Chapter 92: The Birthday Banquet (12)
It was getting late, and there were lights everywhere in the garden, and the candle flame was mixed with the aroma of wine, which seemed to add a bit of charm to this birthday feast.
Since Kang Lianlei retreated, Shen Luo only sat alone for a while, and soon someone came up to talk to her, these ladies were smiling on their faces, in fact, they were still testing whether Su Zhi had the idea of accepting concubines and concubines, naturally, they also tested Shen Luo's tone.
Fran took the earrings and left for a while, and when she came back, she saw several ladies around Shen Luo, and she couldn't see the fake appearance of these people, so she only retreated far away.
"Help! Help me!! Yes! Save—"
Everyone at the table gradually quieted down, as if they vaguely heard someone calling for help, everyone looked at each other, wondering if they had heard it wrong, until they found that everyone was puzzled, and then a lady whispered: "Did you hear any sound?" ”
"Help!!"
Before anyone could reply, there was another shrill cry from outside the garden, very terrible, for the sound came suddenly in the silence, and the timid girl was so frightened that she dropped the cup in her hand and made a dull thud against the low wooden table.
Holding his breath, someone suddenly said, "It seems to be Miss Kang's voice......"
Although today is Kang's grandmother's birthday banquet, but the old man is old, and it is night, it is inevitable that the wind in the garden is cold and cold, and he has already greeted the guests in the evening, and was supported to go back to his yard first.
Because there was a sudden silence in the garden, Mrs. Kang had gone to the back to urge some more good wine, but when she heard that there was suddenly no movement in front of her, she hurriedly walked back again, and when she saw that most of the guests were standing and did not speak.
"Mrs. Kang, where is your Miss Kang?" One asked.
Mrs. Kang's original surname was Qian, but Shangyin has a saying that she marries her husband and follows her husband since ancient times, and outsiders often call her wife by her husband's surname, and this husband's surname is only available in the main room, which is a particularly noble title. At this time, it was quiet again in the dark, and Mrs. Kang didn't know what was going on, so she only replied in a daze: "Little girl... The little girl just said that the earrings accidentally fell on the road, and she went to find them with the maid, but what did it matter? ”
"Someone! Help me!! ”
An even more poignant cry for help pierced the brief silence, and Mrs. Kang's body trembled visibly to the naked eye, and looking at her expression, it was obviously her daughter's voice. Mrs. Kang quickly reacted, and looked at the two maids behind her, her voice was already a little trembling: "Don't go and see it yet!" ”
Mrs. Kang's tone was quite stern, and the two girls turned around to leave, and Mrs. Kang hurriedly said, "Fool, bring a few guards with you!" As he spoke, he walked alone in the direction where Kang Lianlei made a sound, and Shen Luo hurriedly stopped Mrs. Kang at this time.
"Madam, I'll let Hua Yi accompany you." After Shen Luo finished speaking, Hua Yi had already appeared behind her at some point, and at this time, she took two steps forward, walked to Mrs. Kang's side, and blessed her body and saluted.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Mrs. Kang's face. But all big families, no matter what is going on at home, they are unwilling to let outsiders know, so as not to become the talk of idlers in the imperial city, and when they first heard Kang Lianlei's voice, no one dared to check it, for fear of breaking through the ugly affairs of the Kang family, and it would be difficult to see each other in the future, so they could only wait for Mrs. Kang to appear.
After thinking for only a moment, Mrs. Kang had already nodded and walked away quickly with Hua Yi. From the time everyone heard the cry for help to the present, in fact, it was only a short two or three sentences, but in the heart of a mother, it seemed as if an hour had passed, until the backs of Mrs. Kang and Hua Yi disappeared in front of everyone, and everyone whispered.
Although Kang Mingwei hated Kang Lianlei, what was happening now seemed to be not small, and there was no smile on her face, and Kang Xinxin had already left the table to report the matter to Kang Lu.
Shen Luo quietly looked at the expressions of everyone in front of him, the timid ones were a little panicked, most of them were curious, and none of them looked worried. No, there is one, that is, Mrs. Ma, who looks around and can't find her husband, but her worries are not for the Kang family.
Mrs. Ma looked anxious, turned around and whispered a few words in the midst of everyone's discussions, and the maid behind her hurriedly ran away, thinking that she was looking for Ma Lian.
Shen Luo only lowered his eyes and hid the sarcasm in his eyes.
"Princess..."Fu Lan let out a low voice, "Hua Yi said that there was only a team of guards patrolling the perimeter, but I was afraid that Ma Lian would not be able to do anything to Kang Lianlei." ”
Fran said this, but she couldn't hear her feelings. Although Kang Lianlei was not on good terms with them, and even heard her speak disrespectfully to Nan Rong at the wedding banquet before, which was very dirty, but she really wanted her to be defiled by a man who was about the same age as her father, and Fran felt a little unbearable in her heart, so she didn't know whether to feel lucky or unfortunate about those guards.
Fran's heart was tangled, but Shen Luo's expression was clear, she lowered her voice and said: "It's okay, with Ma Lian's skills and my medicine, even if the guards are there, they can't stop anything, even if Kang Lianlei can get away with a perfect body, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be innocent." ”
With a chuckle in her heart, Fran subconsciously looked at Shen Luo. Shen Luo was dressed in light pink, and under the background of the clothes, her delicate face looked particularly delicate and cute in the night, but her eyes were as cold as knives. It was the killer's eyes, there was no trace of sympathy and pity, only calculation and ruthlessness, Rao is Fran has known Shen Luo for more than ten years, and at this moment he couldn't help but feel fear in his heart.
In the past, she had seen her kill people in Nanrong, but that was when others wanted their lives first, but now? For the first time, she saw Ah Luo take the initiative to harm others, and still used such despicable means to destroy a woman's life.
No, maybe Ah Luo has always been like this, just because she was always by Rong Rong's side in the past, so I don't know how many hidden killing opportunities Shen Luo nipped in the bud for them, and Shen Luo's hands were already stained with blood.
The voice of refutation and noise gradually got closer, and then, the woman's suppressed desperate cry became clear with the appearance of Mrs. Kang, but she did not see the appearance of Kang Lianlei, and when Mrs. Kang appeared again, her eyes were red, and her anger was almost difficult to hide......
After speaking, he bowed to Shen Luo again: "Princess, please stay." ”
Shen Luo nodded and agreed. Mrs. Kang's words were very tactful, but the rest of the people could also hear that they were issuing an eviction order, although they were interested in inquiring, they didn't dare to blatantly not leave, so they had to stand up and say goodbye.
"Wait!" At this moment, a deep male voice sounded.
