“…… You crazy woman! Qu Jie screamed hysterically, she pointed at us, and couldn't stop crying.

I glanced sideways at Jialan.

It's really a goblin, and it's really ruthless.

"Miss Qu, I am also on orders." Jialan explained this, but she didn't see the slightest apology, but a kind of schadenfreude.

Master Qu was locked in prison, trembling and shrunken, his eyes were gouged out, his eyes were covered with a thick white veil and still bright red, his feet were chopped off, he knelt on the ground, leaned on a pair of hands to support his body and moved, his tongue was cut, and he couldn't speak......

was once a good person, and when he said that he had changed like this, he had changed like this.

I haven't dealt much with Lord Qu, and I don't care what I know about him from other people's mouths, knowing that he has the intention to marry his daughter Qu Jie to the second son Yuan Jue, and in the name of assisting Yuan Jue to succeed to the throne, he has formed a party in the court and has his own power.

It's a coincidence. If it weren't for Qu Jie's selfishness and wanting to help Xiong Lie bring me into the palace, I wouldn't have joined forces with Jialan. Jialan found me several times, and finally I hinted to her to find Lord Meng, who led troops to besiege Qu Mansion, but just wiped out the forces of the Qu family and caught her off guard.

I really don't know whether to say that it is providential or man-made.

"Being smart is mistaken by being smart, you know now, why bother in the beginning." I gave this sentence to Qu Jie.

Yuan He handed over the matter of tracking down the remnants of the Qu family to Lord Meng, and for some reason Lord Meng entrusted the interrogation to Jialan, which turned around, and Lord Qu finally fell into the hands of Jialan.

"Actually, it's better not to see than to see, Lord Qu is just waiting in prison for how to die now, what's the use of not seeing." Jialan complained.

Qu Jie glared at her viciously, as if she wanted to scold.

Jialan turned her head sideways and said to me, "I really don't know why you like to be a good person so much, you want her to see her father for the last time, and people may not appreciate your affection." ”

I listened to Jialan's words, but I also smiled lightly and didn't care.

"Are you human or not! Tortured my dad like this, why can he joke like this in front of him?! Qu Jie cried loudly, and the appearance of holding Lord Qu was indeed a little pitiful?

Person?! I looked at Jialan and laughed. Jialan understood what I meant, and whispered in my ear, "Not really. ”

"What the hell are you going to do!" Qu Jie cried and asked.

"Miss Qu, I want to give you something, so I need you to exchange it for something that is equally important to you." I walked up to her.

Qu Jie looked at me with resentment.

She didn't speak, and as I expected, I reached out and didn't touch her cheek, Qu Jie turned her head away in disgust.

"Remember how you feel right now." I said to her.

She suddenly reached out and grabbed me, "Why are you doing this to me!" ”

I looked back and thought, "Then why did you do that to me in the first place?" I saw that she was stunned, and knew that she must understand what I was saying, "I don't blame you for not saving me, but why do you push me again?" ”

The expression on Qu Jie's face began to distort a little, but she still held her mouth and said stiffly, "So what, aren't you doing well now?" ”

"Don't do that," I laughed, "I didn't plan to come back when I left here, you don't have to be afraid of my presence. When you promised Xiong Lie to push me into the fire pit, did you want to let me live such a life? ”

My words poked her heart, Qu Jie gritted her teeth, but she couldn't refute it.

"Didn't you use me at that time just to get Wonhyuk to open the city gates? Don't say that you are so great, even if you just sincerely want to give me to Yuan He, for your own selfishness, you know at all that Yuan He opened the city gate, and the two armies would definitely fight, did you leave me a way to live? I said.

Aren't Qu Jie's three slaps exactly the nature she exposed after she thought I was dead and relaxed my guard? She thought I wouldn't be able to escape, so even if I was relieved, I didn't have to worry about her hidden side being exposed.

Everyone has an evil devil in their hearts.

She has always disguised herself well, and in front of her father, she is a good daughter; In front of Yuan Jue, she is the noble and generous Miss Qu family; In the eyes of others, she is gentle and elegant...... But she hated me, hated that I was alive, hated me for existing, and when she learned from Xiong Lie that if the two armies fought, I would be in the center of the battle, she just indulged her hatred and showed it.

Xiong Lie, on the other hand, is a smart man, far from being as arrogant as he seems, and he has left himself a way out, because he knows that I may not die. When Xiong Lie left my sword, he didn't let me save my life, but let me choose.

Lord Qu curled up, but made a strange sound, hoarse. I didn't understand, so I looked at Jialan.

Jialan shrugged her shoulders, meaning she didn't understand either.

Qu Jie hugged Lord Qu and cried so much that she couldn't help herself, "Don't, Dad...... Don't, don't leave me ......"

Lord Qu patted Qu Jie's back with his hand and pushed Qu Jie aside.

He followed my voice and crawled to my feet, looked up, and looked at me with his "eyes" wrapped in thick gauze.

I felt sick.

But he leaned down and kowtowed at my feet.

"Perhaps, he wants to beg you to spare his daughter." Jialan explained for him.

I straightened up, "Dream." ”

I turned and walked out, faced Jialan, and said, "They have seen each other for the last time, so you can watch and do it......"

Before I could finish my sentence, I suddenly heard a bang behind me. Before I could turn around, the first thing I saw was Jialan's surprised expression.

Lord Qu crashed to death in the prison.

Qu Jie really hugged his corpse this time and cried bitterly.

The movement in the prison attracted the guards outside, and Cui Xi ran in in a panic after a group of people.

"Take her first." Jialan pushed me to Trixi. "It's very unlucky to see this before the wedding."

Cui Xi pulled me to leave, I couldn't bear it, I turned around, before being pulled out of the prison by Cui Xi, I saw Qu Da Da who was covered in blood and died in a pool of blood.

“…… What a bunch of bastards. ”

Yuan He scolded the servants who knelt on the ground outside the dormitory, they were all palace people in this dormitory, "So many of you can't take care of her alone, what's the use of keeping you!" ”

I leaned on the floor, dizzy and wanted to throw up.

I don't have to look in the mirror, I can see my haggard in the eyes of Cui Xi, who is guarding and taking care of me. His face was pale, and his eyes were blank...... I was so panicked that the Imperial Doctor had been busy outside all afternoon, and I was all frightened by my sudden illness, lest Wonhyuk's anger be affected.

I heard him scolding those palace people outside, and I wanted to get up to persuade him, but I turned over, but I couldn't move. Cui Xi hurriedly stepped forward, tested the temperature of my forehead with the back of her hand, tucked my quilt, and secretly shook her head at me.

She was trying to persuade me to leave it alone.

Wonhyuk's scolding continued for a while before he stopped, and he personally walked to the side of the bed with the decoction, and Cui Xi hurriedly stepped aside. The moment the bowl approached me, I couldn't help but turn my head away.

"Be obedient, drink the medicine to get better." Wonhyuk softly reassured me, and the two of them just judged.

I grabbed the quilt and covered half of my face, not wanting to drink the thing.

Yuan He sighed, "I don't let you meddle in this matter, that's the reason, these crazy people are not worth your mind for them at all." I know that you are kind-hearted and want Miss Qu to see her father for the last time, but how can these people get your affection, this is just like what happened to Mrs. Li at the beginning. Lord Qu, after all, I still scared you in such an aggressive way, didn't I? ”

The more I listened to him, the more helpless I became, so I opened my eyes and poked my head out to look at him. "You mean, Lord Qu did not hesitate to die in front of Qu Jie, and he also deliberately ......"

That's right, he did it on purpose, not hesitating to die in front of his own daughter, but also to curse us.

At nightfall, I sat alone on the steps in front of the temple.

Yuan He made a decree today, posthumously honoring Mrs. Ruyi as the queen mother, and Mrs. Fengyun as the concubine Yun. It's just that in the edict he descended, there was no mention of another person in this palace, Mrs. Qimo. Mrs. Qimo, who was once high-profile and surprised, seems to have been forgotten like this.

"Sister."

I heard the voice and turned around, Hou Yue was dressed in a guard brocade robe, standing not far from me, and when he saw me turn around, he ran over with a smile and sat next to me.

"How could you ...... now," I remembered, "have you been transferred here from today?" ”

"Well," Hou Yue nodded vigorously, "From today onwards, tonight it will be my turn to keep vigil." ”

I see, I understood, nodded slightly, and came back to my senses.

"Sister, why are you here by yourself?" Hou Yue was curious.

"I'm not here by myself, who else am I going to be with?" I asked with a smile.

"That's not what I meant." Hou Yue was busy explaining, a little flustered, as if he was afraid that he would talk to me about some embarrassing things. "I mean, it's so late, you're ......"

"There are some things you want to think about, and one can calm down." I certainly know what the question he is carefully avoiding is.

"Is it Qu Jie's business?" Hou Yue didn't have any scheming at all.

"How do you know?" I'm curious.

"Because, it's spread all over the palace." Hou Yue always knew a lot of things that were circulating in the palace, "You took Miss Qu Jiequ to see Lord Qu...... Sister, are you alright? I heard that there were a lot of imperial doctors coming and going here in the afternoon, and I heard from the people in this palace that you were frightened. ”

"Do you believe it?" I asked him rhetorically.

"I don't believe it." Hou Yue insisted that after hearing this, he not only did not doubt it, but also firmly believed in the fact that I was not frightened.

It made me a little happy, "Why? ”

"Sister, you only have the share of scaring others, how can you be scared by others." Hou Yue turned out to be deliberately playing tricks on me.

I was angry and ignored him, and Hou Yue hurriedly told him to forgive.

"But, what's wrong with you, sister? When I saw you when I came here just now, something was really wrong. Hou Yue still didn't forget to ask after laughing and making trouble.

"Perhaps, I have known too many tragedies recently, after experiencing life and death, I thought that the most rare relatives in the world, but I didn't want to be so helpless with many fates around me." I let out a long sigh and expressed the unhappiness in my heart, then looked at Hou Yue and suddenly thought, "By the way, it seems that I have never heard you talk about your family." ”

"Isn't that what happened in my family?" Hou Yue smiled a little reluctantly, which made me wonder if I had said something wrong, but he was very cheerful, "What is the world outside now, sister, you also know, you can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes, people are panicked, and being able to survive is the most important thing." I have a son in my family, I have a half-sister, after my sister's father died, my mother took my sister to remarry my father, and then I had me, and the family has some land, and the food planted is enough for the family to eat, and more can be taken to the city for some money. I remember when I was a child, I often got up very early and followed my father to the market to sell grain, and when the grain was sold, my father would buy me something delicious, and then we would go to the cloth village and pick up a large piece of the best flowered cloth, my mother was very skillful, she could make that large piece of flowered cloth into two beautiful clothes, and she and her sister would each ......

"That sounds like your family is doing well." I'm envious, this is probably the most heartwarming story I've heard in the past few days.

"But later, my sister got married." Hou Yue said, inexplicably a little sad, "She married the eldest son of a neighboring village, the family was in good condition, and then my sister died, and the people in the village said that it was my brother-in-law who beat my sister to death, and they often saw my brother-in-law beat my sister to the ground." My mother fell ill because of this, and my father was not convinced, so he sued the officials in the city, but their family bought the government and not only rejected my father's complaint, but also beat him to a serious injury, and not long after, my father went. After my father left, my mother and I were left in the house, and the land was barren and there was no food. It happened that the top came to recruit soldiers, and my mother asked me to be a soldier, saying that it was better to die on the battlefield than to starve to death at home. I went to join the army, and when I went home to visit my family the next year, I learned that I had hanged myself not long after my mother had sent me away......

I gasped, and it was already winter in my heart. After Hou Yue said this, he turned his head to look at me and smiled, after all these years, I could see that he had let go, not only was he not ruined by resentment, but he was more kind, which made me ashamed.

Cui Xi trotted all the way to the dormitory, and not long after, she ran out again, looked around and saw me, and ran over with a quick pace.

"Girl, Miss Qu is dead." Cui Xi glanced at Hou Yue, and although she was a little puzzled about him sitting next to me, she still told me very nervously. (To be continued.) )
