The emperor's favorite useless concubine

Chapter 138 Hunting down Rongxiu
If you don't listen to their conversation carefully, those who pass by by chance will never think of it: the man sitting opposite to Mr. Pei of the Tianchao is the biggest enemy of the Tianchao today, Yanhan.

But at this moment, Yan Han was asking with a smile on his face, "Master Pei, can you fulfill the plan that you said just now?"

"Your Majesty can come in person, how dare Ruochen not entertain His Majesty with the utmost sincerity?" Pei Ruochen replied lightly.

"How can you announce it to the world after it's done?" Yan Han continued to ask with great interest: "Killing He Lanchun, Pei Ruolan's son will ascend the throne, and you will be regent. This is certainly good, but it will inevitably make the world talk what."

"Of course I don't need to do it." Pei Ruochen smiled slightly, "Didn't He Lanxue and He Lanqin escape? The revenge of killing their mother, will they let it go?"

"So you're going to put the blame on them." Yan Han understood, "However, it's not appropriate for you to release He Lanqin."

"Are you afraid, Your Majesty? The Celestial Dynasty still has He Lanqin as a strong opponent?" Pei Ruochen asked with a smile.

"What does Mr. Pei think?" Yan Han didn't answer directly, but turned to the topic that had just been finalized: "If Mr. Pei rises, Yan Kingdom will definitely abide by the promise and attract most of the troops of the Celestial Dynasty on the northern front. , Mr. Pei must also keep his promise, ceding thirteen cities in Suiyuan in the north, and paying tribute every year."

"nature."

"So, I wish us a happy cooperation." After Yan Han finished speaking, he suddenly turned his head and shouted in the direction of the window: "Who?"

Pei Ruochen also stood up upon hearing the sound, and opened the hall door.

Outside the window, the shadows of the trees were whirling, the sun was shining brightly, but there were no people.

"Already gone." Yan Han said indifferently: "Listen to the footsteps, it's a woman."

Pei Ruochen frowned, and walked quickly towards He Lanyou's residence.

Yan Han didn't move, still sitting on the same spot, sipping tea slowly, when Pei Ruochen's figure disappeared into the shadow of the trees, a man in black came down from the roof and knelt respectfully in front of Yan Han.

"Who is it?" Yan Han asked lightly.

"Queen Rong." The man replied.

Yanhan was silent for a while, the palm holding the teacup was slightly tightened, and then slowly loosened, his face was slashed, resolute and calm, "Where is her answer?"

"Miss Yi said that she will not leave He Lanxue."

With a snap, the cup cracked, and the water flowed down onto the table, turning bloody.

Pei Ruochen's footsteps were fast, as expected, not long after he walked, he saw a goose-yellow figure disappearing into He Lanyou's room in a panic.

He sighed secretly in his heart, and slowly stopped in front of He Lanyou's door.

Raise your hand and knock on the door.

There was no response from inside.

Pei Ruochen had no choice but to speak, "Princess, I know you are inside, if you don't open the door, I can only break in."

There was finally a sound inside, and after a while of footsteps, the door was pulled open, and He Lanyou, who was wearing a water-red gauze dress, stood angrily at the door.

"Where's the queen?" Pei Ruochen didn't look at her, just passed her and walked straight inside.

"Pei Ruochen!" He Lanyou turned around abruptly, and shouted at his back: "You are treason!"

"You can go to inform now, you can let He Lanchun catch me and Yanhan, but, you have to remember, you just lost two elder brothers—whether they really died or not, He Lanchun really wanted to kill them. Princess, I It's your husband, he's your eldest brother. You can choose." Pei Ruochen left a sentence indifferently, and then moved on.

The back door was open, and Rong Xiu had obviously run out through the back door.

He no longer hesitated, his figure flickered, and he followed closely.

He Lanyou was left behind, standing alone at the vent of the gate, her hair was messed up by the draft, and the ends of her hair got into her eyes, sore that she shed tears.

Pei Ruochen chased him all the way to the street. The street was full of people, the sun was shining brightly, and there was a bustling market.

Instead of chasing after him, he raised his hand to attract the two of them, and said lightly: "Security at all the entrances to the palace and out of the city, if Queen Rong is found..." After a pause, he finally continued: "Shoot or kill."

His eyes flickered, then fell silent.

The people came to obey orders, and dozens of dead soldiers in civilian uniforms melted into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

He Lanxue and his party left the inn and walked all the way to the gate of the city.

Feng Jiu rented a carriage, let He Lanxue and Yi Ren sit in the carriage, Feng Qi was in charge of driving, and Feng Jiu pretended to be the accountant, walking on the left and right with bodyguards He Lanqin and Yi Jian.

From the looks of it, it looks like an ordinary rich family going out to visit their relatives.

In the carriage, Yi Ren opened his eyes wide and looked at He Lanxue who was close by without blinking. The amazement on his face hadn't faded since the morning.

He Lanxue turned her head a little depressed, facing the street outside the window.

"A Xue, you are so beautiful." Yi Ren was stunned for a while, and finally let out the sigh that had been circling in her heart for a long time.

He Lanxue snorted coldly, not thinking it was such a compliment at all.

It's enough for Yi Ren not to treat him as a man, what will happen after this trouble?
"A Xue, be my model when you go back." Yi Ren said again.

Come to think of it, she hasn't painted for a long time.

However, seeing He Lanxue like this, she had the urge to draw him again.

He Lanxue glared at her, and said angrily: "No, you leave evidence and show it to our children in the future. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me?"

Yi Ren was stunned.

child?

She stretched out her hands and scratched her head, smiled a bit, propped up the wooden stool with both hands, moved up, and looked out of the window.

The wheels are busy, monotonous and rhythmic.

As she listened, Yi Ren's vision gradually blurred, and her eyelids gradually drooped.

The city gate is getting closer.

Feng Qi suddenly reminded, "He Lanxue, we are going to the city gate."

He Lanxue's expression froze, and she was about to wake Yiren up when the carriage stopped suddenly. The sudden stop made the two people in the box fall forward. He Lanxue quickly opened her arms, and Yiren hit her forehead with a 'bang'. On his chest, she rubbed her head, looked around in confusion, the door of the carriage was opened at the same time, and the wind came in.The rolled-up goose-yellow clothes wrapped people up like a ghost.

He Lanxue was planning to defend herself, but when she saw who was coming, she was startled, "It's you?"

Yi Ren also rubbed his eyes, crawled out of He Lanxue's arms, sat down, and looked at the man.

Although she was panicked and pale, she still couldn't conceal the beauty of her orchid in the empty valley. The beauty of Rongxiu lies in her softness and lightness. Therefore, Rongxiu in this situation is not in a mess, but even more beautiful.

"Yi Ren..." Rong Xiu panicked, she didn't recognize He Lanxue who was dressed in women's clothes for a while, but only recognized Yi Ren, her face was filled with joy, "Pei Ruochen is going to hunt me down, can I come up and hide?"

Yi Ren nodded and moved a position to the side.

Rong Xiu immediately climbed into the carriage, and as soon as the door was closed, several people in gray ordinary clothes hurried over.

Rong Xiu held her breath, until they walked away, she was slightly relieved, and then she had the leisure to look at the scenery in the carriage.

Yi Ren was still sleepy-eyed as usual, and opposite her was another woman, tall and beautiful, who looked familiar, but couldn't recall where she had seen her before.

Seeing that Rongxiu was confused, Yi Ren was about to expose He Lanxue, but He Lanxue coughed and turned around to get out of the car.

"What happened?" He Lanqin approached the carriage and asked.

After He Lanqin was dressed up, he now looked like a bearded man, and Rong Xiu naturally couldn't recognize him.

But He Lanqin could recognize Rong Xiu, he was startled first, looked at He Lanxue inquiringly, then turned his head to ask Yi Ren without compromising, "Miss, who is she?"

Yi Ren didn't understand their pretending to be crazy, she was stunned, and didn't know how to answer, but Rong Xiu quickly replied: "I was hunted down by my enemies, I just want to hide here and get out of the car after a while, I won't hurt you .”

"Why did Pei Ruochen chase you down?" Yi Ren asked confusedly when she heard the words 'chasing and killing the enemy' again.

"He wants to treason the country, sell the Celestial Dynasty to the Yan Kingdom, and...will harm His Majesty." When Rong Xiu said the last sentence, the worry and resentment on his face were ready to come out.

He Lanxue sat on the other side, watching and listening indifferently, without moving her expression.

Yi Ren was just silent.

"By the way, Yi Ren, why are you here? Who are they?" Rong Xiu finally realized her situation at this time, and asked hesitantly: "Aren't you with A Xue? A Xue, is it true?" not dead?"

From what Pei Ruochen said just now, He Lanxue and He Lanqin didn't seem to be dead.

The fire yesterday, it seems, was not an accident...

"Eh," Yi Ren was thinking about how to answer, but He Lanqin quickly took it: "We are family members of the Pei family, and the girl sitting on the other side is the new concubine hired by Mr. Pei, and now she has something to go home. Blessings."

Hearing that it was Pei Ruochen's family, Rong Xiu's face turned even paler. He Lanqin said again: "However, we won't do anything harmful to nature. The girl can hide in the carriage. If we are going out of the city, will the girl also go out of the city?"

Rong Xiu hesitated for a moment, and then said cruelly: "Then I will trouble you, take me out of the city."

Going back to the palace to call the police is no longer feasible.

Moreover, Rong Xiu also began to doubt whether He Lanchun had intentions in the meeting in the palace yesterday?

During their conversation, He Lanxue never spoke.

Rong Xiu sat next to Yi Ren, didn't look at her very carefully, just turned to face Yi Ren, and repeated the question just now, "Yi Ren, do you know about A Xue's situation? Also, why are you here? "

Yi Ren looked at He Lanxue, not knowing how to answer.

"As expected, Ah Xue is not dead, is she?" Rong Xiu stayed in the palace for so long anyway, and her ability to observe words and expressions is better than ordinary people. When she saw that Yi Ren didn't have any sadness on her face when she asked such a question, she knew that He Lanxue must be fine.

"Yes." Yi Ren replied subconsciously.

Rong Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, and said naturally: "Then, did Pei Ruochen arrange for you to go out of the city to meet A Xue?"
