The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort - 142. Cover Xiao Shao

When the rooster crowed to the east, the young man on the couch arranged his clothes and stood up. After a night of rest, coupled with Xiao Shao’s own recovery ability is better than ordinary people, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it right now. Outside Jin San leaped in from the window, still worried about his injury, he hesitantly asked: “Master…”

Xiao Shao waved his hand, Jin San closed his mouth and thought for a while, then said: “Ms. Jiang is awake, she is outside the house.”

After Jin San left, Xiao Shao looked around. The time was rushed yesterday, and he didn’t notice anything. Now when he woke up, the whole room seemed to be lingering with a faint fragrance. By this time, he was realizing that it was indeed A girl’s boudoir.

Since Xiao Shao took over Jin Yiwei, he has received various tasks. It is not that he has never seen a woman’s boudoir, but in his heart it is just an ordinary place, no different from a garden lake, but today It was the first time to realize the difference, so Uncle Xiao Shaoxiao, who never wasted time on boring things, looked around a woman’s boudoir seriously for the first time.

Although it is a boudoir, it does not look like a boudoir. It is different from other women. There are no flowers, no flowers, no gorgeous and bright screen curtains, and no exquisite and beautiful decorations. For a young girl who was just getting ready, it seemed too bitter. Even as a man, Mo Cong looked more refined than Jiang Ruan in that room.

Xiao Shao also heard about the miserable things Jiang Ruan had sent to Zhuangzi by Jiang Quan. But the black and gloomy color was a bit unusual.

Jiang’s eldest daughter usually wears red most, and her face is charming and charming. She looks at her enthusiasm like a red fox, but she is cold and cold like a green snake. Looking around the room, the colors are mostly dark black, and no ordinary woman likes black. Xiao Shao himself liked black color, because he was cold-tempered and he matured earlier than his peers, but Jiang Ruan was just a young girl, Xiao Shao was a little startled, as if he could see Jiang Ruan through these dim colors. A deep secret in my heart.

There was also a stack of books on the desk. Xiao Shao flipped through it at will, but it was some Jin Dynasty laws and military books. Most of the rigid things were seen by older people, but the military books were turned over. Huang, obviously the owner often reads. Not only that, Xiao Shao also discovered that these law books are not only up-to-date, they are also collected years and decades ago, and I don’t know what Jiang Ruan is doing.

He stood quietly on the spot, looked down and thought for a while, then looked away and walked out the door slowly.

In the outbuilding, Jiang Ruan was sitting in front of the window, but the book on the table was not opened. She was resting her chin in one hand, looking out the window in a daze. She didn’t know what to think, but her expression was a bit chilly.

Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Ruan turned around and saw Xiao Shao coming and asked: “Why don’t you rest more?”

Ruan Ju is now considered an iron fence in Jiang’s Mansion. No one dares to manage to come here. Jiang Ruan doesn’t like to be too discreet. The maid-in-law is usually more tired and lazy than the people in other yards. At this hour, she wakes up. Some of Ruan Juli’s maidservants have not yet woken up.

Xiao Shao was also a little puzzled, but just after the rooster cried, Jiang Ruan looked like this a long time ago. His eyes fell under the faint blackness of Jiang Ruan’s eyes, and he knew that he was a little apologetic. You’ve worked hard.”

Bai Zhi, who was on the side of his teaching, almost couldn’t help but laughed out of nowhere. He lowered his head to find a reason and quickly retreated to make room for Jiang Ruan and Xiao Shao to speak.

Jiang Ruan nodded, she was asleep, in fact, since she was born again, although she looked calm and indifferent, but at night, the nightmare of the previous life was lingering, and once she was awakened by the nightmare in the middle of the night, she would never can not fall asleep. If there is something in your mind, sleep more shallowly.

Xiao Shao suddenly appeared last night. After she settled down, she went to the outhouse. With a lot of thoughts in her mind, she became less sleepy. If Bai Zhi and Lian Qiao hadn’t persuaded them in the end, they wouldn’t be able to sleep for a few hours.

Xiao Shao sat down opposite Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan’s eyes fell on his chest and said, “Is the injury healed?”

Xiao Shao nodded: “I’ll leave later.”

“Don’t be so impatient,” Jiang Ruan looked at him and said: “It’s never too late to leave with a bowl of brown sugar water.”

Speaking of brown sugar water, Xiao Shao’s expression became a little stiff, and he didn’t know the effect of that brown sugar water. Jiang Ruan drank brown sugar water because of sunflower water these days, but he was a good man who drank the brown sugar water. If it spreads to Jin Yiwei’s ears, how will he be convinced in the future?

Looking at his unnatural appearance, Jiang Ruan felt a little funny. He turned the topic off and said, “How many more days will I have to stay in Beijing this time?”

Hearing this, Xiao Shao’s expression became serious. Seeing him like this, Jiang Ruan understood a little in his heart. Just listen to Xiao Shao said: “Because Beijing is not peaceful lately, you should be more careful at the mansion. If something happens, use the whistle I gave you.”

Jiang Ruan stared at him: “Nanjiang people are going to do it?”

Xiao Shao was surprised. This was a secret in the palace. Even if ordinary women knew about it, they would not think about other things. But Jiang Ruan seemed to be very sensitive to these things. He looked at Jiang Ruan unconsciously. Praise: “Yes.”

“I know.” Jiang Ruan didn’t say much, paused, and then said: “You are already the target of the public. Since the people of Nanjiang are rampant in Beijing, most of them will be directed at you, so pay attention.”

In the previous life, the name of Jinying King Xiao Shao often seemed to be linked to southern Xinjiang. When the first emperor of the previous life was poisoned to death and Xuanli took the throne, Xiao Shao was also in southern Xinjiang. return. If Xiao Shao was still in the capital at the beginning, then I don’t know how the situation developed. Thinking of this, Jiang Ruan was a little stunned for a while. When she noticed Xiao Shao’s gaze, she calmed down a bit. Although she didn’t know the specific reason, she felt that there was something unclear between Xiao Shao and Nanjiang. origin. I don’t know if it is a family feud, or there are other reasons. In short, Xiao Shao always brings a touch of hostility to Nanjiang people. That layer of hostility is very weak, but because Jiang Ruan is a person who has died once, he understands that feeling very clearly.

Xiao Shao bent the corners of his mouth, his eyes softened, and said: “Okay.” After a moment of silence, he said again: “Xia Family, what are you going to do? Do you want me to help you?”

After Jiang Ruan left yesterday, Tianzhu went to the house and explained what happened in Jiang’s mansion these days. Xiao Shao felt very unhappy when he heard Yu Ya’s design framed Zhao Feizhou. These people were like flies, and it was annoying to surround them all the time. If Jiang Ruan agreed, he could think of a way to wipe out the Xia Mansion and eliminate the troubles forever.

“No, I have a way.” Jiang Ruan said. There is no need to fake things like revenge, and if it really kills them as cleanly as Xiao Shao did, wouldn’t it be cheaper for them.

Xiao Shao didn’t insist on seeing her like this, but said, “Okay.”

The two said something more, something that had nothing to do with Fengyue. The Dewdrop who was peeking through the window at Zhijiao heard it so he wanted to hit the wall. But at this moment, Bai Zhi hurriedly opened the door and said anxiously: “Girl, the four girls are coming to the courtyard.”

At such an early time, and Jiang Dan would never come to Ruan Juli on weekdays. It is suspicious to behave like this now. Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: “Since she is so concerned about me, she also heard some wind when she wanted to come last night. At this moment, she is coming non-stop, she wants to block all the way out.”

She looked at Xiao Shao: “I’m afraid you won’t be able to leave right now.”

Xiao Shao stood up and said, “I will go out now.”

“Why,” Jiang Ruan smiled: “My fourth sister, looking at the mountains and dews, and a delicate flower, what I have done will surprise you.”

“If you find out that I am here, it will hurt your reputation.” Xiao Shao pursed her lips. He knew what reputation meant to his daughter’s family. Moreover, Jiang Ruan is now the lord of Hong’an County, with so many eyes staring at her inside and out. If something happens, the people’s spit stars can drown her.

“Do you really think my fourth sister is just trying to tarnish my reputation?” Jiang Ruan smiled and shook his head: “I’m afraid that the person who harmed you last night will also find someone to search for people. I think about it, it should be an assassin. You guessed it right, Jiang Dan should have suspected my courtyard last night. At this moment, Jiang’s mansion is probably already several floors inside and outside, just waiting for you to go out. And I, hiding the assassin, had an affair with the assassin The charges are much more serious.”

Because of the relationship with the Queen Mother Yide, if you say that you have a relationship with an ordinary man, you can still justify one or two, but if you have a relationship with an assassin, the people can tolerate it, and the royal family can’t tolerate it. The person who set up the game and Jiang Dan just cooperated, thinking that Xiao Shao was seriously injured, and as soon as he went out, he would be forced to kidnap himself without waiting for him to reveal his identity. I don’t know whether it is too naive or stupid.

Xiao Shao frowned. She had never thought so much last night, and she didn’t know that even a concubine in this mansion was so complicated in her mind. She wanted to target Jiang Ruan and Death Land. Silk pity. He paused and looked down: “Then I will force you out now to prove that you have nothing to do with this matter.”

“It might as well go out and kill all those people.” Jiang Ruan said.

Xiao Shao was taken aback. It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought about it. It’s just that killing someone at the gate of Jiang’s mansion might cause a lot of trouble in the future. It’s not the other thing, but that some things can’t be exposed for the time being, so as not to be stunned.

Jiang Ruan patted his arm: “Don’t worry, since I dared to keep you last night, I was already prepared.”

Xiao Shao stared at her and felt more guilty for her now. He didn’t expect to cause Jiang Ruan to be troubled by the momentary recklessness. He has ten thousand ways to get out, but they are not safe enough, and it is inevitable to leave a handle, which will also cause trouble for Jiang Ruan in the future. Hearing what Jiang Ruan said at this moment, thinking that she had a good way, immediately listened to the ears.

Jiang Ruan walked to the soft couch in his inner room and lifted the thick mattress, revealing the thick and heavy bedboard inside. She stretched out her hand and patted the bed board, and fumbled along the edge of the bed board. She touched the bed board that looked intact and no gaps. A crack appeared in the corner of the bed board. She lifted it down and lifted the board. Yan Yanshi was opened, revealing a small iron door with a small lock on it.

Jiang Ruan took out a small silver key from the foot of the bed on the other side, opened the iron lock, lifted the iron plate up, and said to him: “Go in.”

Surprisingly, it is a small secret road.

“It’s not a secret way.” Seeing Xiao Shao’s stunned look, Jiang Ruan explained: “I don’t have that great ability, just a storage room. You go in and stay for a while.”

This storage room has been done bit by bit since she returned to the house. When she was in the palace in her previous life, she was lucky to have seen a nobleman do it like this, but she dug a secret tunnel. Jiang’s Mansion was embarrassed on all sides, and it was inevitable that someone would turn over her house while she was away. Although she would not leave anything behind, only this warehouse could occasionally come to emergency.

Xiao Shao was also taken aback by Jiang Ruan’s sudden entry. He only listened to Bai Zhi’s urging voice. He didn’t hesitate at the moment, and immediately jumped in. Jiang Ruan restored the bedboard to its original appearance. Put down the tent.

Forsythia’s voice was a little anxious: “Miss Si, the girl is not awake yet, wait for the girl to freshen up and come out again, her makeup is still unrefined…”

“They are all my own sisters,” Jiang Dan’s voice came from a distance, still as soft as usual, but when he listened carefully, there was a bit of unrevealed joy.

Forsythia’s anxious appearance fell in Jiang Dan’s eyes, and he felt confident again in his heart. Last night, the maid beside her went to pour water, and in the middle of the night, she saw Ruan Juli Forsythia hurried out next door, but walked like a small kitchen. I followed all the way with some curiosity, but I heard that Forsythia told the small kitchen to make a bowl of brown sugar water.

This is nothing strange. Jiang Ruan came to sunflower water, and it was good to drink a bowl of brown sugar water to raise his body in the middle of the night. It is curious that not only this is the case, Bai Zhi also makes people go and fetch hot water over. The maid thought that Jiang Ruan was going to wash his body in the middle of the night, and she also unintentionally said to Jiang Dan when she turned her head. Jiang Dan is somewhat distracted. Jiang Ruan has never been troublesome, and he has never been upset because of the coming of Kui Shui. It is too much work for a few maids in the middle of the night. She left her eyes on her and let people go and check it. Sure enough, she bought through Ruan Juli’s wife who was sweeping the door, and learned that Bai Zhi poured out a basin of water, and the water still smelled of blood.

Jiang Dan intuitively felt that there must be some reason for this. It happened that her personal servant Yu’er had an older brother on duty at the porter. When I turned back in the evening, I ran into the porter’s servant, saying that it was the gate leader Yan Dongzheng in the capital. Centaur catches the assassin. Just like Taigu initiating, Jiang Dan had a guess in his heart right now, fearing that the assassin was in Jiang Ruan’s house right now.

Although I don’t know why Jiang Ruan wanted to rescue the assassin, the brown sugar water and clear water should be prepared for that moment. Jiang Dan himself guessed that he was threatening Jiang Ruan to do so, but for Jiang Dan, it was a hard-won opportunity. Jiang Ruanan was very disturbed in her heart in one day. There is a chance to be delivered to the door right now. Is there any reason to use it? The idea came up in my heart right now.

Only Jiang Dan has always been a calm person, and he is even more reluctant to stun Jiang Ruan right now, and it will take a while to find the city gate leader. If anything happens to this, the assassin has fled, Zhu The basket to catch the water also caused the city gate to be unhappy. After thinking about it, Jiang Dan decided not to say anything for the time being, and fell in his anger, waiting until dawn to make plans.

She only secretly sent someone to quietly and inadvertently “remind” the city gate leader that someone seemed to have seen the assassin near Jiang’s house. The city gate leader is not stupid, Yan Dong has no official documents approved by the government, and he knows that he is wrong, and cannot enter the Jiang family’s house at will to get people. Moreover, Jiang Quan’s grade is much higher than him. Even so, he can wait at the gate of Jiang’s mansion to catch turtles in an urn.

If it were the usual, these things would have been unsuccessful. But it happened that Xiao Shao had injuries last night, and the two went out of the house to do what Xiao Shao confessed. Tian Zhu was busy battling Jiang Ruan, but the person who taught Jiang Dan took advantage of the loophole. The porter stayed all night and saw no one coming out of Jiang Ruan’s yard, and became more determined that the assassin was still in Jiang Ruan’s house.

Jiang Dan felt happy for a while, hiding the assassin, hiding the assassin in his boudoir. Even the Queen Mother Yide could not protect Jiang Ruan, and she could not accept her jade disc, but Jiang Ruan, whose reputation was ruined, would be destroyed in the future. What’s the future?

Thinking of this, she moved faster. When she came to the door of Jiang Ruan’s house, she took the lead in raising the curtain without waiting for Tianzhu to talk to Dewdrop, and said with a smile: “Big sister.”

The room was extremely quiet, the corners of the copper deer mouth with the unique shape of the table corners slowly exhaled the bitter fragrance of Du Ruo, and the dark gray-colored tent was gently swayed, and the silhouette of the woman was faintly visible in it.

Jiang Dan’s gaze swept over the incense, and the corners of his lips hooked unconsciously. Everyone knew that Jiang Ruan didn’t like to use incense the most. The incense Ruan Curie distributed every month is unnecessary. Today, I used Du Ruo’s scent for an unprecedented time. The purpose is obvious. What is it that is not to cover up the blood?

Thinking like this, Jiang Dan walked a few steps inward again: “Big sister?”

“Fourth Miss,” Dewdrop stopped her: “The girl is still resting. She was upset yesterday. She got up late today.”

Jiang Dan laughed: “What kind of joke is this? Just now Forsythia can be said that the big sister has woken up, but she hasn’t dressed her makeup yet. Why is she lying down again at this time? Couldn’t it be that Danniang is not welcome? “She said that she wanted to move forward again, with the dewdrops in front of her. Jiang Dan smiled, and Yu’er grabbed the dewdrops with great strength, and said with a smile: “The eldest girl and the fourth girl are sisters, it’s difficult. If you don’t succeed, you still need to be angry at such trivial things?”

“That’s the reason.” Jiang Dan had already walked to the edge of Jiang Ruan when he said this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he immediately reached out to lift the dark tent.

The dark tent was opened, revealing the scene inside, each of the four corners hung a delicate flower sac, the fragrance was rich, Jiang Ruan was lying on the couch, only the light-colored inner appreciation, and his temples were slightly chaotic. , Rest with eyes closed.

Hearing the movement, she opened her eyes and stared at Jiang Dan with a pair of black and white eyes. The water was like a spring in the mountains, but there was an inexplicable deep meaning flowing.

Jiang Ruan’s voice was slightly cold: “The Fourth Sister really doesn’t regard herself as an outsider, and I dare to open up my account at will.”

Jiang Dan stood there blankly, his eyes widened in disbelief, only to see that the tent was empty, apart from Jiang Ruan, where is there anything else?
