Chapter 229 Becoming a Rebel Secret Guard (29)

The night was still and deep, and the candles in the study were all extinguished, and it was dark.

But there is moonlight shrouded through the window, so that although the light in the room is a bit dim, you can see things.

Jiang Rao sneaked into the room and searched around.

Not long after she returned to the palace, she received a task from Rong Ci, asking her to find the private correspondence between Rong Yan and Xie's family.

After all, the emperor didn't like courtiers to communicate with the prince, so even though Rong Yan and Xie's family were related by in-laws, they could only minimize their communication on the surface and contact each other in private.

But Rong Yan is not a stupid person, he will not leave anything against him.

So this time she didn't come here for the so-called letter, but wanted to take this opportunity to get Rong Yan's seal to prepare for the future.

Jiang Rao had seen Rong Yan use it before, but she really didn't know where it was hidden.

I don't know how long it took, but after she searched all over the study, there was no trace of the seal.

She frowned as she looked at the familiar furnishings around her, thought for a few seconds and walked away from the study.

After all, there are still opportunities.

The night was dark.

Jiang Rao avoided secret whistles and eyeliners along the way, and when he was about to approach his courtyard, he heard noises approaching not far away.

It is particularly abrupt in the deep silence.

"Catch assassins!"

"Don't let him get away..."

"..."

No, she obviously avoided being discovered!

I can't manage so much now!

Hearing the sound of footsteps becoming more and more obvious, Jiang Rao looked around, and noticed that the corner of the wall was pitch black and covered by tree shadows, making it difficult to detect.

She hurried over to hide.

But I didn't want someone to be there.

Taking advantage of her unpreparedness, the man grabbed her with one hand and covered her mouth with the other, imprisoning her so that she could not move.But Jiang Rao didn't want to be controlled by others, just when she was about to struggle to get away, she heard the man's cold warning.

"Don't move."

His voice was deep, and he didn't deliberately cover up his impatience, so he was no stranger.

Capacity dump.

Jiang Rao was stunned for a few seconds and stopped struggling.

Seeing her compromise, Rong Qing released the force that restrained her, and then pushed her away, and the distance between the two of them who were close to each other was instantly distanced.

Jiang Rao: "..."

No, what does he mean?
But when she heard the sound of the guards coming over, she quickly pressed against the wall, completely hiding herself in the darkness.

"Not here!"

"Go over there and have a look..."

"He seems to have run over there, chase after him!"

"..."

After the guards left the area, Jiang Rao breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced to the side, but there was no movement. If she could not hear the man's shallow breathing, she would not think that there was someone beside her.

"So it was your fault."

Jiang Rao took the initiative to speak, she did not deliberately change her voice, it was exactly the same as usual.

Although she couldn't see the man's reaction, she had no doubt that Rong Qing didn't recognize her now.

Otherwise, she would have failed!

Jiang Rao guessed right.

Under the darkness, when Rong Qing heard her familiar voice, his body froze for a moment. He didn't expect such a coincidence.

Ben thought that fleeing to the second prince's side would arouse suspicion and at the same time see her again.

But at the moment, he was at a loss for what to do.

Perhaps the girl thought he was too silent, Rong Qing heard her voice again, "Why don't you dare to speak, is it because you are afraid that I will recognize you?"

Rong Qing's chest rose and settled almost imperceptibly, and he took a while before opening his mouth, "It's just a chance meeting."

He deliberately lowered his voice, which was exactly the same as his usual gentle voice.

After a few seconds, he heard the girl's affirmative answer.

"I've never heard that sound."

Hearing this, he glanced at the person beside him with dark eyes, and his expression became more and more condensed.

What Rong Qing didn't know was that the arc of the girl's mouth couldn't stop rising in the darkness.
