Chapter 203: Someone is Dead
Where can Ji Lan still move? She shouted for help, then the blade got closer, and she shrank into tears. And because she only had a belly pocket and shorts on her body, she couldn't cover it because of the threat, so she had to close her eyes in shame, crying and regretting deeply.
If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place. She thought to her chagrin that Zhuo Lan was right.
When the two sisters were in the same room, Zhuo Lan clearly expressed her reluctance. And on the way back to Yuqing Palace, he also persuaded her not to be reckless, so as not to live up to the kindness of Suorentu and Meng Guqing and end up tragically. It's just that Ji Lan dreamed of the "content" she was taught for two nights, and she was teased with spring, and because she was instructed by the Jingshifang and approved by Hai Lanzhu, she had no fear. Since the maid is something that every prince will have before marriage, Ji Lan thought it was irrelevant, but ignored that the order came from Hai Lanzhu instead of Huang Taiji, although Huang Taiji also wanted to arrange these secrets for Sorentu, but he was not as anxious as Hai Lanzhu.
Sorentu has a fever, and this becomes a danger.
Ji Lan understood that when she was naked and taught the two guards to see her, Soren would definitely not want her, and only hoped that the guards would show mercy to her and let her escape, so that she could live reluctantly. It's just that she forgot that the guards around Sorentu were all brought from Horqin through Biltahar back then, in other words, they were also Meng Guqing's people. Naturally, they could only face Meng Guqing, how could they be merciful in the face of a girl like Ji Lan who shamelessly wanted to climb into bed.
One of the two men with the knife withdrew his sword, walked to the table and lit the candlestick, took it back to Ji Lan, shook it from top to bottom, and only after seeing it very clearly did he sneer and say, "I thought it was an assassin." ”
At this moment, Ji Lan suddenly knew that she couldn't survive. In a hurry, he fell to his knees, ignoring the fact that Sorentu was sleeping, and screamed: "The prince saves the minions." I don't want to die! Prince, the slave is here to serve you on the order of Concubine Chen, you can't treat the slave like this! ”
Sorentu was pretending to be asleep, and his anger deepened when he heard it. Ji Lan shouted without shying away at all, not only would others know, but also care about his face and reputation. The people who have been around for so long are more and more unbearable at the critical moment. So angry that he clenched his fists and refused to look back, only sneered and said, "I don't look at her, you get her out." Don't let her talk nonsense, hurry! ”
The guards agreed. A glance at the head of the bed saw Ji Lan's clothes. Therefore, they were all amazed, and they couldn't imagine that Ji Lan would be so presumptuous, and dare to put her clothes on Sorentu's bed. Because it would offend the master if he couldn't get it directly. Then one of them picked it up with a knife and threw it in front of Ji Lan, and shouted, "Put it on!" ”
In order to please Sorentu, Ji Lan applied a little fat powder and eyeliner when she came tonight. At this moment, I have cried and put on makeup, and I look ugly and a little scary. She waited for the blade to pull away. Wiped a handful of tears from his face in a panic, and then had to get dressed in person. She trembled as she wore it, thinking that it was better to die, this kind of insult was even more uncomfortable than Ling Chi. But if she really wanted to die, she wouldn't be able to.
In this way, Ji Lan was then taken down by two personal guards. Since the guards are men, they cannot be guarded directly. He handed it over to Saren and then returned to Sorentu to report it.
"Mama Saren regretted participating in this matter and wanted to come to ask her master for her guilt. The minions were afraid of alarming others, so they stopped them. Master. Can you move to a different place tonight, it's inconvenient here. They didn't dare to say that it was because Ji Lan's clothes had just been spared on the bed that had tarnished his dignity, so they only dared to persuade him like this.
"You're right, I should avoid suspicion when something like this happens." Sorentu sat up all of a sudden, and asked unhappily, "What about Liang Sishan?" Don't you even have eyes? ”
"The minions are coming." Liang Sishan also quietly followed the two guards, and stepped forward to serve tacitly at this moment. Soon helped Sorentu get dressed and went out of the house together.
Sorentu, furious in his heart, walked very quickly, and in a moment he found the door of Balkan's house. Before he could say anything, he saw that Balkan inside had opened the door to greet him, and because the light was still on in the room, Sorentu asked suspiciously, "Why, you haven't slept yet?" ”
"The minions are busy taking accounts, and it's time to sleep." The beginning of the month and the middle of the month are the busiest times for the Welfare Department, as there will be a large amount of money coming and going. This time the profit was more than the last time, and Balkan wanted to report the good news to Sorentu, but he didn't dare to mention it because he saw that his complexion was wrong, and he only asked with concern: "Master, what's wrong?" ”
"I'm going to stay with you tonight." Sorento said, his red face filled with sadness and disappointment. When he entered the house, he told Barkan the reason. Because he and Meng Guqing had taken precautions for a long time, they were well protected tonight, but the saddest thing was that even Saren was involved in the plot to betray them, such a blow was really disheartening.
As soon as Balkan heard this, he knew that he could not be forced, so he hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea with his own hands, and then sent his subordinates to talk to him alone, and only after understanding all the cause and effect did he try to say: "Prince, it is not that the slave intends to defend Mama Saren, but she is also in trouble. ”
"I knew she had a hard time, but she could have told me or hinted at me, but she didn't say anything. If I hadn't been prepared, something would have happened tonight. Even she lied to me, I really can't accept it. "For many years, Sorentu and Saren have been like mother and son, and being deceived by her is equivalent to being deceived by a loved one, and this pain can only be understood by experiencing it firsthand. It was as if Sorrentu had been struck down.
"Don't think so. Master, it's a good thing that nothing happened. Barkan saw that he gritted his teeth and knew that he was angry with the mastermind behind the scenes. The person who instructed him was so impatient* that Hai Lanzhu was in a hurry. Balkan didn't dare to say that Hai Lanzhu was not, so as not to be regarded as provoking the relationship between mother and son, so he had to persuade Sorentu to go to bed quickly.
"How could I possibly sleep." Sorentu smiled wryly and waved his hand, "If you are tired, go to sleep." I'll just sit here. ”
"Master, since this is the case, we might as well discuss how to deal with this matter." How can such a trivial matter as rest be compared with friends in distress. Balkan said with some urgency: "In the opinion of the servants, this matter must not be spread out. Since Ji Lan has been seen by the guards, the master must not want her. It should be sent out as soon as possible, if you are afraid that you will not be able to stop her, the slave will take care of this matter for you, it is better for the slave to dare to ask for her. ”
"What did you say?" Sorentu was taken aback, and asked in great surprise: "By all means, what is this slave worthy of you to take her as a concubine, besides, everyone knows that she is my palace maid, and suddenly became your person, can you escape from it." How can I be so selfish and ruin your reputation! I'll send them away, and I won't bother you!" ”
"Master." Barkan had given up his face before he could make a suggestion, and was very moved to see that Sorentu knew what he meant. After a while, he suddenly thought of another idea: "It's good for the master to discuss it with Gege." But it's so late that it's inconvenient for the master to come forward, so the slave goes to investigate? ”
Sorentu shook his head and said, "No, there are enough rights and wrongs, I can't bother her anymore." Tomorrow I will go to the Emperor to discuss. "Only Huang Taiji can subdue Hai Lanzhu. Sorentu thought that Huang Taiji would help him.
But it's not that simple.
Early the next morning, Sorentu sent Ji Lan and Zhuo Lan to Shou'an Palace, but the reason was not stated. Because of the tacit understanding of both sides, this kind of disposal is the best. Because Sorentu was very disappointed in these two girls, he didn't want to say much in a very bad tone, and was about to pass it away like this, when he suddenly saw Meng Guqing walking in from outside.
Meng Guqing has been uneasy since last night, and has a premonition that something will happen. I came early this morning, because I saw Zhuo Lan and Ji Lan kneeling in front of Sorentu, and they also packed their baggage in their hands, and soon understood that they had happened. Hurriedly walked over, asked the details, and then said to Sorentu: "The prince has dealt with it, but after all, they are sent by the aunt and the emperor to serve, if you put them in Shou'an Palace, it will inevitably resurge, it is better to ......"
"Kill?" Sorentu answered presumptuously, a little frightened.
"No, it's to send them out of the palace." They will not sin to death, but they can no longer be errands, and only by leaving the palace can they never suffer in the future.
"It's too eye-catching to drive out of the palace immediately, so let's put it in Shou'an Palace first, and then pick it up after a while. Someone will definitely criticize you immediately, if E-Niang finds trouble, you will work very hard, I don't allow anyone to hurt you, not the slightest, even if it is E-Niang, even if it is Huang Ama, as long as I am here, they don't want to touch you. "Sorentu is the master.
Meng Guqing was repeatedly persuaded not to move, but he had to rely on it. Seeing that Sorentu was so frustrated, he continued to persuade, they warmed each other for a while, and when they felt warm in their hearts, Meng Guqing heard the sound of wheels moving outside, and his heart was cold, and he hurriedly pushed Sorentu, and said vigilantly: "Fulin is here again." ”
"Slut." Sorentu raised his voice in a low voice: "Didn't you say that you should stay in the house, and what do you want to do?" ”
Being scolded like a slave, Fu Lin's face was hot, but he reluctantly entered the house, and while timidly flattering, he asked tentatively: "I didn't mean to come out of the house, I wanted to say hello to the prince, and then I went back to the room." He was eager to know the outcome of the bed, but he happened to meet Zhuo Lan and Ji Lan leaving here with their baggage, and he was terrified. After a period of speculation, Fulin found that Zhuo Lan and Ji Lan were not only unsuccessful, but were quietly dismissed, very anxious.
He thought that he must not let Sorentu and Meng Guqing escape in this way, and they must be allowed to fall into the fire pit that they cannot escape, so that they can be successfully dismantled and their reputation ruined. It should take advantage of the fire to rob and start with the matter of Zhuo Lan and Ji Lan. Thinking about them, Fu Lin unconsciously thought of rumors. He thought that it didn't matter if Ji Lan and Zhuo Lan rushed to bed even if they didn't succeed, as long as they spread rumors and showed that they had succeeded, people who didn't know the truth would always believe that after spreading falsehoods, it would not be okay for Sorentu to take concubines at that time, so that Meng Guqing would fall out with Sorentu, and he would have an opportunity. It's just that Fu Lin never thought that his self-righteousness would provoke a human life.
