Chapter 136 Why Can't You Be Happy?

The Inviting Moon Palace is very large, and the side hall is not too far away, but it took half a stick of incense time.

"Miss, there are hot water servants guarding the room outside." Two maids guarded the door, and two other maids left the room after preparing their clothes, shoes and socks.

Ling Ruozhi closed the door and walked behind the screen, watching the steaming water slowly take off her clothes.

The soup in the dish had already soaked the clothes on her back and stained her skin. She wanted to wash her body to wash off the smell of vegetables, but Ling Ruozhi suddenly felt a little dizzy while sitting in the bathtub.

There seemed to be a muffled hum from outside the door, she shook her dizzy head and struggled to get out of the bathtub, grabbed her clothes and put them on her body, and her steps staggered a bit.

The door was opened, Ling Ruozhi covered her body with her clothes in embarrassment, and she saw a tall figure appearing behind the screen by the light.

Holding tightly the needle box that Ling Shengge handed her, the figure behind the screen was clearly a man, and a man who broke in suddenly would have no good intentions.

Ling Ruozhi opened the needle box as the figure slowly approached and held the end of a needle with her hand. The moment the man walked over from behind the screen, she took the needle and stabbed it.

A powerful big hand grabbed her slender wrist. Compared with a man, her strength was too small, and the needle fell to the ground as soon as she let go.

Before she could see clearly who the visitor was, she felt dizzy and fainted in the visitor's arms.

After Lu Lingzhao came out from Yueyue Palace, he rushed into the night. Cheng Zijin searched for a long time but couldn't find Lu Lingzhao. He was worried that Lu Lingzhao might cause trouble in the palace, so he planned to continue searching.

"Young Master Cheng." A little eunuch sneakily appeared in front of Cheng Zijin.

Cheng Zijin recognized that this little eunuch was from Jinlan Palace whom he had bought, and today this little eunuch sold him the news that Ling Guifei had taken a fancy to the second son of the Lan family.

"Looking for me at this time? Are you afraid of being discovered by Concubine Ling Gui?"

"Mr. Cheng, this servant has discovered a very important matter. I wonder if Mr. Cheng is interested? Is it related to the young lady of the Ling family?"

"Something related to the eldest daughter of the Ling family? What is it?"

The little eunuch's eyes were a bit evil, but he just smiled and didn't speak.

Cheng Zijin took out a bank note from his pocket, "500 taels."

The little eunuch took it like a money fan and saw clearly that it was really put into his arms, "I saw that the second son of the Lan family went to the side hall with the eldest girl of the Ling family."

Cheng Zijin's eyes turned cold, "Did you see clearly?"

"This servant's eyes can tell the male and female mosquitoes."

"Seeing that the eldest son of the Lu family asked him to find me in the side hall." Cheng Zijin jumped in front of the young eunuch and disappeared.

Seeing Cheng Zijin's figure disappear, the little eunuch frowned, and soon a man in white appeared behind him.

"You did a good job, master will reward you." Zuo Gong threw a copper coin to the little eunuch.

"Thank you, Grandpa Zuo."

Zuo Gong, known as Grandpa, frowned, "Find Lu Lingzhao and let him go to the side hall."

"Slave, go now." The little eunuch put away the copper coin piously. Getting this copper coin in the palace means that he will have an extra life in the future, but he only got an extra amulet after passing on a few words. His luck today is really good. good.

Lan Yantong looked at the girl in his arms with her eyes closed tightly and her eyelashes curled up. Although she was so thin that her chin was pointed, her snow-white and smooth skin was extremely tender, like ripe fruit.

Seeing Ling Ruozhi's usually dignified and noble appearance, the clothes are loosely draped over her body at this time, probably because the clothes were put on too quickly. After she suddenly fainted in his arms just now, the collar slid down to reveal a large area of ​​delicate collarbone .

Although he hasn't married a wife yet, Lan Yantong is not a vegetarian. He hasn't seen any kind of woman for so many years, but at this moment he found himself reacting to a woman who didn't even take off her clothes.

Concubine Ling Gui had already frankly mentioned to him about the marriage of the two families. The marriage between Cheng and Lu's family had been fixed and could not be changed. He was afraid that something would happen before marrying Ling Ruozhi.

When Ling Ruozhi woke up, he told her that someone sneaked into the palace and met her with bad intentions. He happened to save her and accidentally saw her body. With Ling Ruozhi's temperament, even if he didn't touch her, she would probably marry her. give him.

If she doesn't believe him and finds out the scapegoat arranged in advance, the life of that person's whole family is in his hands. As long as the person confesses and commits suicide, no one will know the truth of the matter.

Obviously he just wanted to put on a show, but Lan Yantong changed his mind the moment he put Ling Ruozhi on the bed.

Seeing Ling Ruozhi's soft and well-behaved appearance with her eyes closed, Lan Yantong stretched out her fingers and caressed her cheek. Her skin was as smooth as fine satin, which made him want to stop.

Leaning slightly to kiss her on the lips, suddenly there was a gust of wind behind her.

Ling Ruozhi fainted from exhaustion because of inhaling the colorless, odorless smoke. Lan Yantong had taken the antidote beforehand, and the smoke in the room had no effect on him.

Those who practiced martial arts reacted very quickly, Lan Yantong dodged the moment the strong wind came over.

Lan Yantong narrowed his eyes when he saw the person behind him, "Is it you?"

The corners of Cheng Zijin's mouth curled up and his eyes turned cold. He suddenly realized that he was also very cool sometimes.

"Lan Yantong, did you do what happened to Ling Zhao and my sister?"

Lan Yantong looked at him with a half-smile, "What is Mr. Cheng talking about? Why can't I understand?"

Cheng Zijin saw Ling Ruozhi lying on the bed, and saw her pupils tighten when her clothes were loose.

"Lan Yantong, you are really a beast."

"Young Master Cheng, you may have misunderstood. When I passed by, I saw four maids lying outside, so I came in to take a look. Unfortunately, I saw a person who wanted to do something wrong to Miss Ling, so I helped."

"Misunderstanding?" Cheng Zijin knew he was lying, seeing his calm face, Cheng Zijin really wanted to slap him to death.

"Why did Mr. Cheng come here? Could it be that he has some intentions for the young lady of the Ling family?" Lan Yantong chuckled after hearing the footsteps outside, "That's right, if Mr. Cheng's younger sister marries Lu Lingzhao as she wishes, then Mr. Cheng will marry Lu Lingzhao." There is hope to get the young lady of the Ling family. I am afraid that you arranged the matter of Mr. Lu and Miss Cheng, right? To facilitate their good deeds kills two birds with one stone."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Cheng Zijin has seen shameless people before, but he has never seen a person like Lan Yantong who no longer knows what shame is.

This kind of ability to tell nonsense with eyes open is really unique in the world.

There was a bang in front of the door, and Cheng Zijin saw Lu Lingzhao slamming his fist on the door.

He was startled, didn't Lan Yantong say what he said just now to Ling Zhao on purpose?
Lu Lingzhao looked at the scene in the room with a gloomy face, "Zijin."

Cheng Zijin, who could hear Lu Lingzhao's hoarse voice, smiled wryly, "Do you believe what he said?"

Lan Yantong didn't panic facing the two of them, "Although you have a good relationship, Mr. Lu, don't be fooled by the illusion. Cheng Manman wanted to marry you a long time ago, and Cheng Zijin deliberately tricked you into making you have a skin-to-skin relationship with his sister." , given the family background of your two families, you must marry Cheng Manman. As for Cheng Zijin, I am afraid that he has plans for the eldest lady of the Ling family, which man would not like the lady of the Dingyuan Houfu!"

Seeing the veins popping up on Lu Lingzhao's forehead, he didn't think it was a big deal and continued, "Cheng Zijin is the person who knows you best, as long as you marry his sister, he will have a chance to grab the woman you like. Do you think he is considered a big deal?" Kill two birds with one stone?"

Cheng Zijin is a person who seldom gets angry, after hearing what Lan Yantong said, he slapped him with his palm.

"Lan Yantong, I killed you today."

Lan Yantong dodged his palm, seeing that Lu Lingzhao hadn't made a move, and slowly retreated to the door.

Suddenly Lu Lingzhao slapped him on the back, and Lan Yantong avoided two people at the same time and was slapped accidentally.

After his chest twitched for a while, he swallowed back the blood that he almost spat out. After all, this was the palace and he couldn't leave any clues.

Lan Yantong made a false move and rushed out, Lu Lingzhao turned around and chased after him.

"Lingzhao, do you believe me?" Cheng Zijin grabbed Lu Lingzhao's arm.

Lu Lingzhao glanced at Cheng Zijin, "Few people know about Manman and I. Lan Yantong knows that there are only two possibilities for me to have a physical relationship with Manman. One is leaked by members of your Cheng family, and One is that the whole thing was planned by him."

Cheng Zijin didn't expect that Lu Lingzhao still had reason to analyze the matter at this time, he was shocked by Lu Lingzhao's next words while he was relieved.

Lu Lingzhao looked at him, "You don't have the brains to plot against me."

The corner of Cheng Zijin's mouth twitched, what the hell!

Although being trusted by him is a happy thing, why can't you be happy?
"Are you still chasing him?" Cheng Zijin glanced at Lu Lingzhao.

Lu Lingzhao turned her head to look at the person on the bed, "I'll go after her, but you... stay and protect her."

Seeing Lu Lingzhao leave Cheng Zijin was stunned for a moment, leaving him at this time?

"Sister..." Ling Ruozhi on the bed suddenly made a weak voice.

Cheng Zijin twitched his cheeks, closed the door and walked over. Seeing that Ling Ruozhi had opened his eyes, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Ling Ruozhi saw a figure in front of her in a daze, she pulled out the hairpin from her head and stabbed it directly at her throat.

Cheng Zijin was startled by her action and grabbed her hand, "What are you doing?"

The first time Ling Ruozhi woke up, she felt that her innocence was lost. Her only thought now was to die. Although her hand was grabbed, the hairpin in her hand did not let go, and she was stabbing to death with all her strength Own.

Cheng Zijin didn't expect that the eldest girl of the Ling family had such courage, that she wanted to die even if she wanted to die.

"Ling Ruozhi!" Cheng Zijin grabbed her chin and looked at her, "It's all right!"

Ling Ruozhi's eyes were out of focus for a while, but when her eyes gradually became brighter and she saw Cheng Zijin in front of her, her eyes turned red and she bit her lower lip.

Cheng Zijin was dumbfounded seeing Ling Ruozhi's look like she was about to cry after being wronged.

"Don't cry, that beast Lan Yantong has already been chased away by Ling Zhao, now you are safe and no one will harm you."

When Ling Ruozhi heard Cheng Zijin's words, she thought of Lan Yantong, who was gentle and polite, and thought of Lu Lingzhao, who came to propose her like an iceberg and divorced her.
