Chapter 11 A Thousand Colors Peach Garden (2)
Without getting up, she just smiled slightly, "Yixiao, are you here all right?"

Leng Yixiao nodded with a smile, and introduced: "This is my friend, Mr. Nan."

Ru Mo glanced at Nangong Ye, and greeted lightly: "Please sit down."

Nangong Ye didn't speak, and sat across from her, never leaving her face for a moment.Seeing her greet Leng Yixiao so familiarly, but when she turned to him, she became extremely indifferent and alienated. He felt as if a thorn had been pricked in his heart. , really deserves its reputation. I stopped outside Taoyuan to listen to the piano, and I took the liberty to come to disturb you, so don't blame Miss Mo!"

Ru Mo didn't even look at him, and still said calmly: "Since you came here casually, you don't have to be polite. Come, let's serve tea."

The three cups of tea were quickly served, and Rumo took the lead in drinking under the constant gaze of Nangong Ye, with a calm demeanor, without saying a word, without any self-awareness that he was the host and greeted the guests.

Leng Yixiao followed, drinking tea while admiring the thousand-colored peach blossoms, leisurely and contentedly, as if he came here for the peach blossoms.

For a while, the garden was very quiet, and it seemed that the sound of the breeze blowing the petals could be heard, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.

Nangong Ye finally withdrew his gaze, glanced lightly at the garden full of peach blossoms, and said with a smile: "This garden is quiet and unique, it's just the master's way of hospitality...it's really special!"

Indifference, therefore me.It is indeed her style in memory.

Ru Mo said: "Young master, if you don't like it, you can leave."

The gaze she looked at was icy and cold, rejecting others from thousands of miles away, Nangong Ye's heart sank involuntarily, his thick eyebrows frowned, his emotions were turbulent, and he almost wanted to ask her if he really didn't remember who he was?
At this moment, a maid came to report: "Miss, it's not good, Mr. Shi who broke into the garden two days ago and was thrown out by us...brought officers and soldiers to surround the garden, saying that he wanted to arrest Miss!"

Before the maid finished speaking, a group of officers and soldiers rushed into the Taolin. The leaders were Shi Qing, a fat son who held a folding fan and thought he was handsome, and his second brother-in-law, Cui Jian, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment.

Two days ago, Shi Qing heard that Rumo was in the Garden of Thousand Colors, so he brought his servants and broke into the garden regardless of the obstacles, but was thrown out. Unconvinced, he went to his elder sister Shi Chan, who was much loved by the king, to complain. , Shi Chan blew the pillow wind at the king that night, Lihua added fuel and vinegar to distort the facts with rain, and finally got a word from the king: check!

"Fairy Rumo, I'm here again!" Shi Qing shouted triumphantly as soon as he entered the garden: "This time, I brought a thousand officers and soldiers. Will you follow me obediently, or follow me?" Are they going to the prison of the Criminal Ministry? If you follow my son, I guarantee that you will have inexhaustible glory and wealth in the future. If you don't follow, they will arrest you. from."

The words were spoken with arrogance, but the footsteps stopped early.Thinking of the big losses suffered the previous two times, this time I didn't dare to get too close.

Cui Jian, who was following Shi Qing, also stopped in his tracks, and the scene of the tea pavilion could be faintly seen across the garden full of peach blossoms.

There are three people in the pavilion.One with his back to this side, half of his back was blocked by the pavilion pillars, and only a corner of the black robe could be seen; the other was facing this side, covered by peach blossom trees, only his white clothes were left in the wind; only this The last one, although facing them, was wearing a veil on his face, so he couldn't see his face, only a pair of beautiful but cold eyes, those eyes, lifted up slightly, swept this way from a distance, Cui Jian felt as if his whole body was soaked in ice, his heart was so cold, he couldn't help shivering, and asked Shi Qing: "Third Brother, is that her?"

Shi Qing nodded again and again: "It's her, it's her! Brother-in-law, as long as you help me get her, I will listen to you in everything from now on!"

Cui Jian frowned and said, "Third brother, this woman is extraordinary, you can't afford her." Just from the woman's look just now, he knew that this woman was definitely not something that a fool like Shi Qing could subdue.

Shi Qing was anxious when he heard this, "Brother-in-law, what do you mean? Did you also have a crush on her? If you dare to rob me, I'll go back and tell the second and eldest sisters!"

Cui Jian hurriedly said: "Why are you in a hurry, since I'm here, of course I want to help you." After finishing speaking, he took two steps forward, just missed a flower branch, and was about to wave his hand to grab someone, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Leng Yi looking over With cold eyes, he couldn't help but pause, and was taken aback for a moment.

"Young Master Yixiao?"

"Master Cui!"

Leng Yixiao stood up calmly, Cui Jian stepped forward, waved his hands instead of clapping his hands, and said very politely: "It turns out that you are really Mr. Yixiao! I didn't expect to meet you here, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Leng Yixiao said: "Master Cui is very polite. Yixiao came here to pay a visit to friends, what is Master Cui doing?"

Cui Jian's expression froze, and he thought to himself, this girl has something to do with Leng Yixiao!
"I'm here on orders... Fairy Rumo, please go to the Ministry of Punishments." Cui Jian said as politely as possible.

Leng Yixiao said: "I don't know what crime Rumo committed? Why did Master Cui come to 'invite' in person?"

"This……"

"What is this?" Shi Qing shouted impatiently: "Brother-in-law, what are you talking about with him? Hurry up and arrest him! Arrest him too. He was the one who killed him last time in Sacred Heart Lake." I was ridiculed by others, and I happened to avenge this revenge today!"

Shi Qing unceremoniously pointed at Leng Yixiao with his fan, his fat face raised high, his nostrils upturned, and he hummed.

Cui Jian was taken aback, quickly pulled the idiot back, and persuaded in a low voice: "He can't do it! He is the son of the Jingguo Marquis Mansion, so he can't be offended."

Shi Qing immediately jumped up: "What is the Marquis of Jingguo? My sister is still the future queen! I don't care who he is if I mess with this young master, I will arrest him and put him in prison, and make him cry for his father and mother. The young master knelt down and begged for mercy!"

Rumo, who had been keeping calm all this time, suddenly turned dark, and winked at Qinzhen who was outside the tea pavilion. Qinzhen understood, and with a movement of her figure, she quickly flew in front of Shi Qing.He raised his hand a few times, and slapped Shi Qing's fat face hard.

There were only a few crisp sounds of "papa", and before the officers and soldiers who poured into the garden could see what was going on, Qinzhen had already returned to the original place, as if she had never left.

There was silence all around, Cui Jian and all the officers and soldiers were stunned.

Shi Qing was stunned by the beating, and it wasn't until blood oozed from the corner of his mouth that he recovered from the shock and astonishment, covered his swollen mouth, opened his eyes wide, and shouted in disbelief: "You , You, you...you dare to hit me?"

Ru Mo looked at him with a sneer, as if admiring the gesture of a clown.

Shi Qing was furious, and said ruthlessly: "Don't be complacent! You will fall into my hands in a while, and see if I don't play with you to death! Brother-in-law! If you don't give an order, let them catch this bitch! I don't care what it is Mr. Yixiao, all I know is that today you brought so many people with me, I was still beaten, if you don’t catch them, I will tell Eldest Sister, Eldest Sister will definitely not spare you!”

"I know, I know." Cui Jian responded, and then cupped his hands towards Leng Yixiao: "Young Master Yixiao also saw what happened just now..."

Leng Yixiao said indifferently: "What did I see? I only heard that Mr. Shi insulted my father, wanted to put me in prison, and begged him for mercy. Ru Mo gave me a few slaps. Master Cui thought Isn't it rewarding?"

The usual indifferent tone was not sharp, but Cui Jian was sweating coldly.Marquis Jingguo, that is a character that even the king respects three points, insulting him, getting a few slaps is cheap!
"I don't dare!" Cui Jian said hastily, "This woman repeatedly ordered the servant girl to beat Concubine Chan's brother, and I was ordered to arrest her. Please, Mr. Xiao, don't make things difficult for me! I think Mr. Xiao is smart. People, you should know that offending Concubine Chan is not good for everyone."

threaten?warn?
Leng Yixiao said with a smile: "Thank you, Master Cui, for your suggestion, but Yixiao has always been used to doing things as she pleases, and never cared about offending others."

Leng Yixiao glanced at Nangong Ye who had been silent since Shi Qing and the others entered the garden, and said: "I would like to advise Master Cui, don't help the evildoers, leave now, there is still time."

Cui Jian didn't appreciate it, and didn't talk to him anymore, he just ordered behind him: "Pang Wei, take those two women down!"

Pang Wei took the lead, and two teams of more than a hundred officers and soldiers rushed straight to the tea booth and arrested two of them.The originally quiet peach blossom grove was suddenly filled with evil spirits, and the sword light flickered.

Qinzhen outside the tea pavilion was about to draw her sword to face each other, but when she received a suggestive look from Rumo, she stood there obediently, letting four or five swords rest on her neck.On Rumo's side, Pang Wei's cold light sword was pointed directly at her chest, but she acted as if she hadn't seen it, and casually brushed off the fallen flowers blown by the wind on the table with a calm and at ease attitude.

Leng Yixiao shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that no one is watching the beauty of peach blossoms."

Ru Mo said: "Being able to attract Yixiao's gaze is worthy of its blooming. For those vulgar people, even if you reward it, it is nothing but a blasphemy." After finishing speaking, he raised his eyes and looked past Pang Wei , looked straight at Nangong Ye who had been sitting still on the opposite side, and asked with a half-smile: "Prince Chen, do you think so?" the sound of.But the word "Chen Wang" still pierced my ears like thunder, which made Pang Wei and the surrounding officers and soldiers seem to be locked in place.

After a while, Pang Wei followed Ru Mo's gaze and turned his head to look. The person behind him had a deep complexion and a menacing aura. His pair of sharp phoenix eyes swept slightly, and the weapons in the hands of the surrounding officers and soldiers fell to the ground with a few clangs, which shocked him a lot. Shaking, he immediately knelt down at the man's feet, and shouted in fear: "Chen, King Chen... I will pay homage to King Chen!"

King Chen...

King Chen!

Outside the pavilion, Cui Jian's face changed drastically when he heard the words, and his brain exploded with a bang. Before he could step forward to confirm, Shi Qing shouted helplessly: "Pang Wei, what are you doing? You can't even hold a sword, it's really useless Hurry up and push the two of them over!"

The officers and soldiers kneeling all over the garden were sweating like waterfalls, Cui Jian really wanted to kick this idiot to death at this moment.Who knows, in this feudal kingdom, bumping into the hands of King Chen is more terrifying than bumping into the face of the king!The historian is over!He is also finished!
"The next official sees King Chen!"

Nangong Ye got up slowly. When he got up, he took a deep look at the woman across from him, with complicated eyes. From the moment she called him King Chen, countless thoughts had already turned in his mind.She knew him, but she pretended not to know him and became even more indifferent.

Rumo looked back at him, his eyes looked calm, like a deep pool without waves.

Nangong Ye turned around and didn't speak. The people kneeling at his feet held their breaths, and there was silence inside and outside the pavilion.When he stepped out of the tea booth, Cui Jian panicked and said, "I don't know the prince is here..."

"Cui Shilang!" Nangong Ye cut off his words lightly, and stood still outside the pavilion with an expressionless face, looking at Cui Jian who was half shorter than him because of bending over to salute.

"The subordinate is here!"

"As the servant of the Ministry of Punishment, who is ordering you to help the evildoers and rob people's daughters?" Nangong Ye just asked in a flat voice, but Cui Jian was already trembling with fright, and replied anxiously: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty The official is following the will of the king..."

"Your Majesty?" Nangong Ye frowned, "Did the Majesty order you to arrest someone?"

Cui Jiandao: "The king issued an order... let, let 'cha'..."

"Check what?"

"Check, check..."

After checking for a long time, I didn't say what to check.

Nangong Ye's face darkened, and he suddenly shouted: "Speak!"

A drop of cold sweat fell to the ground with a thud and shattered.Cui Jian's knees softened, and he knelt down, knowing what happened today, no matter what happened, he couldn't make it through, so he had to tell the truth: "Prince Chen forgives my sin! Shi Qing likes Miss Rumo and wants to take her as a concubine..."

"Oh? Really?" Nangong Ye looked back at Rumo, only to see her cold and indifferent eyes, as if she was just watching a boring game.Looking into her eyes, there is always a strange sense of familiarity in my heart.He frowned and turned his gaze to Shi Qing, "You want to take her as a concubine?"

His voice was as deep as water, and his eyes were as cold as ice.

Shi Qing flinched involuntarily, his arrogance was extinguished in an instant, but he still nodded without fear of death, "If the prince can help me get her, I... I must thank the prince deeply."

"How to thank you again?" Nangong Ye asked lightly.

Shi Qing thought for a while and replied: "As long as I have it, I can give you whatever you want."

Nangong Ye laughed suddenly after hearing this, walked slowly to Shi Qing, looked at him, "This king wants your head!"

His voice was not loud, but Shi Qing backed away again and again in shock, subconsciously touched his neck, Nangong Ye suddenly lowered his face, and said with a sneer: "You dare to covet this king's woman! Somebody, bring the two of them together!" Go down and send it to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and the Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Justice will try the case within three days, and there will be no mistakes!"

"Yes!"

The officers and soldiers retreated one after another, a hundred times faster than when they came, and the news that Qin Xian was like the woman of King Mo Naichen spread in and out of the capital city at an incomparable speed. After that, no one dared to inquire about her whereabouts.

The garden returned to its former tranquility. Nangong Ye strolled back to the pavilion, and before he sat down, Rumo asked coldly, "King Chen is always so open-mouthed?"

Nangong Ye raised his eyebrows and said, "Why did this king ever talk nonsense? I will help you get rid of your helplessness, and you will repay me with a promise of your body. This is very fair."

Ru Mo sneered: "It's just helpless, I have a thousand ways to drive him out of the garden, why bother King Chen to come forward?! King Chen pretends to be affectionate and ruins my reputation... Qinzhen, see off!"

This order to expel the guest was issued without any hesitation, without any scruples because of his noble royal status.

Nangong Ye frowned, his complexion turned sour, he took out the scroll from his sleeve, patted it on the table, with a slight force of his fingers, the scroll spread out in front of her.In the painting, the woman is dressed in white clothes that are more snow-covered, with a light gauze covering her face, and her long hair is not pulled back.

Ru Mo's eyes moved, and he looked up at him.

Nangong Ye propped his hands on the table, leaned over slowly, and looked closely at her cold and calm eyes that suddenly became complicated, "Ten years later, you can still go back to the bottom of Langya Mountain to prove that you never forgot It was agreed back then. But why did you deliberately treat me so indifferently?" His eyes were deep, and the dark light in his eyes was sharp and scorching.

Ru Mo seemed to be burned by the temperature in his eyes, and he glanced away almost immediately, his heart seemed to be scratched heavily by something.

She lowered her eyes slightly, twitched her brows, and immediately let go, and said in a light tone: "Did Chen Wang remember wrong? I have never made an agreement with anyone!"

Indeed, there was no agreement. From the beginning to the end, he was the one who said he would take her away from Langya Mountain; he was the one who said he would protect her from being hurt again; he said he would marry her when she grew up. The person is also him; and in the end, leaving without saying goodbye...it is still him!

Her eyes were cold, and when she raised her eyes again, she was already indifferent.

Nangong Ye was slightly stunned, but for a moment, Rumo said again: "Speaking of which, it was indeed King Chen who helped me out of the siege just now, although I may not need it. But since King Chen has given me a favor, I can't be ignorant of good and bad, why don't I just offer it?" Dance to a song and say thank you."

I didn't ask for opinions, I just thanked him with a dance, and I didn't owe favors.After saying that, he got up slowly, and said with a cold smile to the side who was sitting silently, just staring at the picture scroll, "Yixiao, can you play another song for me?"

Leng Yixiao came back to his senses, smiled lightly and said, "It's a great honor."
