Chapter 123: Fall
It was like a stone startling a thousand waves, and suddenly everyone in the hall looked at it with a panicked face.
The last time Jin Chen was poisoned, it had made the people of the Qin Mansion unstable, and everyone was talking about the poison, and at this time, I heard Jin Yi say so calmly, I didn't know who was poisoned, and I already believed it.
The old lady didn't expect that what was originally just two maids had evolved to such a point, and the omen in her heart before made her extremely uneasy, her voice trembled, and she raised her hand to point at Jinyi, "You all go out for me, all go out." No one is allowed in this hall except her. ”
Xu didn't know what was happening at this time, and he was at a loss because of this situation.
The old lady slapped the handrail and coughed anxiously. Everyone hurriedly retreated, not daring to stay any longer.
When it came to the hall, only Jin Yi was left standing in the middle, the old lady looked at Ying Xue beside her, and was about to order her to leave, but Jin Yi opened her mouth and said to Ying Xue: "You go and invite my father over." ”
The old lady looked up sharply and stared at her intensely. Jin Yi met her gaze indifferently, and her expression did not change in the slightest.
The old lady waved to Yingxue and motioned for her to do the same.
Jin Yi sat down on the chair next to him, without saying a word, as if he would only speak when Qin Zhili came.
The old lady gradually regained her calmness, she looked at Jin Yi, and said lightly: "Sister Yi, although I sent you to Shangxiu Hall at the beginning, now you are also back. Why are you so stubborn and refuse to let go? ”
Jin Yi's voice sounded a little hollow in the empty hall, "Although I came back, but my mother died unjustly, Xu Meixin was vicious, she did these things single-handedly, how can I not let go now?" ”
The old lady was silent.
The hall is as silent as a tomb, and by the east window stands a statue of the Goddess of Mercy made of Lantian jade, with crystal water droplets on the emerald green willow branches sliding over and falling into the jade pond at the base. The Bodhisattva's eyes are slightly drooping, his eyebrows are peaceful, and he has compassion for the suffering of all beings.
Qin Zhili had already asked Yingxue what happened on the way, and after listening to Yingxue's story, he felt slightly dissatisfied in his heart. It has been more than a month since Jin Yi came back, and he hasn't seen her a few times, one is because of the guilt in his heart and wants to avoid it.
Second, because Jin Yi has a calm temperament and is also thoughtful, she plans to find a similar family for her in the future, and she will fulfill her father's responsibility. He privately felt that since the relationship between father and daughter was not deep, it was not a good thing to be estranged.
In the courtyard of Fuxi Hall, everyone did not dare to disperse. Xu and Jinxiu sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, looking suspicious. The others were far away from the two of them, but they really didn't know where today's disaster started, and they just speculated in a whisper.
Seeing Yingxue hurriedly walked out, after a while, it was Qin Zhili who followed, Xu's face turned a little blue, and Jinxiu frowned and asked in a low voice: "Mother, what else have you done?" ”
Xu Shi shook his head blankly, if even Jinyi was no longer pursuing Jinchen's poisoning, what else could fall into her hands? When Jiang's self-hanging was talked about, there was no evidence to say that he had done it.
Seeing that Qin Zhili was in a hurry, she wanted to step forward and ask. Qin Zhili only glanced at her and Jinxiu, didn't say anything, and walked straight to the hall.
He entered the main hall and was about to reprimand Jinyi, but when he met the old lady's sharp gaze, he stopped again. Sitting on a chair on the other side, he said to her, "Mother, why are you in such a hurry to call your son over?" ”
The old lady waved her hand to Yingxue. Ying Xue retreated and closed the two doors tightly.
After Jin Yi came in with Qin Zhili, he didn't get up to salute, but just sat upright with his eyes down. Only then did she raise her head, as if she had just known that he had come in, stood up and saluted, and said lightly, "Father." ”
Qin Zhili still thought that she was embarrassed for what happened to Jinchen last time, and sighed, "Jinyi, I know that you hate your mother,...... Your stepmother. But in any case, you can't let her go for the sake of her care for her father all these years? Now Jinxiu is going to be the prince's concubine, if your stepmother's reputation spreads, it will not be good for Jinxiu's reputation. ”
When Jin Yi heard him say the word "care", she chuckled mockingly.
Then, without waiting for the two to speak, she pointed to the black string of Buddha beads on his wrist, and said in a clear voice: "This string of eighteen sons is not made of wooden mallets, but thunder vines. ”
Qin Zhili and the old lady looked at her blankly, feeling uneasy in their hearts.
Jin Yi looked at Qin Zhili's yellowed face, her voice was a little cold, and she turned to the old lady and said, "Grandmother doesn't think it's strange, why is my father's face so ugly?" ”
The old lady remembered that yesterday Xu Shi talked about the string of Buddhist beads given to Qin Zhili, and she couldn't help but feel a chill all over her body, and her words were a little vague, "He,...... He hasn't seen anything unusual in his body all these years. ”
"The thunder vine was originally a cloud bean tree that was struck by the thunder of the sky, and it was buried in countless rotting corpses for more than ten years, and the corpse poison was accumulated and condensed in the vine, and it became such a dark and translucent color, and its quality was as hard as gold and stone. Wearing it on the body, it will corrode the qi and blood texture very slowly, and gradually replace the vitality with the dead qi, and when the vitality is exhausted, even the Golden Luo Immortal has nothing to do. Jin Yi's voice was soft, mixed with Qin Zhili's increasingly heavy breathing, a little ethereal.
"This thunder vine will not only silently take people's lives, but also cause ......infertility if worn for a long time."
Qin Zhili looked at her in a daze, and after a while, as if he had suddenly woken up, he pulled off the Buddha beads on his wrist and threw them away.
The threads of the beads broke, and the thunder vine beads spilled all over the ground, jumping happily and scattering in all directions.
Qin Zhili's face was like ashes, staring at the dancing beads, motionless.
The old lady's eyes were dizzy, as if she had been old for more than ten years at once, and Jinchen's faint breath appeared in front of her eyes, and muddy tears flowed from her eyes.
No wonder, Qin Zhili has not come out for so many years, she has always regretted that he has no children under his knees, although the Xu family is no longer young, but even if he is not a concubine, it doesn't matter.
Xu's poisonous woman......
Last time, after all, Jinchen was saved, and he really didn't want to make the family restless. But she had already poisoned her husband a few years ago!
The old lady asked astringently, "Jinyi,...... Can you save your father? ”
Qin Zhili looked at her eagerly, with a hint of desire in his eyes.
Jin Yi was silent for a long time, and said lightly, "I can detoxify this poison, it's just ......" her lips were full of sarcasm, "This time, what does grandmother plan to do with the Xu family?" ”
Since the day he planned to return to Jianye, Jin Yi had already calculated how to deal with the Xu family. Who would have thought that in just one month, before he could do it, the Qin family's already sinking ambition had already led this declining family to ruin.
His own return fatally gently tossed the wheel of fate of the family,...... I hope that Aunt Jirou will know that it is the ruthlessness and unrighteousness of the Qin family, and in the end, this edifice will collapse and the foundation will rot.
