The twenty-fourth round, the plan of bitter meat
"Bastard thing! Who allowed you to break in?! Lord Linyang scolded.
"The county lord spares his life, the slave maid has an important matter and is in a hurry to report to you."
"What's the matter? Say it! Rong Yun shouted.
"Big girl...... The eldest girl had just gone out for a ride, and the horse stepped on the ice ballast and slipped a little, and threw the eldest girl off, breaking her arm......"
"What do you say? Who broke their arm? Lord Linyang and Rong Yun's eyes widened together.
"It's the eldest girl, the eldest girl's arm was broken, just now the slave maid saw that the general personally took the eldest girl to the West Courtyard, and called someone to invite Imperial Doctor Zhao to come." The maid hurriedly replied.
"Hah!" The county lord of Linyang looked back at Rong Yun and smiled, "Haha...... Retribution! God has eyes! ”
"Mother." Rong Yun shook his head at the county lord of Linyang, and then instructed the maid who came in to report the news: "You go and inquire immediately, what is the injury of the eldest girl, and how she is injured!" Inquire about the matter as it is, and then talk back. ”
"Yes, the slave knows." The maid agreed, and hurriedly turned around and went out.
The county lord of Linyang looked at Rong Yun's tense face and asked curiously, "What, is there something wrong?" ”
"Mother, Rong Yue was injured at this time, do you think the emperor will suspect who is doing the ghost from it?" Rong Yun asked in a low voice.
"What the hell is going on out of it? This ......" The county lord of Linyang suddenly reacted that he was about to mention this matter and was in a hurry, "She broke her arm, someone must be doing something from it?" ”
Rong Yun sneered: "Rong Yue's riding and archery skills are very good, if no one makes a ghost, how can he fall for no reason?" And it was such a coincidence that he broke his arm when he fell off his horse? When she was a child, she fell from her horse not a hundred times, but dozens of times, how could she break her arm this time alone? Didn't my mother think this was too strange? ”
The county lord of Linyang was stunned when he heard this, and sighed after a while: "Yes! Rong Yue's girl is not Rong Zhao's little waste, that girl can do everything on horseback and archery, why did she fall while riding a horse today? Isn't this the slut's bitter ploy? She's so ruthless! In order to frame me, he was willing to attack his own flesh and blood? ”
Rong Yun leaned close to the ear of the county lord of Linyang and whispered: "These words are not easy to say now, let's ask someone to check them carefully." Rong Yue broke her arm, and she was afraid that she would not be able to return to Beijing with the emperor. This must have alarmed the emperor, and it was wrong for my mother to say anything at this time. So my son advises you, you should continue to pretend to be sick. ”
"Alas!" The county lord of Linyang slowly leaned back on the pillow and slowly closed his eyes.
……
"What?!" Rong Zhao, who was standing on the head of Suzhou City and facing the north admiring thousands of miles of ice and snow, suddenly turned his head and stared at Mei Ruo, "You say it again?!" ”
"Childe, the eldest girl's arm was broken, and the general and his wife called someone to inform Childe to go back quickly." Mei Ruo repeated what she had just said.
"Let's go!" Rong Zhao hurriedly turned around and rushed to the city tower.
Zhao Mu, who was originally standing beside him, was stunned for a moment before instructing the guards beside him: "You, take two people to quickly follow Gongzi Rong to General Rong's Mansion to see what is going on." ”
"Yes, lord." The guard agreed, holding the saber at his waist, and hurriedly chased Rong Zhao's figure away.
Zhao Mu stood on the city tower for a moment, and slowly walked down accompanied by another personal guard.
"Lord Wang, the eldest girl of the Rong family is the newly sealed Concubine Yue, she is injured, Her Majesty must be in a hurry, we should also go back as much as possible." The guard whispered.
"Mo Feng, you're right. We have to rush back to the palace as much as possible. Zhao Mu nodded slowly, and ordered unhurriedly: "Call someone to prepare the horse." ”
Rong Zhao did not take a comfortable carriage anymore, but asked someone to directly untie a horse, and hurried back to Xiliang City as soon as possible. Zhao Mu's personal guards and the guards of the Rong Mansion escorted Rong Zhao together, and Mei Ruo took the two family members back by car.
Along the way, Rong Zhao was so anxious that he wanted to break the horsewhip, so frightened that the guards behind him were all in their throats, for fear that this young master would accidentally fall off the horse.
When I came, I slept comfortably in a carriage and walked for most of the day before I arrived. When I went back, I was fast and non-stop, but I arrived at the door of the house in an hour.
"The third son is back!" The family members at the gate of Rong's mansion came forward to help Rong Zhao hold the reins of the horse.
Rong Zhao turned over and dismounted, and without saying a word, he ran directly inside. Zhao Mu's two guards couldn't get in, so they grabbed the reins of the horse and stopped in a circle.
"Who are the two?" The servants of the Rong Mansion saw that these two people were extraordinary, so they naturally did not dare to slack off.
"We are the guards of Prince Rui, and we were ordered to protect the third prince of Rong when he came back, and now it's okay, we will leave and go to the prince to return to our lives. Leave! As he spoke, the guard turned around and rode away with the reins of his horse.
Rong Zhao ran to Rong Yue's room in one breath, and saw Rong Yue leaning on the couch wearing a fox fur jacket, so he hurriedly rushed forward and half-knelt on the pedal, carefully holding her arm with a thick plaster, and tears fell before the words came out. For more than ten years, in this indifferent and cruel world, the only person who really loved him was lying here injured at the moment, and the long-lost sense of powerlessness and frustration hit his heart, and he was stubbornly entangled in a little bit of confinement, which made people suffocate.
"Sister......" Rong Zhao didn't want people to see his tears, so he lowered his head and buried his face in Rong Yue's swollen hands.
"I'm fine, just keep it for a few days." Rong Yue comforted.
Rong Zhao didn't speak, just lowered his head.
"That's it! How can such a big person still be like a child? Look at the snow on your body, don't hurry up and change your cloak! Rong Yue sighed.
Ye, who was guarding the side to wipe his tears, also instructed the Lu family beside him: "Go and change the cloak on Zhao'er's body, look at the cold air on this body!" ”
Only then did Rong Zhao get up, take off the cloak on his body, take off his boots again, change into soft shoes, and sit next to Rong Yue to ask about the whole story. Rong Yue sighed: "Maybe God is jealous of my good luck, as soon as I rode out of the house, it happened that the horse stepped on a piece of ice, and the horse's hooves slipped a little, I didn't pay attention, and I fell down." It was thrown to the left and broke the arm. ”
Ye Shi then scolded: "It's really damn by God!" I don't know which dog slave splashed water at the door, and actually formed a layer of dark ice under the snow. ”
"Someone did it on purpose?" Rong Zhao's eyes immediately widened.
"Mother said this casually, and you took it seriously. Where are so many deliberate? Rong Yue said busily.
"It must have been on purpose! Otherwise, where is the coincidence? After Ye finished speaking, he sighed leisurely, "I just said that the emperor would leave for Beijing in three days, and I am afraid that you will not be able to enter Beijing with His Majesty." ”
