night enchanting

Chapter 16
In the early morning of this day, the weather was gloomy and misty, the whole palace was shrouded in light smoke, and there was an indescribable sense of oppression.

Ru Mo sat in front of the window, looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, and smiled wryly.Since leaving Daiyue Pavilion three days ago, Nangong Ye had never visited her.After all, he is the King Chen in the mouth of the world. Maybe, in order to find Elder Sha, she should let go of everything, try her best to dispel his worries, and gain his trust. However, she couldn't do the hypocritical flattery, and she was afraid of paying the price. Sincerity, in the end he got his hypocrisy.

"Miss, I've taken the medicine." Shuiyue brought the medicine, Rumo glanced at it, and said calmly, "My injury is no longer a serious problem. I don't need to take these medicines in the future. Take them back."

"This..." Shuiyue wondered, "My lord ordered..."

"Let you take it out!" Rumo interrupted coldly without waiting for her to finish speaking.

Shuiyue was stunned, and looked up at her in surprise. Shuiyue had seen many indifferent people, but the woman in front of her was clearly sitting there, but she seemed to be standing at a very high place, looking down at the common people with a blank expression, as if Nine Heavens Fairy, or Queen, indifferent, noble, majestic.Shuiyue took one look at her like this, and after just one look, she involuntarily lowered her head, Ru Yanliu frowned slightly, and hurriedly retreated out.

Ru Mo looked out of the window again, the opposite study room, there was no one there at the moment, Nangong Ye hadn't returned home yet, the garden was very quiet.

"Miss," a moment later, Shuiyue entered the room again, and smiled at her: "Before the prince leaves the mansion, I will tell my maidservant that if the lady is bored, let the maidservant accompany the lady out for a walk. I heard that there is a new jewelry store opened on West Street. , the jewelry there is all purchased from Jin Kingdom, one of the three great powers, and some styles are not found in the palace, so it is very rare, may the lady go and have a look?"

jewelry?Rumo has never been interested, but West Street... Rumo's eyes flashed, it's okay, she just wanted to go to Jingxin Tea House.

Putting on the veil again, the master and the servant left by car.

On the streets today, there are few pedestrians, and the business of the shops is deserted. Probably because of the bad weather, people are hiding in their houses and dare not go out.

Linglong Jewelry Shop is not too far from Jingxin Tea House, on the east end of West Street, next to a flower street, and next door to this jewelry shop is a famous brothel.As soon as Rumo walked to the door of the jewelry store, there was a deep and deep sound of clang from the backyard of the brothel next door. It was completely different from Zheng Yin's quiet and simple, but it was extraordinarily touching.

Rumo was slightly startled, and told Shuiyue: "You go in first, let the shop owner bring out all the best jewelry, and I will go in and pick out right away."

Shuiyue entered the room in response.Ru Mo followed the sound of the piano, walked in another direction, entered a narrow alley, and not far away, he saw a half-closed back door.She stood in front of the door for a while, but there was no more sound from inside. She thought for a while, then gently pushed the door open and entered.

Different from ordinary brothels and small courtyards, the layout here is exquisite and elegant, more like the backyard of a dignitary's mansion.There is an artificial lake in the courtyard, the water of the lake is not deep, a wooden and stone-structured promenade filled with flowers of various colors stretches across the lake, winding and extending to both ends of the lake.

Surprisingly quiet around, not even a servant.Ru Mo was puzzled, and heard the sound of the piano again, and then she realized that at the end of the corridor, there was a man sitting. The man was wearing a black robe, hidden among the green trees on the shore of the lake.It's really weird, in the backyard of a brothel, instead of a woman, there is a man playing the piano here!

As if aware of her intrusion, the man raised his head and glanced towards this side. From a distance, she only felt the cold wind blowing against her face, and the cold air penetrated her heart.She couldn't help but tremble, stepped onto the corridor, and suddenly a wonderful light fragrance hit her. She frowned slightly, glanced at the blooming flowers on both sides of the corridor, and walked towards the man opposite.

The man had black satin hair, a soft face, and a brown scar on the left cheek, which was extremely eye-catching, but it didn't look hideous, on the contrary, it added a bit of sinister beauty to him.

Seeing Ru Mo approaching, the man stopped playing the piano, raised his head and smiled at her, that smile was indescribably feminine and charming, but he didn't speak, as if he was waiting for Ru Mo to speak first.

Ru Mo lowered his eyes and glanced at the guqin in front of the man, a fresh crack that was obviously scratched by a sharp weapon was in sight.Ru Mo's eyes focused, and he sighed softly: "It is worthy of being one of the two famous pianos in the world! Although the sound quality of this 'Xi Ming' is not as quiet and simple as that of 'Zheng Yin', it is deep and thick, pine and powerful, which is not the same as that of 'Zheng Yin'. No distinction is made between superiority and superiority. Your Excellency is fortunate to have this fine piano, but you don't know how to cherish it, so it can be seen that you are not someone who loves the piano. It is really unfortunate that 'Xi Ming' fell into your hands!"

One word tells the origin of the piano.

Hearing this, the man stood up, clapped his hands and laughed, and said: "Listen to the sound and distinguish the qin, the qin is like a stranger, and the reputation is really well-deserved!"

She revealed her identity in one sentence.Rumo wasn't surprised, but this qin, if it really is a ziming guqin, then this person must be someone from the bloodthirsty building.

Ru Mo stared at him calmly, only to hear the man say again: "That idiot Shi Qing, it's worth dying for a wonderful person like you."

Ru Mo frowned, "It turns out that your Excellency instigated Shi Qing to go to the Thousand Colors Garden to make trouble! I don't know what your Excellency is trying to do?"

If I guessed correctly, it must be this person who plotted against her that day!
The man smiled and said: "It's nothing, but I just want to present a big gift to Miss Rumo, to relieve her boredom. How, that play is still exciting?"

"Wonderful?" Ru Mo sneered, and said expressionlessly: "Your Excellency is so generous, starting with the court officials, King Chen's finale, I'm afraid Ru Mo is also in the play!"

The man laughed loudly, "Life is a play, and it's not surprising that Miss Mo is in the play. Come and serve tea to the guests. Miss, please sit down."

"You're welcome!" Rumo refused, she didn't intend to stay here any longer, but the man in front of her seemed humble and polite, but in fact he was evil.Unlike Nangong Ao, Nangong Ao's evil charm is just an illusion used to confuse people, and the person in front of him is evil in his heart.She disliked such people the most.

The man didn't force himself, sat down on his own, raised his sleeves and wiped the piano, looking like a baby.Ru Mo sneered secretly in his heart, lowered his eyes and looked at Xi Ming again, the man raised his head and asked, "Miss Ru Mo is interested in this piano?"

Rumo asked lightly, "Your Excellency, are you willing to give up your love?"

The man looked at her, smiled and said, "It depends on who is right. If it's Miss Rumo, I might... consider it."

Is there such a cheap thing?She really didn't believe it.But no matter what, since she saw this breath, she would have to take it back sooner or later.

"You don't have to think about it. This piano is neither your property, and it will return to its original owner one day. You might as well talk about a few more songs now, so as not to miss the chance to play in the future." Ru Mo said and turned around. , just leave.But the man laughed and said: "Miss, what you said is wrong, what is the original owner? This piano is in my hands today, and I am its owner! Since you come, you are a guest. Why don't you drink a cup of tea before leaving."

At this time, someone brought tea and handed it to Rumo, but Rumo didn't pick it up, but smelled a scent of fragrance, rising with the heat, and slowly dispersed, refreshing the heart.Suddenly the wind blew up behind him, and the light fragrance from the unknown flowers on both sides of the corridor floated in with the wind, mixed with the fragrance of tea, forming a strange fragrance.

Ru Mo Wenzhi frowned, didn't think too much, and immediately waved his sleeves, and the tea tray in the maid's hand flew out immediately.With a bang, the teacup was smashed together.Even the flower beds on both sides of the corridor were swept into the lake by the remaining strength, and all the fragrance disappeared in an instant.

"Miss, what are you doing? I treat you with good tea. Even if you don't like it, you shouldn't be so reckless! Do you know that this is a peerless good tea that is hard to buy for a thousand dollars? What a pity!" the man said. Shaking his head and sighing, he said pity in his mouth, but there was no regret in his eyes, and the evil smile on his lips never disappeared even for a moment.

Rumo was taken aback for a moment, Qinghao?This tea turned out to be clear!

A rare and famous tea that can sterilize hundreds of poisons, only one pot has been available for decades.This is a rare and rare treasure, but if mixed with a special secret fragrance, although it is not poisonous, it is a hundred times stronger than poison, and that special secret fragrance...

"Did you mix 'drunken fragrance' in those flowers?!" Ru Mo's eyes were sharp for a moment, and he glanced at the ruined flowers floating on the lake, startled.

"Tsk, tsk...Miss Rumo is really well-informed. She even knows the rare fragrance of 'drunken fragrance'. It’s useless to say that a chaste and strong woman is immune to all poisons? Miss Rumo, this is my second big gift to you!”

Ru Mo's heart trembled, Qing Hao was drunk, how could she not know, "Who is your Excellency? The unique secret medicine of the Demon Palace, Qing Hao, a pot of tribute Qing Hao that was only obtained in 50 years in the Imperial Palace of the Kingdom of Jin, where did you come from?" The result? What does your bloodthirsty building have to do with the royal family of the Kingdom of Jin?"

She even asked a few questions, although she was terrified in her heart, she was still very calm on the surface.

Hearing her mention of the Bloodthirsty Building and the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Jin, the man's eyes lit up, and he glanced out of the garden. Suddenly, his body moved, and he rushed to her side, about to hug her by the waist.Rumo raised her breath quickly, and was about to dodge and retreat, when outside the courtyard wall, there was a sudden sound of footsteps, and the eyes of the man in black who was hugging her shone brightly, as if everything was under control with a determined expression.Ru Mo suddenly understood, it seemed that today, she was already in the schemes of others before she left the house, she didn't need to look back, she also knew what she was going to face next!Can't help but change my mind, since I can't avoid it, why not...

Ru Mo's eyebrows moved, he let go of his tightly clenched hands, his true energy dissipated, and he felt powerless all over, and was hugged by the man irresistibly.

"What do you want?" An unbearable hotness suddenly rose from her body, fiercely.Ru Mo's expression changed immediately, and he asked a question coldly.

The situation was arranged in advance, and he did not hesitate to lure her into the urn with his breath. What is the purpose of this person?

The man saw her strangeness, hugged her at the right time, leaned into her ear with a proud face, and said with a wicked smile: "I thought, you already know! Guess, King Chen saw you making out with me here, Will he kill you in a fit of anger?"

The man intentionally exhaled into her ears, and a tingling sensation immediately spread throughout her body, causing her already unbearably hot body to react immediately, almost uncontrollably wanting to lean into the man's arms.Rumo hurriedly practiced his kung fu, trying to resist the attack of the medicinal power, but found that he could no longer gather his true energy, so he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and asked coldly: "He killed me, what good will it do you?"

The man smiled happily: "It's no good! So I don't want you to die, I think, King Chen will definitely not let you die!" Looking at her face, I was about to kiss her on the lips.Ru Mo frowned in disgust, but she didn't panic, because she didn't see the slightest bit of lust in this man's eyes, which showed that this man's purpose was not hers.

"What are you doing?!"

A deep shout suddenly came from the other side of the green lake, like thunder, it was just in time.

The man in the black robe stopped his movements, and the evil smile on the corner of his mouth slowly spread, "He's coming!"

she knows.

Ru Mo looked back, a water promenade, this end she was hugged tightly, her posture was extremely ambiguous.On the other end, Nangong Ye, who was wearing a black court uniform, was full of anger, with a gloomy face, striding towards them.

The weather was gloomy, with dark clouds covering the top, and it seemed that a storm was coming.Every time Nangong Ye took a step, his gaze became a hundred times darker than before.

The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became very oppressive and disturbing.But Rumo's expression did not change at all, she turned her head calmly, and saw that the smile on the man's face in Xuanyi had subsided, and she smiled slightly at this moment, and said in a low voice: "It's just in time, although I don't know what your purpose is, but this time , you did me a big favor again!"

The man in black clothes looked at her suspiciously, Rumo suddenly gathered his strength and pushed the man away suddenly. At this moment, the man pierced a silver needle into her acupuncture point with his backhand, and she felt numb all over. The heat wave seemed to be suppressed all of a sudden.Rumo staggered back, his limp body hit the low guardrail on one side of the corridor, and when he was about to fall to the ground, he was caught by a big hand.

A gust of cold air came from behind and enveloped her tightly, making her feel as if she had returned to the cold winter weather four months ago.The strong sense of oppression made the air so heavy that she was suffocated before she raised her head.

Grabbing her hand, he used strength like venting his anger, and in just a moment, her arm was probably bruised and purple, which was horrible.

Ru Mo supported the guardrail, and slowly turned her head, her face was flushed due to the medicine, as if her lust had not subsided.Seeing this, Nangong Ye was furious and couldn't help but lift her up from the ground, and asked in a deep voice: "You really have a private meeting here?! Since you already have someone you like, why did you show up at my king's house?" In front of you? Tell me, what is your purpose for approaching this king?"

It's the purpose again, he really never forgets it!Ru Mo raised his head, frowned and said, "Who did you hear that I'm meeting someone privately here? And who told you that he is the person I like?"

Compared with Nangong Ye's rage, Rumo, who was caught having a "private meeting" with someone on the spot, seemed too calm, so calm that Nangong Ye wanted to strangle her to death.

"Isn't it?" Seeing that she didn't panic at all, Nangong Ye couldn't help but gritted his teeth and asked, "Why did you push away the water moon? I heard that you still wore a veil when you left the mansion, but when you came In front of this person, it is easy to expose. The two of you are hiding in the backyard of the brothel, cuddling and making intimacy, it is not a private meeting of lovers, what is that?"

Nangong Ye glared at her, deep disappointment was written all over his handsome and cold face, as if he had been betrayed by someone he liked, that expression was both painful and lost.He said again: "You avoid this king like a snake and scorpion, but you throw yourself into your arms and hugs this person! If he is not the person you like, then you are really..."

"What is it really?" Ru Mo cut off coldly, and interrupted: "Frivolous and casual? Or can I do my best? Nangong Ye, don't you... really can't see that I've been poisoned?"

Poisoned?Nangong Ye was stunned, and looked suspiciously at her face. The red tide just now had faded away, and the temperature under his fingers was icy cold, and there was no sign of the poison in his body at all.However, Nangong Ye's grip on her arm finally loosened a bit.

The eyes of the man in black at the side flashed, and he immediately made a panicked expression, waved his hands again and again and said: "Yes, yes, yes, King Chen... We were poisoned, that's why we are like this! Don't misunderstand, my lord! , don't blame Mo... oh no, it's Miss Rumo..."

Nangong Ye's complexion changed, it was good that the man in Xuanyi didn't open his mouth, this echo immediately confirmed the name of the private meeting.

"You said you were poisoned?" Nangong Ye sneered, "But aren't you invulnerable to all poisons? You can even detoxify the poison of broken heart on your own. What other poison can do anything to you? You..." said At this point, he suddenly stopped, his voice sank, as if he was being oppressed by a huge boulder, he took a few breaths, closed his eyes for a while, and when he opened them again, there was an unconcealable anger in his phoenix eyes. The hurt look imprinted in her eyes impressively.He said sadly: "Are you actually taking advantage of this king's feelings?! You know that this king has been looking for you for ten years, what do you want, why don't you just tell this king directly, because of the friendship ten years ago, maybe this king will give you money?" Maybe you can fulfill it!"

Nangong Ye's hand tightly clasped her chin, his cold and painful eyes fixed on her eyes, half sneering, half mocking.
