In the Rui Wang's mansion, Xuan Bing watched his master sitting in the study with a black face, and could only silently stand aside and dare not say much, in case his master was not happy, he would hit the board lightly, and his life would be lost.

"Xuan Bing, you go and give me a report on the ins and outs of Yi'er's injury." Rui Wang said coldly.

"Yes, lord." Xuan Bing took the order to go out.

"Concubine Liu, you slut, you dare to hurt the person of this king, but it is too cheap for you to die." King Rui had already crushed the teacup in his hand between words.

Because Ling Ruoyi was seriously injured, she has been recuperating at home, and all the affairs of the medical hall have been handed over to a few doctors. King Qi also ran to Lingfu every day, and he didn't mind other people's opinions at all. But if the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, it is not a big deal to get closer, if the queen marries a sister, the son of heaven marries, it is a rare good story.

From the beginning of the evening, the thunder rumbled continuously, and in an instant the heavy rain poured down, and the pedestrians rushed home. And in the Fengyin Pavilion, Ling Ruoxuan was leaning against the window drinking tea.

"Miss, it's raining so hard, the slave maid will give you some sandalwood." Mu'er said intimately.

"Okay, let's get the piano, I can't sleep anyway."

"Yes." After a while, Mu'er prepared everything, and the rest of the maids also sat around Ling Ruoxi, listening to her young lady playing the piano is enjoyment, listening to the rain, playing very well for the occasion.

The Baoguo Mansion ushered in a baptism of blood on this rainy night. A group of black-clothed people took advantage of the night and thunder to kill in the Baoguo Mansion, and everyone who came was ruthless and did not leave any face, and they all killed people from the neck.

Early in the morning, someone reported the murder of the Baoguo Mansion to the Shuncheon Mansion, and the same news also spread to the Imperial Palace. For a while, there were different opinions, some people said that the emperor was dissatisfied with Concubine Liu Shu's poisoning of Ling Ruohui and sent someone to assassinate the Baoguo Mansion, and some people said that the Ling family was dissatisfied with the emperor's disposal of the Baoguo Mansion, so they took advantage of the rainy night to assassinate the Baoguo Mansion. In short, there are all kinds of sayings, and for a while, Ling Ruoyi became a disaster for the country and the people.

Ling Ruoyi was alone in the Fengyin Pavilion to develop the pills for treating various diseases, only to see Mu Er walk in with a pout.

"Miss, you still have the heart to develop pills, you look at those aunts in the house, they all say that you are a disaster, and those people who don't know what to do, when they were sick, how did you treat them, and now, they also say that you are a disaster, and we won't treat these annoying people in the future."

"Mu'er, how can you say that, they can say it if they want to, isn't Shuntianfu investigating this matter now, and when there is a result, it will naturally be fine." Ling Ruoxuan still looked indifferent.

"Miss, these people talk nonsense all day long, and Aunt Xiao, what they say is so ugly."

"Mu'er, our young lady has always repaid her grievances with virtue, Aunt Xiao, aren't they afraid of being punished by Xiangye and Gongzi for talking nonsense? Now it's the eldest lady and the son in charge. Mengchun almost walked in.

"I'm not worried about them spreading rumors, these few things, especially the poisoning of my uncle before, I went to Qiyun Temple to get ice toads, and then this time the Baoguo Mansion was destroyed, it doesn't matter on the surface, but I always feel that these things are manipulated behind someone's back."

"Manipulation behind the scenes?" Mengchun and Mu'er exclaimed.

"Yes, when Daddy and Yunfei come back, I will have a good discussion with them."

"Well, miss, what about Aunt Xiao?" Mu'er asked.

"Pass on my words, Aunt Xiao and Ling Hanyan will catch the wind and catch the shadows, and deduct this month's case silver with false rumors, and distribute it equally to all the subordinates in the house." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.

Hearing this, Mu'er gloated and said, "Well, you should punish them well, and the slave will go and tell the housekeeper to go down." After finishing speaking, he ran out in a hurry.

At noon, Ling Xiang sat in Ling Xiang's study with King Qi, Ling Yunfei, and Xiahou Jingqi.

"My daughter has seen her father." Ling Ruoyi saluted as soon as he entered the door.

"No, the body is not healed, so there is no need to prostrate. Daddy sent someone to call you over for something. Ling Xiang said softly.

Ling Ruoyi chose to sit down next to Ling Yunfei, and King Qi slowly spoke, "Xian'er, you all know about the destruction of the Baoguo Mansion." ”

"Yes, I heard." Ling Ruoyi's face was indifferent.

"Yi'er, do you know that this Baoguo Mansion is Concubine Liu Shufei's mother's house, Concubine Liu Shufei was ordered to die by the imperial brother for poisoning the imperial family, but it did not implicate the entire Baoguo Mansion." King Qi continued to say lightly.

"Well, I know that the emperor is merciful, and he was too angry to give Concubine Liu Shu an order to kill him, because the emperor was merciful and did not implicate the Baoguo Mansion, but I always feel that this matter is not so simple."

"Oh? What do you think. Ling Xiang was puzzled.

"Uncle was attacked at night before, and I went to Qiyun Temple to get the ice toad, in addition to the Zhenguo Mansion, Daddy, Yunfei and Qi, how many of you know, how did other outsiders know? Otherwise, they won't ambush me on my way back and take my life. But with the help of Que Gongzi, I was able to treat my uncle in time, and the black-clothed men who ambushed me seemed to have all disappeared. Besides, the matter of my entry into the palace, even if I entered the palace to visit the queen's cousin, many people knew, and the matter of my injury, the emperor strictly ordered that it should not be passed on, but the news was spread, and it was very fast, and the people knew it. On the surface, someone is looking for revenge against me, but I think it's against the emperor behind my back. ”

"To the emperor?" Several people looked at Ling Ruoyi together in confusion.

Ling Ruoxuan smiled lightly and continued to speak: "Think about it, think about it, who is the most trusted person around the emperor now, who is the person who supports the emperor?" ”

"I'm with Ling Xiang." King Qi immediately spoke, and then seemed to understand something and said: "Are you saying that someone wants to be unfavorable to the emperor, so he will assassinate the Duke of Zhenguo?" And if the Duke of Zhenguo is dead, then there will be one less weighty person among the important ministers who support the emperor. ”

"Exactly, and my cousin and Yun Fei are now both the commanders and deputy commanders of the palace, if something happens to the Zhenguo Mansion, then my cousin won't have too much energy to protect the emperor, and if something happens to the Ling Mansion, Yun Fei won't stay out of the matter, I think the mastermind behind this is to first bring down the people around the emperor and make the emperor isolated."

"Well, that's right. Could that be the King of Wisdom? Xiahou Jingqi said.

"No, it won't." Ling Ruoxuan and King Qi said in unison. The tacit understanding between the two is really enviable, King Qi saw that a few people were puzzled and continued to speak, "If Brother Rui Wang is the mastermind behind it, he will definitely not hurt Xuan'er, if he wants to kill Xuan'er, he will definitely not lose internal strength for her." ”

"Well, yes, that day for Ruo Yi lost his internal strength, and I also saw that he seemed to be interested in Ruo Yi. If it is said that he is trying to vent his anger for Ruoyi, it is possible to destroy the Baoguo Mansion. Xiahou Jingqi said lightly.

"No, the court is on the side of King Rui, how could he destroy it. The people behind this are really vicious, pushing Ling Fu to the forefront like this is to kill Ling Fu. ”

"That's good." Ling Xiang sighed.

"Ling Xiang rest assured, I will transfer the residual wind and ice rain to secretly protect Ling Mansion." King Qi comforted softly.

"Ice rain?" Ling Ruoxuan was puzzled, Bingyu had heard of it, but all the women in Fengyin Pavilion were women, and it was always inappropriate to send a man as a guard.

"What is she thinking? But you're thinking it's inappropriate to send a man in your yard? King Qi smiled and said softly. It's really the roundworm in Ling Ruoyi's belly, I guessed it, if it wasn't to say that he had no colorful phoenix wings, and he had a good heart, it seemed that the heart of this lover was indeed the same.

"Yes, let's send someone to protect Daddy, I'll be fine here, I'll just put poison powder around the perimeter."

"Then what's the matter, don't you also suspect that the other party has a master of poisoning? Let the ice rain follow you and protect you. After that, he said in a deep voice outside the door: "Residual wind, ice and rain, you come out." ”

In an instant, two figures walked in, and the remnant wind Ling Ruoyi was so common that it would not be unusual, and the ice rain of a light blue dress aroused Ling Ruoyi's curiosity. Seeing that the woman's jade face was inlaid with a pair of smart eyes, although she looked a little cold and arrogant, but she was really a beauty, Ling Ruoxuan couldn't help but feel a trace of vinegar in her heart.

"Bingyu, I've come to see Ruoyi, you will protect her safety in the future, and stay by Ling Xiang's side during this time."

"Yes, lord." The two responded. Bingyu got up and stood beside Ling Ruoyi, her chin drooping, and there was still no expression on her face.

"So what do we do next?" Ling Yunfei asked.

Ling Ruoyi and King Qi looked at each other and smiled, and said in unison: "Knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, and lead the snake out of the hole." Although they were two simple words, none of them were stupid, and they understood what they meant when they heard it. After several people agreed on the strategy, King Qi and Ling Xiang received the emperor's order and rushed to the palace.

Ling Ruoyi returned to Fengyin Pavilion with Bingyu, and at first, a few maids looked at Bingyu and thought it was a young lady from which house, pouring tea and taking fruits, so they were not busy. Who knew that Bingyu had always been cold, and he was unmoved by the enthusiasm of Mu'er and the others, but said coldly: "You don't have to be polite, Bingyu was just sent by the prince to protect Miss Ling's safety, so you don't need to be so polite." After speaking, he walked to the courtyard with his sword, and sat alone at the stone table in the courtyard and wiped his sword, with a cold arrogance that was really compelling.

"Miss, look at her, why is this happening. Mu'er was also kind enough to give her those fruits, she was so arrogant because she was a person in the prince's mansion, and those who didn't know thought she was the master. ”

"That's right, miss, I don't know where she came from, isn't she the prince's concubine or a roommate?" Si Xia whispered in Ling Ruoxi's ear.

Who knew that Bingyu coldly put the sword into the scabbard, walked up to Ling Ruohui and said coldly: "Miss Ling, please rest assured, Bingyu's life was saved by the prince, and she has been the prince's slave and maid all her life. After saying that, he walked out with a long sword, leaving only the master and servant in the courtyard stunned.

In the early morning of the next day, as soon as the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion opened, several exclamations were heard, "Dead, dead." Ling Ruoxuan, who was still asleep, was also woken up by shouting, got dressed and walked quickly to the door to take a look, and couldn't help but take a few steps back in fright, only to see two men at the door, covered in blood, and two long swords piercing through the heart facing the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion and dying......
