Chapter 20: The Final Farewell

The next day, a heavy snowstorm was like an invisible floodgate, locking everyone in the house, Ning Xiang braved the wind and snow to go to the inner prison to get some silver charcoal back, and when he came back, Mo Chenghuan had already woken up, and Jin Su was waiting for breakfast.

"Ning Xiang, you're back, come here, you all come here," Mo Chenghuan said without raising his head while drinking porridge.

Ning Xiang was shocked, and immediately thought of Mo Chenghuan's poisoning.

"What happened to the last time I asked you to investigate?" asked Mo Chenghuan straight to the point.

"Also...... There are no clues yet. Ning Xiang buried her head, she had no confidence in her heart, and she didn't dare to look directly at Mo Chenghuan's censoring gaze.

"You don't have to, I don't expect you to find out anything, but do you know why I asked Lou Yuyu to come over yesterday?" Mo Chenghuan glanced at the little girls who were standing straight in front of the table together.

"The slave doesn't know. The three little girls said in unison.

"Because our only clue is in him, she can see that I was poisoned, and she will definitely be able to find out where I got the poison, only by knowing how I was poisoned, can we find the person who has bad intentions towards me," Mo Chenghuan paused, glanced at the three little girls again, wanted to see if there were any flaws to be found, and continued: "He told me that this poison was mixed with something similar to medicinal food for me to take, you tell me, before I was sick, in your impression, did you have these things?"

"Ginseng chicken soup!" Jin Su and Ning Xiang said in unison as if they had just woken up from a dream.

"Who passed it on?" Mo Chenghuan's first thought was Ling Xue, and she was the only one around her who was the most suspicious.

"It's a slave," Ling Xue replied truthfully.

"Ling Xue, when you came back, did you encounter anything unusual?" Mo Chenghuan still didn't want to believe that Ling Xue would poison her, anyway, during this time, she had never treated Ling Xue badly, she shouldn't be treated like this.

"Nope. Ling Xue said categorically.

"Aren't you afraid that I will doubt you?" Ling Xue's eyes were mixed with very complicated emotions, and Mo Chenghuan was enough to deduce that Ling Xue did not tell the truth.

"Master, there is no evidence that this pheasant soup poisoned you. Ling Xue faced Mo Chenghuan's question, and retorted without humility or arrogance.

"I have reason to suspect that this poison is from you," Mo Chenghuan was a little stunned, in fact, as long as Ling Xue explained truthfully, she didn't do anything to Ling Xue, but her repeated rebuttals made Mo Chenghuan angry.

"Then the master will dispose of the slave and maid," Ling Xue knelt in front of Mo Chenghuan without changing her face, as if she was confessing her guilt, and as if she was begging for something.

"Ling Xue!" Jin Su and Ling Xue get along best, naturally she doesn't want to just watch Ling Xue bear this big sin, she can also see that Ling Xue has a secret secret, maybe let Ling Xue tell the truth, after all, this is good for everyone.

"Sister Jinsu, thank you for taking care of you during this time, I can't help but show you kindness, I hope we will still be friends in the next life," Ling Xue was determined to die, unwilling to listen to advice again.

"Ling Xue I know you are loyal, but why are you so stupid? You are so stupid and loyal that you have already confessed for you, I thought it would take a few days to try you, but I didn't expect you to leak the stuffing so quickly. Ling Xue's attitude is already so obvious, so it is not difficult to guess what she is desperately trying to hide.

Ling Xue was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Mo Chenghuan uncertainly.

"There is only one person in this world who can make you so loyal, and that is Rong Guifei, since I already know that it was her hands and feet, then your sacrifice is bloodshed in vain," Mo Chenghuan actually didn't believe that Qiu Shengxi would attack her, this Ling Xue was only afraid that she was deceived by Sima Yi with Qiu Shengxi as a threat.

"You don't have solid evidence, you can't do anything to Niangniang, I won't sacrifice in vain," Ling Xue firmly believes that her death will definitely bring a ray of life to Qiu Shengxi.

"Since I already know that she wants to harm me, then I don't need any evidence, I don't need to fight back, there will be more opportunities in the future, I have a way to make her to the top, and naturally there is a way to ruin her!" Mo Chenghuan just wanted to scare Ling Xue and let her tell the truth, so as to speculate which beauty was under Sima Yi, and he regarded her as a thorn in his side so quickly.

"You can't do this!" Ling Xue got up and was about to rush towards Mo Chenghuan, but fortunately, Ning Xiang was sensitive and held Ling Xue down.

"Let her come up!" Ling Xue's counterattack completely angered Mo Chenghuan.

As soon as Ning Xiang's hand was released, Ling Xue pounced in front of Mo Chenghuan by inertia, and Mo Chenghuan pushed with his backhand, causing Ling Xue to hit the door frame.

"Do you think you can save Qiu Shengxi?! I told you, Qiu Shengxi will definitely die! Otherwise, she won't send you to me! No one can save her life, unless the Sima clan suddenly disappears from the world tomorrow, what can I change, and Sima Yi's death can't change her fate! It's not that I really can't save her, if she is willing to survive, I have a hundred ways to let her live, but if she survives, then her parents, brothers, and clansmen will die without a place to be buried, you can ignore it, but Qiu Shengxi can't do it! "Mo Chenghuan is willing to help everyone who has a rough fate and has a good nature, but not everyone is willing to be rescued.

Ling Xue was dripping blood from her forehead, and the people in the room were leaning against the door frame and weeping silently.

"Ling Xue, do you know, today you think you are saving Qiu Shengxi, but in fact, you are pushing her into the abyss step by step......" Mo Chenghuan said so much, just to let Ling Xue wake up from the dream of saving Qiu Shengxi, only in this way can Ling Xue distinguish between right and wrong.

"It's Heyu, she said, as long as I poison you to death, the concubine Niangniang promised to let the master live, she also said that in case the matter is revealed, as long as I take everything on myself, the concubine Niangniang can also help the master Rong fight for a light hairfall, the slave and the maid don't believe you, the slave and the maid don't believe you, the slave and the maid just feel that even if there are some possibilities, help the Rong master fight to keep a life, the Rong master treats me well, and the entrusting person saves the life of the seriously ill old lady, the slave and the maid just want to repay her, the slave and the slave can't stand you, you are a good person, the slave and the maid will give you a cow and a horse in the next life, please Mo Master You are a lot, don't embarrass the Rong master anymore......" Before the words were finished, Ling Xue couldn't cry anymore.

Jin Su stepped forward to stop Ling Xue's bleeding, wiped her tears, and felt indescribable distress in her eyes.

"Ning Xiang, you go and investigate who Heyu has been in contact with recently, Concubine Jing's mind can't think of a good way to use Ling Xue," Mo Chenghuan heard Ling Xue's words, and his mind quickly thought of going down the vine.

"Okay," Ning Xiang didn't dare to delay for a second, and took her cloak and rushed into the thunder.

Ling Xue raised her head and glanced at Mo Chenghuan with tears in her eyes, and stopped crying.

"Ling Xue, I am friends with Shengxi, I promised her many things, I will do it, including taking good care of you, I don't need you to repay me anything, you just need to remember that she wants you to live well, don't do those senseless stupid things, blame Sima Yi if you want to blame, blame the Sima family, as long as they don't perish, there will be more innocent people like her who die," Mo Chenghuan said faintly to Ling Xue, who was crying bitterly.

At the second moment, Ning Xiang hurriedly pushed open the door and rushed to the edge of the stove tremblingly.

"Is there any news?" Mo Chenghuan sat on the chaise longue and looked at the book, and when he saw Ning Xiang coming back, he hurriedly put down the book in his hand and asked anxiously.

"I asked out, and the inner attendant said that he saw that He Yu and Jingjing around Chu Luoluo had a close relationship," Ning Xiang roasted the fire, and did not dare to quickly tell the information he had sought.

"Chu Luoluo, it's like something she can do," Mo Chenghuan didn't misunderstand this Chu Luoluo, he thought she was not simple at the beginning, but he didn't expect the two of them to think of going together.

"Then should we fight back?" At this time, even Jin Su could see that the form was not suitable for fighting back.

"Let's go to Mu Xue Hall first and come back and then make plans, by the way, let's call Ling Xue, let their master and servant see each other for the last time," Chu Luoluo had already noticed her, and it would be difficult for her to have time to take care of Qiu Shengxi in the future, afraid that this would be the last time they would see each other.

Mu Xue Temple

Since Chu Luoluo took away the favor of the saint, Mu Xue Hall has become a lot colder, and those who came to curry favor have all run to Chixia Palace. In the huge hall, except for some boring palace eunuchs, there is no outsider, not to mention the former Chixia Palace, even her Qi Yuxuan is afraid that it will be a little more lively than this Mu Xue Palace.

This Mu Xue Hall is like a huge cage, imprisoning these people here.

"Trouble spread, Qi Yuxuan Mo Chenghuan asked to see. Mo Chenghuan got out of the sedan chair and personally stopped a palace lady.

"You just go in by yourself, you don't have to pass it on. Gong E glanced at Mo Chenghuan with annoyance, and pointed to the main hall and said weakly.

"Okay," Mo Chenghuan didn't want to cause trouble, so he responded with a smile and walked towards the main hall with Ning Xiang and the three of them.

"Why do these minions know so much about etiquette, who is in charge of things now, let them in at will like this, what if the plague has ill intentions and hurts the mother!"

"I'm afraid that they are all people who have nowhere to go, and they are left to mess around, a master who has fallen out of favor, how much care can you expect to be a slave underneath, there are not many people like you in the palace, so she will ask me to take care of you," is now the best situation that Mo Chenghuan expected.

This palace is a cage, a tomb, where this beloved man is imprisoned, and this fallen man is buried.

"Rong Gui Concubine, Rong Gui Concubine?" Mo Chenghuan entered the main hall and did not see Qiu Shengxi, so he immediately shouted twice.

"I'm in the inner room," Qiu Shengxi's complaining voice floated from the inner room.

Mo Chenghuan and the four of them walked into the inner room, only to see Qiu Shengxi wearing a simple and unpretentious cardigan skirt, his face was a little pale, but his spirit seemed to be good.

"Why isn't there anyone in the room waiting for you?" Ling Xue's face was ugly, and she was very dissatisfied with Qiu Shengxi's situation at this time.

"A concubine who has lost the emperor's favor can be considered good like this, how can you have time to come and see me?" Qiu Shengxi no longer needs to be hypocritical, although his face is a little pale, but he is relieved with a smile, just like a prisoner who has been imprisoned for a long time, he finally escaped, and every move is full of the taste of freedom.

Mo Chenghuan frowned without a trace, to be honest, the last thing she wanted to see was Qiu Shengxi's appearance, because it meant that she was not far from death.

"You guys go out first, Ling Xue stays, you watch outside, don't let anyone in. Mo Chenghuan commanded.

"It doesn't have to be like this now, who cares about a dying person," Qiu Shengxi has long seen her fate, now her every day is meaningless, and since the day her child left her, she has begun to look forward to the end of her fate soon.

"Go ahead," Mo Chenghuan also knew what Qiu Shengxi said, but she was still used to being cautious.

"Yes," Ning Xiang and Jin Su didn't ask the reason, and went out after receiving the order.

"You two talk," Mo Chenghuan could understand the deep relationship between the master and servant between them, and she had enough patience not to disturb them.

"Master!" Ling Xue couldn't control her emotions anymore, knelt in front of Qiu Shengxi, and cried bitterly.

"Oh, what's the matter with your forehead?" Qiu Shengxi found the wound on Ling Xue's forehead.

Ling Xue was about to speak, but was robbed by Mo Chenghuan: "It's okay, she accidentally fell and fell on the pillar." ”

Qiu Shengxi glanced at Ling Xue and then at Mo Chenghuan, knowing that it was not as Mo Chenghuan said, but she was willing to ignore these insignificant details.

"I have been doing well in Qi Yuxuan during this time, have you caused trouble for Master Mo?" Qiu Shengxi, who is not much older than Ling Xue, is like a kind mother, holding her beloved daughter, warm and kind.

"I'm sorry master, the slave and maid have caused a lot of trouble for Master Mo," Ling Xue said to Qiu Shengxi with a handful of snot and tears.

"What do you say?" Qiu Shengxi jumped his eyelids, thinking to himself that Ling Xuechuang was quite a big disaster, and this was all coming to the door.

Ling Xue sobbed and looked back at Mo Chenghuan, turned her head and Qiu Shengxi kowtowed a few times: "The master blames the slave and maid, the slave and maid almost committed a catastrophe......

"Actually, it's nothing, don't worry too much," Mo Chenghuan had to step forward to perfunctory this matter for Ling Xue in order not to let Ling Xue exaggerate this matter.

Unexpectedly, Mo Chenghuan's motive for this move was seen through by Qiu Shengxi, who realized the seriousness of the situation, and immediately put on a straight face and said angrily: "What good things have you done!"

Qiu Shengxi's anger startled Mo Chenghuan, but she still quickly came back to her senses: "There is no need for this, let's skip it, I just want to ask ......"

Ling Xue has always dared to act, in her cognition, if she did something wrong, she should be punished accordingly, and Mo Chenghuan's opening up to her made her even more uneasy.

"I almost poisoned Master Mo to death," Ling Xue snatched Mo Chenghuan's unfinished words and confessed everything frankly.

When Qiu Shengxi heard this, the anger immediately rushed to her head, and she raised her hand and gave Ling Xue a slap, Mo Chenghuan wanted to stop it, but she was about to make a move, Ling Xue had already slapped Qiu Shengxi alive, and she could only stop Qiu Shengxi from waving her palm for the second time.

"Don't be angry, don't be annoyed, she is just the protector of the heart, and she listened to their slander," Mo Chenghuan couldn't bear to let Qiu Shengxi blame Ling Xue, and persuaded him.

I don't need you to protect me, you are a powerless minion, what capital do you have to protect me? Cheng Huan has confirmed my decision many times, if you can change Cheng Huan can arrange it at any time, where do you need a slave to meddle in things?!" Qiu Shengxi was overwhelmed by anger, even if Mo Chenghuan stopped him, Qiu Shengxi still kicked Ling Xue again.

"The slave knows the mistake, the master is not angry, your body is just right, you can't be angry with me anymore. Ling Xue cried and crawled in front of Qiu Shengxi again and begged.

"It's all over, dissipate your anger, you too, your master is weak, I will hide it for you, why do you deliberately say it to be angry with your master!" Mo Chenghuan has always liked Ling Xue's uprightness at first, but now he hates this stupid girl.

"Chenghuan, don't speak for her, I have to teach her a good lesson today, cough cough ......" Qiu Shengxi was in a hurry, and for a while he caused a series of coughs in his body.

"Come on, we're making too much noise here, it's not good for people with a heart to listen to it!" Mo Chenghuan couldn't persuade him to say anything, so he had to come up with a killer idea.

Qiu Shengxi gasped for a while, perhaps because he heard what Mo Chenghuan said, and then slowly said slowly: "Chenghuan is my only friend in this world, she has always treated me well, you don't know, you can also know a lot in Qi Yuxuan these days, how can you do it to such a good person!"

"Master, the slave knows that she is wrong...... Ling Xue didn't expect to make Qiu Shengxi angry like this, and she was busy crying and admitting her mistake.

"I don't have a big life, Ling Xue, this little girl can't take my life, today, I'm not here to ask for a crime, I want to come over to discuss something with you. Mo Chenghuan felt that it was not a way to entangle in this matter, so he had to move out of the topic and urgently change the topic.

"What's the matter?" Qiu Shengxi is not a person who doesn't know the importance of things, everything should be done first.

"Actually, it was for Ling Xue to be deceived by Sima Yi, but I didn't come to hold her responsible, but I wanted to tell you that I had a hunch that this matter was not for me," This matter came too suddenly, at first Mo Chenghuan thought that Chu Luoluo simply looked at her unpleasantly, but the more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, and there was always a voice shouting in her heart, this matter was not just coming at her.

"Then do you think it's coming at me?" Qiu Shengxi smiled contemptuously, she didn't believe it, but now, those rights and wrongs have become insignificant.

"I just want you to be mentally prepared and come to see you by the way," This is not all of Mo Chenghuan's thoughts, it's just that she has some dirty thoughts, and she can't explain to Qiu Shengxi at this time, she doesn't want any interests between her and Qiu Shengxi, especially at this time.

"I will give you back a favor, it should reflect my last value, and it can be regarded as my last gift to you," Qiu Shengxi found that people are dying, and many things will become clear, and now no matter what Mo Chenghuan doesn't want to say in his heart, she can see through it one by one.

"What do you mean!" Mo Chenghuan knew that his mind was seen through by Qiu Shengxi, and he began to get nervous.

"Do what you want, don't worry about me, if I were you today, I would do the same thing," Qiu Shengxi was also afraid that Mo Chenghuan would back down, she knew that Mo Chenghuan valued affection and did not want to use her at such a time.

"I won't do this kind of thing, you are my friend, the first friend in the palace, I have many opportunities, I Mo Chenghuan disdains to use friends as stepping stones!" Mo Chenghuan had this thought, but she wouldn't do it.

"I'm very happy to die in your hands, and Sima Yi has a lot of ways to let me die, but for me, I will feel much more at ease if you do it," Qiu Shengxi smiled flawlessly when he talked about his death.

"You ......" Mo Chenghuan couldn't bear to refuse in the face of Qiu Shengxi's request.

"You're going to promise me, aren't you?" Qiu Shengxi's gentle eyes finally revealed emotions other than gentleness, and a glimmer of essence flashed, and she knew that she was about to succeed.

"I don't seem to have the ability to refuse you," Mo Chenghuan smiled bitterly.

"Ling Xue, don't hate Cheng Huan, my fate has been ready since I entered the palace, no one is powerless to change it, we can't fight Sima Yi now, my hope is in Cheng Huan, I believe that if one day Sima Yi will be pulled down, it must be Cheng Huan," Qiu Shengxi's eyes were full of hope, it was a deep expectation.

"What are you doing with all that nonsense? You're dead. Mo Chenghuan couldn't bear the pressure entrusted by Qiu Shengxi, and the expectation of resigning his fate was much more stressful than his usual wishes.

"I believe you are the last one to live," Qiu Shengxi's smiling eyes were crooked like the first quarter moon on the edge of the sky, and an invisible force gently filled Mo Chenghuan's chest.

"For you, I will also live to the end, you are waiting at the bridge to see the result, when the time comes, my hands will be covered with blood, you can't dislike me," Mo Chenghuan was somewhat helpless.

"Don't worry, I don't dare to dislike you. Qiu Shengxi smiled like a flower.

Ling Xue looked at Qiu Shengxi, she finally understood the meaning of Mo Chenghuan to Qiu Shengxi, she had never seen Qiu Shengxi show to anyone, such a natural and pure smile, Mo Chenghuan was a friend to Qiu Shengxi, but it was not an ordinary friend who could talk in her understanding, but a meaningful friend of life and death who could be entrusted with life and death.

Heavy snow quietly fell outside the hall, and the heavy snow was a farewell to the hearty autumn and the last farewell to Qiu Shengxi.
