Chapter 104: The Feast of Flowers
Just when Shen Ruogu misunderstood Qin Lingjue's empathy, Qin Lingjue, who hadn't contacted her for many days, suddenly sent her an invitation to enter the palace to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
Looking at this invitation, Shen Ruogu frowned, "What does he mean by this?" ”
I deliberately hung her for many days, and now she suddenly came out like this, what kind of idea is she playing?
However, what she didn't know was that Qin Ling was not deliberately drying her, but was just entangled by Jiang Ruoxue, and invited her to the Hundred Flowers Banquet just to meet her.
Although he couldn't figure out Qin Lingjue's plan, it didn't prevent Shen Ruogu from refusing his invitation, "Nanyi, you went and pushed it for me." ”
"Miss, this ......"
Gu Nanyi was a little puzzled, didn't the two of them have a posture of wanting to get back together before? Why did it suddenly fall to freezing again?
Seeing Gu Nanyi's refusal to move, Shen Ruogu's face sank, "Why don't you go quickly?" ”
"Yes, miss."
Seeing that Shen Ruogu was really going to be angry, Gu Nanyi sighed helplessly, and had no choice but to take the invitation and return it to Rong Xiao.
"I'm sorry, my young lady has something to do in three days, and it is inconvenient to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, so please tell the emperor."
Hearing this, Rong Xiao accepted the invitation with some surprise, he remembered that no one had been looking for Miss Shen recently, what could she do in three days?
Although he wondered in his heart, Rong Xiao still said sincerely: "Don't worry, the girl in Nanyi, I will convey it to the emperor." ”
With that, Rong Xiao left here and rushed to the palace.
After hearing Rong Xiao say that Shen Ruogu couldn't come because of something, Qin Lingjue frowned, but he didn't think much about it, "Well, since she has something, you don't have to bother her anymore." ”
Although he regretted a little in his heart that he couldn't see Shen Ruogu this time, after all, Jiang Ruoxue had been pestering him these days, which really made him unable to pull away, and he hadn't seen her for half a month now.
But Shen Ruogu didn't know that Qin Ling absolutely missed her, and she was still sulking in her heart, or jealous, but she resolutely refused to admit this.
Just when Shen Ruogu was entangled, someone sent her an invitation to the Hundred Flowers Banquet at this time, but this time the person who invited her was ...... Jiang Ruoxue!
"Miss, are you alright?"
Although Shen Ruogu's expression looked no different from usual, Gu Nanyi, who had always been familiar with her own young lady, knew that her young lady was angry.
"It's okay, since people are sincerely invited, how can I not go?"
Shen Ruogu, who originally didn't plan to go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet, suddenly changed his mind at this time.
However, Gu Nanyi was not happy, because she always felt that her young lady was probably not going to enjoy the flowers, but to tear up with Jiang Ruoxue.
I hope that the emperor will be able to suppress them at that time, Gu Nanyi prayed in his heart.
At the same time, in the palace, Jiang Ruoxue asked the eunuch she sent to send an invitation to Shen Ruogu, "How is it?" Is Shen Ruogu going to participate? ”
"Back to Niangniang, Miss Shen agreed."
Hearing this, Jiang Ruoxue was immediately extremely satisfied, and felt that her efforts these days had not been in vain, very good, Shen Ruogu, this time the Hundred Flowers Banquet Palace will definitely make you unforgettable for life!
Time passed quickly, and when it was time for the Hundred Flowers Banquet to be held, Shen Ruogu didn't plan to take Gu Nanyi to the banquet this time, because judging from her understanding of Jiang Ruoxue, she would probably attack her at this Hundred Flowers Banquet, and bringing Gu Nanyi would only implicate her.
It's just that what Shen Ruogu didn't expect was that Jiang Ruoxue hadn't made a move on her yet, and someone couldn't wait to attack her on her way to the palace.
Because Jiang Ruoxue strictly forbade all inns in the capital to be open to her, Shen Ruogu went to the outskirts of the city to find a house to live in order to solve the accommodation problem, so it was a little remote from the city.
Coupled with the fact that it is somewhat desolate, there are very few people coming and going, and there are almost no others except the aborigines.
Perhaps it was because of this that someone chose to assassinate her in this place.
Looking at the assassin who stopped in front of him with a black cloth covering his face and wearing a black night suit, Shen Ruogu asked in some surprise, "Who are you?" Who sent you? ”
This time she intuitively felt that it was not someone sent by Qin Lingxiao, after all, that guy knew her strength very well, every time he sent someone to assassinate her, he directly sent a large number of her, and there had never been a situation where only one person was sent to assassinate her.
However, in the face of Shen Ruogu's question, the assassin did not answer, and without saying a word, he directly stabbed him with a sword.
Seeing this, Shen Ruogu shook her head, knowing that it was impossible to talk about it at the moment, but she could capture him alive after defeating him and ask the questions she wanted to know.
However, after the fight, Shen Ruogu found that this assassin's martial arts path was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
It's just that Shen Ruogu didn't come up with anything after thinking about it for a long time, but fortunately he didn't bother to think about it anymore, and he would know when he captured this assassin.
After fighting the assassin for a while, Shen Ruogu discovered his flaw and captured him in one fell swoop.
However, what she didn't expect was that the other party directly chose to crush the poison in his teeth and wanted to commit suicide, but fortunately, Shen Ruogu found out in time to stop him.
Seeing this, Shen Ruogu frowned, took off the face towel opposite, but was taken aback when he saw the other party's face clearly, "Steward Liu? How are you? ”
However, at this time, "Steward Liu" took advantage of the moment when she lost her mind to attack her, so that Shen Ruogu, who was careless for a while, was directly injured by a sword in her right arm, if she hadn't dodged quickly, I am afraid that the sword would have stabbed her heart.
"Steward Liu, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Ruogu was a little shocked, but after the shock, she immediately noticed that Steward Liu's current state was very wrong, looking at her as if she was looking at a stranger, and her eyes did not fluctuate, like a puppet man who had no soul and was manipulated.
However, this puppeteer had a strong killing intent towards Shen Ruogu, and if she didn't succeed in one blow, she immediately struck again, and Shen Ruogu was injured just now, which caused her combat power to drop greatly, and she couldn't support it after a while.
Seeing that she was about to die under Steward Liu's sword, at a critical moment, Rong Xiao suddenly appeared and saved Shen Ruogu from Steward Liu's sword.
With Rong Xiao here, Steward Liu could no longer kill Shen Ruogu, especially Rong Xiao's martial arts were still far above him, so after he found out that something could not be done, he immediately left the battlefield without hesitation.
Rong Xiao wanted to continue the pursuit, but he was afraid of the injured Shen Ruogu, so he pressed down.
"Miss Shen, I'm offended."
Shen Ruogu's injury was not light, although she temporarily stopped the bleeding with the technique of acupoints, but she still needed to bandage it.
It's just that this place is too far away from the medical hall, and in order to be able to hurry as soon as possible, Rong Xiao can only hold her to perform light skills.
