slave like jade

Chapter 79
After the crown prince heard about Mu Ziyue's accident, he went to the Mu mansion to witness her appearance and was frightened. From then on, he never mentioned her as the crown princess, and never set foot in the Mu mansion to visit.

Although Mu Ziyue's misfortune this time was purely her own fault, Mu Lingzhi still couldn't bear it. He was different from the prince, and the more he felt worried about Mu Ziyue at this time, he went to Mu's residence to see her every day and comfort her. Moreover, famous doctors from all over the world were recruited to diagnose and treat her, but unfortunately the effect was not great.

On this day, Yu Ruyan went to Wuwei Medical Center to visit An Ge as usual, the severe cold passed, and the weather became warmer day by day.Seeing the birds singing and the fragrance of flowers outside, Yu Ruyan was going to take An Ge to the countryside for a walk to relax, when he met Yue Yu when he went out, his clear eyes rolled slightly on them, and he said with a smile: "Are you going out?"

Yu Ruyan smiled and said: "Brother An has been staying in the medical center and has not gone out. Now that the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, I heard that the winter jasmine flowers in Yunying Mountain in the western suburbs are blooming just right. I want to take Brother An to have a look."

Hearing this, Yue Yu's face changed slightly.

Yu Ruyan turned her head back to help An Ge arrange the hairpin on her head, but she didn't notice the change in Yue Yu's face. She turned her head to look at the vacant medical hall, and couldn't help asking: "The medical hall seems to be free today. If you are interested, why don't you go out for a walk together?"

Yue Yu frowned slightly and said slowly: "The spring is warm and cold, and the weather seems to be getting warmer, but the cold is still there. Brother An's health has just improved. I suggest that she not go out for the time being, and rest here."

Hearing this, Brother An's excited little face couldn't help but darken. Seeing Yu Ruyan, she secretly blamed herself for being reckless. She wanted to take her out without asking him about Brother An's condition. She couldn't help but say with guilt. : "I was reckless, I didn't take care of Brother An's body, we won't go."

After finishing speaking, she sent Brother An back to the room, comforted her in a low voice, and promised her to take her out when the weather was warmer.

Looking at the background of her departure, Yue Yu sighed slightly inaudibly——

Qingcha had reported to him several times, and for several days, there were suspicious figures walking around the medical center. At first, he thought it was ordinary thieves who were planning to set up Wuwei Medical Center, but later he discovered that those people actually It was the medical clinic that followed Yu Ruyan, and every time Yu Ruyan left the medical clinic, those figures disappeared.

His mind was transparent, and after a little thought in his heart, he knew that these people must be related to Mufu.

Thinking about Mu Ziyue's vicious mind, she must pay every penny, and she must retaliate. This time she has suffered such a big change, and this deep hatred must be remembered on Yu Ruyan again.

A cold light flashed across his clear eyes, seeing Xiaodao coming in from the outside, he beckoned him to come over and whispered instructions in his ear.

After getting to know Yue Yu, he became the first person that Xiaodao trusted and respected besides Yu Ruyan.He inexplicably felt kindness and trust from Yue Yu, so he usually listened to Yue Yu's words, let alone let him protect Yu Ruyan's safety.

Hearing that someone was following Yu Ruyan secretly, Xiaodao's face suddenly showed hostility, and he drew his sword and rushed out without thinking, but was stopped by Yue Yu.

He looked at Yue Yu with a puzzled expression and said fiercely: "Why did you stop me? Whoever dares to harm my sister, I will definitely not forgive him."

Seeing his impulsive look, Yue Yu explained: "The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. If you go out like this, you will only scare the snake. Now we don't know what those people are planning, so the only way for now is to let you stay by her side. Take a good look at her."

According to Yue Yu's arrangement, Yu Xiaodao changed his clothes into ordinary coarse cloth clothes, put on a hat and lowered the brim of his hat, and pretended to be an ordinary coachman.

Yue Yu was very satisfied with his modification, turned his eyes to his scabbard, frowned and said: "Your sword is too eye-catching, don't use it for now, use an ordinary sword instead."

Xiaodao once showed him his long sword, so Yue Yu knew that his sword was not an ordinary sword, and it was easy to reveal his identity. Just imagine, would a coachman carry a precious sword?
As long as it is for Yu Ruyan's good, Xiao Dao is willing to obey, and after everything is done, Yu Ruyan just came out of Brother An's room, and she couldn't help but be taken aback when she saw Xiao Dao's appearance.

She looked at the knife, her watery eyes turned to Yue Yu, and she instantly understood that it was Yue Yu who arranged all this.

Looking at her questioning gaze, Yue Yu slowly said: "There have been robbers in Yunying Mountain recently, and the security in the Eastern Capital has not been very peaceful recently, so I let Xiao Dao pretend to be by your side to take care of you. He is good at martial arts and protects you." Should be more than enough!"

Xiaodao was impatient, and wanted to tell her about the stalking in one breath, but Yue Yu stopped him with a look, so he had to change his words: "Sister, I happen to be fine, and I will drive your carriage back home from now on."

Something flashed in Yu Ruyan's mind, she guessed that there must be something Yue Yu was hiding from her, but he didn't want to say it, and she couldn't force it, anyway, knowing that he would not harm her, trusting him would be right up.

The carriage stopped at the back gate of the palace, Yu Ruyan stopped Xiaodao who was about to drive away, stared at him seriously, and said seriously: "What's going on? What did you and Young Master Yue hide from me?"

Xiaodao turned his neck to the side, pouted and said, "Didn't you just say that? It's just that the public security is not good recently and I'm worried about your safety!"

Yu Ruyan straightened his face angrily, and said solemnly: "It seems that you are listening to Mr. Yue better than my elder sister. Since this is the case, you will always follow your elder brother from now on, don't follow me anymore. me."

After all, he walked towards the door without looking back.

Xiaodao was in a hurry, and begged for mercy: "Sister, how can you say such a thing, older brother is better, but my sister will always be the first in my heart, and no one can replace it."

Yu Ruyan turned around and looked at him silently, "Huh? Really?"

"Really." Xiaodao was extremely serious, he no longer dared to hide Yu Ruyan's secrets, and told all about the stalking in one breath.

Hearing this, her curved willow-leaf eyebrows twitched, was someone following her?

Almost in an instant, she thought of Yue Yu together——

If anyone in Dongdu hates her the most and wants to kill her the most, who else is there besides Miss Mu?

She still remembered the night when she and Mu Lingzhi sent her home for medical treatment on the Hanrui Festival. How can she not understand?

She wanted to ruin Yu Ruyan's appearance, but she didn't expect to ruin her own appearance instead. For her, this is probably more uncomfortable than killing her.

Looking at her expression, Xiaodao guessed that she already understood who was following her. Remembering Yue Yu's advice, although Xiaodao wished to see her every day, but thinking of her safety, he still said seriously: "Brother Yue said , you don’t want to leave the mansion casually in the near future, and stay in the palace.”

Seeing the hesitation on her face, Xiaodao knew that she was worried about Brother An's condition, so he couldn't help but said anxiously: "Brother An is taken care of by Brother Da, and I am here, and her condition is much better, so you can rest assured and stay in the house." Don't go there, don't go there, do you hear me?"

Seeing Xiaodao's worried face, Yu Ruyan nodded solemnly, and while she was thinking about it, she suddenly thought of something, and said earnestly: "Xiaodao, after you return to the medical clinic, take good care of Brother An. Don't let the people in Mufu find her."

Xiaodao understood what she meant, his expression changed, and he immediately jumped into the carriage and rushed to the hospital.

In the next few days, Yu Ruyan stayed in the palace and did not go out. A few days passed, and she did not see any news from Xiaodao. She was worried and comforted herself secretly. Brother An and the others are all fine, and nothing bad happened.

Mu Lingzhi went to see Mu Ziyue in the Mu Mansion in the afternoon, and agreed to come back and have dinner with her, but when it was dark, he didn't come back, thinking that he might have something to do, so Yu Ruyan ate it by herself Something to sit in the pavilion in the yard and wait for him to come back.

Suddenly, there was a sound at the gate of the courtyard. She thought it was Mu Lingzhi coming back, and rushed to meet him, but she didn't expect it to be Chen Bo.

Seeing her coming out, Uncle Chen's nervous expression relaxed for a moment, he glanced at the nursing home next to him, and said, "Girl, there seems to be a rat infestation in the house in your garden, don't bite any valuable things, I will I came here to let you know, do you want to go back and have a look?"

It was getting dark, and Uncle Chen came to her so hard because there were rats in the bungalow in her garden?
Yu Ruyan couldn't help looking at Uncle Chen suspiciously, and saw that his expression was normal, but there was anxiety hidden in his slightly frowned brows, as if something important had happened, she thought that maybe it was Yan Fei or Chen Ma who came out. What's the matter, so I didn't ask any more questions, and hurried away with him.

Along the way, Chen Bo's expression was unusually serious, his lips were tightly pursed, and the usually calm person was so nervous that his face turned red, but there was an indescribable light shining in his eyes, Yu Ruyan asked him what was the matter, Chen Bo Looking back at her fixedly, his eyes were full of doubts and inquiries, his lips moved a few times but no sound came out, and finally he said in a muffled voice: "Girl, follow me, there is someone who wants to see you."

The two rushed to the bungalow, Uncle Chen directly led her into his own home, after he knocked on the door three times cautiously, Mama Chen opened the door after a long while, seeing them coming, she anxiously took Uncle Chen and Yu Ruyan away. Pulling into the room, he closed the door behind his back and said anxiously: "It's finally here, he can't wait any longer."

When Chen Bo heard this, he was even more anxious than Yu Ruyan. He opened the curtain and entered the inner room. Yu Ruyan followed him in. When she saw the young man lying on the bed in the inner room, her pupils suddenly widened——

The person lying on the bed in Chen Bo's house turned out to be a knife!

What shocked her even more was that a cold feather was inserted into the right leg of the knife, and the arrow passed through from behind, piercing the entire thigh. The blood flowed out, making Yu Ruyan dizzy for a while.

The knife was injured!
Here, what happened?
Before he had time to think about it, Xiaodao had already endured the pain on his body and got up, his face was pale, and he said in a hurried voice: "Sister, Brother An..." The words almost blurted out, at the last moment, he glanced at the room The Chen family took three mouthfuls, and finally swallowed the words in their throats.

Yu Ruyan already understood what happened in her heart, she signaled Xiaodao to calm down with her eyes, turned around and thanked Uncle Chen: "Thank you Uncle Chen for taking care of my younger brother, I will take him away now." After finishing speaking, she went forward to help Xiaodao , ready to quietly take him out of the mansion to look for Yue Yu in the Wuwei Medical Center.

As soon as Xiao Dao moved, he was sweating profusely from the pain. Uncle Chen had been looking at him with an unbelievable expression. Seeing that he was wounded and about to leave, his brows and eyes flashed anxiously, and he said quickly: "It's getting dark, there is something wrong with him. Where can the injury go? Why don't you stay here and let me treat the wound for him."

Yu Ruyan hesitated for a moment when she heard the words, she was afraid that Uncle Chen and the others would know Xiaodao's identity, but thinking of the wounds on his body, she was even more worried that something would happen to him. She was worried that Uncle Chen and the others would not help her because they were afraid of getting into trouble for no reason We took care of Xiaodao together, and now seeing that he offered to help, even though I had some scruples in my heart, I couldn't help but agree when I thought of Xiaodao's injury.

Unexpectedly, Xiaodao himself disagreed. When he was wounded and sneaked into the mansion to find Yu Ruyan just now, he accidentally alarmed the old man next door because of his leg injury. He was afraid that he would expose himself, so he drew his sword and stepped forward without thinking, and then ordered What he didn't expect was that a servant who cleaned the garden in the small palace was so skilled in martial arts that he couldn't beat him, and was even restrained by him.

Originally, he would hand him over if he caught him, but he didn't expect the old man to bring him into his house and let him recuperate here.

Thinking of the strange way he looked at him, Xiao Dao felt uncomfortable all over. He stood up on one foot, pretending to be indifferent, and said, "I'm fine, but I got shot by an arrow, and I'll be fine if I pull it out. Sister, let's go."

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the room first and came to Yu Ruyan's room ten meters away.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Uncle Chen couldn't help catching up to the first two steps, staring blankly at the leaving figure, with an expression of disbelief in shock, and staring at Chen Ma who was also shocked at the same side. I can't believe it.

Yu Ruyan came to her room holding the knife. As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to sit down and said: "Sister, they captured Brother An! I chased him to the Mu Mansion to rob him, but I didn't expect them to ambush the good man long ago." Waiting for me to be caught is really hateful." After finishing speaking, Xiaodao punched the wall angrily, almost bleeding from his hand.

Her heart trembled when she heard the words, her heart sank with a thud, and her eyes dimmed.

She knew that Mu Ziyue had finally discovered An Ge, and they must have captured An Ge to get the secret about her identity from her.

"Did you see Brother An when you went to the palace? How is she doing now?" Yu Ruyan was already very fragile when she thought that Brother An was sick. ?She couldn't help being anxious, but at the same time she could understand why Xiao Dao would be so reckless to break into the house and rob people.

"No, the Prime Minister's Mansion is very big. I searched many places but couldn't find Brother An. They deliberately used Brother An as a trap to catch me. How could they let me find her easily?" Thinking of falling into a trap designed by others Here, Xiaodao became more and more annoyed as he talked.

Hearing this, something flashed through her mind, Yu Ruyan's face turned pale instantly, beads of sweat popped out of her forehead like peas, her heart sank endlessly——

If it was true what Xiaodao said, Mu Ziyue deliberately used Brother An as a bait to catch Xiaodao, how could he escape so easily?
Also, why didn't she just tie An Ge to identify herself in front of Mu Lingzhi, why did she spend so much effort to grab the knife?

While thinking about it, a light flashed through my mind——

That's right, Brother An is loyal to him, and he will never betray him, so even if Mu Ziyue catches Brother An, there is nothing he can do, so she sets up a trap to catch the knife.

However, based on her understanding of Mu Ziyue, she must have hated herself now, so how could she let Xiao Dao, who had fallen into the trap, escape?
Is it—

"Xiaodao, did you find anything unusual after you escaped all the way?" Yu Ruyan seemed to think of something in her heart, her heart trembling uncontrollably, and she looked at Xiaodao anxiously.

Xiaodao thought about it carefully for a while, and suddenly his face changed drastically. Without saying a word, he stood up and dragged his injured right leg and walked out with difficulty. Yu Ruyan stopped him in surprise and said, "Where are you going?"

After all, Xiaodao is smart. Before he was injured and hunted, he ran into the palace to look for Yu Ruyan without thinking too much, but now that she asked her about it, and carefully recalled the actions of those officials during the hunt, it seemed that he deliberately blocked other people. The only way to leave the road on the Wangfu side for him to escape, so he understood instantly——

Annoyance and resentment alternated on his face, fierce colors welled up in his dark eyes, and he said in a hateful voice: "Sister, we fell into Mu Ziyue's trap, she let me escape on purpose, and let the officers and soldiers take me to the palace I was rushing here, but in a moment of confusion, I even talked to her twice. Her goal is you, so I have to leave the house immediately, so as not to hurt you. "

At this moment, Xiaodao was still thinking of her wholeheartedly, Yu Ruyan's heart was burning hot, but when she thought of Mu Ziyue's conspiracy, her whole body trembled, her teeth clucked——

Sure enough, she guessed right, Mu Ziyue's target was only her in the end.

If it is as expected, Mu Ziyue will bring people to the palace to search for people immediately!

Seeing her suddenly flustered, Xiaodao asked in surprise: "What's wrong with sister?" He turned to think of the trouble he had caused Yu Ruyan, his heart hardened, his dark eyes were full of hostility, and he said harshly: "Sister Don't be afraid, I'll rush out of the mansion right now, and kill anyone who dares to stop me, I'm going to kill that poisonous girl back to the Prime Minister's mansion!"

Seeing that Xiaodao was about to leave impulsively, she held him back desperately, and said through gritted teeth: "It's too late, I'm afraid Mu Ziyue has already set up a net outside, and you won't be able to step out of the palace. From now on, you are obedient and stay there." , don’t act rashly again.”

Time passed bit by bit, and the room was eerily quiet.Xiaodao's face was pale and full of anxiety, seeing his bloody body, Yu Ruyan felt heartbroken and flustered, like an ant on a hot pot, desperate.

Now, Brother An is in Mu Ziyue's hands, and the knife has fallen into her trap, and Mu Ziyue will bring people to the palace to search for people soon!What about the knife?What is she going to do?How can An Ge be rescued?How did she break this deadlock?

Seeing the water tank placed in the corner of the room, she walked over without thinking, and buried her face in the water——

The icy cold water soaking her face instantly calmed her down, and her restless and anxious heart also calmed down, her watery eyes flashed, and her face gradually returned to normal.

Quickly came to Xiaodao, time was running out, and now the first thing was to quickly help Xiaodao pull out the long arrow on his leg.

Glancing at Xiaodao with a pale face, she felt sorry for her, and said in a trembling voice, "Xiaodao, my sister is going to help you pull out the arrow, you... just be patient."

Although she has always been brave and resolute, she has never experienced this kind of thing, not to mention that the injured person is a knife, and the care is chaotic. She dare not touch the cold long arrow at all.

But there is no other way, he can't leave the mansion, and he can't go to Yue Yu's place either.And this arrow can no longer stay on his leg, I am afraid that the leg of Xiaodao will be useless after a long time.

Seeing this, Xiaodao struggled to squeeze out a smiling face, and comforted: "Sister, don't be afraid, I believe in you! Come on."

Seeing the tenacity of the knife, Yu Ruyan's eyes were sore and uncomfortable. The next moment, she gritted her teeth and picked up his sword and cut off the arrow with a 'shua' sound, holding the arrow feather firmly with both hands, and slammed the arrow with a low cry. Yari pulled the knife from the leg.

Blood splashed everywhere, Yu Ruyan was so scared that she couldn't breathe and her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't help herself, but she still gritted her teeth and took the cloth strips torn from her dress and carefully bandaged his wounds.

From the beginning to the end, Xiaodao didn't hum, but big beads of sweat rolled down his face. His handsome face was as white as a piece of paper. Seeing Yu Ruyan looking at him worriedly, he gritted his teeth and forced a smile. : "This little injury and pain can't help me, sister, don't worry!"

Seeing her thin figure trembling non-stop, Xiao Dao showed annoyance on his pale face: "Sister... I'm sorry, I... I've caused trouble for you!"

His voice was very low, but he still heard every word in Yu Ruyan's ears.

She felt warm in her heart, and compassionately helped him wipe off the sweat stains on his face, and said heartbroken: "My sister doesn't blame you, but my sister just loves you for being injured and suffering, so you must remember in the future, remember to calm down when things happen, and don't be impulsive again! "

Xiao Dao rested his face in her palm, and said in a nasal voice: "Sister, I will definitely listen to you in the future, and I will remember to discuss with you when I have something to do, and I will never be rash again."

Kankan arranged Xiaodao, and there were boiling voices from the entrance of the mansion in front, Yu Ruyan looked up, and saw countless torches coming towards her, she turned back and handed Xiaodao a relieved smile, turned around go out.

"Sister!" Looking at her thin and decisive background, Xiaodao had a bad premonition in his heart, he couldn't help calling her out, and asked worriedly: "Sister, can you really handle it?"

Yu Ruyan turned her head and smiled lightly, her watery eyes sparkled, and she said firmly, "Trust me, sister is sure."

She walked forward with firm steps, her thin back was straightened, and there was a voice in her heart that kept supporting her——

She wants to protect the knife, and she wants to rescue An Ge who is in prison!
Mu Ziyue, in order to deal with me, you didn't hesitate to hurt innocent people. I will definitely ask you for all the injuries suffered by Brother An and Xiaodao!
