Everyone dispersed, the prince glanced at Yan Zheng before leaving, Yan Zheng refused to send him out of the palace before leaving the palace, and as soon as the waiter left, he turned around and entered the imperial garden.

Xiao Yi was already waiting, he stood with his hands behind his back, and when he saw Yan Zheng coming, he blurted out and asked, "What's the matter, how did Berlin agree to identify Pei Jing." ”

Yan Zheng bowed, rolled his eyes, and then replied: "Your Highness, forgive me!" ”

After Berlin was arrested by Xiao Yuran, he tried his best to keep Berlin's mouth very hard, and he always refused to hold out Pei Jing, seeing that Yan Zheng was sued, Xiao Yuran asked Berlin to pull out Berlin's tongue to prevent him from talking nonsense in front of the palace, and lightly wrote a confession and closed Berlin to sign and detain.

He looked as usual in the main hall, and it was also because Xiao Yuran threatened Pei Jing's life that Berlin confessed.

Berlin aided in the abuse, and it was already open to the net if he didn't want his life, but this matter was full of loopholes, in case the emperor saw the clues, Xiao Yuran and Yan Zheng couldn't escape.

Xiao Yi grimaced, pondered for a moment, and said: "You are really risky this time, it is the lonely wife who indulges you, immediately pack up your things and go to Jinzhou, don't stay in the capital and wait for those old immortals to join you." ”

"Your Highness, the minister has a reluctant request!" Yan Zheng's eyes were deep, but they glowed with an unusually solemn light.

"The minister wants to take the county lord away!"

"You're crazy!" Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked at him angrily, pointed to a certain place and shouted: "Ruan Mingjiao is about to marry Pei Jing, you kidnap her now, what crime do you know?" ”

"Your Highness, the minister has a lot of infamy, and he is not afraid of this, so I ask His Highness to fulfill it!"

Yan Zheng slammed solemnly on the ground, he was so out of control and firm, but Xiao Yi was not good at saying anything.

When Ruan Mingjiao knew the news, it was already the morning of the second day, she was in a bad mood, Ruan Qingshan didn't tell her these troubles, it was Mrs. Juyu Jihou who came to Shoufu's door to ask to see her.

"What did she do to me?" Ruan Mingjiao was stunned, she didn't want to see any of them now.

Yuan Ying was stunned for a moment, and he stopped talking, he heard the news outside, but he didn't know whether to tell Ruan Mingjiao or not.

Ruan Mingjiao looked at him with a wrong look, knowing what he was hiding, frowned, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yuan Ying was stunned, and finally told in Ruan Mingjiao's half-threatening and half-anxious eyes, and told how Yan Zheng beat Wudu Hou and others that day and their family members into the palace to complain, Yan Zheng escorted a few witnesses to His Majesty, and told that the assassin who assassinated Ruan Mingjiao was Pei Jing's person.

Ruan Mingjiao was stunned, and her originally cold eyes were stained with a touch of indignation. Dressed in plain clothes, she originally looked cold and pitiful, and her hair was simply hanging to the side, gentle and lovely.

His face was angry, his hand slapped the table, he didn't want to be too excited, and the next moment his heart hurt again, showing even more pity. Her brows were tightly locked, frowning, her eyes that were originally bright as a galaxy were eclipsed, and she was swallowed up by discomfort: "His face is really not red when he sues the false complaint, his heart is not beating, and he dares to lie about the assassin, if His Majesty finds out, he!" ”

As soon as she was excited, her heart was so stirred that she couldn't speak, her chest was turbulent, and she was in pain, and she couldn't stop coughing, Songbao hurriedly patted her on the back and poured tea.

"Miss, don't worry, the imperial doctor said that your injury has not healed, you can't be in a hurry, otherwise I am afraid that the old disease in my heart will be committed again."

Ruan Mingjiao shook her head, took a few sips of tea, and then felt better, turned to look at Yuan Ying, and ordered: "Back to Mrs. Yuhou, I will go to see Yan Zheng, so that she doesn't have to wait." Songbao, change my clothes. ”

Song Bao wanted to persuade her, the last time she went to Yan Mansion, Ruan Mingjiao was lifeless, it was like she was sick, and now she was going to see Yan Zheng again, she was uneasy but was pulled by Yuan Ying, shook her head at her and then retreated.

The errand to Ningzhou has been issued, the commander of the forbidden army guard has taken people to go ahead for two days, Yan Zheng has been delayed for two days because of this matter, but now he can't, go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and order the errand to turn back to Yanfu to pack up his things, ready to catch up with the forbidden army and guard.

Congfeng hurriedly stepped in from outside the gardenia courtyard, blocked his way, bent over and carried his breath, pointed out the door, panting and said: "Master, Ping, the county lord of Pingyang said outside the door that he wanted to see you." ”

Yan Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his eyes to look out of the door, and his dark and unknown eyes suddenly appeared bright, as dazzling as stars.

When Ruan Mingjiao came in, she was invited into the study and was the same as the last time she came, but the painting had already been put away.

The furnishings in the room are simple, she didn't see it clearly last time, there is a bookshelf on one side, directly above is the place where guests are received, and on the other side is a good pear blossom wood desk, which is obviously Yan Zheng's usual office.

Yan Zheng was facing her, and when he realized that she had come in, he turned around, wearing a navy blue dark pattern robe, his figure was tall, and the whole person was shrouded in a dull atmosphere, and the handsome face had no emotion, and his eyes were as dark as obsidian staring at her.

Ruan Mingjiao summoned her breath calmly and tried her best to speak to him in a calm tone: "You caught Pei Jing?" Or in the name of the Assassin, this is a deception, you know? Yan Zheng, don't be confused! ”

Although she is taller than the average woman, compared to Yan Zheng's eight-foot height, the height advantage is gone, only at the shoulders.

She is thin and thin, and a long dress of silk and satin makes her a little more delicate, and her little face without powder is still white and seems to be glowing. Zhu Li's lips were light, his expression was sincere, his tone was calm, and Yan Zheng panicked with a good look, he originally wanted to speak well, but when he said it, it was like a thorn.

"What, the county lord is here to intercede for your good brother?" He said with a sneer, and raised the corners of his lips with a hint of disdain: "The county lord doesn't let the subordinate officials meddle in my affairs, but now he comes to meddle in my affairs, how can there be such a reason in the world?" ”

His words were intense, with a bit of yin and yang weirdness, pressing step by step. Ruan Mingjiao suppressed the annoyance in her heart, "Yan Zheng, you don't want to be yin and yang, you annoy me, I know that you know that the assassin was not done by Pei Jing, but you beat him and the son of a minister who is quite prestigious in the court on the street, do you know what is being rumored about you outside?" ”

She pointed to the door and continued: "They say that you Yan Zheng has no king's law, beating the powerful and close relatives and princes, once you are investigated by someone with a heart, you will know that you falsely accused Pei Jing, have you ever thought about the consequences, Mrs. Yuhou's husband died on the battlefield, and the court and the central government have already attached great importance to the Yuhou family, and now you have beaten Pei Jing and put such a charge on him, how many people are waiting for you to show your handle and give you a fatal blow!" ”

"Ruan Mingjiao, it's really hard for you, for Pei Jing to come to Yanfu to intercede for him, you treat your lover brother very well, with how he deceives and uses you, you have always been so kind to him, even if you are extremely disgusted with me, you can come to me to intercede for him, you are all like this to other people, but you are cruel to me. Ruan Mingjiao, should I praise you for being innocent and kind, or should I scold you for being ruthless! ”

He wasn't interested in what she said, and he didn't care how others waited for him to fall off the horse, but Ruan Mingjiao's attitude towards him and Pei Jing's attitude made him feel unbearably angry in his heart.

Ruan Mingjiao looked at the gloomy color in his eyes, and panicked inexplicably, "Hmph, Yan Zheng, you won't be surprised by the county lord's attitude towards Pei Jing, and play a child's temper here, so you target Pei Jing?" Yan Zheng, you might as well do a little more, kill me directly that night, and then frame him to Pei Jing, and then arrest him to ask for credit in front of Your Majesty, the prince and even my father, why don't you do this! ”

"What did you say!" Yan Zheng grabbed her wrist and pulled the distance between the two, the black eyes as black as obsidian were obviously angry, because of the annoyance, the chest rose and fell violently, staring at the person in front of him.

He moved too much, holding Ruan Mingjiao's hand with a slight force, Ruan Mingjiao hissed as if in pain, frowning slightly, but he endured it without struggling.

Yan Zheng's eyes were stunned, and he turned his head to look at the hand he was holding for a while, his eyes flashed a trace of gloom, remembering that Ruan Mingjiao blocked the blow for him before, the movements in his hand suddenly became light, but the words he said were still unrelenting, and he said in a deep voice: "For the sake of a Pei Jing, you are willing to do this, Ruan Mingjiao I really underestimated you!" Do you want me to let Pei Jing go? ”

He said and let go of Ruan Mingjiao, turned around and took a dagger on the desk behind him, pulled out the dagger, took Ruan Mingjiao's hand, put the dagger in her hand and held her hand against his chest, "Come on, don't you hate me very much, I will give you a chance to take revenge today, as long as you are so cruel to me, I will immediately let Pei Jing go, and personally go to His Majesty to ask for guilt, saying that I falsely accused the Marquis of Wudu and begged Your Majesty to give me the death penalty!" ”

Ruan Mingjiao looked at the hand being pulled, the dagger was extremely sharp, and the cold light shining in the sun was extremely dazzling, because the two of them pulled Yan Zheng's neck and chest, her eyes were frightened, and she shouted while struggling: "Yan Zheng, you let go, you are crazy!" ”

"I'm crazy!" The more he talked, the more excited he became, his eyes were scarlet, as if he had played enough of the trick of you fighting for me, and directly grabbed Ruan Mingjiao's hand with both hands against his heart, but his vicious appearance was a little stubborn, looking like a child who begged his parents for candy to no avail and cried.

"Ruan Mingjiao, you have never been soft on me in the past, I want to see how cruel you can be to me, come, just like you stabbed Yan Shi'an on the main hall!"

As he spoke, he was about to hold Ruan Mingjiao's hand and poke the dagger into it for a few minutes, Ruan Mingjiao snorted softly, afraid of hurting his struggle, and broke free from Yan Zheng's hand, the dagger fell in response, and a crisp sound sounded on the ground.

"Smack!"

"Yan Zheng, you're a madman!"

Ruan Mingjiao waved her hand, and she slapped Yan Zheng on the face, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and after the beating, she felt weak and weak, shortness of breath and even a little lack of oxygen, and the pain in her heart was like ten thousand ants devouring her heart, so painful that she couldn't stand firmly and paralyzed on the table next to her, leaning on the corner of the table, and her hand was rubbing the clothes in her heart.

Yan Zheng finally regained some of her senses after being beaten by this palm, and she really wanted to refute a madman, but she saw Ruan Mingjiao like a willow branch that had been pulled off the silk, and the whole person was paralyzed and fell to the ground.

The originally smooth and unclean forehead was washed in a moment, and a lot of sweat oozed out of it, Yan Zheng's body was stunned, and the fog at the bottom of his eyes was stained with a layer of panic, and he immediately squatted down to check Ruan Mingjiao's situation.

The person in her arms had already lost her mind, Yan Zheng held her hand and couldn't help trembling, "From the wind, call the imperial doctor!" ”

He ran out of the door in a panic with the thin man in his arms, but there were six gods in his heart, he was just so jealous, he couldn't understand that she treated everyone well, but he kept a cold face to himself, he was betting on whether Ruan Mingjiao would hurt him for Pei Jing.

He should have hated Ruan Mingjiao as much as he hated himself, and he also hated Ruan Mingjiao very much, wishing that she would die, but now he is inexplicably greedy for her smiling face, even once.

He told himself over and over again that it was because of the prince's plan that he had to let go of his resentment, but he still told himself that the completion of the plan was Ruan Mingjiao's death, but he didn't know when he was soft-hearted towards Ruan Mingjiao because of his contact and encounter, and he didn't want her to die in front of him.

But the breath of the person in his arms was unstable, his eyes were confined and the whole person was lifeless, but he was flustered and trembling, afraid that she would die, and he would never see her again, and he would not hate her. So I had to pray over and over again that Ruan Mingjiao was fine, as long as she was okay, even if she hated herself and hated herself, he would also hate her, and hate her for returning the pain she had inflicted on herself.
