Chapter 013: Secret Order
Jiang Wanluo didn't reply directly, but walked up to Changge, took one of his sleeves and sent it to Chen Lan, and said in a harmonious voice: "Lord Chen smells the sleeve of the third young master, what does it smell like?" β
Chen Lan put her nose up and sniffed it, and said, "It's the smell of tortoiseshell incense, so what?" β
"Just now, in an open place like the back garden, the slaves and maids could smell this fragrance wafting out of the third young master's clothes, which showed that the smell of this incense was extremely strong. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info and the jade slave in the hands of the adult just recognizes it, it is the best Roland jade. Luo Lanyu is the most condensed and concentrated, if it is the young master's belongings, it should also be dyed with a strong aroma, and it will not dissipate for a while. Jiang Wanluo said, looked at the jade pendant in Chen Lan's hand again, and said, "Adults can smell the jade, but there is a smell of tortoiseshell incense?" If not, it must have been stolen by the murderer early in the morning and deliberately stayed at the scene to frame the third young master. β
Chen Lan smelled the jade pendant in her hand and really didn't have a taste, if she forcibly led someone again, she would be at a loss, so she snorted contemptuously, reluctantly bowed to Wen Chongxiao, and said in a deep voice: "General Wen, Fang is Chen's carelessness, and he has offended a lot." β
Seeing this, Wen Chongxiao also attached a smug smile on his face, and said: "Lord Chen is also responsible, and now the suspicion of the dog has been cleared, but who is the real murderer, and Lord Lao Chen will verify it on his behalf." β
"This is nature." Chen Lan felt that her face was gloomy, and after hastily coping with it, she ordered her subordinates to carry the corpse and withdraw from the general's mansion together.
After Chen Lan left, everyone in the back garden gradually dispersed, and the fainting mother Li had been woken up by the medical officer with a silver needle, but she still couldn't stop crying, saying that she had a hard life, was young and widowed, and now she has no daughter, how can she live. Princess An Ning and a few little maids were relieved on the side.
Wen Chongxiao still looks preoccupied, the murderer has not yet been caught, and the motive is not known, Ruyi is dead, I don't know if there will be another one. In the blink of an eye, I suddenly remembered Jiang Wanluo, who had just rescued the Wen family, because she called her forward and said, "I can't imagine that you, this little girl, still have such skills, where are you on an errand now, why haven't I seen you?" β
Jiang Wanluo hurriedly pretended to be obedient and replied, and said: "Wanluo has been in the mansion for less than half a month, and the master has naturally never seen it, and the slave and maid are the official maids rewarded by the emperor to the general's mansion." It's just that I accidentally broke a bowl of soup that day, and I was punished to go to the back garden to think about it. β
Wen Chongxiao nodded and said lightly, "It's just a bowl of soup that I missed, and I will be punished heavily." Today's things are thanks to you, so it is better for you to think for yourself, and ask for a reward, and I will depend on you. β
Jiang Wanluo was overjoyed, and wanted to mention the matter of returning to the main garden, but saw the guards come to report that there was a word from the palace, and asked Wen Chongxiao to enter the palace as soon as possible.
Wen Chongxiao didn't dare to delay at this moment, so he said to Jiang Wanluo: "Unfortunately, there is something in the palace, write down your credit, and it's not too late to wait for the old man to come back and reward it." So he went with the guard.
Jiang Wanluo sighed silently, thinking to herself, since Wen Chongxiao had already promised, he should not regret it. So he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Stinky girl, thank you for today's incident", Wen Changge's voice became down, and he looked related. No matter how you say it, Du Ruyi has also played with him since he was a child, if it weren't for the disturbance caused by the marriage, the two would have been confidants, and now seeing Ruyi being poisoned by someone in a good manner, he didn't feel sad and blamed himself.
"Thank you, I didn't do this for you." Jiang Wanluo replied lightly, thought about it, and said, "If you think of me well, help me remind your father that he still owes me a reward." β
The evening clouds paint the sky with a delicate rouge, crickets squirt in the tree pits, the begonia flowers bloom just right, the pond may occasionally hear a little frog sound, and the general's mansion is restored to a brief calm after the wind and waves.
After dinner, Jiang Wanluo sat alone by the pond and frolicked the carp frolicking among the lotus leaves, when a small pebble suddenly flew behind her and fell into the water, causing a clear ripple.
"Qing Yu?" Jiang Wanluo sprinkled the fish food in her hand into the pool, and saw that there was no one around, before she stood up and said in a low voice: "Why did you come!" I've been trapped in this garden for almost half a month, and it's really a shame that the heavens and the earth are not spiritual. β
Qing Yu smiled faintly and said lightly: "I know everything about you, but I was ordered to keep vigil in the main garden, and it is inconvenient for my ears and eyes to come out during the day, and I really didn't find a chance to be on an errand at night." β
"Forget it, I don't blame you, anyway, now I have a way to get out." Jiang Wanluo smiled with relief, and said, "By the way, did you go to the back garden today, do you think I'm quite witty!" When the time comes, don't forget to say a few kind words to me at the young master and lady of your family. β
Qing Yuruo was silent for a moment, and said with a straight face: "If you let Chen Lan lose face today, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?" β
"I already have a lot of troubles, and I don't have to worry about him anymore." Jiang Wanluo curled the corners of her mouth and said, "Don't forget that you and I are nominally the people who were rewarded by the emperor to the General's Mansion, and it is not easy for Chen Lan to embarrass us." What's more, he helped the young master send us to the General's Mansion, in case your and my identities are exposed, he naturally can't get out of it, right? β
"Thisβthat's what you said," Qing Yu paused thoughtfully, "I came here to tell you that the young master has flown a pigeon to pass the book, and he will be waiting for you by this pond tonight." β
Jiang Wanluo was taken aback when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What is he doing here?" If there is something to do, you can fly the pigeon to pass the book to you, you will naturally inform me, the general's mansion has just been murdered, and there are many guards, why should he take this risk himself? β
Qing Yu smiled mysteriously and said, "The young master naturally has his intentions in arranging it like this. Maybe there's something I don't even know about, and I'm going to give you a separate order. β
At this point, the two of them vaguely heard the footsteps of a group of guards in the corridor on the other side of the pond, and Qing Yu didn't have time to say goodbye, so he immediately jumped onto the eaves and disappeared in an instant.
Nightfall, sub-hour.
Jiang Wanluo waited by the pond early, although she was nervous, but when she thought that she would be able to see the face of the beautiful young man in the prosperous world again, she had a little inexplicable anticipation in her heart.
After a while, she saw a black shadow standing in front of her, although her mouth and nose were covered by a veil, her bottomless eyes still made Jiang Wanluo recognize it at a glance.
"Young master, is that you?" Jiang Wanluo asked in a low voice
"It's inconvenient to talk here", Shangguan Yuntian didn't fall, he wrapped her between his arms with one hand, and jumped up lightly, Jiang Wanluo was pulled by him painfully, but she couldn't move at all, she only felt the cool night breeze whistling across her cheeks until she stood still.
