"Are you looking for me to settle the old account?" Bei Mingxuan pinched the tip of her nose and twisted it lightly. "Why don't you say that you broke my work the first time and almost killed me? The second time. What are you hiding under my bed? I naturally thought you were an assassin. Who knew that the concubine from the General's Mansion was calculated and thrown into my room."

Ruan Jiujiu was speechless.

She hadn't settled the account yet, but he had settled it for her.

She hummed: "I was calculated twice, but you not only didn't pity Xiangxiyu, but you actually killed me and abused me. In this way, you are with that Ruan Qingqing and helped her bully me."

"Ruan Jiujiu." Bei Mingxuan stared at her, "Are you unreasonable?"

Ruan Jiujiu also fixedly looked at him: "It's not reasonable, how?"

"Not very good, but I'll take you to rest." When Bei Mingxuan said, he picked her up, and after fighting her for a long time, it was considered as a digestion. This time I will take her to sleep. never mind.

Ruan Jiujiu was taken aback, and said anxiously: "You can't, I don't want to go to sleep, you let me go."

Bei Mingxuan didn't care about her, he hugged her directly into the inner room, and put her on the bedside quickly.

Ruan Jiujiu struggled, she felt that Bei Mingxuan was a beast in this matter.

Bei Mingxuan held her down, lowered her voice and said in her ear: "You are good, I will only hold you to sleep, otherwise you know."

Ruan Jiujiu was shocked.

So be honest.

That night, Ning Han sent Xuanyuanzhao out of the city. Xuanyuanzhao was worried about Ruan Jiujiu and didn't dare to delay at all, so he ran in the direction of Hancheng.

The soldiers of Xuanyuancheng outside the city, because Xuanyuancheng was in the deserted city, did not dare to move rashly, and Xuanyuancheng did not return overnight, and they did not dare to rest.

As for the Xuanyuancheng guards in the city, they were imprisoned by Ning Mu. Although their freedom was not completely restricted, they could not leave the yard either.

As for Xuanyuancheng and Madam You, because Ninghou Mansion had no servants, the only two maids who served Ruan Jiujiu and Ning Shuang, so both Xuanyuancheng and Madam You were left unattended. They weren't too squeamish at first, but this is not their own territory, so the night was extremely uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

So early in the morning, everyone in Ninghou's Mansion got up, except Ruan Jiujiu and Bei Mingxuan.

This night, Ruan Jiujiu slept very peacefully, because Bei Mingxuan's words counted, he really didn't toss her, but just put her arms to sleep.

It was rare to be so comfortable, so she slept very carefree, and when she woke up, it was already very late.

After getting up with Bei Mingxuan to freshen up and change clothes, after breakfast, Ruan Jiujiu suddenly asked about Madam You with great interest.

Ning Shuang said: "Mrs. You and Wang Cheng live in the guest rooms of the two adjacent yards. They both got up early and used breakfast too. Wang Cheng wanted to come to see the prince, but was caught by Ning Mu. I stopped. As for Madam You, although she got up early, she didn't come out in her yard and did nothing."

"She is quite calm." She looked at Bei Mingxuan, "Didn't you say that she wanted that black box?"

Bei Mingxuan nodded.

Ruan Jiujiu put his cheek in his hand and thought for a while, "Since she wants it, she should have a way to open it, right?"

Bei Mingxuan raised his eyebrows and looked over and said: "Do you want to hit her on the idea?"

"It's also a way." Ruan Jiujiu said with interest, "Anyway, we can't open it. Wang Hai said that the clue is on you, but he doesn't know anything. It's better to try it from her. Horse doctor chant."

Bei Mingxuan glanced at Ning Shuang, Ning Shuang understood, and went out.

After a while, not only Madam You came, but Xuanyuancheng also came. He was fidgeting in the guest room, so he walked out from time to time to see if Bei Mingxuan and Ruan Jiujiu were up. Seeing Ning Shuang, I asked her, and immediately followed.

Both Bei Mingxuan and Ruan Jiujiu ignored Xuanyuancheng. Xuanyuancheng now knew that he had nothing to talk about, but Xuanyuanzhao had to retrieve the medicine from the cold city and exhausted the horse to death. It only took seven or eight days. .

Could it be that he stayed here for seven or eight days?

And it's still less.

He felt mad when he thought of this, but he himself agreed to Mrs. You to enter the city to negotiate, and the bitter fruit he planted himself would have to swallow no matter how bitter he was.

He only hopes that Madam You will soon turn around here.

Ruan Jiujiu saw Madam You come in and said, "You want Ninghou's black box?"

"Yes." Madam You said simply.

Ruan Jiujiu also asked directly: "Can you open it?"

Madam You's eyes fell on Ruan Jiujiu's body, and she said with a trace of pride in her eyes: "You probably can't open it. I have some clues."

Ruan Jiujiu was not irritated by her, and said lightly: "It can't be opened, but if it is a clue, we also have it. Ning Shuang, go and invite Wang Hai."

Ning Shuang nodded and went.

Madam You was startled.

Because she didn't know who Ruan Jiujiu was talking about Wang Hai, she originally thought Ruan Jiujiu was helpless to find her, but now it doesn't seem to be such a thing.

She wanted to ask again, Ruan Jiujiu had already focused on the plate of chestnut cake in front of him. It was obvious that the one named Wang Hai would not come, so she would not speak.

Madam You was upset, but she had no choice but to keep silent.

After a while, Ning Shuang and Wang Hai came.

"The old slave sees the prince and concubine."

Ruan Jiujiu wiped his hands and said, "Get up."

Wang Hai got up.

Ruan Jiujiu said: "This lady said that she has some clues about the black box."

She said and pointed to Mrs. You.

Madam You's eyes sank slightly, Ruan Jiujiu's appearance made her feel uncomfortable.

Wang Hai turned and looked at Madam You.

Madam You was also looking at Wang Hai, and couldn't help asking: "Who are you?"

Wang Haidao: "Who is the madam? Why are there clues to the black box?"

Madam You said coldly: "It doesn't matter to you."

Wang Hai's expression was faint, and he turned his head and said: "Wang Hao, the old slave has thought about it these past two days and thought of some clues."

When Ruan Jiujiu heard this, his eyes brightened, and he turned to look at Bei Mingxuan.

Bei Mingxuan looked at Wang Hai and asked, "How to open the box?"

Wang Hai nodded.

"Wait a minute. You promised to give this box to me." Madam You was immediately anxious when she heard that, if they opened the box before Ruan Jiujiu detoxified, what else could she get?

Ruan Jiujiu looked at Madam You with a smile, and said, "The premise is that you can completely detoxify me."

Madam You's eyes changed and said: "If you open the box, then I won't detoxify you."

"I can't help you." Bei Mingxuan said coldly.

Madam You suddenly felt like she wanted to say something, but Xuanyuancheng on one side said, "Madam, you have to detoxify Princess Ming."

"King Cheng, you..." Madam You looked at Xuanyuan Cheng in disbelief.

Xuanyuancheng's anger has accumulated a lot, and he said without paying attention: "This king came to negotiate at what his wife said, but you can't completely detoxify Princess Ming, so this king can't leave now. And mother queen. Still here, the father's side is also poisoned, even if the wife does not consider her own king, she must also consider the mother's queen and father's queen."

Madam You became a little thicker.

She could hear the grievances in Xuanyuancheng's words clearly, and Xuanyuancheng was complaining about him now.

Humph, what happened to the Empress Beiyue being poisoned?

She came here only to find Ruan Jiujiu and take the things in the box.

But she can't say these things now. Looking at Xuanyuancheng's appearance, if she knows that she is only using him to enter the city, I'm afraid he will collapse and her plan will be broken.

"I have my discretion, so I don't need to talk too much about you."

Xuanyuancheng was very annoyed, and said, "Madam, it's fine."

Madam You stopped paying attention to Xuanyuancheng, turned around and looked at Ruan Jiujiu, "In this world, no one else can open that box. Even if this person has any clues, I guess it’s just clues. None of you can. There is a way to open it last."

"Madam so confident?" Ruan Jiujiu raised his eyebrows.

Madam You felt that Ruan Jiujiu was agitating her, but she had to be agitated now, and said: "If you don't believe it, you might as well tell him about his clues and see if he can open it up."

When Wang Hai heard her say this, he said: "The clues of the prince, the princess, and the old slave should allow us to open the box."

After hearing this, Ruan Jiujiu glanced from Wang Hai to Madam You, and said, "Since you say that, how about we try?"

Wang Hai nodded and said, "Old slave is willing to give it a try."

Mrs. You's eyes lit up and said: "It's not bad to try."

Ruan Jiujiu asked Ning Shuang to take out the box from the inside.

The box was taken out and placed in front of Ruan Jiujiu. Ruan Jiujiu gently rubbed the box and looked at the person in front of him faintly.

Wang Haidao: "Wang Hao, the old slave carefully recalled the things about this box in the past two days. The old slave remembered clearly at the time. Ning Hou said that he wanted to leave some important things to the young master, but the time is not ripe, so he wants to build The box packs things up. This box was built by Ninghou at that time. After Ninghou built it, he killed all the craftsmen who helped him build the box, so that no one would know the secret of this box."

Ruan Jiujiu heard this and raised his eyebrows.

Ninghou's approach can be said to be very clever, but also very cruel.

But this is not the point. She listened to Wang Hai continuing to say: "Ninghou naturally did not tell the old slave the secret of the box, but the old slave remembered one thing, that is, this box seems to be different from the original one."

"Not the same? How to say?" Ruan Jiujiu raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Wang Hai looked at the box carefully, and Ruan Jiujiu simply let Ning Shuang pass the box into his hand.

Wang Hai took it, looked at it carefully, turned to the bottom of the box and looked again, then turned to the top.

Finally he raised his eyes and said: "Wang Hao, although the box was also black at the time, the old slave remembered that there was a pattern on the bottom of the box, but the color of the pattern was black, similar to black. Looking at the bottom, you will feel that the entire box is black."
