Chapter 40

Wen Rao came to this place for the first time.

This is the place where Qi Yao went to court.

Now, it's like a hall.

The gate outside was closed, and there were six men in black standing on each side, and Xuanyi was clearly their leader.

Qi Yao sat on the top and looked at Wen Rao indifferently.

The chill in Wen Rao's heart was even worse, and she almost believed his words.

Qi Yao looked at her eyes, sneered, and suddenly picked up the brush on the case and smashed it at Wen Rao, but it didn't hit her, but just fell on her leg and rolled away.

"You never believed me?" Qi Yao asked.

Wen Rao lowered her eyes and didn't look at him, "What do you believe?" Does the emperor know that I have been demoted because of this? ”

"Because of false pregnancy." Qi Yao replied.

"Your Majesty, why am I faked pregnancy?" Wen Rao asked again.

Qi Yao was silent.

"Actually, people are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless, your emperor is good to me, like a drop of water, poured into a jar, it will always be full one day, but what have you done to me, emperor?" Wen Rao smiled.

"You've tortured me from the beginning, what are you for?" Wen Rao raised her eyes to look at him, and no longer wanted to listen to his words, "Why do you want to spoil me?" Because you have to deal with the Wen family, you don't choose Wen Ru but choose me, because Wen Ru is better than me, you are reluctant to touch her. If I deal with the Wen family for you, you will give me benefits, you think that I used to be a watery Yanghua woman, so you treat me as a β–‘β–‘ torture again and again. ”

"You acquiesced in the palace concubine harming me, so I got pregnant."

"I don't know." Qi Yao said coldly.

"Then how did I get a 'miscarriage'?" A hint of mockery flashed in Wen Rao's eyes, "That 'child' is your first child, do you not pay attention to it so much?" Or do you think I don't deserve to have a baby for you? ”

Qi Yao didn't answer her, just looked at her.

He walked towards Wen Rao step by step, and finally lowered his body and said, "You said so much, just to make me admit that I lied to you, then, Wen Rao, you sue me, what happened to you and Murong Ju that night in the cave room?" ”

There was no expression on his face, and his tone did not fluctuate, but in Wen Rao's opinion, these words were like sharp needles, stabbing her violently.

"What can be done in the cave house is naturally to do what should be done between men and women." Wen Rao's face was a little numb.

"You made a deal with him." Qi Yao shook his head, "Murong Ju said that he thought you were dirty, but he didn't touch you." ”

Wen Rao looked at him stunned when she heard this, only to feel that she had been humiliated like never before.

Both of them were silent for a long time.

But Wen Rao's ears were buzzing, as if she was in a downtown area, and everyone listened to Qi Yao's words.

Qi Yao had never considered her feelings, maybe he felt that he could not care about these things at all, but for Wen Ru, a rope that adhered to chastity could strangle her to death.

Smack-

By the time she turned around, her palms were slightly numb.

She hit Qi Yao again.

Because he could casually relay another person's insult to her.

Her tears couldn't be stopped, and they dripped to the ground one by one.

The people on both sides took out their weapons to restrain her, but they were scolded by Qi Yao.

Xuanyi looked at the two of them in amazement, and retreated silently with the group.

"Sue me, what did he do to you?" Qi Yao grabbed her shoulders and was bound to ask this question.

She is not innocent.

When he touched her, she was no longer an innocent woman.

Murong Ju said that he hadn't touched Wen Rao, so who touched her?

"Get out!" Wen Rao clenched her fist and smashed it at him.

"He's dead, I don't know what I can do, but he's not dead." A hint of gloom flashed in Qi Yao's eyes.

Wen Rao wanted to raise her hand to fan him again, but he grabbed his wrist tightly.

"Did you do that to him that night?" Qi Yao asked.

Wen Rao closed her eyes, shed another string of tears, and said, "Yes." ”

"Sue me, the only person you can rely on in this life is me." Qi Yao said, "In the future, no matter whether your qiΔ“ is true or false, I will not let you be hurt in the slightest." ”

"What you say is true?" Wen Rao stopped her tears and asked.

"Swear by the heavens." Qi Yao said.

"Okay, you swear." Wen Rao pushed him away.

Qi Yao looked at her, sighed helplessly, raised his hand and swore: "If I lie to you, the poisonous arrow will pierce my heart in the future, and it will be difficult to die." ”

Wen Rao's eyes darkened, and she bowed her head and said, "He ...... that day"

She closed her eyes, her fingers trembled slightly, and finally clenched it tightly and said, "He lied to you that day, and my first time was his." ”

Qi Yao was silent again, "What if you lie to me?" ”

"If I lie to you, I'll let my soul fly......" Wen Rao was stopped by him before he finished speaking.

"You're always tougher than me." Qi Yao's face was extremely ugly.

"You said you were going to protect me." Wen Rao didn't look at him anymore, just whispered.

Qi Yao touched her face and wiped the water on her face for her, what he wanted was not such a result, but it was the same every time.

"Yes, I did." Qi Yao said.

"What about you, what do you want?" Wen Rao asked.

Qi Yao thought for a moment and said, "I want you to never lie to me." ”

Wen Rao smiled, she had already said one just now.

"Okay." This sentence is also a lie.

"I'm going to kill him." Qi Yao said to her.

Wen Rao suddenly got into his arms and hugged him, "You kill him, don't let him appear in front of me again." ”

"Okay." At this time, Qi Yao's heart is full.

After Wen Rao left, Xuanyi led the twelve people back again.

"Your Majesty, what she said is not credible." Xuanyi said.

Qi Yao didn't answer him, but just asked, "Who found out about Murong Ju's death?" ”

"It's a slave." Among them, the shortest man in black came out of the ranks.

"Take off your mask." Qi Yao said.

She didn't hesitate to remove it, revealing Silk Tong's face.

"The slave maid was in the green building and saw him talking to another person." She said.

"I will be rewarded, go back to the Qinglou tonight, and all the news related to him will be collected." Qi Yao commanded.

Wen Rao hurriedly left the main hall, rearranged her clothes, there was not so much exposed love on her face, she took out a piece of paper from her waist bag, followed the route on the paper, and walked to the place where she got lost that day, this place is very difficult to find, when Wen Rao reached the end, there was already a person waiting for her there.

"You're a little late." Jiang Qiyu said.

Wen Rao was not only 'a little' late, but he was just said by him so lightly.

"Sorry for the delay." Wen Rao explained.

"I'm looking for you to tell you that Old Madam Zhuo is critically ill." He said.

"What do you have to do with the Wang family?" Wen Rao asked.

"World friends." He replied in just two words.

"Birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature." Wen Rao said indifferently.

"Do you know why she's like that?" Jiang Qiyu saw that there didn't seem to be any love on her face, and without waiting for her to answer, she said, "Because she received a letter from the palace." ”

"What a letter." Wen Rao's face froze, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

"It's your distress letter." He said, "After Mrs. Zhuo finished reading it, she vomited blood and fainted. ”

"What's on the letter?" Wen Rao turned around and said nervously.

"Not a word in the letter." Jiang Qiyu said, "It's the letter paper that is poisonous. ”

"There is an ancient book that records that there is a kind of tree that is full of venom and dies when touched, and the paper made of that tree is also poisonous." He explained.

"How do you know?" Wen Rao asked.

"There is this kind of tree in the territory of the oak country, and someone once tried to burn it, but the poisonous smoke poisoned a village, and someone buried it in the ground, and the flowers and plants within ten miles died.

So far, no one can cure its poison, and no one knows how to destroy it completely, but it is extremely difficult to grow, and it is very rare to cut down and seal all the poisonous trees. He paused and said: "Only the royal family of the oak country will be able to get it lightly, but we can't find out who it is now, and the top priority is to detoxify it first." ”

"What should I do?" Wen Rao knew that Jiang Qiyu was a smart person, if he didn't have a way, he wouldn't come to him first in the first place.

"It might be a little hard for you." He said.

"No matter how difficult it is, I will do it." Wen Rao said firmly.

Jiang Qiyu turned around and said a person's name.

"Xie Heng."

Wen Rao was stunned, Xie Heng had already been locked up by Qi Yao, she avoided him too much, and she didn't ask him again after that, even if she had a way to let him out, would he still help her?

No, even if he doesn't want to, she can take what he wants and exchange it with him.

"I've seen him, and he said that unless the emperor is willing to let him go forever, he won't help." Jiang Qiyu added.

This is undoubtedly bad news for Wen Rao, pleasing Qi Yao, in the past, she was very happy, but now, she doesn't want to at all.

"I'll give it a try." Wen Rao made up her mind.

"Waiting for good news, she can't wait too long." Jiang Qiyu said.

"Yes." Wen Rao raised her feet to go out, but Jiang Qiyu stopped her again.

"I want to say something to you." He said.

Wen Rao stood there, waiting for him to finish.

"I'm sorry." He lifted his foot and took a few steps closer, "If I had known that woman was you, I would not have gone so far as to tarnish your reputation." ”

Wen Rao doesn't have any feelings in her heart anymore, and some things can't be chased back, as if she once had a crush on this first son, and now she won't be so naΓ―ve.

"It's too late to say that." She shook her head, turned and ran away.

Jiang Qiyu looked at her departing back, and gradually hooked the corners of her lips.

"It's not too late, you don't count." He said.

In Junchen Palace, Wen Ru held a letter and swept the contents on it, her face sinking like water.

"Mother, what's wrong?" Yingxiu asked.

"Jiang Qiyu is back." Wen Ru said absentmindedly.

"Heavenly ...... He wouldn't still have a longing for his mother, would he? Yingxiu said worriedly.

"That's what you're worried about?" Wen Ru was a little impatient.

"Isn't this what Niangniang is worried about?" Yingxiu said cautiously.

"What kind of man do you think he is?" Wen Ru asked.

"Back then, he was the first son in our city, and later he was the first prime minister in the oak country, and now, he came back not for you, but for whom?" Yingxiu said.

"Of course he can do it for me." Wen Ru said, "But he has something more important than me, he can get me and ...... at the same time."

"And what?"

Wen Ru suddenly paused, as if she had thought of something, and a trace of deep meaning flashed in her eyes.

"Yingxiu, in fact, sometimes it's a very painful thing to not get someone's love." She said, "So, if I could go back to the old days, I would rather be happy with each other than be so tired anymore." ”
