Chapter 50: Murder by the Sword

Yao Duran said: "Yes, Your Highness's benevolent and righteous act will be praised by the people of the world." ”

Ning Wanshu sneered: "You, who doesn't know that behind this act of benevolence and righteousness, there is also a hero of yours. Now everyone in the military camp knows that the suppression of bandits was admonished by my sister to His Royal Highness, and this plan to invite the king into the urn is also a clever plan offered by my sister to His Royal Highness. ”

"Yes, the slave and maid have heard everyone talk about it. said that Mrs. Qiao made a plan, and His Royal Highness made a contribution, so that he outwitted the empty mountain. Green Lang echoed.

Yao Duran listened to it, and sighed slightly in her heart, as soon as this incident came out, there were many people and mixed rumors, which broke her usual low profile. Thinking about it, she smiled faintly and changed the topic: "Sister Ning, I have seen that Mrs. Du has been getting more and more struggling these days, I think it should be about to give birth, right?" ”

Ning Wanshu said: "Yes, her delivery date is in June, and now it's May 28, I don't know if she can survive until Nanqian is reborn, if she gives birth on the road, it's really inconvenient." ”

"It's really hard to say, but it's a blessing to be running around like this with your body in your arms, and not to be born prematurely." Ning Wanshu's maid Qiu Yan said.

A few people chatted for a while with the rickety carriage before they quieted down and closed their eyes.

During the night, the army again set up camp and stopped. Taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind, Ning Wanshu slipped into Huo Jingcheng's tent again to have a tryst with her lover.

After lingering, Ning Wanshu straightened the soft pillow crooked on one side, and when she was about to put it on the pillow, her movements suddenly stopped, and a pair of beautiful eyes stared at the things exposed under the pillow, and wondered: "Huh? What is it? ”

As she spoke, she picked up the thing and looked at it in her hand, but this look made her stunned for a moment. After coming back to his senses, he blurted out and asked, "Your Highness, what is this sachet?" ”

Huo Jingcheng glanced at it, took back the sachet from her hand and put it under the pillow again, and said, "This is something that the palace unintentionally picked up, so I kept it because I thought it looked good." ”

Ning Wanshu looked at his actions, felt slightly suffocated in her heart, and gently answered without speaking.

The two were silent for a moment. Ning Wanshu didn't want to stay any longer, so she got up and dressed, saluted and left his tent.

The moon shadow outside the curtain is hazy, the starfire is sparse, and the quiet night seems to be frozen. Ning Wanshu walked back slowly, and her heart gradually sank in the many thoughts that came up.

The sachet under his pillow, she would never be mistaken. Its materials, embroidery threads, embroidery work, and style are exactly the same as the silk sachet newly embroidered by Yao Dui, and it is concluded that they are all from Yao Dui's hands, and they are all Yao Dui's things.

He said that he had picked it up, and this was in line with that. Because Yao Duran did lose a silk sachet, he embroidered another one. It's just that she didn't believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would put the trivial things he picked up under his pillow, and after she found out, he took them back from her hand and put them away. It can be seen that he cares about this sachet. Or perhaps, he didn't know whose sachet it was, so he deliberately kept it.

The more Ning Wanshu thought about it, the more breathless she felt in her heart. A bold but unreliable thought surged unstoppably into her heart.

Could it be that he is dyed with Yao Duran?

As soon as this thought came to her, even she was startled, and she quickly shook her head to throw away the idea. But then, another thing came to the fire.

That Qiao Fengzhi, wasn't he sent to Nangan?

Also, the matter of suppressing bandits was admonished by Yao Duran, and the plan to invite you into the urn was offered by Yao Duran, and he let it go without saying a word!

When did they start to get so close?

Don't? Could it be that her absurd and terrible thoughts were real?

……

The night passed silently, and the next morning, in the spring and the bright scenery, the army rushed to the road again.

Yao Duran took a sip of hot tea in the carriage, but when she looked up, she found that Ning Wanshu's face was a little pale, so she asked with concern: "Sister Ning, what's wrong with you?" Today's complexion doesn't seem to be as good as it used to be. ”

Ning Wanshu looked at her for a while, smiled lightly and shook her head: "It's okay, maybe I didn't sleep last night." Sister, show me your silk sachet again, and I will also learn from your embroidery. ”

"Okay." Yao Duran took the silk sachet from her waist and handed it to her.

Ning Wanshu took it in her hand and said while looking at it carefully: "Sister, this sachet is really good-looking, I don't know where the previous one was lost?" ”

Yao Duran said: "It should have been lost in the pasture when I was stationed in Beijing." ”

"Oh? Does that sister still remember, who was in the grassland that day? Ning Wanshu pondered everything and began to probe.

Yao Duran did not doubt anything else, and said truthfully: "At that time, there were only me and Fengzhi in the entire grassland. Well, yes, His Highness also went later, but as soon as His Highness went, I returned to the account with Fengzhi. ”

When Ning Wanshu heard this, her heart was already like a mirror. The decision was that on that day, Huo Jingcheng picked up the sachet, and he knew that it was dyed by Yao Dui.

"Sister Ning, what's wrong? It's just a lost sachet, why did my sister ask so meticulously today? Yao Duran asked.

Ning Wanshu came back to her senses, forced a smile and shook her head: "It's nothing, I'm just sorry for your sachet." By the way, sister, did you look for that sachet again? ”

Yao Duran said: "I went to the pasture to look for it once, but I didn't find it, so I gave up." ”

Scold! So, he kept it quietly and put it under his pillow...... Ning Wanshu thought distractedly, and her heart began to be clogged and astringent.

……

The day's journey finally came to an end when the moon was in the willows. The army was noisy and noisy, setting up tents, boiling water and making food, and when the busy time had passed, the camp soon became quiet. After a long journey, everyone is tired, and after filling their stomachs, they will spare time like gold to rest.

The night was dark inch by inch, and the surroundings were quiet little by little. Until the sky and the earth were the same color, as thick as splashing ink, it was already halfway through the night. No one noticed that at this time, in this dim military camp, there was a slender figure sneakily shuttling through it. Soon, the figure came to a remote tent unconsciously, and saw the four soldiers guarding outside the tent staggering and sleeping deeply, not knowing the world and the world.

The sneaky figure pulled a saber from one of the guards, pinched it in his hand, and dodged into the tent.

At this time, look at it, in this crowded tent, who else could it be that the twenty surviving bandits were tied? They were staggered and huddled inside, their hands and feet tied. One by one, they were like frightened birds, and even the sound of gentle footsteps made them wake up suddenly.

"Who are you? What are you doing? Boss Bo looked at the visitor vigilantly and said coldly.

In the silence, a woman's soft voice sounded: "I'm here to let you go." ”

When Boss Bo heard this, he was skeptical: "Why do you want to let us go?" ”

"Because, I'm counting on you to help me kill someone."

When the bandits heard this, they didn't know what to do, and looked at each other.

The woman chuckled, "Do you know who hurt you?" Do you want to avenge the dead brothers? ”

When it comes to the brothers who died tragically, the bandits are silent. Boss Bo suddenly snorted coldly and said, "If you have something to say, you don't have to go around the bend!" Listen carefully, what kind of deal is this today! ”

The corners of the woman's lips hooked, and she said slowly: "This deal is, I let you go, and you kill someone for me." Moreover, this person is still the one who admonished His Highness to suppress the bandits, including the plan to invite the king into the urn is also her idea. Therefore, you should know best in your hearts the hatred of this person. ”

Boss Bo stared at her coldly: "Then why did you kill her?" ”

"You don't have to know this, you just need to know that we have a common enemy."

Boss Bo snorted coldly: "Go on." ”

The woman knew that they were moved, and continued with a smile: "This person's name is Yao Duran, and she is also Yun Xiangguo's apprentice daughter-in-law, although her identity is not very valuable, it cannot be ignored. If you want to leave the camp safely, go to her tent and tie her up before you escape, and if you can escape safely, it will be better, and if you alarm people, you will also take her hostage, so that you can escape smoothly. And I, as long as I have one thing, will kill her when you run away with her! How about a pleasing bargain that avenges not only a thorn in my side but also your brothers who died tragically? ”

After hearing this, Boss Bo's corpse appeared in his mind, and a touch of hatred slowly bloomed in his eyes......

Seeing that he was silent, the woman said, "Of course, you can also refuse, then, let's just let me not come." After the woman finished speaking, she turned and left.

"Wait! Let go of Lao Tzu! Deal! ”

The resolute voice sounded behind her, and the woman turned around with a smile, cut the ropes on Boss Bo's hands and feet without saying a word, handed him the knife in her hand, and then gently said where a tent was located, and then turned to leave.

In the silence of heaven and earth, a vicious voice rose in the woman's heart: "Yao Duran, today is your death!" ”

……

"Woo woo-" Yao Duran was sleeping soundly when he suddenly covered his mouth with a big hand! It was so hard that it hurt the bridge of her nose and cut off the air.

Yao Duran woke up in shock, and in the discomfort of not breathing, he saw several figures crowded into the dim tent. She was terrified, and wanted to scream but was silent, so she had to break the big hand on her mouth and nose, and made a "whine" sound.

"Don't move, don't make a sound! Otherwise, it will kill you soon! A vicious bass voice came. Then, dizzy for a moment, she was dragged out of bed by the man, and was escorted out by someone covering her mouth left and right. She was still dressed in a snow-white silk bedrobe and had no shoes on her feet, so they dragged her rudely into the night.

Yao Duran's arms were caught, and the panic in her heart continued to spread and magnify, and her beautiful eyes burst out with deep horror.

"Woo-woo-" she cried out desperately, trying to alarm someone to save her.

Between the entanglements and tugging, she had already determined the identities of these people. There are twenty figures in a chaotic manner, no more, no less. If it weren't the bandits who survived to become captives, who else could they be?

She didn't have time to think about how they had broken free from the guards and came here to kidnap her. But what she knows is that falling into the hands of these people will never end well!

"Woo-woo-" Yao screamed as hard as she could, struggling wildly, and staggered on the gravel ground with her bare feet, making her feet hurt hotly.
