C369 Lies (1/2)
Kanggong watched as Hua Rong's figure disappeared into the distance. His heart trembled, and immediately discovered that something was amiss — — that kind of hidden fragrance. That was an extremely strange fragrance. Zhao Deji had been taking Wang Jixian's aphrodisiac for a long time, and his body had always carried a strong and unique scent. He had served Zhao Deji for many years, so he was completely clear on this point. But now, he actually did not smell this scent from Hua Rong's body. He immediately felt that something was wrong, and had practically determined that Zhao Deji did not succeed.
But, how could Hua Rong leave safely? Moreover, he also thought of the key point, that kind of ”hmm …” Ah … ”Howl …” Her voice didn't belong to Zhao Deji at all, and was different from usual. Usually, it was Zhao Deji who shouted loudly, and the other concubines had to force themselves to smile as they welcomed him.
Based on his understanding of Hua Rong for many years, how could he easily accept him? She must be fearless. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. He quickly walked towards her sleeping quarters. Once she went in, she did not care about the rules, and quickly made an excuse to pour some tea to take a look, only to see that Zhao Deji was sleeping soundly, his breath was stable, and there was nothing unusual about him. Thank goodness Zhao Deji was not killed, otherwise, they would have lost their lives.
Hua Rong left the palace. It was already evening. She got on the palanquin and ordered the palanquin man to increase his pace. On the way, she rushed back to Yueyuan.
Li Yian, who was wandering outside, immediately welcomed her when he saw her. He heaved a sigh of relief, ”Sister Shi Qi, you're finally back …” Li Yian grabbed her hand, but felt that her palm was ice cold, like a dead person. Without further ado, she ordered the servant to close the door.
Under the moonlight, a figure anxiously came over: ”Madame Yue …”
It was Tianwei. It turned out that when Li Yian saw that Hua Rong was taken away by the Kanggong, he knew things were not going well. She was familiar with Hua Rong and her wife these past few days, as they were both old friends of Lin An. In desperation, they immediately dispatched a personal guard to the Prince Consort's Mansion to report to the Princess Tianwei. Although Tianwei had always been wary of ”forming alliances”, Hua Rong was alone at home. After being summoned by the The elder brother of the nine to her palace, she realized that it was no small matter and immediately rushed over.
The three of them entered the room and closed the door.
Hua Rong accepted the cup of tea from Li Yian and her heartbeat calmed down a little. Then she said: ”He really wants to make a move on us … …”
The two of them naturally knew who he was. She briefly recounted the matter of her entering the palace today. Tianwei was so astonished that she couldn't speak. After a long while, she fearfully said, ”If it wasn't for you and your wife, 'he' would have perished on the sea. ”Even if he did not think about escaping from the sea, he should have thought about the desperate attempt to rescue the Madame Yue during the transformation of the Liu Army. I never thought that he would actually be so crazy …”
Li Yian was filled with righteousness and anger: To be so shameless, how can he still be a human lord?
Hua Rong stood up nervously. ”He will definitely kill Peng Quan, she will definitely …” She was so anxious that she couldn't do anything about it.
Tian Wei hastily replied, ”Madame Yue, you might as well leave immediately. Catch up to Yue Xiang Gong, go to the ends of the earth and fly far away …”
Li Yian shook his head: ”Absolutely not. If she were to escape immediately, wouldn't 'he' have an excuse to hunt her down? ”In this way, the family of three will never escape his grasp …” Along the way, Hua Rong naturally thought about this problem, which was why he didn't dare to escape. But he could get away once, twice, and thrice today?
The three women were like ants on a hot pan, unable to do anything. After a while, Tianwei suddenly said, ”That's right.” A few days ago, Zhang's wife said that she dreamt of the Auntie and that she wanted to pay her respects to the Dao on behalf of the Auntie, and recite the scriptures of Buddha. I can also report 'he' to you. I dreamed of the Auntie and said she missed us a lot … ”Madame Yue, you and I will go to the shrine to worship the Auntie and recite buddhist prayers. First, hide for a while, 'he' will definitely not dare to openly commit crimes in front of the spirit hall of the Auntie …”
Li Yian was overjoyed. Zhao Deji, this hypocrite, had always marked him with the title of ”filial piety”. She immediately said, ”Sister Shi Qi, this plan is very good. Let's not delay this any longer. Just follow the princess to the buddhist hall. With the spirit protecting the empress dowager, 'he' probably wouldn't dare to act rashly … ”
At this point, Hua Rong was unable to think of anything. If she wanted to escape secretly, Zhao Deji would have to know that she did not ”succeed” this time. Otherwise, wouldn't he be giving him a reasonable excuse to kill her own family?
Hua Rong did not hesitate and packed her things that night. Two maids accompanied him and her son as they walked towards the Princess's Mansion with big strides.
Furthermore, when Kanggong returned to the palace, he did not dare to sleep peacefully throughout the night. It was only on the second day that Zhao Deji woke up.
When Zhao Deji woke up, he was actually full of energy. His heart was moved, and he was extremely happy, as he waved his arms. Recalling everything that happened yesterday, he asked anxiously, ”Where's Rong Er?”
The Kanggong waited on him with his hands crossed, his face full of smiles, and said in a low voice, ”Congratulations Shangguan Family, congratulations on getting what you want …”
Zhao Deji's entire body floated around, but, when it came to the matter of 'ecstasy', it was extremely unclear, vague and indistinct. If there was one, it was indefinite, and he asked: ”Kang Qi, was Rong Er obedient yesterday?”
Kanggong scolded in his heart, ”Damn eunuch, you're the same as me, you don't want to think about your own ability”, but he knew very well that if he found out that he did not have what he wanted, not only Hua Rong would suffer, but he himself would also suffer as well. He immediately flattered and said with certainty: ”The voice that Hua Rong served you with yesterday … Little ones blush... even more so than the Liu's wife … ”
