Chapter 60: Calm

Outside the city gate, she returned in rags, obviously it should be a scene where people were so ashamed that they wanted to commit suicide and hang themselves to end their lives, but her face was calm, and her eyes were bright and clear as if they were written with disdain for the world, which he had never seen in Murong Qiqi.

Calm, steady, wise, and for him, the expression that would be fascinated every time he saw it was gone, replaced by a slightly vague familiarity in the strange.

It's no wonder that he paid so much attention to her, just because Murong Qiqi at that time was really unexpected by him.

In the mother's Xinyi Pavilion, she can still remain fearless in the face of strong pressure alone, even if she is afraid in her heart, she can do it calmly, and even, when she is almost desperate, she holds Mingzhu hostage and wants to escape.

At that time, in the entire Xinyi Pavilion, the only one who could see through her threat was him.

At the time, I was really angry, but now that I think about it, not only do I not feel angry, but I feel slightly distressed for her.

A calm person like her, if she hadn't been to the Jedi, she wouldn't have done such an impulsive thing.

The white jade cup was playing with it in her hand, thinking of her tears tonight, and her heart was strangely dull.

If it weren't for the fact that she was in a desperate situation, how could a strong girl choose to commit suicide? After more than ten years of enduring humiliation and burden, it was extremely difficult for her to live......

Perhaps for any other woman, tonight's qiē would be enough to rob them of all their courage to live.

There was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door, Chu Liuyun's eyebrows widened slightly, and the white jade cup was put aside on the low table.

There was a knock on the door, and his subordinates said respectfully: "Lord Wang, the people have brought it back." ”

"Bring him in. ”

The door was pushed open, and Feng Minghua, who looked panicked, walked in under the escort of two guards, and when he saw Chu Liuyun, the wine he had just drunk in the flower street outside suddenly woke up halfway, and he already understood what was going on in his heart.

In the Xuanhua Hall tonight, the positions of this Yun Wang Ye and Concubine Yi don't seem to be very consistent! They are clearly mother and son, but one wants Murong Qiqi to die without a place to be buried, and the other is maintained everywhere.

"Wang ...... Cousin of the prince. Kneeling down under the push of the guards, Feng Minghua looked up at Chu Liuyun on the Taishi's chair, his voice was still a little trembling, but he still tried to put on a flattering smile: "Cousin Wangye, this is ...... What does this mean?"

"This king does not have a cousin like you. "This Feng Minghua is a gentleman who has gone out in the imperial city, because of the distant relative of Concubine Yi, although the family is not first-class wealthy, but it is still a bit of status among the nobles.

He despised this kind of person in his life the most.

"Wang ...... Rajah. Feng Minghua also knew that this distant cousin had never looked down on him, so he would say it so clearly, he didn't give any affection, and it was not good for him to continue to cling.

He took a deep breath, let his still somewhat chaotic head pick up some consciousness slightly, and said with a forced smile: "I don't know if the prince let the villain come here, right...... What does that mean?"

It was not early, and after he left the palace, he went directly to Yingxiang Tower, and when the two guards came to look for him, he was already drunk in the gentle country.

Now, it's almost midnight.

Chu Liuyun just glanced at him lightly, then picked up the teapot on the side again, poured himself a cup of fragrant tea and held it in his hand: "Where were you on the fifth night of the sixth month?"

"June ...... The fifth day of the first month?" Feng Minghua shook his head, and for a while he couldn't remember what day it was.

"That night, there was a temple fair in the north of the city, and I heard that many young girls' families would go to offer incense and pray for blessings. ”

Feng Minghua's heart was shocked, and he suddenly remembered something, his face, which was slightly ruddy because of drinking, turned a little pale.

He smiled uneasily before he said, "That'...... That night was a little uncomfortable, so I went to bed early. ”

"Did you really never go out all night?" Chu Liuyun glanced at him, his eyes were clearly calm, and there were no waves, but the other party read a little bit of a terrifying aura in his eyes.

Terrible...... Feng Minghua swallowed his saliva, although he didn't have much contact with Lord Yun, but the people in the entire imperial city knew that Lord Yun was fair and decent, he ...... It shouldn't be scary.

For this reason, he barely suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and said with a smile: "Self-...... Nature is true. ”

"Drag it out and hit twenty boards. His voice was faint.

"Yes. The guard's voice was sonorous.

Twenty plates...... It wasn't until the person was pressed down and the guards got off the board, and in the howl like killing a pig, Feng Minghua reacted, Lord Yun really wanted someone to reward him with the board!

Outside, the sound of wailing and begging for mercy continued, which seemed particularly discordant under the quiet night, and it was a little disturbing and peaceful.

Chu Liuyun was still tasting the tea, and I don't know how long it took, before Feng Minghua, who had been beaten and almost fainted, was dragged back again, knelt on the ground, and begged: "Lord, Lord Wang, spare your life, the little one will say everything, say everything......"

Say. The sharp gaze swept away, but the other party closed his mouth in an instant, his starry eyes were half-narrowed, and a hint of danger flashed in his eyes: "Probably, you haven't tried the taste of pepper water splashed on the wound, come on!"

"No, my lord, the little one said...... The little ones say everything......"

Chu Liuyun guessed correctly, it was indeed Feng Minghua who knocked Qiqi out of the imperial city that night, after he took people out, he originally planned to ruin her innocence, but before the matter was carried out, he had already been knocked out from behind.

As for what happened later, he didn't know, when he woke up and went back to the city, he heard that Murong Qiqi was blocked at the city gate when he came back this morning.

Although things were not as planned, the effect was the same, so the person who instructed him did not say anything, and he naturally did not have much trouble.

This Feng Minghua is completely a person who can't endure the slightest hardship, and he will say everything after being beaten with twenty boards.

"Who is the one who commanded you?"

Feng Minghua was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Murong Susu, the sixth princess of Nanmu Kingdom." ”

Chu Liuyun narrowed his eyes, and his voice became a little colder: "Who else?"

"I didn't ...... There's no one left!"

"It seems that you still haven't suffered enough. As soon as Chu Liuyun waved his hand, the guards guarding both sides immediately stepped forward, intending to drag the people on the ground up.

Feng Minghua hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, there is really no one else, if the Lord doesn't believe it, it is better to kill the little one directly, what the little one said is the truth." ”

He gritted his teeth, such a cowardly person, at this time, he actually looked at death as if he were at home: "The prince doesn't need to toss the little one anymore, the little one has nothing to say, the prince might as well kill the little one directly!"

Chu Liuyun stared at him and didn't speak for a long time, but the guards didn't come to drag him away again.

For a while, Chu Liuyun just pinched the jade cup and swirled it gently, no one knew what he was thinking, or he didn't think about anything at all, just half-closed starry eyes resting.

I don't know how long it took for him to open his eyes again, staring at Feng Minghua, who had been panting and wailing because of pain, and his eyes were sharp: "You really haven't touched the Seventh Princess?"

"No!" At this time, he couldn't see that Yun Wang Ye cared about the Seventh Princess, he was really stupid to death, he gasped: "Tonight is ...... What is said in the Xuanhua Palace, not to hide it from the prince, is ...... It was all instructed by Concubine Yi, and the little one night didn't even touch a finger of the seventh princess, and was knocked unconscious. ”

"Who is it?"

"I didn't see the little one. ”

Chu Liuyun fell silent again, and after a while, he waved his hand and said, "Come on, write a confession for him." ”

Confession...... That is to say, in the future, it is guaranteed that it will be placed in the court or the criminal department, Feng Minghua is naturally afraid, but he is afraid of the majesty of Lord Yun, he can't write it.

endured the pain at the moment, and finally wrote a confession that satisfied the prince, and printed his fingerprints, before being thrown out of the gate of the Yunwang Mansion.

Twenty boards are not too much, but for people like him who have never known how to spend time and drink, it is really heavy.

Finally got up from the ground, but he didn't dare to alarm anyone, so he could only endure the severe pain and leave, thinking about finding a carriage to send him back to the mansion after staying away from the Yunwang Mansion.

Unexpectedly, he had just walked out of the avenue in front of the palace, and before he could enter the street, a person in front of him blocked his way.

She was dressed in black, covered with black veil, green silk like ink, and the whole person almost blended into the night, and her face could not be seen clearly, but just looking at that Miaoman's figure, she knew at a glance that she was definitely a beauty embryo.

Feng Minghua has been lingering in Fengyue for many years, and he understands the woman's body very thoroughly, this woman's posture is like a blue lotus in the wind, although she is covered in frost, but the lines, the posture ......

The best, definitely the best among women!

The woman hooked her thin lips and walked towards him.

Feng Minghua should obviously be scared, because of the cold air that constantly overflowed from her body, but because of this figure, she actually became happy.

"Girl......" he called happily, holding back the pain in his buttocks, and looked at the woman who came to him, "Is the girl lost?

Scold...... The woman in black smiled lightly, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she smiled in horror.

Dressed in a night suit and covered with black veil, should such a woman be lost?

The little hand fell on his chest, and the faint fragrance came to his nose, making him drowsy.

"Auntie...... The girl ...... "Feeling that her little hand was going down her chest, Feng Minghua suddenly felt a flower in her heart, she wouldn't be so lucky tonight, she actually met someone who came to give her a hug!"

Could it be that his Feng Gongzi's romance is really so famous in the imperial city, and these girls all came to dedicate themselves under false names?

I just don't know if the injury on my buttocks will affect the joy of the meeting......

But even though it still hurts, when he felt the woman's hand come to his abdomen, somewhere he suddenly became excited.

The woman leaned over slightly and half-squatted, her little hand stopped on his abdomen, and suddenly looked up at him, a pair of cloudy eyes exposed outside the black veil glowed with a sheer luster: "I heard that Gongzi is very powerful, is it true?"
