The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Chapter 146: The Past (2)

Unable to find such a cave, although I can take some shelter from the wind and cold, I still feel my body chills intermittently, and the clothes next to me are soaked in snow water, and there is no other thing to keep warm at the moment, if I really want to wear cold clothes I really don't know what will happen in the end if my clothes are frozen overnight?

Jiang Ruan rubbed his forehead and was thinking about whether to go outside to find some more stones to block the hole tightly when he heard slight footsteps.

Her expression changed, she sat up very quickly, and listened carefully to the movement outside.

The sound of footsteps was slight, steady, slow and firm step by step, but there was no shouting, no other noises, not officers and soldiers, Jiang Ruan's heart sank, it was getting late here, where ordinary prey would not come, who the hell was it?

The footsteps came straight towards Shandong.

Jiang Ruan put her hand into her sleeve, and she still had the knife when she left. She held the cold knife tightly, with the tip of the knife facing outside, her eyes fixed on the entrance of the cave covered by bushes.

One step, one step, one step, every step hit her heart.

The footsteps stopped a few steps away, and Jiang Ruan breathed a sigh of relief.

In the next second, the bushes were knocked away by something, and a slender figure appeared at the entrance of the cave.

The sky was gloomy, it was evening, and in the dim light, his face was clearly reflected in Jiang Ruan's pupils.

In an instant, the two looked at each other, one surprised, the other slightly startled.

Jiang Ruan stared at him closely, Xiao Shao was dressed in black brocade, standing at the entrance of the cave, his already outstanding appearance was set off by the dark light and shadow, making the dark and dirty cave glow with bright light.

Xiao Shao was also looking at the person opposite, the girl's clothes were tightly attached to her body, her black hair was disheveled, and her eyes stared at him vigilantly and surprised. She has always been gentle and calm, laughing and playing with people and applauding, but now it is the first time she is so embarrassed.

But after a moment of confrontation, he strode in.

"Prince Xiao." After a while, Jiang Ruan came back to his senses, looked at him and said, "Why do you come here?"

"It's getting late, it's not right to go on the road here, you are extremely weak, you can't move around, it's better to stay here and wait for the officers and soldiers to come." Xiao Shao said quietly.

Jiang Ruan heard the meaning of his words, and smiled: "Prince Xiao wants to save me?" She still had doubts in her heart, Xiao Shao is an unfathomable person, and no one can guess his thoughts. Last time he helped Jiang Susu, and now he helped him several times, she couldn't understand what it meant.

Xiao Shao turned his head to look at her, with a pair of beautiful eyes as bright as ink paintings in the sky: "Kill 10,000 enemies and lose 3,000, is this your method?"

Seeing how she dealt with the Chancellor's Mansion, she kept her composure, pressed her every step of the way, led the snake out of the hole, and finally knocked her down in one fell swoop, making it impossible for the Prime Minister's Mansion to stand up. With ruthless methods and meticulous thoughts, this is the only person I have seen in my life at such a young age. But at the moment, it seems that even if she jumped into the cliff, she was planning on it. With such a plan, if the calculation is off by one point, she will end up losing her life. It's still so bold.

"It's wrong, it's killing one hundred thousand enemies and three thousand self-defeating." Jiang Ruan corrected him. Thinking of the desperate situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion at this moment, a slight pleasure flashed in her heart, but she knew that this was not enough. The pain Li Dong gave her and Pei Er must be repaid one by one.

Xiao Shao raised his eyebrows: "What kind of hatred does the Prime Minister's Mansion have against you?"

At first, he thought she was Ye Li's person, but after seeing that Ye Li was embarrassed at every step she made, he realized that it was not. The matter of the reservoir was directed at the prime minister's mansion. He did not hesitate to be buried with the Prime Minister's Mansion, so naturally there was a deep hatred, but he sent Jin Yiwei to find out what was wrong with Jiang Ruan and the Prime Minister's Mansion. What's more, when Li Yang and his son went to Jiang's mansion, it was the first time that Jiang Ruan and the Prime Minister's mansion met, so why did they become so ruthless the first time? Is it really that simple?

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "No comment." To Xiao Shao, she really couldn't feel at ease, but just after saying this, she coughed suddenly, her body was surprisingly cold, and she fainted for a while.

Xiao Shao stood up, before Jiang Ruan could see clearly what he was going to do, she felt her body warm up, and Xiao Shao's rain silk brocade crane cloak fluttered down on her body.

This crane cloak is obviously extremely warm, but it is so light that it doesn't seem to have a trace of weight. It is very light, because it has just been taken off Xiao Shao's body, and it still carries his temperature. Jiang Ruan was startled, Xiao Shao walked out.

Jiang Ruan hugged his crane cloak, and this crane cloak was like sending charcoal in the snow. Just now, his body like an ice cube finally had a little heat, but after a while, Xiao Shao came back again. I don't know where he picked up some dry firewood. The rain hadn't stopped and the snow hadn't melted. Finding firewood that wouldn't get wet was harder than going to heaven. Xiao Shao, covered in frost and snow, put the dry firewood on the ground and lit it with a torch. The firewood crackled and burned, and the dark cave suddenly became bright, which made people feel warm and warm.

Xiao Shao said: "Sit here and dry your clothes, otherwise the cold will penetrate into your bones and cause the root of the disease in the future."

Jiang Ruan didn't refuse, so she hugged the crane cloak and sat down in front of the fire. Sure enough, as soon as she got close to the fire, her body felt tight. She couldn't help but bring her hands closer, trying to warm them up.

Xiao Shao looked at her sideways, his expression suddenly changed, Jiang Ruan was startled, before he could react, Xiao Shao had already stretched out his hand to touch the inside of her neck, and his eyes moved.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Ruan was surprised, and said, "Prince Xiao has something to say?"

Xiao Shao shook her head, paused, and then her eyes fell on her shoulders again. Jiang Ruan was injured on his shoulder. Although he endured the action, there was still something strange. Xiao Shao's eyes were sharp, and he could spot the abnormality at a glance. After thinking for a while, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom and threw it into Jiang Ruan's bosom. Jiang Ruan took it and paused for a moment, uncorked the bottle, a scent of medicine wafted into his nostrils, Xiao Shao's voice was still cool: "You take the medicine yourself."

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "Thank you." But he was even more suspicious in his heart, Xiao Shao's helping each other seemed even more strange, this person acted ruthlessly, why is he so considerate today? Xiao Shao is mysterious and unpredictable, even Ye Li, who wanted to win him over, did not know the details of Xiao Shao in his last life, not to mention that he was so kind.

Seeing Jiang Ruan took the medicine, Xiao Shao didn't stay any longer, got up and left the cave. Like Jiang Ruan changing the dressing, in order to avoid suspicion, Jiang Ruan quickly sprinkled the medicine from the porcelain bottle on the wound, and roughly bandaged it. The medicine was probably a precious thing from the palace, it was on fire just after being sprinkled on it, but the wound soon stopped hurting.

Jiang Ruan felt relieved, but the medicine bottle looked familiar.

After a while, Xiao Shao came in again, holding newly found firewood and a skinned hare in his hands. He threw the firewood on the ground, picked two branches, tore up the rabbit meat, and roasted it on the fire.

Jiang Ruan stared blankly at his movements.
