Chapter 562: The new owner of Apricot Curtain Villa
"Are you feeling unwell? Then you should rest first. I just happened to have something to go out for, so I won't be eating at home today. Ruan Tao saw that Chef Liu didn't react, so he didn't want to ask more.
Chef Liu agreed to come down, and watched Ruan Tao go without mentioning it.
Na Prince's Palace.
It is said that since the matter of colluding with the Peony Sect during Prince Na's southern tour was leaked, he left Ruan Mingzhao and his accomplices and ran away by himself.
Although he was still being pursued by the imperial court secretly, he did not issue a wanted warrant.
To the outside world, it was only said that Prince Na colluded with the Peony Sect to assassinate the saint, and after being discovered, he committed suicide in fear of crime.
to preserve his reputation, after all, he is a member of the royal family, and his family ugliness must not be publicized.
As soon as Prince Na left, Li Yuanyu also committed suicide. Her husband, as a confidant of Prince Na, was naturally afraid of being implicated, and when the court remembered to arrest him, he had already fled.
The huge palace of Prince Na was empty.
Ruan Mingzhao took another daughter of Prince Na, Li Yuanhong, and the couple moved into Prince Na's mansion with confidence, originally wanted to change the name to Ruan Mansion, but collided with the address of his father Ruan Mingzhao, so he was helpless, and found a learned gentleman and named it Xinglian Villa, which sounded ingenious and elegant.
It's a pity that the new owner of the villa is not a person who loves to read, except for spending all day with his wife and getting tired of being together, he is listening to music and dancing with other gentlemen, eating, drinking and having fun.
Since Ruan Mingzhao broke off relations with Ruan Tao, he has behaved even more freely. Whenever I saw a young and beautiful woman on the street, I would forcibly snatch it back to the house. Li Yuanhong knew that his father, Prince Na, was not there, and he was a woman who couldn't help him, so he also turned a blind eye.
Colleagues in the DPRK and China did not know that Ruan Tao's father and son had severed contact, and they all envied Ruan Mingzhao for having such an enlightened father.
Ruan Mingzhao has been sued several times for robbing people's daughters, and the county magistrate did not dare to send him down when he saw that Ruan Mingzhao was his boss. He is also extremely discerning, and knows not to provoke people who cannot be provoked. So no one could do anything to him for a while.
As soon as Ruan Taogang's carriage stopped at the gate of the "Apricot Curtain Villa", he heard a drama flying from inside, accompanied by the laughter of all kinds of women.
Ruan Tao suddenly understood in his heart, the guilt on his original face gradually faded, and a wave of anger rushed to his heart.
"Get out of the way!"
Ruan Tao got out of the carriage and suddenly appeared at the gate, startling everyone.
Ruan Mingzhao was stunned when he saw that it was Ruan Tao, but he still didn't stop his father after all.
The opera paused, and the female singers retreated. In the huge courtyard, only the two Ruan were left.
"Ruan Mingzhao, I thought you would be restrained, but I didn't expect you to ignore the laws and regulations of your country and cause chickens and dogs everywhere. I came here today to reconcile with you and discuss with you to recommend the deputy envoy of the Shaanxi Sanpin Salt Division. Tomorrow morning, I will revise a letter to inform my colleagues in the DPRK and China that I have broken my grace! ”
What Ruan Tao said was what he thought. He happened to think of Liu Ruoming today, so he decided to do it and cherish it. Although this Ruan Mingzhao is not his "biological" son, in a sense, he occupies the body of "Ruan Tao", and he should be compensated.
decided to recommend Ruan Mingzhao for promotion, but he didn't expect that the news about Ruan Mingzhao's misdeeds was true. Ruan Mingzhao enjoyed himself, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.
"Daddy! Dad, I was wrong! ”
As soon as Ruan Mingzhao heard the "Recommend the Deputy Envoy of the Shaanxi Sanpin Salt Division", where did he care about how he hated Ruan Tao before, and he was busy chasing him out.
Ruan Tao had already made up his mind at this time, and he had already gotten into the carriage and left.
"Ruan Tao, this old immortal!" Ruan Mingzhao was furious, turned his head and rushed back to the courtyard angrily, "banged" a few times, and broke several vases.
When those subordinates saw Ruan Mingzhao like this, they had already secretly run away.
Ruan Mingzhao smashed something he saw in the courtyard, smashing the previous harmonious banquet to pieces.
A moment later, he sat down next to a rockery in the courtyard and sobbed quietly.
He hated Ruan Di even more in his heart. If it weren't for her, my father wouldn't have suddenly turned a blind eye to him. If she hadn't intervened in the middle, her mother, Jirui, would not have died.
"Mother, you are really wronged to die!" Ruan Mingzhao burst into tears, completely ignoring what he said.
Soochow.
Saying that, Broken Night came to Ruan Di's door and knocked on the door.
"Who?"
No one answered outside the door. Ruan Di suddenly remembered that when she was staying at the old woman's place that day, when Zhiying came to look for her, she also knocked on the door like this and didn't say a word.
Ruan Di comforted himself that it must be Qi Xiaoxian who also sent someone else to assist him.
After the events of the past few days and Mingyu's sacrifice, Ruan Di is now an ordinary frightened bird, and she will carefully check everything in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation.
"Tuk tuk", the person outside the door did not speak, and there were two more knocks on the door.
Ruan Di turned his head to glance at Zhiying, and found that Zhiying was staring intently at the door, holding the scabbard in his left hand and the hilt of the sword in his right hand, ready to kill the people who came in at any time.
Finding that Ruan Di was looking at her, Zhiying nodded at Ruan Di.
Ruan Di suddenly stopped being afraid, she stepped forward and quickly opened the door - it was a broken night!
At the same time, Zhiying quickly rushed forward with his sword, Ruan Di screamed out loudly, but the expected bloody scene did not happen, and Broken Night caught the long sword that Zhiying cut over with his hand!
Zhiying's sword was sharp, and wisps of scarlet liquid on Broken Night's hands kept oozing from between his fingers.
Ruan Di breathed a sigh of relief.
After some explanation, Zhiying gave way and followed Ruan Di into the house.
"Broken night, Mingyu is dead, I'm sorry." Ruan Di didn't wait for Sha Ye to speak, and said what he wanted to ask.
"......" was silent in the broken night.
"It's to protect me, and I was stabbed to death after being poisoned by the kid next to ** and losing to **." Ruan Di lowered his head and didn't dare to look at the broken night.
The person on the other side still didn't speak.
"Mingyu came to you to protect you." Broken Night was silent for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.
It's just that for some reason, his throat gurgles, and it seems that some grief is irrepressible.
"Have time to go and see her, she's in the wilderness west of the city. I put a handful of small flowers in front of her, which should be obvious at a glance. ”
Ruan Di said again.
Depressing, uncomfortable, and darker the more you depict it.
That's what Ruan Di was thinking at the moment. She suddenly felt the sadness surging in her heart, even more sad than the day Mingyu died, as well as guilt.
Broken Night sent a healthy and hearty Mingyu to her, but now she has no way to return Mingyu properly.
