Raiders the heroine

The delay outside the palace was not short, and Luo Ruan managed to return to the palace before the curfew.

Although nothing major happened in the past few days, Luo Ruan felt a little tired for some reason.

After being washed by Biyun, just about to take a rest, Eunuch Xi rushed over suddenly, saying that the emperor had summoned him.

So Luo Ruan had to put on his clothes again, and followed Eunuch Xi to take advantage of the moonlight at Haishi to rush to the imperial study.

The imperial study room was full of lights and piled up with official documents. Luo Ye sat in it, if it wasn't for the fact that his expression was too bad and his aura was too strong, he would have looked like a painting in a trance.

"Brother Huang."

When Luo Ruan came in, he saw such a scene, and couldn't help but worry.

She had tried to keep the volume down as much as possible, but still alarmed Luo Ye under the lamp.

"Ah Ruan is here."

With a "click", Luo Ye put down the vermilion pen, and pressed the corners of his eyes with his pale fingers, trying to relieve the fatigue of his eyes.

Luo Ruan meekly sat beside him, slightly frowned her beautiful eyebrows, "It's getting late, why doesn't Brother Huang take a rest?"

"There have been many things recently..."

Seeing that he was very tired, Luo Ruan hurried forward to help him massage his shoulders.

"Then you have to take a good rest, otherwise your body will break down, how can you have time to deal with important tasks, isn't it worth the loss."

Luo Ye closed his eyes, and said tiredly but happily, "Now I'll teach you to talk about Zhen."

"I haven't asked you where you went today and why you came back so late."

Hearing this, Luo Ruan hurriedly tightened his hand to please her, "It's not so late, as soon as Eunuch Xi called me, I'll come over."

"You are right." Luo Ye's tone was quite helpless, so he had to emphasize his tone a little, "Ah Ruan."

"Here you are, brother."

"Recently...the capital is not very peaceful. Brother Huang may not be able to take care of you. You have finished your Chinese studies. Don't run around and return to the palace as soon as possible."

"But the general is coming back?" Luo Ruan was a little puzzled when she thought of what Du Ruo had said to her during the day.

"How did you find out?"

Luo Ye opened his eyes suddenly, and his originally relaxed body straightened up. Luo Ruan felt the tension of his body muscles almost instantly.

She was a little startled, but she didn't dare to tell the truth.

"Today... I accidentally overheard fourth brother talking to Miss Du Ruo."

The prime minister's first wife who died early was remarried to the prime minister. She had a son named Lu Lin earlier.

"Du Ruo and Lu Lin in the Prime Minister's Mansion are half-brothers and sisters. It's not too strange for the fourth child to tell Du Ruo the news in advance."

only……

"Are you looking for the fourth child again?" Luo Ye may not have realized it.But when he asked this sentence, his brows were as high as a mountain.

"No." Luo Ruan quickly denied.

"I just went to visit Qingliang Temple today, and just happened to meet them."

Luo Ye didn't know whether he believed it or not.

Orally, he still worriedly asked: "There is a medicine powder in Beijing recently. It is said that after taking this medicine powder, you can experience the fun that ordinary people can't experience. But if you stop taking the medicine, you will go crazy and suffer unbearable pain." You go to Chinese studies every day, I will send you more guards, if you meet such people, stay away from them."

After hearing this, Luo Ruan murmured in her heart, hearing how this symptom was exactly the same as that.

But she didn't get any more useful information, so she didn't speak rashly.

Luo Ye was still talking.

"Fourth...it's as rare as possible to see each other. And Du Ruo, the eldest daughter of the prime minister's mansion, it's better to be far away."

"why?"

"There are so many reasons." Luo Ye lost his warmth and became serious again, "Brother Huang will never harm you."

"It's getting late. Grandpa Xi, take the princess back to rest."

Luo Ruan was called over inexplicably, and rushed back inexplicably.It's just a little confusing.

Luo Ruan walked out of the palace gate, and finally yelled towards the inside.

"Brother Huang, you should also go to bed earlier, don't go to bed too late—"

Under the candlelight, when Luo Ye heard this call, which was still quite immature, he couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth, and read a sentence in a low voice.

"child."

Taiwei's House.

Although the Taiwei has recently lost the favor of the emperor, the power in his hands has gradually been eroded by the prime minister.

However, the entire Taiwei Mansion is magnificently built, and it can be seen how powerful and powerful the owner of this house is.

In the Taiwei's study, the lights were dim.

Sitting beside the table was a middle-aged man with a restrained manner. Although he was very imposing, his face was gloomy.Judging from his appearance, this person is none other than Taiwei Cao Zhirong who has been frustrated in the court recently.

Not far from him, a tall and unusually tall black figure stood in the dark, speaking in a slightly weird tone.

"What are you still hesitating about, Master Taiwei?"

"According to the report of the spies, that lunatic Lu Lin dared to leave the army and return to the court first. Such a good opportunity is a gift from God." When the speaker mentioned the name Lu Lin, his tone obviously increased by two points.

As the candlelight flickered, the tone in the shadow became more and more bewildering, "Your Excellency, cooperate with us inside and out, and wait until Jingguo is completely under our control, why bother to be angry with those birdmen."

"You... you let me think again... think again."

Cao Zhirong was sitting on a chair, caressing a piece of jasper non-stop, his brows furrowed, his face solemn.

"Jie Jie Jie Jie..." Hei Ying laughed arrogantly, "In this case, I will give you another three days. After three days, if you have not made up your mind, then you must take the responsibility to delay our king. Consequences of the plan."

Cao Zhirong's face turned pale suddenly, cold sweat dripped down his face, and when he looked over, there was no shadow of a second person in the room.

He got up from his chair and paced back and forth in the study, considering whether this matter was feasible.

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the cabinet in the study, interrupting Cao Zhirong's chaotic thoughts.

His expression changed again, he decisively pulled out the dagger hidden in his sleeve, and slowly walked towards the cabinet with a gloomy expression.

He slammed the cabinet door open, and a petite shadow rolled out from inside.

Cao Zhirong raised his dagger and was about to stab it down.

"Father!!" Heiying cried out, and rushed forward to hug his thigh.

It turned out to be his second daughter.

Cao Zhirong heaved a sigh of relief, and angrily pulled him up from the ground with one hand.

"How long have you been in there?! What have you heard?!"

Cao Ningruo's eyes were full of tears, she just cried, her body was shaking, but she couldn't say anything.

Seeing her reaction like this, Cao Zhirong didn't understand anything.

"Nie Yi!" He slapped down, and the contact sound between the palm and the flesh was crisp.

Cao Ningruo, who was still crying, covered half of her face with her hands in disbelief, staring blankly at her father.

Cao Zhirong remained irritable, but he didn't dare to reprimand her loudly, "How dare you eavesdrop, if that adult found out just now...!"

Mentioning this, Cao Ningruo stopped crying.

She choked hard and asked, "Father!! Who was that guy just now! How could you do something treasonous...!"

"Shut up!!" The veins on Cao Zhirong's forehead stood out, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"I'm not talking nonsense! You clearly..." Cao Ningruo wanted to continue, but was interrupted directly by Cao Zhirong.

"If you dare to say a word about today's matter, I will never recognize you as a daughter again!"

Cao Ningruo opened her mouth in disbelief, but no sound came out.

After a while, she lowered her head in vain and asked softly.

"What about my sister..."

"If it happens, will dad rescue sister?"

Cao Zhirong was taken aback by the question, obviously he had completely forgotten about this daughter who was imprisoned in the cold palace.

If Cao Ning saw his reaction, there was something she didn't understand, and her heart immediately turned cold.

Thinking that this daughter still has something to use, Cao Zhirong managed to calm his temper, and calmed her down with a soft tone.

"If it works, how can daddy forget your sister? You are all daddy's good daughters."

"really?!"

Knowing that the credibility of this statement is not high, Cao Ningruo still deceived herself like a drowning man grasping at the last straw.

"of course it's true."

"It's just that in Beijing, King Duan is a variable for Daddy. If you don't always like King Duan, this time..."

Cao Zhirong clung to Cao Ningruo's ear and said something to his face.

After hearing these words, confusion flashed across Cao Ningruo's eyes, her heart ached so badly that she couldn't help herself.

In the end, with red eyes, she resigned herself to her fate and said, "As long as my sister can be rescued, I... can do whatever I want."

Cao Zhirong looked at her with relief, and helped her wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "This is Daddy's good daughter."

Qiyun Palace.

Luo Ruan was still a little sleepy at first, but after going to the imperial study, she was not sleepy anymore.

She sat on the dresser and talked to Biyun.

Today, Biyun listened to other people chatting about Concubine Li's tragic situation in the cold palace, so she took this out to make the princess happy.

But she didn't want Luo Ruan to finish listening absent-mindedly, not listening to what she was saying at all.

"Biyun, you said the general's surname is Lu, and Miss Du Ruo's surname is Du, how could they be brother and sister?"

Luo Ruan heard this from the emperor, and he still cares a little bit until now.

"This servant doesn't know..." Biyun entered the palace late, and had been doing sweeping work before, so he knew little about these secrets of the capital.

Luo Ruan couldn't get an answer, so he fiddled with the hairpins in the jewelry box one by one.

Just as she was thinking about her background, she caught a glimpse of the hairpin in her hand out of the corner of her eye, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed across her mind.

"This...why does this hairpin look so familiar?!"

Biyun laughed when he heard this.

"This is the hairpin of the princess, of course the princess will look familiar."

"wrong……"

Luo Ruan looked carefully at the Yaochai in her hand, and the feeling of familiarity in her heart became more and more intense, but she just couldn't remember where she saw this hairpin.

It's a pity that Qi Luo used to pack her jewelry box, but now that Qi Luo is gone, no one can answer this question for her.

Luo Ruan was concerned, and finally went to sleep silently remembering the appearance of this hairpin.
