Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Cave Skeleton (2)
Bai Shui didn't know how long she had been in a coma, and she didn't even realize that she had fainted when she woke up, her eyes opened slightly and she heard Qin Fang calling her name anxiously, and she suddenly remembered why she was lying here. Before his eyes were fully opened, tears rolled down in unison, and he cried out in a hoarse voice, "Brother-"
Qin Fang was stunned, looking at her haggard appearance, he couldn't help but feel sad, and hugged her, "Shuishui, don't cry." β
"Where's my brother?"
"They came back together and sent them to the Criminal Department. Mingyue: They were there too. β
Bai Shui was stunned for a long time before he said, "Master Su is also there?" β
"In ...... It's just that he is now a member of the Ministry of Rites, and it is estimated that he can't interfere in these matters. But don't worry, brother-in-law, he won't sit idly by, and neither will I! β
Bai Shui's heart did not fluctuate, her sorrow was greater than her death, her mind was full of the cave, and she felt a sense of collapse when she saw her brother. It's like walking in a boundless place for a long, long time, knowing that there is a way out ahead, but after walking for ten or twenty years, suddenly someone tells her that there is no way out at all!
There is no way out, no purpose, no support.
She worked hard for so many years, but in the end she got a white bone from her brother.
She thought she could afford to carry the heavens and the earth, but now that the sky had fallen, she realized that she was as small as an ant and as weak as an insect. Qin Fang knew that she was uncomfortable, and wanted to sigh, but he didn't dare, so he could only hug her tightly.
"What are you doing here......
The voice behind him was surprised and even stunned, and even his voice was trembling. Qin Fang paused suddenly, looked back, and was surprised, "Mother." β
Mrs. Qin looked at the hands of the two of them that had not yet let go, and was so annoyed that she stepped forward quickly, slapped the water of Bai Shui hard, and shouted, "What kind of body do two big men hug and hug!" You ......" Her eyes were fixed on Bai Shui, and she suddenly found that the chest of the person on the bed who was only wearing underwear was undulating, and then she looked at the face, her eyebrows were clear and beautiful, and she was sickly delicate, and she was clearly a woman. She was even more surprised and took a step back.
Before she could come back to her senses, she sensed that the subordinate behind her was about to enter the house, and turned around and shouted angrily, "Get out!" Close the door. β
The servant was startled, and did not know what was happening, so he hurriedly closed the door of the room.
When Mrs. Qin turned around, she saw that her son was already kneeling in front of her, "Mother, Shui Shui is a good girl, don't embarrass her." β
Mrs. Qin sneered, "Embarrassed? You're clearly embarrassing me. Isn't she a headcatcher? Isn't it from Kaifeng Mansion? Then why is she a woman? This is deceiving the court, don't you know that this is a felony of killing the head! β
"I know, but Shui Shui has a hard time, she came to Kaifeng in disguise as a man to find her brother."
"Did she find her brother?"
Qin Fang paused slightly, "Found it." β
Mrs. Qin had a cold face, "Then leave the Qin family and leave Kyoto quickly, and you are not allowed to have anything to do with her." Someone who bears such a crime, do you still have the ability to marry her into the family? β
Qin Fang was silent, then looked at Bai Shui, whose face was pale, and then said, "Her brother...... Passed away. β
Mrs. Qin's sarcastic words that had reached her lips couldn't help but retract, and she didn't speak ill of each other again, but it was also ridiculous for such a thing to happen. It is a big crime to impersonate his identity, and he dares to touch such a girl, and he brings it home, if he lets his subordinates know......
At this time, she was ruthless to drive Bai Shui away, but it was a hidden danger at home. She looked at Bai Shui for a moment before she said, "Forgive me for not keeping you." β
Qin Fang said urgently, "Mother! β
"Shut up!" Madam Qin whispered, "If your father came back and knew that you had done such a foolish thing, do you think he would only skin you?" Even she had to be broken and sent to the mansion! β
This is true, Qin Fang also knows his father's methods. But he couldn't bear Bai Shui to leave like this, he was her dependent, and he promised her to take care of her, but now that such a big thing happened, he had to send her away when she was in the most pain.
Bai Shui struggled out of bed, bent over to Mrs. Qin and thanked him, and then found his official uniform to wear.
Mrs. Qin saw that the official uniform was tattered, and there were still blood stains in the shabby places, and then from the thin underwear, the girl's body should have been intact, but she could see a lot of gauze wrapped around it. She sighed secretly, if she could stay, she didn't want to be too ruthless, but she really couldn't stay.
When she saw her son come forward to dress her, she suddenly remembered that her son hadn't even worn his own clothes, and thought that he didn't shy away from suspicion like this, but she was afraid that she had already asked for the innocence of other girls. When I thought about it like this, I felt even more guilty and didn't urge.
After Bai Shui put on it, he thanked Mrs. Qin again and walked away. Seeing that Qin Fang was going to follow, Mrs. Qin stepped forward and grabbed his arm, and shouted, "Did you listen to what your mother said?" The tighter you get entangled, the more suspicious your dad will be, and she'll die then, do you know?! β
Qin Fang was stunned, the question he had been avoiding, thinking that he had thought clearly and had a firm will, but now he really had to face it, but he found that he was not prepared at all.
He just gave Bai Shui a promise, but in fact, he couldn't do anything.
In front of his father and in front of the imperial power, he is a son-in-law who can only eat, drink and have fun.
A huge sense of frustration struck, and Qin Fang was in a trance. He looked in the direction of Bai Shui's departure, just like last time.
Seeing that he hadn't gone in, Mrs. Qin hurriedly said, "How long are you going to mess around?" β
"Mother." Qin Fang came back to his senses in a trance, "I didn't mess around, I like her, she made me think about what we have to face in the future." I figured it out then that no matter what happened in the future, I had to protect her. Now that it's really here, how can I go back on my word. β
Mrs. Qin was stunned, "Aren't you afraid that your father will send her to prison?" β
"I'm afraid, it's just that today's incident can't be hidden from my father, the people in the family, do you think your mother will really listen to you? Sue sΓΉ, sue sΓΉ, no matter what happens to her in the future, whether she goes to prison or is expelled from Kyoto, I can't leave her alone. β
After that, Qin Fang walked out, and Mrs. Qin reached out to grab him, but her son gently pushed away her outstretched hand, and she could only watch him leave.
When did her son, who lived mainly for fun every day, become so upright......
Qin Fang chased after her for a while before catching up with Bai Shui, and the moment he saw her side face, Fang Cai's hesitation disappeared. He looked at it and laughed, and he couldn't wait to hug her now, and tell her that he didn't hide this time.
Bai Shui's face was pale, and she didn't look up at him, and she walked for a long time before she turned her head and stared coldly, "What are you doing here?" Go back, go back to your home, I don't want to be targeted by Yan Guogong before I find out my brother's case. β
Qin Fang's smile slowly retracted until it was completely put away, and he said, "Don't go." β
Bai Shui looked at his scoundrel appearance and couldn't move for a moment. Qin Fang bent down and took her big knife, it was really heavy in his hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to Su's house." β
Bai Shui was silent and nodded slightly. After entering the yamen, she has always been relied on by others, and now, there is finally someone who can let her rely on.
&&&&&
After Su Yunkai and Mingyue arrived at Qin's house, the housekeeper told them that Qin Fang had just gone out, and there was the white catcher. Asked where they were, the butler shook his head and said he didn't know.
On the way, the two guessed that they either went to the Su family or went to Mingyue, after all, Qin Fang knew that they were going to the Criminal Department, and they should go back at this time.
Mingyue said, "If you don't go home, I'll go home too, and I'll not be afraid of falling into the air." β
This method is the most trouble-free, Su Yunkai nodded, and said, "If you find that they haven't come when you go home, maybe they haven't arrived yet, don't leave yet." Wait for them to wait for them, and then go over together. β
"Hmm."
Su Yunkai said again, "When I see Baishui, I will go to Gushan again, there are too many strange things, maybe there will be some clues." β
Mingyue also felt that something was wrong there, but even people like Bai Ying were killed, and she was a little uneasy, "Bring a few more people." β
"Yes."
This place is already very close to Mingyue's home, and after the two separated, Mingyue trotted home, afraid that Bai Shui would come back first, and wanted to accompany her quickly. Bai Shui's home was next door to her, and when she passed in front of the door, she saw that the lock on it was not opened, so she didn't stop. But suddenly she heard the crisp sound of a tree branch being trampled on in the yard, and she paused.
happened to open the door and pour water on the other side of the door, she hurriedly went over and whispered, "Aunt He, can you let me in, my brother Bai's house seems to have been robbed." β
Aunt He stepped back and let her in, closed the door before saying, "It's not Bai Zhutou who came back?" When I was carrying fish into the house, I heard movement on the other side. β
"If it's really him, why wouldn't he go to the front door, the lock on the door hasn't been opened yet."
"I forgot."
"His key is hung with the waist tag, and he can't lose it." Mingyue looked back at the second floor of her house, "Aunt He, I'll go up and take a look, I can see the courtyard of my brother Bai's house there." β
"Go ahead."
Mingyue walked to the attic with the hem of her skirt, where there were sundries, few people went, and when she went in, she was covered with cobwebs. She leaned over and slowly walked to the window, peering across the door. There was no one in the Bai family's courtyard, she frowned, could it be that she heard it wrong?
She was about to leave when two men suddenly came out of the house, and she was startled, and the two men whispered a few words to each other, and then went to the high wall of the alley, and with almost no effort, jumped up easily, and climbed out of the wall.
The two of them had never seen Mingyue before, and she didn't know much about the people in the capital, so she couldn't recognize who they were. I was about to go down to Bai's house to have a look, but I saw a burst of smoke rising from the opposite house, and the fire burst out of the house, instantly sweeping half of the wooden house.
