Volume 1 The Dragon Rises Chapter 50 The Theory of Cause and Effect
Su Qing'er's eyes had a resolute look, she stood up and stopped Chen Jingcang and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is decisive in killing, there is no need for a reason to kill people, if I say it, presumably my family will not be able to escape the clutches of His Royal Highness the Prince." It's just that I really have too much incomprehension and resentment in my heart, even if it kills everyone in my Su family, I still have to scold you before I die today. β
Chen Jingcang turned around and asked inexplicably: "I, Chen Jingcang, am I really such an unreasonable person?" If nothing else, as long as Miss Qing'er makes a reason, I, Chen Jingcang, can give you a guarantee that I will not move your Su family at all." β
"Is this true?" Su Qing'er had a hint of hope in her eyes.
Chen Jingcang didn't speak, just nodded.
"Okay, I'll reason with Your Highness, but Your Highness can't go back on your word when the time comes. β
Chen Jingcang laughed: "I can't guarantee it before, but looking at your actions, I think you really have a reason to kill me, and whether your reason is reasonable or not, I'll listen to it." β
Chen Jingcang was actually a little vigilant about the little murderous aura he felt before, in his opinion, it was difficult to be the group of people from Tie Jiantai, but after listening to the words of the woman in front of him, he ruled out the possibility that she was a person from Tie Jiantai, so he was patient and ready to listen to what the woman in front of him said.
Chen Jingcang was in a coma for more than two months, and he really couldn't think of provoking the enemy again, under some coercion, it was obvious that Su Qing'er's psychological defense line had collapsed, Chen Jingcang turned his back and actually wanted to laugh, while Su Qing'er thought that Chen Jingcang had lost his patience.
Su Qing'er still had a lot of fear of Chen Jingcang in her heart, she was really afraid that Chen Jingcang would use means to find out her family, and all her family members would be affected by her, so she had to open her mouth to answer Chen Jingcang's questions.
"Your Highness, do you know that you killed five people more than two months ago?" Su Qing'er looked directly at Chen Jingcang.
"More than two months ago? Let me think about it. Chen Jingcang lowered his head and thought for a moment, thinking of the incident of killing five people in the barracks that time, at that time, he was eager to eliminate the pressure of Chen Feizhu to resist Chen Jingcang when discussing the matter, and it happened that those people hit the muzzle of the gun again, so Chen Jingcang naturally killed them mercilessly, so as to set an example for the chickens and monkeys.
Now that I think about it, Su Qing'er must have killed Chen Jingcang because of her own family among the five people killed by Chen Jingcang.
So, Chen Jingcang opened his mouth and asked, "Yes, it was indeed me who killed five people." β
"Then do you know that my eldest brother of the Su family is also among them?"
"Of course, I don't know this, but if I knew, I would have to kill him at that time. β
Su Qing'er obviously didn't know why Chen Jingcang said so ruthlessly, she pointed at Chen Jingcang and shouted, "What did my eldest brother do wrong?
"Why don't you give my eldest brother a chance? My sister-in-law is crying at home, and my grandmother is left to take care of my sister-in-law and my eldest brother, who is only four years old. How can you, as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, be so ruthless? But after drinking a few glasses of wine in the army, I heard from my eldest brother's friend that I was still forced to pass by the one named Zhao Fei. β
"Just drank a few glasses of wine, what kind of place are you really in the barracks?" Chen Jingcang really didn't bother to explain: "Since you said it, then I will keep my promise, and this matter will end here." β
Su Qing'er didn't expect Chen Jingcang to really let her go, she pointed at Chen Jingcang and said, "Don't think that I will be grateful to Dade for your grace of not killing, and don't want me to forget this hatred!"
Chen Jingcang shook his head and said to himself, "Stupid or not?"
There are many people who can't help themselves, Su Qing'er is one, her eldest brother was brutally killed by Chen Jingcang, the widow's family and the old mother suddenly lost their pillars of life, and they should have hatred in their hearts.
He didn't want to worry too much about this matter with Su Qing'er, now he was just a little curious, how could such a Qinglou woman know her identity, even if there were a few familiar friends in the barracks, with those people, they would definitely not recognize Chen Jingcang.
Chen Jingcang, who was vigilant in his heart, glanced at the woman in front of him again, and he said softly: "Miss Su, if you still have hatred for me, I don't want to cause those troubles, but I am still a reasonable person when I ask myself, and I have never felt that there is anything wrong with me about your eldest brother." I still want to reason with you today, but it's only today, if you and I can see each other again in the future, if it's still the same as today, then the girl won't even have the choice of how to die. β
Chen Jingcang took a few steps forward, stepped across the circular courtyard gate, turned his head and said again, "Girl, do it yourself." β
Walking into Steward Zhou's courtyard, Chen Jingcang coughed softly: "Come out and meet, Steward Zhou." β
The courtyard was silent for a while, and then he heard the door being kicked open, and a few people came out of nowhere, walked into Steward Zhou's room, and pulled out a middle-aged man with a somewhat bloated mustache from inside.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, spare your life!"
"Then I want to hear why you let me spare your life?"
The middle-aged bloated man was speechless for a while, just kneeling on the ground with a handful of snot and tears, kowtowing desperately, and shouting: "The villain doesn't know?"
"I don't know, then why are you so scared? Steward Zhou, you've only been here for a few months, so you don't have to pretend that you don't know what to do, I'm in a good mood today, you might as well talk about it, if you really feel reasonable, then you may just lose your head." β
"It was that slut who seduced me and stole the spy report from my room that had been passed on to Tai'an. Steward Zhou's face was ruthless, and he pointed at Su Qing'er and said loudly, "It's all because of her that she stole the spy report from my room." β
Chen Jingcang smiled: "Manager Zhou, this you made up obviously can't impress me, while I still have a little patience today, you still have a chance to think of another reason." β
The bloated Steward Zhou was so frightened that he hurriedly prostrated on the ground, and his mouth just wailed: "It really has nothing to do with me, it's all done by this slut, Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can spare the villain's life, the villain knows that he is wrong." β
"Then you don't have a chance, pack up and go back to the investigation room to confess the guilt. β
After Chen Jingcang finished speaking, he turned his back and shook his head lightly: "Miss Su, although I promised not to worry too much about you with you, I really don't want to trouble too much, so I will cut off this source." β
When the bloated Steward Zhou heard the words in Chen Jingcang's mouth, he didn't know where he got the courage to pounce on Su Qing'er, who had ended up like this, and cursed in his mouth: "You slut, you hurt me like this, I won't let you go if I am a ghost." His Royal Highness the Prince, kill me, don't send me to the investigation room, villain, please. β
Chen Jingcang's eyes were cold: "Drag it down." β
But she was frightened by the madness in Steward Zhou's eyes, Su Qing'er was stunned at this time, there was no movement in the middle of the sound, even Chen Jingcang didn't react when she shouted at her, she just stared at Steward Zhou who was dragged down, her eyes were complicated, but she didn't know what she was thinking, until Chen Jingcang stopped Steward Zhou who was dragged away, and asked, "Is there any spy report about Purple Mountain?" After speaking, he shook his head and said to himself, "I'll check it myself." β
Although he was dragged over by Liu Mang today, Chen Jingcang actually wanted to come to Accord himself, after all, it was a matter of life and death for Xiao Yu'er, although he stayed in the Yingge Yan Dance, he still never forgot Xiao Yu'er's matter.
In addition to his own body is still a little unwell in the past few days, the main reason is that he hopes to find more news about curing Xiao Yuer, and Accord's ability to search for news is still commendable, and now in addition to the Purple Mountain, no less than four or five pieces of news have been found that look some true, Chen Jingcang has not only practiced martial arts these days, but also screened the news that Accord obtained, and now Tai'an has been put on the agenda, so now I hope to come to Accord in person tomorrow to take advantage of tomorrow to go and see the news screened by Accord on my behalf, and strive not to make any mistakes or omissionsγ
And the one who controls all these matters is the new Zhou Steward in the Accord, and now it seems that he has revealed such an important matter to a Qinglou woman, such an act has touched Chen Jingcang's bottom line, and when it is really verified that Su Qing'er has really not been calculated and arranged by someone with a heart, Chen Jingcang does not want to have too much trouble with such a woman.
When he first came to Bingzhou before, he had to do something contrary to his heart in the face of such a dangerous situation, but in the face of such a Qinglou woman, he was still reluctant to move the killing intent in his heart, after all, if he really wanted to talk about cause and effect, the five people that Chen Jingcang killed before were the biggest cause, and the result was naturally the killing intent in Su Qing'er's heart.
Although sparing Su Qing'er's life is an insignificant trivial matter, it is a great blessing for some people.
The family of the orphan and widow may be the main reason why Su Qing'er has hatred and murderous intent in her heart, but she didn't do it in the end.
Since the cause has been planted, then use the gentlest way to understand this effect, or maybe this effect is a certain cause, then I will not pursue it too much, Chen Jingcang looked at Su Qing'er who was still stunned, and shouted at her again: "Miss Su, if you still can't figure it out, then I really have no choice." β
Su Qing'er came back to her senses at this time, her eyes were complicated, she opened her mouth and did not speak.
Chen Jingcang didn't want to say anything more, turned around and entered Steward Zhou's room, Su Qing'er was stunned for a long time, and then followed into the room together.
Since Chen Jingcang planted such a cause, he must also bear the consequences of this cause, not to mention what this matter will develop into later, now it seems that a solution is always needed, although such an action cannot eliminate the accidents that may occur in the future.
However, from Chen Jingcang's point of view, Su Qing'er's threat to him is negligible, but no matter what, there are always some potential dangers, just because the woman in front of her can actually pry open the mouth of a steward of Accord, such a scheming is also worthy of Chen Jingcang's necessary attention to her.
