Chapter 407: Compassion
"No, no, no-"
Suiyue trembled and retreated, and in a panic, he slammed into the high table behind him, obviously suffering pain in his back, but he still went backwards, until he held on to the armrest of the chair, and barely stood up.
Memories are like a dense net, gradually wrapping Suiyue, and those scattered memories and time seem to fly back at this moment, gradually integrating into her mind, so that she can't escape and deliberately forget.
But just when these memories were rippling little by little, her heart was also throbbing unexpectedly, as if suffocating, making her sit down on the chair in pain, clutching the placket of her chest with almost all her strength, like a fish stranded on the seashore, desperately gasping, embarrassed and pathetic.
Time seems to have gone back to the past, at that time she was also a girl with a rippling heart, and Sun Qi is still her fellow villager, the man who has become mature from the boy next door, and has become a man who will bow her head in shame at a glance. For her, he was willing to give up his career in the imperial examination and was admitted to the Tai Hospital, because of his talent, but at the age of twenty, he was already the top junior in the Tai Hospital.
Because of her relationship, Cheng Guifei also used Sun Qi very much, and it was precisely because of Cheng Guifei's recommendation that Sun Qi also got into the eyes of the emperor and became a pivotal person in the hospital at that time.
Until twelve years ago, when she was already twenty years old, she was old enough to leave the palace, and Sun Qi was also twenty-seven, but in order to wait for her, she didn't even have a concubine room.
Now she still remembers the scene when Sun Qi knelt in front of the emperor and Concubine Cheng and asked for marriage, everything was as beautiful as a dream.
The emperor readily agreed, that is, although Cheng Guifei was reluctant, she also intended to elevate her status, not only prepared a dowry for her, but also personally married her, so that she could marry Sun Qi as his wife.
Just when she was shy about preparing the embroidery for marriage, Sun Qi encountered a falling stone on the way to pick up the second elder of the Sun family into Beijing, and in a blink of an eye, the festive red thing turned into a desolate white thing.
She has not yet become a bride, but she has first become an ominous person who killed her fiancé's family.
It was also from that moment that her heart died, with the death of the man who would gently call her by her nickname.
She thought that as long as she buried all this in her heart and forced herself not to think about it and not to remember, it would be calm, but she never thought that as long as she heard that person's name, all this would be easily evoked, with a tearing pain.
"Back then, my father once said that the people in the palace couldn't climb high, but my brother refused to marry a person for you, until the holy will gave the marriage, and the parents were helpless to let go, and they were relieved to come to the capital to see my brother's wedding, but I didn't think that the people in your palace, we ordinary people really can't climb, for you alone, it is enough to reach the life of our family. ”
Looking at Sui Yue's pale and sluggish face, as well as the slightly trembling lips, I saw the woman step by step, her lips slightly opened, as if she was telling someone else's story, and said slowly.
"Do you know how scared you are when those falling rocks fall?"
Seeing Suiyue's body trembling, the woman suddenly chuckled, weird and terrifying, only to see her leaning forward and slowly speaking: "At that moment, it was as if the sky had fallen, and I could only hear the struggles and cries for help of my father, mother, and brother, as well as the sound of those stones collapsing and smashing bones, do you know what it feels like for my father and mother to lie next to me, without a trace of breath, and my body is gradually cold, and more and more blood surrounds me?" Even so, my brother and I have a big life, maybe God has mercy on us, and we have a life left, but I didn't expect that your master, your concubine Cheng Guifei, who swore to follow to the death, was killed to such a point, and he was afraid of leaving a little life with us, and he also sent someone to check in person to see if our family was dead. ”
Sui Yue only felt a bang in her brain when she heard the sound, and when she still looked at the person in front of her in disbelief, she saw the woman in front of her almost hideously in front of her, a pair of hands almost clutched her hands, and her nails were deeply embedded in the flesh of her wrists, but she forgot the pain.
"You know, my brother was afraid that they would find out that we were both alive, so he gave me the last chance of life, and he deliberately asked questions to attract the attention of those people, and it was from their words that we knew whose hands we had died, so they picked up a stone and threw it at my head, and at that moment my brother held me firmly under him, and even if he died, he still covered my mouth with his hand so tightly that I could not speak. ”
Looking at Suiyue in front of her, who had been drained of her soul, the woman smiled like a crazy demon, and then pulled out an extremely old embroidered bag from the placket on her chest, and when that touch of crimson fell into Suiyue's eyes, she was firmly fixed there, unable to move anymore.
"You're familiar with it, right? Brother is dead, and he also pinched the embroidered bag you gave in his hand, and there was a peace charm of enlightenment in it, have you ever thought that what you sent was not a peace charm, but a life charm that urged our family to die in Huangquan——"
Just halfway through the woman's words, Suiyue suddenly snatched the embroidered bag, opened the embroidered bag like crazy, but saw that there was the peace charm she asked for back then, even if the rune paper had changed color, and the handwriting on it was already mottled and stained, she would not be mistaken.
It turned out to be true!
Sui Yue's hands trembled so much that he could barely help himself, as if he was mad.
At that moment, the pain and sorrow accumulated in her heart could no longer be suppressed, tears almost burst out of her eyes, pinching the embroidery bag she had embroidered herself, as if she could still feel the residual temperature of the person, and the tip of her nose seemed to have the familiar faint medicinal fragrance.
However, when she saw the scarlet blood stains on the embroidered bag, it made her stunned, as if everything in front of her was dyed blood red, sad and cold, so cold that she trembled and fell to the ground, even if she couldn't even cry out loud, she could only bite her arm with her teeth to suppress the torture that rolled up like a tide.
"Why, why—"
Suiyue clutched her skirt tightly with both hands, helplessly like the unmarried bride who suddenly lost her husband, hugging her legs, curled up there, and could only repeat these words, as if she was not even conscious.
No one knows how cruel it is to experience the bad news of that year again.
"Why did the Wang family kill them?"
Sui Yue raised her head when she heard the sound and met the woman's gaze that she wanted to kill her, and in the blink of her eyes, she saw Gu Yanling standing there condescendingly, her face seemed to be sad and sighing, with a bit of compassion on her face, and her words were soft, but it was like waking up a person in a dream.
"Because of Imperial Physician Sun's integrity and conscience, it has become a threat to her and a stumbling block for her. ”
whispering, but like a hairpin, it lightly and sharply lifted the heavy dark curtain, making everything in front of it clear and frightening.
