Chapter 48: The Trap
If that palace maid is the person next to her?!
Tang Ruyan frowned slightly, if this palace maid was the person next to her, then what about Qing'er? Can Qing'er say that she is her maid in marriage? However, as a princess born by the queen, it is natural that there are a few maids around her.
Save her! A voice flashed from his mind, Tang Ruyan was slightly stunned, his brows furrowed slightly, the voice should be from the original owner's **********, it seems that the maid should have a lot of relationship with her, thinking of this, Tang Ruyan decided to save the palace maid.
The group walked to the corner, Tang Ruyan's figure flashed, and he broke away from the team, and saw that there was no figure around, so he quickly chased towards the place where the palace maid left, and the more remote he went, according to the route drawn by Xiaohu in his memory, this should be the most corner of the harem, there is only a dilapidated courtyard, and no one lives.
The guards dragged the palace maid to the courtyard, and immediately a man wearing a coarse cloth coat with a meaty face walked out, and saw the palace maid with an obscene expression on her face, "Put it here." ”
The guard hesitated a little, but after facing the man's evil eyes, he had to put the man down, glanced at the palace maid with infinite pity, and turned to leave.
Out of the courtyard, the two guards sighed: "Poor another girl is going to be ruined here, but it's a cheap guy, first ravaged by such a man, and then tattooed with the word slave and sent to the border as a military prostitute, it's really worse than death, you say that she is also unlucky, how beautiful she used to be with the princess, and then the princess came out of the pavilion, somehow she was left behind, pitiful, pitiful." ”
Tang Ruyan, who was hiding in the shadows, heard the words of the two clearly, and was even more sure that the girl was the person next to her, and as soon as the two left, they immediately dodged into the courtyard.
The big man dragged the palace maid to the house, and was having a descene affair with the line, and suddenly found that there was one more person in the room, and he was shocked at first, you must know that no one wants to come to this place, and after seeing that the person who came was also dressed as a palace maid, he looked at Tang Ruyan with a wicked smile, "Another one who took the initiative to send it to the door, today Uncle Ben is very happy." ”
As he spoke, he walked towards Tang Ruyan, and Tang Ruyan suddenly felt a chill. glanced at the lewd man with disgust, and a sneer tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Really? ”
Before the man's answer could be answered, his eyes widened in horror, and his body fell straight backwards with a thud.
Tang Ruyan showed a touch of coldness at the corner of his mouth, swept directly over his body, and walked towards the palace maid, such a person felt that his eyeballs were tainted at a glance, and he still had a scary face like that, it was really-
"Wake up." Tang Ruyan patted the palace maid's cheek, and stood up when she woke up.
The palace maid was obviously still in shock, and the first thing she saw when she woke up saw a round, wide-eyed man who had fallen to the ground, 'Ah-' Before the sound came out, Tang Ruyan sealed the acupoint.
Although this is a remote place, this is the territory of the palace after all, so it is better to be careful in everything.
The girl looked at Tang Ruyan in horror, her eyes were full of doubts, and then she seemed to have discovered something, staring at Tang Ruyan's face in disbelief.
Tang Ruyan only put on a little light makeup, and added a few finishing touches to his face, but the original appearance was still faintly visible. Apparently, the palace maid found out about this.
"Do you still know me?" Tang Ruyan said softly, and saw that the palace maid's eyes were full of tears, and after taking a closer look, tears flowed down.
"Princess, is it really you? The slave thinks she'll never see you again in this life. The palace maid looked at Tang Ruyan, as if she was afraid that she would disappear in the blink of an eye, "Princess, I'm not dreaming, right?" ”
A princess who should be far away from home, a person who thought that she would never see her again in this life, but at this moment she is standing in front of her alive, and it is difficult to accept it for a while.
"It's me." Tang Ruyan didn't intend to hide his identity, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, we must leave here as soon as possible and follow me." ”
With keen intuition, Tang Ruyan knew that someone was walking towards this side, the movement was not fast, and the steps were very light, but when she heard it, she hurriedly pulled up the palace maid, "No matter what you see, don't make a sound, you know?" ”
The palace maid nodded obediently, Tang Ruyan grabbed her arm, kicked the soles of her feet, and the two of them quickly left from the side.
At this time, the palace was very quiet, the key figures were all at the ceremony of the Poseidon Festival, and the focus of the guards had also shifted, only the guards who patrolled the palace in the empty shell, and then the lowly miscellaneous envoys, but they rarely came out.
The two successfully got rid of the tracking behind, and Tang Ruyan took the palace maid all the way to the Zoyou Palace. This palace no longer has a place for palace maids, and this place, which is the nightmare of almost all harem women, has obviously become the best hiding place.
No one wants to come to this kind of place.
After the palace maid came in, she saw the scene inside, and her body was trembling, even in the middle of summer, even if the sun was shining, this place looked eerie and terrifying, the palace maid hugged her arms tightly, and her eyes revealed fear.
"This is the Zoyou Palace?" The palace maid's lips trembled and she said these three words, and after seeing Tang Ruyan nodding, her body trembled even more, "Princess, don't stay here, the unjust souls here will ask for their lives." ”
Tang Ruyan rolled her eyes, she had asked for a good time just now, but now she was afraid of these non-existent things. "Asking for your life? If I hadn't saved you, you'd probably be no better off than being asked for your life, would you? I couldn't get used to the behavior of the palace maid, and my words couldn't help but become profitable.
The palace maid was stunned for a moment, looking at Tang Ruyan with doubts in her eyes.
Tang Ruyan didn't care, if this palace maid had been with the original owner for many years, she would naturally be familiar with the temperament of the original owner, a pampered and noble princess, of course different from her.
"Let's go, you can hide here for the time being, I still have something to deal with." Tang Ruyan walked towards the room, and the palace maid had to follow, without refutation or courage.
Through the floating white satin, the person in the corner immediately looked at the two of them, and saw that it was Tang Ruyan's eyes that put down the vigilance, Fu Jinxin shouted: "Yan'er." ”
Tang Ruyan answered, and led the palace maid to her, the two naturally knew each other, and the palace maid was surprised after seeing Fu Jinxin's face clearly, and shouted tentatively, "Queen Mother, is it you?" ”
Fu Jinxin nodded, although she is defeated now, her arrogance is still the same, the queen is the queen, even if it is not good, she is the former queen. "Zi'er." Fu Jinxin shouted.
"Zi'er knocks on the queen." Hearing this, Lan'er immediately knelt in front of Fu Jinxin, "Queen Mother, why are you here?" Concubine Lan said that you are thinking of your daughter and have committed madness, so she sent someone to send you out of the palace for treatment. ”
A sneer appeared at the corner of Fu Jinxin's mouth. "Lan Xin, that cheap woman, will find a high-sounding reason for herself at any time."
Tang Ruyan determined from the content of the conversation between the two that this palace maid was indeed the maid beside her. "Queen Mother, let Zi'er stay here for the time being, I will find a way to take you out of here, now, I have more important things to do." Looking at Zi'er, Tang Ruyan squatted down and looked at her.
"Zi'er, do you know if the children in Xiuzhu Palace are still there?"
Child? Zi'er was stunned for a moment, but nodded, "Concubine Xiu just gave birth to the prince and has been in Xiuzhu Palace. Although she didn't understand Tang Ruyan's purpose, she still answered it simply.
Tang Ruyan nodded, "I'll go first, if someone comes, hide it immediately, otherwise I won't be able to save you." ”
This is not alarmist, in this harem, the life of a palace maid is like an ant, and killing a person is a matter of the masters' words, but that Concubine Xiu is vicious enough, obviously she is clever and laughs at her, but she blames all the blame on a maid, and uses such a cruel method to deal with it.
Out of the Zoyou Palace, Tang Ruyan went straight to Xiuzhu Palace, no matter what, she had to see the child, there was not much time for such a rare time, and she didn't have much time, half a month had passed in the blink of an eye, and there were still more than ten days before the onset of the poison of reincarnation, and she had to rush back to get the antidote with Jiang Ruixuan.
When he was about to arrive at Xiuzhu Palace, Tang Ruyan met Guo Jing, who had already lurked in, he was dressed as a guard, but he didn't look much like this guard, and he was slightly burly compared to ordinary guards.
"Master." Guo Jing looked worried, and after seeing Tang Ruyan, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Ruyan nodded, made a gesture of action, and continued to walk towards Xiuzhu Palace, as soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard the sound of broken cups coming from the main house, and then the room became quiet.
So quiet? A bad feeling hit her heart, but now she couldn't help but retreat, raised her hand and motioned for Guo Jing to wait, she went in alone, Guo Jing naturally disagreed, but Tang Ruyan shook his head resolutely and motioned for him to stay.
Guo Jing nodded, hid in a hibiscus tree, and watched Tang Ruyan enter.
The further I went, the stronger the uneasiness in my heart became. Although she has only seen it from afar, Concubine Xiu is by no means a good stubble, how can she stop being so angry?
I listened by the window, but I could only hear the faint sound of breathing. Tang Ruyan's heart suddenly skipped a beat, how is this possible, there are at least many palace maids in this courtyard.
But—why could I only hear that faint wheezing? And what's going on with the sound just now?
Tang Ruyan put her finger on her tongue and licked it, poked through the window paper on the window and looked in. There was no figure, strange, Tang Ruyan was wondering, he heard a faint wheezing sound again, he was shocked, he looked at the voice, only to see a person lying on the ground, seeing the color of the clothes, Tang Ruyan's heart tightened, no wonder there was a feeling of unease.
looked back, raised his hand and motioned for Guo Jing to leave quickly.
Before Guo Jing could react, he heard a series of footsteps behind him, accompanied by the shouts of the guards, "Catch the assassins, there are assassins." ”
Bad!
The action is so fast!
The two of them thought about each other, Tang Ruyan gave Guo Jing a gesture to leave quickly, Guo Jing was helpless, but he was willing to believe Tang Ruyan, at such a juncture, she let herself go, she must have her thoughts. Thinking like this, Guo Jing turned around and left, but he didn't really leave, but hid in a hidden place.
