Chapter 279: Ill-intentioned
When Yan Qinghan bought food and came back, only the proprietress of the stall was left standing in place.
Yan Qinghan looked left and right, but did not see Du Ruosheng's figure.
"Childe, are you looking for the girl just now, your little lady?" The stall proprietress saw that Yan Qinghan was a little anxious and asked.
"Yes, she's still here, do you know where she's gone?" Yan Qinghan looked at the proprietress and asked rhetorically.
The proprietress shook her head, "I wonder too, I'll leave for a while, and when I come back, I'll be gone." ”
Hearing the proprietress say this, Yan Qinghan no longer delayed here, and wanted to find a place where people flowed.
And in a deep alley not far from the long street, Du Ruosheng was tightly held in the arms of a man, and she looked at the jewelry again, but was taken away before she could react.
The alley was dark, and the man was more than a head taller than Du Ruosheng, Du Ruosheng couldn't raise his head, and he couldn't see the man's face clearly.
However, the familiar water sandalwood on the man's body made Du Ruosheng guess his identity, it was Xiaoyi.
It wasn't until Xiaoyi let go of the hand covering Du Ruosheng's mouth that Du Ruosheng said in a low voice: "Why did you appear here?" ”
Du Ruosheng raised his head, his eyes flashed, and he looked directly at Xiaoyi.
Xiaoyi lowered her head and leaned down, the distance between her and Du Ruosheng was very close, if this action seemed ambiguous to outsiders, Du Ruosheng was a little uncomfortable.
"What do you think?" Xiaoyi said leisurely.
Du Ruosheng lowered his gaze and turned his head sideways, "When did you start following us?" ”
Xiaoyi should have been following them for a long time, and he didn't even notice it.
"From the time you left the palace." Xiaoyi and Du Ruosheng distanced themselves, stood in front of her, and said lightly.
When he left the palace, Du Ruosheng was a little surprised, he didn't notice it for so long, didn't Yan Qinghan feel it, it can be seen that Xiaoyi's elusive skills should not be underestimated.
"What are you looking for me for?" Du Ruosheng got straight to the point, in fact, she had asked just now, but Xiaoyi diverted the topic.
"Knowingly, what do you think I'm looking for you for?" Xiaoyi is sometimes speechless to Du Ruosheng's elm head.
Du Ruosheng suddenly realized, "Oh! It's for Yan Jinyu's business, I almost forgot! ”
Du Ruosheng patted his head and said.
"Yan Jinyu? The old man in prison is Yan Jinyu! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back then? When Xiaoyi heard Du Ruosheng's words, her expression became serious.
Du Ruosheng nodded, Xiaoyi's reaction was not surprising to her, she really didn't tell him what the identity of this old man in prison was.
"He's not dead!?" Xiaoyi said again.
"Dead? He has always lived well, how can he die? Du Ruosheng was a little puzzled.
"The ministers who followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back then, died and died, but I didn't expect that he had been locked up in prison." Xiaoyi said to herself.
"My father is one of His Royal Highness's most powerful supporters." Du Ruosheng knew about this early on, if it weren't for this, maybe Lu Lan wouldn't have been so desperate.
"What do you mean by telling me?" Xiaoyi obviously still didn't understand Du Ruosheng's intentions.
"The reason why Yan Jinyu can survive is because of Yan Qinghan's protection, the relationship between Yan Qinghan and Yan Jinyu seems to be very good, if, if we can let Yan Jinyu help us, it will not be easier to deal with Lu Lan." Du Ruosheng said slowly.
"You want to use Yan Jinyu?" Xiaoyi looked at Du Ruosheng, and there was a hint of doubt in her tone.
However, Du Ruosheng is very sure, "It's not to use, it's just to let him help us." "After all, you can't say it so ugly!
"It's not all the same, what do you want to do?" Xiaoyi was a little helpless, and said.
"Tell him about Yan Qinghan's life experience, I believe he will definitely agree to help us in the future."
Regarding Du Ruosheng's confident attitude, Xiaoyi really doesn't know where she gets her confidence.
"You want to use him to tell Yan Qinghan?"
"Yes, this is the best fit." Du Ruosheng said with satisfaction.
Xiaoyi thought about it for a while, after all, this matter is not something he can decide alone, not to mention that for Yan Jinyu, how to say it is also a problem, Du Ruosheng obviously thinks about some things too simply.
"Do you think it's feasible?" Du Ruosheng saw that he was silent, and opened his mouth to ask.
"Have you figured out what to get him to do?"
"I naturally have a way to do this, whether I do it or not is up to you."
"After I tell my wife about this matter, I will tell you that this matter is very important, and if anything goes wrong, it will have a great impact on us."
Du Ruosheng knew Xiaoyi's cautious intentions, and he was indeed not in a hurry for this moment, so he responded.
At this time, Du Ruosheng heard Yan Qinghan's voice.
"Ruosheng! Ruosheng! "591 net
"Yan Qinghan is looking for me again, let me know when you decide!"
Before Xiaoyi could answer, Du Ruosheng ran out of the deep alley.
Xiaoyi looked at her departing back, and a kind of gloom came to her heart.
When Du Ruosheng walked out of the deep alley, he saw Yan Qinghan's back looking a little anxious, shuttling through the crowd, it seemed that he should have been looking for himself for a long time.
Then, she ran behind him, "I'm here!" Du Ruosheng slapped Yan Qinghan on the back and said softly.
Yan Qinghan heard Du Ruosheng's voice, turned around instantly, and was relieved when he saw Du Ruosheng standing in front of him safe and sound.
Although I wanted to blame, I still held back, and said softly: "Where did you go?" I've been looking for you for a long time. ”
"I just walked around, who knew that there were too many people, and I couldn't find the original place." Du Ruosheng said lightly.
"It's not too early, let's go back to the palace early." Du Ruosheng then took the initiative to take Yan Qinghan's hand and walked into the flow of people.
Her rare initiative made Yan Qinghan a little unexpected, held her hand tightly, and said in a harmonious voice: "Okay." "Ahead of the curve.
Du Ruosheng turned his head and saw Xiaoyi standing in the crowd, and made a "go back" gesture to him, signaling him to leave.
Xiaoyi watched her disappear little by little, standing in place for a long time without moving.
Du Ruosheng returned to the palace with Yan Qinghan in this way.
After Yan Qinghan returned to the General's Mansion, he sent a letter to Qing Xiao.
When Du Ruosheng returned to Huaqing Palace, Luoyu was still waiting for her, and when she came back, she immediately came out to meet her.
"Mother, are things going well?" Luo Yu said with concern while helping Du Ruosheng tidy up.
"Well, it went well." Du Ruosheng returned.
"Niangniang, when you were away, Concubine Li came." The movements in Luo Yu's hand did not stop, but his tone sank with full depth.
"Concubine Li? What did she come to do? If it weren't for Luo Yu mentioning it, Du Ruosheng would have forgotten about her, since she came back from the border pass, she really hadn't seen this concubine for a long time.
"Concubine Li sent this." Luo Yu said and turned around and took a piece of cloth from the inner sanctum.
Du Ruosheng looked at this piece of cloth, it was the piece that Concubine Li and Fang Lanzhi had fought over at the beginning, but hadn't this cloth been rewarded to Fang Lanzhi by the emperor, why did it appear with her again now.
"How could she have this?" Du Ruosheng looked up at Luo Yu and asked.
"Niangniang, Concubine Li said that this was given to her by the concubine at the beginning." Luo Yu said cautiously.
"Concubine? Where are there any concubines in this palace now? Du Ruosheng chuckled.
"It seems that she hasn't forgotten the bet that Bengong made with her at the beginning." Du Ruosheng seemed to understand Concubine Li's intentions, and said quietly.
"Mother? What do you mean? Luo Yu was a little confused.
"What else did she say when she sent this?" Du Ruosheng didn't answer Luo Yu's doubts, but asked again.
"She said that she and Niangniang are not the winners, but if Niangniang is willing to help her, she is willing to be loyal to Niangniang from now on, and if you don't want to, she also hopes that you will not hinder her from finding someone who can help her." Luo Yu said as she paid attention to Du Ruosheng's reaction.
After all, to her ears, she felt that this concubine was like Fang Lanzhi at the beginning, arrogant, and a little too arrogant.
"Is she threatening Hongu, or is she pleading with Hongu? Now that Fang Lanzhi has gone, and there is another concubine, this harem really can't stop for a moment. Du Ruosheng said solemnly.
"Niangniang, this concubine is afraid that she is a difficult master again." Luo Yu's worries are naturally not groundless, judging from the current situation, Li Concubine and Fang Lanzhi are even more than equal.
"Bengong thought that with Fang Lanzhi as a lesson from the past, they would be more restrained, but now it seems that Bengong has just removed a stumbling block for them."
Du Ruosheng really underestimated these delicate flowers in the harem.
"Send this cloth back tomorrow and tell her that what should be done and what should not be done should be weighed more clearly."
"Yes, sissy." Luo Yu responded.
Du Ruosheng had also changed into his middle coat at this time, ready to take a bath and rest.
"Mother, the bathing water is ready, and the clothes are ready."
"Bengong knows, you go back and rest early, and the rest of Bengong can be done by yourself."
Luo Yu obeyed, and then retreated.
Du Ruosheng went to the bath.
She took off her clothes and slowly walked into the bath full of flower petals, she sank in the water, the warm water let her relax the fatigue of the day, since she returned to this harem, she had not had a good rest for a day, and now these messy things are also coming one after another, she doesn't know when it will be a day to breathe.
Du Ruosheng slowly sank throughout, the pool water flooded the top of her head, I don't know when she began to like the feeling of suffocation, or maybe now she is suffering in suffocation every day.
She abruptly rose from the water, came out of the bath, wrapped herself in clothes, and walked towards the inner sanctum.
The night is getting deeper and deeper, and the secrets in the darkness are also emerging little by little.
