Chapter 25: Tan Xiangxue's Calculations
Luo Wushuang took Xiaozhu out of Luofu together, today she was going to Chen Yuxi's appointment, Xiaolan stayed in the mansion because she had to recuperate from her injuries, and the two got into the carriage and drove out of the city.
When he arrived at the pavilion outside the city, Luo Wushuang got out of the carriage and saw Chen Yuxi from a distance, in addition to Chen Yuxi, there was also a woman, Tan Xiangxue.
"Wushuang, come on, this pastry with fragrant snow belt." Chen Yuxi called happily.
Luo Wushuang stepped forward and sat down, and saw Tan Xiangxue on the other side smiling at her, and Wushuang nodded at her.
"I thought you were alone?" Luo Wushuang said with a smile.
"Actually, I proposed it, because I don't know if Wushuang is free, so let Yu Xi invite you on my behalf."
"Well, it won't be so much trouble next time."
"Well, Xiangxue has to come to Luofu to see Wushuang."
Luo Wushuang didn't answer, Tan Xiangxue didn't care anymore, and the three of them were silent.
Chen Yuxi ate two pastries, saw that the atmosphere of the two was calm, and said: "I know there are chrysanthemums there, let's go pick them together, we can make tea." β
"Well, let's go then." Luo Wushuang smiled evilly, and walked towards the chrysanthemum with Chen Yuxi.
Wushuang looked back at Tan Xiangxue behind her, and saw that her face was slightly stiff, a lady like Tan Xiangxue asked her to do this kind of thing, and it was strange that she had no idea with her arrogant temperament.
Tan Xiangxue is very reluctant to do what this person does, and she doesn't want to do such things that damage her identity. But it was not good to have a seizure, so he stepped forward.
The two had already stepped into the chrysanthemum bush, Tan Xiangxue followed, saw a pearl hairpin on the ground, and looked at it to see that it should have fallen from Chen Yuxi's head, and there was a set on her head, so she quietly put it away and put it away.
Xu is not enough tacit understanding between the three of them, and the fun is not enough to enjoy, and the few people go back after a while.
When Luo Wushuang returned to the mansion, he heard Luo Wuchen calling him.
"Wushuang."
"Brother, what's the matter?"
"Well, the Xingyue Kingdom has come with envoys and relatives, and tomorrow the ladies of the major mansions will also enter the palace, so I am here to tell you, and I will be prepared tomorrow."
"Well, Heqin, I'm going too."
"Silly sister, you are still the fiancΓ©e of the fifth prince, why can't you go."
"Uh-huh."
When Wushuang returned to the room, he saw Nangong Xingchen, and Nangong Xingchen also saw Luo Wushuang come back.
"Where to go, for so long?"
"I went to the outside of the city with Chen Yuxi to pick some chrysanthemums and came back to make tea." Luo Wushuang opened the wrapped flower hub bag. The chrysanthemum is fragrant and fragrant.
"Alone?"
"And Tan Xiangxue."
"Hmm."
Luo Wushuang handed the flower a small bamboo and asked her to clean it. Wushuang walked towards Nangong Xingchen, and when he came to his side, he sat on his lap, playing with his hair on both sides.
"I'm going to enter the palace tomorrow, and the emperor will be there this time. It seems to be taken seriously. β
"Well, this time it's just a cutscene, and I have no light with you, so I can rest assured."
"Uh-huh."
"Will you go back after dinner later?" Luo Wushuang said with concern.
"Well, I'll be with you for a while."
"Okay."
Day 2.
Luo Wushuang prepared everything and was about to go out, but as soon as he stepped to the door of the boudoir, he was shot in by a wind-like feather.
An envelope was nailed into the wall.
"Who?" Xiaozhu was shocked, and probably stepped forward to tear open the letter. Hand the letter to Luo Wushuang.
opened the letter, and there was a hairpin inside, Luo Wushuang read the letter, his face changed slightly, and the bloody storm was about to come under the calm.
"You set off first, and wait for me at the gate of the palace. I still have something to go out. β
"But Miss, this palace will not be delayed, you should arrive earlier."
"En," Luo Wushuang left Luofu after saying that, and drove a horse towards the outside of the city.
This pearl hairpin is what she gave to Chen Yuxi, and the things around her can be obtained except for the maids around her, that is, the person who is close to her, will it be Tan Xiangxue. Thinking of this, Luo Wushuang whipped his horse and went faster towards the outside of the city.
"Stompe."
Soon Luo Wushuang arrived at the address mentioned in the letter, in front of him was a broken thatched house, the door was wide open, and Wushuang saw a woman in a long green dress in the room with her head covered, unable to see her face, her hands and feet tied and leaning against the table, no movement.
Luo Wushuang looked around, there was no one, but her intuition told her that there was an ambush. She walked in and closed the door. Seeing the two tables by the door, she rolled up her whip and threw it in the middle of the road.
Two tables fell to the ground, and suddenly dust rose and the roof collapsed, and a net was closed. Cover the two tables.
If Luo Wushuang had just walked over, then it must have been her who was trapped in the net.
Wushuang kicked open the door and ran out, she didn't want to be a rabbit in prison, not long after she came out, a man in black came out of the broken house holding a knife on the neck of "Chen Yuxi".
"Don't act rashly, otherwise," the man in black tightened the knife against Chen Yuxi's neck, and a trace of blood spilled from the side of the knife.
Wushuang didn't move, looking at the man in black in front of him, the killer in the shadows also appeared around Luo Wushuang and waited for an opportunity.
"What do you want?" Luo Wushuang said coldly.
"You put down your weapons and cooperate with us honestly."
"Cooperate, cooperate with being caught by you, wishful thinking."
After finishing speaking, a flying knife hit the shoulder of the man in black in front of him, and when the man in black was in pain, Luo Wushuang stepped forward and kicked the man in black away, stepped forward to grab Chen Yuxi, and solved several other men in black who stepped forward, Luo Wushuang pulled Chen Yuxi to a safer place to help her untie the rope.
The "Chen Yuxi" who had his head over felt Luo Wushuang's actions and showed a strange smile, although no one could see the smile under the black cloth, and soon the rope was untied.
Luo Wushuang was about to pull out the black-covered turban, when "Chen Yuxi" took out a telescopic dagger from his waist, and the cold light rose and hit his face. Luo Wushuang naturally noticed it, his figure flashed, and he stepped back, and the man in black behind Wushuang took the opportunity to raise his knife and slash towards Luo Wushuang. Luo Wushuang bent down to dodge a blow, and his hand touched his calf and took out two flying knives and shot at the two of them.
"Chen Yuxi" has already opened the hood to reveal his true face, that is Tan Xiangxue's maidservant Tianxiang, a master of perfumery, so he was favored by Tan Xiangxue and named Tianxiang, Luo Wushuang has never seen her, but when he was in close contact just now, he smelled the familiar smell on this person's body, and that smell was on Tan Xiangxue of the previous palace meeting, because the fragrance was very special, Luo Wushuang remembered it.
Tianxiang was amazed by Luo Wushuang's keenness, and after being surprised, she said angrily: "Don't hurry up and arrest her." β
The black-clothed people looked at each other, and they were about to step forward in a hurry, but they could only see the back of Luo Wushuang getting on the horse and leaving. I can't catch up anymore.
"Waste."
Luo Wushuang rode a carriage and galloped into the city.
Xiaozhu looked nervously at the direction of the time, and many people appeared on the empty road at this time, and stomped their feet anxiously.
"Why hasn't Miss come yet?" She'd been waiting for almost an hour.
"Don't keep walking around, aren't you tired, you're about to be dizzy." The man's magnetic voice rang out in his ears.
Xiaozhu looked at the thundercloud that appeared next to the carriage, his eyes lit up, and he walked quickly in front of him.
"Shall we tell the prince, why hasn't the young lady come back for a long time?"
Lei Yun was about to speak, his eyes glanced at the man on the horse at the end of the street, and said slowly: "No need, the princess is already here." β
Xiaozhu was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, and looked back at where he had come from.
Luo Wushuang saw the two people and the carriage waiting for her from a distance, and after a while, she arrived in front of the two of them and quickly dismounted.
"I've been waiting for a long time, let's enter the palace quickly."
Yubi Xiaozhu followed Luo Wushuang into the carriage, and Lei Yun drove towards the palace gate. In the carriage, Xiaozhu began to comb Luo Wushuang's hair and dress up, because he was eager to save Chen Yuxi, he just tied his hair and went outside the city, and he needed to dress up at this time.
In the courtyard of the palace, many ladies were present, and many powerful ministers and guards were also present. A group of daughters were chatting, and a girl with a pink jacket and a long skirt looked anxious and absent-mindedly talking.
Tan Xiangxue pretended to be appeased: "Yuxi, don't worry too much, I believe that Wushuang will arrive soon." β
Chen Yuxi looked at the decent smile of the woman in front of him, and his heart settled slightly. There was no reply, and in an instant he looked at the entrance of the courtyard again.
Suddenly, a familiar face appeared in front of him, it was Luo Wushuang who had arrived.
Chen Yuxi got up excitedly and beckoned to Luo Wushuang, Luo Wushuang quickly saw Chen Yuxi in the distance, and Wushuang walked in her direction.
At this time, Tan Xiangxue saw Luo Wushuang's face stiffen slightly, and it was a little difficult to look, "Why is she so fast." I was a little shocked and couldn't believe that this plan had failed.
Luo Wushuang naturally saw the change in Tan Xiangxue's expression in his eyes, and sneered in his heart, this Tan Xiangxue Dao is quite calm, she is really a powerful actor, if she didn't know that the maid was arranged by her, I am afraid that even if I doubt it, I will not judge her whereabouts like this, after all, not everyone likes to use the greatest malice to guess others, which is very disdainful.
"Wushuang, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I thought you weren't coming, but I was in a hurry, and I was worried to death."
"I suddenly appeared, I'm afraid it will upset some people." Luo Wushuang's cold voice sounded, and he came to Chen Yuxi's side, moving Chen Yuxi and Tan Xiangxue away from each other.
Chen Yuxi was very sensitive to this change between the two of them, and looked at Luo Wushuang in confusion.
"Wushuang, what are these words, Yuxi and I are worried that something has happened to you?" Tan Xiangxue looked at Luo Wushuang with a hurt face.
"Well, don't say this kind of thing, and don't be afraid to say so many deceitful nonsense, be careful that day." Luo Wushuang scoffed. Pulled Chen Yuxi away and sat on the other side.
"Wushuang, what's wrong with you, you just said to Xiangxue her." Chen Yuxi looked at Luo Wushuang and asked with a frosty expression.
"Here you go, see when you dropped this, put it away." Luo Wushuang took out the hairpin.
Chen Yuxi took it and said in surprise: "Why, why are you here, I have asked the maid to look for a long time?" β
"Don't you want to know why I entered the palace so late? Just now someone took your hairpin and asked me to go outside the city to save you, I thought you were really kidnapped, only to find out that it was a trap after I arrived. That's why it was a lot late to enter the palace. β
"Ah, how could anyone do this, so were you hurt, did anything happen?" Chen Yuxi looked at Luo Wushuang's body anxiously and touched her arms.
"I'm fine, you may not know that the person behind the scenes this time was done by Tan Xiangxue, I see that you are so casual on weekdays, I am really worried about you."
"Thank you, Mushuang. Makes you worried, there are hello. Chen Yuxi was moved, took Luo Wushuang's arm, very intimate, she naturally believed what Luo Wushuang said, and Tan Xiangxue, a woman, may be what Wushuang said, although she does not have Luo Wushuang's delicate mind, but she is not stupid. Her hairpin was dropped a few days ago when the three of them were playing outside the city, and when she came back, she asked people to look for it, except for Tan Xiangxue's suspiciousness, if others found it, they would definitely return it.
"The emperor has arrived, and the queen has arrived." A long, resounding voice came. At the entrance of the court, there was a dragon robe and a majestic emperor and a queen dressed in flowers, behind which were several concubines and princes.
