Supplement Chapter 156: Assassination
"Xie Wei and his entourage have already lived in the Xing family's mansion, and they can do it at any time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info just, I don't want to, so I'll do it in his house. ”
In the ancestral hall of the Li family, the light is dim, and even at noon when the sun is the strongest, it is still the same here. Hundreds of ranks, hidden in the gloom, even the gilded handwriting on the top is not clear.
Su Ruan, who was kneeling on the ground, heard the voice behind him, but he didn't move, still maintaining that prostrate posture on the ground.
The person who spoke also knelt beside her, looked up at the rows of tablets, and saw that she had not spoken, so he also remained silent, looking at the handwriting on it.
"You say, isn't it a very honorable thing to be able to enter the ancestral hall after death?"
"Naturally, the Li family, there are so many people in a generation, and there are only a few people who may be placed here. ”
"But you see, even if you enter here, it's just a few words, and when future generations kneel down or offer incense, they can't even see who we are. ”
"Thousands of generations, so what?" Su Ruan heard that he didn't speak, so he continued to ask, and his words already had a bit of aggressiveness.
"Life can't be the same, death can't be the same hole, but at least, in this ancestral hall, we can still stand side by side. Li Jiangyuan's voice seemed to come from a far away, even if there were only two of them in this ancestral hall, kneeling together, it still seemed to be empty.
"In the future, will I enter this ancestral hall? Maybe, I will get a memorial arch of my own?"
"Naturally, you are Mrs. Hui'an. This is the woman of the Li family, for a hundred years, the highest glory she can get, how can you not enter the ancestral hall. Archway, if you want, I will also find a piece for you. Li Jiangyuan is still soft-spoken.
"But even if I am in this ancestral hall, with Li Su's name written on it, I am still there, isn't it by his side?" Su Ruan chuckled lowly, and the laughter kept stopping, as if he remembered what a funny thing, "Torii, what do I want it to do? to show chastity, or to call me pure filial piety, it's really funny." ”
"Li Jiangyuan, you gave me everything I wanted. As for these, don't do that. I'll get the rest myself. ”
"As for Xie Wei, if you want to kill, Xing Peng's Mansion is the best place, why do you hesitate?" "No matter what opinion or understanding I have about the Xing family, the marriage relationship between our two mansions is true. ”
"In other words, Ruan Niang, no matter what our relationship with the Xing family is, in the eyes of others, our two families are tied together. If anything happens to Xie Wei in his house, we will be suspicious. ”
"Master Hou. "Su Ruan's voice is quite yin and yang," this said something that seemed to be a little biased. It's true to suspect you, it's just that on the border of Longxi, I'm afraid that a dog will die, and the first person in Changping to suspect must be you. ”
"Left, though, you've taken on this head, so why don't you just do it to the end. Su Ruan's voice fell, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, light but extremely charming.
When Li Jiangyuan heard her words, he looked crying and laughing, and only looked at her with a pair of eyes for a long time. Su Ruan also squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at Li Jiangyuan without showing weakness. After a cup of tea, Li Jiangyuan finally couldn't maintain this look on his face, and suddenly showed a helpless but doting smile.
"Ruan Niang, you, you. Li Jiangyuan sighed, "I can't find anything to refute you." ”
"It's not that Master Hou can't find the words to refute the concubine, but he just feels that what the concubine said makes sense. Su Ruan glanced at him, his eyes were cold and charming, as if he had a thousand words, but he seemed to be silent, "Hou Yehe should be looking for a way to hit with one blow, so that he will not dirty his hand in vain." ”
"Then Ruan Niang, since I said so, I will do so. When Li Jiangyuan smiled, his whole face softened. Although he is already at an age to stand, when he laughs, he rarely has the shadow of a young man. The cold eyebrows and eyes in the past, at this moment, are faintly bright, even if the eyes are tired.
Su Ruan was stunned for a moment, only to feel that the face kneeling beside him in front of him overlapped with the face in his memory again.
When she saw him for the first time, she also knelt here, her face was pale, and her shape was erect, and he came from Changping, full of spirit, and when he stepped into this ancestral hall, he seemed to have a thousand rays of light on his body, shining brightly on this dark high hall;
But at this moment, she was still kneeling here, her eyes were cold, her clothes were luxurious, and he was silently by her side, no longer young, but there was still light, and the softness of her eyes could not illuminate this dark ancestral hall, but she could see her dead heart.
At night in Xiangyang County, it seems that it is much darker than Changping City. Only after the second watch, the lights were already dim and pitch black.
Xie Wei, who was drunk, was helped back to the guest house by his subordinates, and fell on the bed in a daze. The room was dark, and not even half of the candles were lit.
"Someone!" Xie Wei groped for a moment at the head of the bed, but he didn't catch anything in his hand, so he shouted loudly.
But the room was still empty, but no one responded, so Xie Wei shouted again.
"Someone's coming!"
But there was still no response.
Xie Wei groped his way up from the bed, stood up tremblingly, and even his steps were a little messy. Through the window covered with Korean paper, a faint amount of moonlight came in.
By the faint moonlight, Xie Wan groped for the small table in the center of the inner room. There was a celadon teapot on the small table, and several teacups were scattered around it.
Xie Wei lifted the celadon teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. With trembling hands, when he lifted the teapot, he spilled the tea on his wrist, and the table was full of tea.
After taking a cup of tea, Xie Wei finally drank the cup of tea in his mouth and drank it all in one gulp, only for a moment.
In the early morning of the second day, the morning of Xiangyang Xing was broken by a scream.
"What's going on?" Xing Peng, who had just gotten up, frowned and looked at his subordinates. Early in the morning, there was a mess in the main courtyard.
"Back to Master Hou, just now, they found out just now that Lord Xie Xie is already dead!"
"Xie Wei is dead?" Xing Peng frowned and stared fiercely at the subordinate who reported the news, his eyes were cold, and there was no smile on his entire vicissitudes of life, just a face that was more angry but never a little stunned.
"How did you die?" Xie Wei raised his eyebrows, turned to the man again, and asked, "When did you find out?"
"The little one doesn't know, it's just that when the housekeeper found Master Xie, he, he was already dead. "The little guy who replied was already trembling at this time," Lord Xie had blood flowing from his lips, and he looked at it as if he had been poisoned. ”
The curvature of Xie Wei's lips suddenly froze, he was wearing clothes, but he paused, as if in slow motion, he slowly turned around, his brows furrowed tightly, and said, "What? poisoning?"
At this time, Xie Wei's face finally had a rare stunned look, and he said slowly: "I'll take a look." ”
Xie Wei's body was already placed on the bed in the guest courtyard at this time. When Xing Peng walked into the house, he only glanced at the corpse, and knew that this situation was a thousand times more ugly than what the next person said.
The bloodstain on Xie Wei's lips was actually not clear on his face.
His face was swollen by this time, and in a purple patch, the blackened dark red blood stains would have been drowned in it if you didn't look closely.
