Chapter 15 Rules, break them(1/2)
After returning to the room, Ruan Li could not calm down her mood for a long time. Shen Sichen seemed to be holding an extremely sharp ax and wanted to split the mountain in her heart.
At this time, a carrier pigeon with red soles flew out of the window. It was the carrier pigeon of Prince Yun's Mansion.
Ruan Li quickly stepped forward and took off the letter tied to the pigeon's foot.
I opened the note and took a look, but I only got some invalid information.
Only then did she realize that she had gone out on business just a few months ago, and now only a few brothers remained in Prince Yun's mansion.
So now it seems that she needs to find the answer to the relationship between the original owner and her by herself.
In the flash of lightning, she seemed to suddenly think of someone.
"Ziyu, please tell me more about Bai Lingyin."
Ruan Li called Ziyu and asked
If she remembered correctly, Bai Xiangguo was responsible for the destruction of the Ruan family back then. She used to only know that Bai Xiangguo's daughter was the most talented woman in the world, and she had a photographic memory since she was a child.
When I was young, I helped my father organize files, but I didn’t know her name was Bai Lingyin.
"Bai Lingyin, the most talented woman, is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting..."
At this time, Ruan Li had completely forgotten what happened on the carriage just now, only Shen Sichen was still thinking about it.
"What do you think she meant when she said "it's troublesome" just now?" Shen Sichen stood in front of his desk and paced back and forth with a confused look on his face.
Anan and Xiao He looked at their young generals who were pacing back and forth in front of them. They stared at each other with blank faces. When they confirmed that the other party didn't know anything, they rolled their eyes at each other and turned away.
"Do you think she doesn't want to marry me?"
Shen Sichen was a little irritable and couldn't let her feel troubled.
"Major General, let me tell you, we don't know anything about what just happened. Don't worry about it here. Why don't you go directly to Miss Ah Ruan and ask?"
Anan looked at Shen Sichen's irrational appearance and couldn't help but remind him.
"Yes, yes, I'll ask directly. Why didn't you respond just now? I didn't ask. But I think that sentence should have a good effect."
Just when he was about to go out, he looked at the dark sky and took back his feet.
"Forget it, let's ask again tomorrow, it's too late today."
Anan breathed a sigh of relief and could finally sleep.
But who knew that the next second, they received another instruction from Shen Sichen.
"Immediately select twenty secret guards tonight from five thousand secret guards who are agile and extremely powerful in martial arts. Let them protect Ah Ruan at all times, every minute and every second. If Ah Ruan has If something goes wrong, it's not just them, but you too, please bring it up to me."
"yes."
Anan and Xiao He immediately retreated after receiving the order, picking them out overnight.
I originally thought that my general was a wise and wise man with deep sense of righteousness, but unexpectedly he turned out to be a tyrant who was blinded by love.
This group of secret guards were quickly selected. After receiving the order, they did not dare to slack off and immediately lurked around Ruan Li's room.
"Hey, I didn't expect that after all, I am also a dignified secret guard, and I am still called a famous one, and now I am sent to squat on the roof to protect a woman."
One of the secret guards, Ah Qi, was angry and complained to the people around him.
Not only him, but also the twenty secret guards were reluctant. After all, they all wanted to do something, but who knew they would be sent to protect a woman now.
But there is no other way, their master has orders, and they can only obey.
After a while, they saw Ruan Li going out.
As soon as she went out, Ruan Li looked around.
Sure enough, she had just felt right in the house, and while she was still sleeping, she noticed that there was a group of people on the roof, and there were others around the room, and they all had extraordinary martial arts skills.
When I go out now, I see that it is indeed the case. There is really an extra group of people for no reason.
Are these people sent by Shen Sichen to protect her? But to her, what is the difference between this and surveillance?
The corners of Ruan Li's mouth twitched again and again, and she led Ziyu out of the door. Seeing this, the secret guards followed her quietly.
Immediately afterwards, they followed Ruan Li to the teahouse.
"Ziyu, are you sure this is here?"
Looking up at the teahouse with the name of the product above her, Ruan Li turned to Ziyu to confirm.
Although Ziyu was not reused, she had a free-spirited temperament and was popular. So early this morning, she sent Ziyu out to inquire about Bai Lingyin.
Soon I got the news that Bai Lingyin came back to the teahouse on the 10th and 20th of every month to have a couple.
"Miss, this is the right place."
"Let's go in then."
Ruan Li nodded and prepared to walk in, but unexpectedly, the people inside seemed to be all men.
"Hey, girl, who are you looking for?"
The person in charge of reception came out, but the receptionist didn't seem to pay much attention to Ruan Li's arrival.
"I want to see Bai Lingyin, Miss Bai Lingyin of the Prime Minister's Palace."
Hearing this, the receptionist thought that this was a lady from a noble family, and immediately put on the most hypocritical smile.
"Miss, please wait a moment. Please allow me to ask the waiter to pass the message. I'll be right back."
After saying that, he asked people to go upstairs to find a private room.
"Poor scholar, you can go wherever you want. This teahouse is not a place for you to come in."
Ruan Li was sitting and waiting for the child's call to come back when she saw the receptionist blocking a scholar wearing a shabby shirt with a fierce look.
"Isn't everyone allowed in the teahouse? Besides, I just want to come in and get a match."
"Isn't this a place where you can come? If you have money, you dare to come."
The receptionist looked impatient and wanted to drive the scholar away.
"Does talent also depend on money?"
The scholar's eyes widened and he made it clear that he didn't want to leave.
"Are you leaving?"
At this time, the receptionist had already called a group of people, who looked like they were going to deal with the scholar.
"If I don't leave, I won't believe that there is no royal law in the world."
The scholar looked stubborn, as if he didn't believe they would take action.
However, when these people in front of him rushed forward, the scholar did not react and froze on the spot.
"stop."
Ruan Li spoke unhurriedly, turning the tea cup in the restaurant in her hand, but she didn't even look at these people.
Everyone turned their attention to the source of the sound.
This woman is really, really good at finding trouble.
The secret guard on the roof was a little speechless. This was the rule of the teahouse. Did she still want to break it? Well, when the fight breaks out, they will have to clean up the mess. It's really painful to stand and talk.
"My lord, I advise you not to cause such trouble."
The receptionist looked at Ruan Li in front of him and reminded him in a slightly threatening tone.
"What if I don't?"
"Then you have to think clearly about the consequences."
"I think very clearly. My Xie family has never been afraid of anyone."
Ruan Li said with a smile, a shrewd look flashed in her eyes.
"Xie family?"
The receptionist sneered, this was Concubine Shu's property, and the little Xie family dared to act recklessly here.
"Receptionist, to put it bluntly, you are just a waiter. Are you so serious?" Ruan Li looked at the leader with a smile, "Since ancient times, everything has been inferior. Only those who are well-educated and talented should not be judged by status. Status
One should not judge one's status based on one's family status."
"This is the rule of our teahouse."
"So what about the rules? Your rules are inherently unequal, and they are broken."
She said these few words softly, but they made people want to surrender inexplicably.
"Our rules are just rules and cannot be broken. "
The expressions of the people receiving them changed again and again. There were already so many inequalities in the world, especially in terms of origin, so what? What could they change?
"But what if I have to break this rule today and let this scholar in?"
"Then I have no choice but to apologize." He took a step back and directed the people behind him, "Come on."
Hearing this, the people behind him wanted to attack him with their bare hands.
