Lin Ruan smiled and said, "The princess doesn't have to doubt herself, you just underestimated me too much." ”

This is the truth, Princess Chu is not a simple person, this time she deceived Princess Chu, one is because she has the ability to know the plan of King Chu in advance, and the other reason is because Princess Chu did not take her too seriously from the beginning.

In everyone's eyes, she is just a girl who grew up in the countryside. Although she became the county lord, didn't Xiao Jingchen stand behind her? No one will doubt that her credit has nothing to do with Xiao Jingchen.

The same is true for King Chu and his wife, they have always thought that Lin Ruan's achievement is actually just Xiao Jingchen paving the way for his beloved woman.

In their eyes, Lin Ruan was just a bargaining chip that could be used to contain Xiao Jingchen and negotiate with the Shen family, and there was no other value.

Unexpectedly, Lin Ruan's ability was far beyond their imagination.

Princess Chu knew that Xiao Jingchen could get in so smoothly, including the Shen family's ability to get out of the dungeon so smoothly, all of which had something to do with Lin Ruan, but she really couldn't figure out how Lin Ruan did it.

During the time that Lin Ruan was on the mountain, she lived under her nose, with the two maids watching in the open, and the night tare in the dark, all her actions were seen by them, and there was nothing abnormal at all.

What went wrong?

Princess Chu was very curious, so she asked too.

Lin Ruan covered her lips and smiled: "The princess thinks too much, how can I, a defenseless little girl, be able to contact King Xiao who is hundreds of miles away." Don't blame me for your failures, I can't afford it. ”

Princess Chu saw that she refused to say, so she didn't ask again. Anyway, if you don't figure it out, it doesn't make much sense.

Lin Ruan estimated the time and felt that it was not too early, so he said: "I have been taken care of by the princess during this time in the mountains, although the princess's kindness to me is purposeful, but I am also willing to accept this feeling." So don't worry, princess, during your time in the dungeon, I will arrange your life and not let you be wronged. ”

Princess Chu smiled: "Then thank you to the county lord." ”

Lin Ruan turned around and walked out of the dungeon, and as soon as he walked to the door, he saw a group of very embarrassed women, escorted by the Jinyi guard with a rope tied to their wrists.

These women are the concubines of the King of Chu, and Lin Xiang'er is also among them.

Lin Ruan was a little surprised, weren't these women taken away from the secret passage by that Manager Zhao? How did you get caught again?

Ding Rui, who was in charge of arresting these women, saw Lin Ruan, so he came over and saluted: "I've seen the county lord." ”

Lin Ruan asked, "How did you get these people back?" ”

She knew how these people left, but she didn't think to tell Xiao Jingchen.

After all, she has no grudges with them, and these backhouse women have never done anything hurtful. Even if there were, it was just pinching each other with the concubines of the King of Chu in the back house. She can't care about this kind of thing, as long as she hasn't harmed innocent people, she won't care.

It's just that I didn't expect these people to be arrested by Jinyiwei again.

Ding Rui replied: "We found these people by accident, they seem to have been ordered by the princess of Chu to be killed, if we go at night, it is estimated that these people will die." ”

Lin Ruan didn't expect it to be like this, Princess Chu actually wanted to kill these women.

It's ruthless.

But she didn't say much, and turned her head to leave.

Lin Xiang'er suddenly rushed over and shouted: "Lin Ruan, save me, I don't want to die, you save me!" ”

Lin Ruan glanced back at her: "You look like my brain is in water?" If you don't kill with your own hands, you'll be fine. ”

Ding Rui stepped forward to drive Lin Xiang'er back into the team.

Lin Xiang'er struggled desperately and shouted: "You let them let me go, I'll tell you a secret, related to your life experience." Don't you want to get your loved ones back? I've got what you're looking for! ”

Lin Ruan sneered, "Don't you know that I have already recognized my ancestors and returned to my ancestors?" You're lagging a bit of a bit. ”

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to Ding Rui and said, "I have a grudge against this woman, you should keep a close eye on her, don't let her escape." ”

Ding Rui immediately clenched his fists and responded: "Yes." ”

Lin Xiang'er was so anxious that she screamed, wanting to catch Lin Ruan, but she couldn't reach it. "Lin Ruan, I was wrong, I will make amends to you, I was wrong before, can you help me this time, I beg you."

Lin Ruan was indifferent, the person Lin Xiang'er was sorry for was the original owner, and the person who wanted to forgive her was also the original owner, so she should go to the original owner in person to make amends.

By the time Xiao Jingchen and the Shen family returned to the house, it was already dark.

They had been busy all day, and they didn't bother to come up to eat at noon, so Lin Ruan could only ask people to send the food down the mountain.

Seeing them coming back at this time, Lin Ruan hurriedly greeted them and supported King Shen Jun.

King Shen snorted and said, "Your grandfather is not old enough to walk. ”

Although he said disgusting words, the corners of his eyes were full of comfortable smiles.

Lin Ruan obediently helped him to walk into the hall: "Grandfather is still young, where is he old?" I'm coquettish with you, I haven't seen you for a day, I miss you. I've also made you two of your favorite dishes, so you can eat more of them in a while. ”

King Shen Jun's heart is so comfortable, don't mention it.

A few people went to wash their hands and sat down in the dining room, and King Shen took the lead in occupying the throne. Xiao Jingchen naturally sat in the second position on his left, and Lin Ruan hesitated for a moment, then sat between him and King Shen Jun.

King Shen turned his head to look at her, and then looked at Xiao Jingchen, but he didn't speak, but his face was a little stinky.

Today is busy all day, everyone is tired and hungry, the food prepared by Lin Ruan is full of color and fragrance, and the few people who originally wanted to discuss something at the dinner table can't care about anything else as soon as they sit down, and the chopsticks don't stop as soon as they wave it.

It wasn't until after eating and drinking enough that Shen Tingye put down the dishes and chopsticks and arched his hand towards Lin Ruan and said, "Cousin, I was a little reckless this morning, and I hurt you, and I am here to make amends to you." ”

Lin Ruan smiled: "What kind of injury is this, it's just a little bit of skin." Where are the children of our Shen family so squeamish, besides, aren't you also afraid that King Chu will hurt me before you make a move, maybe if you do it later, King Chu will really cut my neck. ”

Xiao Jingchen said faintly beside him, "He doesn't dare." ”

If the King of Chu dared to hurt Lin Ruan, he would definitely chop off his claws with his own hands.

Lin Ruan pursed his lips with a smile, secretly stretched out his hand, and held Xiao Jingchen's big palm under the table.

Xiao Jingchen immediately wrapped her little hand in the palm of her hand with her backhand and rubbed it gently, making Lin Ruan's heart a little crispy, and her face wanted to turn a little red.

In order not to let the people at the table see that something was wrong, she hurriedly asked Shen Tingye: "Cousin, how is your injury?" ”
