Chapter 19: The Harvest
Rong Xi didn't care about the duo outside the window, her fingers flipped over the messy papers, time passed little by little, and still found nothing, she just wanted to turn around and look for the bookshelf, she felt like she had stepped on something under her feet, and looked down to take advantage of the firelight to see that it was a yellowish piece of paper.
She had just raised her foot to walk when a blurry object on the paper caught her attention, and in the shadows under the table, a dark red thing made her heart skip a beat.
She picked up the page, looked at it carefully, then folded it carefully and put it in her arms.
Suddenly, a slight sound rushed into her eardrums, the soft, slippery sound of a fabric as it sliced through something wood, and she looked back!
There is a bookcase over there, with a shelf on it, and a lot of military books are placed on it, and now it is also turned into a mess, and below, there is a small cabinet, Rong Xi's eyes locked on the cabinet tightly, and slowly leaned over step by step.
The duo outside the window also stopped bickering, holding the hidden weapon in their hands, and the wind seemed to stop.
Rong Xi held the fire fold in one hand and the dagger in the other, his breathing slowed down and slowed down, his eyes were clear and bright, with a cold solemnity, "What person?" Come out! โ
There was a low shout, and no one answered, but the voice inside became more obvious, and there was a suppressed cry that wanted to scream but desperately held back.
"I'll count to three, and I'll come out on my own!" Rong Xi took two steps to the side, and the cabinet obviously moved, and there was no doubt that there was someone inside.
"Don't, don't kill me......" A cry that could no longer be controlled came out, which was a little terrifying in this dark night.
"If you don't want to die, shut up!" Rong Xi immediately interrupted her, and she could also hear from these words that this person should be from Rong Mansion.
In the middle of the night, the door of the cabinet was pushed open from the inside, and one hand was stretched out first, the fingertips were pale, the fingers trembled non-stop, the wrist was thin, and the exposed sleeve was also half-old green, which looked like a ring.
Sure enough, the man crawled out trembling, his hair was disheveled, his clothes were crumpled, his face was pale and bloodless, his lips were chapped and skinned, his eyes were hollow and full of terror, and his hands trembled under his sleeves.
"Who are you?" Kongxi raised the fire fold, and his face in the darkness slowly became clear.
"Miss!" The girl's eyes widened, her face was shocked, her brows were stretched, the panic in her eyes slowly receded, and bean-sized tears rolled down.
"Are you...... Plum fragrance? Rong Xi followed the memory and searched the face in front of him.
"Yes, it's me." Mei Xiang pounced all of a sudden, tears flowed down her face, she raised her hand to wipe it, the soil on her hand and tears mixed together, and suddenly added a little wolf bรจi.
Rong Xi remembered that this Mei Xiang was also born in the family, because of her beautiful appearance, stable personality, and smart literacy, she became Rong Hao's study, and she didn't usually have to do any heavy work, just clean the study, buy paper, pen, ink, inkstone or something.
"Miss, how did you come here? How do you dress up like this? Mei Xiang saw that it was her own young lady, she was happy and surprised for a while, and the horror she had received that day temporarily subsided, and her heart was sour, astringent and a little warm with a pair of teary eyes.
"Don't talk about me yet," Rong Xi waved his hand, "What's the matter with you?" Happened to go out and hid? Did you find anything out of the ordinary? โ
Mei Xiang looked at Rong Xi, her face was that face, but that bearing...... Shouldn't Miss cry to death when she encounters this kind of thing, and she can't say a word? How can you speak as short as you do now, but the meaning is accurate, and every sentence is the point?
However, who would it be if the person in front of him was not Miss?
She hesitated for a moment and replied: "I went out to buy an inkstone, the previous one was broken, Mrs. heard that there is a famous inkstone workshop in the six sites outside the city, so she specially sent me to buy it for the master, because the road is unfamiliar so it was delayed, and when I came back, I ......"
Mei Xiang's tears flowed even more fiercely, she kept choking, her thin shoulders kept trembling, Rong Xi pursed her lips, reached out and patted her shoulder, and comforted her wordlessly.
Mei Xiang sobbed and continued: "I was too scared to enter the door, and then ...... Everyone was escorted away, and I saw that the front door was sealed, and I had nowhere to go, so I sneaked in while the back door was not guarded, and wanted to wait for the matter to pass before going out......"
Rong Xi looked at this girl, thinking that she was scared stupidly, she didn't run fast when she encountered this kind of thing, and she actually came into the house, that is, she came by herself, otherwise, she would have to starve to death even if she was not discovered by others, but it is no wonder that women in ancient times rarely went out, and it was possible to be at a loss for a while.
She looked out the window, not knowing what time it was, "Did you notice anything unusual, before this happened?" โ
"Abnormal ......" Mei Xiang lowered her head and thought carefully, Rong Xi looked at her thin appearance, sighed and said, "Okay, I'll rescue you first, and then talk slowly." โ
"Help me? Get out? Mei Xiang's eyes widened in shock.
Rong Xi stopped talking nonsense, pinned the dagger to his waist, stretched out his hand to grab her and said, "Follow me." โ
Leng Fifteen and Leng Fifteen glanced at each other, "Yes, our life is here......
Rong Xi pulled Mei Xiang and just walked to the door, Leng Fifteen and Leng Fifteen appeared in front of the door like two shadows, Mei Xiang was startled and covered her mouth with her hand.
"Princess, give her to us." Leng Fifteen took a step forward and said.
Rong Xi was not polite, nor did she shirk, now is not the time to be hypocritical, she nodded, "That's all for today, let's go!" โ
The four of them returned the same way, but it was smooth along the way, but Mei Xiang turned her head to look at Rong Xi from time to time, the dark Rong Xi was as light as a flying swallow, with a thin waist and long legs, and every time she bounced and jumped, it was a perfect arc.
Miss...... When will this be?
Of course, Rong Xi knew Mei Xiang's surprise, but she wouldn't bother to spend time explaining this, she was her, and she never thought of pretending to be another person, these people had no other choice but to accept their current self.
Leng fifteen put down the plum fragrance on his back, arched his hand to Rong Xi and said, "Princess, I'm going to retire." โ
Rong Xi waved his hand, and Leng Sixteen secretly slandered in his heart, this woman ...... This bearing and movement are really similar to the prince.
"Hey, looking forward to it, right?" Leng Fifteen smiled in the dark.
"What to expect?" Leng Sixteen was confused.
"Guess what day the prince and the princess will release their suspicions, if this couple joins forces, how many people will be harmed?" Leng Fifteen pursed his lips and waved his hand like Leng Yixiu.
Leng Sixteen didn't speak, just looked in the direction of Rong Xi with slight eyes, and released his suspicions? The prince to the princess...... It didn't seem to be anything suspicious, but he was very concerned, thinking about Leng Fifteen's idea, he pinched a cold sweat for those who offended the prince and princess.
