Chapter 348

"Just do what I tell you. If you need any help, you can just ask, but there is one thing that must be kept in mind. Duke Huai must not see who killed her."

Interrupting Tweety'er's words in a cold voice, King Xia suddenly narrowed his eyes, and there was an indescribable complex color flashing in his eyes.

From the first moment he saw that woman, he knew that she would never be a simple character.Since she refuses to belong to Duke Huai, there is no point in keeping her life, so it is better to kill her directly!
Cui'er could see his firmness from Prince Xia's face, she frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "If the prince really wants to be invisible, this slave does have a way, as long as..."

As Tweety's voice fell, Duke Xia's eyes flashed with joy, and he nodded appreciatively at her: "Your method is good, just follow what you said."

"My lord praises me!"

It was rare to be praised by King Xia, and Tweety's face blushed, and she immediately made a promise and took the order to leave.

The night was calm, and Xiao Ruan's yard was even more silent, unaware that a conspiracy against her had quietly come.

"Ma'am, why haven't you responded yet? The servants are all a little impatient to see what the baby in your womb looks like?"

In Xiao Ruan's courtyard, Pei Er brought some snacks to Xiao Ruan, but when she saw her sitting in the courtyard carelessly holding a piece of candied fruit that hadn't been put into her mouth for a long time, she suddenly spoke.

Hearing Pei'er's words, Xiao Ruan unconsciously lowered her eyes and looked at her lower abdomen.

Conceived in October and gave birth once.The child in her belly is full month, and a midwife has been arranged for her.But just as Pei Er said, the child stayed in her belly very safely, without any sign of labor.

I found a doctor to see it, but those doctors kept saying that the fetal pulse was stable and there was nothing to worry about.

Xiao Ruan didn't want the child to be born after a period of time, and he immediately felt relieved when he got the doctor's confirmation.

During this period of time, she had figured out the guards and terrain of Xiajun Palace through insinuations, but how to escape safely became a difficult problem for her.

Glancing at Tweet not far away, Xiao Ruan suddenly put down the candied fruit in his hand, and sighed to Tweet seemingly unintentionally: "This house is really boring, maybe the child in my belly doesn't like it either, that's why I don't like it." I don't want to be born for a long time."

"Ma'am, what you said is really interesting. How would he know if the child would be bored outside before he was born?"

Pei'er is now arranged by Cui'er to the outer court, and she doesn't have much contact with Xiao Ruan, so she doesn't know exactly what Xiao Ruan is anxious about every day, she thought he was complaining that Zhao Yan didn't come to visit her for a few days, so she immediately tried to persuade her.

"I want this servant to tell you, when the child in Madam's womb is born, His Highness Duke Huai doesn't know how happy he will be, and our mansion will be even more lively when the time comes."

Hearing Tweety'er's words, his eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't refute.

Except for Cui'er, the entire Xiajun Palace thought that Zhao Yan's child was in her belly. Even if they saw her quarreling with Zhao Yan, they didn't dare to neglect her in the slightest.

It was also for this reason that she was able to successfully extract the terrain of the Nanjun Palace from the mouths of the little maids around her under Tweety's supervision.

I don't know if it was her delusion, but Xiao Ruan obviously felt that since Zhao Yan got drunk and had a big fight with her that night, the supervision of her has been obviously loosened.

Putting Pei'er's flattering words behind her, Xiao Ruan's eyes flashed, and she quickly seized the opportunity to say: "There is something interesting happening in this mansion recently, why don't you tell me about it."

Facing Xiao Ruan's expectant eyes, Pei'er seriously thought about it.

"Madam, if you want to know something interesting, the servants really can't say it for a while, but in a few days it will be the master's birthday, and people from the Chen family class will be invited to perform various juggling dramas. You can really go and see it when you are interested.”

"Chen family class?"

Xiao Ruan was worrying that he would not find a chance to leave. When he heard that King Xia's birthday was coming soon, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately acted extremely curious.

"Oh, how did this servant forget Madam, you don't know this Chen family class!"

As soon as Chen's troupe was mentioned, Pei'er's eyes lit up and she talked endlessly: "This Chen's troupe is a very famous troupe in Mengcheng. The people in it can not only sing operas, but also perform many acrobatics. Standing out is a living sign, and even in the entire Yunzhong region, when it comes to Chenjiaban, everyone knows it, everyone knows it!"

"Really? Hearing what you said, I am even more curious about this Chen's class. However, since this Chen's meal is so famous, I think the birthday banquet of Prince Xia will be very lively."

Xiao Ruan's eyes flickered, and he immediately asked about the past years when the Duke of Xia celebrated his birthday.

"My maidservant still remembers that when the prince celebrated his birthday last year, the class leader of the Chen family's troupe performed on stage in person, which is really unforgettable."

Pei'er's eyes sparkled, and she seemed to think of the grand performance of the Chen family class moderator in her mind, as if she thought that although she was very interested in it, she didn't know what she knew about the signature programs of the Chen family class members. Said one by one.

Xiao Ruan nodded as she listened, but no one knew that what she was thinking at this time was something that had nothing to do with the performance of Chen Jiaban.

For some reason, she always vaguely felt that this time was also a good opportunity to leave.

King Xia Jun's birthday will be full of guests, and the guards in the mansion will be much more relaxed than before. As long as she can take advantage of the chaos and leave, she might be able to get rid of Zhao Yan!

The more Xiao Ruan thought about it, the more excited she became, and she asked Pei'er about the exact time of Xia Junwang's birthday banquet. Seeing Tweety'er walking towards them, she immediately said that she was not feeling well, and went back to her room.

King Xia's birthday is coming soon, and the entire palace has been busy setting up the stage three days in advance, and the whole palace is filled with a festive atmosphere.

Xu Shi was also busy celebrating the birthday of King Xia, but Zhao Yan seemed to have forgotten Xiao Ruan, and never showed up.

Seeing this, Xiao Ruan felt even more secretly happy, and looked forward to the birthday of Xiajun King even more.

On that day, Xiao Ruan was able to feel the bustle of the entire Xiajun Palace without being out of the hospital. The sound of gongs, drums and suona from outside could be faintly heard in the courtyard, and it seemed that even the air became restless.

Xiao Ruan held back the tension in her heart, finally waited until it was dark, and immediately walked out of the yard.

"Ma'am, where are you going?"

As soon as Xiao Ruan walked to the door, Cui'er stopped her: "It's getting dark, Ma'am is inconvenient, it's better to rest earlier."

Tweety looked at Xiao Ruan's stomach with concern, and didn't seem to hear the faint noise coming from outside.

"Didn't it be said that today is King Xia's birthday? Thanks to King Xia for taking such good care of me and His Highness Prince Huai, shouldn't I go to pay his respects to him?"

Xiao Ruan took it for granted, but felt a little guilty in her heart.

She had never expressed any gratitude to King Xia before, and she suddenly wanted to celebrate her birthday today, which inevitably aroused suspicion.

Sure enough, the corners of Cui'er's mouth twitched a few times immediately after hearing this, and finally she showed a troubled expression: "Madam calm down, the people in the front yard talk a lot, without the permission of the lord, I dare not take you to see the lord."

Hearing this, Xiao Ruan's heart skipped a beat, but he still said calmly: "Today is King Xia's birthday, and His Royal Highness and I will go to celebrate his birthday due to reason and reason. If your Highness is criticized by this, you may bear the responsibility rise?"

Xiao Ruan's voice was condensed, as if he was thinking about Tweety'er, but Tweety'er still looked hesitant, not daring to let her go easily.

"Take what?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded outside, Xiao Ruan turned around and saw that it was Zhao Yan who came in from outside.

Xiao Ruan thought that when she saw Zhao Yan, she would beg him to take her to the front yard with nice words, but because of Zhao Yan's slap last time, she couldn't laugh no matter what.

As if clearly aware of Xiao Ruan's embarrassment, Cui'er hurriedly said to Zhao Yan on her behalf: "Your Highness, Madam said that she wants to celebrate the birthday of the master, but this servant is not sure whether she should go with her."

Hearing this, Zhao Yan's eyes dimmed suddenly, and he walked slowly to Xiao Ruan, looked her up and down carefully, and suddenly spoke with an unclear tone.

"Are you going to celebrate the birthday of King Xia?"

Zhao Yan's gaze was pierced on his body like a steel needle, Xiao Ruan always felt that Zhao Yan had seen through his thoughts, and he tried to straighten his back while worried.

"Yes, I really don't want to celebrate any birthdays. I just want to go to the front yard to watch the performance of Lu's class, so what?"

Xiao Ruan tried his best to make himself appear to be seen through and aggrieved, and raised his eyes to Zhao Yan's expressionless eyes and said, "I'm locked up here every day, and I don't know what's going on outside. After all, a few theater troupes have come to the mansion, why can't I go and have a look?"

As Xiao Ruan's voice fell, there seemed to be an extremely slight sound of ice cracking in the air, and then Zhao Yan showed a "so it is" expression on his face.

"You want to watch the performance of the Chen's class. I asked them to come to the yard to perform for you. You are inconvenient. How can I let you go to the front yard to squeeze with outsiders?"

Zhao Yan ran into a wall at Xiao Ruan's place, and got the news that Huo Xun had come to Yunzhong, and was secretly deploying to expand his power through his birthday.But the atmosphere in the mansion was festive, but he always had a bad premonition in his heart.

Worried about what might be wrong with Xiao Ruan, he finally couldn't bear the torment in his heart and came to visit Xiao Ruan, just in time to hear that she was going to pay respects to King Xia.

He used his toes to think and knew that Xiao Ruan was not going to the front yard to pay homage to his birthday at all.

Moreover, there are a lot of people in Xiajun Wangfu today, if Xiao Ruan goes out, it is inevitable that her whereabouts will not be spread, and he will naturally not let Xiao Ruan go out like this.

However, as if he wanted to fight against him, Zhao Yan just finished speaking when a little maid came running outside.

"Your Highness, madam, the master sent a message to ask the servants to come and invite the two of you to watch the performance in the front yard."
