love poison

These days the bandits outside the pass started to stir again, and the herdsmen saw small groups of bandits patrolling the border of Dasheng several times.Rong Hua guessed that this group of mobs probably elected a new leader, and they might attack again at some point.

This is not a trivial matter, Rong Hua dare not relax, and even temporarily put staring at Xin Mu as a secondary priority.He didn't find anything wrong with Xin Mu at all, he was silent and cold as usual, so he tried his best to hang around in front of Xin Mu as usual.He never touched Xin Mu again, and he rarely had physical contact with Xin Mu.

But whenever he touched a little bit, Xin Mu would look at him with that disgusting look, he really couldn't accept it.

Rong Hua regretted it all the time, and he also thought that maybe letting go was the right thing to do, but now he really can't do it, just the idea of ​​letting go makes Rong Hua feel extremely painful, let alone the truth. Let him let Xin Mu go.

They tortured each other like this, and they didn't know when it was the head.

In the past three days, a small incident happened. A servant girl and a guard in the Duke of Yue's mansion had an affair and eloped. There was a lot of trouble in the mansion, and even Xin Mu, who never left the gate, knew about it.But although the trouble was big, Rong Hua didn't care about this insignificant person at all. He just deducted the monthly money from the steward and the chief guard of the mansion and let it go. No one cared.

Day three.

In the evening, when Min'er came to serve Xin Mu for dinner, she told Xin Mu that everything was ready, and told Xin Mu to stay up at night and wait for him.

Xin Mu didn't fall asleep, but after waiting for a long time, Min'er never showed up, and when it was about to get ugly, Min'er didn't come either.

Just as he was waiting, the door creaked softly. Xin Mu sat up from the bed and saw a figure quietly entered his room. the man.

After the man approached, Xin Mu suddenly realized that the person who came was not Min Er, but Rong Hua.

Rong Hua didn't expect that Xin Mu was still awake at this time. He had just returned from the barracks, and he didn't want to disturb Xin Mu at first, but just wanted to come and see him. Sit down in front of the bed.

Xin Mu tensed up and looked at him with some guard.

Rong Hua originally thought that being rejected too many times would make his heart numb, but he didn't expect that every time he was rejected, he would still feel like being stabbed in the heart.

Rong Hua sat down on the edge of the bed and talked to Xin Mu, "Why are you still up so late? What are you thinking?"

Xin Mu thought, it's almost time to be ugly, if Min'er came over at this time, wouldn't she be exposed immediately?

Just thinking about this, Xin Mu felt that there seemed to be movement outside the house. Ronghua's hearing was very good, and he could hear it more clearly. Dang even frowned, stood up and prepared to go out.

Xin Mu panicked, immediately grabbed Rong Hua's hand, and shouted, "Rong Hua!"

Xin Mu's voice was loud, especially in the silent night.So people outside the house also knew that Rong Hua came back suddenly, and she immediately retreated quietly without making a sound.

The two people in the room were deadlocked in this hand-holding movement, looking at each other with disbelief on their faces.

This is the first time in a long time that Xin Mu took the initiative to have physical contact with Rong Hua. Not only Rong Hua was stunned, but even Xin Mu himself was stunned.

The two stayed like this for a while, and Xin Mu didn't know the situation outside the house, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and not let go, gritted his teeth and said to Rong Hua, "I... I'm having a nightmare."

Rong Hua instantly felt a warm current warming his almost frozen heart, he immediately sat back on the side of the bed, stretched out his arms to hug Xin Mu, Xin Mu frowned, pulled his hand back, and stepped back some.

Rong Hua also knew that he shouldn't be so aggressive, so he quickly withdrew his hand, and then said: "It's just a dream, it's okay, if you are afraid, I won't leave tonight, I will stay with you."

Xin Mu lay down and listened quietly, there was no movement outside the house at all, so he turned around, turned his back to Rong Hua, and said, "No, I couldn't sleep a little bit earlier, but now I feel sleepy again. You go back."

He was only tender for a moment, and was immediately cut off from his world by Xin Mu. Rong Hua pondered the tenderness just now for a while, and then said softly: "I never thought that you would take the initiative to talk to me."

Xin Mu's shoulders moved, but he didn't say anything.

Rong Hua continued: "I'm still thinking, maybe you will always resist me like this, and you will never forgive me, but even so, I can't let go, losing you will only be more painful than it is now. You know I won't I let you go, no matter if I am delusional or shameless, in short, I hope you can understand...my love for you is true, I hope... hope you can give us another chance, forget the past, Let's start again, okay?"

His love may be true, Xin Mu thought in his heart, but he doesn't know how to love someone at all.

Xin Mu took a deep breath and said, "I'm sleepy."

Rong Hua still didn't get Xin Mu's forgiveness, his heart sank gradually, and then he became more and more panicked, always feeling that Xin Mu would leave him.

Rong Hua was about to say a few more words to Xin Mu, when suddenly there were a few shots of arrows outside the window, the sound piercing the night sky made Rong Hua's complexion change, and he immediately got up and opened the door.

The loud arrows were issued by the barracks, indicating that there was an emergency at the moment.

Xin Mu also heard it, and she didn't know if it was Min'er's people who did it, so she sat up, frowned and looked out the window.

Rong Hua turned back and smiled at Xin Mu, and said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid, there should be bandits robbing near Baima Pass, you sleep, I'll deal with it, and I'll be back tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Ronghua left quickly, and closed the door considerately before leaving, for fear that Xin Mu would catch a cold from the night wind.

Xin Mu turned over, put on her clothes and paced back and forth in the house.

Soon everything was quiet again, and Xin Mu could only hear her own heartbeat.

Two sticks of incense had passed since Choushi, Xin Mu opened the door to check several times, but Min'er did not appear again.

Then, Xin Mu smelled a faint scent of burning bean oil, which was vague at first, and then became stronger. Just when Xin Mu realized something was wrong, someone shouted outside the door: "It's water! It's water!" !"

Xin Mu was startled, hurriedly ran to the door and opened the door, and saw three people in the yard, two lying on the ground, and Min'er standing beside them.

Because Xin Mu likes to be quiet, there is only one person in the courtyard to serve him on weekdays, and the guards guarding him are only outside the courtyard.Min'er was supposed to be serving at night tonight, and I don't know why there were two more people. Xin Mu thought that the maid who was serving was also staying tonight, but after a closer look, he found that it was actually a man and a woman, and they didn't look like living.

Xin Mu immediately thought of the pair of maids and guards who eloped.

Xin Mu's heart skipped a beat, looking at those two, her complexion paled instantly.He opened his mouth and yelled something loudly at Min'er, but at this moment a large beam at the main entrance couldn't withstand the fire and collapsed. say what.

The fire burned around the entire courtyard, assisted by soybean oil. In a short period of time, the flames blazed into the sky, and the flames rushed to more than ten feet. Although the people outside the courtyard immediately fetched water and started to put out the fire, no one dared to break through alone. The siege of fire rushed in.

If there is, that person must be Rong Hua.But counting the time, I am afraid that the Ronghua people have already arrived in the barracks by now.

Xin Mu stood blankly, looking at the two fallen in the yard.

And Min'er was quite calm, different from her submissiveness in the past, she seemed to be a different person, her eyes were as piercing as a falcon, and she rushed to Xin Mu's body in two or three steps.

She grabbed Xin Mu's hand with considerable strength, and easily pulled Xin Mu to the edge of the lotus pond.Then she picked up the wooden bucket by the pool, lifted a bucket full of water, and drenched Xin Mu from head to toe, then she picked up another bucket of water, and drenched herself completely.

After finishing all this, Min'er took Xin Mu's hand and said, "Your Highness, come with me! I left a life gate, and you won't get hurt if you run from there. Don't be afraid!"
