Chapter 274: Dilemma

Ruyao frowned and was silent, Xiao Gu sighed, "Actually, he is right, this thing is a curse, and it is hot for you to hold it......"

"I'll give it to you, but you remember, if you dare to hurt anyone present, my mother's underground soul will not let you go!"

Ruyao's voice sounded, and the next moment, the wooden box was thrown into Jing Yu's hand.

He weighed his weight and glanced at Xiao Gu deeply, his eyes were full of complicated feelings, and then he straightened up, opened the door and left slowly with the support of Qingyi.

Xiao Gu first breathed a sigh of relief like collapse, and then went to check on Lan Ning, fortunately, Qingyi's hand strength was not great, and under her massage, Lan Ning finally woke up.

"Fortunately, Lan Ning is fine."

Xiao Gu breathed a sigh of relief, but he was a little afraid to face Ru Yao, but Ru Yao took the initiative to speak, and the hand holding the handkerchief trembled slightly, "So, my mother, Mrs. Zhang, is also your person?" ”

"Sort of."

Xiao Gu replied - Mrs. Zhang and her uncle are both staunch loyal ministers of Emperor Jianwen, and in this sense, she is indeed her own person.

"She's really ......"

Ruyao seemed to want to ask something, but she didn't ask after all-Xiao Gu knew that she wanted to ask, did Mrs. Zhang really love and raise her so much just to conclude an alliance and be loyal to the royal heir?

Mrs. Zhang, did you really love her?

This question lingered in Ruyao's heart, and she asked it out loud unconsciously, Xiao Gu felt pity in her heart, but she couldn't answer it after all.

"Actually, my father, like your mother, didn't tell me. Use me as a pawn in marriage. ”

She whispered, unable to see Ruyao's face behind her, but heard her sigh softly. In an instant, the two women seemed to have a tacit understanding and tenderness of sympathy, "You too?" ”

"My father is a bastard and never treats our mother and daughter as relatives, but he gave me this hand before he died......

Xiao Gu sneered, "I don't know if he thinks this mission is dangerous and needs me to die, or if he thinks it's a supreme honor." Only my eldest daughter is worthy. ”

The customs of the Ming Dynasty, the eldest daughter has always been more decent than the younger sister behind, and the clan wives of a clan generally tend to marry the eldest daughter with the courtesy. Even Zhu Di's original partner, Queen Xu, is also the eldest daughter of Xu Da, the founder of the country.

There is no way to prove that people die, and no one can predict what Hu Yan thinks. Speculated privately from Xiaogu. It should be that there are many possibilities for the former, but the latter is not unreasonable - in order to show his loyalty, Hu Yan is the second daughter of a concubine even if he likes the red note, and it is disrespectful to marry the royal family.

The past was like smoke, Xiao Gu didn't want to pursue it, Ru Yao's eyes flashed a trace of sadness and softness, "I'm sorry, I also rashly doubted you before." ”

She commanded in a low voice. The voice was a little choked, and then as if to cover it up. He said stubbornly: "Although we are clear, but this time to save you, you owe me again, and you must get it back with interest in the future." ”

****

A group of people were tired and quietly went back to Tang Le Yuan, but near the middle of the road, a person suddenly rushed out, startling everyone.

"Chu Lan, it's you!"

Bihe patted his chest and still had palpitations, "Who are you looking for when you run out so late?" ”

"I have something to do with Xiao Gu...... She, her hometown has relatives to come to see her. ”

Chu Lan held the letterhead in her hand, and her hurried face was not good-looking, "Say that your cousin is critically ill." ”

"What?"

Xiao Gu suddenly frowned, this code is an emergency that she agreed with various secret lines!

When I got the letterhead, I was even more shocked - it was actually sent by Yuan Jin!

The words in the letter were unknown, it seemed that they were talking about the critical illness of their relatives, Xiao Gu ran to the tea stove, scooped a spoonful of the remaining rice soup, smeared it on the letterhead, and the handwriting gradually appeared: only two lines, it turned out to be that the imperial court had received a tip, and it was raiding Lan Qingban's side, and the next target might be the general stronghold of the Jinlan Society!

She gritted her teeth and thought for a moment, and without saying a word, handed over the Lan Ning she was holding in her hand to Ruyao's master and servant, and hurried out of the house.

"There's chaos in the streets, don't go!"

Ruyao wanted to call her to stop, but Xiao Gu shook his head and kept at his feet, "I'm going to save people!" ”

After speaking, the person has already gone away, Ru Yao looked at her figure, her eyes flashed with concern, and more complicated envy - like her, agile, free to come and go, smart and capable, is what Yuan Gongzi really cares about, right?

And he was forced to be trapped in this deep mansion compound, spending his obscure youth......

"She's only afraid of danger!"

This was the first thing Lan Ning said after waking up after hearing about the situation!

She finally woke up under the hot compress of Bihe, her eyes were so anxious that she was sparking, but the blood on her forehead began to dizzy again, and she could only lie down unwillingly after all-she was self-aware, such a self can only be a burden to Xiao Gu!

She continued in a low voice: "The imperial court is arresting people, and she is so weak to go out, I'm afraid that something emergency has happened!" ”

****

In the dark night, the horse's hooves roared, and the foot soldiers followed in front of the horse, and the leather armor weapons sounded sonorously between the movements, reflecting the pine torches and the air death lanterns at the front of the team, which was particularly thrilling.

Xiao Gu crouched under the eaves, looking at the direction they were heading, his eyes were shining, and the cold glow of murderous intent flashed - it was indeed the east of the city.

There is only one Lan Qingban who has anything to do with the Jinlan Club!

Seventh brother Qin Yao!

She felt a pang in her heart, and then thought that those female dependents were still hiding next door to Lan Qingban!

Originally, it was just a temporary stay in the warehouse, but Qin Yao hid them and even the people of the Jinlan Society didn't know about it, so it was difficult to settle it, just like the dowry of Mrs. Zhang, who was inherited by Yao, there was a rouge embroidery shop on that street, which was about to go out of business because of poor management. This shop is not in the downtown because of its remoteness, and it does not make money, Mrs. Tai and Wang's have been upside down several times and no one has taken over, so the lack of interest is returned to the original shopkeeper, who is Mrs. Zhang's companion, honest but has no idea.

Xiao Gu rented this shop from Ruyao in the name of his relatives before, because he took a fancy to it and Lan Qingban only separated by an alley, barely a neighbor, and it had a large two-entry courtyard, which was originally the embroidery room and sleeping room of the embroidery girl.

Because of this period of exhaustion, I can only place the women here in the name of embroidery, although there will be flaws, but the shopkeeper and his wife are Mrs. Zhang's people, and there will be no problem with loyalty.

The other members of the Jinlan Society have a way to hide, but these people are too talkative and unable to protect themselves, which is a huge burden, but Xiao Gu is never willing to abandon them, and with Qin Yao and Lan Qingban's care, it should be no problem to drag this formation.

But now the officers and soldiers are obviously going there, is there a problem with the Lanqing class or the shop? Was it by accident, or was both exposed?! (To be continued......)
