Tibetan beads

Chapter 245 Lead the snake out of the hole
Duan Wang let her kneel down, holding tea and asked calmly: "What's the matter?"

"Ru'er is incompetent..." Xue Ru lowered her head, facing the contemptuous gaze of the beautiful maid, gritted her teeth and told what happened just now.

Hearing that Yu Chong suddenly turned around, Duan Wang's expression changed and he interrupted her explanation: "So you just came here like this? Didn't do anything?"

Xue Ru was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had made a mistake, he hesitated and said: "This subordinate took some detours to prevent people from following."

Duan Wang sneered, and suddenly asked: "Come here! Search around the palace immediately to see if there are any traces of strangers!"

The beautiful servant girl agreed, cast another contemptuous glance at Xue Ru, and went downstairs.

Before she reached the door, someone outside begged to see her again, but it was the guard.The two exchanged a few words briefly, and the servant girl led the people up directly.

Xue Ru's heart tightened.It was already night, and the guards wouldn't come to the backyard easily if it wasn't urgent.Could it be...

The guard looked dignified, hurried up the stairs, and opened his mouth and said: "My lord, there are people watching outside."

King Duan immediately asked, "Where are people?"

"I didn't catch it." The guard lowered his head in shame. "The other party was very alert. We ran away as soon as we approached, leaving only this."

With that said, he presented a token.

Duan Wang only took one look and knew its origin.

General's House.

After a brief silence, there was a sharp sound of broken porcelain and a dull impact sounded at the same time, accompanied by Xue Ru's cry of "ah".

The tea table in front of Wang Duan, the teapot on the table, and the boiling hot tea all fell on her body.

Xue Ru was so hot that she almost jumped up, but she didn't dare to make any movements, so she could only bear the pain and knelt down with her head bowed.

She realized that she had made a big mistake in a panic!
Yu Chong didn't know who her master was, and he turned around suddenly to intimidate her on purpose.

The act of her rushing back to report the letter just attracted Yu Chong's eyeliner!
In other words, she caused her master to be exposed...

When Xue Ru came here, she still hoped that this matter could be remedied, and it would be better to save her own life, but now she dare not even think about it.

When the existence of the master is known, it means that the greatest support is gone.

Yu Chong holds the military power in the capital and is extremely trusted by the emperor. If he is determined to deal with his master, then...

Xue Ru's heart was so cold that it was no longer a question of whether she could save her life, but a question of whether the master could save himself.

"Master..." She trembled, but she didn't even dare to say a word of pleading.

The guard glanced at her, and asked again: "My lord?"

Duan Wang calmed down and said, "There's no need to look for it, the other party left this thing on purpose."

Yu Chong is warning him!

Duan Wang forced himself to calm down.Now is not the time to panic, he has to figure out what Yu Chong knows.

Thinking of this, he sat down again and asked, "How did you show your whereabouts?"

Xue Ru heard that his voice was calm, and there was hope in his heart, so he didn't dare to play tricks and tell the progress of the task during this period.

"...This subordinate doesn't know what he found, he was fine when he left." Xue Ru was annoyed and guilty when he said these words.How could she make such a basic mistake?He didn't even figure out the matter, so he rushed back to ask his master for help, obviously Yu Chong's behavior was so abnormal.

It was probably because she had suffered too many blows in the past year, and every time she would fail in an inexplicable task, and then be reprimanded and rejected by her master, making her like a frightened bird, frightening herself at the slightest movement.

Duan Wang was thoughtful: "So, you didn't discover much, you just inferred that Yu Chong had great ambitions."

"Yes." Xue Ru was about to cry.Why does she want to make great achievements?If he had come back early to report, the master would have given new instructions, and such mistakes would not have occurred.

"Since you didn't do anything superfluous, how could he discover your identity?" King Duan thought about the matter from beginning to end, and decisively ordered the guards, "Go to Deyi Building and thoroughly check the people in the backyard! Yu Chong left Something must have happened at that time, which aroused his suspicion."

The guard agreed, turned and went downstairs.

The tea table was set up again, the servant girl had already boiled a new pot of tea, Wang Duan was drinking the tea slowly, staring at the dark night, ignoring Xue Ru who was kneeling in front of him.

Time passed bit by bit, Xue Ru was dizzy on his knees, seeing the sky turned pale, the guard finally came back.

"My lord, there is a little girl missing in the backyard." He was in a hurry on the road, and before he could catch his breath, he unfolded a portrait, "This is her appearance. The steward said that she just came here a few days ago, and she has been working all the time." doing rough work."

What else does King Duan not understand?He only felt a cold air rise from behind, and even his scalp was numb: "Someone plotted against this king!"

He has been hiding in the dark for so long and never revealed his ambitions, how could anyone target him?Who the hell knows how many secrets he has?

Wait, the other party knows that Xue Ru belongs to him, so some secret forces in Duan Wang's mansion have already been known.Of course, it is also possible that the other party did not know about him beforehand, but only knew that Xue Ru had a master behind him.

No matter what, the problem lies with Xue Ru, that's for sure!
King Duan laughed back in anger, and looked at Xue Ru who was trembling.

In the early years, this woman made a lot of contributions and was very good at pleasing him, so he gradually entrusted him with important tasks.

Unexpectedly, she was such a person who failed to accomplish anything but failed. Since she went to Nanyuan, she didn't accomplish a single thing, and now she caused him such a big trouble!

"Master, master..." Xue Ru trembled at his laughter, and couldn't help pleading.

Duan Wang withdrew his gaze, and said lightly: "Pull it down, I don't want to see her again in the future."

The guard nodded and said, "Yes."

Xue Ru's liver and gallbladder were torn, and he shouted: "Master! Ru'er is wrong, Ru'er should not be self-righteous, please spare my life, Master! Please spare my life!"

But Duan Wang didn't even look at it, and soon came up with a few wolf-like guards, and dragged her down roughly.

After returning to silence, Duan Wang said: "Go and check, when is the most likely time she showed her whereabouts." After a pause, he added, "Focus on checking those few..."

"Yes."

……

At this time, Xu Yin, who was sleeping deeply, was woken up.

When she saw Xiao Sang in a mess, she couldn't help being stunned: "What's wrong? You were discovered?"

Xiao Sang wiped her face, and only now felt her legs go weak: "Miss..."

Hearing her tell the story again, Xu Yin was stunned: "I told you to pay attention to safety, how dare you do such a dangerous thing? Forget it, don't mention anything else, as long as you come back safely. Chai Qi, remember to erase the traces , don’t let people find out that Xiao Sang belongs to our family. Wei Jun, be careful of people outside these few days, and don’t show your traces.”

Finally, she ordered: "Remember, nothing happened tonight!"
