Chapter 288: Her Choice
When the door was opened, several officers and soldiers rushed in and looked around.
"Aren't you staying with a man and a woman? What about men? A female soldier asked in a loud voice, and the rest of the female soldiers looked around at the room.
"It's just me here." Pang Ruolan's afterglow swept through the room, and she was shocked to find that Yu Yu had flipped out of the window.
"Where's the man with you?" The female soldier looked at Pang Ruolan and observed her expression.
"I'm not with him, how do I know?" Pang Ruolan sat back at the table and poured herself a cup of tea.
"Let's go!"
The officers and men rummaged around, opened the cabinet door and found that there was really no room for hiding, so they left the room.
Although it was strange why these officers and soldiers seemed to be coming for Youyou, Pang Ruolan didn't think much about it, after all, Youyou was a person in the martial arts, and now she was reused by Yin and Yang, and it was normal for the court to really find fault.
"Are they gone?" Yu Yu flashed into the room through the window, quietly pushed open the door, and looked towards the first floor of the inn.
"They seem to be coming for you." Pang Ruolan couldn't help but speak, "Are you doing something else for Yin and Yang?" ”
"This ......," before he could reply, there was a sound of the tapping of the shoes of the officers and soldiers in the inn, which seemed to be coming towards the house.
"I'll go out and deal with it." Pang Ruolan motioned for Xiao You to hide first, and opened the door by herself.
"You guys!" Pang Ruolan, who was forcibly pushed away by the officers and soldiers, couldn't help but be dumbfounded, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Search for me! The news can't be inaccurate! With a wave of his arm, the remaining dozens of officers and soldiers rushed into the room and rummaged through them.
"This is my room, and I'm here. What are you searching for? Pang Ruolan frowned slightly, and was glad that she escaped from the window in time.
"Go back to your lord, no suspicious person was found."
"Back to my lord, there are no suspicious men in the other rooms."
The officers and soldiers who had completed the search replied to the woman one after another, but the woman fell into deep thought.
"How can you not find anyone?! This message is very accurate, and it is impossible for people to disappear in such a short period of time! The leading officers and soldiers couldn't help muttering to themselves, "If this person can't be found, there will be no progress in the affairs of the former princess, and we won't survive to noon tomorrow!" ”
"The former princess?" Pang Ruolan couldn't help but be surprised, it turned out that these officers and soldiers were looking for it like crazy. It is to search for the news of the former princess. But why are they looking for a man? Could it be the henchman of the former princess?
"That's right! Let's hurry to the kitchen! If this man is really the confidant of the former princess, he will definitely not let his whereabouts be exposed, and he will poison all the living people in this inn at all costs at this moment. Kill somebody to do away with a witness! The leader of the officers and soldiers patted their heads. Hurriedly rushed to the kitchen with several female soldiers.
"Strange. Could it be that the person they are looking for is really quiet? There was no time to think about it, Pang Ruolan followed the steps of the officers and soldiers. Ran to the kitchen together.
"Search for me!" After the order was given by the leading officers and soldiers, the women hurriedly investigated, and after a while, they found white powder on the edge of the water tank.
"Catch a cat and test it for poison!" The leading officers and soldiers signaled their subordinates to catch the cat raised by the innkeeper to test the poison, which attracted the innkeeper's sad cry, but they were helpless.
"Meow!" Meow screamed, was forcibly poured into the water tank, instantly foamed at the mouth, fell to the ground and died.
"This ......" Pang Ruolan was shocked by everything in front of her, and saw that the officers and soldiers led by her suddenly laughed, "I'm right!" I deduce that he is still at the inn at the moment, and there is no time to escape! ”
"Perhaps, he's still in this kitchen!" The officers and soldiers at the head looked at the huge kitchen, "Everyone is looking in these small kitchens, if you find a suspicious man, bring me quickly!" ”
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
The officers and soldiers were ordered to start the search, Pang Ruolan couldn't tell why, and vaguely felt that something was about to happen, something was about to change.
Looking at the officers and soldiers who were frantically searching for suspicious men, listening to the noisy shouting of the kitchen, and raising their eyes, they saw a faint figure visible on the beam overhead.
"......" suppressed the shock in her heart, and countless thoughts flashed through Pang Ruolan's mind.
Her water-colored eyes seemed to see through the deep and apologetic eyes that he had approached her before, and it had been deliberately arranged.
He has always been loved and moved by himself as a younger brother, and it was a deliberate plan from the moment he met; This beam is high above, if there is no profound martial arts, how can it be avoided in an instant, so that day in the secluded mansion, was Mei Xiang's incident intentional, or was it an accident?
It turns out that his departure, his sudden appearance, and all his changes are all plotting for the princess of the previous dynasty? It turns out that he keeps saying that one day he wants to listen to his explanation, is it just to prepare for today? It turns out that he is the person of the former princess, so is he, Youlan, Youlan, and Lord Qincha, just one of the people who are used by him? It turns out that he is not only a pawn of the empress, but also, his.
Pang Ruolan wanted to control the sadness in her heart and suppressed the tears in her eyes, but she couldn't convince herself, her eyes were red, and she finally cried when she looked at the gloom above her head.
"Why are you crying?" The officers and soldiers at the head suddenly looked at Pang Ruolan and asked suspiciously.
"I've had allergies to my eyes since I was a child, and just now you rummaged through things too hard, and all the dust that was kicked up drifted into my eyes." Pang Ruolan felt sad in her heart, but she was glad that her afterglow had just swept over the officers and soldiers led by her, and she turned her head to look at them in time.
"I see, all of you rummage! If you can't find anyone today, don't sleep! The officers and men at the head shouted in frustration, directing the people who were in a hurry to search.
If the princess of the previous dynasty is reinstated, what will happen to you, a chess piece of the court, and this Pang Ruo's surname? For the prince of the dynasty and the mother who raised him since childhood, how do you protect them?
On the one hand, it was a quiet thing that once made her heart move but was just a use, and on the other hand, she couldn't get rid of the surname Pang Ruo and the biological mother of this body, thinking like this, Pang Ruolan couldn't help but fall into the battle between heaven and man.
There was a slight sound above her head, and when she raised her eyes, she saw a sad expression, as if she wanted to show up and fight, Pang Ruolan couldn't help but soften.
"When are you going to find out?" Pang Ruolan turned around and shouted loudly to the officers and soldiers led by him.
"We're doing what we're told! Ordinary people are not allowed to interfere with onlookers! With the impatient shouting of the leading officers and soldiers, several officers and soldiers stepped forward to take Pang Ruolan away.
"Ben Qin was ordered to investigate the matter of the former imperial princess, and it is not your turn to steal merit here! As for the court, I will give an explanation! Pang Ruolan showed her Qincha waist card, and her face was displeased.
"This ...... If Lord Qincha wants to grab the credit, the small ones can't compete. However, this is a matter of the safety of the imperial court, and please allow us to assist in the investigation. The officers and soldiers led by Pang Ruolan were shocked when they saw Pang Ruolan's waist card, but they still insisted on bargaining.
"The credit belongs to Ben Qincha alone, whoever searches here is to disturb Ben Qin's case! If the empress is to blame, will you bear it or me? Pang Ruolan snorted coldly, her face unkind. (To be continued.) )
