Zhao Shuxuan glanced at Ji Ye, who was standing on the side, Ji Ye understood what she meant, so he retreated outside the screen and waited. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Rou'er's hand trembled slightly, but her expression seemed much calmer.
Zhao Shuxuan said: "Can you tell me what happened that day?" ”
Rou'er was extremely reluctant to recall the events of that day, and even though it had been so long, she could still remember the strong smell of blood. The girl sitting in front of her had been waiting for her to speak for a long time, although she was not half impatient, but the innate grace and nobility of her body made her dare not slack off at all.
Rou'er closed her eyes slightly, sorted out her emotions, and then slowly spoke: "That day, I entered the Aiwan Pavilion with a drink as instructed, and that person chose a whispering girl to serve that night, so he didn't go to the Flower Moon Pavilion. She stopped, the fear in her eyes deepening, and the thrilling images crashed into her mind once more.
Zhao Shuxuan asked, "Is the whispering girl the victim?" ”
Rou'er nodded slightly, and when she mentioned the whispering girl, her eyes began to reddened slightly, and in a short time her eyes filled with tears. "Whispering Girl...... The whispering girl was really nice to me. The whispering girl in her memory always has a slight smile, and whenever she speaks, she is soft, and whenever she is worried about the silver taels, the girl will always allocate some silver taels to herself. However, such a kind person has suffered such a tragic thing.
"The Whispering Girl was sold to Aunt Xiao when she was very young, and she was born with a very high talent for music theory, so her piano skills are second only to the Qixi Girl. Regular customers who come to Huamenlou should know that the whispering girl has always been a performer and not a person, but that day I don't know what the boy was crazy about, and he forcibly raped the girl by pulling her......" Rou'er's voice was choked.
Zhao Shuxuan also roughly understood what happened, and seeing that she was speechless for a while, he took her hand and said, "I am roughly clear." Were you the only one there that day, apart from the two of them? ”
Rou'er recalled carefully and replied, "Yes, it's only me." ”
No wonder this matter can be suppressed so quickly, if Rou'er is driven away, the truth will naturally be buried in the world, and Pei Qing, who killed people, can continue to live happily.
Zhao Shuxuan frowned and said, "After the whispering girl died, did the official come to investigate?" ”
"I checked it, and I checked it many times, and when the official sent me, I was already locked up in the backyard."
Rou'er looked down at the bloodstained bracelet on her wrist, her heart ached, she gently stroked the woven bracelet, and the gentle smile in her memory seemed to be close at hand. "Everything in this world is beyond our control, and the truth will only be in the hands of those who are powerful." Rou'er's weak body suddenly became strong and powerful, but this exertion pulled the wounds on her body that had not healed, and she gritted her teeth in pain, but did not make a sound.
Zhao Shuxuan's face suddenly sank. "If you don't die, the truth will never be in their hands."
Rou'er suddenly raised her eyes, her eyes full of despair, "But what can I do?" I'm just a person living in the darkest corners, and even if I die, no one cares. ”
"If you do what I say, you won't die, only them will die."
"Them?" Rou'er wiped away her tears, and looked at Zhao Shuxuan blankly with a pair of clear teary eyes.
"Yes, but I need to know now if you're willing to wade through this troubled water." Zhao Shuxuan's eyes were firm, as if he had already made a bamboo in his chest, and he only needed the affirmative answer of the person in front of him.
Rou'er hesitated for a long time, she didn't know what earth-shattering things such a little girl could do. But there is a strong voice in her heart that keeps asking her to believe in this girl, and she has no other choice but to believe.
After a long time, Rou'er nodded slightly.
Zhao Shuxuan was obviously not satisfied with her response, at this moment, her eyes were even more gloomy, Zhao Shuxuan looked at Rou'er fixedly, and said word by word: "What I need is 10,000 determination, unless...... You don't want to save your brother anymore. ”
Rou'er said excitedly: "No! Don't hurt my brother, I'm willing to do anything. Not only for my brother, but also for the whispering girl, I really don't have any confidence in all this, what can a person like me do? ”
A light smile appeared in Zhao Shuxuan's eyes, "There are so many things you can do." ”
"Say it." Rou'er swept away her previous cowardice, and her tone was extremely firm.
Zhao Shuxuan held one of her hands, added some strength, lowered her eyes and looked at the bracelet on Rou'er's wrist, and said slowly: "I want you to go to Annan Tea House, find the owner of this tea house, and explain all the things you have experienced during this time, and the most important thing is to provide the name of the murderer." ”
"Why didn't you ask me to report to the government?"
Zhao Shuxuan looked at her deeply, and then said, "Do you think the government doesn't know who killed the person?" ”
Rou'er was shocked in her heart, opened her eyes in disbelief, and asked, "The people from the official mansion ...... They know? ”
"Don't you know the identity of the person who killed the whispering girl?"
Rou'er thought about it, shook her head again, and looked at Zhao Shuxuan, waiting for her to solve her doubts.
"She is the only son of Shangshu of the Criminal Department."
Although Rou'er often sees that son come to Huamen Tower, Aunt Xiao always calls him "Pei Gongzi", except that she knows that this Pei Gongzi is generous, she doesn't know anything about him. Unexpectedly, he is actually the son of an official, so he can escape the law of the country and hide the truth?
Rou'er opened her mouth several times to speak, but she didn't say it, her expression was a little flustered, and the firm thoughts she finally had disappeared for a while.
Zhao Shuxuan knew her concerns, so she smiled, "You don't have to worry, since I came to you, I must have done a good strategy, and you will be fine." ”
"Okay." Thinking of her brother's comfort and the tragic death of the whispering girl, Rou'er decided to give it a go, and gritted her teeth in response.
Zhao Shuxuan got a satisfactory result, and this visit was not in vain. She called Ji Ye and asked, "How much is the injury on Miss Rou'er's body?" ”
Ji Ye stood aside solemnly and replied: "Sixty percent, the master will send someone to give medicine to the girl every day, but the girl's flesh injury is more serious, and she can't get better quickly for a while, and it still needs time to recuperate." ”
Zhao Shuxuan patted Rou'er's hand, then got up and looked at the girl in front of her in a condescending manner, and said softly: "Then these two **** will take care of their bodies first, and I will come to you again in two days, and at that time, I will tell you the details." ”
After speaking, Zhao Shuxuan turned around the screen and left, and Ji Ye also left the room after him, covering the door.
