Chapter 385~386 Kidnapping
However, Ruan Yunting put herself in the situation, if this happened to her, how would she choose? Is it important for a person she cares about, or for those who are not?If she really fell in love, what did others say to her?All she cares about is that person's feelings.
People are different, so she can't impose her thoughts on Ruan Yunlan, but she will explain what should be said.
"Brother Lan, what do you value more, the feelings of the person you like, or what the people around you say about you?"
Ruan Yunlan was stunned immediately when she heard the words.These words echoed countless times in my heart.If he doesn't go, Princess Qingge will definitely be sad.Can he be willing?
In comparison, he seemed to be more afraid of Han Qingge's sadness.
"Sister, but others say that I am a dragon and a phoenix, which will inevitably bring down your reputation."
Hearing what he said, Ruan Yunting had already fully understood what he was thinking.Pulling Ruan Yunlan's hand, she turned around and ordered: "Chanjuan, go to Famous House, ask Ting Rong and Ting Lan to fetch Lord Lan's most expensive and best robe, and match the shoes and socks with you quickly." Bring it."
"Yes."
"Red bean, go prepare hot water for washing."
"Yes."
The two maidservants left in response.Ruan Yunting looked at Ruan Yunlan, and said firmly: "Brother Lan, you are the smartest person, why are you still struggling with this issue? My brother's lifelong happiness, talking to irrelevant people for no reason, What is more important in my heart?"
"Sister..." Ruan Yunlan was moved, and held Ruan Yunting's with her slender hand.
Not long after, Hongdou brought in the brass thin-mouth hot water pot, and mixed warm water in the brass basin on the washbasin shelf.
"Girl, the water is ready."
Ruan Yunting smiled, and took the rose fragrance she usually used to clean her face to help Ruan Yunlan wash her face, and then took the colorless and odorless ointment to even out his face.Ruan Junlan sat in front of Ruan Yunting's dowry box and let her sister play with her, and she let her loosen his long hair and tied it up for him.
Chanjuan also took Ting Rong with her at the moment, bringing Ruan Junlan's robe and boots.Ruan Yunting chose a crescent-white robe embroidered with bamboo patterns in silver thread for him, and matched it with a lotus-colored white fur collar cloak.What hangs on the body is a jasper bamboo jade pendant.The wood praise on the head was also replaced with a jade hairpin.
Ruan Yunlan usually dresses casually and never pays attention to these details.Now Ruan Yunting dressed him neatly by herself, looked at Ruan Yunlan who was already a head taller than her, and said in amazement: "My younger brother is really the most beautiful man!"
Ruan Yunlan was originally very similar to her in appearance, but as he grew older, his facial features were much deeper than Ruan Yunting's, with sharper edges and corners, long brows with willow leaves, deep and big eyes, a thin nose with thin lips, and the center of the eyebrows A little red mole is even more colorful.The one in front of him was a truly feminine and beautiful young man.
Ruan Yunting has seen many handsome men, and Jun Lanzhou is the best among them, but now it seems that he is not as good as Ruan Yunlan.Because Ruan Yunlan was too similar to her, even when they met, she seldom paid attention to his appearance. Now she put aside her identity and looked at him carefully, and then she understood why Princess Qingge fell in love with Ruan Yunlan at first sight.I'm afraid it's his appearance, which is also the primary reason.
"Okay, brother Lan, go to the palace quickly, so that the county chief won't cry later." Ruan Yunting adjusted the strap of his neckline for him.
Ruan Yunlan blushed, but nodded firmly: "Sister, I'm leaving."
"Ok!"
Ruan Yunting stood on the porch, watching Ruan Yunlan's figure leave the Jingsi Garden quickly, and suddenly felt a feeling of "my family has a girl who has just grown up".
I hope everything goes well for him and Princess Qingge.
With nothing else to do in the afternoon, Ruan Yunting took a rest and found a book to read. Seeing that it was dinner time, the sky was getting dark.Chanjuan took the little girls to the small kitchen to pick up food boxes.
Suddenly, Zhao Linmu's family in the yard yelled and cursed: "Oh! Who is it that kills thousands of knives and throws things around!"
Ruan Yunting's thoughts were interrupted, she put down her book and opened the window to look out. She saw Zhao Linmu's family wearing a dark green cross-collar cotton jacket, bending over to pick up something from the ground.The distance was far and the sky was dark. Ruan Yunting couldn't see what he picked up, but could only vaguely see that it looked like an envelope.
"Sister Zhao, what's the matter?"
"Girl." Zhao Linmu's family looked up at Ruan Yunting, walked up the steps quickly, lifted the curtain and entered the back room.
"Look, girl. It's a letter. It's heavy inside. I don't know what's in it."
Ruan Yunting took the envelope to the lamp, opened it and looked, her expression changed instantly.What was placed in the envelope was a jasper hairpin that had been broken into three pieces!
This is clearly for Ruan Yunlan's hairpin at noon!
Ruan Yunting's heart beat violently, and her hands trembled unconsciously. The movement of unfolding the letter paper was very simple, but it took her a long time to do it.The words on the letter paper are concise and to the point.
"Ruan Yunting, if you want Ruan Yunlan's life, go to Xiaocang Mountain, forty miles outside the North City Gate, alone. After Haishi, he will die!"
Ruan Yunting's eyes went dark, and she felt that the floor was swaying, and she almost fell, but fortunately, Zhao Linmu's family quickly helped her.
"Girl, what's wrong with you! Girl!"
There was a momentary blankness in Ruan Yunting's mind, and her ears were buzzing. What she heard was the sentence "Sister, I'm leaving" that Ruan Yunlan said before going out in the afternoon, and what she saw was the blooming smile on his handsome face. smile.
Is this a dream, or reality?
Shaking his head vigorously, when he opened his eyes, the letter paper floating on the ground still existed, and under the dim light, the worry on Zhao Linmu's face was real.
"Girl, do you want your servant to invite the doctor?"
Ruan Yunting raised her hand to signal that she didn't need it, took a few deep breaths, and forced herself to calm down. If she lost her footing at this time, who else could save Brother Lan?
"moon."
"Chanjuan went to pick up the food box."
Grabbing a cloak casually, picking up the letter on the ground and the jade hairpin that was broken into three pieces, Ruan Yunting didn't care whether the snow outside would get her shoes and socks wet, so she walked down the steps quickly, and said as she walked: When she comes back, let her wait for me outside the Pine Age Hall."
"Yes."
Zhao Linmu's family should be, and followed a few steps worriedly.However, Ruan Yunting didn't give orders, and she couldn't say any more, she just waited for Chanjuan's return with peace of mind.
Ruan Yunting rushed into the Pine Age Hall, and before the little girl could tell her the story, she raised the curtain and entered the room by herself.
"Ancestor!"
At the moment, the old lady is being served by Han Bin's family in the Snapper.Hearing the voice from outside, he asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"
"Old ancestor." Ruan Yunting had rushed to her at this moment, plopped on her knees, "Brother Lan is tied up!"
"What?" The old lady was stunned.
Ruan Yunting presented the letter and Yuzan, explained the situation just now, and said: "Yuzan belongs to brother Lan, and the banquet in the womb should be over now, but he hasn't returned home yet. Old ancestor, what do you say?" What should I do?"
"What? Brother Lan was tied up?" Xu Chengfeng, who had just entered the door, was very surprised when he heard this.
Ruan Yunting was still kneeling on the ground, looking back at Xu Chengfeng, her eyes were red with anxiety: "Cousin Six, what should I do, I'm afraid this matter is true!"
Xu Chengfeng saluted the old lady, hugged his shoulders and said: "It's not difficult, I will immediately take a team to encircle Xiaocang Mountain, and go up the mountain to wipe it out! I don't believe that thieves have three heads and six arms!"
Ruan Yunting shook her head again and again: "No, if you go there with a lot of fanfare, will Brother Lan still survive? I'm afraid the other party will kill Brother Lan first if they hear the movement!"
"But it's too unsafe for you to go. It's very likely that you won't be able to save Brother Lan, and you'll also be caught by yourself."
"Brother Feng is right." The old lady agreed, "Besides, I don't know if this matter is true or not, and I don't know which boring brat is joking with us."
"How come, the hairpin really belonged to Brother Lan. He is not such an ignorant person. Could it be that he gave the hairpin to others to scare us?" Ruan Yunting stood up.
The old lady said: "Maybe he lost the hairpin?"
"He has disheveled hair, didn't he notice that the hairpin was missing? Ancestor, I must go to Xiaocang Mountain."
The old lady's face was stretched, and she said displeasedly: "I will send someone to find out the truth. If Brother Ruolan is really kidnapped, just save him and come back. You just stay in the Jingsi Garden obediently, there is nowhere else to go." Go!"
"Brother Lan is in danger. The letter asked me to go. How can I ignore it and let someone else go. If they want to kill Brother Lan, what will happen to them!"
"No!" The old lady slapped the table and said seriously: "To put it bluntly, if you all have accidents and you will go underground, how will I explain to your mother? I will deal with this matter, you give me Go back to the garden and wait for news!"
Ruan Yunting was furious, and said in a sharp voice: "Is the ancestor worried about human life or that you can't explain it? I will save brother Lan now, and I will definitely not let him have trouble. If something really happens, I will advance and retreat with him That's right!"
After finishing speaking, Ruan Yunting flung her cloak and left quickly.
The old lady's chest heaved violently in anger, and she cursed, "Evil!"
Seeing this, Xu Chengfeng bowed and retreated.
There was no one else in the house, only Han Bin's family was left. Seeing that the old lady was angry, Han Bin's family persuaded: "Miss Ruan rushed to you because of Brother Lan. Don't forget your heart."
"She's in a hurry, don't I? That's my grandson! I'm afraid something will happen to her!"
Han Bin's family poured a cup of tea for the old lady, and said with a smile: "Ms. Ruan is usually the most sensible and well-behaved one. She is dizzy now. When she calms down later, she will definitely understand the old lady's intentions."
The old lady also understood Ruan Yunting's mood, she nodded and took a sip from the teacup.
Han Bin's family worried: "Old lady, what are you going to do?"
"What else can I do? The little girl rushed forward by herself, Brother Feng will definitely help her, let's not say anything, don't let those who tied Brother Lan see the clue, just pretend not to know, and secretly send a few Personally, follow Tinger and Brother Feng far away."
"Yes. The servant knows."
Han Bin's family responded with a smile, and went down to give orders.
At this time, Ruan Yunting was walking quickly on the road leading to the outer courtyard stable, Xu Chengfeng and Chanjuan hurriedly followed her.
"Chanjuan, you should immediately go to the Huitong Hall to inform Mr. Jun, and explain the matter. The location is Xiaocang Mountain, forty miles outside the North City Gate, can you write it down?"
"Yes, the slave has written it down."
"The gate of the city will be closed later, so you have to hurry up, and if it is too late, the house may also lock the key, so don't call the door stupidly, if you disturb the third wife, I am afraid they will take you You did the surgery, you informed Mr. Jun, and you might as well ask him to arrange a place for you." Ruan Yunting actually wanted to say that Chanjuan should live in Guiyun Pavilion, but with Xu Chengfeng by her side, she couldn't say it clearly.
How clever Chanjuan is, she immediately understood Ruan Yunting's meaning, nodded and said: "Don't worry, girl, this servant will know."
Ruan Yunting nodded, now she has arrived at the stables and led a bay red horse, Ruan Yunting said to Xu Chengfeng: "Sixth Cousin, I know that you have excellent lightness kungfu, few people in the court can match it, after I leave later, After a while, you change into your night clothes and go quietly to the north. Just follow me."
"I know. It's just that it's dark and it's difficult to drive in the snow. You must be extremely careful when riding a horse, and pay attention."
"it is good."
Ruan Yunting got on the horse, but when she got on the horse's back, she found that the bean was in the way.With a sigh, he simply lifted the slim-fit honey and long skirt to his waist. There were eight long skirts inside, so it would be no problem for him to step on the horse's back.
After getting ready, he took a deep look at Xu Chengfeng.At this time, only he can count on it.
Xu Chengfeng understood what Ruan Yunting meant, and nodded heavily.
Seeing Ruan Yunting, she galloped out of the west corner gate and headed straight for the north city gate.
In winter, it gets dark earlier than usual, and before Xu time, everything is already silent, and there are not many pedestrians on the street.The sound of horseshoes beating on the bluestone brick pavement covered with snow was extremely loud, echoing on the surrounding walls, making people panic.
Ruan Yunting didn't know if she was thinking too much, she was suspicious, she always felt that there was a strong sense of presence around her, and there were countless pairs of eyes staring at her, as if they wanted to make her linger, and opened huge eyes in the dark winter night mouth, to swallow her up.
Ruan Yunting was very scared, she wished she could take Ruan Yunlan's place to suffer now.If something happened to him, she would live in self-blame for the rest of her life.Because judging from the contents of the letter, the person who kidnapped Ruan Yunlan was obviously aiming at her, and she was the one who got Brother Lan into trouble!
The antique buildings slowly moved away from her, and the city gate gradually appeared in front of her eyes, slowly approaching.The horseshoe didn't stop, and she ran straight away. Afterwards, Liang Cheng shrank into a small black spot behind her. in front of you.
Xiaocang Mountain is not high, but it is steep and civilized.Most of the mountains are bare and steep mountain walls. There is no grass on one side of the mountain wall, and it is often tens of feet deeper.
Ruan Yunting left the horse at the bottom of the mountain and climbed up Xiaocang Mountain along the rugged mountain road. Perhaps because she was too anxious, she even forgot the feeling of being tired. She just prayed in her heart that brother Lan would be fine, and forced herself Calm down for later emergencies.
Arriving at a wide flat area halfway up the mountain, Ruan Yunting noticed lights flickering in the distance.Must be there?
Ruan Yunting crossed her waist and took a breath, then stepped forward, the distance gradually approached, and the scene gradually became clear.
On the snow-covered plain overgrown with wild grass, five young men dressed as servants held torches. The left side of the plain was a cliff, and the front and right sides were cliffs.At this moment, there was a person wearing a satin cloak. Under the firelight, the fine satin surface reflected orange light, which was dazzling.Looking at the man's face again, Ruan Yunting understood.
"Master Lu, long time no see."
Lu Wenshan stood on the edge of the cliff, holding a big knife, and was hitting the boulder under his feet. Looking at Ruan Yunting who was walking towards him, resentment gradually grew in his heart, and he became more and more fascinated by her appearance.Ever since he was injured, Nahuaer has been recuperating. His father forbade him to go out and cause trouble, and he was also very obedient. Didn't he do it because his father relaxed his vigilance today?
If it wasn't like this, how could he arrange it carefully?
"Miss Ruan." Lu Wenshan's voice was hoarse and sharp.As if grinding one's bones, on the windy mountain, it makes people shudder.
Ruan Yunting stood ten steps away from Lu Wenshan, and said, "Where's Brother Lan?"
Lu Wenshan smiled and waved to the people around him. A servant climbed up the boulder, shining a torch in his hand.
When Ruan Yunting saw it, her heart almost jumped out.
I saw a big rock tied with a thick hemp rope to a piece of wood with a thick bowl mouth. The other end of the wood protruded out of the cliff. There was a man hanging from it. Looking at it with the help of a torch, the clothes and eyebrows were not Ruan Yunlan but who?His hands were tied behind his back, and one end of the rope was fixed behind his back, so his body was bent, shaking with the gusts of wind, and the logs and boulders creaked.
"Brother Lan!" Ruan Yunting called out.
Ruan Yunlan didn't respond at all.
Lu Wenshan hit the boulder with the back of his knife, making a crisp sound, which was extremely ear-piercing at night.
"Stop barking, he can't hear you."
"Lu Wenshan, what do you want!" Ruan Yunting raised her brows upside down.
Lu Wenshan smiled, and waved his hands, two masked men in black rushed out from nowhere, and each of them grabbed Ruan Yunting.
Ruan Yunting's arms were cut behind her back, she frowned in pain, and struggled: "Lu Wenshan, just say what you want, don't hurt Brother Lan! Now, there's no need to beat around the bush!"
Lu Wenshan laughed loudly, his voice seemed to be pulled with sandpaper, "Aren't you very smart? How can you say that you are not allowed to bring someone here today, so you come here alone? You should fall into my hands today!"
As soon as the words fell, four black shadows leaped out of the bushes beside them, three of them took care of the two people beside Ruan Yunting with lightning speed, and one person directly performed lightness kung fu and flew to stand in the hanging On the crossbar of Ruan Yunlan, she squatted down and planned to pull Ruan Yunlan up.
Seeing this, Lu Wenshan waved the big knife in his hand furiously, the blade slashed on the boulder, making a "dang" sound, faintly visible sparks shot out, and at the same time, the log fixed on the boulder loosened.After looking carefully, one of the thick ropes binding the logs had been cut off.What used to be two ropes supporting a log is now a single rope.The man in black who was standing on the log and originally wanted to pull Ruan Yunlan up fell to the bottom of the valley when the log fell, and only heard him scream before dying.
Ruan Yunting felt nervous, seeing a fresh life die for them.I just feel very guilty.Xu Chengfeng's people were all trained by the second master Xu. In the future, she will not only provide compensation to the family, but also ask Xu Chengfeng for guilt.
However, since these men in black belong to Xu Chengfeng, why hasn't Xu Chengfeng shown up yet?
"Ruan Yunting, if you're smart, don't act rashly and tell your people to back off." Lu Wenshan sneered, "I'm not good at swordsmanship, so I'm bound to miss it. If I cut off the other rope, your brother will be killed." His body was smashed to pieces. The cliff below is thirty feet long, and if he falls down, he will only turn into meatloaf!"
"Lu Wenshan, what exactly do you want!"
Lu Wenshan was standing next to the boulder, and there were many guards around him. On the surface, it was all these, but it was unknown how many people were ambushing in secret.She must save Ruan Yunlan at all costs.
"It's very simple." Lu Wenshan took out a wine bag from his arms and said, "As long as you drink this wine."
"Okay!" Ruan Yunting responded immediately, and was about to step forward.No matter whether the wine bag contains aphrodisiacs or poisons, she is willing to go all out. If it is poisons, as long as Shui Qiuxin returns as long as possible, she will not die. If it is aphrodisiacs, the three guards behind her will not kill her anyway. It was thrown here to insult Lu Wenshan.
But brother Lan is in danger now, the log is missing a rope, and it has a tendency to fall down the cliff, and Ruan Yunlan's body is also sliding down a little bit.
"Miss, you can't drink!"
"Yeah, you can't go!"
As soon as Ruan Yunting took a step, the man in black grabbed her and shouted not to go.She is just a young girl, how can she be against the brute force of a man?
With a happy smile on the corner of Lu Wenshan's mouth, he looked at Ruan Yunting's struggle and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? Seeing that I still eat you?"
A man in black behind Ruan Yunting scolded: "You boy just has no good intentions, our lady is a golden branch and jade leaf, you are a toad and want to eat swan meat!"
Lu Wenshan was not angry when he heard the words, but laughed out loud, the sharp laughter echoed in the wilderness, it was extremely creepy.
"I'm a toad? Well, even if I'm a toad, I'll kill a few of them first!" Lu Wenshan straightened his face and said sternly, "Ruan Yunting, do you want to drink?"
After finishing speaking, he smiled again: "Okay, I'll give you time to think about it, so think about it quickly."
The attendant conjured a white candle out of nowhere, and Lu Wenshan lit it, and asked someone to hold it up, a little closer to the rope used to fix the log on the boulder.
No matter how thick the rope is, it can't withstand fire. Ruan Yunting saw that the rope seemed to be ignited, and said anxiously: "What are you doing? If you don't let your people stop, I'll drink that stuff!"
"Okay, Miss Ruan is really a transparent person, come on."
Lu Wenshan casually threw the wine bag in the open space in front of Ruan Yunting.
Ruan Yunting was about to bend down to pick it up.
At this moment, two black shadows rushed out from the grass on the right, one went straight to Ruan Yunlan who was hanging in the air, and the other rushed to Lu Wenshan.
With the help of the torch, Ruan Yunting clearly saw that the one who jumped onto the log and pulled Ruan Yunlan up was Jun Lanzhou in official uniform!
When Lu Wenshan saw someone rushing out, he knew something bad was going to happen, so he swung his knife and cut the rope with quick hands.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 385~386 Kidnapping
However, Ruan Yunting put herself in the situation, if this happened to her, how would she choose? Is it important for a person she cares about, or for those who are not?If she really fell in love, what did others say to her?All she cares about is that person's feelings.
People are different, so she can't impose her thoughts on Ruan Yunlan, but she will explain what should be said.
"Brother Lan, what do you value more, the feelings of the person you like, or what the people around you say about you?"
Ruan Yunlan was stunned immediately when she heard the words.These words echoed countless times in my heart.If he doesn't go, Princess Qingge will definitely be sad.Can he be willing?
In comparison, he seemed to be more afraid of Han Qingge's sadness.
"Sister, but others say that I am a dragon and a phoenix, which will inevitably bring down your reputation."
Hearing what he said, Ruan Yunting had already fully understood what he was thinking.Pulling Ruan Yunlan's hand, she turned around and ordered: "Chanjuan, go to Famous House, ask Ting Rong and Ting Lan to fetch Lord Lan's most expensive and best robe, and match the shoes and socks with you quickly." Bring it."
"Yes."
"Red bean, go prepare hot water for washing."
"Yes."
The two maidservants left in response.Ruan Yunting looked at Ruan Yunlan, and said firmly: "Brother Lan, you are the smartest person, why are you still struggling with this issue? My brother's lifelong happiness, talking to irrelevant people for no reason, What is more important in my heart?"
"Sister..." Ruan Yunlan was moved, and held Ruan Yunting's with her slender hand.
Not long after, Hongdou brought in the brass thin-mouth hot water pot, and mixed warm water in the brass basin on the washbasin shelf.
"Girl, the water is ready."
Ruan Yunting smiled, and took the rose fragrance she usually used to clean her face to help Ruan Yunlan wash her face, and then took the colorless and odorless ointment to even out his face.Ruan Junlan sat in front of Ruan Yunting's dowry box and let her sister play with her, and she let her loosen his long hair and tied it up for him.
Chanjuan also took Ting Rong with her at the moment, bringing Ruan Junlan's robe and boots.Ruan Yunting chose a crescent-white robe embroidered with bamboo patterns in silver thread for him, and matched it with a lotus-colored white fur collar cloak.What hangs on the body is a jasper bamboo jade pendant.The wood praise on the head was also replaced with a jade hairpin.
Ruan Yunlan usually dresses casually and never pays attention to these details.Now Ruan Yunting dressed him neatly by herself, looked at Ruan Yunlan who was already a head taller than her, and said in amazement: "My younger brother is really the most beautiful man!"
Ruan Yunlan was originally very similar to her in appearance, but as he grew older, his facial features were much deeper than Ruan Yunting's, with sharper edges and corners, long brows with willow leaves, deep and big eyes, a thin nose with thin lips, and the center of the eyebrows A little red mole is even more colorful.The one in front of him was a truly feminine and beautiful young man.

"Okay, brother Lan, go to the palace quickly, so that the county chief won't cry later." Ruan Yunting adjusted the strap of his neckline for him.
Ruan Yunlan blushed, but nodded firmly: "Sister, I'm leaving."
"Ok!"
Ruan Yunting stood on the porch, watching Ruan Yunlan's figure leave the Jingsi Garden quickly, and suddenly felt a feeling of "my family has a girl who has just grown up".
I hope everything goes well for him and Princess Qingge.
With nothing else to do in the afternoon, Ruan Yunting took a rest and found a book to read. Seeing that it was dinner time, the sky was getting dark.Chanjuan took the little girls to the small kitchen to pick up food boxes.
Suddenly, Zhao Linmu's family in the yard yelled and cursed: "Oh! Who is it that kills thousands of knives and throws things around!"

Ruan Yunting took the envelope to the lamp, opened it and looked, her expression changed instantly.What was placed in the envelope was a jasper hairpin that had been broken into three pieces!
This is clearly for Ruan Yunlan's hairpin at noon!
Ruan Yunting's heart beat violently, and her hands trembled unconsciously. The movement of unfolding the letter paper was very simple, but it took her a long time to do it.The words on the letter paper are concise and to the point.
"Ruan Yunting, if you want Ruan Yunlan's life, go to Xiaocang Mountain, forty miles outside the North City Gate, alone. After Haishi, he will die!"
Ruan Yunting's eyes went dark, and she felt that the floor was swaying, and she almost fell, but fortunately, Zhao Linmu's family quickly helped her.
"Girl, what's wrong with you! Girl!"
There was a momentary blankness in Ruan Yunting's mind, and her ears were buzzing. What she heard was the sentence "Sister, I'm leaving" that Ruan Yunlan said before going out in the afternoon, and what she saw was the blooming smile on his handsome face. smile.
Is this a dream, or reality?
Shaking his head vigorously, when he opened his eyes, the letter paper floating on the ground still existed, and under the dim light, the worry on Zhao Linmu's face was real.
"Girl, do you want your servant to invite the doctor?"
Ruan Yunting raised her hand to signal that she didn't need it, took a few deep breaths, and forced herself to calm down. If she lost her footing at this time, who else could save Brother Lan?
"moon."
"Chanjuan went to pick up the food box."
Grabbing a cloak casually, picking up the letter on the ground and the jade hairpin that was broken into three pieces, Ruan Yunting didn't care whether the snow outside would get her shoes and socks wet, so she walked down the steps quickly, and said as she walked: When she comes back, let her wait for me outside the Pine Age Hall."
"Yes."
Zhao Linmu's family should be, and followed a few steps worriedly.However, Ruan Yunting didn't give orders, and she couldn't say any more, she just waited for Chanjuan's return with peace of mind.
Ruan Yunting rushed into the Pine Age Hall, and before the little girl could tell her the story, she raised the curtain and entered the room by herself.
"Ancestor!"
At the moment, the old lady is being served by Han Bin's family in the Snapper.Hearing the voice from outside, he asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"
"Old ancestor." Ruan Yunting had rushed to her at this moment, plopped on her knees, "Brother Lan is tied up!"
"What?" The old lady was stunned.
Ruan Yunting presented the letter and Yuzan, explained the situation just now, and said: "Yuzan belongs to brother Lan, and the banquet in the womb should be over now, but he hasn't returned home yet. Old ancestor, what do you say?" What should I do?"
"What? Brother Lan was tied up?" Xu Chengfeng, who had just entered the door, was very surprised when he heard this.
Ruan Yunting was still kneeling on the ground, looking back at Xu Chengfeng, her eyes were red with anxiety: "Cousin Six, what should I do, I'm afraid this matter is true!"
Xu Chengfeng saluted the old lady, hugged his shoulders and said: "It's not difficult, I will immediately take a team to encircle Xiaocang Mountain, and go up the mountain to wipe it out! I don't believe that thieves have three heads and six arms!"

"He has disheveled hair, didn't he notice that the hairpin was missing? Ancestor, I must go to Xiaocang Mountain."
The old lady's face was stretched, and she said displeasedly: "I will send someone to find out the truth. If Brother Ruolan is really kidnapped, just save him and come back. You just stay in the Jingsi Garden obediently, there is nowhere else to go." Go!"
"Brother Lan is in danger. The letter asked me to go. How can I ignore it and let someone else go. If they want to kill Brother Lan, what will happen to them!"
"No!" The old lady slapped the table and said seriously: "To put it bluntly, if you all have accidents and you will go underground, how will I explain to your mother? I will deal with this matter, you give me Go back to the garden and wait for news!"
Ruan Yunting was furious, and said in a sharp voice: "Is the ancestor worried about human life or that you can't explain it? I will save brother Lan now, and I will definitely not let him have trouble. If something really happens, I will advance and retreat with him That's right!"
After finishing speaking, Ruan Yunting flung her cloak and left quickly.
The old lady's chest heaved violently in anger, and she cursed, "Evil!"
Seeing this, Xu Chengfeng bowed and retreated.
There was no one else in the house, only Han Bin's family was left. Seeing that the old lady was angry, Han Bin's family persuaded: "Miss Ruan rushed to you because of Brother Lan. Don't forget your heart."
"She's in a hurry, don't I? That's my grandson! I'm afraid something will happen to her!"
Han Bin's family poured a cup of tea for the old lady, and said with a smile: "Ms. Ruan is usually the most sensible and well-behaved one. She is dizzy now. When she calms down later, she will definitely understand the old lady's intentions."
The old lady also understood Ruan Yunting's mood, she nodded and took a sip from the teacup.
Han Bin's family worried: "Old lady, what are you going to do?"
"What else can I do? The little girl rushed forward by herself, Brother Feng will definitely help her, let's not say anything, don't let those who tied Brother Lan see the clue, just pretend not to know, and secretly send a few Personally, follow Tinger and Brother Feng far away."
"Yes. The servant knows."
Han Bin's family responded with a smile, and went down to give orders.
At this time, Ruan Yunting was walking quickly on the road leading to the outer courtyard stable, Xu Chengfeng and Chanjuan hurriedly followed her.
"Chanjuan, you should immediately go to the Huitong Hall to inform Mr. Jun, and explain the matter. The location is Xiaocang Mountain, forty miles outside the North City Gate, can you write it down?"
"Yes, the slave has written it down."
"The gate of the city will be closed later, so you have to hurry up, and if it is too late, the house may also lock the key, so don't call the door stupidly, if you disturb the third wife, I am afraid they will take you You did the surgery, you informed Mr. Jun, and you might as well ask him to arrange a place for you." Ruan Yunting actually wanted to say that Chanjuan should live in Guiyun Pavilion, but with Xu Chengfeng by her side, she couldn't say it clearly.
How clever Chanjuan is, she immediately understood Ruan Yunting's meaning, nodded and said: "Don't worry, girl, this servant will know."
Ruan Yunting nodded, now she has arrived at the stables and led a bay red horse, Ruan Yunting said to Xu Chengfeng: "Sixth Cousin, I know that you have excellent lightness kungfu, few people in the court can match it, after I leave later, After a while, you change into your night clothes and go quietly to the north. Just follow me."
"I know. It's just that it's dark and it's difficult to drive in the snow. You must be extremely careful when riding a horse, and pay attention."
"it is good."
Ruan Yunting got on the horse, but when she got on the horse's back, she found that the bean was in the way.With a sigh, he simply lifted the slim-fit honey and long skirt to his waist. There were eight long skirts inside, so it would be no problem for him to step on the horse's back.
After getting ready, he took a deep look at Xu Chengfeng.At this time, only he can count on it.
Xu Chengfeng understood what Ruan Yunting meant, and nodded heavily.
Seeing Ruan Yunting, she galloped out of the west corner gate and headed straight for the north city gate.
In winter, it gets dark earlier than usual, and before Xu time, everything is already silent, and there are not many pedestrians on the street.The sound of horseshoes beating on the bluestone brick pavement covered with snow was extremely loud, echoing on the surrounding walls, making people panic.
Ruan Yunting didn't know if she was thinking too much, she was suspicious, she always felt that there was a strong sense of presence around her, and there were countless pairs of eyes staring at her, as if they wanted to make her linger, and opened huge eyes in the dark winter night mouth, to swallow her up.
Ruan Yunting was very scared, she wished she could take Ruan Yunlan's place to suffer now.If something happened to him, she would live in self-blame for the rest of her life.Because judging from the contents of the letter, the person who kidnapped Ruan Yunlan was obviously aiming at her, and she was the one who got Brother Lan into trouble!
The antique buildings slowly moved away from her, and the city gate gradually appeared in front of her eyes, slowly approaching.The horseshoe didn't stop, and she ran straight away. Afterwards, Liang Cheng shrank into a small black spot behind her. in front of you.
Xiaocang Mountain is not high, but it is steep and civilized.Most of the mountains are bare and steep mountain walls. There is no grass on one side of the mountain wall, and it is often tens of feet deeper.
Ruan Yunting left the horse at the bottom of the mountain and climbed up Xiaocang Mountain along the rugged mountain road. Perhaps because she was too anxious, she even forgot the feeling of being tired. She just prayed in her heart that brother Lan would be fine, and forced herself Calm down for later emergencies.
Arriving at a wide flat area halfway up the mountain, Ruan Yunting noticed lights flickering in the distance.Must be there?
Ruan Yunting crossed her waist and took a breath, then stepped forward, the distance gradually approached, and the scene gradually became clear.
On the snow-covered plain overgrown with wild grass, five young men dressed as servants held torches. The left side of the plain was a cliff, and the front and right sides were cliffs.At this moment, there was a person wearing a satin cloak. Under the firelight, the fine satin surface reflected orange light, which was dazzling.Looking at the man's face again, Ruan Yunting understood.
"Master Lu, long time no see."
Lu Wenshan stood on the edge of the cliff, holding a big knife, and was hitting the boulder under his feet. Looking at Ruan Yunting who was walking towards him, resentment gradually grew in his heart, and he became more and more fascinated by her appearance.Ever since he was injured, Nahuaer has been recuperating. His father forbade him to go out and cause trouble, and he was also very obedient. Didn't he do it because his father relaxed his vigilance today?
If it wasn't like this, how could he arrange it carefully?
"Miss Ruan." Lu Wenshan's voice was hoarse and sharp.As if grinding one's bones, on the windy mountain, it makes people shudder.
Ruan Yunting stood ten steps away from Lu Wenshan, and said, "Where's Brother Lan?"
Lu Wenshan smiled and waved to the people around him. A servant climbed up the boulder, shining a torch in his hand.
When Ruan Yunting saw it, her heart almost jumped out.
I saw a big rock tied with a thick hemp rope to a piece of wood with a thick bowl mouth. The other end of the wood protruded out of the cliff. There was a man hanging from it. Looking at it with the help of a torch, the clothes and eyebrows were not Ruan Yunlan but who?His hands were tied behind his back, and one end of the rope was fixed behind his back, so his body was bent, shaking with the gusts of wind, and the logs and boulders creaked.
"Brother Lan!" Ruan Yunting called out.
Ruan Yunlan didn't respond at all.
Lu Wenshan hit the boulder with the back of his knife, making a crisp sound, which was extremely ear-piercing at night.
"Stop barking, he can't hear you."
"Lu Wenshan, what do you want!" Ruan Yunting raised her brows upside down.
Lu Wenshan smiled, and waved his hands, two masked men in black rushed out from nowhere, and each of them grabbed Ruan Yunting.
Ruan Yunting's arms were cut behind her back, she frowned in pain, and struggled: "Lu Wenshan, just say what you want, don't hurt Brother Lan! Now, there's no need to beat around the bush!"
Lu Wenshan laughed loudly, his voice seemed to be pulled with sandpaper, "Aren't you very smart? How can you say that you are not allowed to bring someone here today, so you come here alone? You should fall into my hands today!"
As soon as the words fell, four black shadows leaped out of the bushes beside them, three of them took care of the two people beside Ruan Yunting with lightning speed, and one person directly performed lightness kung fu and flew to stand in the hanging On the crossbar of Ruan Yunlan, she squatted down and planned to pull Ruan Yunlan up.
Seeing this, Lu Wenshan waved the big knife in his hand furiously, the blade slashed on the boulder, making a "dang" sound, faintly visible sparks shot out, and at the same time, the log fixed on the boulder loosened.After looking carefully, one of the thick ropes binding the logs had been cut off.What used to be two ropes supporting a log is now a single rope.The man in black who was standing on the log and originally wanted to pull Ruan Yunlan up fell to the bottom of the valley when the log fell, and only heard him scream before dying.
Ruan Yunting felt nervous, seeing a fresh life die for them.I just feel very guilty.Xu Chengfeng's people were all trained by the second master Xu. In the future, she will not only provide compensation to the family, but also ask Xu Chengfeng for guilt.
However, since these men in black belong to Xu Chengfeng, why hasn't Xu Chengfeng shown up yet?
"Ruan Yunting, if you're smart, don't act rashly and tell your people to back off." Lu Wenshan sneered, "I'm not good at swordsmanship, so I'm bound to miss it. If I cut off the other rope, your brother will be killed." His body was smashed to pieces. The cliff below is thirty feet long, and if he falls down, he will only turn into meatloaf!"
"Lu Wenshan, what exactly do you want!"
Lu Wenshan was standing next to the boulder, and there were many guards around him. On the surface, it was all these, but it was unknown how many people were ambushing in secret.She must save Ruan Yunlan at all costs.
"It's very simple." Lu Wenshan took out a wine bag from his arms and said, "As long as you drink this wine."
"Okay!" Ruan Yunting responded immediately, and was about to step forward.No matter whether the wine bag contains aphrodisiacs or poisons, she is willing to go all out. If it is poisons, as long as Shui Qiuxin returns as long as possible, she will not die. If it is aphrodisiacs, the three guards behind her will not kill her anyway. It was thrown here to insult Lu Wenshan.
But brother Lan is in danger now, the log is missing a rope, and it has a tendency to fall down the cliff, and Ruan Yunlan's body is also sliding down a little bit.
"Miss, you can't drink!"
"Yeah, you can't go!"
As soon as Ruan Yunting took a step, the man in black grabbed her and shouted not to go.She is just a young girl, how can she be against the brute force of a man?
With a happy smile on the corner of Lu Wenshan's mouth, he looked at Ruan Yunting's struggle and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? Seeing that I still eat you?"
A man in black behind Ruan Yunting scolded: "You boy just has no good intentions, our lady is a golden branch and jade leaf, you are a toad and want to eat swan meat!"
Lu Wenshan was not angry when he heard the words, but laughed out loud, the sharp laughter echoed in the wilderness, it was extremely creepy.
"I'm a toad? Well, even if I'm a toad, I'll kill a few of them first!" Lu Wenshan straightened his face and said sternly, "Ruan Yunting, do you want to drink?"
After finishing speaking, he smiled again: "Okay, I'll give you time to think about it, so think about it quickly."
The attendant conjured a white candle out of nowhere, and Lu Wenshan lit it, and asked someone to hold it up, a little closer to the rope used to fix the log on the boulder.
No matter how thick the rope is, it can't withstand fire. Ruan Yunting saw that the rope seemed to be ignited, and said anxiously: "What are you doing? If you don't let your people stop, I'll drink that stuff!"
"Okay, Miss Ruan is really a transparent person, come on."
Lu Wenshan casually threw the wine bag in the open space in front of Ruan Yunting.
Ruan Yunting was about to bend down to pick it up.
At this moment, two black shadows rushed out from the grass on the right, one went straight to Ruan Yunlan who was hanging in the air, and the other rushed to Lu Wenshan.
With the help of the torch, Ruan Yunting clearly saw that the one who jumped onto the log and pulled Ruan Yunlan up was Jun Lanzhou in official uniform!
When Lu Wenshan saw someone rushing out, he knew something bad was going to happen, so he swung his knife and cut the rope with quick hands.
