Chapter 669: Haunting
She took a few deep breaths, opened her eyes, and was finally able to get rid of her emotional distress and concentrate on thinking about what to do.
After looking around, Shen Lian first picked up his clothes from the ground, put them on neatly, and combed his hair in front of the bronze mirror.
Shen Lian thought to herself, she must not let people find out that Dr. Shen is in her room, otherwise she will fall for Hua Baiying's tricks, but at this time, Rui'er has been lying in bed without healing from her injuries, Qisi and Su Xin are nowhere to be seen, and she can't believe the rest of the low-level people in Qingfeng Zhai, and she can't move Dr. Shen alone.
She thought for a moment, and thought of a way to crack it.
Immediately quietly walked out of the house and gently closed the door, looked around and saw that no one was moving in Qingfeng Zhai, and quickly left through the side door to find Liran.
The last encounter made Shen Lian choose to trust Li Ran, she looked at the position of the moon, and knew that it should not be time at this time, Li Ran was reading in the gazebo at the corner of the garden, so she immediately walked in the direction of the gazebo.
This pavilion is far away from the main courtyard of the palace, very hidden and narrow, although it can also be regarded as a stroke to imitate the beautiful scenery of the garden in the south of the Yangtze River, but because of the long road, almost forgotten by the people in the house, always choose to come to this small pavilion to read after the end of the daily duty, on the one hand, it is clean and undisturbed, on the other hand, it can also avoid people's eyes and ears, save a lot of gossip.
At this time, there was no one else around, but Shen Lian still cautiously put on an extra dark cloak, and put up the cloak hood to cover his face, and walked along the path to the small pavilion in the corner of the garden.
A figure in the pavilion sat with his back to Shen Lian, and a small candlestick was placed on the small stone table in the center of the pavilion, and the owner of the back was holding a scroll in his hand, reading carefully.
Shen Lian looked around, saw that there was no one else, approached from the side of the pavilion and took a look, the person who was reading was clear, it was Li Ran.
Li Ran also felt being watched at this time, raised his head just to see Shen Lian, and then put down the scroll in his hand, clasped his hands and stood up.
"Second Miss."
"I heard you talk about it before, and I often read books here, but today I happened to find it, and you are really here."
"The second lady is visiting at this time, I don't know if there is anything that can help me, please do not hesitate to ask."
Shen Lian approached Li Ran and whispered in his ear the ins and outs of the matter of being stunned by the medicine.
Li Ran's face changed slightly, and his breathing was slightly short.
"There is such a thing, Hua Baiying is too arrogant."
Shen Lian made a gesture of silence.
"Since the other party has made a move, then we will catch them off guard."
Bow your head.
"Always at the behest of the young lady."
After finishing speaking, he blew out the candles on the small stone table, and quietly returned to Qingfeng Zhai with Shen Lian.
Entered Shen Lian's bedroom first, carried Shen Yi on his back, Shen Lian picked up Dr. Shen's clothes scattered on the ground, and the two sent Shen Yi back to the ear room, gently put him on his bed, and covered him with a quilt.
After placing Shen Yi, the two hurried to the next room where Qi Si and Su Xin were, but they didn't find the two.
At this time, Qingfeng Zhai was unusually quiet, except for Rui'er who was sick in bed, there should have been a person in Zhai who was full-time cooking and doing rough work, but there was no trace at this time.
Shen Lian was suspicious in her heart, and returned to the front hall, only to find Qi Si and Su Xin still slumped to the ground crookedly.
Shen Lian and Li Ran hurriedly called the names of the two, but the two remained unconscious.
"It seems that this Hua Baiying has been scheming and has already thought of a plan to deal with Miss, transferred Qingfeng Zhai and the villains away in advance, and took the opportunity to drug Miss, but I have seen that Dr. Shen and Qi Si Suxin are unconscious, how did Miss wake up in advance?" Historically, this reminder, Shen Lian was also puzzled.
It stands to reason that the drugged person is vicious, how can he sober up in advance, but the opportunity is rare, the drugged person must not have imagined that he will come to his senses to make a layout, and now is the best time to turn defeat into victory.
"I don't know, but today's opportunity is rare, Hua Baiying wants to blame me, then we will fight against her!"
"What are the plans of the young lady?" Shen Lian got up silently, carefully recalling every detail of what happened, while carefully exploring the flaws inside and outside the front hall.
Finally, in the corner of the wall, she found a piece of incense stick that had been extinguished.
Picking up this incense stick through a handkerchief, I saw that the pattern of this incense was quite unfamiliar, and it was not similar to any spice used in Qingfeng Zhai.
Shen Lian cautiously approached and smelled it, and felt that the smell was light but weird, and his thoughts were suddenly confused, so he quickly threw it away, got up and walked a few steps quickly, and took a big breath of fresh air before gradually relieving himself.
It seems that this incense was used to stun Shen Lian and his party at dinner today, but the person who took the drug acted in a hurry, leaving a lot of flaws, so that Shen Lian found evidence.
"Second Miss, isn't this the fragrance of dinner time?" Li Ran followed Shen Lian out of the front hall, and when he saw her holding a incense stick, he was also shocked.
"This smell is light but weird, and it is indeed the incense that Hua Baiying used to frame me."
Shen Lian looked at this incense thoughtfully, it seemed that this person was not skilled, and he was in too much of a hurry.
Now that it is approaching, Shen Lian knows that he should act as soon as possible, otherwise he will have many dreams at night.
"In that case, why not treat others the way they do.
This flower has done such a thing, why don't I return the color. ”
Shen Lian made up his mind, so he let Li Ran lead the way and went to the wrong room where Mama Zhao lived.
The two hid in a hidden place and waited, and after about a cup of tea, they saw Mama Zhao enter the room alone.
The two of them bowed down and walked to the window.
Li Ran quietly poked a hole in the window paper with a branch, covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and stretched the lit half-incense stick into the room through the hole with one hand.
After a while, only the sound of people in the house falling to the ground was heard, and he quickly took out the unburned incense stick and extinguished it on the ground.
After solving Mama Zhao, another one needs to be solved, and today's game is completed.
"Miss, Wang Lu is on duty today, I'm afraid he will stay outside Hua Baiying's room all night."
"Well, I have a way."
After Shen Lian carefully instructed Li Ran, he got up and went to Taoyaowu.
The outside of Taoyao Dock is full of flowers and plants, and even if it is autumn, it is still a good scene of flowers.
Shen Lian asked the maid Zhu Yun, who was guarding outside the house, to report, and after a while, he heard Lu Jinqiao's delicate half-strange and half-charming voice coming from the house.
"It turns out that my sister is here, I haven't come to see my sister for a long time, come into the house quickly."
Between the words, Lu Jinqiao walked out and took Shen Lian's arm and walked into the room.
"In the middle of the night, how did my sister remember to come to see my sister."
Lu Jinqiao leaned on the beauty couch with a soft posture, wearing only a lotus-colored moon flower belly pocket and a light phantom gown, his eyes flowed, his lips opened lightly, and a random snake bun was a little trance in the night.
"My sister hasn't rested, it seems that she happened to be waiting for her sister to come to this peach blossom dock."
"Look at your mouth, I'm waiting for the prince to come back today."
Lu Jinqiao pouted, and made an orchid finger with a stubborn silk handkerchief, and his tone was strange but with a little girl-like resentment.
However, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
Shen Lian was shocked.
"What? Is the prince coming back? Lu Jinqiao sat up from the beauty couch, took Shen Lian's hand, and said with a smile.
"Ouch, I said sister, your father is coming back for such a big thing, and no one has notified you.
See if you dare to come to see your sister in the future, with this huge palace, I really feel sorry for you, sister. ”
"My sister will come to visit my sister when she has time in the future, but Lu'er heard that the prince was fighting outside, and she didn't hear the news that the Wuwei army squad had returned to the court, how could the prince suddenly return to Beijing?"
"This sister doesn't know anything.
Although the prince is stationed at the border pass, fortunately, the domestic situation in the Northern Wei Dynasty has been turbulent recently, and there is no time to look south, and the Wuwei army does not need to go out to fight, plus my sister heard that the saint is willing to marry Princess Jinghe to the eldest young master Shen Wenmin, and the prince must have returned to Lingyang City this time to organize Princess Jinghe's wedding.
My sister didn't know, since the day before my sister returned home, the prince hurried back to the border, if it wasn't for the sudden marriage of the saint, my sister didn't know how long to keep the empty boudoir alone? I heard that the prince will go back to the house tonight, my sister must wait for the prince, sister, you said, if the prince comes back, he should want to stay in my peach blossom dock on the first night. ”
