Chapter 129: Something Happened in the Palace
Ruan Xian's eyes were split, and she stared at the place below in disbelief, her head was buzzing, oh my God, it couldn't be what she thought, right?
Yan Xu's expression was calm, but his earlobes were suspiciously crimson, his eyes flickered, looking at Ruan Xian's shocked expression. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Complex emotions were entangled in his heart, he finally took a deep breath, and pulled out a dagger from his waist without changing his face, and with the appearance of the dagger, something that was holding Ruan Xian somewhere in the lower part disappeared.
"Lady, it's a dagger."
Watching Yan Xu pull out the dagger, Ruan Xian's eyes were dumbfounded, and an indescribable emotion of disappointment or loss surged in her heart, she lowered her head in disbelief, staring at the part of her abdomen that touched Yan Xu, as if she wanted to stare through there.
The charming atmosphere dispersed like the wind, Ruan Xian's limbs were stiff, Yan Xu's eyes were deep, he pretended not to see the expression on Ruan Xian's face, and looked away a little evasively, "Lady, the night is a little late, let's go back?" ā
Ruan Xian seemed to have been woken up, woke up from Yan Xu, and hurriedly packed up her messy clothes, "Well, let's go back." ā
Her eyes flickered and her head was lowered, her face was hot, and she didn't dare to face her face directly. I was embarrassed and indignant in my heart, and I was embarrassed to dig a hole in the ground and bury myself, how could I think that I was whimsical just now...... The thing that thinks it's a man who thinks it's you......
Shame is almost breaking through the sky......
Just as she was thinking wildly, Yan Xu stepped forward to cover her with a cloak, took her little hand and was about to walk back, just two steps, Ruan Xian's steps stagnated, and her face suddenly changed blue and white......
"Why don't you leave?" Yan Xu looked puzzled.
Ruan Xian was motionless, her face was full of embarrassment, and she smiled reluctantly, "It's okay, I'll take a break." "Damn, I kissed too much just now, and now my legs are still weak......
Yan Xu smiled when she heard this, "The lady must be tired, so let's take you back for your husband." As she spoke, she stretched out her hands to hug her, Ruan Xian hurriedly took a step back and stretched out her hands to block it, "No, no, Yan Xu, I'll rest for a while, it'll be fine soon, let's go back for a walk together." ā
Yan Xu didn't care about her, and hugged her with both hands, Ruan Xian's double script was soft by nature, and this time she was surrounded by a strong masculine atmosphere, and he was also the man he loved, and suddenly the indescribable throbbing of his limbs swept over again.
She let out a long sigh, slowly leaned on his chest, and completely accepted her fate in her heart: she was really planted on this guy, and even such domineering made her like it.
Yan Xu's pace was steady and fast, and after a while, the two returned to the main courtyard.
As soon as he stepped through the gate, Qingshu hurried over, his face anxious, obviously waiting for Yan Xu to come back.
"Master, it's not good, there's an accident in the palace."
Yan Xu's expression was indifferent, "What happened?" ā
Qingshu hurriedly said, "There is news from the palace that the second prince has been poisoned, and now the palace is on alert, and the emperor is furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter to find out the murderer behind it." ā
Ruan Xian was shocked, and turned her head to look at Yan Xu, Yan Xu lowered her head, and the two looked at each other, both of them saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
"Go and lead my horse." Yan Xu immediately ordered.
Ruan Xian's face changed slightly, grabbed his hand, and said anxiously, "I'll go back to the city with you." ā
Yan Xu's face was calm, she shook her head calmly, and looked at her seriously, "No, you don't need to go back in a hurry, you will stay in Beizhuang tonight, and go back to the city tomorrow." ā
Ruan Xian couldn't help but be stunned when she looked at her, and immediately reacted, "Okay, I'll come back tomorrow, then, then you have to be careful." ā
Yan Xu nodded, his expression calm, "Don't worry." After speaking, he stroked Ruan Xian's cheek, looked at her deeply, and hurriedly left with Qingshu.
A tall horse had already been prepared at the door, Ruan Xian watched Yan Xu and Qingshu gallop away on horseback, and she slowly returned to the room.
That night, she had insomnia.
Tossed and fell asleep repeatedly, and early the next morning, he asked Qing'er and the person in charge of Zhuangzi to arrange a carriage, and the group hurried back to the city.
When I returned home, it was already three poles in the morning, and I asked the housekeeper if the master could go back to the house last night, and got a negative answer. She waited at home restlessly, the poisoning of the second prince was a big deal, and now that the night has passed, I don't know where the matter has been, whether the murderer has been found.
The emperor has been looking forward to it for so many years to get a second son, and it is impossible to say that it is like a jewel, and now there must be martial law in the palace. For a while, countless thoughts surged in Ruan Xian's heart, and she thought of one person after another in the palace in her mind, and suddenly thought of Zhu Hanyun.
Who would kill an innocent baby?
This must be the result of the struggle of forces in the palace, who has the greatest benefit if something happens to the second prince? Fan Guifei's mother is expensive by virtue of her son, and who is in the way, with Lan Guifei's arrogant and domineering style in the past, she has made countless enemies in the palace, if the second prince is gone, she will pour disaster on the eldest prince, this is obviously a plan to kill two birds with one stone.
Thinking like this, Ruan Xian's whole body was drenched in cold sweat.
But when you think about it, you think like this, wouldn't anyone else?
In any case, this matter is extremely unfavorable to the eldest prince. The eldest prince is now sixteen years old, and they are all adults, and the second prince is just a baby who is less than a year old, and the difference between the two is clearly incomparable.
Ruan Xian has now left the palace, she can only guess in her heart, she is a little worried about Yan Xu, and suddenly misses September, in the days of Izumo Palace, the eldest prince Zhu Hanyun's kindness to herself also reappeared in her mind. Distraught, she simply asked Qing'er to take the account books in the house, sat in Yan Xu's study, and began to try to study those account books.
The ancient ledgers were all recorded in words and calculated with an abacus, Ruan Xian opened the ledger and looked at it for a while, her head hurt, and her mind was a mess.
She simply took the pen and paper again, she was not used to using the brush, so she asked Qing'er to go to the kitchen to take a few pieces of black charcoal, sharpen the black charcoal, make a simple table, and calculate it according to the account book. The familiar Arabic numerals jumped on the paper, a little jerky at first, but gradually became more and more familiar with the rules, and she spent a whole afternoon calculating the monthly expenditure and income flow books of the ready-made shops in the house, and also checked and filled in the gaps and found a few small errors.
After looking at the sky, there was a lantern hanging on the cloister at the door.
The subordinates brought lunch in, and Ruan Xian summoned Qing'er to the side, "Is the master back?" Is there any news coming out of the palace? ā
Qing'er shook her head, "The slave maid has already asked Steward Wei, and there is no news from the palace." ā
Ruan Xian nodded thoughtfully, hastily passed the dinner, and couldn't fall asleep after bathing, so she simply took a candle and found a travel novel to sit at the bedside to read.
Yesterday, I found a lot of ancient novels and travelogues on the street, although it was a little difficult to understand, after reading it for a long time, it was also a little interesting, and gradually, Ruan Xian gradually entered the story. I don't know how long it took, the room was silent, silent, and suddenly, a wave of messy footsteps came from far and near......
"The master has returned home."
Ruan Xian's spirit was shocked, and she suddenly withdrew from her books and sat up straight.
