Hejing was completely panicked.

Yongyan, who was originally extremely rational, couldn't help but feel a wave of worry in his heart in the face of the increasingly bad situation.

The two sisters and brothers glanced at each other, and then they also left Yuxiu Palace and went to the imperial garden.

In the Imperial Garden, which is usually quiet since sunset, the scenery around is reflected in light and dark by the palace lights, and the shouts of the palace maids and eunuchs looking for people come and go, which seems to make the gloomy night panic for a while.

The guards who patrolled here saw this battle, and after learning about it from Yongyan's mouth, they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately helped to find someone together.

The night breeze had not yet stopped, and a cold drizzle was soaking all around.

He Jing, who had no direction under her feet, was supported by the palace maid holding an umbrella, but she didn't dare to delay for a moment when she looked around.

At this time, a little eunuch came quickly and walked in front of He Jing.

Before He Jing could open his mouth to ask a question, he saw him pounce on the cobblestone path mixed with rain and mud under his feet, and his mouth was trembling: "Princess, the guards of the night patrol are here...... In the lotus pond in the east of the garden, I found nine grids...... The fifteenth master has already rushed at this time—"

"Is there anything wrong with Jiuge'er!" He Jing interrupted his unfinished words with a pale face.

The little eunuch swallowed, "Slaves, slaves don't know ......"

He Jing shook off the support of the palace maid and rushed into the gradually heavy rain almost without manners.

The lotus pond in the east of the garden, located in the middle of nowhere, people did not often set foot in the past, and because of the death of the concubine a few years ago, a personal grandmother in the palace committed suicide and drowned in this pond, and then there was a haunted saying, one came and went, more and more no one approached here, and the palace people gradually neglected to take care of it.

Overgrown with weeds, the branches of trees that have not been pruned for a long time are coiled across the night, like monsters with teeth and claws. The withered lotus in the pond showed no sign of anything new.

There is a frightening lifelessness in the four factions.

He Jing saw He Ke who was soaked and lying motionless in Yongyan's arms by the pond.

After she was expressionless for a moment, she hurriedly tore off the maple-red satin brocade she was wearing on her body, walked forward quickly, squatted down and hurriedly wrapped the brocade around He Ke.

The bright red color lined He Ke's already pale little face with more and more anger.

In front of Hejing's trance, it was still a few hours ago, she held her hand and laughed nonsense, pouting and coquettish.

"Quick, hurry up and ask the imperial doctor to show her......" He Jing looked at Yongyan who was hugging He Ke tightly with a blank look, and said in an anxious and distracted tone.

Yongyan didn't seem to hear what she was saying.

I don't know when the tears have spread over her cheeks, and Hejing stretched out her stiff fingers to shake Heke, but before she could reach her hand, the whole person suddenly fell backwards like a kite with a broken string, and was instantly withdrawn from consciousness.

She just thought she was having a terrible nightmare.

When I opened my eyes, I found that I had not really been able to wake up from my dream.

The news that Princess He Ke drowned in the Dongtang of the Imperial Garden due to playfulness caused a shock in the palace that night.

Early the next morning, under the emperor's anger, he sent down a group of grandmothers and palace maids led by Aunt Ah Yu for the crime of taking care of the unfavorable, and even the eunuchs and patrol guards who were on duty in the imperial garden that night were also implicated-

When He Jing woke up from a coma, most of the familiar people beside him had been replaced.

She rushed into the side hall where the corpse was housed like a madman, and took off the spirit cloth despite the obstruction of the palace people, and her eyes fell on her sister's face, and in an instant hot tears burst out, falling on the still immature but already cold body.

He Jing kept shaking his head, and his trembling hands seemed to be uncontrollable, constantly checking something in He Ke's limbs and even his whole body.

Such an act of disturbing the deceased, the palace people in the palace couldn't stop her, so they had to go to report the matter in a panic.

And was about to go out of this door, but was stopped by Yongyan who rushed over.

"Don't alarm Huang Ama, I will persuade the seventh princess to return. ”

The little eunuch could only respond, hanging his head to one side.

Yongyan stepped into the hall.

"Seventh sister. This is not an appropriate move. He pressed Hejing's arm.

Hearing the voice of his loved one, He Jing suddenly raised his head, and when he saw that it was Yongyan, his originally sharp eyes suddenly became soft and sad, but they were full of tears of questioning: "You know, Jiuge'er has always been timid, and he never dared to set foot in such a no-man's place, especially at night...... They said that she had run away after the cat, how could I believe this? Besides, since she fell into the water at the Xiangshan Fenghui, she has become more and more afraid of water, and she has to avoid even seeing a wellhead far away on weekdays.

"Seventh Sister!" Yongyan interrupted her in a heavy voice, her bloodshot eyes full of stops.

There are so many people here that she is not allowed to say anything that is not well thought out.

He Jing could only keep shaking his head with tears as he watched Yongyan slowly cover the spiritual cloth printed with scriptures for Heke.

Yongyan's red eyes were full of chill a little bit.

He ordered someone to secretly find out who had been to the Imperial Garden in the hours before and after He Ke's accident.

At that time, it was getting late, and there were not many people in and out of here, and there were even fewer people who stayed here - after many analyses and verifications, there were only two people worth paying attention to.

Zhao Xi, the eunuch in charge of Jingren Palace, who went to the Internal Affairs Office on an errand last night, and the eleventh elder brother who went to the palace to ask for peace despite being injured.

Several eunuchs on duty had seen the two walking in the garden together.

These days, in order not to provoke the holy eye, Yongying has never set foot in Jingren Palace again, and the matter of Heshen is about to be settled recently, and it is even more critical to the moment, the contact between Jingren Palace and the eleventh elder brother, who has just had a chance to breathe, is becoming more and more blatant, and it is not difficult to think about taking the opportunity to spread the word on the grounds of Zhao Xi's affairs.

It's just that unfortunately, He Ke also entered the imperial garden at that time.

She left Aunt Ayu behind and chased the cat all the way alone, but she didn't know what she had experienced.

He has no evidence for the time being, everything is just speculation, but just speculation, he can't contain the coldness in his heart.

He also knew that no matter what the truth was, his ninth sister would never come back.

But what about the living?

Since then, all he has is a precarious and manipulative life, and the seventh sister who is about to marry far away and is afraid that he will never see each other again in this life - and then there is Eniang and the ninth sister who have disappeared from the world without explanation, and the truth that may never be revealed in front of people again!

He shouldn't have lived like this, and they shouldn't have died like that......

And the seventh sister, she likes calligraphy, likes to paint flowers and birds, and loves all the beautiful dresses and jewelry that her daughters love, she should recruit a wishful horse as her mother wished before her death, and spend the rest of her life happily and smoothly under the protection of her family.

And by no means with a deep heart and unwillingness to marry into that bitter cold place.

In this way, even if he is lucky enough to survive half of his life and achieve a little success, what can he change in the end?

Yongyan took a deep look at the petite corpse covered by the spirit cloth, and the silhouette of the girl was vaguely visible.

If he had made up his mind earlier and redoubled his vigilance, maybe the ninth sister would not have had this catastrophe......

Many variables are just a thought difference, but there is no chance to start again.

Therefore, unlike the previous time of watching the fire from across the shore and waiting for the opportunity, he had no choice at this time - counterattacking was already something he had to do......

He Xu is still young, he still has little reading, Xu still doesn't know the way to cultivate obscurity, lie down and taste courage, Xu still doesn't know that life is more precious, but he knows very well what is most important to him at this time!

It is to keep everything you have, and it is to no longer let new regrets appear in front of you and have no power to return to the sky!

Even if it is broken bones, it is worthy of it.

At this time, he understood what kind of state of mind Feng Jiwen, who had been lonely and brave since Feng Yinglian was imprisoned, and wanted to move forward despite all dangers.

Before that, he was still like most people, thinking that she was too stubborn, didn't know how to weigh the overall situation, didn't know how to protect herself, and didn't distinguish between the pros and cons.

It turns out that this is not because you don't know how to calculate, but because you know what is the most worthy of calculation.

This should be the cleanest and clearest appearance of the human heart in addition to the layers of glitz and turbidity.

As a human being, you have to try to do it at least once to have no regrets!

He thought that He Shen should have this understanding as soon as he changed his previous calculations and accompanied her to make a desperate bet.
