Chapter 44: Tearing the Disguise
Falling Wind Pavilion
A sneaky black figure stopped outside the window and stretched out his hand to "knock, knock, knock" on the window railing three times
"Who's outside?" the people in the room were obviously disturbed, and a sharp female voice came from behind the beaded curtain, and then the candlelight in the room suddenly became bright
"Second Miss, the villain has something important to report," the rough voice sounded, the candlelight illuminated his face, this person was the blind warlock invited by the jewel, and after waiting for a while, there was no reaction in the room, and the blind man continued to speak
"It's about the third prince Yuan Xin and the eldest lady"
As expected, a moment later, the door was opened from the inside with a "bang", and Mu Luorou, wrapped in a crimson cloak, appeared at the door, but her face was cold, completely gone, and the sweet and innocent smile of the past was completely gone
"Come in and say"
"It's the second miss," the dark night hid a few strange and cunning looks on the blind man's gray thin face
Mu Luorou walked to the soft couch and sat down, and glanced at the shabby blind warlock a few steps away, "If you have something to say, say it quickly"
The blind man bowed respectfully, and his godless eyes swept over Mu Luorou's face for a moment: "Second Miss, Third Highness Yuan Xin went to the eldest lady this evening."
"Nonsense, this is the third prince of the Mu Mansion, how could he come to the Xiang Mansion before you lie, you should inquire first," Mu Luorou's tight red lips showed her displeasure at the moment
"Hey, hey, hey,......," the blind man laughed strangely, and his two disgusting eyebrows twitched up and down
"What are you laughing at" Mu Luorou frowned, "Shut up, don't laugh"
Hearing this, the blind man stopped his weird smile, and reached out to touch the ugly black mole on his chin, "There is no half a lie in what the villain said, as for why the third highness went to see the eldest lady, a concubine who was disliked by the prime minister, presumably the second lady doesn't need the villain to remind her."
"What do you mean by this," a trace of panic flashed in Mu Luorou's eyes
"Hehe, the second miss and the third highness have known each other for decades, what kind of person the third highness is, and the second miss still hasn't figured it out?"
"Who are you," Mu Luorou's face turned pale, how could she have imagined that the secret that had been buried in her heart for decades, this amazing secret that was enough to ruin her reputation, would be pierced by a blind man so lightly today, and she yelled: "What do you want to do?"
"The villain doesn't want to do anything, the villain just kindly reminds the second miss, and the second miss doesn't want her decades of hard work and beloved man to be snatched away by her own sister so effortlessly, as for the reason, the eldest lady's mother is the villain I killed, so naturally I don't want her to have the opportunity to take revenge."
Mu Luorou's red lips trembled slightly, and her apricot eyes kept looking back and forth at the blind man's black and thin face, as if she was pondering the truth of his words, and finally an idea was secretly finalized in her heart, and she exhaled a long breath: "Okay, I know, you go down, from now on, you will help me in secret, I will not treat you badly"
The blind man smiled "hehe", and the black mole on his chin stirred, "Thank you, Miss Er"
After the blind man left, Mu Luorou still sat motionless on the couch, her lips were white and powdery, her fists were clutched, and there seemed to be blood dripping in her heart
Why did he go to his sister, she worked hard for him for decades, and asked her to give up a qiē, she didn't hesitate, but he still didn't want to choose her
In that case, don't blame her for not missing sisterhood
…………………………
In the darkness of the night, the moon hung in the sky like ink
The wake was over, Mu Xinya dragged her tired body back into the house, looked at the familiar surroundings, and felt a pain in her heart......
Suddenly, there was a little movement from the door behind her, which made her turn around, and since the man in blue had spoken to her in the evening, her heart had always been inexplicably unsteady, so she was also extra worried
The door creaked open from the outside, and the cold wind swept in, and a crimson figure stood outside the door, very mad in the dark night
Mu Xinya was taken aback, and before she could react, the person outside suddenly untied the red cloak wrapped around her body, revealing a familiar face
"My sister is me"
"Luo Rou" saw the face of the person who came clearly, Mu Xinya exclaimed, and saw that Mu Luorou was dressed very thinly, so she walked over in a few steps and pulled her in
"Luo Rou is not worried that my sister came alone to accompany my sister"
"But here I am," Mu Xinya glanced at her humble wooden bed in embarrassment
"Sister out of the way"
Mu Luorou's voice was very soft, full of sincerity, which couldn't help but warm Mu Xinya's heart, and her eyes were warm, Luo Rou was the only person in this house who cared about her, "Thank you, Luo Rou"
Her bed was not big, but Luo Rou didn't dislike the kimono at all, and slept on the same bed with her
"Sister, have you felt sad for so many years," Luo Rou suddenly asked her
Mu Xinya was stunned for a moment, and lowered her eyes gloomily: "My sister's suffering for so many years is far from being as sad as the three days", how can there be anything as good as the pain of the dead mother......
Mu Luorou was silent, her apricot eyes flickered, neither of the two sisters was talking, the night was still quiet, and after a while, Mu Xinya heard the sound of even breathing coming from her side
Is Luorou asleep?
Mu Xinya tilted her head to look at her, saw that her eyes were closed, carefully tucked the quilt for her, turned over and fell asleep
I don't know how long she slept, and suddenly she felt a little chill on her body, and her hand subconsciously touched to her side
There is no one empty
Mu Xinya woke up suddenly, her sleepy eyes had not fully opened, and the hazy moonlight spilled in through the window
Luo Rou is gone
Mu Xinya hurriedly straightened up, hurriedly glanced around, and suddenly saw a person sitting at the end of the bed, brightly dressed in red, with his head lowered
"Luo Rou, what are you doing sitting there," Mu Xinya looked at Mu Luo Rou who was sitting motionless there
Hearing this, Mu Luorou raised her head, and there was no sleepiness in her apricot eyes, "Sister, you're awake," she called her softly
Her expression was very different from usual, as if she had changed as if she had changed her person, this discovery made Mu Xinya couldn't help but be a little flustered and asked tentatively: "Luorou, what's wrong with you?"
"Sister" asked her softly, "Sister, do you know someone?"
"Who"
"The proprietress of the brocade and embroidery workshop"
Aunt Fang
"I know her, but Luo Rou, how could you ask Aunt Fang well," and how could Luo Rou know about Aunt Fang
Mu Luorou smiled lightly, her small face was very exquisite, "Luorou not only knows her, but also knows that her sister has been selling embroidery to Jinhe Embroidery Workshop for so many years to supplement the family, isn't it?"
Mu Xinya nodded hesitantly, frowning slightly, "That's right, but how are you?"
"Because the owner who bought my sister's embroidery over the years is, yes, I," Mu Luorou interrupted her stiffly, and spit out the last three words
That's me......
The person who bought her embroidery over the years was Luo Rou
Mu Xinya only felt as if her head had been hit by something, which made her completely sober up all of a sudden, and countless feelings in her heart overflowed her chest
In this way, she has survived all these years by relying on Luo Rou's "relief", Luo Rou is secretly helping her, but it's not right, why does she feel that something is wrong......
Raising her eyes to look at Mu Luorou's smiling face, Mu Xinya's heart suddenly cooled, and her sister bought her sister's embroidery, Luorou, this is in ...... Playing with her heart's whims
"Sister, haven't you understood," Mu Luorou slowly stood up from the edge of the bed, and the bright red cloak pierced Mu Xinya's eyes, and she walked towards her
"Sister knows, every time the shopkeeper Fang sent an embroidery, I burned one, she sent so much, all of them were taken by me to light the incense burner, and the soothing incense I smell every day is still mixed with the fragrance of my sister's hand."
"What are you talking about, what the hell are ......" Mu Xinya's eyes widened in disbelief as she stopped as she walked in front of her
Is this person really the kind-hearted Mu Luorou she has known since she was a child?
Mu Luorou looked down at her faintly, and a trace of arrogance appeared on her face, "Because I never intended to let you have a good life, I just wanted to torture you, see your crying pitiful appearance, I want you to understand that I am the noble concubine of the Prime Minister's house, and you are just the eldest daughter of the concubine."
After speaking, Mu Luorou stretched out her hand hidden under the cloak, and saw a dagger glowing with cold light holding it tightly in her hand
"Sister Luorou, I'll send you to reunite with your mother"
The dagger stabbed Mu Xinya's heart fiercely, and in a hurry, Mu Xinya bit her lower lip and could only raise her arm to protect her chest
"Ahh
The dagger stabbed deep into her arm, and blood gushed out, and bright red blood stained her purple dress
Pain...... Yes...... It hurts
The pain that pierced her heart swept in an instant, spreading to every inch of her hair, Mu Xinya's brows were furrowed, and the big cold sweat on her forehead continued to flow down, and through her tears, she saw Mu Luo's soft and cruel face and cold eyes
It turns out that Luo Rou has been lying to her for so many years, and has been playing her all the time, and now she wants to kill her......
Her heart was so painful that she was about to suffocate, Mu Xinya gritted her teeth, used all her strength, pushed Mu Luorou away, and then pulled out the dagger inserted in her arm
The flesh and dagger separated, splattering more blood
Holding down the bleeding wound, Mu Xinya began to gasp for breath, trying to get out of bed and escape
Mu Luorou, who was suddenly pushed away, saw her desire to survive, her eyes were suddenly cold, and she went up directly and twisted her injured arm hard, "Ah", the huge pain made Mu Xinya scream in pain, and the whole person almost fainted, taking advantage of her relaxation, Mu Luorou's hands climbed up her neck and began to tighten slowly
She was going to strangle her to death
The force on her neck was enough to make her unable to breathe at all, and Mu Luorou's nails were even embedded in her flesh, and a stream of blood rushed straight up in her brain, and her injured arm was completely unable to exert her strength
Consciousness gradually blurred, there was chaos in her mind, and Mu Xinya gradually began to give up resistance
Mother's relatives Le Ling Fang Yunting was alone, and the smiles of these people began to flash in her mind in bits and pieces, and she slowly closed her eyes overflowing with tears
"Protect yourself," the man in blue suddenly sounded in her ears in the evening
Hehe, I'm afraid she won't be able to protect herself anymore
She is so tired and painful, can she be relieved......
