Chapter 549: Goodbye Broken Night
Ruan Di was pondering from the house for a while how to ask the Dongwu County Order, and what excuse he was going to find to ask him about the flood.
What she planned was not to reveal her identity as the assassin of Eastern Wu first, and to investigate secretly. After all, while this identity can bring convenience to her, it also greatly increases the risk along the way.
There was a "click" sound in the snow, and Ruan Di was flying out of the sky at this time, and any slight sound could wake her up.
Broken Night secretly regretted it, looked around and saw a few owls parked in a tree not far away, so he took out a few copper coins into his arms and threw them over.
The owls did not expect such a good person to come to trouble in the middle of the night, and in panic they all flew up and shook all the snow from the branches to the ground.
There was the cry of an owl outside the window, and at the same time the dull cross talk of snow falling on the ground, Ruan Di and Mingyu were a little flustered, and Mingyu jumped out of the window with a sword.
"Stupid, take me with you, I'm left alone in the room, won't it give people a chance!" Ruan Di saw Mingyu leave, and her heart was even more panicked.
In the flash of light, she had already gone through all the details from meeting the emperor in person to coming to Soochow by boat, but she did not find any suspicious person.
Ruan Di didn't have time to wonder if he had already put on his heels and went out, the surroundings were empty, where was the shadow of Mingyu......
She couldn't help but worry, not to mention that the enemy was attacking the west, if the enemy was going towards Mingyu...... Ruan Di shuddered, she didn't dare to think about it anymore.
A gust of wind blew over, Ruan Di came to his senses, and hurriedly pushed the door into the house-
"Ah...... Broken Night? β
Ruan Di was startled, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a black-robed man sitting next to the brazier, leisurely warming his hands.
"It's me." Shattered Night nodded and replied sullenly.
Ruan Di walked over and sat down across from him.
She was even more confused now, and that day she saw Broken Night being pushed into the guillotine, and the guillotine was sliced into Broken Night's neck, and blood flew high......
That scene, even if I think about it now, Ruan Di feels vivid.
But now Broken Night is sitting in front of her, and she has changed her big red robe to a big black robeβ
If he was still dressed in red, I would have recognized him at a glance. Ruan Di had this idea in her heart very strangely.
"It wasn't me on the guillotine that day, it was Su Niang." Broken Night seemed to see what Ruan Di was thinking, so he spoke leisurely.
"You haven't seen Su Niang. She was a woman I met by chance in Miaojiang in my early years, I guess I was fifteen years old......"
Ruan Di looked at the broken night, and she was suddenly a little surprised. Even though she gets along with Broken Night very rarely, she can always feel that Broken Night is a very selfish person, and he has never told him about the people around him, and Su Niang is the first.
Ruan Di suddenly felt that there was something different about this broken night in front of him, to be precise, it should have a little breath of life.
"......" Broken Night had been staring at the brazier just now, and suddenly felt a little weird, he raised his head and saw Ruan Di staring at him with interest, and there was still some surprise in his eyes.
"What do you think I'm doing? Go on. Ruan Di knew that the person who came was a broken night, so he let down his guard. According to Broken Night's temperament, even if Mingyu is no longer the person next to him, he will not do anything to Mingyu, as for why he is so sure, she can't say.
"What are you going to do? The night was already so deep. Broken Night didn't go any further, but asked her instead.
"Go and ask Dongwu ......" Ruan Di suddenly reacted, she is now a member of the imperial court, if she tells Sha Ye that she is going to investigate the flood, it is difficult to guarantee that Sha Ye will not accidentally stab her.
"Huh?" Broken Night stared into her eyes.
"You know all about it and ask me!" Ruan Di knew that he had already leaked his mouth, and he couldn't hide it from Broken Night, but Broken Night deliberately pretended to be stupid, so he was a little annoyed.
Ruan Di, Ruan Di, how can you be so heartless! You have told you all the big things, and I regret you to death!
Ruan Di was annoyed and scolded himself hundreds of times in his heart.
"Ruan Di, don't go on this trip, the county magistrate of Dongwu doesn't know anything."
Broken Night looked at Ruan Di's angry and disguised appearance, and felt a little funny.
"Why?" Ruan Di ignored the ridicule in the broken night's words.
"There are so many whys, you don't have to go anyway. I'll tell you, you don't have to work the prefectural order. After Broken Night finished speaking, it seemed that he didn't want to say much about the flood, and got up to leave.
"Ruan Di, how are you! You okay! β
The door was kicked open with a "clang", and Mingyu rushed in with a sword.
"Me? I'm fine...... You...... Mingyu? β
Ruan Di looked at Mingyu's little face, which changed from nervous and worried to shock, and finally to shame, and tears flowed down like broken threads.
"Master!" When she first saw the black-robed man, she didn't recognize it as Broken Night, and regarded him as an enemy who held Ruan Di hostage. When she saw that the person who came was the broken night, all the previous things came to her heart, and she couldn't help choking up.
"Take good care of your wife."
Suddenly, an unknown wind blew through the window, and the snowflakes drifted into the room with a cold air, melting over the warm brazier.
Broken Night is long gone.
Mingyu fell to her knees, looking at the wide open window, and the snowflakes beckoned to her face and didn't know what to hide, not knowing what she was thinking.
If this continues, Mingyu will become a snowman. Ruan Di quickly closed the window and dragged Mingyu to the brazier.
"Mingyu, I didn't blame you for saying this, I can hear it, you must know it."
"Hmm." Mingyu just nodded, but still looked at the window in distraction.
Ruan Di looked at the stunned Mingyu, and suddenly felt a little distressed about the Peony Sect.
Maybe many of them have their own unacceptable pasts.
They had grown up in the shadows since childhood, and one day he was told that all these hardships were caused by the imperial court. Just kill that faint king.
So they were instilled with the idea of the Peony Sect and let them kill people like hemp.
But one day, when they receive the light, they find that what they have believed for many years is not right, and how do they deal with themselves?
Ruan Di gently stroked Mingyu's back and did not mention the matter of going to see the county order again.
The two sat until the second half of the night, Ruan Di came up with two jokes from time to time to make Mingyu laugh, and most of the time he looked at Mingyu and couldn't do anything.
In the end, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he forcibly dragged Mingyu to the bed, covered her with a quilt, and lay down next to him to finish it.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, Ruan Di opened his eyes in a daze, and when he raised his hand, he found that he was covered with a quilt, but Mingyu was missing from his side. She was startled and sat up straight, only to see Mingyu sitting by the brazier with her packed luggage on the table.
