Chapter 70: She betrayed him
When Ruan Lu passed, he saw that Qingqi and Fushuang were tied hand and foot, and the two of them were brought back from the river, with mud on their feet and some messy clothes.
Especially the black length of Lian Zhi'er is loose, and there is no fear in a pair of eyes, obviously so embarrassed, there is no panic.
Ruan Lu walked over and saw her appearance at this time, and suddenly there seemed to be fire in his eyes, waiting for her to explain to him what was going on.
Lian Zhi'er's face was calm, but her eyes were extremely bright.
That Xia Rong's nervous heart almost jumped out, and it took a long time before she dared to come up, and said with hesitation on her face, "Your Royal Highness, a few girls went to the river to wash clothes, but I didn't expect to see two people by the river ......."
When she said this, she was embarrassed to say any more, and everyone had been taken away by her, leaving only the four of them.
Ruan Lu's blade-like gaze fell on Lian Zhi'er's face, almost scraping off a layer of skin and flesh on her face.
"Our rules here, if these exiled women do things that fornicate with others, they will be dealt with." Xia Rong said tentatively, "If they are sincere, it is better for His Royal Highness the Prince to be the master and let the two become husband and wife, after all, it is just your words." ”
After all, Fushuang is his confidant, how can he not be partial, if the two of them become successful, it will be regarded as one less disaster.
When she finished saying the word "couple", her eyes were as red as charcoal. Even the voice was a little distorted and poignant, "Get out." ”
Xia Rong was so frightened that she hurriedly retreated, and she didn't dare to care about this matter, let alone say a word of pleading for Lian Zhi'er.
Ruan Lu looked at the two people kneeling on the ground, and finally his gaze fell on Fushuang's face, "You say." ”
Fushuang gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground, "I have already had a personal relationship with the county lord, and today is just a tryst by the river, but I didn't expect to be seen." I also ask His Royal Highness the Prince to fulfill us. ”
"Ridiculous." Ruan Lu's eyes were fierce for a moment, "Who instructed you to do this?" ”
Lian Zhi'er still had an indifferent look in her eyes, as if she didn't care about anything, and all this had nothing to do with her.
When she went to the river, she obviously saw Fushuang coming towards her and doing bad things, but she didn't have any resistance, and she was even a little scary and docile.
Even Fushuang was stunned and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?" ”
Lian Zhi'er smiled, "I let you calculate, why do you still ask such a thing?" ”
At this time, Fushuang only wanted to completely knock down Lian Zhi'er, and only gritted his teeth, "She also gave me a pair of boots at the beginning, doesn't His Royal Highness know that the woman of Beiliang gave a man boots, and she made a marriage contract?!" ”
Ruan Lu looked at Lian Zhi'er, "Do you have any explanation?" ”
Lian Zhi'er smiled, her eyes were full of light, like a flowing lake, "You'll believe me, right?" ”
Just one word. He has compromised.
Ruan Lu looked at Fushuang, his eyes gradually becoming gloomy, "Don't think that this Shizi doesn't know who you are colluding with, your calculations are not for that woman." ”
When Fushuang heard this, he was struck by lightning, "Your words don't understand." ”
"Qingqi is really a powerful character, and he actually asked you to betray the love between our master and servant, you are so calculating, you just want to help that woman get angry."
He didn't dare to say that Qingqi was pregnant, and Qingqi said that as long as she could bring down Lianzhi'er, she would give birth to the child.
It was him and her child, even if she was killed by Ruan Lu, she was willing.
He saw that his affairs were revealed, but he finally gritted his teeth, "But the slave still touched her today, His Royal Highness the Prince is arrogant, so naturally he won't ask for a woman who has been touched by others, right?" ”
The green tendons on Ruan Lu's forehead jumped suddenly, and he looked at Qingqi, as if waiting for her to explain, but when he saw her messy clothes, he only felt a tightness in his throat and a knife-like pain.
"Yes." Lian Zhi'er just said this one word, "I am already dirty, and I will never be able to serve His Royal Highness the Prince of the World in the future." ”
Ruan Lu's gaze became eerie in an instant, he grabbed the knife hanging on the wall of the room, rushed towards Fu Shuang, and when he raised the knife in his hand, he saw that Fu Shuang had fallen to the ground, and there was a transparent blood hole in his chest.
The bright red blood almost splashed on Lian Zhi'er's face, her eyes were full of horror, and she subconsciously wanted to pounce into Ruan Lu's arms, but he subconsciously dodged.
Lian Zhi'er only froze there, and said in a very low voice, "Your Royal Highness, don't you want me?" ”
Ruan Lu's eyes were filled with endless pain, and even his fingers trembled, "Let me be quiet for a while, I beg you to let me be quiet for a while." ”
Tears rolled down her cheeks, with a strange beauty and despair.
"Your Royal Highness, farewell forever."
She said this in despair, and then slammed into Ruan Lu's knife, seeing that her lower abdomen had already touched the cold blade, he quickly threw the knife aside.
If it had been half a minute in the evening, she would have died.
Ruan Lu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, but he still hugged her in his arms, "It's okay, let's all forget about this matter, forget about it." ”
This sentence was obviously said to Lian Zhi'er, but it was clearly telling himself that his mind was already confused at this time, and people became a little sluggish.
"Ah......h
"Ruan Lu, if you go to the hell of the underworld, you can't repay the crimes you committed in this life." She smiled like a ghost.
He looked down at his chest, but suddenly he saw that everything understood. Everything today was deliberately arranged by her, just waiting for her to lose control and kill with one move.
Yes, he actually forgot that she was from Beiliang, the people of Beiliang are the best at hunting, they can wait for a long time, until the prey completely relaxes their vigilance, and then they will pounce on it, and it will be fatal.
Sure enough, she is the most doted daughter of King Beiliang, and she has even learned his skills.
Only then did he realize that the lingering affection, tenderness and sweetness at these times were all fake, and he had been deceived by her from beginning to end.
Ruan Lu fell to the ground, only to feel something gradually peeling off in his body.
It's okay to die, to die.
Lian Zhi'er looked at Ruan Lu, who was gradually closing her eyes, and actually laughed, and when she laughed at the end, her eyes were full of tears, and she finally couldn't control it, "You forced me, you owe me." ”
And at this moment, I saw that the hidden person in the inner room slowly came out, but it was Shan Qiao.
When she saw Ruan Lu lying in a pool of blood, because of the revenge, her face was endlessly happy and proud.
But seeing her walk over and put her finger under Ruan Lu's snort, she felt that the faint breath would be cut off at any time, and she originally wanted to make up for it again. But seeing that Lian Zhi'er, who was holding the dagger, turned pale, he gave up.
She keenly put the knife in Ruan Lu's hand, and then took the dagger in Lian Zhi'er's hand and put it in Fushuang's hand.
In the eyes of outsiders, it was Ruan Lu who wanted to kill Fushuang, and Fushuang injured Ruan Lu in order to protect himself, but he didn't expect both to lose, and Lian Zhi'er just saw that the matter was big and ran for his life.
These two ordinary little people will soon no one care.
Shan Qiao took care of everything, and was busy holding Lian Zhi'er's hand, his eyes were full of solemnity, "Let's go, let's go to Beiliang." ”
Lian Zhi'er raised her eyes, and her gaze fell on Ruan Lu's body, yes, she can finally go home.
——————
The pear blossoms in the yard are snow-white, but with a bit of loneliness, only falling in the mud, and no one cleans them.
The head of the management of the river is called Dongcheng, and he is a person who does things properly, and he used to be promoted in Beijing thanks to the eldest princess, but now he is here, and he just wants to do things in a down-to-earth manner.
And he hadn't closed his eyes for days, but he didn't feel the slightest sleepiness.
Two days ago, fortunately, he went to Ruan Lu's house and found that the situation in the house was not right, and there was even a faint smell of blood.
And when he went in, he saw Ruan Lu lying in a pool of blood and dying, and he was so frightened that his soul was not possessed. Hurry up and treat it, after these few days of running, Ruan Lu, who still has his life hanging by a thread, out of the hell of the Yin Division.
He almost didn't dare to think that if it was half an hour, he was afraid that he would send someone to Beijing to report the funeral.
At this time, the doctor came out of the house, his face was a little soothed compared to a few days ago, and he seemed to breathe a heavy sigh of relief, and only said, "My lord, go and take a look, His Royal Highness the Prince has just woken up." ”
When Dongcheng heard this, he couldn't wait to kneel on the ground and kowtow a few times, but he was busy running into the house, because of his weak steps, he staggered a few steps, and almost fell to the ground.
When he entered the house, he saw that Ruan Lu in the account had already woken up, with a cloth on his chest, and there were faint shocking blood stains.
"His Royal Highness." He almost cried, "It's all Fushuang who wants to murder you, and Weichen doesn't dare to dispose of his body, so he only throws it on the mountain." I just thought about waiting for His Royal Highness the Prince to wake up. ”
Ruan Lu in the tent didn't have any blood on his face, almost as white as cold snow, he only said slowly, "What about Lian Zhi'er?" ”
"I'm afraid I ran away when I saw something happened to you." Dongcheng hurriedly explained, "There is also a woman named Shan Qiao who also escaped, and Weichen has already sent someone to find her." ”
Ruan Lu smiled slowly, but Dongcheng looked at his smile and felt a chill in his back, and his whole body was numb.
"Really?" He said lightly, "Does anyone still know about the injury of this son?" ”
Dongcheng hurriedly said, "Weichen is afraid of disturbing the eldest princess, so he doesn't dare to send a letter to Beijing, just waiting for your orders......"
Ruan Lu saw that he was indeed a smart person, but he saw that his dark eyes were surging with endless chills, and then said slowly, "Immediately find the most reliable person under your command to come out, and ask him to send a letter to the general guarding Beiliang Pass." ”
"Yes." Seeing that his face was so solemn, Dong Cheng hurriedly agreed.
However, Ruan Lu waited for half a month, but waited for a letter from the border pass, and he had never seen the woman on the portrait she sent over, and these days the Central Plains and Beiliang were even more-for-tat, sabre-rattling, how could anyone leave from the border pass.
Ruan Lu's eyebrows were tightly locked, but his expression was faint, as if he was suppressing something, and once it broke out, it would be a river of blood.
He took out the fire fold and burned the letter, he raised his head and looked at the pear blossoms outside the window, falling all over the ground, it was so bleak and desolate.
"Where the hell are you?" He said. There was ice in his voice, "You have to hide it well, otherwise if you are found, you will not survive." ”
At this moment, I saw Dongcheng's reply from outside, and it was a grandmother from her mother's side who came, and she brought a few guards, only saying that she had something to do on the orders of the eldest princess.
Although the wounds on Ruan Lu's body had not healed, he still wore his clothes neatly. Seeing that his face was too pale, he drank a bowl of hot tea, and his face turned a little redder.
He walked outside, but saw that it was Mama Wu beside his mother, and she saw Ruan Lu saluting respectfully, "Your Royal Highness, the old slave is here to pass a message to you on the order of the eldest princess." ”
"Oh? What's the matter? ”
"The eldest princess said, what is your identity, how can you accept a woman from Beiliang as a concubine. Isn't this a loss of identity? "Then Mama Wu is used to doing such things by the eldest princess's side," the eldest princess gave a pot of wine, and asked His Royal Highness the prince to allow the old slave to send it over. ”
Ruan Lu pulled the corners of his lips and looked at the courtyard in the east, the woman had been locked up there all these days, and after knowing that Fushuang was dead, she didn't cry anymore, but just looked stupid every day.
He retracted his gaze and looked at the wine jug in Mama Wu's hand, "Give it to this son, and this son will personally bring it to her." ”
The grandmother never thought that Ruan Lu would agree so happily, after all, the eldest princess heard in Beijing that Ruan Lu doted on this Beiliang woman very much.
"Your Royal Highness, how can you do this dirty thing?" Mama Wu said respectfully, "It's better to go as a slave." ”
Ruan Lu's gaze instantly became extremely cold, she looked at Mama Wu and sneered, "Presumptuous." ”
That Mama Wu hurriedly knelt down and sent the wine jug up.
Ruan Lu took it and walked straight to Qingqi's house.
No one came to serve Qingqi these days, only brought her food on time, and she just leaned on the bed, dazed, and only occasionally ate something so that she would not starve to death.
Ruan Lu walked in, but the person on the bed slowly turned his head, and when he looked up and saw Ruan Lu, he suddenly laughed, but the shape was like a ghost, which made people feel cold all over his body.
"Did His Royal Highness the Prince come down to see me off?" She suddenly laughed, "I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince almost died a few days ago, it seems that you are really fateful, and you are actually well." ”
Ruan Lu put the flask in front of her, "Drink it yourself, save the sin." ”
She didn't make a fuss, she didn't even have the slightest wave on her face, she picked up the wine glass herself, pinched it in her hand, but didn't drink it.
"His Royal Highness killed him, you killed him." She smiled, but lines of tears rolled down, "He doesn't want to betray you. I threatened him with the child in my womb, but he didn't know that I was lying to him, where was the child in my belly? ”
Ruan Lu looked at her coldly, "Cheap,"
"Yes, I'm a lowly, that's why I like the world so desperately, and I've been used by you again and again."
She laughed almost like crazy, and Ruan Lu seemed to be even more lazy to take care of her, so he only let her drink the poisoned wine and leave here as soon as possible.
"His Royal Highness didn't find her, did he?" Her gaze fell on Ruan Lu's face, "You think you are the smartest person in the world, but you unexpectedly did something extremely confused, and you don't even know where she went. ”
Ruan Lu's face changed suddenly, "Where is she?" ”
Qingqi wiped a handful of tears from laughter, "She went to the jewelry store that day, how did you forget?" ”
Ruan Lu suddenly understood, and then he realized that he had made a mistake, and that jewelry store was indeed colluding with Bei Liang. even transported goods privately, so he chose that one.
Lian Zhi'er is not a confused person, she can naturally see that except for the style in the Beiliang Palace, it is fake, but the others are really created by the Beiliang people.
Qingqi picked up the wine jug and suddenly smiled, "After Lian Zhi'er dies, send our bodies to Beiliang together, we were going home together, and it seems that only His Royal Highness the Prince can fulfill us." ”
————
In the city, because of the arrival of spring, it is becoming more and more lively and prosperous, Lian Zhi'er and Qingqi only quietly rented an inn next to the silver jewelry store, and only guarded the arrival of the Beiliang people with peace of mind.
Lian Zhi'er is not a foolish person, she knows that there is no way to leave here with the two of them, and the merchant naturally has his own way to go to Beiliang, as long as he follows, he will definitely not be caught.
However, they miscalculated, they thought that once Ruan Lu died, there would definitely be chaos, and they took advantage of the chaos to leave, but they unexpectedly heard that Dong Cheng had found all the doctors and said that they would treat Ruan Lu.
Lian Zhi'er had to quietly inquire if Ruan Lu was alive, but unexpectedly let her know that Ruan Lu was rescued.
Shan Qiao was also dumbfounded, and when he heard about it, he hated itchy, and only said, "It seems that God is also partial to him, I should have left a knife on his neck, if I didn't worry about exposing us, I would definitely cut him with a thousand knives." ”
Lian Zhi'er knew that if she couldn't escape, she wouldn't be able to live, and an arrogant person like Ruan Lu was afraid that she would hate her by now.
They were nervously guarding the window today, but suddenly they saw a burly man with a weathered face enter the shop.
Lian Zhi'er and Shan Qiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, these days have not wasted time in vain, and they were still waited for by him.
The two of them didn't even have time to pack their things, so they hurried downstairs, but they didn't think about it, so they chased into the jewelry shop, but saw that there was no one inside.
Lian Zhi'er realized that it was not good, and was about to turn around and leave, but saw a cold voice coming from behind him, with a chill from Sensen, "Do you still want to leave?" ”
Lian Zhi'er turned her head, but saw Ruan Lu standing in front of her, looking at her with a pair of dark eyes, but with a faint smile on her face.
