Chapter 129: Life Matters
"Mianmian is abrupt today, and it broke the good deeds of Madame, but Mianmian is not a person who is pure and upright, fortunately we are not harmed, everything still has room to turn around, why don't you discuss?" Ruan Mianmian's face was expressionless, and she really didn't want to show any extra expressions, the pain in the heart of her feet had reached her whole body, and she straightened her body but still couldn't hide the slight shaking of her body.
"The county lord of Ruliang is so articulate, and he deserves to be the first to eat and broadcast in the capital, but the concubine has also discussed with you well, and flattered you to the fullest, but you didn't look at me at all at all, and the whole Yipinxiang didn't really accept me, and now when you die, what do you say to me to discuss it well, isn't it ridiculous?"
Mrs. Shilang's external and soft and gentle face was all put away at this moment, only disdain and disgust, she couldn't tell why she hated Ruan Mianmian so much, because she didn't want to cooperate with her? Or is it because she has the love and care of all people? But none of this matters, God let her break in when she was doing things by herself, it was her own bad life, so she should be buried under the flowers and trees to rot and die.
"It's true that we never accepted you, that's because we don't look down on your behavior, but we never provoke you, which time didn't you set up a situation to involve a pinxiang, we only seek self-preservation, never intentionally harm others, and hope that you can turn back." Ruan Mianmian had fine beads of sweat on his forehead, the tip of his nose was moist as if he had just been drenched in rain, but his eyes were extremely firm.
"Mrs. Shilang, you can think about it carefully, killing a palace maid in the palace may still have the possibility of getting out, but killing a county lord is by no means easy to get rid of the relationship. On the contrary, today you let me go, I can help cover up all the things you did today, and when the royal brother asked, it can also be said that this little palace maid wants to assassinate me and be killed after I find out, isn't it easier than you trying to hide it? ”
Ruan Mianmian's momentum is not simple, but the relationship between the past and the harm is clearly explained in his words, and it depends on how Mrs. Shilang chooses.
"Maybe you could easily cover it up, but I don't believe you." Mrs. Shilang paused, touched the green jade ring on her hand, inlaid with cold and luxurious gemstones, "There is no evidence, if I let you go, what if you turn around and go to the emperor and the queen mother to sue me and arrest me?" Keeping your mouth shut, you don't need me to trust you, there is a way to shut up forever, the most reassuring will not take a little risk. ”
Mrs. Lang raised her hand slightly, and the gems on the green jade ring were suddenly illuminated by the light spots sprinkled by the shade of the tree, and she only felt a moment of dazzling in Ruan Mianmian's eyes, and then the sturdy palace maid stepped forward and approached Ruan Mianmian, stretched out a broad hand to cover Ruan Mianmian's slender neck, easily pinched her neck and forced her to a not very thin tree trunk without much effort, so that her body was close to the trunk, her clothes were thin, and she only felt a tingling pain in her back, It was the undulating bark on the trunk that pressed Ruan Mianmian's soft skin through her clothes.
The palace maid just pushed her to prevent her from moving, and didn't use much strength in her hands, Ruan Mianmian subconsciously raised her neck, and was able to barely maintain her breathing, but this posture made her lose all her ability to resist, like a fish on the board to be slaughtered.
"Madame Squire... Don't be impulsive, kill me, you will hurt many people, and everyone in the Duke of Wei will die. Ruan Mianmian slipped a tear from the corner of her eye, and the soles of her feet touched the soil, which made her pain even more, and the words she said gradually became out of breath, although they were threatening, they really had no effect.
When Mrs. Shilang heard Ruan Mianmian threatening her with someone from the Wei State Mansion, her expression did not change: "I don't care. Then he instructed the sturdy palace maid: "It's okay, let's do it." ”
The palace maid immediately retracted her five fingers, gradually pinched Ruan Mianmian's snow-white neck, and with the other hand, she groped neatly on the sleeves and hair of Ruan Mianmian's hands, and searched out all the things and jade pendants that Ruan Mianmian had brought on her body to prove her identity, and left no jewelry. Then the palace maid also tore off a thin golden collar from under the collar of Ruan Mianmian's neck, but the pendant hanging under the collar didn't know when it was lost, thinking that it was where it fell when she ran away, and she didn't pay too much attention to it, and the palace maid stuffed the collar into those jewelry.
Ruan Mianmian's supple hair was all spread out, and while breathing hard, she watched as the palace maid put all these things together and handed them to Mrs. Squire. Is it over, are you really going to die here? Ruan Mianmian's eyes blinked twice, only to see the swaying leaves and the little sunlight leaking in, gradually blurring his vision.
In the main hall of the palace, the emperor and Concubine Lan sat side by side, and on the table was a delicious meal delivered by Yipinxiang. Taking a sip of wine, the emperor chatted with Mu Ruqing Jiang Xinyue with some interest about the performance of the candidates in the palace examination room today, and the king of England was also by his side, not saying a word and just caring about eating.
Suddenly, I saw a general wearing silver armor and a sword on his waist quickly entered the main hall, and before he had time to ask for peace, he knelt down straight and said: "Your Majesty, urgent report, there are two men dressed as chivalrous men at the palace gate who broke into the palace gate privately, with strong martial arts, and injured several Praetorian Guards, saying that the master is in distress in the palace and wants to see Your Majesty immediately!" ”
"What? Who dares to be so bold, just think that the palace is his folk vegetable market! Come and leave as you want, and kill me immediately! The emperor was furious when he heard this, and slapped the silver chopsticks in his hand on the table with a "snap".
Lan Guifei immediately stroked his back for him to calm his anger, and the others were also surprised. Not to mention weekdays, today is a big day for the palace election, and breaking into the palace gate is simply a slap in the face of the royal family, who is so ignorant.
King Lu Gui frowned, but he clearly heard that it was two men, and he also claimed that his master was in trouble in the palace, isn't it... He thought of a possibility, and stopped in a panic for half a beat, and immediately asked, "Wait!" What is the shape and appearance of those two men, and do you say who their masters are? ”
"I didn't see it clearly with my face covered, I only knew that they were all burly practitioners, and one of them was holding a short knife as a weapon, as for who their master was, I didn't have time to ask, and I came to report it immediately after the accident." The Janissary Commander bowed his head in reply.
"Go, unload the swords of those two men, and bring them to the palace at once, if there is any delay, this king will not bypass you!" The king of England was rarely angry, he got up and staggered suddenly, and fell to the ground without even holding the wine glass in his hand, urging anxiously, eager to take a look at it himself. It's just that he knows that things can't be delayed, if he really forces those two people to break into the palace to save people, how serious should the matter be!
"King Ying, what's going on, do you know the details of the people who broke into the palace outside?" When the emperor saw the reaction of the King of England, he understood that he knew the inside story, and since he was a person known to the King of England, there would be no danger of killing the king, so the slightest worry in his heart was gone, but there was still some anger.
Lu Gui knelt down straight, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please believe me once, as soon as I heard that these two people broke into the palace gate privately, I immediately thought of a possibility. Some time ago, because I was worried about the safety of Mianmian, Princess Zhuen and I respectively assigned a guard to her, personal protection will not leave an inch, today Mianmian is also in the palace, the two guards are naturally waiting at the palace gate, if it is they who have just broken into the palace gate, then the danger is not Mianmian? ”
Mu Ruqing and Jiang Xinyue were originally just surprised by such a thing, but when they heard that it might be related to Ruan Mianmian, they couldn't sit still, with an anxious and uneasy look on their faces, Jiang Xinyue's voice trembled: "Lord Wang, you said that it was Mianmian's guards who broke the door, but just now we finished eating with Mianmian in the square, and how could people outside the palace know the situation in the palace, will they... Could it be that we are thinking wrong? ”
"But now that Mianmian is not in front of us after all, how can I not think about it, as for knowing Mianmian's safety, it was Zhu En who gave Mianmian the two messenger gems she brought from Mobei, one was beaten into a gold collar and hung on Mianmian's neck, we told her not to show it easily, and the other piece was in the hands of one of the guards named Hayabusa, as long as one piece was broken, the other piece would be broken immediately, so that when Mianmian encountered danger, as long as he smashed the gem, the guards could immediately reach it."
The more Lu Gui spoke, the more he felt that something had happened to Ruan Mianmian, and he clenched his fists and wanted to go to her now, but the palace was so big, he could only ask the emperor to order a search, otherwise even if he found it, he would be too late.
It didn't take long for the commander of the forbidden army to bring those two people in, the king turned his head suddenly, three pairs of anxious eyes facing each other, he only felt a "buzz" in his head, the person who broke into the palace gate was the Falcon You and Wuyi who protected Ruan Mianmian, Jiang Xinyue and Mu Ruqing had also seen these two, and they understood for a while that I was afraid that what the King of England said was true, Jiang Xinyue was in a hurry, and a trace of blood directly leaked out of the corner of her mouth.
Before he had time to think about it, the King immediately said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Hayabusa and none of them are protecting Mianmian, Mianmian is in danger!" ”
The emperor was also shocked, and before they could speak, he yelled at the commander of the Praetorian Guard: "Go! Dispatch all the soldiers and the Praetorian Guards to search the palace inch by inch until you find the Lord of Ruliang! There are still many relatives and candidates in the square, do not alarm for the time being, send people to fence the square, and the palace gate is also blocked and no one is allowed to go out, the sooner the better! ”
The commander of the Praetorian Guard knew that the matter was big, and the county lord's distress was an extremely serious matter, and if one of them was not rescued, he would lose his head, so he immediately turned around and went out to dispatch the Praetorian Guard and began to investigate.
"Focus on the section of the road where the square pours the imperial dining room, Mianmian said that he would go to the imperial dining room!" Mu Ruqing shouted at the back of the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and he didn't care about the etiquette and demeanor in front of the emperor.
