Chapter 22, hugged by Shen Yuan

The dignified palace was in the water, and Han Muze immediately realized that something was wrong, turned around and quickly rushed to the most panicked place where the fire started.

Bai Qiurui thought of the conversation between the two men who had eavesdropped on her earlier, and quickly understood that there was a good chance that they had set this fire.

Hearing that there was a fire, the girls in the Lanyue Pavilion panicked. When Bai Qiurui and Xiao Mingyu rushed back, they saw Sui Hong looking for him everywhere.

"Where did you two go, someone set fire to the palace."

Sui Hong's face was solemn, and he directly protected Bai Qiurui and Xiao Mingyu in front of him: "Now don't run around, it's safe to follow me." ”

The girls around them have no masters, and many of them ran directly in the direction of the palace gate, and some of them sat on the ground in fright.

Bai Qiurui's expression was still calm, and Xiao Mingyu, who was following her, was timid, and kept pulling Sui Hong to ask what to do.

Bai Qiurui was silent for a moment, and then said: "I just accidentally saw people who infiltrated the palace with bad intentions, they Qiao Zhuang dressed up as the subordinates of the palace, and they put the fire eight achievements. ”

Sui Hong was taken aback, and looked Bai Qiurui up and down: "You have met more than one person who intends to do evil to the palace?" Are you hurt? ”

Bai Qiurui looked at Sui Hong staring at her in surprise, and she explained, "I heard their conversation by a hidden path next to the Lanyue Pavilion. As they left, I took a sneak peek. ”

After a pause, Bai Qiurui added: "It may really be related to the Qinglong Army case five years ago." ”

Sui Hong was surprised when she heard this: "Is it really related to the case of the Blue Dragon Army?" Unexpectedly, Brother Shen's guess was really accurate. ”

"Let's go check it out."

Bai Qiurui heard the movement in the southeast corner of the palace getting louder and louder, and she couldn't help but speak.

Before Sui Hong could speak, Xiao Mingyu was the first to object.

I saw a look of fear on her face, and she cowered and said, "Two sisters, now that is a dangerous place, let's not go over." ”

After speaking, Xiao Mingyu grabbed Bai Qiurui's sleeve again and whispered, "Sister, Cousin Yueyue still doesn't know what to do." Now that the palace is on fire, we ......"

After Xiao Mingyu's reminder, Bai Qiurui remembered that there was still Bai Yueyue falling into the water. She was so preoccupied with the case that she almost forgot.

Sui Hong was taken down with Bai Yueyue, and she should take Bai Qiurui and Xiao Mingyu to the courtyard of the mansion to find someone.

Now the palace is in chaos, and no one cares about Bai Qiurui and his party. The guards of the house all rushed to the place where the fire started, and the remaining maids hurried to their own places.

Bai Qiurui followed Sui Hong through the Lanyue Pavilion, bypassed the lotus pond, and turned into an elegant courtyard.

When the group arrived at the house where Bai Yueyue was, they saw that it was empty.

"What about people? I was in this room with her before......"

Bai Qiurui looked around, and saw that the clothes that Bai Yueyue was wearing in the morning were still on one end of the bed. I think she fell into the water, and someone helped her replace it.

At present, Bai Yueyue's clothes have been washed and folded neatly on the couch, but she is nowhere to be seen.

At this time, a little girl from the palace walked in, and when she saw Bai Qiurui and her party, she was stunned for a moment before she remembered to salute.

"Do you know where the girl in this house who was sent with me is now?"

Sui Hong recognized that this was the maid who had come to take care of herself and Bai Yueyue before, and asked when she asked.

However, I saw the girl say, "That young lady struggled to get up and leave when she was walking in the palace." ”

Let's go?

Xiao Mingyu seemed to understand something, and her voice was incredulous: "You said she was gone?" ”

Is this a direct disregard for the life and death of himself and Sister Qiurui, and he left?

Bai Qiurui frowned slightly, as soon as there was danger, she would go first, this was something that Bai Yueyue could do.

"Let's go to the yard where the fire started!"

Now that Bai Yueyue is gone alone, Bai Qiurui no longer cares about her, and goes straight to the courtyard where the fire started.

She intuitively felt that Shen Yuan might have known something about today's fire, and she originally thought that Sui Hong might have been sent by Shen Yuan to see her. Now she felt that maybe Shen Yuan had speculated that there was danger, so she let her come to her.

Seeing that Bai Qiurui was the first to turn around and go out, Sui Hong didn't say anything, and raised his heels. Xiao Mingyu hesitated in place for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and followed.

Bai Qiurui looked at the place where the fire started, vaguely the study of Prince Ning who had just entered the palace and was taken by by the housekeeper.

A few people walked along the bluestone paved path, getting closer and closer to the noisy and noisy place, and just when Bai Qiurui was about to turn into a corridor, something happened abruptly.

She saw a black shadow in front of her swaying suddenly, and Sui Hong, who was following her, exclaimed.

"Be careful!"

In the flash of light, a line of cold light flashed in front of Bai Qiurui's eyes, and her clear and translucent eyes saw a snow-bright dagger swinging towards her.

Almost instantly, facing the moment of death, Bai Qiurui subconsciously stopped and stepped back. At the same time, Sui Hong stepped forward by mistake and grabbed the stabbing dagger with his hand.

Bai Qiurui retreated in a panic, and the gap under her feet happened to be stepping on the bluestone slab, only to feel a sudden sharp pain in her ankle, and she couldn't help but hum in pain.

He tilted his body and sat down on the ground.

Looking up again, Sui Hong had already snatched the dagger from the hand of a man dressed in gray, and had already subdued the other party at this moment.

"Sister Qiurui, are you okay?"

Xiao Mingyu hurriedly squatted down to check Bai Qiurui's condition.

I saw that Bai Qiurui's face was pale at the moment, her expression was painful, and the pain in her right ankle made her break out in a cold sweat.

"It's okay...... Maybe it's a twisted foot. Bai Qiurui endured the pain and reluctantly spoke.

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a sound of footsteps hurrying in his direction.

"Quick, he's running over there, catch him!"

In the next second, a team of people wearing the uniforms of the guards of the Ministry of Punishment appeared in front of them. They looked at the murderous man who couldn't move at Sui Hong's feet, and they were all stunned.

One of the leading men was surprised: "Miss Sui? Are you in the palace too? ”

Several of the guards are all from the Criminal Department, Sui Hong and Gu Yi are friends of Shen Yuan, and everyone knows each other when they often come in and out.

"A few adults have just arrived, this man was just about to commit murder, and now he has been subdued, and you have to take him down."

Sui Hong clenched his fists at several people, and then several guards glanced at each other and stepped forward to tie up the man on the ground.

Bai Qiurui watched Sui Hong meet the people from the Criminal Department, and naturally understood that she was indeed invited by Shen Yuan.

Now, the people from the Criminal Department are already in the palace. So, is Shen Yuan here too?

was thinking about it, Sui Hong had already opened her mouth for Bai Qiurui and asked, "A few adults are here, is Brother Shen also in the palace?" ”

After receiving an affirmative answer, Sui Hong looked quite happy, she saw that Bai Qiurui had been squatting on the ground and covering her ankles, and she also squatted down to check.

Several guards caught the murderer and wanted to go back to recover his life, Sui Hong asked a few people to tell Shen Yuan about Bai Qiurui's injury.

This time, it was not even time for a cup of tea, Shen Yuan arrived with a few guards, and he immediately moved his gaze to Bai Qiurui, who was squatting aside.

Xiao Mingyu has been supporting Bai Qiurui, and Sui Hong can't intervene beside her.

After hurriedly saying hello to Sui Hong, Shen Yuan leaned over to check on Bai Qiurui's situation.

It wasn't until he squatted beside Bai Qiurui at close range that he suddenly noticed that the body of this little woman with her head down was trembling slightly. The pale little face, the teeth were biting the lip flap, and a layer of fine beads of sweat had oozed from the forehead.

"But you twisted your foot?"

Shen Yuan's cold and pleasant voice remembered in his ears, Bai Qiurui just raised his eyes, and saw the other party's eyes as faint as an ancient well at close range.

Xiao Mingyu found that the Lord Shen that Sui Hong was talking about turned out to be the prince he met in front of the palace now, and he couldn't help but move slightly. A hint of shyness appeared in his eyes, and he secretly looked at Shen Yuan.

There were outsiders present, and Bai Qiurui didn't say anything, so she could only nod silently and answer.

Shen Yuan roughly understood the whole story from Sui Hong's mouth, he saw that Bai Qiurui was silent, and looked at her so uncomfortable, thinking that she was in great pain and couldn't speak.

He no longer cared about red tape at the moment, and directly reached out and hugged the person in his arms.

Bai Qiurui only felt that her body suddenly took off, and her body was surrounded by a cold fragrance, and she fell into a strong and calm embrace.

In front of the public, Bai Qiurui just wanted to say that there is a difference between men and women. But in the cold hanging state of the ankle, it involved pain.

She didn't say a word when she opened her mouth, but she snorted in pain.

After being picked up by Shen Yuan, the air around her seemed to freeze, and Bai Qiurui could only hear several subtle gasping sounds.

The hug was already hugged, Bai Qiurui didn't dare to look at the reactions of the people around her, she simply pretended to be dead in Shen Yuan's arms.

Shen Yuan's orderly voice came from close range in his ears, roughly saying that the murderer in the palace had been caught, and ordered several other guards to stay and finish.

Listening to the meaning of the words, Bai Qiurui learned that King Ning and the princess were not injured, and then she was carried by Shen Yuan towards the gate of the palace.

Shen Yuan walked neatly, leaving a handful of stunned subordinates, only to feel that the adults who had never been close to women seemed to have changed people, so they picked up the girl and left without saying a word.

When he arrived at the door, Shen Yuan lowered his head and asked the person in his arms, "Where is the coachman who sent you now?" ”

Hearing this, Bai Qiurui opened her eyes, she remembered that Bai Yueyue left alone, and her eyes darkened: "Coachman...... has already carried the little girl's sister back home first. ”

Xiao Mingyu looked sad, she looked at the empty sides of the palace, and secretly complained in her heart why Bai Yueyue left them.

Shen Yuan understood the meaning of Bai Qiurui's words, and he frowned a little dissatisfied. Then he ordered the guards behind him to find a carriage to come over.

He looked at Bai Qiurui's face was pale, his eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his face, which had always been cold and indifferent, rarely changed.

When the carriage was found, Shen Yuan directly carried Bai Qiurui into the carriage.

"Lord Shen, you let me down, I can ...... myself"

is so lonely and widowed alone, and she is still being held by others, Bai Qiurui feels that it is really unspeakable.

The guards of the Criminal Department found two carriages, Shen Yuan and Bai Qiurui took one together, and the rest was Xiao Mingyu alone.

Shen Yuan looked at Bai Qiuruidai's brows furrowed, enduring the pain in her feet, it seemed that it was because he was holding her, so a blush appeared on her pale face.

"Your feet may not just be twisted, it looks like the joints are misaligned, and it's best not to move."

When Bai Qiurui heard Shen Yuan say this, she had to endure the embarrassment and stay obediently and didn't dare to move.

But......

My ankle really hurts......
