Chapter 7 [Night Lake Exciting]
Chapter 7 [Night Lake Exciting]
The lake at night is calm without a trace of ripples, like a heavenly mirror. Xiao Yan walked close to the lake with Ru Mo on his shoulder, and suddenly turned his hand and threw her down the lake. In an instant, the calm lake splashed with ripples, and countless drops of water flew into the air, like pearls.
Rumo's arm, which was all immersed in the water, swayed and struggled a few times. Finally, she put her head out of the water, coughed a few times, and took a long breath. She only felt that her body was not so hot, and her mind was a little awake. The cool and thorough lake water penetrated through the hairbones, which was particularly comfortable.
Ru Mo was suddenly thrown into the lake. Although the effect of the medicine was relieved a lot, after she woke up, she felt that she could not exert any more strength to flutter. As her body gradually sank, she wanted to shout, but she was physically and mentally exhausted to shout out.
Xiao Yan bent down at the edge of the lake and saw that Ru Mo, who had just poked out her head, was sinking little by little. Her heart tightened and cursed, "This stupid girl can't swim." Then he untied the jade belt around his waist, jumped out of the lake without hesitation, picked up Rumo, whose head had sunk, and shouted her name anxiously, "Hey, Leng Rumo, hey, Leng Rumo, hey..." After he finished shouting, Ru Mo coughed and said, "I still... No... I'm dying..."
Xiao Yan, who hugged Rumo, changed his face in the water. He seemed to blame, seemed to be distressed, and seemed to cry and laugh. "I'm not dead, why do you scare me so much?"
Ru Mo was slightly stunned when she heard Xiao Yan's words. She thought that he was also afraid of her death. She turned her head to him with emotion, but looked at his dark and bright star eyes, like gems, against the lake, which made him more handsome and dazzling.
"Do you care about me?" Ru Mo stared at Xiao Yan like an obsessive, with a shy smile on her lips, and muttered.
Xiao Yan couldn't help grabbing Ru Mo's cold hand in the water, as if grabbing a piece of cold and gentle jade, stirring up a wave of ripples in his heart. Suddenly, a trace of worry flashed in his expression, let go of her hand, left her, and swam to the lake alone.
Ru Mo looked at Xiao Yan's back, and her heart was cold. She didn't know where she had offended the prince, or the same sentence; "Turning her face is faster than turning over a book", and in an instant, all the grievances seemed to burst out. She slapped her hands on the surface of the water and cried with tears, almost pressing all the secrets in her heart to make her breathless. Only when you shout out can you relax; "It's not my fault. I just want to avenge my father. I didn't poison the emperor. It's just ordinary incense. I don't have any antidote. It's just mint balls..."
Xiao Yan didn't look back. He couldn't be soft-hearted. He has been looking forward to it, he has always wanted to prove it, and has been waiting for it. At this moment, he finally knows it, but sometimes there is not much difference between knowing and not knowing. Now he can only pretend that he doesn't know anything.
He picked up the jade belt on the ground and walked lonely and calmly step by step. "This stubborn and proud girl finally admitted that she was the one who gave incense to the emperor. It turned out that she also had a fragile side. But how can this stupid girl know that she can escape the emperor's clutches tonight because of her sister, but her sister is not unconditional!"
In the emperor's warm pavilion, there was a thick plush carpet, and when I stepped on it, I felt extremely soft and particularly comfortable.
Xiao Bao rolled up half leaning on the soft couch and looked at Ru Mo in front of him with a smile. He played with a small sachet in his hand and did not speak, but just looked at her.
Ru Mo felt that the atmosphere was awkward and asked first, "Is my sister all right?" She thought that Xiao Bao rushed to her sister that night. She must be very ill.
"Ceng Jieyu just suffered from the wind and cold, and she is all right." Xiao Baojuan picked up tea and took a sip, and there was a little complaint in his expression. If it hadn't been for Leng Xinmo's saying that he was seriously ill, he would have dared to go in a hurry and would not have failed that night.
"It's okay..." Ru Mo sweated coldly. What should she say in her heart? My emperor, I have something to ask..." Before she finished speaking, Xiao Baojuan waved his hand to interrupt and said with a smile, "I have something to say. Never ask for anything in front of me."
"My concubine?" Ru Mo listened to this name, why was so harsh? She laughed twice and knelt on her knees. "Please help my father Leng Qiulin wash away the grievances."
"Leng Qiulin's case will be discussed later. Can you help me see what kind of incense I have in my hand?" Xiao Baojuan stayed, walked to Ru Mo, put her request aside first, and changed the topic.
Ru Mo stood up depressedly, took the small sachet in Emperor Xiao Baojuan's hand, smelled it reluctantly, and gave a five-word answer, "I don't know."
Xiao Bao rolled his eyebrows and was a little puzzled, "Isn't the beloved concubine know the art of smoking incense? How can you not know?"
"Oh? Does the emperor also study the incense? As soon as Ru Mo entered the warm pavilion, she smelled an unusual fragrance here, and saw the small sachet in Xiao Baojuan's hand, which had already speculated.
"I have always liked to mix incense, so I have this hobby." Xiao Baojuan replied with a smile, pointing to the flower rack in the corner, "What kind of fragrance is this?" He asked Rumo again.
Ru Mo approached and saw that there was a green jade flower pot on the flower rack, reflecting the daffodils with white petals of gold, which looked elegant and exquisite. The flowers are in full bloom, and as soon as the smell is emitted, the room is full of dark fragrance.
"The fragrance of daffodils." Ru Mo suddenly realized, raised the sachet in her hand and smiled at the emperor, "So this sachet is the fragrance of this daffodil?"
A trace of disappointment flashed in Xiao Bao's eyes, and then smiled and said, "Jia Tangyue still didn't teach you the art of incense. But it doesn't matter. This will not affect your status in my heart. I will immediately issue a decree to make you 'Princess Mo'.
"Why is the emperor so kind to me?" Ru Mo was surprised. Since the emperor already knew that he could not smoke incense, why did he make her a "concubine"?
Xiao Bao's eyes were full of doting. He picked up Ru Mo's chin and smiled leisurely, "Because you are the one who can turn ordinary incense into poison." After saying that, he walked out of the warm pavilion with a laugh!
Since her sister Xinmo was named Jieyu, Rumo has not seen her sister, because the last time her sister poisoned her, she was always a little disappointed. If Xiao Yan hadn't helped her detoxify her, her face might have been swollen? Thinking of Xiao Yan, she couldn't help but feel sweet in the bottom of her heart. He saved herself again and again. Can she afford this kindness?
When Ru Mo went to her sister's residence and saw the three big gold-ironed characters "Leng Hua Hall" on the linth, she thought that Xiao Baojuan was also very fond of her sister. Otherwise, her sister claimed that she was very ill that night. Later, it was just a cold, and she didn't see Xiao Baojuan's complaints. ?
Ru Mo picked up the steps and was stopped by the little maid of honor last time. "Our master just took the medicine and rested. Please come back tomorrow."
"Do you know who I am? I'm your master's own sister. How dare you stop me?" Ru Mo laughed for a moment and whispered to the little maid.
"Our master really rested..." The little maid's attitude eased a little, but her hand still stopped her to prevent Ru Mo from entering.
Ru Mo looked down and said coldly, "The emperor is about to make me a concubine. Your little maid of honor dares to stop the concubine, not to mention that I am your master's own sister. Do you want to do the following?"
The little maid suddenly changed her face and hurriedly turned around and said, "The maidservant went to inform the master..." As soon as he stepped on one leg, he was pulled by Rumo and shouted, "No need."
Ru Mo pulled away the little maid who was in the way and walked in. When she was about to cross the corridor to the bedroom, her footsteps stopped, and only heard the delicate laughter of Leng Xinmo from the flowerbed...
"Your Majesty, my hairpin is crooked. Please help me straighten it." Leng Xinmo leaned against Xiao Yan's arms. Ru Mo looked up and looked at the voice. She saw her sister Xinmo holding Xiao Yan in her hands, with a delicate smile on her face.
Ru Mo only felt a burst of sadness in her heart. The sadness surged into her heart and penetrated into her eyes, which made her suddenly feel that this scene was very dazzling. Just as she was about to leave, the little maid of honor just now caught up and attracted the attention of the two people in the flowerbed.
"sister." Leng Xinmo's hands quickly put down from Xiao Yan's waist and walked to her sister Ru Mo, with a natural expression.
"I thought my sister was seriously ill and came to visit her. It seems that my sister is not seriously ill?" Ru Mo's voice was extremely stiff at her sister, and she glanced sarcastically, "Did my sister come at the wrong time and ruined my sister's good deeds?"
Leng Xinmo was embarrassed, "Sister... Mo'er..." When he didn't know how to answer, he looked at Xiao Yan, but he stood still like a piece of wood, focusing on his sister Rumo. He looked complicated and seemed to have lost his soul.
Ru Mo didn't pay attention to her sister anymore. She walked to Xiao Yan's side, bent down slightly, and forced herself to calm down. A sneer floated at the corners of her mouth, "I'm going to say good to the prince. None of us owe anyone." The latter sentence is more like talking to himself. After saying that, he turned around and ran away.
Xiao Yan was about to chase him when he was stopped by Leng Xinmo; "Your Majesty, did you forget to promise me something?"
Xiao Yan couldn't forget that day in the pavilion, the queen smiled faintly at the corners of her mouth and casually said to Jieyu Lengxinmo beside her: "Is your sister Leng Rumo going to bed tonight?"
The teacup in Xiao Yan's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and the tea splashed everywhere. He was stunned on the spot and looked straight at the queen, "Who will sleep tonight?"
"The sister of Leng Jieyu is the maid of honor, Ru Mo, who used to be around me. What's wrong with the prince today? Is he so uncalm?" The queen covered her face with a handkerchief and smiled. She had long guessed that the prince in front of her was moved. From the last time he came to her for the antidote for the girl, she knew that he fell in love with the girl. Since she knew, she believed that she would not kill the little girl Leng Rumo.
"Your Highness, is it not hot?" Leng Xinmo quickly took out her handkerchief, ran to Xiao Yan, knelt down, and gently wiped the tea splashed on his hand for him without avoiding any suspicion. This made the queen happy again. She picked up a piece of pastry snack, put it in her mouth, and squinted, "What a good two sisters of the Leng family, this palace makes you incompatible with water and fire."
