His blood flowed into the water, and the waves of water rushed onto Rao's embroidered shoes, leaving a faint red trace.

Rao Tu closed her eyes gently, obviously her heart was turbulent, but she wanted to pretend to be casual, "If Princess Xunyang does something to me, how will your people protect me?" ”

He looked at her and said softly: "The Pei family is still here, Xunyang won't do it." What's more, Xunyang's plan with you, Shen Zhu is clear in his heart, he is not resting Pei's family, he is giving you a life talisman. ”

Rao Tu frowned and did not speak.

He said: "Look at the blood stains on my back, has it turned from black to red?" ”

Rao Tu looked in the light of the lantern, "It's already red." ”

Hearing this, he took out a medicine bottle and a needle wearing silver thread from his arms, "Help me with medicine." ”

Rao Di hesitated a little, he made a false gesture for a long time, and when he saw that she didn't move, he pulled out the cork by himself, sprinkled the medicine powder inside on the wound with his backhand, and then put a thin needle between his two fingers and pierced into the cut flesh.

I just slammed in with my senses, without blinking.

Rao Tu pressed his hand, "I'll come." She picked up the needle and threaded it through the wound.

A smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Yanning's mouth, and he put his hand on his knee and said slowly: "In that uninhabited mountain stream, the clothes you sewed for him are really unsightly. If I remember correctly, your embroidery is excellent. ”

"How does the prince know?"

His eyes lit up, "Many years ago, in front of a small vendor in Qingzhou, I spent eight copper coins to buy a purse. ”

Rao's hand trembled, and he said leisurely: "Be serious! ”

Rao Tu smiled helplessly: "It turns out that I was targeted by the prince so early?" ”

He said, "Sew this king better." ”

"The prince hasn't seen this wound on your back? It's irretrievable. She quickly pierced the wound a few times, sewing the wound and biting off the silver thread.

Xiao Yanning felt her face close, and her breath sprayed onto his skin, a little itchy. He smiled and said, "What? Take the initiative to flatter? ”

Rao Di said lightly: "The little woman is wrong, she should directly break the silver thread and twist the skin and flesh together." As he spoke, he presented the needle to him.

Xiao Yanning didn't take it, and said generously: "You take it first, this king thinks you serve very well, and next time you will help this king sew." The tone was arrogant, staring at her, with a look of charity.

Rao Tu frowned, snorted, and put the embroidery needle into his hand, "Who wants to look at that ugly scar?" ”

He suddenly took her hand, "It's really ugly? ”

Rao Tu pulled out her hand, "It's generally ugly." ”

He laughed, "If we continue to talk, this king will probably fall in love with you." ”

Seeing that he casually took the embroidery needle into his arms, Rao reminded him: "Be careful to pierce the skin and flesh, and string the tendons and veins." ”

He didn't care, got up and looked at the vast lake, and sighed, "I want to talk to Shen Zhu." ”

"What are you talking about?"

"Let's talk about where I'm going."

"He won't help you."

"Oh?"

Rao Di was suddenly stunned, "You...... You're going to threaten him with peach blossom dew? ”

He shook his head, "Don't worry, Shen Zhu is a gentleman, how can this king act as a villain?" ”

Rao Di sneered, "What am I worried about, besides, the villain has also done too much, what are you talking about now?" ”

"I will give you the antidote to the peach blossom dew, whether you save it or not, I will not interfere."

"What the prince means, Rao Di doesn't quite understand."

"I think I've made it clear enough."

Rao Di shook her head and said, "I don't want the antidote, don't give it to me." ”

"Why?"

"I don't want to."

He laughed a few times and stared at her eyes to play with taste: "I really can't talk to you, otherwise this king may really want to be a villain." ”

Rao Di's temples twitched a few times, "Lord Wang, please." ”

Xiao Yanning said "um", and the raft rowed back to the riverside to send Rao Tu ashore. She stood on the shore and watched as a raft of people floated on the lake and was quickly annihilated by the mist.

She has a feeling that this country, whether this person can enter the master or not, will cause great turmoil because of him.

Early in the morning of the second day, two decrees came from the palace, which landed in Shen Zhu's Huangmen Mansion.

The first decree was to promote Shen Zhu to the rank of waiter of the Ministry of Rites and the right sacrificial wine of the country's prince.

The second decree is to seal Shen Zhuru's wife Rao Tu as the sixth grade of the county monarch, and give the name Wanyi.

In particular, the second holy decree stirred up a thousand waves in the capital. Wanyi Junjun, how can that demon girl be virtuous, what kind of character and what can she do, can she be worthy of the word Wanyi?

Dozens of Confucian students gathered in front of Shen Zhu's mansion, shouting that the demon girl would bring disaster to the country, and she must get rid of the hairpin and get out of the capital. A girl who hooks the fence can become the king of the Liupin County, it is simply a big joke in the world!

Shen Zhu stood on the high pavilion, looking at the Confucian scholars making trouble on the streets outside the mansion through the window, and he said softly: "The most upright is a scholar, and the most pedantic is a scholar." was played by those who took power, but they didn't know it. ”

Rao Di looked at the vermilion seal on the golden silk edict and was silent. There are indeed conspiracy and calculations everywhere in the capital, and she is not so stupid that she can't tell whether the emperor is rewarding sweet dates or mallets.

As the old Confucian of the National Prison said, how can the notorious Golan woman get this honor? This graceful gift from the monarch of the county just pushed her to the forefront and made her the laughing stock of the whole capital.

Moreover, as soon as the Pei family died, I was afraid that the emperor would have another will to smash it and order Shen Zhu to marry Princess Xunyang.

She didn't mind whether Shen Zhu married a princess or not, but she was fiddled with for no reason, and she was really stuffed.

Shen Zhu looked at her tightly frowning brows, "The emperor is not targeting you. ”

Rao Di said "um", "Naturally, it's not aimed at me, it's to warn you, but it's my life." ”

"Since you are being targeted, you will be unable to escape for a while. Unless the old emperor dies and the new emperor ascends the throne. He looked at Rao's expression and said slowly.

"You said that your life will be mine in half a year, so I'm not in a hurry." Rao got up, gave him a slight blessing, and turned to go downstairs.

"What are you going for?"

"I can't stand the noise, so I went back to the dock."

"Princess Xunyang sent a few dead soldiers."

"My lord is really considerate, those people are here to help me, so as not to accidentally suffer a misfortune."

"Are you really stupid or pretending?"

She finally put the gaze on his face that she hadn't cast for a long time, and looking at his faintly worried expression, she smiled and said, "My lord, if I die, I can save you a lot of trouble." I'm just a fence girl, why are you acting like this? ”

He walked to her side, looked down at the stubbornness on her face, and asked, "Why is the peach blossom fragrance on your body faint?" ”

She lowered her eyes, didn't look at him again, and turned away.

In the afternoon, Rao Tu and the mountain ghost walked in the plum blossom dock forest to fold the plum, the mountain ghost said: "Spring, summer, autumn and winter are back, Princess Xunyang sent a few dead soldiers here, the martial arts should not be low, if they really want to attack the girl, I am afraid that I can't stop it alone." ”

"What about Yang Qian?"

"Also on the island."

"With the princess's temper, she will definitely make sure that Pei is dead before doing anything to me."

"That'...... What does that girl mean? ”

"I'm going to see her."

"Pei's? Why? Why go see that dead slut! ”

"Old accounts, should also be calculated clearly, she died in no apparent way, I feel uneasy. Furthermore, how can my life and death be pressed on her? I'm going to see her off myself. By the way, tell Princess Xunyang that if she wants to marry Shen Zhu, she can do everything she can, but if she wants to kill me, it is not as simple as sending a few dead soldiers. ”

In the evening, Rao Tu came to Fangcui Garden with a plum blossom jade vase. The little girl knew that her master had lost power, and now that Mrs. Rao was named Wanyi Junjun, she naturally didn't dare to stop her, and invited her to Pei's bedroom.

Entering to meet the smell of medicine, Rao Di placed the plum blossom jade vase on the table, Pei Qingwei slowly opened her eyes, saw her figure in the haze, and said hoarsely: "Are you here?" ”

Rao Tu fiddled with the plum branches, "Madame, do you look good at this plum blossom?" ”

Pei Qingwei raised her eyes with difficulty to look at the plum blossoms on the table, she laughed, and said lightly: "The plum blossoms are cold, but they are afraid of warmth." ”

"Yes, after a few days in this greenhouse, the flowers begin to wither one by one. When the plum blossoms fall, I don't know if my sister can still see it. ”

"You used to call me Sister Pei, but I never thought that the woman who was weak and didn't know how to cry in the dark would be so vicious today."

"yes, I didn't expect that either. Isn't all this due to my sister? ”

She sat down on the embroidered pier, a foot away from her. "My sister is really lucky compared to Ah Yu back then, the dozens of sticks that my sister gave Ah Yu back then, in addition to killing the child in Ah Yu's womb, almost killed her life. She was struggling to breathe in the leaky grass house, and even if her sister was dying now, it was a warm pavilion embroidery bed. ”

"You don't have to be complacent...... Ahem...... What if he knew who you were? He is a person, in this life, destined to have no result with you. ”

"Really? Can you tell me a question or two? ”

"You can't ask for it after all......"

Rao Tu sighed slightly: "His love is not rare to me, and his life is at my fingertips." Please also rest assured, sister, after you die, I will crush your bones and ashes, turn you into dirt, and pay spring flowers. ”

"Hehe, I, Pei Qingwei, only care about the things before and after death, it's your care, and I have nothing to do with it." She slowly pulled out the silver hairpin and said with tears in her eyes: "This hairpin was given to me by his mother." Xu Yu, I saw Yan Bing when I was ten years old, do you think I really met him for the first time in the wind and dust? If it were to be true, I would have been his wife. ”

Rao Tu stared at the hairpin, which had grooves to hide venom. Pei Shi let out a long sigh, "I wanted to return this hairpin to him, but I waited for a long time, but he still didn't come." ”

"He's not coming."

Pei sneered, grabbed the hairpin, and stabbed it hard at the mouth of the heart.

Rao Di closed her eyes, her heart suddenly became empty, and Pei's silent death did not bring her the slightest pleasure of revenge.

Dull, so dull that you can't breathe.

She leaned against the wall and walked out of the Garden, the desolate sunset, exhausting its last rays.

In the jujube forest, the green jujube is tired and lovely, bending the branches.

She reached out and plucked a date, and when she bit into it, the sweet juice overflowed.

The green dates are extremely sweet, and the tears are extremely bitter.

A figure rolled into the forest, and a clear voice said: "Take your life!" ”

Rao Tu stood under the jujube tree and saw Pei's girl's silver pot flying towards her with an Emei steel thorn in her hand. Rao Tu didn't move.

"Yo! Light work is good! ”

The mountain ghost flew from the diagonal direction lightly, stepped on the waist and abdomen of the silver kettle, and slammed her into the jujube tree.

The silver pot spat out a mouthful of blood, got up and held the steel thorn and continued to press towards Raodi.

Five men in black came from all sides and entangled the mountain ghosts in it.

Rao Di was a little surprised, she thought that the silver kettle was to kill her in order to be loyal to the Pei family, but now it seems that the owner of the silver kettle is not Pei's but Princess Xunyang.

Those dead soldiers in Xunyang will not kill her, only the little girl silver pot will kill her, even if Shen Zhu suspects, there will be no substantial evidence.

A figure slid down from the tree and landed in front of Rao, parrying a fatal stab for her, and kicking the silver kettle away with another kick.

The silver pot fell to the ground, his mouth moved slightly, as if he had swallowed a few mouthfuls of blood, and raised the steel thorn again to aim at Rao.

The masked man in front of Rao Di sneered, raised his hand and twisted it in the air, bypassing the wrist of the silver kettle in a mysterious way, snatching her steel thorn in an instant, and with a flick of his two fingers, he was about to shoot at the center of the silver kettle's eyebrows.

Rao grabbed the man's hand and shouted, "Don't hurt her! ”

The man glanced at Rao Di with a pair of eyes, a little surprised, and bent his fingers to deflect, nailing the steel thorn to the back of a dead man who was haunted by a mountain ghost.

The silver kettle was slapped on the forehead by him, staggered backwards, and fainted on a tree.

Outside the forest, Yang Qian came with dozens of guards, and the black-clothed man in front of Rao Di didn't care about those guards, but looked at a robe floating in the distance. With a smile in his eyes, the man in black took a few steps back around Rao's waist, walked through the forest, and soon reached the north shore of the lake, jumped over the high wall, jumped over the narrow alley, and fell into another high wall.

Taoist priest Lu Zhiming chased to the wall, paused, and then turned around and left, but he didn't chase anymore.

Rao Tu was in the arms of the man in black, reached out and tore off his face towel, and said coldly: "What do you mean by this, Fifth Prince?" ”

"I saved your life, and you are so grateful to me?" He asked with a smile.

Rao Tu struggled a few times, but he hugged him tighter, "You really can't sing Bodhisattva Man?" He narrowed his eyes and said slowly.

Rao was stunned for a moment, and then she was annoyed, and she didn't dare to move at the moment, for fear that he would be wild for a while, and he would have no power to restrain the chicken, how could he withstand his strength.

This man is a madman!

"Any allusions?" She asked in a low voice.

He sneered a few times, "Bodhisattva, it's a song of murder." ”

Rao Di was stunned again, "A murderous song? She couldn't help but repeat.

Xiao Yanning stopped talking, and sank into a pitch-black forest at a very fast speed, taking a few steps back and forth, only to see that in front of him, an inconspicuous house appeared in front of him, and a green light emanated from the window.

It's like a haunted house.

He put Rao Di down, Rao Tu looked at the small house, and then looked back at the forest, "This is the technique of Qimen Dunjia, what are you hiding me here for?" ”

Xiao Yanning smiled and said: "Hide you here, you sing the Bodhisattva to me every night, anyway, this place is secret, even if you shout through your throat, no one will hear it." ”

Rao Tu panicked slightly, and smiled reluctantly, "You're not so boring, are you?" ”

"This king is boring, it's obviously fun." As he spoke, he forcibly pulled Rao into the house.

As soon as Rao Di stepped into the threshold, she immediately smelled a faint fragrance, she was secretly frightened in her heart, and she turned her head to run, but was pulled by Xiao Yanning.

"What are you running? Doesn't this king look like a person who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade? ”

Rao Di held her breath, even if she was suffocated to death, she didn't want to be drugged and humiliated by this scoundrel.

Xiao Yanning: "Yo! With a sound, he looked Rao Tu up and down, and said thoughtfully: "This king has to be impressed, it turns out that Rao Tu girl is also a first-class chaste woman in the world. ”

Rao Di glared at him fiercely, her face was red, and she just refused to breathe.

Xiao Yanning was helpless and threatened: "Are you looking at this king to help you cross your breath?" All right! The king was very happy. As he spoke, he pinched her chin and was about to close her red lips.

Rao Di looked at the beautiful face that was close at hand, she couldn't move her hand, and in a hurry, she suddenly raised her leg and hit him with a knee, hitting him somewhere under the abdomen.

Xiao Yanning snorted, bent over in pain, and pointed at Rao Tu speechless.

She turned and ran, and the forest outside the house was pitch black, and there seemed to be a strange sound that reminded her of the howl of a wild wolf she had heard in that mass grave many years ago. But she hesitated only for a moment, and then ran into the woods.

In the dark, she couldn't see her fingers, and she ran in one direction for an unknown amount of time, but she never ran out of the woods. There seemed to be countless flying insects in the air, buzzing, and she knew she was being wound in. Qimen Dunjia is extremely mysterious, if you don't know the specific direction, it is easy to fall into a strange circle and never get out.

However, Rao Di was at ease for the time being, even if she couldn't get out, Xiao Yanning couldn't catch up for a while. If she was caught and humiliated by that madman, she would rather never get out.

After walking for a while, she suddenly felt a tingling itch on the exposed skin on her neck, reached out and touched it, and her heart chuckled, and a big bag rose in her vein.

She exclaimed, the big bag was so soft that she didn't feel anything when she touched it, only a slight pain at the root. In an instant, she had already reacted, the big bag was not on her skin at all, but something lying in her veins to drink blood.

In a hurry, she slapped the thing on it, only to hear the sound of a blood bag cracking, and her hand was sticky, I don't know if it was her own blood or the disgusting slurry of the bloodsucking bugs.

Raodi's footsteps slowed down at this time, and her scalp tingled for a while, because she found that she had an itch not only on her neck, but also on her arms, behind her ears, and even on her chest.

She was so frightened that her legs went limp, knowing that she was in big trouble now, she was not afraid of death, but she was most afraid of these bugs. At that time, in the thatched hut in the deserted village, Shen Zhu wanted to do something with her, but she didn't agree, because she was really afraid that there were insects on the ground, not a means to get away with it.

Just when she was panicked and didn't know what to do, she hit a wall of flesh, a faint smell of sandalwood, which made her feel at ease for no reason, and she fell into his arms and fainted, only remembering that the person called two words in her ear "Ah Yu".

Rao Di was awakened by the pain, and in the dim firelight, she saw Shen Zhu raise his head from her neck, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth.

She moved slightly, he held her down and said, "There is a poisonous insect's head, which was slapped by you and can't be pulled out of the flesh, I will suck it out for you." ”

said that Rao's heart trembled, and at this time, she didn't care about any grudges, she just hoped that he would quickly suck out the disgusting things.

He took several more sips, and finally waited for the blood to be free of black slag before applying cold ointment to the wound.

Rao Di reluctantly sat up, looked down and saw that there were many red spots on the chest of her arms, all of which had been smeared with cool ointment, and she almost asked with a crying voice, "Is there anything else?" ”

Shen Zhu shook his head, his face gloomy.

Rao Tu saw that her clothes had changed from coats to small clothes, and now she was only wearing one of Shen Zhu's middle clothes, "What is it?" ”

Shen Zhu drank and rinsed his mouth, but did not answer.

A gentle voice came from outside: "It is a grass tick that likes to poke its head under the skin to suck blood, and can be forced out with salt water." ”

It was Lu Zhiming's voice.

Shen Zhu said: "Except for the one on your neck that was smashed by you, the rest have been cleaned up." ”

Another voice sighed, "It really took a lot of effort for Lord Shen. ”

Rao Di listened to that voice, and couldn't wait to stab that person to death with a sword, who else could it be, Xiao Yanning, the fifth king.

Shen Zhu snorted coldly, lifted the curtain and went out, "The fifth prince doesn't seem to have a request for Shen!" ”

Xiao Yanning smiled: "Could it be that I have to kneel down and beg for perfection, crying for my father and calling my mother?" ”

"You robbed my man, is this what it looks like to ask for someone?" Shen Zhu said coldly.

Xiao Yanning sighed: "Lord Shen is clean, if not, how can you come here to meet me?" Not to mention meeting, it's hard to catch a sentence, right? ”

Rao Di hated it very much, she finally knew why Xiao Yanning wanted to save her back then, and why she helped her come to Shen Zhu for revenge. He saw that Shen Zhu had no weakness, and he had to plant a weakness in him in order to contain him.

She didn't care how Xiao Yanning designed Shen Zhu, she only hated herself for being used as a chess piece.

Under the dim light, she looked down at the countless red dots on her body, and saw the pot of sake that Shen Zhu used to rinse her mouth, her heart fluttered, and a trace of complicated feelings floated.

Lu Zhiming asked in a warm voice outside, "What do the five kings have to do?" Let's start with it. ”

Xiao Yanning said: "You definitely can't stay in Jinling." ”

Shen Zhu sneered: "Since you know that you will die if you stay in Jinling, you still don't pack up your things, and you can escape from the rivers and lakes when it is good to run away now." ”

"This king will never run."

"You're asking for too much."

"How?" He laughed to himself, "My surname is Xiao too." ”

Shen Zhu said bluntly: "The four places are vassals, and there is definitely no place for you, so you don't have to think about it." Even if the ministers died, the emperor would not agree. ”

Xiao Yanning lazily responded: "I know this, I want to find a place, and ask Lord Shen to help me." ”

"You want Shudi throat, Xiangyang City?"

"Lord Shen knows what I mean."

"Unless there is turmoil in the north, there is no possibility."

"There's going to be action in the North."

"Do the five princes want to seek power, provoke chaos in the north, and put the people in the north in the midst of war?" Shen Zhu's voice was slightly angry.

"I'm a wasted person, how can I have that ability? There will definitely be chaos in the north, and the envoy's departure from Beijing is a signal, and it has nothing to do with me. It's just reliable news I've gotten. ”

Shen Zhu pondered for a moment, "This matter ...... Let me think about it. ”

"Well, yes, Lord Shen can think about it here. By the way, I talked with the beauty for a long night, so I won't bother it first. Mr. Lu, do you want to stay? ”

Of course, Lu Zhiming would not stay, and walked out of the room with Xiao Yanning. The room was quiet for a while, and Shen Zhu sat outside the curtain. Rao Di could only see his dark figure falling on the curtain.

He's drinking.
