Chapter 327 Corpse spots!
"Let me go!" The wolf cub struggled in Pei Yan's hands, but he was so young after all, and was like a little chicken in Pei Yan's hands. No matter how he resisted, he couldn't break free. Instead, he broke his wounds, and the blood that seeped out dyed the gauze wrapped around him red.
Seeing that Pei Yan was unwilling to let go, Lord Wu wanted to scold him.
Even if there are grudges, and you want to make a fuss and fight, you have to choose the occasion. In front of everyone in Dongyue, you bite your own people and expose your own secrets. It's really like his wife ran away and his brain ran away with her. Yue Heyun deserves it and refuses to be with this lunatic anymore.
"I came in from West Street and climbed over Shimo Alley. You guys made a mistake in your guard and you want to put the blame on me."
Shimo Lane, West Street?
Pei Yan was stunned, as if he remembered something.
"ah!"
Before he could give any orders, the wolf cub took advantage of his daze and turned around to bite his hand hard. In pain, he shook the wolf cub off.
"A loophole in the security is a big deal. Send someone to check it out quickly." Zhang Ming shouted from behind.
He was recruited by Lord Wu and brought here specially today. Others who did not know the inside story thought he was Lord Wu's confidant. As soon as he opened his mouth, they hesitated, and someone immediately obeyed his order and did it. Pei Yan covered his hands and wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
The end of Shimo Lane is a dead end, separated from Jinling Street by a wall. This is to prevent people from sneaking in from the other side of the lane. After all, Jinling is a prosperous city, and not just anyone is allowed in. There are guards at several entrances.
They came and went very quickly, so the answer was naturally that the situation was true, and they also brought two servants with them.
The two servants were terrified. Seeing the wolf cub, they rushed forward as if they had finally found a savior, crying out in sobbing voices, "My Lord, why are you here? I'm so scared, I can't find you anywhere."
"My Lord, how could you suddenly escape from the carriage? You are truly..." Another servant, who seemed to be in charge, was mid-sentence when, as if remembering the group of important people around him, he turned around and trembled, bowing, "I'm sorry, everyone. My Lord insisted on looking for Concubine Su today. On the way, he heard that Jinling Street was closed, so he suddenly jumped out of the carriage and took off. We didn't have time to catch up with him before he disappeared. I wonder... did my Lord get into trouble?"
disaster?
It’s true that there is no such thing, but it’s not really true either.
It depends on how you say it.
"Hey, little boys are naughty. They have escaped death before, so adults tend to be clingy, let alone children. When they knew Concubine Su was here, they came here without caring about anything. The wound has broken open and is bleeding. Poor boy." Zhang Ming spoke with emotion, and the wolf cub's hands were covered with blood-soaked gauze, which made him look really pitiful.
To blame such a poor child is even more pitiful and inhumane.
Lord Wu was even smarter and immediately responded, "It wasn't intentional, it was all just an accident. Marquis Longfeng's injuries haven't healed yet, and he's a great hero who reported treason. The Emperor personally conferred the title, so we can't be careless. Hurry, send him to the carriage, and we must not make any more mistakes."
The two servants were also quick and smart, and they immediately carried the wolf cub out.
The wolf cub seemed to understand that he couldn't make trouble anymore. He looked at Su Rui with grievance and shouted, "Then you must come to see me in a few days."
Su Rui didn't answer, and the wolf cub was stuffed into the carriage and quickly taken away.
Pei Yan couldn't catch up even if he wanted to, and there was no reason to chase him. Besides, he was the one leading the guard today, and dereliction of duty would be a serious matter. He could only grit his teeth and watch the wolf cub leave.
Rong Huan's gaze remained fixed on Su Rui. She took a step closer, their eyes meeting, and said, "I didn't expect Concubine Su to acknowledge this nephew."
"Blood ties are always hard to sever." Su Rui responded calmly, "I hope you won't blame me for disturbing the princess today."
Rong Huan stared at him for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's normal for children to be naughty. However, since Concubine Su is your aunt, you must apologize on behalf of your nephew. This perfumed powder is quite good. Please give me a few boxes as an apology."
"It is an honor for this powder that the princess likes it. Come, pack it all for the princess."
After packing up several boxes of perfume powder, Rong Huan continued to walk around Jinling Street until she finally reached the end of the street around noon.
The end of the street is connected to Chengming Lake. Nowadays, there are still many flower boats sailing on the lake, with laughter and joy. The scenery is picturesque, which gives a picture of peace and prosperity.
The carriage was already waiting. After Rong Huan boarded, she didn't rush to leave. Instead, she opened the window from the inside, looked at Su Rui with a smile that didn't reach her eyes, and said, "Thank you, Concubine Su, for your company today, and for the perfumed powder. This princess likes it very much."
"When I make something better, I'll send it to the princess."
Rong Huan smiled and lowered the curtain without saying anything. The carriage turned around, and the guard Pei Yan followed to escort them back to the post station. He turned his horse's head and stared at Su Rui fiercely.
"What's the matter? Deputy Commander Pei has any advice?" Su Rui asked straight to the point.
Pei Yan opened his mouth to say something, but when he met Su Rui's charming peach blossom eyes, he swallowed his words, snorted coldly, pulled the reins hard, and walked away.
He thought to himself that it was useless to waste words with this witch. It was she who instigated and bewitched Yue Heyun, which led to her current state.
The same thing happened to the eldest prince back then. If it weren't for Su Rui's deception, his reputation wouldn't have been ruined after his death. Neither he nor the Pei family would have been forced to choose the second prince.
As long as Su Rui disappears from this world and no one bewitches or helps Yue Heyun, she will have no choice but to return to him, only!
Watching the carriage go away, Su Rui didn't know what Pei Yan was thinking. She just saw Xiaoru driving her own carriage over, smiling and talking to Lord Wu for a few words, then got in the carriage and went back.
After leaving Jinling Street, the smile on Su Rui's face immediately disappeared, replaced by fear and disbelief.
Only when she was completely safe did she no longer need to hold down her hands. Her whole body began to tremble, and the chill ran up her back from the soles of her feet. Cold sweat soaked her inner clothes.
She just saw it!
When the wolf cub was caught by Pei Yan, Rong Huan raised her hand.
The speed of lifting and lowering was extremely fast, just a blink of an eye, but Su Rui saw Rong Huan's arm in the big sleeve from that instantaneous gap.
She was not wearing any inner garment, because her arms were exposed through the wide sleeves.
Covered by the large sleeves, it was dim and difficult to see clearly even at that moment, but Su Rui saw a dark bruise on her arm, which formed a completely different contrast with the skin next to it.
Even though it was extremely fast, even though it flashed by, even though it was not even that clear, Su Rui could confirm it with just one glance.
That spot is not a bruise, but... corpse spots!
