Chased out of Mingyue Tower, Lu Jue relied on her strength to force people to stay, and she never said a word to him on the way back to the inn. The way from Mingyue Tower to Deyue Tower is not long or short, but he has always been conceited and smart, and he can't think of a word or a half sentence that can express all his apologies.

The car stopped at the door of the inn, and Lu Jue, who got out of the car first, stretched out her hand to help Zhou Ruoshui get out of the car, but she dodged his hand and jumped out of the car by herself. When she was about to leave, Lu Jue took her hand and was about to speak, Liu Lingling rushed out of it, and said to Lu Jue with an anxious face: "Young master, it's not good, a masked man came an hour ago and injured Xiangyue and kidnapped the young lady, Bai Jiu and Moon Shadow 、、、、、、" suddenly saw Zhou Ruoshui standing next to Lu Jue, and said with a little surprise: "Young lady." Looking at Lu Jue, he asked, "How could the young master come back with the young lady." ”

Zhou Ruoshui pulled out of his hand and said coldly: "You talk slowly, I'm a little tired, let's go rest first." With that, he left alone.

Liu Fuling, who didn't know why, hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you and the young lady, what happened?" ”

He looked at Zhou Ruoshui, who had disappeared from his sight, and a hint of strangeness flashed in his eyes. He knows very well what he should do, since the incident with Liu Dahong and Zhu Xian, he is always on guard everywhere, Zhou Ruoshui is close to the moon shadow to guard, and more than a dozen guards are arranged around! Now who can easily transfer the people around her, there is only one person who can do all this at this time, except for her, no one can get Zhou Ruoshui's trust at this time. He lowered his handsome face and asked, "Did Yu Xianglan meet Shui'er?" ”

Liu Fuling has followed Lu Jue for many years, how could he not understand what he was thinking, he could hear the meaning of his words, but what he didn't understand was that the young master would doubt that Yu Xianglan, who was the best for Zhou Ruoshui, he said in disbelief: "The young master thinks too much!" The proprietress has always been the best to the young lady, and she can't have a problem. Besides, Ray had already done a good job of investigation when we checked in, didn't he? ”

Lu Jue smiled deeply and said sadly: "Knowing people and knowing faces does not know their hearts, and flesh and blood relatives are not careful, let alone outsiders." His words are full of pain in his heart, he is not living in the deceit of flesh and blood every day, his personal experience makes him take care of that precious emotion, at this time anyone has a bad heart, he will use strong means to suppress it.

Since knowing Lu Jue's identity, Liu Fuling has been even more in awe. Hearing his words, he immediately bowed to his side and said, "What does the young master command?" ”

Lu Jue turned his head to look back at the gate of Deyue Tower, frowned, and said, "Summoning Yueying back, let her take care of Shui'er, and don't let her leave half a step." There were some issues between us, and I hadn't figured out how to fix them. She can use force if necessary, but remember not to hurt her. He knew Zhou Ruoshui's temperament very well, and he was afraid that he would make arrangements first if there would be any.

Liu Fuling said: "Yes." ”

Lu Jue sighed heavily again and said, "Let Yu Xianglan come to see me." After saying that, he also left with a heavy heart.

After seeing Lu Jue leave, Liu Fuling whistled, and after a while, a black dog ran over from a distance, and the black dog circled around him and squatted in front of him. Liu Fuling touched the head of the black dog and said, "Good boy, go and get Yue Niangniang back, it's urgent." As he spoke, he found a fleshy bone out of nowhere and threw it at it.

The black dog barked at him, picked up the bone and ran away for a moment.

It wasn't until she couldn't see the black dog anymore that Liu Lingling turned back to find Yu Xianglan.

Yu Xianglan, who was busy in the front hall, followed Liu Lingling to Lu Jue's guest room with anxiety, when she saw Lu Jue sitting there with a deep face, and saw the things on the table, Yu Xianglan's heart was half cold, she knew what she had done, and the smile just now was also frozen on her face, and she saluted very stiffly: "The little woman has seen the adult, I don't know what the adult called the little woman to order." ”

Lu Jue glanced at her and pointed to the two things on the table, one was a few silver tickets with a face value of five hundred taels; The other is a white porcelain vase. said plainly: "I feel annoyed when I talk too much nonsense, to put it bluntly, I will give you two choices, whether to live or die." ”

Yu Xianglan pretended to be calm and pretended not to know: "What the adults say, the little women don't understand." ”

Lu Jue didn't explain much, got up and said: "Someone who has done something that ignores his conscience will always think that as long as he doesn't say it, God knows that no one knows it, but it will always backfire." The proprietress can support a huge inn by herself, and she must be a smart person, and she should know a little about officialdom. You are good to Shui'er, I, Lu Jue, remember the five, but if someone wants to rely on this relationship to do something illegal and undisciplined, I am not afraid of being called an ungrateful person. ”

Yu Xianglan panicked in her heart and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Since my lord said this, I should understand the helplessness of the little woman, she is kind to me, so I have to do this, I just passed on a message, and I haven't done anything else." ”

"Helpless, what a good excuse for the person you were dealing with didn't reveal something to you? I don't believe you don't know everything. Words are like sharp blades that can become murder weapons if they are used incorrectly, but a small thing for you is enough to kill in front of others! You are sincere to Shui'er, is it really enough to bear to see her die well! If you are self-aware, you are still my friend, and if you have different intentions, let alone dig graves, I will let you live and die in different parts of the world. Saying that, Lu Jue put the bottle of poison in front of her. At this time, Lu Jue still hoped that his affection could save her, but he still couldn't bear to hurt her life, but if she was still obsessed, then don't blame herself for being ruthless.

Lu Jue's words frightened her, knelt down and moved to Lu Jue, kowtowed a few times, and prostrate on the ground: "My lord, the little woman knows that she is wrong, and I ask my lord to raise her noble hand." ”

Lu Jue lowered his eyelids and looked at her, and said, "Your life is up to you, not me!" ”

"I" can still share the true feelings of Xianglan, but that person is kind to herself and recreates, she Yu Xianglan can't be the villain, the kindness is difficult to make it difficult for her to leave, and then she has a deep relationship with her dead husband, she also wants to guard his bones until the day she dies of old age, this is her husband's hometown feelings are also another reason for her reluctance to leave. But now that Lu Jue already knows what she has done before, staying any longer will only make her worse, and whether to go or stay will make her in a dilemma.

Lu Jue saw her struggle, didn't force it any further, knocked on the table with his fingers and said, "I'll give you time to think about it, and give me an answer in the evening" After speaking, he left the guest room. As soon as he went out, he saw Xiangyue standing there, feeling slightly bad in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Xiangyue saluted him and handed over a letter: "Second Miss, she is gone, she asked the slave maid to give this letter to her uncle." ”

Lu Jue hurriedly ran into Zhou Ruoshui's guest room, which was empty, and his heart was even more panicked, he reflexively walked out of the guest room, snatched the letter from Xiangyue's hand, opened the letter with trembling hands, and when he saw the words on it that were as disheartened as death, he thought about the terrible consequences he could think of. Holding the letter tightly in his hand, he asked loudly, "Where did the water go?" ”

Xiangyue was startled by this roar, and replied tremblingly: "The slave maid is serving the eldest lady, and she doesn't know where the second lady will go. ”

Lu Jue roared: "Then what are you doing in a daze, ask someone to find it!" ”

"Yes," Xiangyue replied and ran down in a panic.

It didn't take a while, everyone was assembled, and it was unknown where Zhou Ruoshui, a huge Hangzhou city, would go, although there were only a dozen people in Ququ, they were all sent out, and there was a place that he must have gone to in person.

It is conceivable that Zhou Ruoshui did not return to Zhou's house at all, and even the Zhao Yanjia who covered his ears and stole the bell did not find her, and Lu Jue only then understood that she was deliberately not allowing herself to find it. The sky gradually darkened, and he dragged his tired body back to the inn after looking for people everywhere to no avail, and as soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw Bao Xiaoai and Lei Gang waiting there. He sighed helplessly, and walked straight in without saying anything.

Bao Xiaoai, who was originally recuperating from her injuries, heard that Zhou Ruoshui was missing, where could she recuperate with peace of mind, she begged Lei Gang to bring her here, and now when she saw Lu Jue coming back, she couldn't help but ask immediately: "Has my uncle found Miss." ”

Lu Jue shook his head and said, "Xiao Ai, think about where Shui Er can go?" ”

Bao Xiaoai was embarrassed: "The slaves and maids have told my uncle where the second lady can go, and I really can't think of where the young lady will go." ”

Lu Jue sat down heavily, held his head, and said sadly: "Shui'er, where have you been!" He originally wanted to bring Bao Xiaoai to surprise her on Zhou Ruoshui's birthday. Who knew that before he could send his surprise, he received a surprise first.

"Second aunt, let's have a cup of tea!" After Xiangyue handed the poured tea to Lu Jue, she comforted again: "Hasn't Mrs. Liu come back yet?" She will definitely find the second lady with the black dog! “

Bao Xiaoai is a subordinate, she will look at the face of her master, and when she sees Lu Jue like this, she knows that she can't bother him anymore at this time, and she swallowed back those worried words. also hurriedly persuaded: "Uncle, don't worry, Miss will definitely be fine." The afterglow of his eyes flashed, as if he saw Zhou Ruoshui, and turned his head to see that Zhou Ruoshui was really standing at the door. Said happily: "Miss, Miss Uncle is back." ”

Hearing this, Lu Jue looked up and saw that the person standing at the door was not Zhou Ruoshui or who, seeing that the person returned safely, the anxiety and uneasiness were settled, he got up without saying a word and rushed to Zhou Ruoshui's side, he only had a simple idea at this time was to hold the person tightly in his arms and turn the thousand words into that sentence I'm sorry.

But a few more people discovered Zhou Ruoshui's abnormality at this time, and her gaze no longer had the gentleness of the past, but was replaced by a chill.

The night breeze was the fastest to discover by those who practiced martial arts, but when he noticed Zhou Ruoshui's abnormality and didn't say a reminder, Lu Jue had already arrived at Zhou Ruoshui's side.

It can only be said that no matter how smart he is in the face of love, he will only be an imbecile, if he were someone else at this time, Lu Jue would have discovered her abnormality, but at this time, Lu Jue, who was concerned about Zhou Ruoshui, found nothing. At the moment when he arrived at Zhou Ruoshui's side, Zhou Ruoshui's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and he raised his leg and kicked Lu Jue.

The strength of this kick was so great that Lu Jue was thrown a few feet away.

Zhou Ruoshui's actions stunned everyone, in the eyes of others, she is a typical Jiangnan woman, slender and small, gentle like water, even if she is angry, she is still soft and soft, such a woman would have thought that she would have such strength.

The guards were ordered by the emperor to come to protect Lu Jue's safety, as long as someone threatened his safety, they would kill him at the cost of their lives, no matter who was the other party at this time.

Lu Jue stood up with the support of others, and hurriedly ordered: "Don't hurt her, Xiao 、、、、、、" Before he finished speaking, Zhou Ruoshui attacked again.

Everyone obeyed the order and put the knife back into the sheath one after another, and fought with Zhou Ruoshui with their bare hands, because Lu Jue ordered everyone to dare not be heavy-handed, so naturally they were merciful everywhere, which gave Zhou Ruoshui an opportunity. I don't know when she had an extra dagger in her hand, and she stabbed at Lu Jue with a tight grip.

It was precisely because everyone underestimated her that they missed the best opportunity to protect Lu Jue, but just when everyone thought that Lu Jue would definitely die, Zhou Ruoshui, who was about to stab the dagger on Lu Jue's body, actually stood there and did not act.

Lu Jue, who was closest to her, saw this most clearly, and Lu Jue, who was staring at her, clearly saw Zhou Ruoshui struggling, and also discovered her strangeness. He took out the tokens exchanged at the time of their marriage from his arms, trying to awaken her more will: "Shui'er, you see that I gave you this gourd jade pendant, and my father-in-law handed it back into my hands, I understand what it means, I haven't forgotten you." As he spoke, he took out the jade ring from his collar and wore it around his neck with a red thread and said, "Look, I have always worn the jade ring you gave me, and I have never taken it off." He took Zhou Ruoshui's hand, put the gourd jade pendant in her hand, and continued: "No matter what happens, I will not leave you." ”

Zhou Ruoshui glanced down at the jade pendant, then looked up at Lu Jue, tears flowed down his smooth cheeks, and at the same time, the dagger in his hand also fell, and he covered his head with a very painful expression.

At this moment, Bai Jiu didn't know when he appeared here, he reached out and touched Zhou Ruoshui's head, and there were two more silver hairpins in his hand.

At this time, Zhou Ruoshui seemed to have used up all his strength, and his eyes closed and he went limp.

Lu Jue hurriedly stretched out his hands to support Zhou Ruoshui, not letting her fall to the ground, he looked at Zhou Ruoshui who was unconscious with mixed feelings, and hurriedly asked Bai Jiu who appeared at this time, because he knew that Bai Jiu must know, "What's going on." ”

Bai Jiu replied: "Back to the master, Madame has been infected with soul magic." ”
