Chapter 16: Escaped
"Sister Xun, don't blame them for this, look at how pitiful they are, An An is divided, but they are innocently implicated and injured." Baguio stiffened her voice and pleaded with Zhong Lixun, "Your Highness, let's spare them." ”
"Let Qiushui take them down first." Zhong Lixun listened to Mrs. Xun and Baguio arguing, and was a little impatient, "Let's disperse, go back and rest." ”
Zhong Lixun stood up, held Xiao Dai's hand, and walked out with doting pity: "Dai'er, this king will rest in Ning Dai Pavilion tonight."
"Yes, Dai'er will serve His Highness well." Xiao Dai smiled softly, squatted slightly and saluted, with a smug look on her face. Although she was accidentally framed by Ah Rong's slut, but because of the blessing of disguise, His Royal Highness seems to love her even more.
Zhong Lixun walked into the bedroom with Xiao Dai with a happy face, Ah Rong and Miao Lan were taken away by the little girl, Ah Rong finally chuckled, Zhong Lixun did not preside over any justice for her, she would not pray that he would be kind to her, he did this just to feel sorry for her Ai Ji.
The crowd dispersed, and it was late at night. Ah Rong and Miao Lan were untied, but they were imprisoned in a small room covered with dust and the walls and furnishings were covered with cobwebs that had not been cleaned for years.
Seeing that she and Ah Rong were imprisoned in the room where she was disposing of the subordinates, Miao Lan got up from the ground and asked Ah Rong anxiously: "Sister Ah Rong, is Your Highness going to dispose of us?"
Qiushui is very experienced and old, and has always listened to the will of His Royal Highness the Second Highness, and it is difficult to see it on weekdays. Mrs. Xun put Ah Rong to death, and His Royal Highness knew that Ah Rong was not a person who respected the king, so he did not move for the time being.
Qiushui walked in with a few maidservants, and said to the two of them, "I usually have pity on you, but now that such an incident has happened, the master is angry, and you are here for a while now, and you will endure hardships."
"Sister Qiushui, Sister Qiushui! Let us go! "Sister Qiushui who I saw last time was very friendly, but this time she was much more indifferent, Miao Lan rushed to the door, but the door had been locked from the outside.
"Miaolan, come and lie down for a while, it's been a day of tossing today." Ah Rong easily made the bed and prepared for bed. Miaolan looked at her in surprise and couldn't help asking, "Sister Ah Rong, didn't the murderer find out?" Why are you holding us up? Aren't you afraid? ”
"Silly sister, this is a big matter, even if we are allowed to go back, our life will not be easy, Sister Qiushui just wants to suppress this matter first." Ah Rong smiled as if he understood, took Miaolan's hand and continued, "Miaolan, we have to be more careful in the future, and in the future, our sisters will depend on each other and live well." ”
Ah Rong has figured it out, she is no longer alone, in order to protect herself and Miaolan, whether it is Zhong Lixun or Mrs. Xun, since she has obtained her innocence, she should not provoke again. That time, she dared to assassinate Zhong Lixun and was framed twice by Mrs. Xun, she made mistakes, A-Niang let her live well, she couldn't gamble on her life.
"Sure enough, it's still my sister Bing Xue who is smart, okay, listen to my sister." After hearing this, Miaolan nodded with big eyes, as if she had figured it out, and she leaned over flatteringly: "If it weren't for my sister, it is estimated that Miaolan's life would be gone today."
"Silly Miaolan, this matter has nothing to do with you in the first place," Ah Rong's heart warmed, "Go to sleep." ”
In late spring and early summer, the weather becomes hotter and drier, and the green trees in Qingryun Pavilion are lush and green leaves climb all over the branches, giving people a cool feeling. He Feng hurriedly followed behind Zhong Lixun, and His Royal Highness's black boots paused at the door of Qinglian Pavilion, which rarely came: "He Feng, you wait outside, I'll go to Qinglian Pavilion and sit down."
"Madame, ma'am! His Royal Highness has come down to Qinglian Pavilion, hurry up and greet it! Xilu was on an errand in front of the door, and when he looked up, he saw Zhong Lixun walking into Qinglian Pavilion in a black robe in civilian clothes, and hurriedly ran into the back room to call his master.
"Bi Lian has seen His Highness, His Highness has not been to Qinglian Pavilion for a long time." Bi Lian saluted shallowly, and Zhong Lixun only came twice in the month after being named Mrs. Zhong, which made Bi Lian think many times that he had noticed something.
"There are a lot of newcomers in the house, and His Royal Highness has snubbed you a little." Zhong Lixun smiled lightly, raised his hand and naturally walked into the room with Bi Lian in his arms, "But His Royal Highness still remembers the sound of Lian'er's piano, just like Lian'er himself. ”
Bi Lian was a little repulsed by Zhong Lixun's intimate and ambiguous embrace, her body stiffened slightly, and then forced herself to adapt, followed Zhong Lixun to step in, and said with a smile: "If Your Highness likes it, Lian'er can play another song now."
"Very good, His Highness is just interested." Zhong Lixun leaned on the soft couch, his eyes gentle as water.
"Yes, Xilu, you go and bring the lotus seed Pu'er tea to the palace to cool down the heat." Bi Lian hurriedly instructed Xi Lu, walked behind the bead curtain and took out a green Qiqin, looked at Zhong Lixun's evil and feminine eyes and walked over, the man in front of him was really naturally romantic, the prince held Baguio and her in his hands, no matter what, she had to please this second highness to do things for the prince.
"Okay, Xilu will go right away." Xilu smiled and withdrew, and went down to do business happily, His Highness was flattered that he could come to see Madame.
After playing a song, the sound of the piano is like mountains and flowing water, and the breath of clear rain is evocative, which reminds people of the wonderful sound under the drunken jade pavilion that day.
Zhong Lixun clapped his hands and applauded, and said with a soft smile: "Lian'er's piano skills, I'm afraid that even the best musicians in Lidu will be unattainable."
"Your Highness has praised it, if Your Highness likes it, you will often come to Qinglian Pavilion, and Lian'er will definitely play for His Highness with your heart," Bi Lian smiled humbly and walked over with the piano, Xilu brought lotus seed Pu'er tea and put it on the table, Bi Lian raised his hand lightly and explained, "Your Highness, this is a new tea cooked by Lian'er, boiled with lotus seeds and Pu'er tea from Liangzhou for half an hour, Your Highness tastes it." ”
"Okay, Lian'er's tea art must be good," Zhong Lixun nodded, stretched out his slender fingers of the white bone joint, brushed his sleeves and took a sip of the teacup, and praised, "Good tea, Lian'er's craftsmanship is really good." ”
"Your Highness, Bi Lian wants to ask His Highness about something," the prince instructed Bi Lian in the letter to pay attention to Ah Rong's news, and while Zhong Lixun was in a good mood, she pretended to have no intention of asking, "Your Highness, you know Lian'er's sister Baguio, although Ah Rong's sister was demoted to a slave, but her sister Baguio was friendly with her, and Lian'er dared to help Baguio intercede with Ah Rong, hoping that His Royal Highness could forgive Ah Rong." ”
Bi Lian noticed that Zhong Lixun frowned slightly when he heard Ah Rong's name, but then he resumed his feminine smile, so fast that Bi Lian could barely detect it, Zhong Lixun said lightly: "Since Lian'er pleaded, for the sake of Lian'er and Yao'er's face, I will spare the sinful maid."
"Come, Lian'er," Zhong Lixun happily called Bi Lian over, Bi Lian hesitated without a trace, but still walked over obediently, Zhong Lixun pressed her to his lap, "Lian'er, you are so beautiful." ”
The ambiguous heat sprayed on Bi Lian's white neck, Zhong Li Xun smiled evilly, and wanted to kiss Bi Lian's beautiful face. Bi Lian was frightened by Zhong Lixun's sudden flirtatious behavior, instinctively raised his hand and waved it towards Zhong Lixun's back, and then stopped when he was about to touch Zhong Lixun's shoulder, and then nervously and slowly withdrew.
Bi Lian rejected the torment in her heart, but Zhong Lixun let go of her hand, and raised her chin in a daze: "Lian'er, you will sleep today, His Royal Highness will return to the Mei Palace, and you will prepare well at night."
Bi Lian got up and saluted with a handkerchief, Zhong Lixun had already gotten up to leave Qinglian Pavilion, Xi Lu came over nervously and asked carefully: "Madam, you still don't want to do things for the prince, I think as long as Madam works hard, she will definitely be able to get His Highness's heart."
Bi Lian walked out of the back room and sat at the table, took out the letter that the prince gave her, it was impossible for her not to save Baguio, and her heart was dripping blood: "Xilu, there is no way out, the prince gave us the Soul Locking Pill before sending me and Baguio here."
Xilu exclaimed, "What!? Madame......"
Bi Lian burned the letter and slowly walked into the back room, she didn't know what Ah Rong's identity was, and the prince paid so much attention to her.
Under the tree outside Qinglian Pavilion, He Feng walked to Zhong Lixun's side with his sword, and Zhong Lixun asked lightly: "He Feng, have you found out that Bi Lian and the prince have sent a message privately?"
He Feng replied respectfully: "Yes, Mrs. Lian bought a guard named Fu Lun at the gate of the mansion, and the person who delivered the letter with the prince regularly delivered the message."
"Well, this time to watch Xun'er, Mei'er, Bi Lian and Baguio."
