Chapter 229 Close the door

"Prince Jingnan personally investigated this matter, and there will be no mistakes."

The corners of Huo Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a dark light in his downcast eyes.

Originally thought that this incident must be done by Zhao Yan, but unexpectedly it was Huo Yixuan, someone whom he had never paid attention to, who secretly murdered Xiao Ruan.

The second room, Huo Yong, is selfish and has no opinion, and Qian has always been behind him.But Huo Yuan is a vicious person, Huo Xun was only wary of these two people in the past, but he never thought that this time he would almost fall into the hands of Huo Yixuan who was ignored by him.

In Huo Xun's impression, Huo Yixuan is arrogant and has no brains, she is a complete idiot at all, but this one person's progress almost harmed Xiao Ruan and the child in her belly!Thinking of this, Huo Xun wished he could go back to the Duke's Mansion immediately and execute these villains who pick quarrels and troubles every day on the spot.

"The Qian family has repeatedly troubled you, and I will definitely make them pay the price this time!"

Huo Xun frowned, clenched his fists tightly, the creaking sound of joints was very clear, but Xiao Ruan shook his head.

"No, I don't want you to make a move."

Seeing Huo Xun's surprise, Xiao Ruan raised his eyes and said firmly, "This is a matter between me and Huo Yixuan. I want to solve it myself, without your presence."

"How can this be between the two of you? She almost killed you and your child, how can I spare her!"

Huo Xun immediately objected.

Deep in Huo Xun's heart, he thought that Xiao Ruan's injuries were all caused by him.

The second room has always been hostile to him, and kept making small moves in private. If Xiao Ruan hadn't married into the Huo family, they would not have shifted their target to her.

Even Huo Yixuan's hostility towards Xiao Ruan was all because of him.

Recalling what happened during Xiao Ruan's marriage to Huo's family, Huo Xun's eyes became more and more guilty.

It is his wish and responsibility to protect Xiao Ruan all his life.But now Xiao Ruan's injuries all came from himself, and what happened in the past few days really made Huo Xun feel scared.It's not because of those villains, but because of Xiao Ruan being hurt again.

When Huo Xun was thinking in this way, Xiao Ruan suddenly took his hand and shook his head lightly: "You are the Marquis of Dingguo, you are a famous general in the Jin Dynasty, your world is the battlefield and court. For a brat like Huo Yixuan, I can do it myself."

Seeing that Huo Xun was about to speak out again, Xiao Ruan raised his head, and his voice became more solemn: "Huo Yixuan and Xiao Ying are friends, and these two people will definitely collude. I need to think about this matter carefully. You just need to serve the emperor with all your heart. That's fine, if I need help, I will definitely ask you for help. Sir, don't you believe in Ruan'er?"

Xiao Ruan asked with a smile, she naturally knew that Huo Xun wanted to avenge her, but she didn't want him to be involved.Right now is the special period when the crown prince and Zhao Yan are fighting for power. If something goes wrong because of such a trivial matter, it is really not worth it.

According to what Huo Xun said, Jingnan Palace did not find out the maid who delivered false news to her, and there was not enough evidence to accuse Huo Yixuan.

Furthermore, because of the relationship between Huo Xun and the second room, unless some definite evidence can be found that can deal a fatal blow to the second room, it is really inappropriate to make a move at this time.

But she is different, no one will notice the intrigue among these women, as long as she keeps the moral high ground, it will not affect Huo Xun's reputation.

The most important point is that Xiao Ruan believes that such things as revenge must be done personally, so as to be hearty enough.

Huo Yixuan had targeted herself several times before, but she ignored Huo Ming's illness, and now she should settle this account properly.

Facing the stubborn expression on Xiao Ruan's face, Huo Xun's eyes flickered slightly, and he finally nodded and agreed: "Forget it, I will arrange some people for you, no matter what you want to do, you can arrange them to do it."

"In this way, I thank my husband."

When Xiao Ruan heard this, a smile appeared on his face.Reflecting the light of the candlesticks in the distance, something flickered in the eyes.Huo Xun immediately let Li Yan in, and distributed some of his subordinates to Xiao Ruan.

"Miss, Princess Jingnan is here!"

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Ruan had just had breakfast, only to hear the crisp sound of Zhu Yun from outside, the door curtain was raised, and Zhu Qian in a scarlet cloak appeared in front of Xiao Luan.

"Princess, why are you here?"

Surprise flashed in his eyes, Xiao Ruan immediately asked someone to help him sit up.

"Lie down quickly and don't move around."

Before the little girl approached Xiao Ruan, Zhu Qian stepped forward to stop her, and insisted on letting Xiao Ruan lie down and talk. Xiao Ruan had no choice but to ask someone to find a cushion for herself.

"Do you feel better today?"

The maid moved the round stool, and Zhu Qian sat down in front of Xiao Ruan's bed, and at a glance, she saw the uncollected medicine bowl on the side table.

The porcelain bowl depicting orchids in Phnom Penh is white and clean, with the dark soup remaining, and the bitter taste of the soup can be vaguely smelled.

Guilt flashed across Zhu Qian's face, and she was a little more worried when she looked at Xiao Ruan again.

At this time, Xiao Ruan was half lying on the bed, her jet-black hair was scattered behind her back, and her slightly pale face was still haggard, obviously her body had not fully recovered.

However, Princess Jingnan looked at the person in front of her and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Yesterday was Zhao Yixuan's birthday, she kindly invited Xiao Ruan to the house to celebrate with her, but she never thought that Xiao Ruan would be kidnapped.

She learned from Li Yan that Xiao Ruan was almost burned to death, and even had her fetus moved.She was shocked, she had been investigating the ghosts in the mansion yesterday, and rushed over early this morning to visit Xiao Ruan.

Seeing Xiao Ruan's haggard appearance at this time, she felt uncomfortable again.

Xiao Ruan was pregnant, it was very rare to be able to go to the recent palace yesterday.If she lost her life because of this, she was afraid that she would not be able to repay the debt no matter what.

"Princess, you don't have to worry about me. Dr. Lin has prescribed medicine for me, and I can recover after a few days of rest."

Seeing Zhu Qian's self-blame, Xiao Ruan sat up straight, reached out and gently took her hand to comfort her in a low voice.

When Huo Xun met King Jingnan yesterday, Zhu Qian had already inquired about the details of Xiao Ruan's kidnapping.I also learned that she thought of arson in order to send news to Huo Xun, and you have a little more admiration for the courageous woman in front of you.

But thinking that everything the other party has suffered has something to do with Prince Jing's mansion, it is inevitable that he will feel more guilty.

Seeing that Xiao Ruan was the same as usual, without any complaints, Zhu Qian felt even more upset.

"You never complained, but I can't take it seriously. If it wasn't for the mistakes made by Prince Jing's residence yesterday, you wouldn't have suffered such a catastrophe."

Zhu Qian held Xiao Ruan's hand back and shook her head slightly.

Speaking of this, Zhu Qian's face suddenly revealed a serious expression: "In the future, you must be careful of Huo Yixuan, she failed to succeed this time, maybe she will attack you in the future."

Prince Jingnan's mansion had a good relationship with Huo Xun, and Princess Jingnan took extra care of her on weekdays, Xiao Ruan didn't want to hide it either.

"I'm not afraid to do anything to me again, but I'm afraid she won't dare to act rashly after this time. If I want to deal with her, it will be more difficult."

"There is some truth in this, but no matter what, you should be more careful..."

Hearing the deep meaning hidden in Xiao Ruan's voice, Zhu Qian's eyes flashed, and she was about to ask for something but was interrupted by the little girl outside the door.

"Miss, the eldest lady of the second bedroom called the door, saying that she wanted to visit you."

"The eldest lady of the second room, isn't that Huo Yixuan?" Zhu Qian's eyes widened in surprise when she heard the little maid's voice, she could hardly believe her ears.

"Back to Wangfei, the young lady outside the mansion is indeed Huo Yixuan."

Hearing this, Zhu Qian immediately turned her gaze to Xiao Ruan.

Frowning, Xiao Ruan pondered for a moment, and immediately came: "Please ask someone to tell her that I'm not feeling well today and can't see her, let her come back another day."

"Yes!"

The little maid immediately left after hearing the words, but Xiao Ruan stopped her when she reached the door.

"There is no need to convey my words immediately, and let her wait for an hour before telling her."

As soon as Xiao Ruan's voice fell, Zhu Xi, the pig sitting opposite him, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Your method is good, and I will learn from you in the future."

Today's weather has become extremely cold, Zhu Qian's sedan chair still feels not warm enough with the charcoal basin.She was really curious about what Huo Yixuan's expression would be when he got the news that Xiao Ruan didn't want her to come to the house to meet after he had been frozen outside the room for two hours.

Outside the gate of Dingguohou's mansion, Huo Yixuan, who was wearing a thick cherry-purple cloak, was at the gate, waiting for the concierge to tell her.

Winter was approaching, and the weather was getting colder and colder. Huo Yixuan held the hand stove in her hand, her whole body was huddled in the cloak, and the tip of her nose was a little red from the cold.

I don't know how long it has passed, Huo Yixuan felt that her body was going to be frozen, but she still didn't see the porter come out to answer her, she felt so depressed, and ordered Yinger beside her to knock on the door again.

Ying'er took the order and immediately stepped forward to the gate of the Hou's Mansion and called to the people inside, but she patted the door for a full stick of incense and did not hear any reply.

"Could it be that everyone in here is dead! You made me wait at the door for such a long time!"

Huo Yixuan was full of anger, and roared angrily.Suddenly there was a creaking sound, the door of Dingguohou's Mansion was finally opened from the inside, and a servant in a gray gown finally came out from inside.

"Miss Huo, my wife is not feeling well. I can't see you today. Please come back another day."

"What did you say!"

Huo Yixuan waited for a long time, but she didn't expect that she would wait for such a result. She was suddenly furious, and all her blood rushed to her head.

Before she could vent all her dissatisfaction, the servant in gray seemed to have guessed her actions.Before she could say her angry words, she slammed the corner door shut.

"This bitch, I came to visit her with good intentions, but she asked me to come back another day. She really thought she was something!"

Thinking of how long she had endured in the cold wind, Huo Yixuan was furious. While speaking, she rushed to the gatehouse and kicked the gate of the Marquis Mansion forcefully.

"Open the door for me, I'm going in now!"

After slapping the door and changing the corner door, Huo Yixuan yelled at the people inside for a long time, but still no one came out from inside, she was disappointed in the end.

Holding back her anger, just when Huo Yixuan was about to leave in disappointment, she suddenly saw a pair of men and women in exotic costumes walking towards them not far away.
