Pet official

Ruan Yunqing didn't say anything else, she led the way silently, and led Ning Bai out of the narrow path.

He talked so much with Ning Bai, but he wanted to break the boat and force Gu Yuanwu not to be perfunctory, so that he could meet the prince smoothly.

Ruan Yunqing took a great risk in saying these words tonight.He could guess that the prince was awake, but he couldn't guess how the prince's next move would be in the prince's layout.

In any case, since Ning Bai and Gu Yuanwu kept this matter a secret, no one from the emperor and empress down to civil and military officials knew about it. The secrets in the book, in order to prevent accidents, if one more person knows, there will be an extra risk of leaking the secrets.If the crown prince knew that Ruan Yunqing had guessed the truth, he would most likely kill him to silence him, so as not to cause future troubles forever.After all, no matter how strict a person is, he can't compare to a corpse that can't speak.

The chips in her hands are too small, and Ruan Yunqing has no idea what the prince's nature is.This move was a bit reckless, but if he didn't do it like this, how could Xiao Changfu let him go.

The last time it was Pingxi who rescued each other; this time it was Ruan Baosheng who set fire to the woodshed and led Xiao Sunchangfu away.So, what about next time?Next time, do you still have to wait for others to save you?Repeatedly ruining his good deeds again and again, no matter how stupid Xiao Changfu is, he will suspect that someone must be doing something wrong, he is vicious, if Ruan Baosheng is found out, he does not know what kind of insidious methods he will use kill him.

Can't wait.Ruan Yunqing thought that in order to win the battle quickly, he had to rely on the power of the prince, even if it was a risk, this was the only way to do it now.

When the two arrived at the corner door, there was already a eunuch waiting in the shadow of the door opening.Seeing Ning Bai, the eunuch came out to greet him, opened the corner door without saying a word, and led him out of Likun Palace.

Ruan Yunqing stood for a while, watching Ning Bai leave the palace courtyard and go up the corridor, and then locked the corner door again.

The sky was white, and a little light pierced the night, slowly spreading.

Another day.

Ruan Yunqing hurried back to Ruan Baosheng's room, first looked at Pingxi, he was still in a drowsy sleep, his cheeks were flushed red, Ruan Baosheng was soaking a cloth towel with spirits to wipe him down to reduce his fever.

Ruan Baosheng has returned to normal, and the grieving and angry person from last night is no longer visible.He smiled and talked to Ruan Yunqing: "You go back first, and don't come here if you have nothing to do. I'll think of a way with Xiao Changfu, and you should avoid him first. There was a big fire yesterday, and he was responsible for a lot of crimes. I think it will take a while Damn, he can't care less about looking for you."

Ruan Yunqing nodded, and before leaving, told Ruan Baosheng not to interfere in Xiao Changfu's affairs, "You don't need to worry about it. I will find a way to get rid of Xiao Changfu."

After a pause, Ruan Yunqing lowered her head and said in a low voice, "Thank you cousin, Xiaoer is very grateful. I will remember this kindness forever."

When Ruan Baosheng heard the phrase "don't worry about it", he got angry, and when he heard Ruan Yunqing say "kindness, gratitude", he was even more angry, grabbed him, shook him twice, fiercely He said: "Are you confused or stupid? I am your elder brother, and I can't write two Ruan characters in one stroke. If I don't protect you, what face will I have to go back to Ruan's Village in the future? What face will I have to see Uncle Wu?"

"Can……"

"But what? Oh, you think I started to treat you coldly and ignore you? Hey, why did you show a cold face to me the first time we met you brat, I have to put on my brother's airs anyway, wait Did you come to beg me? If I had known about Xiao Changfu’s troubles, I should have yelled around with the gongs and drums from the very beginning, so that everyone would know that you are my Ruan Baosheng’s brother.”

Ruan Baosheng thumped his forehead, repenting at the beginning, "It's a pity that there is no one who sells regret medicine in the world. I am too. The boss is alone, so why should I be angry with you as a child. Now it's good, I have caused such a big disaster, I really don't know how it will end. You Don't do stupid things, you are a child, how do you get rid of him? Not to mention his power in the palace, even if you want to fight alone, you are not his opponent. How can you fight him..."

He was full of resentment and chattered endlessly. Hearing this, Ruan Yunqing felt sour and warm in his heart, and his eye circles were also red.

Ruan Baosheng was devoted to protecting himself, so he could no longer be passively beaten and hurt others.Ruan Yunqing made up his mind, and all the fear and uneasiness in his heart just now was firmly suppressed by him.

After persuading Ruan Baosheng for a while, Ruan Baosheng temporarily dispelled the idea of ​​seeking revenge from Xiao Changfu. Ruan Yunqing did not dare to tell Ruan Baosheng that firstly it was unknown whether the crown prince would see him, and secondly, even if he met the crown prince, would he be able to satisfy himself? The purpose is also unknown, everything will be known after seeing the prince, at this moment, it is better to advise Ruan Baosheng not to be angry for a while, but to act on his own will.

Ruan Baosheng agreed with his mouth, but he was extremely unwilling in his heart, he was secretly planning and how to do it, let's not mention it for the time being.

The two brothers said a few heartfelt words, and Ruan Baosheng sent Ruan Yunqing out. When he came to the door, Ruan Baosheng let out a long sigh, took Ruan Yunqing's hand and said, "Don't hate Fifth Uncle. Send it to the palace. Back then when I entered the palace, I had an upheaval with my family, and I refused to come even if I died. At that time, my father knelt down for me. He asked me to take a good look at the house and my younger brothers and sisters. , he said, as long as I finish reading it and still say something about not entering the palace, he won't force me..."

Ruan Baosheng had a bitter look on his face. He can still recall the shock and panic when he saw his father kneeling down, as well as the desolation and helplessness of his family's desolation.What can he do if he doesn't enter the palace? There is no reason to watch his family starve to death. He has worked hard to climb up all these years, flattering people everywhere and pretending to be his grandson. Looking poor, he can afford anything.

Ruan Yunqing looked at Ruan Baosheng, with a smile on his bitter face, not to mention how ugly that smile was, it was even uglier than crying.Ruan Yunqing's heart ached when she saw it, her voice was choked up, she called brother, and the rest of the words were blocked in her throat, and she murmured after a long time: "Don't laugh..."

It is obviously a bitter memory, why can he still laugh.

Ruan Baosheng covered half of his face with one hand, and the corners of his mouth trembled for a long time before he said in a hoarse voice: "If you don't laugh, should I still cry? Crying is useful, and we brothers won't come to this ghost place."

When we rushed back to the service room, it was already daylight.

As soon as Eunuch Cui and Zhou Jun saw Ruan Yunqing, they grabbed him and asked about what happened last night. Ruan Yunqing didn't dare to go into details, but said that he was beaten by Xiao Changfu when he arrived at the guard's house, and then there was a fire outside. I was busy fighting the fire, so I escaped the catastrophe. As for Pingxi, Ruan Baosheng and other matters, I will not mention them.

The two of them did not suspect him, the fire was so fierce last night that even eunuchs like them who were not on duty were mobilized to fight the fire, but fortunately they were discovered in time. To prevent fires in the palace, several large water tanks were kept in the courtyard all the year round. When raising fish and planting lotus, if there is a fire, you can use the water in these tanks to fight the fire, and you won't be caught blind temporarily, or the water source will not be enough.

Three houses were burned down in the back cover room, and several people were injured by the fire, but the rest had no major losses. After tossing until midnight, the fire was finally extinguished.

"This is Xiao Changfu's fault. The fire was so intense last night that even the chief inspector and the empress were alarmed. We must report to Wansui this morning. He was on duty last night. No matter how the fire started, it will eventually be destroyed." It fell on him. Even if he can't hit the board, he will always be fined and reprimanded."

Zhou Jun spoke happily, and when he thought of Xiao Changfu being severely scolded by the eunuch, the supervisor of ceremonies, he felt the anger in his chest dissipated a lot.

Eunuch Cui was still afraid of things, so he didn't allow Zhou Jun to talk nonsense, and after a few words of admonishment, he ordered the young eunuchs to go to work.

Today, the eunuchs in the miscellaneous room are even more busy. After a big fire, the sundries that need to be tidied up are piled all over the floor. Eunuch Cui led Ruan Yunqing and the others to move, clean the yard, and tidy up the things rescued from the fire. , It took two full days to be considered clean.

After what happened last night, Xiao Changfu felt that he had Ruan Yunqing in his hands, so he didn't send anyone over to make things difficult for him. He only told Ruan Yunqing to wait obediently. After he finished his chores, he asked Ruan Yunqing to serve him.

Ruan Yunqing continued to speak nonsense, deliberately pretending to be obedient and obedient, in order to prevent Xiao Changfu from getting suspicious.The two days passed quickly, and Ruan Yunqing waited anxiously, not knowing what was going on with Ning Bai, and whether the crown prince could see him, a humble servant.

Pingxi's injury showed no signs of improvement, and the wound on his chest also tended to suppurate. He fell asleep all day long, and occasionally woke up. He couldn't last for a while, and then passed out from the pain again.

Ruan Baosheng hated him so much that he tried several times to settle accounts with Xiao Changfu, but thanks to Longan's dissuasion, he didn't do anything reckless.When a person is in a rage, it is inevitable that he loses his composure. If he makes a rash move at this moment, he will definitely be influenced by his emotions. He will not be able to avenge him, but even himself will be involved.

Ruan Yunqing met Ruan Baosheng a few times again, and he was no longer as cold and alienated to her as before. Ruan Yunqing was happy in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it too much. After all, the mountain of Xiao Changfu was still pressing on their heads, and it wouldn't get rid of for a day. If this person is lost, they will have no peace for a day.With the lessons learned from the past, at this time, Ruan Yunqing dared not get close to Ruan Baosheng, so that Xiao Changfu would not use him to threaten him again.

Another day passed like this, and on the third night, after the third watch, the whole palace fell into silence, and Ruan Yunqing also went to bed early, half asleep and half awake, suddenly heard three short flute sounds coming from the window, which was black and white. Clothes specific signal.

Every month, the man in black would come to deliver the antidote in the middle of the night. This time, it was already a day late. Ruan Yunqing was not sure, and even wondered if the prince refused to see him, so he stopped delivering the antidote. matter, simply wait for him to be poisoned and die.

Climbing up from the bed, Ruan Yunqing got up quietly, put on his clothes, opened the door, and walked out of the room lightly.

When they came to the bushes where they met each time, they immediately saw a man in black with a green veil standing in front of an osmanthus tree.
