cpa300_4();“ It's you. ”

When I finally said this, I don't know why, the whole person seemed to be hollowed out at this moment, there was no expected pain, and there was no imagined ease, I just opened my eyes a little hollowly, looking at the man in front of me who was also calm, but a little hollow.

My husband, who shares the same bed with me, is the husband who has been sleeping with me for so many years.

The person I should trust the most.

It's you.

I'm sure the wrong person, but it's not him, it's you.

Hearing these two words, he didn't seem to be surprised or stunned, just looked at me motionlessly: "Me?"

“……”

"You say it's me?"

“……”

"Why?"

“……”

I didn't answer his question, but asked rhetorically: "Then you sue me, who killed your former sister, the eldest princess Pei Yuanzhen?"

He was stunned for a moment, it seemed that it was only at this time that there was a sudden light in his dark eyes, flickering constantly, as if he was in a trance in his heart, after hesitating for a long time, I looked at his lips slightly open and closed, as if to say something, but before he spoke, I said calmly: "Yuan Xiu." ”

“……”

"Don't lie to me. ”

“……”

His lips slowly closed again.

I could hear his breath fall silent, and after a long silence he said, "Do you already have an answer?"

"I've seen Gu Ping. ”

After saying this, I saw that his eyes suddenly burst into light, as if something had been punctured, and when he looked at me again, the whole person's breath became solemn, and I immediately said calmly: "Don't go to him, after I saw him in the afternoon, I have warned him to leave Jinling and leave this place quickly." ”

“…… Why?"

"I know, after that incident, he should have been wiped out, but his relationship with me is not ordinary, if he dies for no reason, I will definitely not give up lightly, I will definitely investigate to the end, in order to prevent me from finding out some clues, so you didn't kill him. ”

“……”

"Yuan Xiu, if you still take care of our husband and wife, I beg you not to go to him, he is already very pitiful. ”

Even if I summoned him in the inner courtyard, he asked Cao Hu and them to protect me, but he didn't dare to come to see me; until today, when I asked Cao Hu to ask him to come to see me in the inner courtyard, he seemed to finally understand that some things were out of his mind, so he finally appeared in front of me. When he saw me, the heavy guilt in his eyes almost crushed his whole body, and the look of collapse made my heart ache.

Pei Yuanxiu didn't speak, but his face became paler and paler every moment, and under the faint candlelight, his face was almost transparent, and he couldn't see his feelings more and more.

Perhaps, I never saw it clearly.

After a long time, he asked, "How do you know it's him?"

I was silent for a moment, then slowly pulled out my fist-clenched hand from the quilt and unfolded it in front of him.

In the palm of his hand is a heavy silver lock.

At the beginning, when she was still in Jixiang Village, Liu San'er went to the town to order it for her after Miaoyan was born, and it was even engraved with the names of the three of us.

Light

Liu San

Never leave.

When I crossed the river to find Liu Qinghan to ask for that love poem as a letter of resignation, I once gave Gu Ping something wrapped in red cloth on the bow of the boat, that is, this silver lock. It's just that I asked him not to open it in front of me, I'm afraid I won't be reluctant, because this silver lock records the happiness of me and him, our past, a good memory, and it is also what I left, the only trace that there was between me and him.

It's just that at that time, I promised to marry Pei Yuanxiu, and I also want to say goodbye to my past, although I was reluctant, I could only do this.

But I didn't expect that this silver lock would tell me a truth many years later.

I said: "This silver lock was given to Ping'er before I married you, but today, Liu Qinghan dropped something from his hand on the execution ground, but it was this silver lock. ”

“……”

"Why do you think this thing ended up in his hands?"

“……”

"What do you think I should think?"

Pei Yuanxiu's face slowly sank.

And at this time, I finally understood that in the new house full of blood that night, I was obviously arguing with Han Ruoshi why Liu Qinghan still had to confess.

That night, when he sat in the new house with Pei Yuanzhen's body covered in blood, his hand also kept holding Pei Yuanzhen's hand, and he didn't say a word from beginning to end, until-until Wen Fengxi looked at their hands, as if he had found something, and was about to ask, he suddenly opened his mouth to confess.

Because, he got this thing from Pei Yuanzhen's hands.

And on this, my name is clearly engraved!

Perhaps, in order to protect me, because this silver lock is already the most direct proof, perhaps, he can't let Han Ruoshi's accusation against me go deeper, perhaps, he also realizes that the peace in Jiangnan and Jiangbei is temporary, and Jinling urgently needs an excuse to go to war, and once I am accused of killing the eldest princess, it may give Jinling the most direct excuse to go to war...... This qiē may be what he considered.

So, he confessed.

I felt a sour feeling in my heart, but I still pressed it down at the moment, raised my head to look at Pei Yuanxiu, and said slowly: " On the night they got married, there was no Gu Ping in the escort you arranged, although I was a little surprised, and I didn't care too much, after all, when I was in Yangzhou with Miao Yan, it was because of his poor protection, so he was injured, and you didn't send him, so it was reasonable to be reasonable, but today I realized that his protection was not effective, and he had to be punished, so I was injured, and he also felt guilty, and this qiē became an excuse for you to send him to carry out this plan. ”

“……”

"And that night, originally Han Ruoshi said that she was not in good health and did not come with us, but then she came by herself, and I didn't care about it at the time, I just thought that she wanted to embarrass me, so I didn't think about anything else. But today I learned that Gu Ping was on her boat and approached the red boat, and later, the river lights of the river attracted everyone, and it was at that time that he had the opportunity to board the boat. ”

“……”

"He accompanied me and Miao Yan to Yangzhou Mansion for a whole afternoon, of course he has already understood the deployment of Yangzhou Mansion guards, and those guards on the red boat are also directly transferred from the state capital, and the law of their shift change must be the same as in the state capital, so he can seize the opportunity and sneak into the new house unconsciously......"

“……”

He had been listening to my words calmly, and at this time, he was still not the slightest moved, and only asked, "Then how do you believe that this qiē was instructed by me?"

I looked at him and said with some sadness: "Yuan Xiu, that night, when I wanted to go to the garden behind the cabin to find a good word, you kept pulling me. ”

“……”

"If I'm not mistaken, at that time, it was when Ping'er was killing Pei Yuanzhen, right?"

“……”

"You kept pulling me, because you didn't want me to run into Gu Ping, and you didn't want me to see that scene. ”

“……”

"After all, you are different from Han Ruoshi, she wants me to die, but you are not. ”

“……”

"However, I didn't see that scene, but the wonderful words did. ”

“……”

Because that night, in order to congratulate her third uncle on getting married, she specially prepared a gift for Pei Yuanzhen, and she took advantage of that time to give it to Pei Yuanzhen. She's scared to be like this because she witnessed that murder!"

No, not only because she witnessed that qiē, but also because she saw Brother Ping, who was once close to her, who would slowly persuade her when she had conflicts with her mother, and Brother Ping, who held her when she was in danger, would actually kill someone!

When I said this, my voice trembled, and tears kept rolling in my eyes, and my whole body was shaking.

I can almost imagine how shocked and painful it was at that time!

At this moment, a hand reached over and gently cupped my cheek, his fingers were as strong as ever, his palm was as warm as before, but at this moment, it only made me feel pain. I was holding my face by him, and I looked up at him, and heard him say dryly, "What if I say, this qiē-I don't know?"

I looked at him for a long time, and finally choked up, "Impossible." ”

"Why?"

"Because it was Pei Yuanzhen who you killed. ”

“……”

"Yuan Xiu, after all, Pei Yuanzhen has been a brother and sister with you for so many years, if it was Han Ruoshi, she couldn't have no scruples at all. ”

“……”

"If she cares about you, she won't touch your former sister lightly. ”

“……”

"So this matter, from beginning to end, was planned and instructed by you. You want to kill Pei Yuanzhen, although she marries Liu Qinghan, it is good for you and me, but once they get married, Pei Yuanzhen opens a mansion in Yangzhou, she and Liu Qinghan will further close the relationship between the imperial court and Xichuan, the imperial court and Jiangnan, you have been deploying and increasing troops in Jinling, you can't let her become the first obstacle for you to go north, so, you killed her on the night she got married!"

“……”

"But, you let Gu Ping do it after their worship, not before. ”

“……”

"Because, even if she dies, you have to let Liu Qinghan marry her first!"

As I finished speaking, I heard him let out a long breath.

Then, his tense shoulders collapsed completely, as if some burden that had been pressing on his shoulders for a long time had finally been let go at this moment, and I saw a relaxed expression on his face, although at this time, he was somewhat at a loss and a little panicked.
