Chapter 304: Closing the Net (5)

He Xi sighed and said: "A gentleman and a Taoist forbids people to do things by words, so words must be considered in the end, and actions must be counted on what they do, so the people are cautious in their words and cautious in their deeds." Lord Gongsun is also for Lin'er's good, let's go and let the small kitchen send some food to the study, although the teacher's punishment has to be done, but this body is also to be wanted. ”

Ruyi answered and asked people to go down to prepare, looked at the dishes on the table, and said, "Then the lady should also eat." ”

But because of the psychological concern for Lin'er, He Xi only used a few mouthfuls and put down the dishes and chopsticks. The servant maid cleaned her hands and rinsed her mouth, and there was a tired look on her face.

If she thinks so, she stepped forward and whispered comfort: "Niangniang, the eldest prince's side, it will take an hour or two to come, but there are Cailian and Fulu waiting on the side, the slave and maid look reliable, you are also relieved, the eldest prince is older, and in the future, when you talk with the Taifu in the future, it is indispensable to have a candle night talk, you can't always be so worriedβ€”β€”"

He Xi knew that she was comforting herself, so she nodded and said, "It's okay, the palace will rest for a while, if Lin'er comes back, let him ask for peace here in the palace." ”

Ruyi helped He Xi's hand and walked towards the soft collapse, I don't know why, today He Xi felt sleepy, and after a while, the gold wire embroidery on the Luo tent in front of him was blurred little by little in his vision.

Ruyi watched He Xi fall asleep, so he lightly blew out a lamp near the soft collapse, and the night sank a lot, squeezing in through the cracks in the window lattice, as if it was pervasive, and then wantonly occupied this exquisite and gorgeous palace.

Seeing Ruyi come out, Zijin hurriedly turned around the corner and said hurriedly: "Sister Ruyi-Niangniang is asleep?" ”

Ruyi frowned slightly and said, "Niangniang took a nap, what happened, she was in a panic?" ”

Zijin lowered her head, saying that all her thoughts were hidden in the shadows, but the voice was eager and nervous, revealing a little trembling, she stomped her feet and said: "How is this good, the little eunuch who went to the study to serve back and forth, saying that after our eldest prince ate the night, he suddenly began to vomit, and Cai Lian and Fu Lu had already gone to ask for a doctorβ€”β€”"

As soon as Ruyi heard that something had happened to Tuobalin, she was a little flustered, and she hurriedly said, "Why didn't Cailian and Fulu come back to report?" ”

Zijin shook his head and said: "Xu is just eating bad things, they have to serve by the eldest prince's side, so they sent people to the study, let's tell the mother." ”

Ruyi thought of Fang Cai Hexi's tired appearance, she was a little distressed, she said: "The study is not far from our palace, I'll go and see first, if I haven't come back for half an hour, you will go in and wake up Niangniang, you know?" ”

Zijin nodded again and again and said, "Sister, go quickly, Cailian and Fulu are new, clumsy, don't really cause any trouble." ”

Ruyi didn't dare to delay for half a minute, picked up the palace lamp, and hurriedly went in the direction of the upper study.

The dim palace lamp, reflected in the shadows of the bushes on the side, like countless hands that want to stretch out of the darkness, to pull people in and devour them.

At this time, in the Lingxiu Palace, Zijin stood respectfully in front of the door, and a little palace maid wanted to enter the hall to add incense, but she stopped her, she looked at her smooth nails slowly and said: "How to do things, I don't know if the mother has rested?" ”

The little palace maid saw that it was Zijin, although she was disdainful in her heart, but she was still a little afraid of her, she used to rely on herself to be the eldest prince's side, and she felt superior everywhere, but now that the eldest prince has changed people, she can't get close to Niangniang, and her temper is getting bigger and bigger.

Thinking of this, she was busy blessed with her body, and said obediently: "Sister Hui Zijin's words, this incense was ordered by Niangniang herself before dinner, burning quietly and concentrating, which is most suitable for burning before going to bedβ€”β€”"

Zijin interrupted her impatiently and said: "It's said that it's suitable for burning before going to bed, now that Niangniang has rested, okay, hurry down, make noise here, if you alarm Niangniang, you won't be able to spare you-"

The palace maid's face turned red, but when she saw that Ruyi, who was usually following He Xi, was not there, and she was not good at entangling with Zijin here, she endured her anger and turned to leave.

After she left, Zijin looked at the palace people in front of the door and in the courtyard, and said, "Okay, you should also wait from afar, so as not to make a noise and disturb the rest of the mother." ”

When the people heard this, they hurriedly curtsied and walked farther away.

Zijin looked at the half-hidden vermilion gate, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.

Ruyi walked very fast, it took less than a cup of tea time, and he had already arrived at the upper study, at this moment, the upper study was not the same as he imagined, and he could even hear the sound of the breeze blowing through the blades of grass.

She became more and more confused in her heart, the little eunuch who went to the study knew him, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Ruyi girl, but you came to see the eldest prince?" ”

Ruyi looked inside, but didn't see anyone coming in or out, so he hurriedly said, "Is the eldest prince okay?" ”

The little eunuch didn't know why Ruyi said this, scratched his head, and said with some trepidation: "Miss Ruyi, what's wrong?" But Concubine Xi dislikes the slaves and doesn't take good care of them? ”

As he was talking, he saw a small figure turn out of the corridor, followed by Cailian and Fulu who were carrying food boxes and bookcases.

Although Tuoba Lin's little face was a little tired, but not sickly, he saw Ruyi at a glance, and walked a few steps forward and said: "Why is Sister Ruyi here, I know, it must be the mother concubine who counted that I have to finish my homework, and let you pick me up, right?" ”

Ruyi didn't seem to believe his eyes, stepped forward, and looked at it carefully, there was really no abnormality, and the smile on Tuoba Lin's face was also a little frozen, and said, "Sister Ruyi, what's wrong with you?" ”

Fu Lu's round face looked very pleasing, and he was also clever, he bowed forward and said, "Ruyi girl, the eldest prince was just punished for copying books, why are you so nervous?" ”

It's okay - it's okay -

Ruyi got up and muttered: "Fake, the eldest prince is fine, that's - it's the mother-"

She panicked in her heart and turned around hurriedly, but she didn't forget to tell Cailian and Fulu: "Send the eldest prince to Shoukang Palace, no matter who you meet on the way or what you say, you are not allowed to take the eldest prince away, you must personally hand it over to the concubine." ”

Seeing Ruyi like this, Cailian and Fulu glanced at each other and sensed the importance of the situation.

Although Tuoba Lin was still young, he also recognized something from Ruyi's words, he pulled the corner of Ruyi's skirt and asked, "Is there something wrong in the palace of the concubine?" ”

Ruyi is not in a hurry, where can he still take care of the eldest prince, so he said comfortingly: "The eldest prince is obedient, let Niangniang pick you up tomorrow, today you follow Cailian and Fulu first, remember my sister's words." ”

After she finished speaking, she gave a color to Fu Lu and Cai Lian, Fu Lu and Cai Lian understood, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull away the eldest prince from left to right, and persuaded softly.

Tuoba Lin is a child after all, how can he overcome the strength of two adults, Ruyi ripped off the corner of his skirt and ran towards Lingxiu Palace.

Tuoba Lin cried loudly: "You let go of me, let go of me, bold, I am the prince, you let go of me-"

Fu Lu's face was about to wrinkle into a bun, so he could only hold Tuoba Lin in his arms and said: "My eldest prince, you are the master, but Niangniang is also the master, you are obedient, Niangniang will be fine, even if there is something, you can't help much, let Niangniang rest assuredβ€”β€”"

Cai Lian is timid, how can she go through such a thing, her smiling face turned pale, and she only silently followed Fu Lu's side carrying the bookcase.

There was no one to hold the lamp, so he could only use the faint moonlight to walk towards Shoukang Palace.

When Ruyi returned to Lingxiu Palace, she only felt that her heartbeat was a beat slower, she didn't know how to describe what she saw in front of her, she originally thought that the danger of the palace was secretly plotting, but she had never seen such a scene-

The stumps and broken arms all over the ground, the red blood along the gaps of the bluestone slabs, painted into a strange picture, the air was filled with suffocating blood, but it was still quiet, Lingxiu Palace was like a pool of stagnant water, and the departure of these people did not cause the slightest ripple.

Ruyi's legs couldn't exert their strength, and suddenly a scream hit, it was the direction of He Xi's dormitory-

Ruyi couldn't take care of a lot, if something happened to He Xi, she didn't dare to think about it anymore, what she thought of in her panic was the chou's dying entrustment, and now maybe she is the only one who can protect He Xi.

She ran in the direction of the shouting, not paying any attention to the small figure behind her, stunned, pestle in the moonlight, her eyes shining with horror and tears.

Ruyi bypassed the dead corpses all over the ground, and went in the direction of the dormitory, the closer he got, the more he could hear the sound of the handover of blades, Ruyi suddenly rejoiced in his heart, by the way, there are also Yuewei, and the prince's people, even if there are assassins, Yuewei must be able to protect the mother.

She slowed her steps, and sure enough, she saw several black shadows fighting, and the blade in her hand shone coldly in the moonlight, making people's hairs stand on end.

The door of the dormitory was ajar, and she was hidden behind the pillars, unable to see the direction of the hall, and she was anxious as she thought about how she could slip in without the Assassin's sight.

Suddenly, he heard a sound of footsteps behind him, and a small figure rushed out from his side, crying, "Mother-"

It's Tuoba Linβ€”

Ruyi's heart was full of discouragement, she couldn't hide herself at all, rushed forward, wanted to protect Tuoba Lin, He Xi in the house also heard Tuoba Lin's voice, and her heart tightened.

She was stabbed in the arm, but fortunately, the moon guard arrived in time, so she didn't lose her life, she could only hide behind the door, waiting for the best time to save herself.

But when Tuoba Lin's voice came, He Xi felt that things were not good, why did Lin'er come back, she woke up and didn't find Ruyi, she thought it was by Lin'er's side, how-
