Chapter 62: Exploring the Rockery
Su Liruo coughed lightly twice, "At this time, the jewelry is still in my family's warehouse, and I have to bother the prince to order someone to pick it up." β
"There is no benefit, why should this king promise Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
After getting along with Su Liruo for a long time, Shangguan Jin felt that he was becoming more and more concerned about things outside his body, such as money.
Su Liruo noticed the playfulness in Shangguan Jin's eyes, and she immediately spoke, "It's a big deal that I'll lose some, can I give you a few pieces of jewelry for free?" β
At this time, Su Liruo could murmur in her heart, she has no enmity with silver, and the things rewarded by the emperor, even if it is only one piece of jewelry, are worth a lot, right?
"Then thank Your Highness the Princess for negotiating this good deal with me." Shangguan Jin spoke with a little more joking politeness.
"The prince is polite, but can you stop screaming at a princess? Sounds weird. Su Liruo twisted his shoulders and frowned.
Shangguan Jin heard Su Liruo say this, and he quickly dodged behind Su Liruo.
He leaned down and whispered a sentence in Su Liruo's ear, "Then I don't know what Miss Su wants me to call me?" Li Ruo? Xiao Ruo? Alley? β
Su Liruo was originally relaxed for a while, but suddenly felt a burst of heat coming from her ears, she shivered all over, and the roots of her ears were also a little red.
"What is this? Isn't it too numb? Whatever you call it, I'm going to make this deal with you today anyway. Su Liruo was a little nervous, she suddenly got up and almost hit Shangguan Jin's chin, but fortunately, Shangguan Jin reacted quickly, he took a step back, just dodging.
That night, Shangguan Jin prepared a silver ticket for Su Liruo according to the princess etiquette system, and when Su Liruo left Duanwang's mansion, he received a large amount of silver tickets from Shangguan Jin, all of which were counted in gold, about 100,000 taels of gold.
The money has already arrived, Su Li Ruocai no matter what method Shangguan Jin used to carry the ten boxes of gold, silver and jewelry out of Su Mansion, Shangguan Jin's work efficiency, she is very satisfied.
Back in the room at night, Su Liruo took out the IOU he found from Shangguan Jin's clothes.
She picked up the place where she had drawn and sniffed it, then smiled happily, "It smells of rouge, this one should be real." β
Su Liruo couldn't find the ink clay that day, so she took the rouge on the table instead, and at this time it became a way to distinguish the real from the fake, and Su Liruo took the one with her own hands
The IOU was destroyed, and then I was relieved to sleep.
Early the next morning, Su Liruo got up and heard that Su Huaiyuan and the Lu family had gone to the palace, and at the dinner table, the slave and maid spoke softly, "The master said that more things are better than less things, and I specially let you stay in the mansion." β
Su Liruo nodded, Su Huaiyuan was too naΓ―ve, she was the party concerned, I was afraid that someone would announce her into the palace in a while.
After breakfast, Su Liruo walked in the garden, remembering Shangguan Jin's reminder, Su Liruo unconsciously went around to the rockery.
There was a big stone next to the rockery, and she stomped three times at the open space next to the rockery, only to see a stone from the rockery move to the side.
The reason why I chose to come over now is because it is daytime, so that the guards will relax their vigilance, and besides, Su Huaiyuan and the Lu family are not in the mansion at this time, and no one will find out about her actions.
Su Liruo walked in cautiously, and the door of the rockery was then closed, and she looked inside the rockery, there was only one passage, which was not as complicated as Shangguan Jin said.
She cautiously walked forward, only to kick something, and then heard only a rumbling sound.
Originally, Su Liruo didn't care, but the rumbling sound was getting louder and louder, and it seemed to be approaching her, Su Liruo turned her head and found a huge stone rolling towards her, and she secretly said in her heart.
Su Liruo ran forward desperately, because of the speed of running, she knocked over a lamp on the wall, and then several cold arrows shot at her, and she quickly turned around and dodged the arrows shot at her.
The boulder behind her was still rolling towards her, Su Liruo continued to run forward, and when she saw a hole on the left-hand side, she jumped into it without any hesitation.
It's just that as soon as Su Liruo jumped in, she only felt that her feet were in the air, and then she lost her stability and fell into a space.
The surroundings were dark and black, and nothing could be seen, Su Liruo stood up and wanted to go up from this hole.
"My mom, I fell to my aunt and died." Su Liruo rubbed her waist and stood up, thinking that the boulder had rolled away, she looked at the hole above her head and was a little at a loss.
In such a deep place, she can't work lightly, how can she get out now?
Before she could think about the result, she felt a soft and glutinous thing wrapped around her ankle.
Su Liruo looked down and saw one
A long purple serpent spat out a letter, as if trying to attack her, "Ah! I won't be so unlucky, I'm most afraid of snakes. β
After exclaiming, Su Liruo subconsciously grabbed the snake's head and ripped the snake away, and then took out a multi-functional dagger and pressed the ruby.
The dart was inserted into the stone wall above the cave entrance at once, and then Su Liruo turned the ruby button again, only to see the silver wire shrink, and Su Liruo was taken out of the cave.
"You're still reliable." Su Liruo smiled, she pulled out her dagger and was ready to fight at any time, and every step she took next, she walked cautiously, for fear of triggering some mechanism again.
Walking slowly inside, Su Liruo only felt that the further she went, the lower the height of the cave entrance became, until finally, she had to hunch her waist to enter.
Su Liruo walked and walked into a dead end, she reached out and knocked on the stone walls around her, feeling that there must be a mechanism here.
After some exploration, Su Liruo didn't find any mechanism, remembering the method of stomping his feet at the entrance of the rockery, Su Liruo raised his feet and tried it, but he didn't expect the stone gate to open instantly.
As soon as he entered the stone gate, Su Liruo heard a noisy sound.
"Call you kid hard-mouthed, say it quickly! Who sent you to stop the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion? What is the purpose of blending into the Prime Minister's Mansion with such great painstaking efforts? "I heard the whip snap twice on one man.
Su Liruo walked in and took a look, her pupils shrank suddenly, it was Su Quanxi who was tied to the wooden frame, seeing this, Su Liruo wanted to step forward to stop it, but she just took half a step and shrank back.
"No one instructed me, I said it, it was your coachman who crushed my dog, and it doesn't matter if you don't accompany my dog, and now you treat me like this, and when I go out, Su Fu will lose face." Su Quanxi stared at the torturer unconvinced, and the stubbornness between his eyebrows and eyes was very similar to Su Liruo.
"Hahaha, do you really think there's another day to go out? Call you dishonest. The interrogator and the people around him laughed loudly, and as he spoke, he raised his whip and whipped it on Su Quanxi.
Su Quanxi gritted his teeth, his brows were furrowed tightly, the sweat on his forehead rolled down his cheeks to his chest, and the sweat dripped on the wound, Su Quanxi only felt unbearable pain, but he was stubborn and silent.
Seeing Su Quanxi, whose skin had been peeled on the wooden shelf, Su Liruo couldn't bear it in her heart, tonight, she must save Su Quanxi out. 2k reading web
