Misty Radiant could see Shui Lingshuo's impatience. When he saw that she was about to walk away, he hurriedly called her again: "Shuo'er, I have set up a house near each of the plots of land you bought, and we will go and live together one by one when the time comes." β
Shui Lingshuo couldn't help but be a little moved when she heard what he said. She doesn't feel at home in Shangshu Mansion, and she doesn't have it in Huguo Houfu. It is only when she is with friends who are in trouble and friends that she can feel the warmth of home.
Seeing that she was tempted, Fog Hui added, "I'll go in a few days!" β
How many days will it be? Shui Lingshuo suddenly retreated from this impossible fantasy. She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't laugh a little, "In a few days, you should go back to your own business, as for those mansions, I will live for you one by one." β
"Shuo'er, I'm serious!" Seeing Shui Lingshuo say this, Wu Rui immediately frowned. He has made up his mind not to be the prince, what will he do when he goes back? Compared with the cold prince's mansion, he prefers to be with her, even if it is a meal and a camp, it is warmer than the royal compound. Besides, he has endured hardships outside all these years, and he is not afraid of any hardships of running around and working hard. As she said that day, it is also a kind of happiness to find a secluded place to farm in troubled times. I have known her for more than two years, and if he had decided early, she would not have married someone else. I thought she was marrying a fool, but I didn't expect this fool to be that person.
He was unwilling, obviously she he knew first! Especially last night, after experiencing a life-and-death disaster, he felt even more helpless and boring as the prince of a country. Why did he give away the woman he had been in love with for a long time for the sake of the righteousness of his family and country? !
"If you say it seriously, will it come true?" Why didn't Shui Lingshuo understand what he meant? But so what? Her biggest purpose at the moment is to find out the person who harmed her in her memory, and the key to this is in this Protectorate Mansion, and she will not be able to leave with him no matter what. Yes, freedom and making money are her favorites, but if she doesn't solve the stalk in her heart, she won't be really happy in her life.
After being silent for a long time, Wu Rui said again: "Then you can go back to Lanyou Country with me, okay?" He only thought that Shui Lingshuo refused to agree because he was afraid that his father would blame her, so he thought that it would be better to take her back first and then slowly plan to leave, after all, it is much easier to do many things if you are prepared.
The words of refusal were too cruel for Shui Lingshuo to speak. She poked his sleeping hole with a needle. She hadn't told him about her purpose in coming to the Protectorate Mansion, but she didn't want to say it either. She doesn't want others to do it for her, even if this person is better with her. The person in her previous life, she didn't want to mention it to anyone. Since she doesn't expect love to be a trick on people, why should she use this kind of feelings to harm others?
She helped the fog to sleep again, but listened to Yun Hongyi again: "Why don't you agree to him?" For that thing, you don't even want a so-called lover? Obviously, Yun Hongyi still remembered what she said at that time, and she told him that she and Wu Rui were good friends.
"It seems that you are quite powerful, you have only been sealed for so long!" Shui Lingshuo turned her face to look at him with a questioning look, and couldn't help laughing, "Maybe you should be happy, I'm not interested in him, you will have more chances!" β
With that, she walked out of the room. Yun Hongyi always looks like she sees through her, and she doesn't like this feeling very much.
She immediately went out of the yard again, but she didn't have long before she was stopped by Liu Xiying again.
Liu Xiying didn't pretend to be euphemistic this time. After a few words, she dragged Shui Lingshuo to the carriage, and she had only one purpose: to rob Leng Yue back.
"Sister-in-law is a smart one, when you drag the prince and them for me, I will be responsible for getting people away, and the matter is done, I will go to my brother for you to talk about it!" Liu Xiying said spit in the carriage, the corners of her mouth were so bent that she didn't close it, and suddenly sighed: "Brother is really, sister-in-law is such a delicate beauty, he doesn't know how to cherish it, every day he leaves his sister-in-law until three poles in the sun before coming out, look, you can yawn when I speak in such a voice!" β
Shui Lingshuo was too lazy to pick up her inconsequential words, and took advantage of the fact that there was still a long way to get to the "crime scene", so she hurriedly made up for sleep. Although Liu Xiying's purpose is not pure, it is indeed much better for Leng Yue to fall into her hands than in Yun Bohao's hands.
Liu Xiying looked at the pot at this time, and did not forget to protect the one in her own bowl, and after nagging about her ambition and perfect plan, she was busy coaxing Hongyu who was kneeling beside her. In short, she sang a lullaby all the way to Shui Lingshuo.
Because of the seriousness of the matter, the Jiyue Tower, where the accident occurred last night, was completely confined, and the entire street where it was located was guarded and patrolled by officers and soldiers. The open-air display table outside the Jiyue Building is now used as an interrogation platform, and several big figures in charge of investigating the case sit on it.
Shui Lingshuo was told the identities of these bigwigs long before they got into the carriage. The crown prince Yun Bohao is indispensable, and the other four are Huang Youde, the secretary of the military department, Lin Mu, the third elder of the Taifu family, Che Zhufeng, the commander of the forbidden army, and Shui Lingshuo, the secretary of her father's department, Shui Fanzhi.
There are five big names in total, three of whom are related to Shui Lingshuo. The prince is her eldest brother-in-law, Lin Mu is her second brother-in-law, and Shui Fanzhi is her father. Therefore, Liu Xiying wanted to drag her to rob people together.
It was nearly noon, and it was the height of summer, the sun was scorching everything in the world, and there was no trace of wind, and the air was filled with a smell of dust mixed with blood, which made people feel both suffocated and disgusted.
Below the main trial table were several makeshift torture racks, on which more than a dozen prisoners hung like dried fish, one of whom was Leng Yue.
Leng Yue, like the others, her hands were tied to the torture rack, and her whole body shook lifelessly like an abandoned dollβthe executioner next to her was beating her over and over again with a whip dipped in salt water.
"Stop!" Getting off the carriage, Shui Lingshuo drank heavily.
The executioners paused the whips in their hands and looked at Shui Lingshuo. On a hot day, even the executors feel very hard.
Everyone on the interrogation table also looked at her in unison.
"Keep fighting!" Shui Fanzhi was the first to speak, and when he saw that the executioners started to move again, he looked at Shui Lingshuo again, "Shuo'er, what are you doing?" He sat there majestically, and his voice was also full of majesty, and he looked like a ruthless Qing official.
"Is the father going to directly kill these witnesses, so that his daughter can feel at ease from now on?" Shui Lingshuo took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears as she spoke.
Shui Fanzhi was stunned, and stood up, "Evil barrier, what nonsense are you talking about?!" β
