After Wan Pei'er left, Fran saw that Rong Rongci was still a little distracted, so she called softly, and Rong Rongci came back to her senses.

"Let's go."

"Where?"

Rong Rongci smiled: "Don't you want to slap you?" I have a more interesting idea than a slap. ”

Fran's eyes lit up when he heard this, and without saying a word, he followed Rong Rong's steps and turned back towards the way he came.

The two walked around the Yulu Garden twice, and saw Ma Linglong whispering something to her friend not far from Ye Tingcheng, and her eyes fell on Ye Tingcheng a few steps away from time to time.

Fran glanced at it disdainfully: "Heh, it's really a dog can't change eating, this time I'm talking about Ye Chengcheng again, I like to hear it." ”

Rong Rongci only laughed at Fran's small belly and chicken intestines, and then whispered a few words in her ear, Fran nodded, with a look of Top Gun, obviously very satisfied with Rong Rongci's idea.

After Fran left at his command, Rong Rongci quietly left the crowd and disappeared into darkness.

There are many paths in the palace and palace, and the banquet has already passed halfway, so many gardens that are a little farther away from Yulu Garden are already dim, and the broken jade lake that is closer to Yulu Garden is not many people because it is late, and many palace lights have been extinguished at this moment, and it has been darkened a lot.

Ma Linglong shrank and walked to the side of the Broken Jade Lake step by step.

A moment ago, she heard the news that the regent was here to enjoy the lake view, thinking that if she could meet the prince by chance, something might happen, so she hurriedly left everyone alone and came to the broken jade lake.

At this moment, there was no one on the edge of the broken jade lake, and there was no shadow of the regent, and as soon as the wind blew, the rockery by the lake made a whimpering sound, which added a bit of weirdness.

Ma Linglong shivered a few times, feeling uneasy in her heart, and standing by the lake, she felt even more cold.

Looking at the cold and silent lake, Ma Linglong felt retreating in her heart, and was about to turn around, when she suddenly heard the sound of a gust of wind behind her, and before she had time to look, she was slapped on the back, and her body was immediately unstable, and she fell into the broken jade lake in a flash!

There was a 'plop', followed by the cold lake water that overflowed her body, wrapped in a little algae, and struggled into her mouth and nose.

"Help, help! Save... Not...... Help me! ”

Although it was already halfway through, the banquet was still very lively, and Fran was leading the guards to search for something one after another, and the voice was extremely noisy.

In such a situation, even on the road from Yulu Garden to Broken Jade Lake, Ma Linglong's close maid was stunned and could only hear the noise of the guards searching, and no one heard Ma Linglong's intermittent cry for help when she was choked by the water.

Rong Rong's slender figure was hidden in a tall tree in the garden, and Ma Linglong, who was on the verge of suffocation, naturally did not notice it.

Just when Ma Linglong thought that she was going to die, Fran's voice came: "Ah, why does it seem that someone is calling for help?!" ”

Ma Linglong hurriedly shouted 'help' with her last strength, and finally, the guards rushed to the lake and saw Ma Linglong who was struggling desperately, so they rescued her.

The maid received the news and immediately rushed over, but was beaten down by Ma Linglong, and actually cried.

There was a lot of noise by the broken jade lake, and Rong Rongci only walked over under the leadership of Fran Shi Shiran at this time, and when he saw Ma Linglong's appearance, he immediately showed an anxious look on his face, and took a few steps forward.

"How did this happen? Good and dignified, what are you doing here to Broken Jade Lake? ”

Ma Linglong shook her body, wrapped the clothes sent by the maid on her body, and didn't dare to look at Rong Rong's words with a weak heart, so she only said: "I drank some fruit wine, and I was a little drunk... I want to come and sober up......"

"Why didn't the maid follow?"

The crying maid hurriedly fell to the ground and kept kowtowing: "The princess spares her life!" The princess spares her life! ”

Ma Linglong was afraid that her maid's brain would be convulsed, and she was afraid of telling her purpose, so she grabbed the words: "Yes, it's me, it's me who won't let her come with me......"

Rong Wangci squinted, knowing what Ma Linglong was thinking, but he didn't ask again: "Okay, Miss Ma should be careful in the future, in such a dangerous place, don't come to sober up alone." ”

"It's... Princess Xie cared for ......"

When speaking, the maid and Ma Linglong kept their heads down, but fortunately, Concubine Yu got the news, and the person sent over arrived soon and hurriedly sent the two out of the palace.

After Ma Linglong left, Fran saw that the guards were still standing in place, and hurriedly walked over and ordered: "Thank you for helping the princess find the hairpin, but the princess just told me that she forgot, it was in her sleeve, it was really hard work, this bit of silver, please laugh." ”

As he spoke, Fran took out a few ingots of broken silver from his sleeve, but the guard took a half step back and waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare, it's our honor to serve the princess regent, and my subordinates don't dare to accept it." ”

Rong Bang Ci saw that the guard really didn't dare to ask for it, so he nodded to Fran, and Fran took back the money, and all the guards retreated.

After everyone left, Fran came to Rong Wangci's side, with a puzzled expression: "Princess, you know that they won't accept this silver, why do you have to let me give it, and you touched my nose..."

Rong Rongci looked at Fran's appearance, with a smile on his face, but he sighed: "Hey... Although I have not been in Shangyin for a short time, I have already noticed that the relationship between Concubine Yu and Su Zhi is not close, and the palace does not dare to accept bribes from Yinliang, this is the rule set by Su Zhi, and I do this for self-preservation. ”

"Self-preservation?"

"Yes. There will definitely be people from Concubine Yu among those guards, and I know Su Zhi's rules, but I defy the law, this matter will definitely reach the ears of Concubine Yu, and she will think that I am not as close to Su Zhi as rumored, so she will not even know this, so she will not regard me as Su Zhi's person. ”

"Princess......

Fran muttered, and suddenly felt a little sour in her heart, feeling that it was not fair to her own prince, but she understood that now that Shangyin was in danger, she really couldn't make the concubine an enemy.

Rong Rongci glanced at Fran, knowing what she was thinking, and her heart was also uncomfortable, so he sighed again.

After a while, the two of them went to Yulu Garden, but when they were about to arrive, Fran asked again: "Princess Fangcai, you can obviously send someone to send Ma Linglong back, but you told Concubine Yu, is it also for self-protection?" ”

Rong Rong smiled softly, and looked at Fran with a little more approval in his eyes.

"Yes, although I have this right, I can't abuse it. In the palace is the territory of Concubine Yu, and it is best to leave everything to her, if I give orders just because I have this right, wouldn't I be blatantly provoking her absolute position in the palace? ”
