Chapter 166: Treasure (2)
Duan Jianghuo was locked up in the cellar of the nunnery, and Yuqian would see him the next day and bring him back to Yudu. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Naturally, he can't cure his crime now, he is the last bloodline of the Xu family, and he may be the only person in the world who knows the whereabouts of Gong Liangyu. But will Duan Jianghuo say it?
They rushed to the cellar while Yude was arranging the funeral of Anshu in the nunnery. The cellar was still stuffy, and if it weren't for the door open, I would have felt tightness in my chest and shortness of breath. But Duan Jianghuo still sat in place with a calm expression, closing his eyes and not knowing whether he was asleep or thinking about something.
"Duan Jianghuo, let's talk!"
Duan Jianghuo opened his eyes, originally thought that the person who came to interrogate would definitely be Yuqian, but he didn't expect it to be her.
"Miss Yan?"
"Don't be surprised, it wasn't His Highness who asked me to come, I just came to confirm something. ā
Duan Jianghuo's eyes were confused, and he still replied vigilantly, "Then listen to what Miss Yan wants to ask, right?"
"Is Your Highness's inference yesterday correct, is it true that you killed Miss Anko?"
Duan Jianghuo's eyes hesitated for a moment, but finally laughed and said, "Hey, it's just a stupid woman, you guys are so serious!"
"Silly woman?" Yan Song's body slowly approached, those eyes kept staring at the eyes he wanted to dodge, "Is it for the silly woman who would rather give up resisting?"
Duan Jianghuo's eyes really changed, Yan Song guessed correctly, An Ji was not just a cold corpse for him. But why can he be ruthless to the woman he loves.
"Yes, silly woman! what a silly woman...... I've never seen ...... That stupid woman didn't even resist, heh, you know what, I strangled her to death so easily......" he said, tears unconsciously welling up from his eyes, he didn't say a word of regret, but the tears still couldn't stop flowing down, accompanied by a wry smile.
"On the day of An's death, although the lights on the shore were dim, your eyes were red all the time. Prove how sad you felt after you killed Anko. She may not be a beautiful woman or a noble person, but she is very good to you. Even when you killed her, she recognized you and was willing to be killed by you. As long as she can fulfill your dream, she would rather not have her own life......"
"No need to go on, Miss Yan. Duan Jianghuo finally stood up from the ground, "That's what I owe her, and I will pay it back one day." But I don't regret it, for the sake of the Xu family, for the sake of everyone who died in the Xu family, I can only choose to kill all those who know the truth. ā
"But did you ever think that Anjun would never betray you?!
"I have no way out!" Duan Jianghuo's eyes suddenly burned, and he immediately darkened, "I can't do things that I am not sure of! Because, once I fail, it will ruin my entire Xu family." ā
"Lost?Duan Jianghuo, you are confused! Why didn't you cost An Ji's life and yourself?"
His body sat down slowly, as if he didn't have the strength to stand and argue with her anymore, he cut off An Ji's life, in order to protect the Xu family and protect the secrets of the Xu family. But now, isn't he also sitting in this prison and burying himself?
He drooped his head, his arms on his laps without strength, "Miss Yan, why, why are you all looking for Gong Liangyu?"
"It was the Holy Lord who learned that this was the elixir left by Xu Fu, and if it was taken by other countries in this world, it would definitely endanger the Jade Capital. So I just wanted to keep it safe. ā
He still lowered his head, his head trembled slightly, followed by a few chuckles one after another, "The saint of the jade capital, heh, do you really think he wants to take good care of the palace scale jade?"
Yan Song didn't understand what he meant, "Otherwise?"
"Anyone who sees the elixir of life will be red-eyed, let alone the saint of this jade capital. He killed all the people of my Xu family in order to find the so-called treasure to continue his life. ā
"It is normal to be born, old, sick and die, but how can the Holy One ......?"
"How is it impossible? Why do you think the saint of the Jade Capital must find the palace scale jade!" he suddenly raised his head, his eyes red as if he was about to burst, "Wang, the most ruthless people in this world, their ambitions are beyond your imagination. They want to dominate, they want to dominate this land for thousands of years, because they are kings!"
Although Duan Jianghuo's words sounded terrifying, if the emperors in the history books hadn't been greedy for this position, how could they have executed so many people to maintain their power. Yan Song didn't understand these at first, and he didn't understand the meaning of the so-called emperor's clothes and mounds, but now Duan Jianghuo's words are like an initiation, and he understands a little bit.
"Duan Jianghuo, although this elixir may be a talisman, I still want to find it. ā
Duan Jianghuo raised his head and looked at her suspiciously, "You also want immortality?"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Of course, no." Ten years ago, this palace scale jade became my grandfather's talisman, ruining his reputation for the rest of his life. I want to correct his name and overturn his case back then!"
Duan Jianghuo didn't expect Yan Song to have such thoughts, he remembered that many years ago, their descendants of the Xu family went to the palace to steal the palace scale jade, but he didn't expect to affect others.
"Does it make sense? The case from ten years ago?" If it were put on the past, Yan Song would never pay attention to any thing about the Yan family, but she felt that over the years, she was wrong, she hated the wrong person, it was not her mother's fault, nor the Yan family who did nothing, but Luo Liang, the cruel father, was the initiator.
"It makes sense, because my surname is Yan, and I am a descendant of the Yan family, as if you are a descendant of the Xu family, we must maintain our own family, which is decided by God when we were born, and we cannot escape it. ā
Duan Jianghuo was stunned, and after his eyes came back to his senses, he shook his head and sneered, "You're not afraid of ending up like me?"
"In the past, I was too cowardly, always complaining and trying to escape. "But not anymore, because I've found my place, I've found what I'm supposed to do." Even though I may still die in the end, I won't regret it. ā
Yan Song only wants to do two things now, the first is to overturn the case for his grandfather, and the second is to seek justice for the twenty-six children who died that year. Until these two things are done, she must live, no matter what.
"Miss Yan......" Duan Jianghuo's voice was suddenly weak, and when she looked at herself, the corners of his mouth were already oozing blood.
"What are you doing! Someone!" Yan Song shouted towards the door, and just as he shouted, Yu Qian rushed in, and when he saw Duan Jianghuo's appearance, he seemed to understand something.
"Your Highness, hurry up and save people! Hurry up and find a doctor!"
Yan Song looked at the door in a panic, and then looked at Duan Jianghuo, but Yu Qian just shook his head, afraid of her shoulder, "Yan Song, listen to what he said for the last paragraph!"
"What are you talking about? He's just taken poison, and it's too late to save him!"
Yu Qian looked at Duan Jianghuo and shook his head with some disappointment, "It's too late, he should be taking chronic medicine, and it will take three days to attack." Probably on the night of An's death, he had already taken it. ā
Yu Qian knew some medical skills, and when he was captured in the woods that day, he had already noticed that something was wrong with his pulse and complexion. It's just that Duan Jianghuo will take the poison on the day An Ji died, for what, for the so-called repayment of debts, or he doesn't want the Xu family's secrets to be exposed to the world at all.
But none of this matters anymore.
