The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 175 Can't Kill Him

Qingjing Temple is located on the mountainside of Wanfu Mountain. Due to the distance, the incense is not very strong.

Knowing that Xiao Ruan came to pray for blessings, the monks of the monastery immediately took them to the quiet room in the backyard, explained some precautions and did not stay any longer.

There is a golden Buddha statue in the room, which looks extremely solemn.

Xiao Ruan knelt on the futon on the ground respectfully, read the Buddhist scriptures for an hour respectfully, and was about to get up, when suddenly there was a loud noise outside the door, and a man covered in blood broke in.

The other party leaned against the door with his back, as if someone was chasing him outside, but the moment he saw Xiao Ruan, a look of surprise appeared on his dark face.

"It's you?"

The man was covered in blood, and seemed to be enduring great pain. He said this in a hoarse voice, but his figure shook and he fell to the ground!

But at this moment, the door was opened, and Li Yan's figure appeared in front of Xiao Ruan.

Li Yan just noticed that there seemed to be some suspicious people in the temple, and he immediately chased after him to investigate. Unexpectedly, as soon as he came back, he saw bloodstains on Xiao Ruan's doorway.

Terrified in his heart, Li Yan hurriedly kicked the door open, fearing that any accident would happen to Xiao Ruan.

"Ma'am, are you injured?"

Frowning, he checked the bloody person on the ground, and seeing that the person had passed out, Li Yan looked at Xiao Ruan nervously.

"I'm fine, why don't you see how he's hurt first?"

Xiao Ruan shook her head, and unconsciously cast her eyes on the man on the ground.

She never expected to meet Zhao Yan here today, and still use this way of meeting.

The moment she saw Zhao Yan fall down just now, Xiao Ruan felt a sense of joy in her heart.

In the previous life, Zhao Yan had abandoned her like a walking shoe, and was unwilling to even look at her. It can be said that almost all her pain in the previous life came from this person.

But in this life, this man framed her several times before, and he really wished that he would die immediately.

But reason told her, no.

"Miss, this person is Duke Huai! Why don't we..."

A look of cruelty flashed across Li Yan's eyes, and Xiao Ruan immediately understood what he was thinking.

This person sent people to hunt and kill Huo Xun secretly, and now that he is lying here seriously injured, it is naturally an excellent opportunity for revenge.

Li Yan waited for a while, but did not see Xiao Ruan's answer, thinking that she had acquiesced, and immediately stepped forward to drag Zhao Yan away on the ground.

"Li Yan, no! Let him go!"

Seeing that Zhao Yan was about to be taken away by Li Yan like a dead dog, Xiao Ruan suddenly called out to him,
"Now is the time when the Crown Prince is fighting with Duke Huai. One mistaken move will lose everything. If people know that we killed Zhao Yan, even the Crown Prince will be called cold-blooded and ruthless."

Li Yan hesitated for a long time, looked at the man on the ground with regret, and finally went out to ask for a doctor with a frown.

"Thank you Miss Xiao for saving your life."

After Zhao Yan woke up at night, he immediately came to find Xiao Ruan to thank her.

"His Royal Highness Duke Huai is blessed with great fortune, and this is all your own good fortune. I just happened to save you, so you don't have to worry about it."

The candlelight in the room was flickering. Zhao Yan was sitting at a table on one side, his eyes fixed on Xiao Ruan, and when he heard Xiao Ruan's resignation, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"No matter what, this king will remember your life-saving grace."

He thought he was going to die here today, but unexpectedly met Xiao Ruan, Zhao Yanshen thought it was an extremely rare kind of fate.

In the candlelight, Xiao Ruan's eyes were hidden in the shadows, and he couldn't see any expression for a while, but the other party's smooth forehead and delicate face made Zhao Yan unable to turn his eyes away.

Compared with Xiao Ruan a few months ago, Zhao Yan felt more and more that Xiao Ruan now had an indescribable charm, which made his eyes not enough to see.

But remembering how this person refused his marriage proposal several times back then, Zhao Yan couldn't help feeling unwillingness in his eyes.

"Miss Xiao, may I ask you a question?"

One night, Xiao Ruan didn't want to talk to Zhao Yan at all, but when he saw the other party staring at him, a hint of displeasure appeared on his face.

"My lord, it's getting late. You are wounded, so it's better to go back and rest quickly."

Ignoring Zhao Yan's question, Xiao Ruan directly issued an order to expel the guest.

Zhao Yan slapped his face!Obviously, he did not expect that Xiao Ruan would reject him again!
"Well, I'll come back tomorrow to ask you what happened."

Frowning, Zhao Yan's eyes flickered darkly, and he got up to say goodbye.

The next day, Xiao Ruan was reading the scriptures in the quiet room, but Zhao Yan actually found him again.

After a whole day of rest, Zhao Yan's spirit looked significantly different from yesterday,

Xiao Ruan sized him up calmly, and found that the other party's clothes had been changed, and instantly understood that his subordinates had already contacted him.

Politely invited this person to sit on the chair, Xiao Ruan didn't want to talk to him, and continued to pick up the Buddhist scriptures, as if to read on.

"If you hate me so much, why do you want to save me?"

Just as Xiao Ruan picked up the Buddhist scriptures, she suddenly heard Zhao Yan's calm voice, she was startled and raised her head unconsciously.

Facing Zhao Yan's deep eyes that looked like a deep well, Xiao Ruan tightened his palms: "His Highness Duke Huai may have misunderstood, why would my wife hate you."

The word "officer's wife" felt particularly harsh in Zhao Yan's ears. His eyes flickered, and he suddenly picked up the tea bowl beside him.

"Yesterday you saved me, and I am very grateful, but there is something I don't understand. Why did you always refuse to marry me?"

Hearing him bring up the topic of last night, Xiao Ruan tightened her brows, and felt a burst of disbelief in her heart.

She refused to marry Zhao Yan, it was already last year, this person is still struggling, it is really speechless.

Could it be that he asked for a result now, what else do he have in mind?
"His Royal Highness Huai, the minister's wife had someone she liked at that time, so naturally she was not worthy of His Highness."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yan's expression froze immediately, he never thought that Xiao Ruan would admit it like this.

The ink in his eyes welled up for a while, and the corner of Zhao Yan's mouth suddenly curled up into a smile: "Miss Xiao said that she had someone she liked at the time, but how does she feel when she looks at me now?"

Xiao Ruan thought that there was something wrong with her ears, she raised her head in surprise, and saw Zhao Yan looking at her with burning eyes, only then did she realize that what this person meant was to pursue herself.

"His Highness Duke Huai has a noble status, how dare the ministers speak nonsense, and I hope His Highness will stop making such jokes with the ministers again."

It's really hard to understand, when Zhao Yan looked at him in the past, his face was full of anger, as if he saw her as an enemy, but today he lost his nerve and teased him!
For a moment, Xiao Ruan became even more angry, and her voice became colder: "My lord, my wife still has to pray for the old man, I dare not disturb the lord's recovery, let alone disrespect the Buddha statue."

This place was originally used by Xiao Ruan to pray for blessings and chant scriptures, but at this time, Zhao Yan stayed here and turned it into a place for chatting and entertaining guests.

Seeing that Xiao Ruan didn't welcome him at all, a trace of anger flashed across Zhao Yan's face, his eyes sank, and he finally left the room.

When he was about to reach the door, Zhao Yan paused, and suddenly turned his head to look at the woman in the room.

Because of praying for blessings, Xiao Ruan was wearing a moon-white dark pattern wide-sleeved shirt.

She sat respectfully on the futon, holding a volume of Buddhist scriptures in her hand, and the Buddha statue was chanting, with an extremely focused expression, as if she had isolated him from her mind.

Zhao Yan narrowed his eyes, unconsciously recalling the scene he bumped into yesterday when he opened the door.

Yesterday, he was hunted down to this point, he had nowhere to go, he randomly broke into a quiet room, tried to hide but couldn't.As soon as he came in, he saw Xiao Ruan with a surprised face.

Different from Xiao Ruan's astonishment, Zhao Yan's first reaction at that time was that he was afraid that he would die here.

He thought Xiao Ruan was married to Huo Xun, and he hated him very much, so he would definitely take this opportunity to make trouble.

Even the moment he passed out, he didn't believe that Xiao Ruan would save him, but when he woke up, he learned from the monk that it was really Xiao Ruan who saved him.

For a moment, Zhao Yanshen thought that Xiao Ruan had a cold face and a warm heart, and it was not that he didn't like him at all, and he wanted to be with her more and more in his heart.

But this woman took his words as a joke and directly vetoed them.

"Xiao Ruan, so what if you marry Huo Xun? The main thing is that the king wants to hold in his hands sooner or later."

When Zhao Yan left, he took a deep look at Xiao Ruan, and finally turned around and walked away.

Xiao Ruan stayed in Qingjing Temple in Wanfo Mountain for three days. He thought that Zhao Yan would leave early, but he didn't expect that he also stayed in Qingliang Temple for three days.

That person was seriously injured at the time, but the reason for his coma was due to exhaustion of energy, and he could leave after a day at most, but he appeared in front of Xiao Ruan's eyes every day, talking about some ambiguous words.

On the third day, Xiao Ruan couldn't bear it any longer and finished praying, and hurried away with her maid.

Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Ruan turned her head from time to time, for fear that Zhao Yan would follow her again.

"Miss, His Royal Highness Duke Huai already went down the mountain half an hour ago."

Seeing her looking back from time to time, Zhuyun finally couldn't help reminding her.

"Has he really left?"

Xiao Ruan was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt that the way he left in a hurry seemed to be chasing Zhao Yan.

With a sigh of relief, Xiao Ruan immediately slowed down the driver.

"Miss, seeing that His Highness Duke Huai's attitude towards you is very unusual, I'm afraid there will be some disputes, and I don't know if these things have been spread..."

Zhuyun vaguely understood her young lady's thoughts, but if word spread that King Huai was also in Wanfu Mountain in the past three days, she was really worried that Huo Xun would think too much.

I'm afraid that at that time, the lady may be in trouble again.

Hearing Zhu Yun's words suddenly, Xiao Ruan's eyes flashed a dark color, and suddenly he opened the curtain to look out.

The red leaves in the mountains are still the same, but the forest is full of dyes, but there are more frosty colors.

While the wheels were turning, there was also the sound of a loud whip, and when he saw Li Yan following behind the car, Xiao Ruan's face suddenly showed a touch of relief.

Putting down the car curtain, Xiao Ruan said in a calm voice: "I have my own calculations in my heart."
