Perfect Encounter

At the banquet, An Ruoxi was frightened, fearing that Qian Pei would notice her. But the more I am afraid of something, the more things will come. Qian Pei not only paid attention to her, praised her, but also asked about her marriage arrangements. Not only asking, but also enthusiastically saying that I will also pay attention to whether there are suitable people.

An Ruoxi's chopsticks almost fell to the ground. This old master Qian is probably more considerate to her marriage than her own father, if she didn't have any evil ideas, she would definitely not believe it.

After Qian Pei finished asking about the marriage, An Ruoxi thought it was time to ask about her and her eldest sister's recent activities. Sure enough, Qian Pei's next sentence was "I don't know how the eldest girl is doing recently?"

An Ruoxi stared at the bowl in front of her, unable to taste it.

I heard Qian Pei say that it was a good story that the second girl and the eldest girl teamed up to capture the thief, which is really a good thing. There are two good daughters in An's house, and Master An taught them well. The second girl's foot injury seems to be fine now, but she can continue to walk with the eldest girl.

An Ruoxi didn't know whether Qian Pei was getting old or something, but she kept nagging the same thing every time. But I didn't see what he wanted to do. Every time I scare her with the marriage, every time I ask her to meet my eldest sister.

and then?

An Ruoxi remembered what An Ruochen said: You let him see your fear, and he will hold on to it firmly.

An Ruoxi was stunned and was secretly kicked by Tan Shi. An Ruoxi came to her senses and smiled at Qian Pei. She will continue to pretend to the elder sister and have better contact with the elder sister.

After a hard meal, An Zhifu wanted to discuss business with Qian Pei and Tingqu'er, so An Ruoxi hurriedly left.

Walking out of the hall, he breathed a sigh of relief, his footsteps became lighter, but he heard someone calling. Turning around to look, it was the Fourth Aunt Duan's.

"Second girl is free, go to my place and have a cup of tea to digest your food." Duan said unexpectedly.

An Ruoxi was taken aback. Although Fourth Aunt had been normal these days, she seemed to have accepted the reality that her fourth sister was missing and might never come back, but An Ruoxi was guilty and was always afraid of her. Now that she heard her invitation and was about to decline, Duan Shi grabbed her wrist.

Duan's days were peaceful and peaceful, but she lost a lot of weight. Her fingers had distinct knuckles, and it seemed that she had used a lot of strength to grab An Ruoxi's wrist. "Second Miss, come sit down, I have something to say to Second Miss." She leaned close to An Ruoxi and lowered her voice.

That posture made An Ruoxi afraid, but also curious. What can fourth aunt have to say to her? An Ruoxi's heart moved, could it be that Fourth Aunt has a clue about Fourth Sister?

An Ruoxi went.

Duan brought An Ruoxi into the house, made hot tea for An Ruoxi himself, and let the girl serve some snacks. With an amiable attitude and a friendly tone, he praised An Ruoxi's girl a few more words, rewarded her with snacks and let her go out to play with her girl.

All the servants were happy and full of laughter, An Ruoxi almost had the illusion of harmony in the house for a while.

After she and An Ruoxi were the only ones left in the room, Duan chatted a few words with a gentle smile, and then asked An Ruoxi why he and An Ruochen went to Liu's mansion to investigate the case that day?

An Ruoxi stroked her hair in embarrassment: "I never went to investigate the case with my sister, but just happened to meet."

Duan said with a smile: "I asked Mei Xiang out of curiosity, and she said that she met the eldest girl by chance that day. After the eldest girl went to the teahouse, the second girl waited outside. After waiting for a long time, she asked Mei Xiang to buy some incense and go home first. gone."

An Ruoxi froze, asking her girl for news about her, what was the meaning?

"I did think that Meixiang would go before I bought the incense. Then I said a few words to my sister. My sister said that I had something to do and let me go first. In the end, I ran into Liu's mansion killing people. I rushed to report The officer has gone." She paused, looked at Duan and said, "I have reported this matter to my father, and the whole house knows about it. What does Fourth Yiniang want to say?"

Mrs. Duan hurriedly said with a smile on her face: "Second Miss, don't misunderstand me, I don't mean anything else. I just heard that there is a secret passage in Liu's mansion, and many people have been locked up. I don't know if Second Miss has followed in. Have you seen it? Look at the people inside. Is there my family Fang'er?"

An Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, then stood up abruptly: "Could it be that Si Yiniang is saying that my eldest sister and I hid the fourth sister with outsiders? I can do such a thing?"

"No, no." Duan hurriedly pulled An Ruoxi back. "Second girl, don't be upset. I really don't mean anything else. It's not that there is no other way. I can only ask more questions. It's not about what's wrong with the second girl, but that **** An Ruochen is vicious and can do anything. I Do you think that she asked the second girl to report to the official, maybe it was a conspiracy, she herself is an official behind her back, so she still needs the second girl to report to the official? I am afraid that she is trying to cover up something and send the second girl away."

An Ruoxi didn't know what to say. He had no choice but to comfort him and said: "Si Yiniang is too worried. The prefect of the secret road and General Long sent people to seal it up, searched everything inside, and then blocked it with mud bricks. This is a well-known fact in Zhonglan City. If it is There's someone hiding inside, the fourth sister is hiding, how can we hide it?"

Duan was stunned, silent for a long time, then suddenly asked: "Did that **** ever tell you how she tricked Fang'er into leaving home? The concierge said how Fang'er got out without seeing anyone go out." ?”

An Ruoxi's heart beat fast, hesitated for a while, and said: "She never said it, and I don't know."

Duan looked at An Ruoxi in disappointment, just kept staring at her for a long time, and suddenly said: "I think Fang'er didn't leave this mansion. That **** An Ruochen killed Fang'er that day. Now, hide the body in her room..."

"Fourth aunt." An Ruoxi's goosebumps came out, she tried not to caress her arm, and said: "The day the fourth sister disappeared, the eldest sister was locked in the house."

"Yes." Duan replied after a while. "She's so vicious! So vicious!"

An Ruoxi didn't speak, but felt chills all over. She thought Si Yiniang was normal, but it turned out that she just learned to hide her madness. An Ruoxi couldn't sit still, she wanted to leave quickly.

At this time, Duan took out a small paper bag from the drawer at the side, and said to An Ruoxi: "Second Miss, we are a family. Fourth Yiniang entrusts you with something." She spoke with a very normal demeanor again.

An Ruoxi forced a smile and said, "Fourth Aunt, please tell me."

Duan stuffed the small paper bag into An Ruoxi's hand, her hand was cold and hard, An Ruoxi almost shivered.

Mrs. Duan smiled, and said in a very low voice, mysteriously: "Second girl is close to that bitch, it's very good. I think you even send some food to each other, it's very good. You take this medicine powder. Wait." When you go to the general's mansion again, put this medicine powder in that bitch's tea or snack..."

An Ruoxi screamed and jumped up in fright: "This is impossible."

Duan looked at An Ruoxi with a smile, and said: "However, you can talk together, you have to drink tea and have some snacks. Otherwise, you can ask the kitchen to make some delicious food for her to take, and put the medicine powder in it." Good. After she eats it, she will have a stomachache and die after a few hours. No one will know that you did it. You see, I am also kind-hearted, and I don’t want to hurt others, so I tell you this. "

"I went to see her and she died, how could she not know it was me!" An Ruoxi almost yelled. Is this woman crazy? She also said that she was kind-hearted, could it be that she wanted to say that she could have put it in the snack she brought to the eldest sister, if she ate it with the eldest sister, they would die together!

Duan grabbed An Ruoxi's hand, dragged her back to the chair, and pressed her hand on the table. Her hands were cold, and her strength was astonishing, An Ruoxi was so frightened that she didn't dare to struggle.

Duan shoved the paper bag into An Ruoxi's hand, and said with a smile: "Second girl is worrying too much, how could she think it was you. You are her real sister. How can a real sister kill a real sister? There will be no It is more poisonous than that bitch, only she will kill her own sister, others will not. You take it first, if you have a chance, let it go. If not, you find a chance and lead me to Ziyun Tower , or help arrange for me to meet her. I will go by myself for fear that the **** will not dare to see me. You take me, and she will meet. When I come to clean her up, it has nothing to do with the second girl."

An Ruoxi's hands were trembling, and she wanted to throw away the paper bag, but Duan Shi held her hand tightly.

"You take it first, go see her first, and see what happens, okay?" Duan's eyes were as cold as snakes, and his tone was very firm. An Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, not daring to say no, she nodded subconsciously.

Duan smiled, and finally let her go.

An Ruoxi didn't dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly left. When I got out the door, my heart was still beating wildly. She was afraid that others would see it, so she dared not let go of the paper bag at all. Without waiting for the girl, he hurried all the way back to the house, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Throwing the paper bag on the table, staring at it from a distance. Looking at it, I felt that my eyes hurt, like being poisoned, and I quickly threw it into the drawer. Seeing no more, feeling safe.

Then An Ruoxi suddenly changed her mind, and a terrible guess came to her mind. Since the fourth sister ran away from home, Duan has not been out of the house very much, and people have followed her in and out. If this paper bag is really poisonous, where did she get it? The servants must not dare to buy this for her. That is to say, she had this poison a long time ago. Who is it for? Didn't work?

The more An Ruoxi thought about it, the more frightened she became, and cold sweat broke out.

As soon as An Ruochen returned to Ziyun Tower, the guard said that General Long wanted to see her. An Ruochen was quite excited, when he inquired, the general was at the horse farm in the side yard. An Ruochen hurried over.

When we arrived at the side courtyard, we could see Long Da from afar. He was brushing the back of a bay horse. Standing beside a strong horse, he actually looks tall and strong.

The action of using the brush from the back of the horse's neck to the buttocks made the lines of his shoulders and arms stretch. His arms are long and his palms are big. They look powerful, but their movements are quite gentle.

At this moment, Long Da turned his head, found An Ruochen, and grinned at her. Only then did An Ruochen realize that she had been secretly looking at him for a long time.

"Come here." Long Da waved to her.

An Ruochen became nervous inexplicably, and clenched the snack box in her hand. The new chef of Dim Sum Zhaofu Restaurant made it. She thought it tasted good, and she couldn't help but want to bring a box for the general to try. Zong Zeqing once said in a chat with her that when he went out to kill the enemy, he only held the weapon before fighting, and felt nervous and excited, and his heart was pounding. She doesn't have a weapon in her hand now, and she feels her heart pounding even holding a snack, as if she is about to go into battle to kill the enemy.

An Ruochen bit her lip, what was she getting excited about?

After walking past, Long Da raised his eyebrows to look at her: "What's the matter with this expression?"

"I haven't seen the general for a long time, and I'm a little nervous." An Ruochen encouraged himself when he was talking nonsense.

"Long?" Long laughed loudly, "How long?"

It's been five days.

An Ruochen almost blurted out, but stopped in time. "The general goes out early and returns late every day. He is very busy, so he still needs to pay attention to his health." Look, she is speaking more tactfully now, how naturally the topic changes.

Long Dawei turned his head to look at her, An Ruochen's heart seemed to be ready to fight the enemy again.

"What is this?" In the end, Long Da asked about the box in her hand.

An Ruochen looked down and said, "Dim sum."

"Is it tasty?"

"Delicious." An Ruochen nodded. I am embarrassed to say that I brought it back to him on purpose. I'll secretly put him in his room later.

Long Da looked at her again.

An Ruochen subconsciously raised her head and stood up straight.

Long Da suddenly put on a straight face, and said: "I told you last time, let you learn how to ride a horse, how are you doing?"

An Ruochen: "..." The general said that at the time, and left the next day. After that, he didn't mention it when he came back, so she forgot about it.

Isn't that a joke or an order?

An Ruochen looked at the horse, and subconsciously took a step back.

The pain of falling off the horse is still fresh in my memory. And fortunately, it was just pain, no broken arm or leg, no brain and chest stepped on by two feet, it is simply extremely lucky! When she went to burn incense and get a peace talisman, she kowtowed to the Bodhisattva twice.

Seeing her timidity, Long Da raised his eyebrows: "Come here!"

An Ruochen took two steps forward. Subconsciously, she hugged the snack box tightly to protect her chest. She remembered that the general's **** horse could spin back kicks, but this red horse was smaller, so she didn't know how good it was.

"Touch it." Long Da pointed to the bay red horse with his chin. His tone has always been giving orders, and he has the feeling of ordering her to be a disciple in the past.

An Ruochen still hesitated, but was stared at by the dragon, and hurriedly took another step closer to the horse, stretching his arm to the furthest length before touching the horse a little.

The horse moved, An Ruochen jumped back as if kicked.

Long Da was annoyed, so he simply reached out to grab her hand and pulled her to his side.

An Ruochen was startled, her heart beating the war drum.

The general's palms are large and warm.

An Ruochen's heart soared, he jumped and kicked, and began to kill the enemy.

"Come here, stand closer, your fear will affect it."

An Ruochen blinked, what are you talking about? right. horse.

She's not scared now, she's just a little excited.

Long Da held her hand and put it on the horse. The horse didn't move this time, its fur was smooth, moist and warm. An Ruochen followed the strength of Long Da's grip on her hand, and gently stroked the horse's back.

Long Da let go of her hand, but she was still touching and touching vigorously.

"Do you like it?" Long Da asked.

"Like." It made her stand very close to the general.

"It's a good horse, gentle and strong, stable and enduring." Long Dao said.

"Yeah." An Ruochen felt that he was the same, if only the general admired her as much as he admired this horse.

"I picked it myself, and it took me a while." Long Da said again.

"It's really a good horse." An Ruochen replied, anyway, it's right to flatter the general.

Long laughed. An Ruochen's heart began to pound again. The general looks so pretty when he smiles, does he know that?

"You give it a name."

"Battle drum." An Ruochen didn't even think about it. Boom, boom, boom, that's the drum of war.

Long Da: "..."

An Ruochen patted the horse's head lightly. Zhan Drum, what a great name, how majestic, worthy of a general. War drum, war drum, although you are not as tall and strong as that **** horse, but the general personally picked you, if you work hard, you will surely please the general.

"Why is it called a war drum?"

"How majestic and pleasing." An Ruochen blinked his eyes at Long Da, his eyes full of anticipation, "Is this name acceptable?" When the general rode his horse out in the future, others praised him, "This horse is really handsome, What's your name?" The general replied, "War Drum." Others said it was a good name, who could come up with it? The general replied: "My house is in charge."

Oh, what a delight.

An Ruochen pursed her lips and smiled, looking at the war drum, she felt that it was a bit handsome.

"As long as you think it's good." Long said.

An Ruochen nodded vigorously. She felt great.

"The war drum is a girl."

An Ruochen: "..."

"It's for you to ride."

An Ruochen: "..."

Wait, wait a minute.

Miss An, your horse is really obedient and beautiful, what's your name? What? Drums of war? Isn't it a girl? Who named it? ? ?

This situation is completely different.

"Uh..." An Ruochen stared blankly at the war drum, then at Long Da. Long Da wasn't looking at her, he was beckoning the groom to come over and saddle the war drum.

An Ruochen looked at the war drum again, and comforted it in his heart. In fact, the name is quite good, right?

War Drum snorted and looked at her.

An Ruochen and Zhan Gu stared at each other until the groom brought the horse-riding stool.

Long Da signaled An Ruochen to get on the horse with his eyes.

An Ruochen hugged her snack box tightly.

Long stared at her.

How expensive is this dim sum? And don't give him food.

An Ruochen judged the situation, it seems that General Long is quite free today, he has to learn how to ride a horse. It is true that there were very few opportunities to see him during this time, so today is not a disadvantage. Just ride as long as you ride, if you fall, the general will definitely follow her.

An Ruochen trotted all the way, put the snack box by the wall, and then ran back. The general stood beside the war drum and waited for her, tall and straight, handsome and heroic. Boom, boom, boom, An Ruochen's heart was beating again. She ran to the horse with blushing cheeks, stepped on the horse stool, and turned over gracefully...

"Ahhh~~~" An Ruochen's scream was quite indecent.

If General Long hadn't grabbed her belt and helped her up, she would have turned over to the other side of the drum by now.
