Chapter 538: Heart for Service 4
Under the willows by the lake, Murong Chong looked at Lin Ruo, who had been silent, and felt a little uneasy: "Ah Ruo, you...... Why don't you speak? Suddenly thought of something, and excused her, "Is it a sore throat?" I hear your voice is a little hoarse, isn't it fully recovered? β
The corners of Lin Ruo's mouth hooked up a wry smile, now she was just a little hoarse, Murong Chong wouldn't know that when she first discovered that she could make a sound, that voice was only a little better than Tang Ruo's hoarse voice like the friction of dead tree bark. That's why she let Youcao and Zhuxuan hide it from Murong Chong and everyone.
In fact, when Master Mo came to check on her, he had already found that she had recovered, but it was only because she hadn't spoken for a long time, so she was like this, taking into account the concerns in Lin Ruo's heart, so she didn't break it - such a hoarse and rough voice, I'm afraid it will be more worrying, right?
Therefore, in the past few days, she has not stopped stewing pears with rock sugar, and at the same time, the daily tea has been replaced with warm water mixed with autumn pear paste, talking alone by this silent and uninhabited lake, resting for a while, and then making a sound, back and forth a few times.
The reason why Youcao and Zhuxuan were waiting outside was because Lin Ruo didn't want them to hear their rough and hoarse voices; This is true for these two girls who serve closely, not to mention Murong Chong.
However, he still found out.
Fortunately, most of her voice had recovered, but it was still a little hoarse to hear.
Lin Ruo looked at Murong Chong and said slowly, "Why, do you want to say this?" β
With a thoughtless sentence, Murong Chong was slightly stunned, and suddenly understood what Lin Ruo was referring to, and looked at her gaze, full of tenderness: "Because I realize that I can't lose you anymore." β
After marrying into the palace for more than a year, the two have experienced many disasters, and this time they almost lost their lives. If he didn't say it, he was afraid that he would miss it out in such a vague way.
Lin Ruo stared at Murong Chong's gaze, looked at each other for a long time, sneered, and shook his head.
Murong Chong's heart tightened: "You don't believe it? β
"Yes, I don't believe it." Lin Ruo responded quickly this time, but her speed of speech was still slow, but with inexplicable certainty, "You are because I want to exchange my life for my life, and my heart is moved, so I will 'better pity the person in front of me'." β
"It's not like that! Arroβ"
Murong Chong immediately objected, but was interrupted by Lin Ruo.
"Lord Wang, you should know Mr. Wolong's 'empty city plan', right?"
Murong Chong didn't know why Lin Ruo suddenly turned the topic to this, but he still nodded.
Ma Tan carelessly lost the street pavilion, and the Wei general Sima Yi led an army of 150,000 into Xicheng, but in addition to civilian officials in Xicheng, there were more than 1,000 old and weak soldiers, and fighting against the enemy army was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. Therefore, Zhuge Kongming laid out an empty city plan, the four gates were opened, he himself burned incense and stroked the qin at the head of the city, Sima Yi suspected that there was an ambush in the city, did not dare to advance, and ordered to retreat. The danger of Xicheng was easily solved, and the prince knew that Sima Yi clearly led an army of 150,000 to take the small Xicheng, but why didn't he dare to attack? β
ββ¦β¦ Sima Yiyan: Kong Ming was cautious all his life and did not dare to take risks. The gates of the city shall be opened, and there shall be an ambush in them. If our army advances, it will inevitably be defeated. Murong Chong replied unhurriedly, he probably thought of what Lin Ruo wanted to say.
Sure enough, Lin Ruo continued: "I am also a cautious person, and if I am not more than eighty percent sure, I will never take risks." I am sure that Jiuxing will make a move, I am sure that Tang Xiao will lead people to deal with Tang Xiao, and I am sure that Ah Shu will arrive in time. You may not know that before I said that to you, I already knew that they had arrived. Lin Ruo pointed to his nose, "My sense of smell is outstanding, the prince shouldn't forget it, right?" β
Hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed on Murong Chong's face, but he did not have the anger that Lin Ruo expected: "Then why did you let Leng Shiyi come to save me?" β
The surprise in Lin Ruo's eyes flashed, but he quickly covered it up and replied, "Lu Ming of the Nine Stars." β
Murong Chong looked directly at Lin Ruo's gaze and said aggressively: "You are talking nonsense, you leave a letter for Wuxian and let Leng Shiyi obey his arrangement and put my life first." Wu Yi and Leng Shi Shi are both here to save me, and the shadow guards, including Wu Ji, sent a total of six people, in order not to expose the strength of the palace. If it weren't for Leng Shiyi privately looking for Lu Ming to help, you would ...... You're ......"
Saying this, Murong Chong was afraid for a while.
If it weren't for Lu Ming, Lin Ruo might have become Tang Xiao's sword ghost.
Lin Ruo didn't show a trace of embarrassment on his face, and calmly responded: "It's said without a trace, right?" Oh, lord, how do you know that I didn't deliberately set up all this, to let you know the truth I want you to know through the mouth of no trace? Ah Shu's stepfather is the shadow guard of the old prince, and Ah Shu also admitted that he obeys his father's will, and your life is more important than my life. The reason why I gave such a handwritten letter to No Trace was just to win the letter of the shadow guards, and it was more convenient for them to listen to my dispatch. I expected that Ah Shu would put your life first, so I made it clear in my letter to Brother Li that he asked him to tell Leng Shu to go to Jiuxing to borrow a master to protect me. Isn't it clear how cold the killer's heart is? How could Ah Shu make his own decisions and make such a move? β
Murong Chong still didn't believe Lin Ruo's words: "Then when Lu Ming rescued you, how could you be so surprised?" β
"Because I have never seen Lu Ming, and I was taken away by someone, naturally there will be some surprises, this is human nature."
"But Leng Shiyi said it himself, Lu Ming was found by him on his own initiative."
Lin Ruo's face showed a hint of surprise: "This is impossible!" β
"Why can't it be?" Murong Chong asked rhetorically, "His stepfather is the deputy shadow envoy of my father's king, Fei Ling, he doesn't dare to disobey his father's last order at all, I have broken his identity, he should also be regarded as a member of the shadow guard." The shadow guard is loyal to me, and he will naturally tell the truth. β
Lin Ruo frowned, bit his lip with his teeth, turned his face sideways, and didn't dare to look directly at Murong Chong.
Murong Chong gently pinched her chin, forcing her to look at him: "So, you didn't say this on purpose because they came without blame, you really planned to trade your own life for mine, right?" β
In the tentative tone, Lin Ruo caught a flaw that was not easy to detect: "You deceived me? β
Leng Shu is not a person who says much, even if Murong Chong reveals his identity and admits it, there is no need to say more about Lu Ming. However, just now because Murong Chong pointed out that Ming Leng's father-in-law was the former deputy shadow envoy of the shadow guard, she was surprised and fell into the trap.
"Yes, I'll lie to you," Murong Chong chuckled, a sly and gentle smile appeared on his perennial rigid face, making Lin Ruo unable to take his eyes off, "Leng Shiyi didn't know that I had already guessed his identity, and I didn't call him for questioning." Trust my own judgment, Arro, you said that on purpose. You said you wouldn't lie to me, you just- broke your promise. β
Lin Ruo frowned and was silent.
"Still, I know you're angry with me, so I don't blame you." Murong Chong still smiled gently, lowered his head, pressed his forehead against Lin Ruo, and confessed affectionately again, "Ah Ruo, I like you." You like me too, you like it as much as I do, you like it very much, don't you? "Hundred Plating" The latest chapter of "Female Businesswoman Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
