No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 242 Are You Afraid Of Death?

During lunch, Luo Junyao was dragged by Shen Hongxiu and the others to Su Yutang.

Even during meal time, Su Yutang was still very quiet. The girls from the two courtyards sat around the table, eating dignifiedly and gracefully.Only occasionally whisper a few words in a low voice, and will never disturb the people next to him.

Luo Junyao had just discussed with the head of Anlan Academy about borrowing books, and Mr. Zhang promised to help her find a teacher. She was in a very good mood at this time.

But...Looking at the girls sitting next to him, Luo Junyao silently swallowed the fact that he might become the headmaster of the Martial Arts Academy along with the delicious food.

Let's talk about it later, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of screams, and the impact will not be good.

"What are you thinking? A look of bitterness and hatred?" Shen Hongxiu glanced at her and asked in a low voice.

Luo Jun shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I haven't eaten Su Yutang's food for a long time, I miss it a little."

Hearing this, Liang Shufeng smiled and said, "You still have this hobby? I don't want to eat it at all." Su Yutang's food is actually delicious, but they have been eating it for several years.Luo Jun shook his head and sighed: "You don't understand, this feeling will only be understood after you really leave here."

Song Jue smiled lowly and said, "Shufeng will leave after this year."

"Huh? Why haven't you heard of it before?" Luo Junyao was a little surprised.

Liang Shufeng glared at her, and said in a somewhat dispirited way: "Not only me, but also Hongxiu. You also know that I have been engaged for a long time. Hongxiu will be seventeen after the new year, and General Shen and his wife are also giving her a kiss." Looking for a mother-in-law."

Zhao Sisi was a little worried, "Isn't that... Next year, only Minmin, me, and Huihui will be left?"

Liang Shufeng sighed and said, "You and Minmin won't stay long." These two ages are not too young.

Xu Hui raised her little hand and said, "There's still me, I'll stay for a few more years. But..." Xu Hui's cute and cute face was also tangled, "Everyone is gone, am I the only one left?"

Luo Junyao stretched out his hand to rub her little head and said, "Don't worry, how can you let Huihui stay here alone? There will definitely be new friends."

Xu Hui nodded, "Yeah."

Children are carefree, but others are not so optimistic. Before Xu Hui, there were no new recruits in the Martial Arts Academy for two years. After Xu Hui, he still doesn't know what to do.

If no one wants to enter the Martial Arts Institute at all, even if the Queen Mother does nothing, the Martial Arts Academy will exist in name only.

"What did you talk to Mr. Zhang in the morning?" Song Jue sat beside Luo Junyao and asked in a low voice.

Luo Jun smiled and said, "I ask Mr. Zhang to borrow some books for me."

Song Juan turned his head slightly and thought for a while, "T-shaped area?"

"you know?"

Song Xi said: "You can tell me if you need help, I have read some of the books there."

Luo Jun shook his head, Song Jue was not surprised to see her.

There are some books that are classified by scholars as strange skills, obscenity or vulgar knowledge, but for ordinary people, these are actually more useful things.In contrast, for a woman who is alone outside, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are skills that are not practical and even cause trouble for herself.

Since Song Yu wanted to leave Shangyong, he even thought of learning martial arts to defend himself, so naturally he would not ignore these.

While the two were talking, Su Rui came in from the outside.

Seeing Luo Jun shaking, Su Rui froze for a moment before walking over slowly.

"Sister Su Rui."

Su Rui smiled, "I didn't expect you to come to the academy today." Although Su Rui smiled, her brows were a bit gloomy, even haggard.

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "I have some things to discuss with Mr. Zhang. Why did Sister Su come so late?"

Su Rui said, "It took a while."

Su Yutang's maid quickly delivered Su Rui's food, and Su Rui obviously didn't have much appetite and only drank a few mouthfuls of soup before putting it down.

As soon as he looked up, he saw Luo Junyao looking at her with his chin resting on his hands.

Su Rui smiled and said, "Don't worry, maybe I have some accumulated food."

Su Rui obviously had something on her mind, but she didn't want to say that Luo Junyao couldn't ask in public.He could only nod his head and said, "If you're hungry in the afternoon, let's have some snacks."

Su Rui smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know."

After lunch, when the group came out of Su Yutang, they saw Ruan Yueli walking in front of them, still alone and alone.

Several people immediately thought of the matter of the Ruan family, and it was really hard to tell whether it was a happy event or a scandal.

Ordinarily, it is a happy event for the eldest son to come back from the dead, but this eldest son gave the Ruan family a big gift as soon as he showed up.

Regardless of whether this is joy or sorrow for Xiang Xiang, it is definitely not a good thing for the three brothers and sisters of the Ruan family.

Ruan Yuelou, the prime minister's eldest son, suddenly became the second son, and the Mingyin Pavilion behind Mr. Xueya is also quite dreadful.

"The eldest son of the Ruan family... Now that Xiang Ruan has come back, is there a banquet or something?" Shen Hongxiu asked in a low voice.

Liang Shufeng shook his head, "I'm afraid not in the near future, what happened that night was a bit ugly..." The Ruan family probably doesn't want to hold any banquets in the short term.

Su Rui looked at Ruan Yueli's back, frowned and said: "I'm afraid the Ruan family will not be peaceful in the future, you..." Su Rui looked at the girls and lowered her voice: "If the family wants to get married, It's better to bypass the Ruan family."

Only Shen Hongxiu, Song Juan and Zhao Sisi were present who hadn't decided on their marriage, and Xu Hui, who was underage, Shen Hongxiu smiled and said, "My family can't reach the rank of the prime minister's mansion."

Song Ju murmured thoughtfully, "That's hard to say."

"What do you mean?" Zhao Sisi and Shen Hongxiu looked over together.

Song Ju shook his head and said, "It's nothing, what A Rui said is right, if it's not necessary... it's better not to get involved in the Ruan family's affairs."

"It's a pity that Mr. Xueya is so handsome." This was naturally a joke, and she didn't need to be reminded that she felt that she was not the same as Mr. Xueya.

Song Yu smiled lightly: "Sometimes the more beautiful the flowers are, the more poisonous they are."

After bidding farewell to everyone, Luo Jun shook out of Anlan Academy and boarded the carriage back to the city.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and Luo Junyao sat in the carriage and dozed off with his forehead propped up.However, Qin Yao'er, who was sitting next to her, seemed to have been put on itching medicine by someone, and she was moving around without stopping.

Luo Junyao opened his eyes and glanced at her, "What's wrong? There are needles on the cushion?"

Qin Yao'er puffed her cheeks and said, "I smell a bad smell."

Luo Junyao checked carefully, but didn't smell anything.

"What breath?" Luo Junyao asked.

Qin Yao'er's eyes sparkled, "The breath of enemies and scum!"

Luo Jun was taken aback, and quickly realized, "Poisonous scorpion?"

"En!" Qin Yao'er nodded.

As soon as the words fell, I heard a burst of laughter from outside, "Qin Yao'er, you are very smart!"

The carriage stopped slowly, Luo Jun shook the curtain and went out, and sure enough, he saw a few people standing by the side of the road not far ahead.The two leaders were the young man with a knife and the poisonous scorpion Musa who followed Bai Jingrong to the regent that day.

Luo Jun raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Madam Rong wants to see me?"

Musa smiled and said: "The princess regent is very smart, madam please."

Luo Jun sneered and said, "Does she have to let her see me if she wants to see me?"

The faces of the few people standing by the roadside all sank, and the expression of the young man with the knife looked at Luo Junyao with even more anger.

Obviously, these people are all fans of Bai Jingrong.

Luo Junyao snorted softly, stood on the carriage and looked down at the few people on the side of the road, "If you want to see her, let her come here by herself, my princess hates people putting on airs in front of me!"

"you wanna die!"

The young man in black couldn't help but drew his knife and wanted to go forward, Luo Junyao raised his eyebrows and smiled at him, raised his hand and threw something out.

The young man in black sneered, and slashed at the thing in disdain.

After a loud bang, except for Musa, who had a very high lightness skill, stepped back and was blown to the hem of his clothes, the rest of the people were almost all affected.

Although there is no fear of life, it is also extremely embarrassing.

The young man in black was the first to bear the brunt. The knife in his hand had dropped to the ground a few steps away, and cracks had already appeared on the knife.No matter how fast he reacted, he was still no more than an arm's length away from the explosion. Except for protecting his head and face in time, his whole body was almost bloody and fell to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Musa's eyes were cold, "Princess Regent is so vicious!"

Luo Jun said: "The Qi people and Dasheng are enemy countries. You took a few people to intercept my princess in the wild, and he wanted to draw his sword. Now my princess suspects that you want to kidnap me and threaten the prince and my father."

The lethality is not enough. Sure enough, it is difficult to take into account the size and effect of black powder at the same time, and the stability is not very good.If it's yellow powder...

Luo Jun shook his head and decided not to think about this kind of problem for the time being.

"You spitting blood!" Musa yelled angrily.

Luo Jun shook his shoulders and shrugged: "You can think about it as you like." The young man in black had a very unfriendly expression on the two encounters, with hatred and killing intent clearly in his eyes.In addition, Shangyong now has several more masters that she can't beat anyway, how can she be unprepared at all?
Musa's face was gloomy, and he narrowed his eyes and stared at Luo Junyao dangerously.

Qin Yao'er poked her head out of the carriage, staring closely at Musa.

Musa naturally also saw Qin Yao'er's eyes, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and finally took a deep breath and slowly moved his eyes away.

"It's just that I want to talk to the concubine about some things. Why are you so angry?" Bai Jingrong's voice came from the woods beside the road, and after a while, she was seen walking out slowly with someone.

Looking at the distressed people on the ground, Bai Jingrong waved his hand to signal the people around him to take the injured away.Then he raised his head and looked at Luo Junyao, "Why is the princess like this?"

Luo Jun said: "Madam Rong, what can't I say at the Prince Regent's Mansion? You can easily cause misunderstandings like this. You also know that girls are very timid, and accidents are easy to happen when I get nervous."

Bai Jingrong said with a smile: "Princess, don't worry, I won't be so ignorant and attack the regent princess in Shangyong. What's more...the regent has placed so many experts by your side, even if I want to do it, I can't do it."

When she spoke, Lengshuang and Duoying had already appeared beside the carriage.

The two bowed their hands to Luo Jun, and Lengshuang glanced at Bai Jingrong with cold eyes, and soon lowered his eyes and stood silently beside Duoying.

"In that case, madam wants to play a game with me?" She glanced at the person who was being lifted from the ground with a smile, and said with a smile: "It's quite fun."

Bai Jingrong sighed softly and said: "The princess is too hostile to me. I just think... the city is a bit restrictive, but the scenery outside the city is beautiful and no one bothers you. I just want to invite the princess to have a cup of tea and chat for a while."

Luo Jun glanced around, although it wasn't the withered vegetation, it was hard to hide the desolation after winter.Coupled with the slightly cold weather, Luo Jun shook the cloak around her body, indicating that she didn't see any beauty.

Luo Jun said: "I'm afraid I don't have time to drink tea with Madam, if Madam insists on talking to me, come up."

"Ma'am!" Musa whispered, looking at Luo Junyao warily, obviously suspicious of Luo Junyao's intentions.

Luo Junyao thought to himself: I just asked her to get in the car and you suspect that I have bad intentions, so I am not wronged at all if I blow up you who are blocking the way.

Bai Jingrong raised his hand and patted Musa's arm, and smiled at Luo Jun, "Then Princess Lao will take me for a ride."

Luo Junyao smiled at her, turned around and got into the carriage.

After a while, Bai Jingrong really came in.

Luo Junyao said to Qin Yao'er: "Yao'er, go sit outside for a while."

Qin Yao'er glared at Bai Jingrong before getting out.

Bai Jingrong smiled and said: "This girl seems to be very hostile to me, but...everyone in Dasheng is like this, and I have long been used to it."

Luo Jun got straight to the point, "Is there anything worth making Mrs. Rong wait for me here?"

Bai Jingrong smiled sweetly: "It's not a big deal, I just think Wangfei is different from other people."

"What's different?"

Bai Jingrong said: "I think...you don't hate me as much as others."

Luo Jun shook his head and said, "I really don't dislike you very much." Before Bai Jingrong could speak, she continued, "I don't dislike that idiot just now either." But it doesn't prevent me from killing him with a knife. I'm not an idiot what?

Bai Jingrong sighed: "These days, how those people in Yonghuang City insulted and mocked me behind my back, the princess has heard about it, right? In fact, I also know what those people think of me, so what can they do no matter how much they hate me? But It’s just a group of incompetent and useless acid scholars. In the end, it’s just because I’m a woman. There are also ladies and ladies like Shangyong, one by one...they only dare to mock me in secret.”

Luo Jun shook his head slightly and looked at her, not quite understanding what she wanted to say.

Bai Jingrong looked at her and asked, "What does the princess think?"

Luo Jun shook his head, "What do I think?"

Bai Jingrong said softly: "Princess also thinks that women shouldn't want power? They should stay in the backyard in peace and order to care for their husbands and teach their children. Do you still pretend to be virtuous when you see a man with three wives and four concubines?"

Luo Jun shook his head, Bai Jingrong said with a smile: "I have known since childhood that my intelligence and ability are not weaker than men, so why should I follow some boudoir precepts, marry early and have children? But... no one will give me a chance in this world, So, if you want it, you can only fight for it yourself.”

Luo Jun shook his head and said: "You are very reasonable. So?"

Bai Jingrong looked at her, "You are the beloved daughter of General Luo, and now you are the regent princess. Are you willing to be a little princess that Xie Yan can pamper and love? You can clearly do more, can't you?" ?”

Luo Junyao felt a little absurd, "Mrs. Rong...you don't think you want to instigate me?"

Bai Jingrong said: "How can this be called instigating rebellion? It's just cooperation. It is true that Xie Yan has a high status now, and people will only praise you, but the regent is not an emperor after all. One day, the little emperor will grow up. Those royalists will naturally grow stronger. Since ancient times... how many regents and young emperors who are in charge can live in peace?"

"so?"

"I know that Xie Yan treats you very well, and you like him very much. Don't you want to help him strengthen his position?" Bai Jingrong laughed in a low voice, his voice seemed to be full of infinite charm, which made people unable to resist Follow her words to think.

Bai Jingrong leaned closer to her, and murmured in a low voice: "How can a regent princess sound like a queen? Don't you think so?"

Luo Junyao suddenly reached out and grabbed Bai Jingrong's well-maintained right hand. Bai Jingrong was stunned and looked down to see that Luo Junyao had already placed something in her palm.

It was a small black ball, and Bai Jingrong's face couldn't help changing slightly, but Luo Junyao held it tightly when he wanted to stop it.

Luo Jun shook his head and smiled at her, "Mrs. Rong, you said if this thing exploded, who would survive?"

"What are you kidding?" Bai Jingrong looked at Luo Junyao in disbelief, she asked herself that she didn't say anything that would anger Luo Junyao, the regent princess obviously played her cards unreasonably.

Luo Junyao smiled and forced Bai Jingrong's fingers to wrap the ball of fire and thunder, and said, "No, I'll just show Madam my new gadget, who knows it will explode."

"You may not be able to escape!" Bai Jingrong said.

Luo Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "The chance is always a little bigger than yours, why don't you give it a try?"

Bai Jingrong rarely turned pale, "I don't believe you dare, what exactly do you want to do?"

Luo Junyao looked at Bai Jingrong seriously, and said with a smile, "I understand, it turns out... Madam Rong, you are afraid of death."

"Who wouldn't be afraid of death?" Bai Jingrong looked at Luo Junyao with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice.

Luo Jun shook his head and said: "No, you are very afraid of death, because you have worked so hard for so many years, if you die, everything will be in vain. Just thinking about it, you feel that even if you die, you want to crawl out of hell Come back. That's why you have so many masters around you, you are afraid of being assassinated by Dasheng masters?"

Bai Jingrong has regained his composure. After all, she is not an ordinary person. Luo Junyao's little trick can't scare her: "What do you want to say?"

Luo Jun shook the Fire Thunder Ball away from Bai Jingrong's hand with a smile, and said with a smile: "Since Mrs. Rong is afraid of death, don't mess with me. I will really kill people. No matter what you want to plot, what goal you want to achieve, Go find Ayan."

Bai Jingrong snorted softly, retracted the hand held by Luo Junyao, and looked at Luo Junyao with a look of disappointment, "I thought you were different from other women, but I didn't expect... You are still a layman with no ambitions. Dasheng woman It's just that I don't live up to it, and I deserve to be trampled back into the mud by a man."

Luo Junyao raised his hand to cover his lips, and yawned lightly, "Mrs. Rong, there is a saying in the Central Plains that if we disagree, we should not seek mutual conspiracies. It is useless for you to persuade me like this."

"That's all." Bai Jingrong said lightly, "Princess, just pretend that I didn't come today."

After finishing speaking, she raised her hand and knocked on the compartment of the carriage, "Stop!"

The carriage stopped quickly, and Bai Jingrong stood up and shook Luo Jun: "Princess, you are still young, and Luo Yun will be your backer. If one day the Luo family is gone, you will also be old. Xie Yan's love for you is not here, you What's left?"

After finishing speaking, ignoring Luo Junyao's reaction, Bai Jingrong lowered his head and got out of the carriage.
