Lian Zhi'er slowly pulled her lips, "His Royal Highness the Prince is too worried, you are still worried about yourself, now that our Beiliang people have occupied the capital, what can I be afraid of?" ”

Ruan Lu has been detained in the capital since he was intercepted and killed by Ah Zeng that day, he has no idea what happened later, and he never even dreamed that in just a few days, the people of Beiliang would be able to fight in the capital.

After all, there are 100,000 soldiers and horses left at the border pass, that is, 100,000 poultry, which can also keep the Beiliang people out of the pass for several months.

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't know?!

And Ah Zeng told him the truth without any scruples, "His Royal Highness the Prince still doesn't know, Lord Liang let us King Yancheng and 20,000 iron horses into Beijing, and even the life and death of the emperor is now just a sentence from our county lord." ”

Ruan Lu took a closer look at Lian Zhi'er, but saw her in a beiliang shirt, as if she was the first time she saw her.

"Liang words!" Ruan Lu's teeth clenched, but his eyes were already blood-red, "Okay, it's good, it's because this son of the world misjudged him." ”

Lian Zhi'er had never seen him so angry, and he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back, and the hairs on his body stood up.

Ruan Lu's dead eyes fell on Lian Zhi'er's face, "So you also know all this, or did you calculate me with them?" ”

He thought that she had arranged for her identity to be discovered, and she did not hesitate to put herself in danger in order to deceive him with Ah Zeng.

Lian Zhi'er was puzzled, and was about to ask her what she calculated for him.

Ah Zeng was afraid that what he had done at the beginning would be exposed, so he hurriedly said coldly, "The county lord is from our Beiliang. She knows everything, so how can we hide it from her? ”

In an instant, Ruan Lu's eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, but there was a turbulent hatred hidden in the calm, as if he could swallow everything.

Lian Zhi'er only felt that such Ruan Luwan was so strange and creepy.

"I'm going back to Beiliang." She looked at him, then bit her lip, and the next words were very difficult to say.

"Did the county lord come here to show off to me? It's really feng shui in turns, and now this son has become a prisoner. His voice was full of sarcasm, "Congratulations! ”

Lian Zhi'er took a deep breath. It's just that the smell in this prison is so bad that she almost vomited, "Write me a letter of resignation, and the two of us will clear it up in the future." Ah Kong, I will take him to Beiliang, he has nothing to do with you in the future, and when he grows up in the future, I will never tell him that his father is from the Central Plains. ”

"Why does the son of this son want to go to Beiliang?" He smiled, but his eyes were cold, "Don't dream, this son wants you to bear the status of a concubine for the rest of your life and let you take it to the grave." ”

Ah Zeng saw that Ruan Lu had fallen to this point and was still so arrogant, and thought that he had killed the King of Beiliang, so he hated in his heart, "Then you can't write." ”

After saying that, he had already snatched the whip from the hands of the guards beside him, ordered someone to open the chains, and rushed in a few steps.

Ruan Lu looked at him, his gaze swept over the whip in his hand again, and he still didn't have the slightest fear, "You people in Beiliang are really the most unacceptable. will only shout and kill, and will always be a nasty goods. ”

Ah Zengqi's eyes were bruised, and he swung his whip and threw it on Ruan Lu's back.

Ruan Lu's hands and feet were chained, and he couldn't even dodge, only hearing the sound of "pop", but it was the sound of iron wire.

Ruan Lu's forehead was covered with fine sweat in an instant, but his body did not move at all, he was gritting his teeth and holding on.

Ah Zeng knew the power of the whip in his hand, and his strength was very great, and he was afraid that even the stone could be broken if this whip went down.

"His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is so powerful, today I only beat you with ten whips, if you can still stand it, then I will obey you." Ah Zeng almost gritted his teeth and said, "How? ”

Ruan Lu didn't speak, but Lian Zhi'er knew in her heart that she was afraid that the bones of his whole body would be shattered into scum after ten lashes, and she would become a widow if she wrote a letter of resignation.

"Stop." Lian Zhi'er stopped Ah Zeng, who was full of rage, and then walked to Ruan Lu's side, stood on tiptoe and whispered a few words in her ear.

She said, "Your Royal Highness, the concubine has suffered a lot of grievances in the eldest princess's mansion, if you go back to settle the account, the lives of the eldest princess and the marquis will ......."

She said this, and stopped.

His eyes were cold, and there was no warmth, "Lian Zhi'er, I didn't expect my life to be lost in your hands, you remember, you will pay the price sooner or later." ”

Lian Zhi'er knew that he would die, but he still didn't say it.

And where can Ah Zeng bear it, he couldn't help but let out a cold sneer, "Your Royal Highness the Noble Prince still doesn't know, the Queen Mother has already made a decree, you plotted to kill our first king, your life has been at the disposal of our Beiliang people, you are just a water dog now......"

"Shut up." Lian Zhi'er scolded him coldly.

But Ruan Lu had already thought of these things, and his eyes were cold and cruel, "But this son has one condition, if you agree, this son will give you what you want." ”

Lian Zhi'er's face was full of vigilance, "What do you want?" ”

"Since this son is going to die, he naturally wants to see his son for the last time, can you agree?" He squinted at her, his gaze cold.

Lian Zhi'er gritted her teeth, "Okay." ”

Seeing that the matter had been completed, Ah Zeng brought over the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone that he had already prepared, and asked the guards to bring over a rickety table.

Soon Ruan Lu finished writing, and then put the pen on the shelf, "In this way, we will break off our righteousness and have nothing to do with it." ”

Lian Zhi'er walked over, folded the book, and put it on his cuff, "Take care." ”

As soon as she said these two words, even she herself was stunned, and it sounded extremely ironic to say such a thing to a dying person.

Lian Zhi'er came out of the prison where he was held, and soon the guards were locked again.

She slowly walked to the cell next door. asked the guards to open the iron lock, but saw Shi Ran asleep against the wall, there was no blood on his pale face, his handsome eyebrows were wrinkled tightly, and there were faint blood marks on his clothes.

Lian Zhi'er said hurriedly, "Didn't I say that I would find a doctor to treat him?" ”

Ah Zeng couldn't help but change his face, and said in a low voice, "I originally thought that he was also a person to be executed, but I didn't think I had to bother much, so I didn't diagnose and treat him, why is the man in the Central Plains so weak that he became like this with a whip." ”

Lian Zhi'er was angry and hateful, so she hurriedly walked to Shi Ran's side and reached out to probe his forehead, which was really hot.

Shi Ran slowly opened his eyes again, and there was a bit of trance in his pale pupils.

"I've already told my uncle, he promised to let you go, let's go out." Lian Zhi'er's voice was worried, "I'll go find you a doctor, it's okay, it'll be fine." ”

Ruan Lu heard these words clearly, and a bit of bloodthirsty luster appeared in his dark pupils.

Lian Zhi'er put Shi Ran's hand on her shoulder, and then helped him outside.

Ah Zeng hesitated for a moment, but thinking that Shi Ran was his enemy after all, he still stomped his foot and ignored it.

Shi's mansion was copied, and Shi Ran was homeless, so Lian Zhi'er had to send her to a post house in Beijing.

Now that the people of Beiliang have entered Beijing, the people in Beijing are all panicked, and they don't even do business. The shopkeeper of the post house saw that the Beiliang people were coming. I had to be careful everywhere.

Lian Zhi'er only ordered his men to find the best doctor in Beijing to diagnose and treat Shi Ran.

The doctor heard that it was the Beiliang people who came to look for him, so he had to come over hard, and when he saw Lian Zhi'er, he asked, "Who did the county lord let the grass people save?" ”

Lian Zhi'er was already sweating profusely, and pointed to Shi Ran, who was lying unconscious on the bed, and said, "He has a serious whip wound on his body, you can treat him quickly." ”

The doctor vaguely saw the blood stains on Shi Ran's body, and said busily, "I'm tired of the county lord going out, so I'll treat him." ”

Lian Zhi'er frowned, "No, I'm going to be by his side." ”

"How can a married woman look at a man's body, this is really a transgressive rule." The doctor's face turned pale with fright, but he still fought on the basis of reason, not giving a cent, "It's not a system, it's not a system." ”

Lian Zhi'er has never seen such an old-fashioned person, anxious and angry, "He is the only person I love in my life, I will not marry anyone in the future, only marry him, okay?" ”

The doctor nodded, "Even if there is a marriage contract, it is not considered a broken rule." ”

Lian Zhi'er looked at Shi Ran speechlessly, but saw that his pale eyes had been opened, as if he had heard her words clearly.

Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but blushed with shame.

But the doctor said, "Why is the county lord still shy now?" Take off his shirt quickly, if it is stained with wounds. You don't have to drag hard, just take the scissors and cut it. ”

The fingers of the two Bao Zhi'er fell on his moon-white robe, and he looked at her too, his hot breath falling on the top of her head.

Lian Zhi'er slowly pulled off the bloody clothes, and sure enough, he saw a large hideous wound from his shoulder to his back.

Lian Zhi'er saw that the blood and flesh were already condensed together, and he didn't dare to pull it stiffly, so he only took the scissors and slowly cut them with bated breath.

She almost threw herself into his arms, and her snorts were filled with the scent of magnolia and blood on his body.

Lian Zhi'er's fingers inevitably ran over his cold skin, and in an instant her face was already red.

And at this moment, he whispered in her ear, "When everything is over, I will go to Beiliang with you, and we will get married." ”

Lian Zhi'er trembled, and suddenly came to her senses, her heart was as difficult as a knife, but she still lied to him, "Okay, let's go back to Beiliang together." ”

However, at this time, her hand shook uncontrollably, and a bloody cloth was torn off. The coagulated wound cracked open again, and his face turned white.

The doctor had already come, "Oh, why are you so careless." ”

After saying that, he had already taken out the strongest wine and poured it on the wound of Shi Dye.

Shi Ran's face was not bloody for a moment, and Lian Zhi'er knew how much it hurt, so she couldn't help but leave tears.

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt at all," he smiled faintly, his gaze as gentle as the sun.

The doctor's face was full of surprise, "This is the wine I personally drummed up, and even the eight-foot-tall, strong cow-like man cried in pain." ”

Shi Ran was already expressionless, "It doesn't hurt at all." ”

Lian Zhi'er knew that he was trying to reassure herself, but she cried more and more, falling down her pale cheeks and falling into the hem of her clothes.

Knowing that the wound was treated, Shi Ran still had a fever, and after Lian Zhi'er fed him medicine, he fell asleep deeply.

Lian Zhi'er only stayed by his bedside for one night, until the sky was slightly white, and Shi Ran slowly woke up.

He raised his eyes and saw that Lian Zhi'er had fallen asleep on the side of the bed, she was still holding his hand tightly, and her eyebrows were wrinkled tightly, as if she had a not very solid dream.

At this time, it was already early autumn, and it was a little cold inside.

Shi Ran was not a snooze, but slowly pulled his hand back from her palm, and then covered her with the brocade quilt on her body.

She grunted, wiped her mouth in confusion, and fell back to sleep.

Shi Ran came out of the house. But I saw a small sedan chair stopped outside the post house, and the person at the head was hunched, with very small steps, with a bit of femininity, it was Gonggong Liu beside the Queen Mother.

When Gonggong Liu saw Shi Ran, he immediately breathed a heavy sigh of relief, "Shi Gongzi, I can be regarded as finding you, this night the slave turned over the entire capital, Amitabha." You didn't go out of town. ”

Shi Ran said, "I don't know what happened to my father-in-law?" ”

"The Queen Mother said that she would invite you into the palace no matter what." Gonggong Liu looked around and saw that there was no one, "Go quickly, this country is in your hands." ”

Shi Ran knew that the Queen Mother summoned him, and when he was in such a crisis, he was afraid that it was related to the people of Beiliang.

But he didn't hesitate at all, but he still got on the small sedan chair.

In the splendid palace, the originally lively harem was unusually quiet at this time. Those palace maids and chamberlains were all in a hurry, with panicked faces.

Shi Ran's palanquin stopped in the Queen Mother's bedroom, which was unruly after all, and Shi Ran had to open his mouth to refuse.

Gonggong Liu let out a long sigh, "The slave knows that Shi Gongzi pays the most attention to etiquette, but at this time, Gonggong is everywhere with the eyeliner of King Beiliang, and it is not easy to let you enter the palace, do you want to let the Queen Mother down?" ”

Shi Ran went to the Queen Mother's bedroom under the leadership of Gonggong Liu.

But I saw that there was no palace person in the hall, and through the layers of veils, I saw the Queen Mother lying on the bed, a pale and withered hand hanging down, if it weren't for the fingers that could still move, I was afraid that she would think that she had died.

Hearing the voice, the queen mother's weak voice came from the curtain, "The imperial doctor said that the mourning family has run out of oil and the lamp has dried up, and he can't live for half a year, but the poor emperor is young and cowardly by nature, how can he be worthy of a great responsibility." Today's mourning family called you over, also for our country's society, otherwise the mourning family will be ashamed of the first emperor under the nine springs. ”

Shi Ran slowly knelt on the ground, his back straightened, "Please also ask the Queen Mother to command, the grass people will never give up." ”

The Queen Mother's weak voice came again, "The people of Beiliang hate us to the bone, but I can let you go, obviously the county lord treats you sincerely, and only if you can go to talk to the people of Beiliang for the mourning family, how much to give him, King Yan Cheng is willing to leave the capital." ”

Shi Dye didn't refuse, "Yes." ”

Immediately, Gonggong Liu took out a fold and gave it to him, "This is what the household department has just counted, but everything that can be taken out is here, as long as we can drive the Beiliang people out of the Central Plains, otherwise we will all become meat on the chopping board." ”

Shi Ran opened the fold, but only glanced at it, and couldn't help frowning. This thing is too little, and Yan Cheng is a wolf and a wolf. How could they get these things, and then they withdrew?

The queen mother behind the curtain kept coughing, and Gonggong Liu hurriedly patted her on the back, but saw that the ground was covered with scarlet blood.

Shi Ran also saw it clearly, the Queen Mother was only thirty years old, and now she vomited blood at her age, and sure enough, the years are gone.

The Queen Mother wiped the blood on her lips with a handkerchief, and then said, "Today, the traitor Liang Yan is about to enter Beijing, and the mourning family didn't expect him to be such a wolf ambition, and when he is crowned regent, the emperor is just a puppet in his hands." ”

Shi Ran said slowly, "The people of Beiliang are still here, he doesn't dare to be too arrogant." ”

The Queen Mother also nodded, and there was a little worry in her voice, "Go back, as long as you can let the Beiliang people take these things away, you will be the benefactor of the mourning family and the emperor." ”

Shi Ran knelt down and said, "The grass people don't dare." ”

And at this moment, I saw a little chamberlain running in in a hurry, sweating profusely. Something big seems to happen.

Gonggong Liu hurriedly came out from behind the curtain, went up and threw an ear scraper on the face of the waiter, but he heard a "snap", and then scolded bitterly, "Things that don't have long eyes, why don't you have any rules." ”

"Queen Mother, it's amazing, the eldest princess went crazy last night and made a fuss in the mansion. The imperial doctor has already seen it, but he is too sad and has lost his mind. ”

The Queen Mother sighed for a long time, "Who doesn't know that Ruan Lu is her life, and now he can't escape death, this is not to pluck the heart and liver of the eldest princess, no wonder she can't stand it." ”

******

When Lian Zhi'er woke up, it was already sunburned, and she couldn't help but panic when she saw that her body was covered with a quilt, but the bed was already empty.

She hurriedly asked the shopkeeper of the inn, but the shopkeeper only hurriedly said that Shi Ran had something to do and left, and left a letter for her, saying that he would be able to come back in the evening.

Lian Zhi'er was worried about the wounds on his body, knowing that he couldn't drink the medicine, for fear that his wounds would get worse.

The shopkeeper thought of something again, and said, "Childe also said that he went to pick up Ah Kong, and you can see him at night." ”

Lian Zhi'er misses his son every day, and when he hears this, he can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

And at this moment, I saw the sound of horses' hooves outside the post house, but I saw more than 20 Beiliang iron horsemen waiting outside, and then Ah Zeng came in and said, "The county lord should go back to the mansion first, it is very dangerous outside, and the prince should be worried." ”

"Come with me to the Eldest Princess's Mansion first." Lian Zhi'er said slowly, "I still have some things to do. ”
