Chapter 429: Rockery Encounter

Just when the two of them were in love, the door of the hall was suddenly pushed open, Jing Ning looked at it in a little panic, and was slightly relieved to see that it was Wen Xing. Wen Xing looked at Xiao Rin with wide eyes, she thought she was dazzled. Jing Ning coughed lightly when he saw this, and just as he wanted to say something, Wen Xing quickly retreated, and closed the door for the two of them by the way.

"Look at you, you're scared, your face has changed." Xiao Rin laughed in a low voice and stroked Jing Ning's hair, and there was a deep affection and honey in his eyes.

Jing Ning glared at Xiao Rin with disgust, if it weren't for him, why would he be so flustered? But Xiao Rin's scorching gaze made her unable to complain, Jing Ning's eyebrows were lowered, her cheeks were as bright as peach blossoms, revealing a slender neck, Xiao Rin's eyes darkened, and a little hot emotion flashed in her eyes.

"Ning'er." Xiao Rin's voice was a little hoarse, and his rough fingers rubbed Jing Ning's white and tender cheeks, hugging Jing Ning tightly into his arms.

"I heard Daddy say that Concubine Ji Guifei attacked you because the two of us had no children under our knees, it's not easy to deal with this kind of thing, why don't we solve this problem completely?" Xiao Rin picked up Jing Ning horizontally as he spoke, and walked towards the couch in the inner room.

Jing Ning buried herself in Xiao Rin's arms and whispered, her earlobes were already red and dripping blood, Xiao Rin's eyes darkened a little when he saw this, he carefully put Jing Ning on the bed, leaned over and leaned over to her.

In the evening, Wen Xing thoughtfully called someone to bring the bath bucket in, Jing Ning looked at Wen Xing's ambiguous gaze, her face became hot, she reached out in shame and pinched Xiao Rin, who looked satisfied, but she was not willing to use her hand hard. Xiao Rin raised his sword eyebrows, and while Wen Xing was not paying attention, he took Jing Ning's hand that fell on his waist and quickly pecked her palm.

Jing Ning only felt a tingling in her palm, she quickly withdrew her hand and glared at Xiao Rin angrily. Xiao Rin smiled lowly, and looked at Jing Ning's eyes more and more doting.

Early the next morning, at the urging of Jing Ning, Xiao Rin reluctantly changed her clothes and prepared to leave the palace. He originally wanted Jing Ning to rest for a while, but she really didn't worry about Xiao Rin, so she insisted on holding on to her weak body to get up to see him off.

"It seems that Madame's physical strength has improved a lot during this time, and she still has the strength at this time." Xiao Rin said it seriously, but there was a bit of a ruffian smile on his face.

"I haven't seen it for a few months, and I don't know how many women I've flirted with outside."

Jing Ning snorted softly with shame, and made a dark look of doubt on his face. There was not the slightest doubt in her watery eyes, she knew Xiao Rin's personality and understood his feelings for herself.

Xiao Rin immediately straightened up when he heard this, and he said with a serious face: "You have wronged me, I am dealing with military affairs every day and night except for my wife, how can I have any other thoughts, besides, no matter how good others are, they are not as good as you in my heart." ”

A smile appeared on Jing Ning's lips, although she knew that Xiao Rin had a deep affection for her, but when he said it so seriously, Jing Ning's heart couldn't help but tremble.

"It's getting late, let's go." Jing Ning was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave Xiao Rin if he was soft-hearted, so he hurriedly smiled and took his sleeve and walked out.

Xiao Rin sighed lightly, and couldn't help but feel a little pity in his heart, Jing Ning has been under too much pressure these days, so he will be so cautious, a little deep color flashed in his eyes, now that he has returned, he will definitely not let her fall into danger again.

At this time, the soldiers on duty at the palace gate had just been replaced, Jing Ning and Xiao Rin were hiding behind the rockery on the side, Jing Ning looked nervous and observed the surrounding situation, for fear that Xiao Rin would be seen. But Xiao Rin looked leisurely and complacent, looking at Jing Ning without blinking, and his eyes were full of smiles.

As soon as Jing Ning wanted to make a sound to let Xiao Rin leave, he saw Xiao Rin frowning, he shook his head slightly at Jing Ning, and Jing Ning knew that he would no longer make a sound.

After a while, a sound of footsteps sounded, and Xiao Rin pulled Jing Ning into the crack of the rockery, and both of them relaxed their breathing.

The sound of footsteps gradually became clear, and a bright yellow hem with a dragon tail embroidered on the hem of the dress was reflected in the vision of the two.

Jing Ning and Xiao Rin glanced at each other, their eyes were full of surprise, why was Zhao Yu here?

Jing Ning poked his head out slightly, only to see that Zhao Yu's eyebrows were full of uneasiness, he looked around, and after making sure that there was no one around, he gently knocked on the rockery a few times rhythmically, and the knocked stones moved away little by little. Zhao Yu walked in quickly.

Jing Ning, who witnessed the whole process, frowned, she always felt that Zhao Yu's movements were very familiar, yes! The man who introduced her to the secret passage that day was Zhao Yu's actions. After thinking about it, Jing Ning finally knew what was wrong, since the man knew Zhao Yu's secret way, he must be a person that Zhao Yu trusted very much, now that Zhao Yu had ascended the throne, there was no need for the man to hide, but Jing Ning had never seen him in the palace.

At this moment, Xiao Rin led Jing Ning to stand in front of the stone gate, he stretched out his hand to recall the rhythm of Zhao Yu knocking on the stone door, and his slender fingers gently fell on the stone door. After a few clicks, the stone door slowly moved open.

Jing Ning and Xiao Rin glanced at each other, and then walked into the secret passage. However, as soon as the two of them got used to the darkness in the secret passage, they saw Zhao Yu lying on the ground. Xiao Rin hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhao Yu up and sit down against the stone wall, he reached into Zhao Yu's wrist, and after concentrating for a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, but his face was very serious.

"Look at this vein, it should be poisoned." Xiao Rin said in a deep voice.

Jing Ning raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in her heart, Zhao Yu had been plotted against him only a few days after he ascended the throne, and she didn't know who was so bold, she looked at Xiao Rin, but saw Xiao Rin's eyes flashing a little confused.

"What's wrong?"

"II...... His Majesty's pulse seems to be very vain, not at all like a person who has practiced martial arts since childhood, and His Majesty has always been cautious, how could he be poisoned so easily, and if he knew that he was poisoned, he should declare the imperial doctor at this time, why did he appear here? By the way, where is this? ”

Xiao Rin observed the surrounding environment, and he didn't know that there was a secret passage in the palace. When Jing Ning heard this, he told Xiao Rin about the previous events in detail, Xiao Rin had been away from Kyoto for a long time, and there were some things he didn't know the details of.

Xiao Rin nodded slightly after listening, he frowned and looked at the unconscious Zhao Yu, a little suspicious in his heart.

"Your Majesty?" Xiao Rin called in a deep voice. Seeing that Zhao Yu didn't react, he stretched out his hand and reached into Zhao Yu's collar.

Jing Ning's eyes widened on the side, and there was a little weirdness in her gaze when she looked at Xiao Rin, she didn't know that Xiao Rin still had such an unknown interest.
