The three of them passed through the small half of the palace and came to the edge of the bamboo forest, and walked around the periphery but still found nothing. The two princesses, who have always been pampered, are already breathing.

"Phew—no, no! I can't walk anymore! Let me rest. Yuncai couldn't care about the princess's demeanor anymore, and sat on the ground; Duan Wan also sat on the rock next to her, so tired that she couldn't speak.

"The two princesses are resting here for a while, and the slave maid will go inside, maybe my sister is in the bamboo forest?" Tao Xi knew that she had caused a lot of trouble to the princesses, and she didn't dare to work anymore.

"Then you can be careful, and shout loudly when you encounter something." Yun Cai instructed uneasily.

"The bamboo forest in this harem is not an old forest in the deep mountains, so it is not so dangerous. It's daylight again, and nothing will happen. You can go with confidence! Duan Xiu waved her hand at Tao Xi, signaling that she didn't have to worry.

Tao Xi nodded, and walked boldly to the depths of the bamboo forest alone.

Tao Xi couldn't tell the direction as she walked, and she was a little anxious at the moment. She thought that if she didn't find it, she would be miserable if she got lost again! I simply quickened the pace of searching. Unexpectedly, I tripped over the raised stone if I was not careful.

"Ouch!" Taoxi screamed in surprise and fell into the mud. She said to herself, why is she so unlucky? He was groping for a way to stand up, when suddenly he touched a slender object under his hand.

Tao Xi picked up the dirt hidden on the surface and found a wooden flute! She picked up the flute and wiped it clean, and looked at it carefully. I was surprised to find that this is not Liu Ruo's flute?! Liu Ruo's flute has never left her, but now that she has picked it up in the dirt, Taoxi has a sense of foreboding.

"Liu Ruo! Liu Ruo! Are you there? I'm Taoxi! If you hear it, answer me! Tao Xi desperately called her sister's name, but the only thing that answered her was the rustle of the wind blowing through the bamboo leaves.

Tao Xi decided that Liu Ruo had been here, so she walked forward in the direction where the flute fell. After walking about two hundred steps, she spotted a green figure lying on the ground.

"Liu Ruo!" That's right, that's Liu Ruo, Taoxi recognizes her skirt!

Tao Xi flew over to check the situation, and the result frightened her: "Ah-" Tao Xi couldn't help but let out a terrifying scream, because Liu Ruo's appearance was so terrifying!

Liu Ruo died, and the seven orifices bled out.

Duan Wan and Yuncai outside the bamboo forest heard Taoxi's screams, and their first reaction was: Oh no, something happened!

"Wouldn't it? In broad daylight, aren't there really any snakes, insects, rats and ants being hit by Taoxi? Duan Wan didn't think that someone was dead, and thought that it was just that Taoxi was too timid.

"It must not be a trivial matter for you to hear her scream so fiercely!" For the sake of prudence, Yun Cai suggested that it would be safer to call the guards to enter the bamboo forest together.

"Okay, I'll go and call the guards, you wait here for now." After Duan Wan finished speaking, she quickly ran to the nearest Yaxin Xiaozhu to move the rescuers; And Yoon-chae waited in place while calling out to Momo-xi.

After a while, several of Yaxin Xiaozhu's guards returned with Duanwan. Unexpectedly, there were also two strange distinguished guests - Wulan brother and sister.

"I've seen Princess Juli." Ulan bowed his hand and Ulan Yan bowed his head, which can be regarded as a salute to Yuncai.

Yun Caifu returned the salute, quietly pulled Duan Wan and asked, "What are the two of them doing here?" ”

Duan Wan also felt strange: "I don't know, when I went to ask the guards for help, I happened to meet them." After listening to my description, they unanimously decided to come along, and I couldn't help it! ”

"Whatever, whatever! Come on, come on, anyway, if something really happens, it's good to have two adults who can call the shots. Yun Cai then invited the Ulan brothers and sisters to enter the bamboo forest together.

The group entered the bamboo forest, followed Taoxi's footprints and the direction from which her cry came, and soon found her location.

"Peach!" Yuncai was the first to see two figures, one pink and one green, and ran over first: "Taoxi, Liu Ruo, you ...... You okay? When she got closer, she saw the back of Liu Ruo lying down, and it didn't look like she was fine.

And the peach who shrunk aside and cried incessantly confirmed Yuncai's ominous premonition. It seems that Liu Ruo really had an accident.

"Taoxi, why are you crying? That's Liu Ruo? Why is she lying on the ground? Duan Wan didn't think about anything else, and walked over to "wake up" Liu Ruo. As soon as she stretched out her hand, two voices stopped her at the same time.

"Don't touch the princess!" These two voices came from Tao Xi and Wu Lanyan respectively.

Duan Wan suddenly stopped her movements and looked back at everyone suspiciously.

"My sister is dead...... The princess still don't go over. Taoxi sadly covered her tears.

Wu Lanyan stepped forward to pull Duan Wan back and persuaded: "The princess's daughter's body, don't touch that filthy dead body!" ”

Duan Wan shrank her hand a little frightened, she was almost about to touch Liu Ruo's shoulder!

"How did Princess Ulan know that Liu Ruo was dead?" Yoon-chae looked at U Lan-yeon strangely.

"Hehe, Princess Yuncai said it was funny! How do I know if she's dead or not? Just seeing her lying there, something must have happened to her. I'm just worried that Princess Yangshun will be scared. Wu Lanyan held a blue feather fan and covered her mouth to explain.

"Really?" Yuncai had to admire U Lanyan's keen insight.

Tao Xi cried and described: "Sister, she ...... What a miserable death! Broken neck...... Also bleed! It's really scared to death slaves! Who the hell is it...... So cruel? "Liu Ruo is only fourteen years old, who can a little girl offend? I don't know who endured to do this!

"What now?" Duan Wan was a little dazed for a while, after all, she was the only one in this group of people who could be regarded as the master, but she had never dealt with such a tricky matter!

"Let's get the body out first. After going out, I will send someone to report to the emperor. "The eldest Ulan had an idea, and the few little girls who didn't know anything about the world had to listen to him.

The guards carried Liu Ruo's body out, and then went back to the saint; It was Juli's people who had the accident, and Li Yuncai had to go back to report to the second brother; Duan Wan really regretted that she had to pull Yuncai out to play, and she got into trouble! She was ready to be scolded by her mother and returned to Ganquan Palace in a gloomy manner.

The Ulan siblings stood on the edge of the bamboo forest and did not leave immediately.

"I didn't expect the body to be found by a group of children!" Wu Lanyan pouted, a little displeased: "I would have buried her if I knew it." ”

Ulan was excited: "Isn't it because you're afraid of soiling your new skirt that you refuse to dig a pit?" ”

"Oh! Are you blaming me now? Haven't you done it yet? Ulanyan angrily turned around and ignored Ulan.

"I've killed her for you, aren't you satisfied?" Wu Lan grabbed Wu Lanyan's waist from behind, and blew ambiguously into her ear: "My good Yan'er, don't be angry!" Is it okay if my brother is wrong? ”

"Humph! Every time, I will only coax others! Bad apple! Wu Lanyan scolded. She turned, wrapped her hands around Ulan's neck, and stared at the other with affection.

Ulan bit her lip and said with a wicked smile, "We're all bad guys!" ”

"Hehehe......" The weird and debauched laughter of the Wulan brothers and sisters drifted into the bamboo sea with the wind, and was soon drowned out.

Ulan Yan and Ulan Yan were originally brother and sister, why is the relationship so ambiguous? When the two faced each other, the smile and the eyes flowed, all revealing the strong love between lovers. Don't you look like a brother or sister? Could it be that they have maintained this unethical and taboo relationship? Or is there something else to hide? What does Liu Ruo's death have to do with them?

The answers to the first two questions are not known for the time being; If you want to answer the latter question, you have to rewind the time to early this morning......

Although the palace is magnificent, it is not as good as sleeping in your own bed. Before dawn, Wu Lanyan woke up. She put on her new clothes and crept out of the bedroom, for fear of waking up the sleeping Snow Lady next door.

Wu Lanyan wore a royal blue silk single gauze pomegranate skirt today, reflecting her silver-white hair, which made her face even more translucent and white. Sneaked to the door of the east chamber where Ulan Yu lived, and closed the door rhythmically with three short and one long.

"Knock knock, knock-" As soon as the fourth sound fell, the door opened, and a pair of pale and powerful hands stretched out from inside, quickly taking Wu Lanyan into the house.

"That's what my baby thinks of me? Can't wait to find me before dawn? Wu Lan Yan didn't say a word, and first put Wu Lanyan against the door and kissed him for a while.

"Nasty! If you come to your relatives' house without washing your face, who can't wait? Wu Lanyan pretended to be disgusted and pushed Wu Lan away.

"Okay, I can't wait, can I do it?" Ulan tugged at a wet towel and wiped his face, then asked for another kiss.

Wu Lanyan turned her face away and didn't let him succeed: "The air is good in the morning, I want to exercise in the morning, you accompany me!" ”

"Good, good, my eldest lady! You've got to get me dressed, right? Ulan grabbed Ulanyan's hand and put it on his bare chest. Wu Lanyan pulled the robe on the side with a red face and threw it on his head.

"Hurry up!" Wu Lanyan turned her back shyly.

"What are you shy about? You haven't seen that piece of me, huh? Wu Lan was playing, and Wu Lanyan was even more angry and threatened to go back.

How can Ulan let go of the beauty easily? The two of them tugged and pulled like a game, accidentally knocking over a vase on the table. The cracking of the vase was particularly abrupt in the quiet of the morning, and the two suddenly stopped playing.

"Be careful! By...... What should I do if Xue Niang hears it? Wu Lanyan didn't entangle with him much, and directly left a tryst location: "There is a bamboo forest three miles southwest of Yaxin Xiaozhu, quiet and uninhabited, I will wait for you there!" After speaking, he kissed Ulan on the cheek and flew out of the back window.

"Yan'er, I'll come now, wait for me to ......" He touched his cheek that had been kissed, squinting at the open window, and the corners of his mouth provoked a wicked smile.

Ulan unhurriedly dressed and called the maid to clean up the room, and finally swaggered out the door. As soon as he left Yaxin Xiaozhu, he flew towards the direction of the bamboo forest.
