She smiled brightly, and her charming and charming features became gentle.
The scholar in white was stunned for a moment and stretched out his hand involuntarily.
Who would have known that the moment she gently held his hand, a sharp sting instantly shot down the hole in his wrist.
The scholar in white froze completely.
The next moment, he saw her fingertips pull out several thin silver needles from the large hole on his wrist.
She said coldly: "From now on, you will be unable to speak. When the people outside leave, I will let you go, but if you dare to show anything wrong, you will be dead."
For this kind of passerby, it is most useful to let him see a direct threat.
The scholar's slender eyes flashed with surprise and evil, and he looked at her in disbelief. He found that he really couldn't speak.
Ming Lanruo felt a little guilty when he looked at him for no reason. The other person's eyes seemed to be very sad. It was really——
baffling!
"Did you hear that?" she said impatiently.
The scholar in white looked at Ming Lanruo's appearance and seemed to be frightened. He pursed his thin lips and nodded sullenly.
Ming Lanruo then trimmed her hair and went to open the door.
"Bang!" She opened the door just a crack before someone kicked it open.
Ming Lanruo was well prepared and quickly turned sideways to avoid being hit.
She followed the example of the scholar in white and held her chest, looking frightened: "Masters, what's going on?"
A group of people who looked like guards in black barged in with murderous intent and swords in hand.
"Why is the door open so slowly? I don't want to live anymore. Did anyone with injuries break in just now?" The head guard with a beard waved his hand, and the others immediately dispersed to search the yard without being polite at all.
Ming Lanruo didn't stop him, just shook his head: "I'm waiting here to see the goods in the workshop. During this period, I didn't see anyone coming in."
The tall guard chief had stayed in the palace, and he saw that Ming Lanruo had an extraordinary bearing. Although her clothes looked plain, they were made of valuable brocade.
He narrowed his eyes and looked her up and down warily: "So you are not from the workshop. Which noble family are you from? What are you doing here?"
Ming Lanruo smiled slightly: "I am Princess Mou of Prince Mou's Mansion. I have been to Tangshan to accompany the Queen Mother these days. I just came down today to go shopping for a garden party. However, the master of this workshop seems to have drunk too much after lunch. Until now.
Didn't even wake up."
As soon as these words came out, the captain of the guard who was leading the search was startled. He looked in the yard and saw that there was indeed a middle-aged man lying on his stomach and smelling of alcohol.
He felt a little uncomfortable and clasped his fists in salute, and said respectfully: "It turns out she is Princess Mourning, who is serving as the first-class guard commander of the East Palace. She is too reckless to be humbled by her position."
Ming Lanruo waved her hands as though she didn't think so: "Those who don't know are not guilty. Even if you don't come, I will go back. The Queen Mother is still waiting for me."
The captain of the guard looked a little ugly. They clearly saw King Qin coming to this alley, and they should not have let the person who appeared here go.
But if Minglan is Princess Mourning, there is the Queen Mother behind her, and His Highness the Crown Prince is not around, and they dare not stop them, then the only thing they can do is...
The captain of the guard glanced at the scholar in white standing behind Ming Lanruo.
"Get the scholar in the back and take him away!"
The scholar in white raised his slender eyes: "..."
Ah, he looks easy to bully, right?
Ming Lanruo frowned slightly, she couldn't let them take the little scholar away.
Otherwise, the thin and frail scholar would not have to be tortured. He could just kick her and Shangguan Hongye out.
She stopped in front of the captain of the guard and said with a smile: "This is the one who came with me. He is my father-in-law who is serving me at Tangquan Palace."
The captain of the guard was stunned and looked at the scholar in white in confusion: "You are the father-in-law. You don't look like it. How can you prove it?"
This scholar looks thin and tall, but his bookish and elegant aura doesn't look like a eunuch.
The scholar in white looked at Ming Lanruo expressionlessly, haha, what a coincidence, he is really a "eunuch"
He suddenly lowered his eyes, closed his jaw, folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen, bowed slightly towards them, and nodded in salute.
That is the standard posture of a palace eunuch when serving his master.
Ming Lanruo was stunned when he saw this, this scholar...
The chief guard also came from the palace, so he naturally recognized this gesture as that of a palace eunuch.
He looked at the thin scholar and suddenly told the people around him: "Go and check."
Before Ming Lanruo had time to stop him, the other two guards strode towards the scholar in white.
They raised their hands to hold his shoulders, and reached out to lift his robe. This chapter has been completed!
