Lian Zhi'er put the boiled decanting soup in a porcelain bowl, and filled seven or eight bowls, but I don't know if it was enough.

Just when she was hesitating whether to do more, she saw a few people kick in the door, and in an instant the dust in the kitchen shook and the sparks in the stove jumped.

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but be stunned, but at this moment, when she saw a few people coming up, she dragged her and pulled her outside.

Until she was thrown into a room, Lian Zhi'er saw Qingqi with a pale face, and Qingqi also looked at her with fear on her face.

The two of them only exchanged a look, and before they could speak, they saw Sun Shengdi pacing in, and his thin face looked a little hideous because of anger.

"It doesn't matter which of you two has the account book, just take it out, otherwise the lives of the two girls will not be saved."

In Sun Sheng's eyes, she and Qingqi are like ants, they can be crushed to death by reaching out.

Qingqi was already frightened, and said with a frightened face, "I don't know what the account book is, you are mistaken." ”

In an instant, Lian Zhi'er understood everything, and he didn't think that Ruan Lu would actually use Qingqi and get out and leave, obviously to put her and Qingqi to death.

Lian Zhi'er understood that if he handed it over at this time, Sun Sheng's people would definitely kill people.

"You're his sweetheart. Don't you know about this? Sun Sheng was sure that since Ruan Lu could give her the jade pendant, he seemed to be a little sincere to her.

"No, I'm not." Qingqi came up and grabbed Lian Zhi'er's arm, and her voice became poignant, "She is the person at the top of His Royal Highness's heart, and she will definitely know about the dirty things they do in private." ”

Lian Zhi'er looked at Qingqi with a hideous face, as if he was a fierce ghost.

Sun Sheng's sharp eyes looked at Lian Zhi'er's face in an instant. The voice was gloomy, "You slut, why don't you say it quickly?" ”

"The slave doesn't know anything." Lian Zhi'er only has this one sentence.

"Okay, then torture." Sun Sheng's face smiled wildly, "If Ruan Lu comes back, I won't be able to live anyway, and you don't want to live, it's a pity that such a handsome woman is going to become a ghost." ”

After saying that, he waved his hand, and soon someone pulled Lian Zhi'er and Qingqi, who kept crying, and tied the two of them up.

Lian Zhi'er looked at someone who had already walked over with a whip, like a trace of blood faintly on the whip with the thickness of a wrist, and he didn't know how many people had become the souls under it.

With the screams of Qingqi and Lianzhi'er, the whip kept falling on her body.

I don't know how many whips I received, Lian Zhi'er fainted in pain, but soon he was woken up by someone splashing cold water, and the bloody wounds on his body were almost numb from pain.

"Do you remember the two girls?"

Lian Zhi'er was sweating profusely in pain. But he still gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know anything." ”

Soon the whip fell on her body mercilessly, and she wanted to bite her tongue and kill herself, but when she thought of Bei Liang, she still dispelled this idea.

Sun Sheng's men were afraid that they would beat her to death, and when she lost consciousness, they gave her some medicine and threw her into a dark room.

Throughout the night, Lian Zhi'er passed out several times in pain, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat, as if she had fallen into an endless hell.

For several days in a row, she and Qingqi went through countless tortures, until on the fourth day, the jailer saw that the two of them were dying, so he went back to Sun Sheng.

In the past few days, Sun Sheng has been looking for the account book like crazy, but there has been no trace, but he didn't know what to do in the future, and when he saw his subordinates replying that Lian Zhi'er and Qingqi were going to die, he only snorted coldly, "Leave them alone, how can a cunning and sinister person like Ruan Lu tell them, just let them fend for themselves." ”

And at this moment, I heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and the earth-shattering sound startled the gray finches and wild beasts in the grass.

He had to hurry out of the courtyard, and his henchmen who heard the voice all looked like they were about to be in trouble.

But I saw that in the heavy snow, there were two horses driving side by side, one of them was dressed in dark clothes, and the cloak behind him was whirring in the wind, but there was a trace of coldness between his eyebrows and eyes, but it was Ruan Lu who came with soldiers and horses.

And the person next to him was dressed in white, with picturesque eyebrows, but with a touch of peerless arrogance, it was Shi Ran who came to arrest him personally.

He knows what he has done over the years, and when he was tied up in front of the emperor, he was afraid that ten heads would not be enough to cut off.

And Ruan Lu was followed by thousands of iron horsemen, looking at the armor on their bodies, it was actually the forbidden army in the palace, invincible with one enemy and hundred.

With a cloud of dust, the horses stopped in front of them.

"Wechen see His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, Scholar Shi." Sun Sheng led everyone to kneel.

Ruan Lu did not dismount, but his face was a little cold, and he only ordered the guards behind him, "Arrest them all and bring them back to Shangjing." ”

"I wonder what our sin is. Or does the emperor mean it? Sun Sheng still resisted stubbornly and refused to accept his fate easily.

"Come on, search his yard for this prince, and this prince will see if there is any evidence of guilt." Ruan Lu had a clear look, but there was more sarcasm and contempt in his eyes.

Those guards received the order, and only entered the courtyard and the house and flipped around, and even the grandmother Sun in the house was pulled out by the guards, and knelt in front of Ruan Lu in fright.

Soon the guard brought a cloth bag. Respectfully presented it to Ruan Lu, "His Royal Highness, I found it on the beam of their house at this time." ”

Sun Sheng hated so much that he almost pounded the ground, he turned over the ground here three feet, but he still didn't find it, he didn't think that Ruan Lu would be so calculating, he actually hid in his house, as if it was dark under the lamp, and he actually made a mistake.

Ruan Lu is such a shrewd person, he has long expected where Qingqi will take the Eastern Plateau, so he deliberately handed it over to her, because only these cleaning slaves and maids can easily do these things.

Ruan Lu smiled and said, "What else is there to say about Lord Sun?" ”

Sun Sheng sat on the ground with a dejected face, but his face was still full of resentment, so he hurriedly looked at Shi Ran, "Lord Shi, you just look at the past and save Weichen's life." ”

Ruan Lu's face was expressionless, as if he didn't care if he was his father's protégé, "We don't have any affection. ”

Sun Sheng understood that he was a cold-hearted person, and it was useless to beg him for himself.

"Master Shi, the account book is here, you can't cheat for personal gain." Ruan Lu smiled and waved the whip in his hand, and the guard ordered the ledger to be sent to Shi Ran.

Shi Ran only took it, and the expression on his face was indifferent, as if he didn't see how many things he had given to his father as recorded in the account book.

Ruan Lu just kicked his crotch off the horse. Pulling Sun Sheng's neck, "What about them?" Where is it? ”

"Which one is His Royal Highness asking? Is it Qingqi or Lian'er? Which one exactly? Sun Sheng pretended not to know, but he still easily caught the nervousness that flashed in Ruan Lu's eyes.

"Where are they?" Ruan Lu kicked Sun Sheng's body, if he hadn't tied him up and entered Beijing, he was afraid that he would be kicked to death now.

"They have made a mistake and have been put to death." Sun Sheng smiled sinisterly, "Does His Royal Highness still care about the lives of those sin slaves?" ”

Ruan Lu's face turned pale in an instant, he thought he could give it up, but when he heard his words, his heart was still like a knife.

"Where? Where exactly? He almost roared, and even Shi Ran behind him had a hint of puzzlement, he had never seen Ruan Lu lose his temper like this, and he didn't know who it was.

The people behind Sun Sheng saw that the general trend was gone, and they only thought about Ruan Lu, so they hurriedly said, "In the firewood room in the north!" Master Sun has to be tortured, but I'm afraid that this person will no longer be able to do it......"

Before he could finish his words, he saw Ruan Lu suddenly walk towards the low house in the north.

Knowing that pushing open the low and dilapidated door, Ruan Lu's hands were still trembling.

With the smell of mold in the house, she saw a few faint blood marks on the mud on the ground, she looked along the blood stains, but saw that there were two bloody people on the firewood and grass.

He took a few steps, but he still found Lian Zhi'er, the white light that came in through the narrow window, but saw that her face was pale and colorless, as if she was really dead.

Ruan Lu's heart "chuckled". It was as if something had shattered, and it was only pressed against his chest, almost suffocating.

He held her carefully in his arms, his slender fingers almost trembling to reach under her snort, but he still felt the inaudible breath.

Like a lost treasure, he hugged Lian Zhi'er in his arms, and only hurriedly ran outside, shouting, "Call the doctor, call the doctor." ”

Shi Ran and the others were still outside with Sun Sheng and the others in shackles, but they were startled when they saw Ruan Lu running hurriedly with a thin woman in his arms, and there was a doctor in the forbidden army who brought him, so he hurriedly ran over.

Shi Ran's eyes couldn't help but look at the bloody little face in Ruan Lu's arms, although he couldn't see the facial features clearly, he felt very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

But he didn't care at all, and just slowly dismounted. A thoughtful look.

Ruan Lu put the dying Qingqi in Sun Sheng's house, and disgusted that their things were dirty, so he took off his cloak and let her cushion it, but the dark cloak was quickly stained with blood.

Soon a basin of snow water was brought out in a basin and splashed in the ice and snow, but it was a shocking appearance.

After the blood on the wound was wiped clean, Ruan Lu looked at the whip marks on her body, as if she had almost cut her skin all over her body.

He sat on the edge of the bed and looked at his tightly closed eyes, "How can I be willing?" I was really crazy at the time? I have left you alone in the wolf's den. ”

Soon, those maids gave Lian Zhi'er medicine in fear, and the doctor said worriedly, "The girl's life has been broken in half, and whether she can survive depends on whether she can survive for a day." ”

"Useless things? If she is half bad, this son will cut off your head first. Ruan Lu's face was pale, and he could almost breathe fire.

"It also depends on the girl's creation, if ordinary people are tortured like this, they won't be able to live a long time ago, but the girl is only afraid that she has an obsession in her heart and refuses to let go, so she hangs this life." The doctor had a look of pity on his face.

Ruan Lu waved his hand and only let him go down. seemed to think of something, "There is another one in the house, see if you can save it, if there is no way to save it, you can only let her go and save the guilt." ”

If it weren't for Qingqi and Lian Zhi'er being like sisters, he wouldn't have any pity for that woman.

Soon the two of them were left in the room. Ruan Lu looked at Qingqi on the bed, his fingers slowly rubbing her cheek, "What do you want, just sue me, as long as you open your mouth now, I can agree to anything." ”

His voice was hoarse and tinged with untold pain.

"Don't you want to go back to Beiliang? I'll take you back! Go and see your relatives, go see your brother. ”

"Don't you like horseback riding? There's a bloody horse in the palace, can I ask for it for you?! ”

"Get up and talk to me. Even if you scold the son of the world, you can do it! ”

Finally her lips moved, as if to say something.

Ruan Lu's heart suddenly tightened, but it was full of joy, and he only leaned his ears over, "What did you say?" You say! ”

"Shi Dye ......," she said, and a line of tears rolled down her pale cheeks.

Ruan Lu slowly stood up, and then he realized that his body was covered in her blood, "Okay, this son will call him to you." If you die while I'm away, I'll cut off his head with my own hands. ”

When he had finished speaking, he pushed the door open and went out, and when he reached the door, he stumbled and almost fell into the ice and snow.

The guards guarding the door were all frightened, but when they saw that the prince who was calm in the past showed a panicked and panicked appearance, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"Where's the dye?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, Lord Shi is leading people to search for the gold and silver hidden by Sun Sheng and others......"

Before he finished his words, when he looked up, he saw that his front was empty, and he didn't know when Ruan Lu left.

When Ruan Lu found Shi Ran from a remote house, he saw that Shi Ran was ordering someone to dig up the gold and silver treasures buried in the snow, and he raised his eyes to look at Ruan Lu who was sweating profusely, "Why is His Royal Highness the Prince in such a hurry?" ”

"Follow me to her." Ruan Lu's voice was cold.

Shi Ran looked at him with some puzzlement, but couldn't help but think of the woman who didn't know life and death who was held by him, "I'm very busy, it's really inconvenient, and besides, I'm not a doctor, His Royal Highness the Prince has found the wrong person." ”

Ruan Lu had long forgotten the Beiliang County Lord who had stalked her at the beginning, he only knew that she had finally fallen into Ruan Lu's hands, but he only thought that the woman was no longer alive.

He was originally a cold-hearted person, even if Lian Zhi'er was unforgettable and heartbreaking, but in his eyes, she was just like duckweed, or a leaf that fell on his body, and he would never remember it again.

Ruan Lu's eyes were already full of bloodshot in a hurry, and he pulled out the matching sword on his body with a "brush", pointed directly at Ruan Lu, and said word by word, "She wants to see you." ”

The surrounding guards couldn't help but be shocked when they saw the two of them fighting each other inexplicably, after all, Ruan Lu and Shi Ran were both characters of Xuanhe in Beijing, and it was not easy to clean up after they were injured.

"Don't—"

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is discouraged."

"He's Lord Shi, how can you move the blade?"

Shi Ran looked at Leng Cen Cen's blade, it didn't seem like he was making too much trouble, he knew Ruan Lu too well. Not only is he arrogant and uninhibited, but he also has to get everything he thinks of.

"I'll just go down with His Royal Highness." Shi Ran's fingers brushed over his sleeves, still elegant and calm.

Ruan Lu put down the sword in his hand and walked towards Sun Sheng's courtyard with Shi Ran, he walked in a hurry, as if he was afraid that something would happen, he stumbled several times, and even his steps were a little vain.

This made the waveless Ruan Lu also a little stunned, but when he was taken into the room by Ruan Lu, he saw that the woman's eyes on the bed were tightly closed, as if she was trying her best to endure the pain in her body.

And when his eyes listened to the woman's clean little face, he finally asked, "Who is she?" ”

As if hearing his words, another line of tears fell from the eyes of the woman on the bed, and she immediately let out a painful snort like a kitten.

"Lord Shi is really a noble person who forgets things, and he forgot all about the earth-shattering woman he loved in the first place." Ruan Lu sat on the bed and reached out to caress the back of Lian Zhi'er's hand. "She's Lianzhi'er."

Countless memories came to his heart in an instant, and Shi Ran's gaze stopped on Lian Zhi'er's little face, if it wasn't for Ruan Lu to say it, he wouldn't have recognized her.

At the beginning, there was a happy smile on the little face of the duck egg, and no matter where she went, she seemed to be able to hear it, but at this time, the woman on the bed was so thin that only a handful of bones remained, and there was no longer any bright and bright of the past, like a withered and withered flower.

"How is she?" Shi Ran frowned, "Why is she here?" ”

Ruan Lu didn't want to tell him everything he had done at all, and he even felt uncomfortable when he thought about it.

"The doctor said she might not survive tonight, you stay here with her, maybe she ......" he paused, his eyes falling on her thin little face, "maybe she can survive." ”

"Your Royal Highness, I still have a lot of things to do." Shi Ran's eyes were indifferent again, "Life and death are all in peace, there is nothing bad about leaving, look at such a sick person, those who went to the province earlier will suffer early." ”

His words were tantamount to a stab in Ruan Lu's heart, "Yes, Lord Shi is such a ruthless and ruthless person, so he has never been sad even when his own mother went, and this world is just a narrow-minded and selfish person." ”

There was a hint of complexity in Shi Ran's eyes, and he only said two words for a long time, "Farewell." ”

Ruan Lu looked at the woman on the bed, her faint breathing was almost about to break at any moment, and he finally gritted his teeth, "Please, please stay with her, even if she goes tonight and goes to the hell of the underworld, she will be happy in her heart." ”

Shi Ran was stunned, Ruan Lu, who was so high, would ask for someone like this.
