the throne, Xiao Shao was also in southern Xinjiang, and he couldn't rush back for a while. If Xiao Shao was still in the capital at the beginning, I don't know how the situation developed later. Thinking of this, Jiang Ruan was a little stunned for a while, and when she noticed Xiao Shao's gaze, she calmed down a little, although she didn't know what the specific reason was, she felt that Xiao Shao had an inexplicable relationship with Southern Xinjiang. I don't know if it's a feud, or if there is any other reason, in short, Xiao Shao always has a faint layer of anger on his body when he treats the people of southern Xinjiang. That layer of anger was very light, but because Jiang Ruan was a person who had died once, he understood that feeling very clearly.

Xiao Shao bent the corners of his mouth, his gaze softened, and said, "Okay." After a pause, he said again, "What are you going to do with the Xia family?" Do you want me to help you? ”

After Jiang Ruan left yesterday, Tianzhu went to the house and explained in detail what had happened in Jiang's mansion these days. Xiao Shao was very unhappy when he heard that Yu Ya had designed to frame Zhao Feizhou, these people were like flies, and they were always annoying around people. If Jiang Ruan agreed, he could think of a way to wipe out the Xia Mansion and eliminate the future troubles forever.

"No need, I have a way." Jiang Ruan said. Revenge is such a thing, there is no need to fake it, if it is really as clean as Xiao Shao, wouldn't it be cheaper for them.

When Xiao Shao saw her like this, he didn't insist, but said, "Okay." ”

The two talked a little more, but it was something that had nothing to do with Fengyue, and the dew drops peeking out the window made them want to hit the wall. But at this moment, Bai Zhi hurriedly pushed the door in and said hurriedly: "Girl, the fourth girl is coming to the courtyard." ”

At such an early stage, besides, Jiang Dan would never come to Ruan Juli on weekdays, and now he is acting like this, which is suspicious. Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "Since she pays so much attention to me, she also heard some rumors last night, and she is coming non-stop at this time, and she wants to block all the retreats." ”

She looked at Xiao Shao: "I'm afraid you won't be able to leave now." ”

Xiao Shao stood up: "I'll go out of the road." ”

"Why bother," Jiang Ruan smiled: "My fourth sister, looking at the inconspicuous mountains and waters, a delicate little flower, will do something that will make you fall into your glasses." ”

"If you find me here, it will jeopardize your reputation." Xiao Shao pursed his lips. He understood what fame meant to his daughter's family. Besides, Jiang Ruan is now the lord of Hong'an, and no matter how many pairs of eyes are staring at her inside and out, if something really happens, the spittle of the people can drown her.

"Do you really think that my fourth sister is just trying to tarnish my reputation?" Jiang Ruan shook his head with a smile: "I'm afraid that the person who killed you outside last night will also find a reason to search for someone, I think about it, it should be an assassin." If the guess is correct, Jiang Dan should have suspected me in this courtyard last night, and at this moment, there are probably several floors outside the Jiang Mansion, just waiting for you to come out. As for me, harboring the Assassins, the crime of having an affair with the Assassins is much more serious. ”

Because of the relationship between the Empress Dowager Yide, if she has a relationship with an ordinary man, she can still justify one or two, but if she has a relationship with the assassin, the people can tolerate it, and the royal family can't tolerate it. The person who set up the bureau and Jiang Dan just cooperated, thinking that Xiao Shao was seriously injured, and as soon as he came out, he could be taken away without waiting for him to reveal his identity, and I don't know if it was too naΓ―ve or stupid to say.

Xiao Shao frowned, he didn't think about it so much last night, and he didn't know that even a concubine in this mansion was so complicated, and he wanted to target Jiang Ruan and death everywhere, and when he was slightly angry in his heart, he also felt a little more pity for the girl in front of him. He paused, lowered his eyes, and said, "Then I will blackmail you out of the country now to prove that you have nothing to do with this matter." ”

"Then you might as well go out and kill all those people." Jiang Ruan said.

Xiao Shao was stunned, he didn't think about it, but killing people at the gate of Jiang's mansion might cause a lot of trouble in the future, not anything else, but some things could not be exposed for the time being, so as not to startle the snake.

Jiang Ruan patted his arm: "Don't worry, since I dared to keep you last night, I have already made preparations." ”

Xiao Shao stared at her, and now he felt more guilty about her, but he didn't expect that his momentary rashness would cause trouble for Jiang Ruan. He has 10,000 ways to get out, but they are not safe enough, and it is inevitable that he will leave a handle, which will also bring trouble to Jiang Ruan in the future. Hearing Jiang Ruan say this at this moment, I thought she had a good way, so she listened to it.

Jiang Ruan walked over to the soft couch in his inner room and lifted the thick mattress to reveal the thick and heavy bed board inside. She reached out and patted the bed board, groped all the way along the edge of the bed board, and the bed board that looked complete and without gaps was touched by her, and a crack appeared in the corner of the bed board, and she lifted it down hard, and the bed board was lifted tightly, revealing a small iron door with a small lock on it.

Jiang Ruan took out a small silver key from the foot of the bed on the other side, opened the iron lock, lifted the iron plate up, and said to him, "Go in." ”

It's a small secret passage.

"It's not a secret passage." Seeing Xiao Shao's stunned appearance, Jiang Ruan explained: "I don't have that much ability, just a storage warehouse. You go in and stay for a while. ”

This storage warehouse has been made little by little since she returned home, and when she was in the palace in her previous life, she was lucky enough to see a noble man do this, but he dug a secret passage. Jiang's mansion is embattled, and it is inevitable that someone will turn over her house while she is away, although she will not leave any handles, but this warehouse can occasionally come to the emergency.

Xiao Shao was also taken aback by Jiang Ruan's sudden entry into the warehouse, only listening to Bai Zhi's urging voice, he didn't hesitate at the moment, and immediately jumped in, and Jiang Ruan restored the bed board to its original appearance. Put the tent down.

Forsythia's voice was a little anxious: "Fourth Miss, the girl hasn't woken up yet, wait for the girl to freshen up and come out, and the makeup is not ...... right now."

"They are all sisters," Jiang Dan's voice came from afar, still as delicate as usual, but when you listen carefully, there is a little bit of joy that does not show a trace.

Forsythia's anxious appearance fell in Jiang Dan's eyes, and he felt a little more confident in his heart. Last night, the maid next to her went to pour water, and in the middle of the night, she saw the forsythia in Ruan Curry next door hurrying out, but it was like a small kitchen. I followed all the way with some curiosity, but I heard the forsythia instruct the small kitchen to make a bowl of brown sugar water.

This is also nothing peculiar, Jiang Ruan came to Kwai Shui, and it is good to drink a bowl of brown sugar water in the middle of the night when he is not happy. It's strange that not only that, Bai Zhi also asked people to fetch hot water. The maid thought that Jiang Ruan was going to wash her body in the middle of the night, and she unintentionally mentioned it to Jiang Dan when she turned around. Jiang Dan is a little scheming, Jiang Ruan has never been troublesome, and he has never been unhappy because Kwai Shui came, so in the middle of the night, it was too hard to work a few maids. She kept an eye on it and asked people to check it, and sure enough, she bought off Ruan Curie's mother-in-law who was sweeping the door, and learned that Bai Zhi poured a basin of water out, and the water still smelled of blood.

Jiang Dan intuitively felt that there must be some reason for this, it happened that her personal maid Yu'er had an elder brother on duty in the gatehouse, and when she turned back at night, she met the little maid in the gatehouse, saying that Yan Dong, the city gate leader in the capital, was leading people to catch assassins. As if he had been empowered, Jiang Dan immediately had a guess in his heart, afraid that the assassin was in Jiang Ruan's house right now.

Although I don't know why Jiang Ruan wanted to save the assassin, the brown sugar water and clear water should have been prepared for that moment. Jiang Dan himself guessed that he was trying to blackmail Jiang Ruan to do this at this moment, but for Jiang Dan, it was a hard-won opportunity. Jiang Ruan'an was in one day, she was very uneasy in her heart, now there is an opportunity to send it to the door, how can there be no reason? I immediately made up my mind.

It's just that Jiang Dan has always been a calm person, and he doesn't want to startle Jiang Ruan right now, and it will take some time to find the city gate leader, if something happens here, the assassin will escape, and the bamboo basket will draw water, which will make the city gate leader unhappy. After thinking about it, Jiang Dan decided not to say anything for the time being, calm down, and make plans when the sky is bright.

She only secretly sent someone to quietly "alert" the city gate leader, and it seemed that someone saw the assassin near Jiang's house. The city gate leader is not stupid, there is no official document approved by the government in the harsh winter, and he knows that he is at a loss, so he can't enter the Jiang family's mansion to take people at will, and Jiang Quan's grade is much higher than him. Even so, you can wait at the gate of Jiang's Mansion and catch turtles in an urn.

If it was usual, if these things were seen by Jiaojin Erjinsan, it would not have been possible. But it happened that Xiao Shao was injured last night, and the two of them went out of the house together to do what Xiao Shao explained, Tianzhu was busy giving Jiang Ruan a hand, but the person who taught Jiang Dan took advantage of the loophole. The porter kept watch all night and did not see anyone come out of Jiang Ruan's courtyard, and it became more and more determined that the assassin was still in Jiang Ruan's house.

Jiang Dan felt a burst of happiness in his heart, harboring the assassin and hiding the assassin in his boudoir, even the Empress Dowager Yide could not protect Jiang Ruan, and she might not accept her jade plate, and Jiang Ruan, whose reputation was ruined, what good future could she have in the future?

Thinking of this, her steps were faster, and when she walked to the door of Jiang Ruan's house, without waiting for Tianzhu and Dew to speak, she took the lead in lifting the curtain and said with a smile: "Big sister." ”

The room was extremely quiet, the corner of the table with a unique shape of the copper deer's mouth slowly exhaled Du Ruo's bitter aroma, the dark dark tent shook gently, and the figure of the person in it was swaying, and the silhouette of the woman could be vaguely seen.

Jiang Dan's gaze swept over the incense, and the corners of his lips unconsciously hooked, everyone knew that Jiang Ruan didn't like to use incense the most on weekdays. The incense that comes every month is not for Ruan Curie. Today, for the first time, I used this Du Ruo's fragrance, and the purpose was clearly revealed, what is it that is not to cover up the bloody gas?

Thinking like this, Jiang Dan took a few more steps inside: "Big sister? ”

"Fourth Miss," Dew stopped her, "The girl is still resting, she was not in good shape yesterday, and she is late today." ”

Jiang Dan laughed: "What kind of joke is this, it can be said that the big sister has woken up, but she hasn't dressed up yet, why is she lying down at this time?" It shouldn't be that Danniang is not welcome. As she spoke, she was about to move forward again, the dew drops were horizontal in front of her, Jiang Dan smiled, and Yu'er pulled the dew drops, her strength was surprisingly strong, and she smiled at the same time: "The eldest girl and the fourth girl are sisters, is it possible to be angry about such a trivial matter?" ”

"That's exactly what it is." When Jiang Dan said this, he had already walked to Jiang Ruan's side, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he reached out to lift the dark tent.

As soon as the dark tent was opened, revealing the scene inside, each of the four corners hung a delicate flower sac, the fragrance was rich, Jiang Ruan lay on the couch, only wearing a light-colored internal reward, his sideburns were slightly messy, and his eyes were closed.

Hearing the movement, she opened her eyes, a pair of black and white eyes stared at Jiang Dan, the water was as moist as a clear spring in the mountains, but there was an inexplicable deep meaning flowing.

Jiang Ruan's voice was slightly cold: "The fourth sister really doesn't treat herself as an outsider, and my account dares to be lifted at will." ”

Jiang Dan stood in place, his eyes widened in disbelief, only to see that the tent was empty, except for Jiang Ruan, how could there be anything else?
