The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Cheng Niannian looked at Xiao Shao who was talking to the old couple with a smile, and said to Jiang Ruan: "The prince and concubine really love each other deeply, and the prince treats the concubine with sincerity, which is enviable." When she said this, her eyes did not look It showed other meanings, as if it was just a casual compliment, sincerely.

"Miss Cheng jokingly said that in the future, Miss Cheng will marry Mr. Ruyi, and she will be more than that." Jiang Ruan replied with a smile. After all, Cheng Niannian was also the best Princess Jinying in the emperor's mind, and she was also a rival in love, so Jiang Ruan would not have much affection for her. It's just that the daughter who has never been out of the cabinet must have blushed when she heard this, but Cheng Niannian was calm and not at all uncomfortable.

"Then don't bother the princess and the prince." Cheng Niannian nodded slightly, and she made a polite gesture with a kind of reserved beauty. When she passed by Jiang Ruan, she glanced at Jiang Ruan with a smile, and her eyes seemed a little meaningful.

Guessing about the smile of Yu Cheng Niannian, Jiang Ruan intuitively felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what was wrong, so she was so dazed that Xiao Shao didn't even notice it when she returned to her side after buying the lantern. Seeing her in a daze, Xiao Shao stroked her long hair and wondered, "Why are you in a daze all of a sudden?"

The women who watched Xiao Shao walk to Jiang Ruan's side immediately felt extremely discouraged when they saw Xiao Shao's actions like this. It turned out that he was a man with a sweetheart in mind, and immediately scattered like birds and beasts. Jiang Ruan came back to his senses, took the lantern from Xiao Shao's hand, and said, "I just saw Miss Cheng's family."

Xiao Shao frowned, probably didn't have much impression of the Miss Cheng family that Jiang Ruan was talking about, she thought for a long time before she realized, but she misunderstood Jiang Ruan's meaning, thinking that she did this because she was jealous. Then he paused, and said in a gentle voice: "Don't pay attention to outsiders." He took Jiang Ruan's hand in the palm of his hand and walked forward.

The two walked around the street a few more times, Jiang Ruan is not a little girl now, she can talk when she sees novelties, but Xiao Shao is thoughtful and her eyes are very sharp, but where Jiang Ruan's eyes mostly fall on As soon as a gadget came up, he immediately bought it with money. Even at the end, Jiang Ruan accidentally saw a piano and almost bought it. Jiang Ruan said it was inconvenient for Xiao Shao to give up, but even so, Xiao Shao still gave the silver ticket and asked someone to pack it and send it to the house tomorrow. Come here.

Ordinary passers-by don't know the identities of the two of them. Xiao Shao seldom shows up in front of everyone. Today, Jiang Ruan is acting like a well-behaved daughter. Others only think that they are newlyweds. . In fact, it's true, aren't they just newlyweds?

Jiang Ruan has never been treated like this in the past and present life. Even if he knew that the Jinying Palace was rich, he couldn’t help being a little stiff. Thinking about it, it’s no wonder Xiao Shao is indifferent and has the name of a traitor, and there are so many girls. A man who flocks to them, who is handsome and willing to ask for money to please women is probably still attractive.

The two of them didn't return home until it was late and the people on the street began to gradually disperse. Seeing the two returning, Steward Lin ordered the kitchen to bring the sweet soup. After Xiao Shao and Jiang Ruan had a drink, Steward Lin and Lian Qiao said that the General's Mansion had sent something. Since Jiang Quan was imprisoned, the General's Mansion had more contacts with Jiang Ruan, perhaps I also understand Jiang Ruan's taboo, although I don't contact them often, but the etiquette is always thoughtful during the holidays. Zhao Guang and Jiang Xinzhi were congenial, and the grandfather and grandson had a lot to say about the war. Jiang Xinzhi didn't even bother with the repair of the mansion bestowed by the emperor, and went to the general's mansion when he had time.

After Jiang Ruan finished washing and washing, he saw that Xiao Shao had also taken a bath, and was leaning on the bed to read a book after changing into a snow-white coat. If you have free time in a few days, come with me to the General's Mansion."

Xiao Shao complied naturally, and said: "Okay." The Shangshu's mansion is completely gone now, and the General's mansion is also Xiao Shao's father-in-law's house, so he must go there.

Jiang Ruan suddenly remembered something, and said again: "By the way, I want to use Jin Eryi to teach him to help me find someone."

Xiao Shao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who is it?"

"Tongfang lotus leaf in the mansion." Although the brazier in the room was still burning with charcoal, she still felt a little cold wearing only a thin coat, so Jiang Ruan unconsciously leaned against Xiao Shao's chest, Quan Quan Treat him like a big furnace. She frowned and said: "You should also know about the affairs of my mansion. Now the Shangshu Mansion is gone, but I haven't heard the news of Tongfang Lianye coming out to seek refuge with anyone. For so many years, she has been like a transparent person in the mansion. I always find it strange that I don't fight or grab, but I'm safe and sound..." It's not that there are people who don't fight or grab and are indifferent, but such people shouldn't appear in Shangshufu. Zhao Mei's innocent nature prevented her from surviving the battle in Shangshu Mansion's house, and Tongfang Lianye was able to survive under Xia Yan's nose, there must be a special method. I don't know why, Jiang Ruan always felt a little strange, maybe people who have died once have an inexplicable intuition about these things, Jiang Ruan can't ignore the lotus leaves no matter what.

Xiao Shao also saw her thoughts, so he covered her with the quilt a little more tightly, and muttered: "Leave this matter to me."

Jiang Ruan was also obedient, and leaned her head in his arms, saying: "There is also that Miss Cheng family, I saw something wrong today, I can't explain the feeling... I always feel a little uneasy."

Xiao Shao moved slightly, a smile flashed across his eyes, and he glanced at Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan noticed his gaze and said, "Don't think I'm talking nonsense. You didn't see it at that time, and if you saw it, you probably wouldn't see anything."

"Then how do you tell?" Xiao Shao asked in a low voice.

"Intuition." A woman's intuition is always inexplicable, and women always believe in their intuition for no reason. Jiang Ruan herself couldn't tell how she felt about Cheng Niannian, but the meaningful smile that Cheng Niannian showed her at the moment when she passed by was not that simple. This meeting was different from the last time on the hunting ground, something seemed to have quietly changed.

"Ah Ruan is so caring, but jealous?" Xiao Shao's cold face suddenly showed a narrow smile, Jiang Ruan's face became hot when he heard the words, and he said angrily: "When did I get jealous, it's just..." The voice did not finish The rest of the words were stuffed into their lips, and the room gradually warmed up again, as if even the snowflakes on the windows were about to melt.

At the same time, the sky prison in Beijing.

The jailer fiddled with the coals in the brazier. Even if a fire was lit, the cold and damp that had accumulated over the years in the dungeon would not be easily dispelled. Especially in this cold winter, it is very cold. It's hard to avoid some resentment to stay in such a ghostly place during the New Year's Eve. Several jailers gathered together, and there were some wine and vegetables piled on the table, and they were a little tipsy from drinking.

There seemed to be a low whimpering sound coming from the depths of the dungeon. It was said to be whimpering, but it seemed to be cursing, and the rustling echoes sounded a bit strange here. One of the jailers scolded a few words and said: "It's really fucking bad luck, you cry and mourn all the time."
