Jiang Ru nodded repeatedly. Yuan Lang's face softened slightly. He looked at Jiang Ru a few times. He inserted the knife in his hand into the scabbard and placed the black knife across the man's waist. He looked inconspicuous.
But Jiang Ru knew how sharp it was.
When the danger was over, Jiang Ru rubbed her sore legs and stood up slowly, holding on to the stone next to her.
"Then can I leave?"
She didn't want to stay with these people, and her intuition told her that the man in front of her was dangerous.
Yuan Lang felt funny when he saw her cowardly look, and he was somewhat convinced that she was not having a secret meeting with someone.
Moreover, he must believe this reason.
Jiang Ru's reputation cannot be ruined. It is reasonable for this maid to come out to find medicine for her.
"Well, go back. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me directly. Lady Jiang's reputation is important. If you are smeared because of you, the general will never let you go. Do you hear me?"
Yuan Lang was tall and strong, standing in front of her like a wall. Jiang Ru subconsciously took a deep breath and changed her face to a docile expression.
"knew."
She now understood that these people were sent by Jiang Zhe to monitor her. Jiang Ru didn't believe that Jiang Zhe would send people to protect her, so the arrival of these people was to ensure that she could not escape.
A flash of hatred flashed through Jiang Ru's heart, she put on the hood of her clothes, her face was covered by the clothes, and she ran quickly through the crowd to the guest room.
The sandalwood on the woman's body was blown into the man's breath by the wind. Yuan Lang's black eyes darkened, and the hand on his waist moved slightly, unable to help but want to keep the scent.
"Brother Yuan, are you going to let that woman go?"
They were outside just now and didn't hear the conversation between the two of them. They caught up with such an exciting affair as having an affair, so why not watch the excitement.
"Go away, you dare to watch all the excitement, and I'm not afraid that your life will be gone one day!"
Yuan Lang kicked the younger brother in front of him. These blind people are really tired of living.
"Brother Yuan, who is that woman? Isn't she Mrs. Jiang?"
This time they were responsible for protecting Jiang Ru. No one had ever seen Jiang Ru, nor had they heard of the ridiculous things she did. But to be kicked out of the house by the general and reflect in this remote temple, she must be a rebel.
Thinking of the young lady who just secretly had a meeting with someone, everyone felt prejudiced.
"Shut up! You are talking about your master behind his back. If you want to die, don't get involved with me!"
Yuan Lang's face turned dark and he scolded his men in a low voice.
After everyone was scolded by him, they all reacted and felt frightened.
If what they just said reached the general's ears, it would be an unfounded smearing of Mrs. Jiang's reputation. This would be a fool's errand.
"That little lady is just the maid beside Lady Jiang. Lady Jiang is sick, so she comes to get medicine."
After Yuan Lang finished his training, he explained that he could not let his subordinates misunderstand.
"yes."
Everyone nodded heavily and dared not say anything.
"Did you catch that person?"
After Yuan Lang finished typing, he turned over the story. The man who had just escaped with the woman had not been found yet. He was cautious in nature. Even if he said that the little maid was the one who helped buy medicine, Yuan Lang still had to make sure.
Many people followed him out just now, but it was snowy and windy outside, and Tuoba Mingge was already familiar with the back mountain. He disappeared within a few seconds after he mounted his horse. Yuan Lang's men wanted to pursue him, which was simply a dream.
"No.……"
Everyone lowered their heads in despair, they did not expect that they would not be able to catch up.
"Forget it, let's find a place to stay first and go see Mrs. Jiang tomorrow."
Yuan Lang glanced at the dark cave and felt that there was something fishy about this. All of his soldiers were elites, and it was impossible that they could not catch up with even an ordinary person.
So, it was the little maid who was lying.
Yuan Lang frowned, and a coldness flashed across his eyes.
No matter whether she is lying or not, with him guarding the temple, he will not let go of any suspicious person.
Jiang Ru braved the wind and snow and ran all the way back to the guest room. Xiao Tao leaned against the door, stamping her feet while anxiously waiting for someone to come back.
My wife has been out for so long, so it would be better if nothing else happened.
Xiao Tao knew that Jiang Ru had frequent secret meetings with a man, but she had never seen the man's appearance. Jiang Ru was cautious, and even she didn't believe it now.
Xiaotao didn't dare to ask further questions, so she could only let her go in the room.
The door was pushed open, and Jiang Ru came in with her hair disheveled. She looked really embarrassed, and Xiao Tao was startled.
"Madam, what's wrong with you?"
She wanted to ask if she was bullied by that man. No matter what, she was still a noble daughter of the general's palace. She didn't know what to do if her body was taken away by a strange man. Xiao Tao's face was wrinkled tightly, and she didn't dare to think about it.
as a result of.
"Shh! Don't talk."
She covered Xiao Tao's mouth, put her ear on the door, and listened outside for a while. She didn't hear anyone chasing her, and her tense nerves completely relaxed.
"Lady?"
Xiaotao asked softly what happened to her and why she was so nervous.
Jiang Ru leaned against the door and took a breath, waiting for her breathing to calm down before speaking.
A kerosene lamp was lit in the room, and the charcoal basin on the ground gave off a faint light. Under the light, Jiang Ru slowly saw Xiaotao's face clearly.
Her face was burned and now has scars all over it, looking very scary.
Xiao Tao saw the disgust in Jiang Ru's eyes, she lowered her head suddenly and held the corners of her clothes tightly with her hands.
She knew that her appearance was scary, but fortunately she was in a temple now and didn't have to deal with people. Otherwise, if she had stayed in Jiang Mansion, Xiao Tao would have collapsed when she thought of the strange look in the eyes of the maid and woman beside her.
It was Jiang Ru who disfigured her out of anger. Xiao Tao didn't hate her, but she couldn't compare to Jiang Ru's ruthlessness. Her contract and life were both in Jiang Ru's hands. Even Xiao Tao's only resistance was quickly suppressed by her.
I will never dare to challenge Jiang Ru's authority again.
"You don't have to go out anymore."
Yuan Lang saw her appearance, and Jiang Ru followed his words and admitted that she was a maid of the Jiang family. There were only two female relatives in Huquan Temple, she and Xiaotao. If the maid suddenly changed, her identity would definitely be revealed.
And all the lies she made were exposed.
Jiang Ru did not allow her reputation to be lost, especially when people around Jiang Zhe found out. Now she was riding a tiger and had to switch identities with Xiao Tao.
Xiaotao raised her head, her eyes full of doubts.
Madam, what does this mean?
Jiang Ru didn't say much. She just told her that she would be the wife of the Jiang family in the future. If she was seriously ill and couldn't see people, she could just stay in the room honestly and wear a veil when seeing people. She could never be exposed.
identity.
Xiao Tao didn't understand her intention, but she had no choice but to obey her master's orders.
Jiang Ru took off all the clothes she wore today and stuffed them under the closet. From tomorrow on, she will be Xiao Tao.
Thinking of Tuoba Mingge's escape, she felt a little worried. With Yuan Lang guarding Huquan Temple, how would they meet in the future?
