Chapter 128: A Narrow Encounter

After eating, Ruan Mianmian burped with satisfaction, let Jiang Xinyue wipe the oil from the corner of her mouth for her, and smiled with satisfaction as she touched her stomach, there are delicious things, and nothing to worry about is nothing.

"Okay, you can rest for a while, let's go to the imperial dining room to have a look, Uncle Hua and Wang Xun should have started steaming desserts, and I will ask you a bowl to eat when the time comes." Jiang Xinyue patted her on the shoulder.

"That's a good idea." Ruan Mianmian's pear vortex was deeper, and she looked up at Jiang Xinyue who was standing beside her, she was still beautiful and sassy.

"Jingshu County Lord Wan An, the emperor summoned you and Boss Mu, please go to the main hall immediately to meet you."

Jiang Xinyue and Ruan Mianmian turned around together, and saw a little eunuch bending down respectfully, not the little virtue commonly used in front of the emperor, but it was indeed from the main hall, so Jiang Xinyue looked at Ruan Mianmian and seemed to ask if she could go to the imperial dining room alone.

"I can do it, just go and see it myself later, sister, you and Brother Mu go quickly, don't let the royal brother wait for a long time." Ruan Mianmian raised her head and smiled, gently pushed her to Mu Ruqing's side, and waved her hand with a smile.

"Okay, then let's go first, you are good." After Jiang Xinyue finished this sentence, she took Mu Ruqing's hand, and the two of them followed the little eunuch to the main hall.

Seeing them leaving, Ruan Mianmian picked up the cup and drank two sips of tea, and looked at Fang Yan and didn't know when he slipped away, so he said, "Hold the lamp, you can accompany me to the imperial dining room to have a look." ”

Holding the lamp naturally, he came over to help Ruan Mianmian get up, and the master and servant slowly went down the steps on the side of the stand and walked in the direction of the imperial dining room.

The position of Jin Mansion in the stands is just not far from the steps, Jin Jiaoyang, who had just finished drinking the medicine, rubbed his temples, and when he raised his eyes, he just saw Ruan Mianmian leaving with the palace maid, and he was thinking about following up to ask about the morning, but before his legs were opened, the voice of a woman talking came from behind him.

"Mrs. Jin, Mr. Jin, are you feeling okay today?" Fangyan approached elegantly, bringing a touch of a suitable fragrance from afar, those who know the inside story can smell it, this is the spice "dream" that Princess Zhuen of Mobei gave to Princess Fangyan at the banquet last year, it smells like a dream, and a total of a little, Fangyan has always cherished it, and now she brings it to see Jin Gongzi and Mrs. Jin, which shows her importance to the Jin family.

"Princess Wan'an." Jin Jiaoyang couldn't leave, so he had to turn around and salute Mrs. Jin, with no expression on his face, but he was absent-minded.

Fang Yanmei smiled, immediately flattened them, sat down briskly and exchanged a few words with Mrs. Jin, turned his head and asked Jin Jiaoyang: "Mr. Jin, are you not feeling well during the morning exam?" ”

"It's just that the wind chill hasn't healed, it's not a big deal, thank you for the ginger soup from the princess." Jin Jiaoyang lowered her head slightly, obviously with a look of resistance, but looking at Fang Yan's side, she was sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a different kind of handsome and handsome, she stared at Jin Jiaoyang without blinking, as if the stars were about to emerge from her eyes.

Ruan Mianmian walked all the way out of the square to the path at the edge of the Imperial Garden, where shrubs were planted with a height of one person, and the breeze was gusting, blocking the sun, which was exceptionally cool and comfortable. Holding a small fan lightly behind him, Ruan Mianmian was attracted by an early-blooming peony on the side of the road, and carefully reached over his hand to touch it, but before he touched the petals, he saw that there seemed to be a pink cloth under the flowers covered by lush branches and leaves.

Slightly brushing aside a few horizontal flower branches, Ruan Mianmian took a step back suddenly, a layer of sweat broke out all over his body, his two eyes were round and unblinking, his chest rose and fell violently, and even his breathing and heartbeat stagnated for a moment. It's not that Ruan Mianmian is making a fuss, it's really that the things hidden under the flowers are too scary, a little palace maid in pink with gray skin and closed eyes and motionless.

Due to the light rain for several days, the soil on the ground was damp and soft and full of moisture, and the hem of this palace maid's skirt was smeared with a lot of mud, it seemed that she had struggled violently, Ruan Mianmian endured the discomfort of turning the river and the sea in her stomach, and looked at her sleeves fixedly, the soil was not dry and hard, and even soft and collapsed on the sleeves with water stains, what can this mean?

It can only be said that there are still traces of people moving here just now! Even the murderer is likely to be here!

Ruan Mianmian didn't dare to delay any longer, although this place is not remote, but no one came over easily, not to mention that the palace test was held today, all the palace maids and eunuchs were busy over there, even if the imperial dining room sent meals, it was on the main road, she just took this road because she was greedy for coolness, who knew that she actually ran into this kind of thing.

Biting his lip to keep himself awake, Ruan Mianmian turned around abruptly and was about to pull up the Zhanzhan and leave here to find the emperor and the queen mother, but when he turned around, he saw the Zhanzhan lying on the ground with a painful face, his hand still open to protect this side, he was already unconscious, but what was close was a black veil and a man wearing a eunuch uniform.

After Ruan Mianmian stood up, the man and Ruan Mianmian only saw the gap of almost half an arm, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, but their eyebrows were a little gray, and their hair was also mixed with snow-white silver threads.

In the panic, Ruan Mianmian could only shake his body to the side suddenly, his brain quickly thought about the probability that he could escape if he escaped directly, who knew that the luxurious county lord uniform and exquisite embroidered shoes on weekdays had become a burden at this time, and he couldn't make a big move at all, and after a slight shake, his ankle twisted fiercely, and the painful Ruan Mianmian frowned, and his eyes were full of tears.

But now is not the time to be weak at all, and there can be too much hesitation and concern before the crisis of life and death, so Ruan Mianmian bent down and took off the embroidered shoes on his feet, and threw them with all his strength at the moment when he was stunned because he suddenly took off his shoes, and his arms were all in pain because of the residual strength, one of the embroidered shoes was thrown to the ground due to insufficient strength, and the other was in the middle of the forehead of the masked eunuch.

The sole of the shoe is made of white jade, it is not heavy, but it is extremely hard, even if Ruan Mianmian does not have much strength, but after smashing it on the forehead of the masked man, it is immediately red and swollen with a triangular red mark, and the eunuch's body is also leaning back, covering the gap on his forehead with his hand Ruan Mianmian has already run a few steps barefoot.

Seeing that it was possible to escape, Ruan Mianmian didn't look at the situation behind him, and ran out on the path without looking back, where he could already see a corner of the imperial dining room building, if he could escape smoothly, he would definitely be able to call the guards to come and save the hand.

Zhuzhan fainted on the ground and his life and death are unknown, but Ruan Mianmian is not the kind of person who is emotionally and blindly righteous, and he can save his life to have a chance to save her.

Thinking like this, Ruan Mianmian ran even harder, she felt a sharp pain in the soles of her feet, it was the gravel that cut the soles of her feet, but she couldn't stop, she couldn't even look back at the situation behind her, the worry of her life was current, and small injuries were not worth paying attention to.

Seeing that she was about to reach a fork in the road, bypassing these trees to get to the main road, Ruan Mianmian, who had been running away with all her strength, suddenly felt that her body was stagnant, and the whole person suddenly lost her center of gravity, blocking her was a burly maid with a body like a hill, Ruan Mianmian took two steps back, and the masked man followed closely behind, holding his fists two or three meters behind her with a fierce look, staring at her.

The woman in front of her looked like she was in her thirties, bloated and strong, and she was not wearing the clothes of a palace maid, but like the clothes of a maid in a noble family, but Ruan Mianmian was frightened and bumped again, and she was dizzy and didn't have time to think about who it was, and now the situation was extremely unfavorable for her, and it was impossible to escape alone, she needed to think of a way to save herself and talk about anything else.

"Wait a minute, what do you want, everything I saw just now will be tight-lipped, we can cooperate, you want money? Or do you want me to find a chance to get you out of the palace? You know my identity, I am the lord of Ruliang, I can do anything. Ruan Mianmian tried her best to keep herself calm, turned sideways and did not give her back to the masked man, and at the same time kept her expression calm, making a negotiation attitude.

The two people, one in front and one behind, were like two bronze statues, motionless and only looking at him, spreading their hands to prevent her from having a chance to escape, but they both kept their mouths closed and didn't say a word. All of a sudden, the whole path could only hear the rhythm of the leaves and the chirping of insects and birds, and it was such a quiet and peaceful sound, but such a thrilling thing happened.

"I want to see your master and let her come out." Ruan Mianmian saw that the two of them were unmoved, and knew that there were still people behind them to command, and no matter how much she said to the marionette, it was better to say a word to the main master, she really didn't have to bother much, she also wanted to see who dared to kill people in the palace, and dared to intercept and kill the queen mother's favored county lord on the spot.

The two of them paused, and there was no reaction at all, and Ruan Mianmian, who was waiting, was so anxious that he couldn't show it, so he could only pretend to be calm, praying in his heart that someone would come over and see that the mastermind behind the manipulation behind him had not appeared for a long time, and now he could really only get out by external force?

Just when Ruan Mianmian was still calming down with the pain in the center of her feet, the sound of Suo Suo came from the bushes opposite her, and then a corner of a gorgeous robe was poked out, and a beautiful middle-aged woman slowly walked out of the vines.

"Mrs. Squire?!" Ruan Mianmian never expected that Mrs. Shilang would appear here unhurriedly. If it breaks other people's things, there is still room for three points to turn around, but Mrs. Shilang is different, she is merciful and ruthless, even her own family can be cruel and assassinated, not to mention Ruan Mianmian, a person who has never been waiting to see her.

Mrs. Shilang stood firm on the path, first glanced at the stones on the ground that were red with the blood of Ruan Mianmian's feet, and said lightly: "What a coincidence." ”
