Chapter 7 [Night Lake Excitement]

At night, the surface of the lake is so calm that there is not a trace of ripples, like a mirror of the sky. Xiao Yan carried Ru Mo to the lake, and suddenly threw her off the lake, and in an instant the calm lake surface splashed with ripples, and countless water droplets flew into the air, like pearls.

Ru Mo, whose body was all immersed in the water, swung his arm and struggled a few times, and finally let his head out of the water, coughed a few times, and exhaled a long breath, only to feel that his body was not so hot, and his consciousness was a little clearer, and the cool and thorough lake water seeped into the sea from between the hairy bones, which was extremely comfortable.

Ru Mo was thrown into the lake unexpectedly, although the effect of the medicine was a lot of relief, but after she woke up, she felt that she could no longer take out a trace of strength to flutter, as her body gradually sank, she wanted to shout, but she was physically and mentally exhausted and couldn't shout out.

Xiao Yan, who was on the edge of the lake, bent down, and saw that Ru Mo, who had just poked her head out, was sinking a little bit, her heart tightened, and she cursed, "This stupid girl can't swim." Then he untied the jade belt around his waist in two by two, jumped out of the lake without hesitation, picked up Ru Mo, whose head had sunk, and anxiously called her name, "Hey, Leng Rumo, hey, Leng Rumo, hey......" Before he finished shouting, Ru Mo choked on water and coughed, and made a sound, "I'm still ...... Not....... Dead ......"

Xiao Yan, who was hugging Ru Mo, changed his face in the water, as if he was blaming, as if he was distressed, and seemed to be crying and laughing, "I'm not dead, and you're still scaring me so much?"

Ru Mo was slightly stunned when she heard Xiao Yan's words, thinking that he was also afraid of her death, she turned her head to him with emotion, but met his dark and bright starry eyes, like jewels, lined with lake water, and he looked even more handsome and dazzling.

"Do you care about me?" Ru Mo stared at Xiao Yan obsessively, a shy smile overflowed on her lips, and she muttered.

Xiao Yan couldn't help grabbing Ru Mo's cold hand in the water, as if grabbing a piece of cold and gentle jade, causing a wave of ripples in his heart, and suddenly a trace of worry flashed in his expression, let go of her hand, left her, and swam towards the lake alone.

Ru Mo looked at Xiao Yan's back, her heart was cold, she didn't know where she offended this prince, or that sentence; "Turning your face is faster than turning a book", all the grievances seem to explode in an instant, her hands are slapping the water, crying with tears streaming down her face, almost all the secrets that are pressed in her heart and make her breathless shout out immediately, so that she can relax; "It's not my fault, I just want to avenge my father, I didn't poison the emperor, it's just ordinary incense, and I don't have any antidote, it's just mint balls......"

Xiao Yan didn't look back, he couldn't be soft-hearted. What he has been looking forward to, what he has always wanted to prove, what he has been waiting for, finally knows at this moment, but sometimes there is not much difference between knowing and not knowing, and now he can only pretend that he doesn't know anything.

He picked up the jade belt on the ground and walked step by step calmly, "This stubborn and proud girl finally admitted that she was the one who gave incense to the emperor, it turns out that she also has a vulnerable side." But this stupid girl, how could she know that she could escape the clutches of the emperor tonight, all because of her sister, and her sister is not unconditional!"

In the emperor's warm pavilion, a thick plush carpet is laid out, and when you step on it, you feel very soft and comfortable.

Xiao Baojuan half-leaned on the soft couch, looked at Ru Mo in front of him with a smile, playing with a small sachet in his hand, and didn't speak, just looked at her attentively.

Ru Mo felt that the atmosphere was awkward, so she asked first; "Is the slave's sister alright?" She thought that Xiao Bao ran to her sister in a tornado that night, and her sister must be very sick.

"Leng Jieyu just suffered from the wind and cold, and she is fine." Xiao Baojuan took a sip of tea, his expression showed a little complaint, if it weren't for the cold Xinmo saying that he was seriously ill, he dared to go in a hurry, and he would not have lived up to the wind and snow that night.

"It's okay......" Ru Mo broke out in a cold sweat, what would she say next when she was brewing in her heart? Your Majesty, the slaves and maids have something to ask for......" Before she finished speaking, Xiao Baojuan waved his hand to interrupt and smiled; "Concubine Ai has something to say, never talk about anything in front of me."

"Concubine?" Ru Mo heard this title so harshly, laughed twice, and knelt on her knees, "Please ask the emperor to help my father Leng Qiulin wash away his grievances." ”

"Leng Qiulin's case will be discussed later. You can help me see what kind of incense is this in my hand?" Xiao Baojuan got down, walked up to Ru Mo, put her request aside first, and changed the topic.

Ru Mo stood up depressedly, took the small sachet in Emperor Xiao Baojuan's hand, sniffed it reluctantly, and gave a five-word answer, "The slave doesn't know." ”

Xiao Baojuan rolled his brows, a little puzzled in his heart, "Doesn't Concubine Ai know the art of incense?" How could you not know?"

"Oh? Does the emperor also have research on incense?" As soon as Ru Mo entered this warm pavilion, he smelled an unusual fragrance here, and saw the small sachet in Xiao Baojuan's hand, and he had already guessed it.

"I've always liked to mix incense, so I have this hobby." Xiao Baojuan replied with a smile, pointing to the flower stand in the corner, "What kind of incense is this?" asked Ru Mo again.

Ru Mo approached and saw that on the flower stand was a green jade flower pot, which reflected the white-petaled marigold narcissus inside, which looked elegant and exquisite. The flower is in full bloom, and once the smell is emanated, it is full of dark fragrance.

"The scent of narcissus." Ru Mo suddenly realized, raised the sachet in his hand, and smiled at the emperor, "It turns out that this sachet is the fragrance of this daffodil?"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Xiao Baojuan's eyes, and then he smiled again and said in a gentle tone; "Jia Tangyue still hasn't taught you the art of incense. But don't worry, this won't affect your status in my heart, and I will immediately issue a decree to canonize you as 'Concubine Mo'. ”

"Why is the emperor so good to slaves?" Ru Mo wondered, since the emperor already knew that he didn't know how to smoke incense, why did he call her a "concubine"?

Xiao Baojuan's eyes were full of pampering, he held up Ru Mo's chin, and smiled leisurely, "Because you are the one who can turn ordinary incense into poison." After saying that, he walked out of the warm pavilion with a laugh!

Since her sister Xinmo was named Jieyu, Ru Mo hasn't seen her sister yet, because the last time her sister poisoned her, she was always a little disappointed, if Xiao Yan hadn't helped her detoxify, her face might have swollen into something? Thinking of Xiao Yan, I couldn't help but feel sweet in my heart, he saved himself again and again, can she afford this kindness?

Ru Mo walked to her sister's residence, and when she saw the three gilded characters of "Lenghua Palace" on the lintel, she thought that Xiao Baojuan was also very fond of her sister, otherwise her sister claimed that she was seriously ill that night, and then it was just a cold wind, and Xiao Baojuan didn't complain at all?

Ru Mo walked up the stairs and was stopped by the little palace maid who rushed over last time, "Our master just took the medicine and rested, please come again tomorrow." ”

"Do you know who I am? I am your master's own sister, you dare to stop me?" Ru Mo was amused for a while, and whispered to the little palace maid.

"Our master really rested...... the little palace maid's attitude eased a little, but her hand still stopped her stubbornly and didn't let Ru Mo enter.

Ru Moban lowered her face and said coldly, "The emperor is about to crown me as Concubine Mo, you little palace maid dare to block the way of the concubine, not to mention that I am your master's own sister, do you want to commit the next crime?"

The little palace maid's face changed suddenly, and she hurriedly turned around and said; "The slave maid went to inform the master...... "Just opened one leg, was pulled by Ru Mo, and shouted;" Not necessarily. ”

Ru Mo pulled away the little palace maid who was in the way, and walked inside, when she crossed the corridor to reach the dormitory, her footsteps stopped, and she only heard the laughter of Leng Xinmo from the flower garden......

"Lord Wang, my hairpin is crooked, you can help me straighten it." Leng Xinmo leaned into Xiao Yan's arms. Ru Mo raised her head and looked towards the voice, only to see her sister Xinmo holding Xiao Yan with both hands, with a coquettish smile on her face.

Ru Mo only felt a burst of sadness in her heart, and the sadness came to her heart and drilled into her eyes, making her suddenly feel that this situation was very dazzling, and just wanted to leave, the little palace maid just now chased after her, attracting the attention of the two people in the flower garden.

"Sister." Leng Xinmo's hands hurriedly put down from Xiao Yan's waist and walked towards her sister Ru Mo, her expression was very natural.

"I thought my sister was very sick, so I came to visit her, it seems that my sister is not seriously ill?" Ru Mo looked at her sister, her voice stiff to the extreme, and she glanced at her slightly mockingly; "Is my sister coming at the wrong time and ruining my sister's good deeds?"

Leng Xinmo was embarrassed, "Sister...... When Mo'er ...... not knowing how to answer, he looked at Xiao Yan, but he stood in place like a log, his attention was focused on his sister Ru Mo, his expression was complicated, as if he had lost his soul.

Ru Mo ignored her sister anymore, walked to Xiao Yan's side, bent down slightly, forced herself to calm down, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Slave maid please the prince." None of us owe anyone anything. The latter sentence is more like talking to himself, and after speaking, he turns around and runs.

Xiao Yan was just about to chase after him, but was stopped by Leng Xinmo; "Lord Wang, have you forgotten what you promised me?"

Xiao Yan couldn't forget that day in the pavilion, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the queen's mouth, and she casually said to Jieyu beside her; "Tonight is your sister Leng Rumo's bedtime, right?"

The teacup in Xiao Yan's hand fell to the ground suddenly, the tea splashed everywhere, he was stunned on the spot, and looked straight at the queen, "Who will sleep tonight?"

"Leng Jieyu's sister is the palace maid who used to be around the palace, Ru Mo. What's wrong with the prince today, so uncalm?" The queen covered her face with a handkerchief and smiled, she had already guessed that the prince in front of her was tempted, from the moment he came to her to ask her for the antidote for the girl, she knew that he was in love with the girl, since she knew, she didn't believe that she couldn't die Leng Rumo's little girl.

"Lord Wang, it's not hot, is it?" Leng Xinmo quickly took out her handkerchief, ran to Xiao Yan, knelt down on her knees, and gently wiped the tea on her hand for him, without avoiding suspicion, which made the queen happy again, picked up a small piece of puff pastry, put it in her mouth, and squinted and thought; "What two sisters from the Leng family, this palace makes you incompatible."
