The rebirth of the first daughter of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 48 Strange Whereabouts
Hmph, do you think I will still be fooled?Su Ruiran unceremoniously threw the cup over, but Nangong Che looked behind him intently and dodged it, and was hit on the forehead by the cup impartially.Nangong Che fell to the ground screaming in pain, Su Ruiran was startled, and hurried over to check his injuries.

There was a red and swollen patch on his forehead, and it looked like he had been hit badly.

Su Ruiran hurriedly asked Nanny Wang to invite the doctor, and couldn't help but blame: "Don't you know martial arts? Why don't you hide?"

Nangong Che complained again and again: "It is clear that you took advantage of my unpreparedness and sneaked up on me when I was distracted."

Su Ruiran was anxious and annoyed when she heard this: "Why don't you scare me with Lord Huai first, do you think I'm really afraid of him? I'm not afraid of him?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a chill rising from her back, and she couldn't help shivering, only to hear a voice from behind: "Really?"

She turned her head in shock, only to find that Nangong Ling was standing behind her, looking down at her coldly.

Su Ruiran turned her head to look at Nangong Che, Nangong Che spread his hands with a smile on his face, as if to tell her, I have reminded you just now, who told you not to believe it.

Indeed, no one is to blame.

Su Ruiran could only brace herself and turn her head back, showing a very far-fetched smile at Nangong Ling: "Huai... Lord Huai, why are you here?"

She heard her voice trembling, and she couldn't stop trembling all over.The queen is vicious and the concubine is strong, but even in the face of these two people, she has never had such a gesture.

Nangong Ling stared at her with cold eyes, and said in an unceremonious tone, "Stop talking nonsense, when will I return that thing?"

"What?" Su Ruiran didn't recover for a while.

Nangong Ling took a step up suddenly, causing her to back away in fright.

"Fifth brother." Nangong Che stopped, and Nangong Ling stopped, and said to her, "I will give you another day, if you don't return the things to me tomorrow, no matter whose daughter you are, don't blame me You're welcome."

After saying these words, Nangong Ling turned around and left the table, leaving her at a loss.

Nangong Che said to her with a worried face: "You'd better return the things to Fifth Brother, Fifth Brother has always said one thing."

Su Ruiran nodded and said nothing, and the two of them sat back at the banquet, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Su Ruiran drank her tea, thinking to herself, it's not a problem to return the key to Nangong Ling, but how can I get back my jade pendant?I thought about it, the emperor also brought a group of ministers to the table.Everyone stood up and kowtowed, shouting in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

The emperor sat down on the throne and said "flat body" before everyone got up and went back to their seats.

Su Chao sat next to Su Ruiran.

At this time, the eunuch next to the throne shouted loudly: "Let's dance and dance." Immediately, a dancer came with a flick of sleeves, and the sound of silk feet sounded, and the banquet officially began.

During the dinner, Su Ruiran suddenly saw Yanran get up and leave, acting suspiciously.She wanted to follow, but suddenly at this moment, Su Chao sat beside him holding a wine glass, so she could only give up first.

Su Chao's body was smeared with alcohol, knowing that her father had a lot of food, but she still couldn't help but persuade him to drink less.

Su Chao stared at her, this expression made her a little uncomfortable, so he simply asked, "Does Daddy have something to say to me?"

"Rui Ran, I want to ask you something, you have to tell me the truth."

Hearing what her father said, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Too many things happened in the past few days, and she didn't know what exactly her father wanted to ask.Among other things, regarding today's puppet matter, if Dad really found out and wanted to ask, I really couldn't think of a more satisfactory answer for a while.

But even though she thought so in her heart, she still nodded: "Daddy, it's okay to say, my daughter must tell the truth."

The smell of alcohol on Su Chao's face disappeared suddenly, and his eyes became clear all of a sudden, and he looked at her: "Do you have any affair with Duke Huai?"

Su Ruiran was taken aback. She had thought about many possibilities, but she never thought that what her father wanted to ask was this matter. She hurriedly shook her head and explained: "It's absolutely nothing, and I don't know if there is any misunderstanding. Duke Huai only met a few times, and the few times all happened for a reason, and Dad knew about it. No matter how ignorant the daughter is, she would definitely not dare to do anything that would embarrass Dad."

Su Chao nodded thoughtfully, but he couldn't tell whether he believed or not.

"So that's the case, I just asked casually, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Su Ruiran secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but heard her father say to herself: "But Rui Ran, you are not young anymore, it's time to choose one of the thousands of men in the world as your husband." But soon his voice Changed again: "But don't blame Dad for not warning you, anyone can do it, except Nangong Ling."

This time he was even more impolite, he didn't even have the honorific title of Duke Huai, and called him by his first name directly.

Su Ruiran only felt that Daddy's heart was up and down when he spoke, and he couldn't figure out what he meant at all, but he could only nod his head and say, "Don't worry, Daddy, my daughter will definitely not embarrass you, Daddy."

Su Chao smiled, patted her on the shoulder, turned and returned to his seat.

Why is Nangong Ling the only one who can't do it?

Although Su Chao left, she couldn't help thinking about this question.I have never heard of any enmity between my father and Nangong Ling. Last time, my father helped him to hide it, but why was he the only one who couldn't?
At this moment, Su Ruiran suddenly saw Yanran come back, she took a porcelain cup on her table with a slightly flustered expression, then turned and left the table.

Strange, what is she doing?
Su Ruiran couldn't help but follow. Madam Wang wanted to accompany her, but was ordered by Su Ruiran to stay at the banquet. After all, she was following her, so how could she bring so many people there.

Su Ruiran followed Yanran around a few times, and it was even more strange to see that she seemed to avoid the guards on purpose and chose the path to go forward.

What's the trick in this?

After following for a while, she found that she had arrived at Concubine Li Gui's yurt.

If I remembered correctly just now, Concubine Li Gui should still be at the banquet at this moment, so what is she doing here alone?

Although most of the palace people went to the banquet with Concubine Li Gui, there was not a single guard outside this concubine's yurt. Isn't it normal that someone should be left here to guard it?Could it be that someone deliberately transferred them, and for what reason?

Seeing Yanran looked around nervously, making sure that no one was following her, she opened the curtain and entered Li Guifei's yurt, and Su Ruiran couldn't help but follow in.

Once inside the yurt, it was pitch black, eerily quiet.

She looked around, not to mention Yan Ran, she didn't see half a figure.

How could this be?What about people?

She reacted immediately and realized something was wrong. She suddenly felt a pain in the back of her head, was knocked to the ground from behind, and passed out.

She didn't know how long it took before she finally woke up, feeling the pain in the back of her head.

This is where?what is going on?

She looked around and was surprised to find that there was a maid lying beside her, her eyes were wide open, her tongue was sticking out, her face was purple, and she had already passed away.There is obviously a circle of rope marks on the neck, which is obviously strangled to death.

She was taken aback, but what surprised her even more was that she found herself in Concubine Li Gui's yurt, and there was no one in the room at the moment.

There are voices outside the house, someone is coming.

She stood up only to find that her hands and feet had been bound.

She anxiously broke free a few times, but found that it was a knot, and tried to bite it with her teeth, but she couldn't bite it open.

The voices outside the door were getting closer.

She looked around and there was no place to hide, but suddenly found a few pieces of teacups in the corner of the room.

She immediately jumped over and cut the rope on her hand with the shards, but she had no time to cut off her feet.

When she looked up, she saw that the yurt was supported by thin beams, which seemed unable to support the weight of a person.

But she didn't care about that much anymore, turned over and jumped up, stepped on the beam, and pulled the rope hanging from the roof of the yurt with both hands, and barely stabilized her body, but she was precarious, and she didn't know how long she could hold it.

As soon as she jumped up, the door curtain was lifted from the outside, and a group of people rushed in.

From the top, it was just the top of her head, she couldn't see her face clearly, and she couldn't tell who was who, but it seemed that they were all palace people.

When everyone entered the room and saw the maid who had died tragically on the ground, they exclaimed and rushed out to report the news. Not long after, the emperor, empress and concubine Li Gui came in.

Accompanying them were a group of concubines and female relatives, among them were Yan Shi and Yan Ran.

As soon as Yanran entered the room, she was looking for something, and she was a little surprised that she didn't see Su Ruiran.

Concubine Li Gui's expression was even more so, she obviously used tricks to lure her, knocked her out and threw her here, the purpose was to frame her for the crime of killing a concubine, why did she suddenly disappear now?

Eunuch Zhang went forward to feel the maid's pulse on the ground, and reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, she is already dead, she was strangled to death."

Concubine Li Gui cried out in surprise, and threw herself into the emperor's arms, her face paled: "Your Majesty, who is it that commits such a crime in the concubine's room?"

The emperor put his arms around her, comforting her while asking Eunuch Zhang to thoroughly investigate the matter.

It turned out that the dead maid was in charge of guarding the epiphyllum. During the banquet tonight, Concubine Li suddenly mentioned that there were several pots of epiphyllum that had just been delivered in her room that were just in bloom. Live up to this rare sight.

But when everyone arrived, they didn't see Epiphyllum, but they saw such a dead palace lady.

Su Ruiran hung on the roof and was startled. It turned out that everything was a trap from the beginning.Yanran's deliberate departure was to lure herself over, the first time was because her father didn't keep up, so she left and came back again, and came again.

It is really frightening that the other party can understand his temper so clearly.

Yan Ran, she was able to fool herself this time.I still remember that before the grounding, she was just a pampered and willful girl. I didn't expect that after being imprisoned for such a time, her xinxing would grow to this point?
Concubine Li Gui nestled in the emperor's arms, looking pitiful, and begged: "Your Majesty, this kind of thing happened in the concubine's palace. The concubine is really scared, so I ask the emperor to send someone to search the place inside and out." .”

The emperor immediately ordered Zhang Gonggong to send people to search.

Is she really not reconciled if she doesn't see herself?Just as Su Ruiran was thinking about it, her hand slipped suddenly, and the rope in her hand almost fell out. Fortunately, she grabbed it hard so that it didn't fall off, but the vibration caused dust to fall from the beams.It landed on a woman in plain clothes, she covered her nose and raised her head slightly, but luckily she didn't lift too much to see the roof.

Su Ruiran was so shocked that her heart was beating like a "thump", as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

It turned out that because she was too nervous, her palms were already sweating, so now her hands were starting to slip.But the people below didn't know when they would leave, so she could only grit her teeth and grab the rope desperately with both hands. Once she fell, she would be doomed.

It is precisely because of this strong obsession that she has been able to grit her teeth and hold on.
