Chapter 171
After Wan Shi walked out of Canglan Garden, he still felt cold in his palms, and his mind kept thinking about what Xie Yan had said to her earlier. Wan couldn't figure out why Xie Yan wanted to say those words to her, whether Aunt Lan was missing or dead, it would be reasonable to say that it wouldn't have anything to do with her.
And she said that the murderer behind the scenes was the second master Shen Qi, Wan snorted coldly, what kind of thing is Shen Qi...... A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, could it be that Xie Yan said that on purpose? In fact, she didn't know who the murderer was at all, but it was only because Aunt Lan was the concubine of the second master Shen Qi that she guessed so. Then I deliberately called her over today, not to tell her, but to learn something from her.
Thinking back to his previous reaction, Wan Shi was a little unsure if he had shown any of his feet.
Thinking about it while walking, and then making sure that she shouldn't have said anything, if Xie Yan wants to suspect the second master Shen Xuan, then let her doubt it, she wants to investigate the death of Aunt Lan and Lu Zhu It has nothing to do with her, thinking so, Wan's heart is slightly settled.
Even if this matter is known to 'him', it will probably not involve her.
Back to their own pear flower garden, the maids came forward to serve, the third lady Wan changed her clothes, but left this matter behind, the third old man went to Beizhili a year ago, did not be called to return to Beijing at will, Wan is living alone in the pear garden this year.
After dinner in the evening, the maids waited for Wan to sleep on the bed, turned off the lights, Wan didn't like people to serve in the room, only the door guarded two night maids, the door in the yard was also closed, Wan Lai was silent, Wan was about to fall asleep, but suddenly heard a sound in the quiet room.
Wan's eyes that had been closed suddenly opened, and through the moonlight that penetrated into the room through the hollow window, she looked at the dust of the mandarin ducks playing in the water on the bed, turned her head stiffly, and saw a black shadow flashing in the room, she sat up in shock, lifted the curtain suddenly, and felt a fragrant fragrance coming to her nose, and then the whole person was confused, and fell in front of the bed, and saw a black shadow slowly approaching......
When Wan Shi woke up again, she found herself lying on a bed, her hands were cut behind her back, her feet were also tied with strings, and she couldn't hear any sound in her ears, as if this corner was forgotten by the world, she wanted to make a little sound with her throat, but the surrounding environment was quiet, she didn't dare to make a sound, she didn't even dare to make a move.
The room was very dark, as if there were no windows around, and there was no light at all, except for a lampshade placed on the pestle in front of the bed, and a candle with a subtle light could only illuminate the edge of the bed, and she could not even see what was under the bed.
The fear in his heart grew, and suddenly there was a sound of opening the door on the other side of the darkness, which made Wan Shi shocked, and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a tall figure walking into the open door, the figure looked very familiar, Wan Shi was alarmed in his heart, and closed his eyes in despair, wanting to scream, but he couldn't make a sound.
The figure stood by the door, it didn't seem to be in a hurry to come over, but closed the door carefully, a hunter had already caught the prey, and was not in a hurry to kill the prey for a while.
"Do you know why I'm looking for you again?"
The voice...... Even if it turns into smoke and dust, Wan will not forget it.
She will not forget how much damage the owner of this voice has brought her, and will not forget how cruel this person has humiliated her, that night was cold, life is worse than death, at this time it seems to be vivid to make Wan unable to move, she is bound hands and feet, unable to run, so she has to unconsciously retreat backwards.
The voice lingered in her ears like a ghost:
"The one from Canglan Yuan is looking for you today."
The voice continued, Wan Shi's eyes widened, and then he realized that the real reason why this person had arrested her tonight hurriedly shook his head, and the sound of defense as low as a mosquito and fly sounded in the quiet room where the needle fell and could be heard:
"No, no, I didn't say anything."
"Hahaha." The man suddenly laughed strangely, and after a long time he said:
"Of course I know you didn't say anything." The voice seemed to move, and Wan couldn't see his person clearly, but the luxurious hem of his clothes was so striking in the dim candlelight that she couldn't help but tremble with every movement.
Tears flowed unconsciously, last time there was a third master to protect her, so she could leave this life, but who will protect her after tonight? Suddenly remembered the dead Lu Zhu and Aunt Lan in his mind, and Wan's whole person was like falling into an ice arena, and he couldn't raise any heat.
"Since, since you know I didn't say anything, then, why, why ......"
Wan knew that he had fallen into his hands, and it was useless to say anything now, but it was still a little unwilling to let her give up resistance completely.
"Why more?" There seemed to be a joke in his voice, but it was always touching Wan's emotions, and he only heard him say slowly and ambiguously:
"If I don't make this excuse, how can I get you here? How can I do what I want to do? Hahaha. ”
Wan's thoughts are all gone.
Suddenly, there was a gust of wind in the room, and the faint candle flame in the lampshade was suddenly extinguished, and before Wan Shi could react, he felt that he was being overwhelmed by a tough figure, and his hands groped restlessly.
Wan Shi remembered the promise this person had made to the third master, and couldn't help but say angrily:
"You go away! Have you forgotten your promise to the third master? I'm the wife he is marrying, not one of those women at your mercy, you go away for me! ”
But the person on her body just continued to laugh, and his movements did not decrease at all, Wan Shi was really uncomfortable being pressed by him, and continued:
"Shen Ye, let me tell you, I'm not Luzhu Zhang Lan and them, they are just slaves and maids, but they are just concubines, but I am the mother of the third house of your Dingguo Mansion! You don't want to treat me like that and get away with it. Get out of here. ”
After saying this, the room suddenly lit up.
Wan Shi was struggling with his eyes closed, but he found that the weight on his body was suddenly gone, and when he opened his eyes suddenly, he was startled by the dazzling light source in front of him, and instinctively squinted his eyes, and after calming down, he saw the situation in front of him clearly, only to see Xie Yan standing in front of her in front of her, and the originally dark room, because the layers of black cloth on the window were revealed, so it was instantly bright.
The fear that was originally caused by the darkness turned into an inexplicable ease at this time, and the tense and resisting body suddenly relaxed, and then he could think calmly.
Thinking of her previous series of reactions, the third lady Wan lowered her head in frustration, if, if she could calm down a little more, maybe she wouldn't say that kind of thing under impulse, this time it was fake, but who could guarantee that the next time it would be fake.
Thinking of this, Wan suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Xie Yan, only to see that the man in black behind her had already moved a stool for her to sit down, looked at Wan Shi who was a little embarrassed calmly, and said with a smile:
"I'm sorry to frighten the third lady."
Although he said that, the expression on Xie Yan's face didn't mean that, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curved, as if she was looking at the biggest joke in front of her. The third lady Wan Shi hated the woman in front of her and said:
"What do you mean by that? What exactly do you want to do? ”
Although Wan's mood at this time was to directly want to pounce on Xie Yan and bite her, first, she was tied hand and foot, and secondly, she was also afraid of Xie Yan's identity, and even her anger could only turn into these two painless questions.
Xie Yan smiled again and said:
"I don't want to do anything, third lady, please rest assured. They are all the people of the eldest prince, and they will not talk about today's events. The reason why I did this, the third lady should know, you didn't tell me the truth, did you? ”
Sure enough, after Xie Yan said this, the person who was acting in front of her before lowered his head and retreated, in the dim environment before, she looked at the figure of the person who looked like Shen Ye of Dingguo, and he was dressed similarly, but now after daylight, it doesn't look like it, where is there still a shadow of Shen Ye of Dingguo Gong, and she can't help but lament her irrationality before.
And she looked around, this must be Xie Yan's place, no matter how she struggled and shouted, no one else would come to save her, if she didn't cooperate, Xie Yan imprisoned her here, or went further, killed her, and no one would know.
"I don't know what truth you want to hear."
Wan Shi thought that he was threatened by others so carelessly, and it was difficult for him to feel better, and his tone was unconsciously rushed.
Xie Yan was unaware of it, not affected by Wan's bad mood at all, and said leisurely:
"Since the third lady doesn't know, then what I ask, what do you answer." Xie Yan didn't give her a chance to refuse, and then asked a few questions and said:
"What is the relationship between you and Shen Ye? He used to treat you like me? When did it happen? Do you still have a connection with him? ”
A series of questions came out of Xie Yan's mouth, and such an insulting thing came out of her mouth, as if it was, 'Have you eaten?' This kind of grade of words is ordinary, listening to Wan's heart beating drums, hating Xie Yan's open-mindedness and disregarding the reputation of others.
