Chapter 036: Crime and Punishment
In response to the editor's call, and today is my 10th wedding anniversary, so I will add a new chapter at 3 p.m. I wish myself a happy 10th wedding anniversary, and I look forward to everyone's continued support and companionship on such a special day, thank you——
Red and swollen eyes stared blankly at the empty room, and the room without Yun Hui suddenly felt terrible empty.
Yun Hui is not yet twelve years old, it's me who is not good, it is me who has involved Yun Hui, if it weren't for me being too stubborn and stubborn, I wouldn't have provoked the Li family, and I wouldn't have killed her. I subconsciously looked at my hands, as if they were Yun Hui who had been killed by these hands, and this feeling of despair made me fall into fear that I couldn't break free. I buried my head between my hands, and tears flowed down again, which was a deep guilt and self-blame for Yun Hui.
Just then, the door opened, and the sound of hurried footsteps made me look up with difficulty, and no matter what the news was, it didn't matter to me anymore. What could be worse than now, the corners of my lips hooked up with a self-deprecating wry smile, and I said coldly to Mama Pang who came in:
"Say, what's the matter, is it my turn? Is it Li or Yinzhen?"
"Gege, no, yes...... It's Yunhui. Seeing that I was lost and called the names of the two people, Mama Pang lowered her head and said cautiously.
"Yun Hui......? The name "How to ......" surprised me, and I wanted to ask "Is she okay", but looking at Mama Pang's appearance, it was not very good, but I didn't dare to ask anything else.
Yun Hui's injury was not light, the master asked her to bring her back from the side Fujin, and the person who sent her back said that the doctor had seen it and was injured...... Some of them are heavy, and they say that they want to recuperate for a few days....... Mama Pang replied closely, her eyes were a little red, but it was conceivable that Yunhui would not look very good when she was sent back, and it must not be so lightly she said.
"Yunhui...... Are you really back?" I was a little surprised by this result, so much so that I didn't have time to pay attention to who saved her, and I didn't bother to care about the consequences of today's impulsiveness, all I wanted was to hurry up and see with my own eyes if Yun Hui was okay.
"Quick, take me around. I said to Mama Pang.
Mama Pang hesitated: "However, the master said that you can't let Gege take half a step out of the house." ”
"Do you think that with today's incident, I still care what he says?" I raised my head, looked at Mama Pang, and spoke coldly, just like my heart that I already felt.
Mama Pang didn't speak, just retreated to the side and drove away. I bowed my head to her slightly, thanked her, and then walked out of the house and went to Yunhui's room.
Yun Hui lay on the bed weakly, blood was still spilling out of the medicated area below her waist, and her ten knuckles were obviously red and swollen, which showed that she had used the kind of torture instrument called finger pinching.
Yun Hui was facing the inside of the bed, I couldn't see her face, I didn't know if she was asleep, but I wanted to make sure if she was really okay, so I stepped forward and whispered, "Yun Hui?"
Yun Hui tried to turn her head when she heard my shout, her pale little face was obviously flushed and swollen by the continuous palms of her mouth, the corners of her mouth were broken, the dried blood stains made people feel shocked, and her eyes were swollen from the soaking of tears. That's it, when she saw me, she didn't forget to pull out a smile, but the smile was distorted by the scars and pain.
I sat down on the edge of her bed, looking at her haggard with distress, thinking about her bright eyes and bright teeth before, and my heart was filled with indescribable sourness.
Seeing my worried look, Yun Hui said in a hoarse voice: "Gege, I didn't say anything, don't worry." ”
Yun Hui's sentence of "rest assured" made my tears break again, I didn't expect this girl to be so loyal to me, and she was still protecting me at this time. And I have always been wary and suspicious of her.
I shook my head and said with tears in my eyes: "Silly girl, I am not worried about you, but I think that you should say that I instructed you, so that you will obey their wishes, and I will not torture you like this." Why are you so protective of me, why?"
"Gege said that even if he is wrong, he will do his best to protect the slave, so I have been gritting my teeth, believing that Gege will try to save the minion, but this is not really waiting. Yun Hui's childish words were full of trust and steadfastness in me, which made me feel even more ashamed.
"It's me who is not good, if I wasn't so stubborn, you wouldn't be like this by me. I said reproachfully.
"Gege's kindness to the minions, the minions remember it all their lives, even if they die for Gege, the minions are willing. Yun Hui said movingly.
"Don't say this kind of thing, I want you to live, and I also said that I will protect you from the media. Now that you can come back, I'm relieved. I wiped away my tears, covered her with the quilt, and said softly.
She nodded, and said with some concern: "Gege, I heard that this time it was the master who sent someone to arrive in time to save the minion." Just looking at the meaning of Fang Fujin, I'm afraid it won't be just like that, and what should be done in the future. ”
Yun Hui didn't know about me going to Yinzhen, and Mama Pang must have been afraid that she would worry, so they didn't tell her about my grounding.
Today, when I made such a fuss, my heart suddenly opened up a lot. In fact, the previous depression was ridiculous to me. I am who I am, why should I be bound by my current fate. Isn't history supposed to have its course, and why should I care too much about what I might change?
Now that I'm grounded, it's not necessarily a bad thing, at least the rights and wrongs outside have nothing to do with me from now on, maybe that's how history should be. Everything is back on track, and you can't hide from what should be.
"It's okay, let her go, don't say anything and don't think about it, just take care of your injuries. "Seeing that she was very tired, I didn't say anything more to her, anyway, it was not too late to talk about some things when she healed from her injuries.
Told Mama Pang to take good care of Yunhui, and walked back to the house by herself, and the sudden relaxation and excessive emotional venting made me feel physically and mentally exhausted. I don't want to hear anything, I don't want to speak, I don't want to think about anything.
Now I just want to get a good night's sleep, and I hope to wake up and find that it was all just my own dream. I'm still in front of my computer, looking at the information about Yinzhen, everything about Emperor Yongzheng that I respect and love, completely putting myself outside of history, smiling at the ups and downs of these people, all of which have nothing to do with me.
However, I know that this is only my hope, and I will spend my life reading a known history and living someone else's life. I can't tell whether such a rare encounter is fortunate or unfortunate.
When I woke up, it was already early the next morning. Her voice became hoarse because of crying, and she habitually called Yun Hui to remember that she was recuperating from her injuries.
Xiao Shunzi walked in in response, bowed down, and said, "Yunhui had a fever all night last night, and Mama Pang is taking care of it, so today the slave will serve Gege in the morning." ”
I nodded, and when I got up, I saw a maid standing in the outer hall behind him, and asked, "What is she doing?"
"Back to Gege, the master sent a message last afternoon, saying that since this day, the master has sent someone to guard the gate of the garden, and no one in this garden is allowed to go out, and no one outside is allowed to enter this garden without permission. Xiao Shunzi helped me to the couch near the window to serve tea, called the maid in, and said: "The master said that the regulations in the house are all fixed, although Gege is at fault first, but there should be no less, now Yunhui wants to recuperate, Gege can not be less than a person around, so let Su Gonggong pick a well-behaved person to come over to make up for the manpower, as for the daily use, it is also arranged by Su Gonggong himself, even Fujin and side Fujin can not interfere with half a point." "After that, let the servant come and say goodbye.
This maid's name is Aster, and she is older than Xiao Shunzi, in her early twenties, with a simple face, low eyebrows, and pleasing eyes, and she does not look like a city government. I heard Xiao Shunzi say that she was originally Aunt Fengcha in the front yard, and she was the one who served Yinzhen, and she was steady and decent, Yinzhen sent her, in addition to taking over Yunhui to wait for me, she also intended to let her help Mama Pang teach me the rules, so as not to do anything reckless.
In addition to the grounding, there is no punishment and embarrassment, and there is even a meaning of protection in disguise. Looking at Yinzhen's special arrangement, I couldn't understand what he wanted to do. The kind of calm I wanted came suddenly after the storm, and I was overwhelmed by the suddenness of it.
