Chapter 131: There are tears in the pearl
"With an identity like me, it is already the best destination to be able to marry into a family like a family and be a concubine. I naturally understand my identity, how dare I compete with Mrs. Wei, the power and financial resources of the Wei family are not lost to become a family, Master Cheng and Mrs. Wei are childhood sweethearts and have a deep relationship, not to mention that people like me can covet it, I really don't want to do anything, I just think that I can live a good life, I can make my father and mother not so hard, so that my brother can marry a daughter-in-law. She burst into tears, and it seemed that she was still haunted by the past few years.
I couldn't see anyone crying, but I didn't know how to comfort her, so I just learned how to do it and handed her a handkerchief. "You say, your surname is Li, right? Do you remember the night we escaped from the dungeon with you, didn't you take us around to a deserted courtyard in the middle of the city, and that was your mother's house? ”
She looked up and thought for a moment, then said, "Yes." That's my mother's house. My surname is Li, my name is Qiao'er, and my father and brother should have lived there, but I don't know why, they are no longer there, the courtyard looks deserted for a long time, and I don't know where they went. ”
"Don't worry, the place we are in now is the mansion of the prince, and the person who accompanied me to rescue you in the dungeon that day was the second son of the king, I think if I ask them to help me find it, I should find your family. But the most important thing now is to find out what happened to you and the family, if you were locked up in the dungeon at the beginning of the birth of the son, then I am afraid that it has been more than ten years now, and your family will naturally move out of there in every way. But if you don't figure out what's going on with you. I'm afraid that the people who have a family won't just forget it, even if we can protect you for a while, we may not be able to protect you for a lifetime, and the people who have a family can take you away again when we don't know it, and you don't want to be locked up in a dungeon again. "Getting married is far more complicated than I imagined, and what happened in it still needs to be remembered by her, a person who has been through a qiē experience.
"I'm ......" she suddenly became a little excited, and said that she was about to get up, but she fell on the bed again with a dizziness. She found that she was powerless to break free, so she had no choice but to continue. "Ten years?"
Didn't she know how long she had been locked up? Did it take more than ten years to hear that there was such a big reaction? "Isn't it? Don't you know it yourself? I remember you were locked up in a dungeon. I've heard people say that three meals a day are brought to you on time, so it stands to reason that you should have an impression of how long it has been. Why did your reaction ......"
"I don't know. I don't really know. Trance as if it were yesterday...... How...... How about ten years......" she cried bitterly.
I suddenly relented, "Maybe it's because you've been manipulated by magic and you're delirious." Then you can sue me. Did anything happen to you after you married into a family? I think the things that happened after that must have something to do with your experience, and you slowly reminisce, and you can think of a little more. ”
She looked up at me, her eyes rounded, tears blurring her dark pupils.
"I ...... I remember that time...... Mrs. Wei also came to see me a few times, asked me about my preferences, daily habits, etc., she treated me very kindly, and took special care of my parents, she could often sit down and chat with my parents about some trivial things, during which she sent some brocade jewelry. Until one day, my younger brother went to the street, I don't know who I heard it from, it is said that Mrs. Wei was born prematurely at night and gave birth to a baby boy, but the whole Chengfu did not reveal the slightest news, but I didn't expect that Yiqiē still according to the original arrangement, the people of the family sent auspicious clothes, and arranged for me to pass the door as the original set day. The people in the family asked Mrs. Chengfuwei about giving birth, but the descendants of the family replied in a unified voice that Mrs. Cheng did not give birth. Later, according to the appointed day, I passed the door. ”
"On the wedding night, I didn't see the lord coming. The next man came and knocked on my door and told me that Mrs. Wei was sick and infected with the wind and cold, and the lord wanted to stay at Mrs. Wei's place to guard. But on the second and third days, I didn't expect this situation to last for more than half a month. The lord and the lady are affectionate, and they have no bad treatment for me, and the descendants of the family treat me respectfully, and often send some food to my home, just two days after the door, my father and mother also came to the house to visit once, talking about my marriage, they are also full of joy. But one day half a month later, from after noon, I could feel what was happening in the back garden of Chengfu, there were always doctors coming out and going in, and the people were also in a hurry, I went to ask, but they told me that I was okay and wanted me to feel at ease. ”
"In the middle of the night, the maid knocked on my door and told me that my lord was looking for me. I hastily tidied it up and followed the maid. But...... But that place...... It's a really weird place. ”
"When I got there, the maid said something to the man at the door, and then turned her head to tell me. He said that the master had something to do and asked me to wait there, and the master would be back soon. I thought to myself that after all, it was in the Cheng Mansion, and when the master went out, it was nothing more than a guest who arrived to meet the guest, or went to Mrs. Wei's, so he sat there and waited...... However, as I waited and waited, I felt more and more sleepy, and there was a very peculiar fragrance, very fragrant, very good, and I smelled and smelled, and I felt even more sleepy. Propping himself up on the edge of the table, he took a nap......"
"I really didn't think of it...... I...... I really ......" she grabbed her hair with her hands, as if the memory she remembered had plunged her into excruciating pain, and she tried to struggle out of it but could not do anything.
I stepped forward to stop her from continuing to hurt herself, "Take your time, you can say whatever you think, it's okay, don't rush." ”
"I don't know, if it's real or if I'm dreaming, I remember waking up once...... I really seem to ...... I...... I really woke up once...... I felt that I was lying there, I was lying there, it was strange, it was scary, it was pitch black, there were a few oil lamps, but I couldn't see anything, when I turned my head sideways...... When I turned my head sideways...... she was suddenly startled, trembling all over, and her words began to become incoherent. She lowered her head, hugged her legs tightly, and buried her face between her knees.
I was just about to say, or I'd be here today.
She looked up sharply, and a pair of eyes looked at me in horror, and I was so uncomfortable that I only heard her say.
"Mrs. Wei's corpse ......"
I gasped.
She continued, "When I turned my head to the side, I saw Mrs. Wei's body right next to me, and I ...... Just next to me...... Her face turned pale. There was a chill all around. I touched her hand, but she didn't have any warmth. I know she's dead, it's been a long time...... But she was right next to me, and I was so scared...... I'm really scared......"
And then. The door opened...... I heard the door open. Someone walked in. It's two people. It was only when they walked up to me that I could see that one. It's Master Cheng, and the other is ...... It's ......"
She didn't say a reason for a long time, I thought about it and asked her, "Who is it?" Have you ever seen that person? ”
She thought about it for a long time, but she shook her head, and I saw that her dejected appearance was not pretending, so I didn't ask any further, and she was sad for a while before she slowly spoke again, thinking in pieces.
"I don't know what they did, I beg them, I beg the master...... But he was indifferent, and the woman stood in front of me, holding a talisman and muttering something that I could not understand, and then, and then I saw her looking at the master, and the master, and the master came to me with a dagger, and I was afraid, and I begged him to let me go...... But the lord told me, and the lord told me...... He said that only I can save my wife, and he said that he couldn't help me, and when my wife came back to life, he would definitely treat my family well...... He said he would treat my family well...... He slashed my wrists and ankles with a dagger, and I felt the blood flowing out, and I felt so cold, and I felt that the blood in my body was about to run dry...... I cried, I cried and begged him...... But...... He ignored me, the woman, the woman was still thinking about something...... Suddenly......"
Suddenly, I saw Mrs. Wei next to me sit up, and I was frightened...... Mrs. Wei...... Mrs. Wei she sat up suddenly, she climbed on top of me, and she began to ...... Begin...... Started sucking my blood at my wounds......"
She cried for a while, but finally calmed down again. "When I woke up, I thought I was dead, but I saw my reflection in the water, and that, that wasn't me anymore...... It's not me anymore! My face became that of Mrs. Wei, and I don't know why it happened...... At first, I was locked in the middle of nowhere, but one time I slipped out, and I heard the baby's cry, and I guessed that it was the son born to Mrs. Wei, and he and Mrs. Wei should be together. I followed the sound to find ...... But I saw it...... Mrs. Wei...... No, it's not, that's not Mrs. Wei...... That's, that's ...... I don't know who it is, but she has my face, my face......"
I saw how she wept silently, and knew she had done her best. It's hard to remember so many things. "So, after that they locked you up in a dungeon? So why did you become insane? ”
"It's that woman, that, the woman who entered the room with the old man, and she suddenly appeared in the dungeon, and I only saw a red light in front of me, and I didn't remember anything, and then, I occasionally felt it, I could hear the voices outside, I could see people, but I couldn't speak, I seemed to be getting very strange, and I didn't know what I was doing. But I feel that what I say and do is not what I think. But I had a feeling, and I found it dark all around, and I was locked up in a cold, damp place, and it was stuffy. Occasionally, I could hear movement and someone coming, but what I saw was different from what I remembered, and I felt that sometimes the people who came in looked at me very strangely, like they were looking at a monster, they, they ......"
"During the time you've been locked up in the dungeon. Has Mrs. Wei ever visited you? "If Mrs. Wei has a conscience, it is impossible not to have visited her once, but even if Mrs. Wei has been there, does she remember it?
She thought about it for a long time, but nodded uncertainly.
Before I could react, she had already let go of the brocade quilt in her hand, stumbled off the bed, and hugged my arm, "Girl, I know, you are also a capable person." I remember the way you opened that door that day, can you help me change back to the way I was, the way I am now, even if they find my family, they won't dare to recognize me. ”
"I'm not sure if I can help you, but I'll do my best. I think that the woman who put you with Mrs. Wei should be a witch, probably because Mrs. Wei has reached the end of her life, so she will swap the two of you and let Mrs. Wei continue to live in the world as you. But they shouldn't have expected that because of your obsession with the world, you didn't die because of it, but since they just drove you crazy and didn't kill you, it can be seen that they didn't really want your life. The shrine maiden must not take a person's life recklessly, or she will die due to a curse. I told her what I could think of, "However, if Mrs. Wei lives as you, then how can her brother and niece Biluo hide it and continue to walk around?" Unless they knew what was going on, how could the mother's family, as the former lady, have such a close relationship with her who continues to live in the world as the new lady with your face. ”
In this way, Biluo is not completely innocent.
It's just that a mere mansion of a wealthy family can't reach the status of the palace, and it's already messed up like this, and human nature is really a very complicated thing.
"Neon." Yuan Jue shouted outside the door, and then pushed the door open.
He looked at me, then at the woman. I stretched out my hand to help her up, understood what Yuan Jue meant, helped her to the bed and put her down, covered her with a quilt, and said to her, "You were so tired just now, take a rest, I'll go out and have a look." Don't worry, I'll help you. ”
She nodded and closed her eyes.
"What's wrong?" I followed Yuan Jue out of the room, closed the door and asked.
Before Yuan Jue could answer, Yuan He had already walked over from the direction of the front hall, only to hear him say, "Something happened to Chengfu." Just now, the family came and invited the imperial doctor in the house, and the little guy who sent the imperial doctor over had returned, saying that something had happened to the Cheng family, and Mrs. Cheng died suddenly. ”
Mrs. Cheng died of illness.
I suddenly felt a chill all over my body, and I unconsciously looked at Li Qiaoer's room. This one woke up, and the other one died, the two of them were too coincidental in this time, but if you go further, Li Qiao'er suddenly had a fever and fainted when Yuan Jue and I sneaked into the palace, at that time, I had hidden from Yuan Jue, deliberately extinguished an oil lamp, and broke the nine-star lamp array.
It turned out that my guess at the time was not wrong. (To be continued.) )
