Chapter Fifty-Eight: The One Who Can't Escape

"Auntie...... No...... Don't go ......"

The candle oil that burned all night was dripping with tears and piling up little by little on the candlestick, and the curtain was blown into a wild wave by the wind when it opened the door, and the glass on the wooden window was shaken into several pieces and fell straight down into ballast.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Mother! ”

Ruan Miaoling was sweating profusely and sat up straight, her clothes were already soaked with sweat and clinging to her skin, and her hair was wrapped around her neck to strangle her breathlessly.

"Miss, Miss!" Wen'er rushed in barefoot, felt a cold hand, quickly pulled up the quilt and wrapped it around Ruan Miaoling, and asked in a low voice: "Nightmare?" ”

Ruan Miaoling nodded, and subconsciously looked at the inside of the bed, leaving an empty space for one person.

Wen'er reached into the quilt and sighed: "Miss, why are you sleeping in a ball again?" ”

The wet area only occupies a small part, how advanced does the young lady have to sleep to this extent? There are more than two people sleeping in a big bed, and this kind of sleeping method is not to find guilt for yourself.

"Get used to it."

Ruan Miaoling changed into dry clothes, and looked at the empty seats inside, as if he could see Xu Yuan lying there sleepy, even if he couldn't hear the noise of Wen'er.

Sometimes she is very curious, except for Mrs. Xu, who really treats Xu Yuan well, the rest of the people in the Xu family can't wait for Xu Yuan to exist, and they are all harming him openly and secretly...... Living in such an environment, how could he sleep soundly?

"It's almost dawn."

Wen'er turned his head to look out of the door, the misty blue light shone on the steps, the fog was very heavy, and the stone bricks laid out under the steps were all invisible. "It's still early, Miss wants to stop sleeping for a while?"

"How was my aunt and grandmother looking yesterday?" Ruan Miaoling asked.

"Radiant, sixty years old, sixteen years old." Wen'er dangled her little feet to block Ruan Miaoling's back, and the cold wind was hidden behind Luo Wei, and roll after roll hit.

"Miss, I must have dreamed of something wrong with the eldest princess." Wen'er gently circled Ruan Miaoling from behind and comforted: "It is said that dreams are reversed, Miss, the slave maid also dreamed that you were married to Xu Rotten Wood on the night you fell into the water, and finally were poisoned by a big bad guy...... Although the lady in the dream is gone, when the slave wakes up and sees that you are still alive, the dream is not credible. ”

Ruan Miaoling clenched her fists, turned her head slightly and asked, "What about you?" Are you dreaming of yourself? ”

Ask Hehe smiled, "How can it, the slave maid has been looking at the young lady, how can I see myself......" The hot air flow on Ruan Miaoling's back aroused her vigilance and straightened up.

It was suddenly noisy outside, and the housekeeper saw that the door of the third lady's room was open, but she didn't know if she was awake, so she didn't dare to come in.

The maid urged vigorously: "You should hurry up and get an idea, rubbing your hands and feet can't solve the problem!" The messenger from the Eldest Princess's Mansion is still waiting for a reply......"

"Who's going to deliver the message?"

The maid and the housekeeper were frightened by the third lady who suddenly appeared in front of the door and took a few steps back, and they didn't know if it was because of the cold or because they were afraid, and they trembled for a long time: "I haven't seen that person...... I came here half an hour ago......"

Wen'er took a thick robe and put it on Ruan Miaoling, but she didn't hear them say Xiangqiao's name, thinking that someone with bad intentions deliberately pretended, "Since you don't recognize it, why didn't you send it away earlier?" ”

"We want to send it away, but the man refuses to leave, and he will not stop until he sees the young lady. The doorkeeper asked him what was wrong, but he didn't reply, just cried vigorously, so he was a man......"

"What about General Gu?"

"Before that person came, General Gu had already gone to the mansion." The housekeeper replied very neatly.

Guren is not there...... Ruan Miaoling glanced at the misty sky, how could it be so coincidental?

In the morning light, there was a low rattling sound from the gate of Xifu, and the messenger at the foot of the steps was already crying hoarsely, and the head lying on the ground was raised mechanically, and his eyes were dull.

The glimmer hit him, and the housekeepers, maids, gatekeepers, and Wen'er who came out of Ruan Miaoling saw Bai Lian tied around his waist clearly.

The messenger opened his mouth wide and made a hoarse voice, looking at the familiar figure in the crowd, and his dry eyes re-gushed with crystal water, "Ah......hhhh

Ruan Miaoling moved her steps with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and her mind was blank. The eaves and lanterns, the long street, and the tethered horse stones came into her eyes one by one, but she couldn't tell what they were...... The white smear on the messenger's waist constantly irritated her eyes, as if she was mercilessly mocking, ridiculing her for being powerless, powerless, and powerless, predicting that she would have no relatives and no reason, and she would be helpless and powerless to return to heaven!

Checking the pulse, grasping the medicine, and admonishing every now and then, she did everything she could think of and do! What else is there?

"Miss's dream is true."

The autumn wind blew people's scalps cold, and when the day dawned, the light was blocked behind the misty clouds, and the sky and earth were gray and dry.

……

"Ahh

He Fangnian straightened up and rubbed his itchy nose, and smiled at Gu Renguan's faction, he couldn't laugh in his heart, and when he pulled the corners of his mouth, he stubbornly resisted a little, and pulled the corners of his lips open a bloody mouth.

"Shhhh

Gu Ren Bafeng did not move, and said: "Although the official matter is urgent, Lord He has to take care of his own body. It's nothing to add a scar to the corner of my forehead and eye like a rough person, and Lord He, as the head of a mansion, can't be arbitrary. ”

He Fangnian nodded, catching a glimpse of Xu Yuan coming in from outside and hurriedly calling him to get a box of ointment, before getting down to business.

"Someone saw General Gu go out of the city on the night of the fire, can you give this official an explanation?"

Gu Ren said: "The two corpses found in Lu Jin's military camp, Lord He can check them. ”

"What does the corpse have to do with you, don't get off the hook."

"I found it." Guren Road.

"You can't kill you, do you?" It doesn't make sense, He Fangnian frowned and looked at Gu Ren, puzzled. "You have no grudge against Lu Jin, this reason is not legitimate, and this official cannot accept it."

Gu Ren shook out two signs from his sleeve, "What was found on the corpse, Lord He should recognize it." He pointed to the two mountains on the board, "Soldiers." ”

"Those two corpses were originally in Liuyin Mountain, and I found this on them when I was going to return the originals. Lu Jin and Li Chongshan are in-laws again, and it is easy to find out the identities of these two people with many people in the military department, but Lu Jin hid this matter from Lord He, indicating that there is a secret between them that he doesn't want people to know. ”

And among the forces hidden behind this secret, there may be the culprit of the mountain fire case, He Fangnian touched his head habitually, and he really wanted to be bald for this big case.

Chang Sui walked into the lobby quickly, his speech was not as sharp as usual, his eyes were full of panic, and he said timidly: "My lord, Princess Lingyang is gone this morningβ€”β€”"

Gu Ren and He Fangnian stood up at the same time in shock, and when they saw Xu Yuan standing by the door, the three of them met their eyes on Chang Sui, and for a moment thought that they had misheard.

He Fangnian muttered too suddenly, turned around and walked into the back hall in a daze, followed by Chang Sui. Gu Ren shouted badly, pulled his legs and rushed to the West Mansion, after he left, the government was busy up and down, preparing white cloth wine, and the officials ran out to find someone to do the dojo familiarly, and one after another mourning posts were sent from the back hall to the north, south, west and east.

The overlapping figures dangled in front of Xu Yuan's eyes, and someone in the crowd suddenly grabbed his sleeve, weighing as much as a thousand catties.
