The rain stopped in the middle of the night, and the four fields were silent. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
A heavy slap rang out abruptly in the dark yellow room, and a snow-white body wrapped in red gauze rolled off the bed hidden by the green gauze tent. The woman's long black hair was entangled in her bare chest like a vine, and the shoulders and snow-white were so naked that the angry gaze of the man behind her was exposed.
The white undershirt hung casually on Gu Chaomin's body, the clothes were spread out, and the strong muscles were fiercely coiled on his chest. He jumped off the bed barefoot, walked behind Qing Chun, and grabbed her scattered green silk so hard that her head was forced to rise, and the corners of her mouth were shockingly bloodshot.
Gu Chaomin tugged at her hair, stared at her dead and tearful eyes, and cracked her mouth that seemed to be smiling, revealing a few fang-like sharp teeth. He put his arm around her neck and kissed her while whispering: "It turns out that you are no longer a virgin, no wonder, no wonder, you shameless dog men and women have done such a reluctant thing." In order to take revenge on me, he actually relieved his woman to make a beauty trick, a good scheming! You are such a fool, do you really think that your beloved master has a deep affection for you, he is just using you, such as Gou Jian to Xi Shi, you are just a weapon in his hand to confuse men. ā
Qing Ulva didn't even move the corners of her mouth, she didn't even blink her eyelids, as if she was dead.
The force in his hand increased, and a few strands of green silk broke away from his hand, and the green silk was still expressionless like a puppet.
Gu Chaomin looked down at the red marks on her shoulders, thinking that there was another man who had embedded his teeth in his flawless skin, jealousy and anger were like a ball of hell karma, burning his whole body was about to explode.
He slapped Qing Chun again with his backhand, making her dizzy and her ears buzzing.
Seeing his hand raised again, Qing Chun said in his heart: It's best if you slap me to death, so that I won't be subjected to this merciless torture and humiliation again!
For a living dead, physical torture cannot touch the soul at all. To bring her heart back to life, and then break it little by little. He thought of a better way to play, he sat down on one leg on the ground, and said with a smile: "Haha, if you don't believe it, if you don't believe it, let's try it and see how sincere your master is to you!" ā
He slowly approached her again, bit her lip like a poisonous snake and said, "I will trap you for the rest of my life, torture you every day, and make your life worse than death." ā
In a hazy stupor, last night's wind and rain stirred Chu Yunxi's chest and abdomen like a river and a sea. She leaned over and spat out a mouthful of blood, slowly opening her eyes.
Lu Yan heard her vomiting, hurriedly rushed over, and said happily: "Miss Lin's medical skills are really good, sure enough, after drinking the medicine, it will be fine to survive a night." ā
She wiped the remaining blood from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "I'll go and ask Miss Xuan to change the second pair of medicines." ā
After serving Chu Yunxi and drinking the medicine, she suddenly asked, "You may help me inquire about what major movements have been in the city recently?" ā
Yu Yu is also a smart person, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Childe, after Qin'er woke up, I asked her to go around the city, and I didn't see any arrest and tracking." I also did not hear any instructions from Jingzhao Prefecture.
Chu Yunxi nodded silently after hearing this, thinking that it was a felony to come and turn the fold privately. The ambush failed, and Gu Chaomin did not dare to openly pursue him even if he was bold and reckless. But such a quiet day will not last long, and it is easy for him to fabricate charges and drag her to prison. What's more, the calligraphy and painting of the Hanlin Academy waited for Chu Changgeng to disappear for no reason, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not make a big fuss about it, in short, her intentions have been exposed, and the road ahead will definitely be stormy. It's useless to be anxious, so it's better to take care of your body as soon as possible.
At sunset, someone knocked on the door, Lin Yueyuan couldn't come because she wanted to go back to the palace, so she sent someone to deliver medicine and a letter, and a letter pressed on the steps in front of her door, I don't know when and who sent it, he also sent it by the way. At that time, Chu Yunxi had already fallen asleep, and Xuan Xuan didn't wake her up because she felt sorry for her, pressed the letter under the medicine bag, and forgot about it after a while.
Lin Yueyuan's arrow sore medicine had an excellent effect, but in seven or eight days, Chu Yunxi's wound had already recovered eighty or ninety. Xuanlu also acted cautiously every day, and went to the city with Qin'er every day to inquire secretly, but the city was as noisy and prosperous as before, and there was no change in the slightest, and there was no news in the yamen that he wanted to take people, and the horror of the assassination that night seemed to be fleeting, and there was a hallucination of waking up and having a nightmare.
During this period, Shi Jiaheng came to see it several times. Soon, Biyin also came back, and cried again in front of her bed, unwilling to go back to Shunan alone to steal her life.
She could only lament speechlessly, although her sister was lazy and squeamish on weekdays, she resolutely protected her at critical moments. Although she has suffered a lot in her life, she can always meet good people who sacrifice their lives to accompany her.
As soon as her body was right, she thought about leaving here, but she couldn't say this to Xuan, so she could only leave silently. She was only sure to go, but she didn't know where to go, she fell into a deep confusion, in the time she was in bed, she thought desperately every day, thinking that her head hurt, swollen, thinking that her head was like a stone, but there was only a vast sea of fog and an empty and dry desert, she once again felt the emptiness of life, even if she blocked her life, she was powerless to resist the prime minister's blade, and she had a sense of retreat for the first time.
She and Lu Yan and Bi Yin quietly packed their luggage without telling Xuan, no matter what, she had to send Lu Yan and the others to Shi Jiaheng's mansion first, and then do what she thought after ensuring her safety.
They agreed to leave tomorrow morning.
After dinner, Chu Yunxi sat at the table in a daze, and Lu Yan and the others were still helping in the kitchen, when they knocked on the door suddenly, she panicked and became nervous inexplicably.
Her face flushed with joy, and in just a few days, it was like a dead tree in spring, and she looked at her heart more and more unpleasantly.
Holding a few porcelain vases and dishes, and carrying a few scrolls into the house, he looked around the room happily, unfolded the scroll in his hand and said: "Don't be surprised, Childe, this house is really simple, and there are no decent furnishings in the house. As she spoke, she happily set the vase and put a few watery lilies,
Chu Yunxi was moved by her carefulness and thoughtfulness, and her heart was as sour as if she had poured bitter water, she abruptly picked up the painting scroll on the table and unfolded it casually. These paintings are much more sophisticated than the shoddy paintings on the street stalls, and although they are not elegant, they are more than enough to decorate small households.
The first two are landscapes, she shook off the last one, but it was a portrait, the person in the painting was wearing a Taoist robe, wearing a Taoist crown, with a broad face and red ears, and a long sword on his back, which should have been dignified and solemn, but was depicted as uninhibited, with fluttering clothes, and a white peony in his hand.
When she talked to her, she didn't seem to answer when she couldn't hear it, but just stared at the words in a daze, and her face became more and more solemn.
She leaned over worriedly, glanced cautiously at the painting in her hand, blushed in annoyance, tugged at his sleeve, and said in a lamented voice: "This is because Qin'er was careless, confused, I have thrown it away, I think the girl didn't know that I didn't want it anymore, and picked it up again, and burned it." ā
The signature of the author of this painting, Chu Yunxi is no stranger. This was originally a colleague's study in the art academy, he was a prodigal man, often with the Qinglou red face to spread some romantic affairs, when Xuan Xuan appeared on the list of the Oiran of the Fengya Building, it was a peony to boast of himself, so his work is to take the "Lu Dongbin three plays of white peony" meaning to laugh at her. She thought it was funny and stayed, but now she is embarrassed and sad to be seen by her beloved.
She wanted to find a way to fool the past casually, but who knew that Chu Yunxi's eyes were as sharp as arrows to penetrate the painting. Suddenly, she screamed in a panic, and Chu Yunxi had already thrown down the painting in her hand and rushed out.
Chu Yunxi ran wildly for a while, her heart was like a carp in a pot, churning, the road was very smooth, she did not meet the soldiers patrolling the city, nor was she stopped by others when she stole into the Prime Minister's Mansion, she could no longer distract herself from thinking about whether this was a coincidence or a trap. The dark room in the study opened again, and she walked inside.
She stood at the desk, and by the glow of the ever-bright lamp, she looked up at the statue of the god standing quietly, and the idol's eyes narrowed slightly, both kind and majestic, as if she had become accustomed to the ugliness of the world, and tolerated and blessed the people who worshiped him.
But she knew that the soul in the idol was angry, bitter, and hateful, and that the love lock that had trapped him for more than ten years, and the clay that would seal his freedom after his death, were all punishments inflicted on his talent by heaven. If there is an afterlife, she expects him to be an ignorant and happy ordinary person.
She climbed up the table and came behind the idol, where she finally saw what was on its back, and the half of it was the hilt of the sword, not the hilt.
She pushed it down. When the false appearance of peace was shattered and revealed for what it was, she saw the white bones wrapped in the broken green robes, lying in the bones unaltered, the long black iron knife as solid as a rock.
She fell off the table and slammed to the side of the rubble, she could no longer feel the pain of her bones hitting the floor, and the impact of the waves of the sea had faded away, replaced by a long loss of consciousness.
The ever-bright light flickered and flickered, as if to guide the lonely soul back.
But where should her soul be laid? She remembered the smell of gunpowder in the corridor, and suddenly laughed, hatred flooded her heart, and finally drowned out her reason. When the prime minister comes back, she will be able to end all this with just one spark, why bother looking for evidence, why do you need the truth to be revealed, and what compensation is needed for the blood buried in the soil.
She's foolishly wasting her life, and destruction is the best justice.
She had forgotten the innocents who might have lost their lives in a vengeful destruction, and the evil of hatred was slowly eroding her heart.
With a half-bang, she got up from the ground, she had never felt that her life was so precious.
She wrapped up the broken bones and lifted the steel sword on her back. This sinful place does not deserve to be the burial place of Bai Biao, he belongs to his rivers and mountains, belongs to his sunset flowers, belongs to his poetry and painting pride, and belongs to his free rivers and lakes.
The jade wheel on the horizon shines brightly, sprinkling the clear light of the room.
She came out of the dark room with a heavy package on her back, sneered and looked around the prime minister's study, and then something strange happened again.
The book in the middle of the bookshelf turned back again, and she remembered, she remembered, and when she entered, her eyes swept over the shelf, where the spine of the row of books seemed to be all facing outward.
Could it be that she was hallucinating? Is it all fake?
She stumbled to the bookshelf, pulled out the book, and sure enough, it was the Chu family genealogy again, and she flipped through it lightly to see the last few pages, where her uncle, the father who had become her enemy, and her brothers and sisters.
This time she looked much closer, as if there was a mischievous imp hiding in the book playing hide and seek with her.
She walked to the window, the moon was clear, and the fine small characters on the page finally appeared in front of her completely.
Her heart, which had been cold and gray, was shaken, and she began to turn over the river and the sea again, and she began to recall what her father had done in this life, and instantly a somewhat whimsical guess formed in her mind. Is this self-deception or is there something else going on?
The chaos of thoughts made her head ache, she needed to be quiet and think, she needed clues and calm.
When the emotionally uncontrollable Xuanlu saw her return, she was about to throw herself into her arms, but fortunately Lu Yan grabbed her, otherwise the two of them would have vomited blood from this collision.
This frightened Chu Yunxi was sober for the most part, and she grabbed Yu Yu and asked, "Didn't Miss Lin give you anything when she left that day?" ā
She wiped her tears and thought for a while, "Yes, I'll get it for you." ā
When she received the letter, she hurriedly tore it open to look at it. Lu Yan and Bi Yin didn't dare to come forward to ask when they saw her abnormal expression. Her eyes were swollen, and she held another heart in her hand, her mind full of apologies and remorse.
After reading the letter, she suddenly covered her head and sat down. Lu Yan glanced at Biyin, Biyin withdrew, she pulled the sleeve of Xuan's shirt again, but Xuanxuan nodded the letter in her hand and whispered, "I'll go over in a minute." ā
After the two left, she mustered up the courage to speak and called her, but she asked, "Do you say that people will change?" ā
Xuan Xuan pondered for a moment and said: "It's hard to say about this, I have seen a lot of people in the Qin and Twilight and Chu and the three and the twilight, and I also believed it before." However, some people often say that the nature of the country is easy to change and difficult to change, and my heart is a stone and cannot be changed. My heart is a bandit, and I can't be swept away. ā
These two words were from her heart, and she felt that she loved her to the extreme, so she sat down with her arm in her arms and shyly rested on her shoulder.
She turned her head and smelled the fragrance of flowers in her hair, and her heart was sad and warm, and she couldn't help but snuggle up to her.
She felt very happy, but she didn't want anything more in this life. After being with her for a long time, she handed her another letter in her hand and said, "There is another letter, I don't know who sent it, saying that it was pressed at your door." Blame me, forget these days, I don't know what can delay you? ā
Chu Yunxi opened the letter, but found that the handwriting on the letter was messy and only one sentence was written: "If you want to keep the life of Qing Chun, come to Gu Mansion quickly." Gu Chaomin. ā
