Chapter 116
After sending everyone down, the eldest princess of Gaoyang looked at Xie Yiying: "What do you mean?" ”
"Aunt," Xie Yiying looked directly at her, "the people of the Terre have returned. ”
There are witch doctors in the Yi clan who are good at medicine, Xie Yiying had doubted whether it was the effect of the medicine that had the effect of charming minds, so that the three of them committed suicide in turn, and now Youhe said that she was delirious after drinking some water, which proved her judgment even more.
In this matter, from the very beginning, there were no ghosts, some were just old people who asked for their lives for the sake of unjust souls.
"Auntie, if this matter is not resolved now, there will be a fifth person who was innocently killed, and now it seems that the person after the incident is vicious and insidious, and he does things regardless of the means, if it really comes to that time, I am afraid that something more terrible will happen."
Hearing her say this, the eldest princess of Gao Yang calmed down: "Do you think there will be anything more terrifying going on?" ”
"I don't know," Xie Yiying smiled helplessly, "Maybe it's something related to twenty years ago." ”
"Yiying," Princess Gaoyang looked at her lovingly, "Don't worry, it's just a gang of gangsters, since you are here, I will definitely bless you with safety." Naturally, I will order someone to investigate these things, so you can go back and have a good rest. ”
Is...... There's nothing you can do......
Xie Yiying saw that the eldest princess of Gaoyang was determined not to allow herself to participate in this matter, so she had to retreat.
After Xie Yiying left, the eldest princess of Gaoyang sighed and rubbed her eyebrows tiredly: "This child is very smart, if she continues like this, she will guess the truth twenty years ago." ”
"Eldest princess," the eldest girl Yuanshuang, who had been by her side, pinched her shoulders for her, and at this time there were only two of them left in the room, "That person is menacing, I'm afraid he wants to bring out all the old things." ”
"Then we're going to shut him up before that. The so-called old things should become a secret as the old people die one by one. ”
She said every word very softly, but in the end, she revealed a ruthlessness. The people who came out of the palace were accustomed to conspiracies and tricks, killing and fighting, how could there be a person who was not ruthless.
"What about us?"
"Send someone to be optimistic about the four imperial concubines."
"Yes."
Before the child, Xie Yiying fell asleep, and when it was ugly, the two maids who were on duty in the outer room were also drowsy.
It was quiet, except for the sound of insects chirping in the grass.
The guards in the palace patrol the night every half hour, and the light of the fire and the sound of neat footsteps flashed in the darkness.
After they left, the courtyard fell silent again.
The window, which had been closed, was slowly pushed open, and the moon shrouded in dark clouds, and as the window opened, only a cold wind blew in.
The curtains were blown by the wind, and the figure behind them loomed.
Then a hand reached through the window, a bluish glow on its fingertips.
When the window was about to be opened wide enough that one person could pass through it, several people hiding in the shadows suddenly rushed out and silently controlled the people. In an instant, the situation changed, but not even a word was made.
The man's hands were tied, his mouth gagged, and he no longer struggled, and he felt the finger on his waist pointing to his dead hole. As long as you dare to act rashly, I am afraid that you will die here in an instant.
So he obediently was bound.
At this moment, in the room of the eldest princess with the night pearl hanging in the four corners, Yuan Shuang hurriedly walked in, lifted the window curtain, leaned over the bed and said something in the ear of the man.
"Palm lamp."
"Yes."
And on the morning of the second day, Qingmei also leaned down in Xie Yiying's ear and reported the harvest to her: "The slave maid pretended to have accidentally sprinkled a few more footprints on the flour yesterday. ”
"Hmm......" Xie Yiying looked out through the window, it was a sunny day, and the sun was dazzling.
If they catch someone......
"There is a rockery in the Agarwood Pavilion, do you remember?"
"There is such one, but it is only decorated, and there seems to be no road on it."
Of course there is no road, what if someone walks on it and hears a sound that should not be heard. The eldest princess of Gaoyang doesn't want to grow up, if she catches someone, she will definitely not be locked up in a special place in the mansion to detain people, but she will hide in a more secret place.
She had seen the design drawings of the princess's mansion and vaguely remembered that there was another arrangement on that rockery. Now it seems like a good place to be.
The drawings were still given to her by He Fei when she came, and Zhou Jin was afraid that she would not be safe even in the princess's mansion, so he gave her enough things to protect herself at critical moments.
Thanks to the six places, in this world, there are really six things that can't be obtained.
Xie Yiying and Qingmei spared the path and secretly came to the Agarwood Pavilion, and found a secret door in a recess of the rockery.
"You stay here, I'm afraid I can't count on you when people come, just help me watch and don't let this door lock, if I call for help, don't come in, go find someone else for me."
"Yes, but ma'am, I'm afraid they'll be coming soon."
"I understand, I'll just say a few words, and I'll come up in a moment."
After opening the secret door, there is a stone staircase, oil lamps are hung on both walls of the stone steps, and the dark orange light can only illuminate the few steps under your feet, and there is still a deep place in the distance.
Walking into the depths, Xie Yiying still remembered the footsteps in the entire stone cave even though his steps were light.
There is no choice but to count on them to interrogate him all night, and there is no one else here at the moment.
After entering the stone steps, the road surface suddenly flattened, and there was a bend in front of it, Xie Yiying thought for a moment and gritted his teeth to move forward.
Then he saw the man whose hands and feet were suspended by iron cables, and two thinner iron rings passed through his lute bones.
"Are you...... Woman? ”
She froze there for a moment.
Under the black hair, a pale and transparent face that seemed to have never been exposed to the sun was raised, it was a very delicate face, the eye sockets were very deep, and it seemed to be very focused when looking at people.
"The Four Imperial Princesses." Her voice was a little hoarse.
After being tortured, she was still very calm.
"You are a descendant of the Terres."
"Yes."
"You did all these things."
"Yes." The man chuckled quietly, and the laughter echoed through the cave like the sound of a whistling wind.
Xie Yiying understood why such a strong means were used to detain this person, because she was far from being as weak and deceitful as she seemed. It doesn't matter if the means are powerful, what is even more terrifying is that it is ruthless.
"Why? What happened to the Terlies twenty years ago? ”
Xie Yiying asked the question she wanted to know the most, but the man just looked at her with interest, looking at the prey like a poisonous snake, thinking about where to start.
It felt uncomfortable to be used as food, and Xie Yiying didn't hide, "There is no god summoned by the sacrifice at all, you are doing this qiē to give someone a signal, a signal that the descendants of the Yi clan have returned." ”
"Fourth Imperial Princess," her bloodless lips curled slightly, not at all like in her dream, "Guess who the fifth person I'm going to kill is?" ”
Xie Yiying looked at her quietly, and after a moment said, "It's me." (To be continued.) )
