345 You are poison
Liuli sat in the big sedan chair, the sedan curtain was lowered, and I didn't know what the scene was outside, I just felt that the more I walked, the quieter it became, and I wanted to lift the curtain to take a look, when I heard Ye Tong Liu Wei shouting, and then the sedan chair suddenly went to the side, and the front and back teams of government soldiers suddenly messed up, mixed with the screams of laurel begonias, some people called "grandma", some people shouted "not good", and then the footsteps and shouts all sounded.
When the sedan chair rolled over, Liuli immediately held the sedan bar, and when the sedan chair landed and stopped, she immediately squatted down and shrank into the corner, and just raised her head, an arrow was shot at the position where she was just sitting!
Someone is plotting against her! The thought crossed her mind. But there was no time to think about it, and at this time she had to find a way to protect herself.
"Ruri!" When she was thinking about what to do, the curtain suddenly opened, and Du Rui appeared at the door of the sedan chair with an anxious face, and behind him was the laurel begonia who was also looking inside with wide eyes. Ye Tong stood beside Haitang with a knife, while instructing the guards to surround the sedan chair, and on the other hand, let the soldiers chase people.
"Are you alright?" Du Rui saw her cowering in the corner, and immediately bowed in.
Liuli shook her head: "What happened?"
Du Rui said: "Someone ambushed you on the side of the road. I happened to bump into them, and when I came to warn you, those people had already done it. He lifted Ruri up and walked out. Liuli glanced at the soldiers around him, and immediately asked Ye Tong: "Do you know who those people are?" Ye Tong shook his head with his eyebrows: "They are all masked people, Liu Wei has already led people to chase after them."
"Masked man?" That is to assassinate her. The soldiers of the government already have the mark of the general of Zhenguo on the sedan chair, and the people who ambushed them will not be unrecognizable, since they are still attacking her, they must be coming at her. Liuli suddenly remembered the scene of Duan Wenhui in her room yesterday, and immediately became alert: "These people are either the queen's people or the prince's people!" What about the eunuch?"
"I've escaped!" Ye Tong lowered his head in shame. "It just happened suddenly, and the little one has no time to take care of him, and after stopping the assassins from continuing to commit murder, he will see that he has fled."
"He's definitely not going to get away, so you can chase him now. Be sure to keep a live mouth to bring back! Ruri immediately ordered.
"Grandma!" Ye Tong looked at her in embarrassment, and then at Du Rui. Qi Yunhao had already told him to protect her safety, and now that Liu Wei has gone to chase people, her personal safety is the most important. What if he's gone and something happens again?
"Since he is in the palace, he must have fled back to the palace, and the only way to enter the palace here is the East Palace Gate, and those people are not physically strong, so they can't run far, and they won't go around to other gates. If you go after it now. Ten of you can catch up! Du Rui glanced in the direction of the street. also said to Ye Tong with a solemn face: "Don't worry about the safety here. I'm in charge here, go ahead! ”
"Go!" Liuli glanced at the remaining three guards next to him, and then said, "There are still so many people, don't rub it in!"
Ye Tong turned around at this time. Jumped lightly on horseback and headed towards the East Palace Gate.
Liuli looked around at the guards and soldiers who were still nervous, and couldn't help frowning. Before she came, she was on guard against Duan Wenhui breaking the secret that Qi Yunhao was not in the mansion, but she didn't expect that she didn't put her mind on this, but tried to trick her out of the mansion! didn't hurt her in the palace, and now she is frantically uniting with the palace people to harm her, it seems that this time she is really ruthless!
At this time, she is probably waiting for good news at home, right?
She looked up at the sky. He looked around again.
Du Rui said: "The sun is getting bigger, let's find a place to sit first." Before the people chase them back, I don't think you should go back yet. ”
Liuli has this intention. Since Duan Wenhui was determined to kill her and wanted to wait for the good news that she was killed, she simply didn't go back to the house. Find a place to set it up, and show her the play in turn. But at first glance, there are no teahouses or restaurants in this vicinity, there is Wangfu Street in front, and there is a bustling city in the back, but Du Rui shouldn't have time to accompany her, right?
"Don't you have to go to the yamen?" She asked.
Du Rui said: "There are not many things to do these days, and it is nothing to go for a day and a half." As he spoke, he pointed to the left front, glanced at her, and said, "It's inconvenient to go to the restaurant teahouse, I have a private house not far away, if you don't mind, go and sit there."
Liuli hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Although she knew that she should avoid suspicion, there seemed to be no perfect way to ensure her safety at the moment. She wouldn't be stupid enough to put herself in danger again in order to avoid this suspicion, and besides, didn't she still have the three guards that Qi Yunhao had left for her at the moment? is not alone in getting along with men and widows, she can do it with a clear conscience.
"I'll explain something more." She nodded at Du Rui, then called Haitang over and said, "You send someone back to the mansion, just say that our sedan chair was ambushed halfway, and I don't know if I was injured or not, it's best to let the whole palace know." He said to the three guards: "You make marks along the way, and let Ye Tong and Liu Wei come directly to Lord Du's house when they come back."
Begonia and the guards nodded in unison and retreated. Liuli nodded to Du Rui, and then bent down to get into the sedan chair.
Du Rui's private house is two streets away, and the sedan chair stopped when it entered the gate, and when Liuli came out of the sedan chair, there were already two grandmothers who came out to support him left and right. Another person who looked like a steward came out to lead the way, leading Liuli and his party to the second gate.
Entering the main hall, Du Rui instructed: "Put two basins of ice in the side hall, and help Mrs. go in to rest."
The side hall is not luxurious, but very exquisite, there is not too much gold, silver and jade, but there are a lot of calligraphy and paintings, the glass is pleasing to the eye, but I found that these calligraphy and paintings are very familiar, a look at the payment, even the whole deployment name "Mr. Xuyang". "Do you like her words?" She looked back and asked Du Rui in amazement.
Du Rui lowered his head and lit incense in the incense burner, and said after a while: "Who doesn't like such words?"
Liuli was stunned, "It's not necessarily unique." ”
Du Rui closed the lid of the incense burner, wiped his hands behind his back, and said, "In my heart, it is unparalleled in the world."
Liuli's heart was shocked, and she always felt that his words were a bit of a pun.
"Sit down." was stunned, he had already turned around and pointed to a soft chair covered with jade beside her, "Standing for a long time is not good for children." ”
Laurel Begonia helped Liuli sit down, and the maids also came in with ice basins.
Liuli looked at the words written by herself on the wall again, and then withdrew her gaze and looked at her feet.
There is a hint of embarrassment in this face-to-face. She never thought that she would get along with him like this, she and him were just her and him in the past, now she was the wife of the imperial court official, he was the new Tanhualang, a respected noble celebrity, the past things can't be said, the current things - it seems that she can only talk about the current things.
"When did you move out?" She said as if in a pleasant manner. The maids in this house should be complete, the house is clean and tidy, and a pot of water-raised lotus flowers in the corner of the wall is even stained with watered water droplets, which looks like someone is often taking care of it.
"I moved out after you got engaged that year." He sat down through a beaded curtain on a small pestle two feet away from her, and looked out the door. is to succumb to this kind of thing that only people sit on, and it does not affect his demeanor at all, so casual, but it makes people feel less rusty. "I've been living here all these years, and only occasionally come back to the Hou Mansion."
Liuli was silent for a long time, "Then Your Highness, she-"
"She doesn't care about me anymore." He interrupted her, "This path is my own choice, and it has nothing to do with anyone. You don't have to worry about what she thinks of you, I've already made it clear to her. It's my business, and it's none of your business. ”
Liuli bit her lip, she really didn't know what to say. No wonder the eldest princess saw her several times, but she never changed her attitude towards her, it turned out that when she didn't know, he had already put so much effort into it.
Laurel and the others were all standing by the side, and the guards were all guarding the door, but the inside and outside of the house were as quiet as no one. The two of them sat across the beaded curtain, abiding by the rules, but there was an indescribable trace of inexplicable feelings wandering.
"You don't want that."
Looking at his figure behind the beaded curtain, she muttered. The years without his participation seemed to have shortened suddenly, and his figure seeped into this time little by little, and when she didn't know it, he surrounded him like a shadow, as if it was her fourteenth birthday in the Wutong Courtyard, and he hugged her.
Even though he said it was none of her business, she still felt that he had paid too much for it and that it was not worth it. If he hadn't met her, he would still be the master of the Marquis of Huaining, how glorious it was to have three generations of undiminished lords, but now he has given up the title, and would rather fight for a future from the official journey - he is excellent, she believes that he will achieve success no matter what he does, but this road is too hard. How she would rather he still be his little son safely, and then marry a wife and have children normally, and live his perfect life in the splendid paste.
"I can't go back." He shook his head, his eyes obsessively staring at the sunlight outside the door, "I heard that there is something called poppy in Siam, which can make people addicted to eating it, and they can't get rid of it for a lifetime. The person who smashed me with a bronze lampstand in the temple six years ago is my poppy, and I will never get rid of it in my life. ”
Liuli stood up suddenly, her sleeves brushing the tabletop, and the teacup rolled upside down on the ground, clattering to pieces.
"Grandma!" Laurel Begonia hurriedly held her up, grabbed her shoulders and pressed her to sit down.
Du Rui sat still, still looking out the door, as if petrified into a statue.
"Du Rui, you just let me die!"
She said loudly.
