304 It Turns Out It Was He Jixiang Who Did the Killing 1
The sun was rising, but the three people who were boating to pick lotuses in the lotus pond had not returned yet. The boat seemed to have sailed a long way away. Feng Hongluan suddenly felt an ominous feeling in his heart. He stood up and looked around. In the greenery, he had already seen
The black boat is missing.
"Liu Xiang, Yan'er, Liu Xiang, Yan'er!"
She left the pavilion and stood in an empty place shouting, but her voice was drowned in the fields of lotus leaves.
Thinking of how Liu Xiang died in her last life, she couldn't help but feel frightened. Just as she was about to find someone to check, she saw Xia Rongling suddenly rising into the sky, like a fairy on the waves, stepping on the lotus leaves and heading towards the depths of the lotus pond.
After a while, he came back and said with a smile: "These girls took some time off and fell asleep under the lotus leaves. I woke them up and came back."
Asleep, all three of them?
Feng Hongluan frowned and smiled lightly: "Thank you very much."
The boat gradually approached, and the boat was already full of flowers. The fragrance of the flowers was bursting. The three girls got off the boat respectively. Xia Rongling owed a smile and led Hu Die to say goodbye with a large bouquet of lotus flowers. Feng Hongluan's eyes inadvertently glanced at Hu Die's face.
, there seems to be something abnormal.
I always feel like something is wrong.
The girl Liuxiang has never been a playful person. She is meticulous and conscientious in her work. How could she fall asleep for no reason when she was asked to pick lotuses? It's morning now and she just woke up not long ago.
Even if Liu Xiang falls asleep, Yan'er will too?
Hu Die too?
She always felt that something was fishy. As soon as Xia Rongling left, she looked at Liuxiang Yaner: "What's going on? You've been here for a long time?"
"Miss, I'm sorry. Maybe I didn't sleep well after sunset last night. When I got deep into the lotus bushes, I suddenly fell asleep. Hu Die said she knew how to pick lotus flowers. If I'm sleepy, it doesn't matter if I take a nap."
"What about you, Yan'er? Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Miss, I'm not the slave. I have sunflower water on my body and I have some abdominal pain. Sister Hu Die told me to sit down and rest. I rested and then fell asleep."
It didn't sound suspicious, maybe she was overthinking it.
"Let's go! Go back and find the bottles to put these lotus flowers in."
"Yes!" The two of them agreed in unison. Suddenly Xia Rongling returned it in a hurry. When she saw Feng Hongluan, she smiled a little uneasily: "Feng Hongluan, can you give these lotus flowers to me? My woodshed is really big.
It tastes great. Put more lotus flowers in it and the air will become clearer. If you still want it, I can pick some myself in the evening and send them to you. Can you give these to me?"
"If you want it, just take it!" Xia Rongling doesn't look like the kind of person who would ask for things!
But maybe the smell of her woodshed is really bad. The pond is full of lotus flowers. If you like, you can ask Uncle Xiao to come and pick them. It doesn’t take much effort. And according to what Liu Xiang and Yan’er just said, these are also
Hu Die’s contribution.
She was quite generous, and there was an expression of relief on Xia Rongling's face that was hard to fathom.
There was a handful of lotus left, and Xia Rongling took it away personally. Feng Hongluan didn't care, but Liu Xiang was a little unhappy.
"The lotus flowers at night have withered after blooming all day long. How could she be so restless? She would take away all the good ones."
"Liuxiang, forget it, I think the princess must need these lotus flowers. Come on, help me back, I'm a little tired."
When we returned to the hospital, Hong Yan hadn't come back yet. It seemed that the military mission this time was not trivial.
Seeing that it was almost ten o'clock at noon, Feng Hongluan was quite worried. So far, she still didn't know what the emperor was going to do. What she was most afraid of was that, as she had guessed, the emperor would destroy the threat of the general in order to protect his position.
Use Hongyan to get rid of the general, and together, see Hongyan to get rid of him.
But Feng Hongluan still couldn't believe that the emperor was really so cruel.
If the emperor is really so cruel, before her death, Hong Chao had already been in Kangding for eight years and the Emperor had not taken any action. Why could the Emperor be so impatient when it had only been Hongkang for three years in this life?
She couldn't do anything but let nature take its course, telling herself that everything would be fine and nothing would go to the worst direction.
At noon, Xiao Yunye suddenly came in to announce, laughing and telling Feng Hongluan that Lan Xiang was desperate and came to seek refuge with Feng Hongluan.
Lanxiang is desperate.
"Is it possible that He Jixiang already knows that Lan Xiang is one of ours now?"
"My subordinates don't know, but looking at Lan Xiang's appearance, she is very frightened. I beg my subordinates to save her. He Jixiang and Yin Tiangao are going to kill her. I will put her in a safe place now. Miss, you want to
Don’t you want to see her?”
"Well, take me there this afternoon."
It is a secluded small courtyard where few people usually come. Feng Hongluan did not expect that Xiao Yunye would visit all the large and small courtyards in Prince Jin's Mansion not long after he came to Prince Jin's Mansion. She also did not expect that Xiao Yunye would know everything about it.
Lan Xiang settled in the small courtyard of Prince Jin's Mansion that was rarely visited by people.
Good thing, it saves Feng Hongluan from walking around and injuring the fetal air.
This courtyard has been abandoned for a long time, and the most vibrant thing is a bunch of flower and fruit trees that were planted in the early years.
However, although they are not exotic flowers and plants, they are still very bright and beautiful. The sixteen flower trees are not taken care of, but they are still tall and handsome. It is because there has been no construction for many years, they are lush and a bit messy.
The messy branches and leaves better concealed the dilapidated house deep among the branches and leaves.
When Feng Hongluan entered, Lan Xiang was lying on the bed. She seemed to be half sick, her face was pale and her expression was very weak.
Seeing Feng Hongluan, Lan Xiang seemed to have woken up from alcohol. She burst out of tears and rolled down from the bed. She crawled to Feng Hongluan and begged: "Miss, miss, please save this slave, miss."
"
"Get up and talk."
Feng Hongluan stretched out her hand to help her, looked at her haggard appearance, and asked, "Are you sick?"
"My slaves have been on the run for days and are very worried. They are all infected with the cold." As he spoke, he started coughing.
Feng Hongluan hurriedly covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, not because she disliked it, but because she was afraid of being infected and hurting her child.
Lan Xiang also hurriedly stepped away: "Miss, it's humid here and the air is blocked. I have something to report to you. I beg you to save your life. Can we go outside to talk?"
