If it weren't for Nan'er to talk about it, Xie Zhen would have forgotten that there was still a maid in Xie Mansion.

"Dead?" She paused in her hand to pick up the pen.

Nan'er looked worried, "Yes! Fished ...... from the well this morning."

"Wait." Xie Zhen interrupted her with words, turned to the nurse who was waiting for Xie Jue on the side, and said, "Hold the young master down." ”

The nurse was listening to the conversation with her ears open, but she didn't expect the sixth lady to ask her to take the young master to avoid, Rao is heart was a little depressed, but in the end, she still complied with it, and the little young master retreated unhappily with her babbling.

In the past few days, Xie Jue has come to Xie Zhen to play here every day, saying that it is playing, but in fact, it is just Xie Zhen copying the medical scriptures in front of the bookcase, and Xie Jue is sitting on the carpet eating dates, but it is not noisy or noisy, and it is surprisingly well-behaved.

It's a kid after all, although he can't understand it yet, but don't let such an unfortunate thing collide with him.

Xie Zhen waited until the nurse was far away before raising her hand to signal Nan'er to continue.

Although Nan'er is not close to Hongling, she is also a maid and has the origin of being exchanged before, so she is also a little sad when she hears the news of Hongling's death.

"I heard that the maid who was on duty last night had never seen her, and I thought she was hiding somewhere, but I didn't expect someone to fetch water this morning, and the well water that was brought up was red, and then I found that there was a corpse in the well, and I pulled it up to see, although the body was swollen, but I could barely see that it was Hongling from the clothes worn by the corpse."

Xie Zhen let out a light "um", and her expression was obscure.

In that life, Hongling betrayed her. In this life, she was determined not to pursue her, but she didn't expect her to die suddenly like this.

Suddenly...... Why, exactly? What went wrong?

"Do you know how he died?" She asked softly.

Nan'er's expression was embarrassed, and she seemed to be a little embarrassed.

"How?" Xie Hao was keenly aware of her hesitation and couldn't help frowning.

Nan'er had no choice but to say: "Everyone said that Hongling bumped into the flower thief, because the clothes she was wearing seemed to have been torn, and there were many scars on her body. ”

Xie Zhen was surprised, a little depressed in her heart, she never expected Hongling to die in such a humiliating way.

She slowly exhaled the depression in her chest, and then asked again, "Is it a good life to be buried?" ”

Nan'er shook her head. He said gloomily: "Not yet." ”

"Oh?" Xie Zhen frowned.

Nan'er said: "The third lady said that Hongling's death was not clean, and the body could not be kept, so it should be burned clean." lest ghosts haunt you in the future. ”

Xie Zhen's eyes widened in surprise, and she didn't know what to say.

Can't keep a body? A fire to clean up? Haunted by ghosts?

It's ridiculous.

If a person is already dead, and she is not buried properly, and her body will be burned, so that the dead will not be blinded? Chill the living?

Xie Zhen's face sank like water, and he slowly got up.

"Let's go, show me."

There is a roll of straw mat at the entrance of Chongguiyuan, on which is placed the swollen and whitish corpse, which is the Hongling who died overnight.

The woman beside her wiped her tears and wailed, if it weren't for the people around her to help her, she was afraid that she would faint on the spot.

"My son! O son of my wretchedness! Why did you die at such a young age! Who killed a thousand knives killed you! ”

"My son! You serve the third lady wholeheartedly, but she refuses to leave you with a whole corpse, what a cruel heart! ”

The maid next to her hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth. Xiaoyi persuaded: "Mama Song, I know that you love your daughter very much, but now, no matter how sad you are, it won't help, some things must not be said nonsense?" ”

Where can the Song Lin family take care of anything else? Pushing away the well-intentioned persuader, he opened his mouth and scolded: "Phew! You people are not good people, what can't you talk nonsense? You don't see it lightly, it's not your daughter who dies horizontally! ”

These words were mean, and everyone present was a little displeased. Kind intentions came to persuade you, why did you still curse people?

"Mother Song."

A female voice rang out behind them.

There is only one person in this house who calls her Mother Song. Song Lin originally felt that Xie Hao was difficult to serve. That's why I let my daughter come to the third room, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen, because now I look at Xie Zhen and only feel regretful, hateful and a little closer.

"Miss Six." She cried, "Come and see Hongling! She has grown up with you so big, you can also send her off! ”

Xie Hao nodded. was about to step forward, and several people on the side hurriedly stopped in front of him.

"Miss Six, I can't go!"

"Sixth Miss, your daughter's body, carefully watched the night dream!"

"Miss Six, Mama Song has lost her beloved daughter. I feel sad in my heart, and my mind is a little confused, you don't have to take her seriously! ”

Gossip, noisy and babbling.

Xie Zhen sank his face and was about to get angry, when Song Lin's body, who was standing in front, twisted and pounced.

"Say I'm crazy? Phew! You're crazy! See that I don't tear your mouths! ”

A few people couldn't bear the brute force of the collision, and they were annoyed with a painful sigh, and they couldn't care about the pain of Song Lin's daughter, so they raised their hands and greeted Song Lin's body, and several people hugged and entangled in a ball.

Xie Zhen didn't intend to persuade, but only stepped forward and stood in front of Hongling's corpse.

The small body was disfigured by the puffiness of the well blister.

It's only eight years old...... Oh, I'm almost nine years old, but I'll never live to be nine years old, and I'll never grow up again. Even if she enters the palace again in the future, there will be no more palace maid Hongling in this world.

Xie Zhen's expression was gloomy, and her nose was a little sour.

Hongling's death made her a little confused.

She didn't take revenge, but Hongling went so young, is this a retribution for what Hongling did in that life?

Under the tree on the side, someone made a stir.

Xie Zhen raised his eyes and saw that it was Jin Yu with a frightened face.

I guess I want to come and see the excitement, but I don't dare to approach, right?

The corners of Xie Hao's mouth hooked into a mocking smile, but her eyes were wet.

The people of that life, the things of that life, seem to be all off the rails.

They are still alive now, and there is no guarantee that they will suddenly disappear one day. In this case, what is the point of not forgetting hatred.

When Xie Yu walked out of the courtyard, she saw Xie Hao standing alone in front of the corpse, her side twisted into a mass of women who were fighting, they were obviously so noisy, but she seemed to have heard nothing, just standing quietly, so quiet that it was distressing.

He took a deep breath. Walking quickly to her side, he reluctantly smiled, "Ah Zhen." ”

Xie Zhen snapped back to her senses and turned her head to look at him.

"Third brother." She smiled, tears falling quickly and quickly. It seems that he has suffered some great grievance.

Xie Yu panicked, hurriedly wiped her face with her sleeve, and coaxed gently: "What's wrong, what's wrong?" Don't be sad, don't be sad! ”

"Third brother." Xie Zhen shook her head vigorously.

Third brother, you don't understand! I don't understand that Hongling admires you, and I don't understand that she came to Sanfang for you. That's why you don't care about her death.

"Third brother." She bit her lip hard, barely holding back her tears, and called softly.

Xie Yu's heart ached dullly, this was the little girl he held in the palm of his hand! Now he cried for an insignificant subordinate.

"Hmm." He agreed softly.

"Third brother, let Mother Song take Hongling back to be buried in a good life." Xie Hao clenched his hand tightly, her eyes eager.

"Okay." Xie Yu nodded without hesitation.

"Third brother." Xie Zhen's nose was sour again.

All along, no matter what she said, the third brother said yes and never rejected her.

Xie Yu smiled slightly and held her hand. Gently hugged her.

"Silly girl, go back."

Xie Zhen nodded vigorously.

Hongling was not cremated in the end, and a roll of straw mats wrapped her out of Xie Mansion, and she actually got a good cemetery.

This was all arranged by Xie Yu, and from beginning to end, the Liu family who ordered Hongling to be cremated so as not to be haunted by ghosts in the future did not show up. The maids in Chonggui Courtyard only said that the lady was frightened and fell ill, but no one pushed open the door of the third lady's room, and there was no medicinal fragrance in Chonggui Courtyard.

Liu probably never dreamed that she had been a home for so many years. But he couldn't be the master of Chonggui Academy.

"Mother."

Xie Yu looked at the Liu family who was tied up in a ball and thrown on the bed with his mouth gagged and stared dryly, and smiled and slowly approached.

Liu couldn't help but shrink back, looking at him with fear in his eyes.

"Are you afraid?" A sneer tugged at the corner of Xie Yu's mouth.

"Why weren't you afraid when you betrayed your father?"

"I've been looking for so long. But I didn't expect you to even let go of the monk. ”

He shook his head and sighed, and Liu's eyes widened and he couldn't stop shaking.

Xie Yu smiled evilly and raised his hand.

Xilai on the side had already handed over the bow and arrow knowingly.

Xie Yu pulled his bow and arrow, and the arrow pointed directly at the door of the Liu family.

Ryu shook his head in horror, and a mumping sound came out of his mouth. There seems to be something to say.

"Oh?" Xie Yu tilted his head.

Xilai then stepped forward and took out the handkerchief from Liu's mouth.

Liu's mouth was sour, but he didn't dare to complain, but begged for mercy loudly: "Yu'er, Yu'er, I beg you, for the sake of me keeping secrets for you for so many years and raising you, spare me this time!" ”

Xie Yu narrowed his eyes.

Liu Shi cried bitterly, "Yu'er, I don't dare to call myself your mother, but for so many years, I have indeed treated you as my own son!" ”

"That's really thanks to the third lady for her nurturing grace over the years."

Xie Yu smiled coldly and slowly drew his bow.

When he was about to die, Liu was carried away by fear, and blurted out without words:

"It's not my fault that I stole men! It's not because your adoptive father wasn't a man! ”

She didn't say any more, and a feathered arrow struck her in the heart.

Xie Yu lowered his hand indifferently, threw the bow to Xilai, and slowly turned around.

"Clean up, let the night come again."

How can you say what he is?

"Little monk."

Jun Wei threw a man who was tied up and sturdy in front of Su Bai.

"You're lucky to have someone to keep you company, hey, hey, just like you, you're also a monk."

Hear the word monk. Su Bai's heart moved, and then he slowly opened his eyes, facing the frightened gaze of the man on the ground.

"Su Qing?" He was amazed.

Jun Wei looked at his reaction and felt funny, "What a coincidence, it turns out that you two still know each other!" ”

Su Bai smiled slightly, "I know, but I'm not familiar." ”

Su Qing, who fell to the ground, rolled his eyes and almost fainted.

Why is he so unlucky! Didn't you just kill a maid? Why are you still tied up like this? Didn't that little/woman claim to be the master of this courtyard, why didn't she come to save him? Now he actually met this plain white! At the beginning, he had harmed Su Bai once according to the meaning of the old guy Shi Shan, and when they met this time, where could Su Bai still be able to save him?

"Senior brother." Su Bai lowered his head and wondered, "You came here like this?" ”

Su Qing pursed her lips, she couldn't say anything bitterly, she couldn't say that she had stolen someone to Xie Mansion and killed another maid. That's how you got caught, right?

Jun Wei watched coldly for a moment, still sneering.

"Little monk, you junior brother is not small, you actually like to play with women. And it's not an ordinary woman who plays, do you think he's tired of living? ”

Su Bai's eyes widened. He suddenly remembered the handkerchief that Su Qing secretly hid when the Xie family's daughter Jingxiang was married.

Could it be which female member of the Xie family?

"Senior brother." He said in a deep voice: "What the monarch said is the truth. ”

Su Qing subconsciously shook his head.

Jun Wei narrowed his eyes, snorted coldly, raised his foot and kicked him down. The pain made him shiver, and his body curled up.

"I'm telling the truth?" Jun Wei raised his eyebrows and said.

"Yes, yes, yes." Su Qing nodded vigorously, for fear that if Jun Wei came again, then he would be completely ruined!

Su Bai sighed.

Jun Wei let out a "ha", took out a sharp cone, and gestured on Su Qing's body, but his eyes were looking at Su Bai.

"Since it's your junior brother, then I'll give you this face, you say, where should I open a hole for him first?"

"No...... Don't! ”

Su Qing's body trembled like sifting chaff. There seems to be some suspicious liquid on the lower half of the body that has soaked the pants.

Su Bai clasped his hands together and said: "If the little monk asks the monarch to stop, is the monarch willing to stop?" ”

Jun Wei smiled and said, "Naturally not." ”

Su Bai nodded, "So, please take care of yourself." ”

The implication is that he doesn't plan to intercede for Su Qing.

The plain face is like dead ashes.

Jun Wei felt bored again, he stood up and put the sharp cone back on his waist, "Come on, this son has no interest in killing people today, and I will leave you behind." ”

Su Qing immediately breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel that he had already walked in front of the Yama Palace.

But I heard an indifferent male voice say: "When did the jade-faced Hades become so soft-hearted?" ”

Jun Wei frowned. Turn around and bow respectfully.

"Young master."

Xie Yu glanced at him coldly.

"Get out."

Jun Wei was surprised, he lived in this dungeon for three years, and the young master never allowed him to go out, how could he ...... today Could it be that the young master has discovered something?

Xie Yu saw that he didn't move. I can't help but look sideways.

"What? Reluctant? ”

Reluctant to have ghosts! Jun Wei secretly snorted in his heart, subconsciously reached out and touched the sharp cone on his waist, then gritted his teeth, walked out of the dungeon quickly, and walked into the secret passage without looking back.

Xie Yu walked up to Su Bai and ignored Su Qing, who was trembling on the ground. He leaned over and lifted the shackles on his white feet, and took out a short dagger from the tip of his sleeve.

Su Bai saw a flash of cold light in front of him, and the shackles on his feet had been cut in two.

"You can go out too." Xie Yu said coldly: "Wait for me above." ”

Su Bai hesitated for a moment, and finally got up slowly.

Su Qing saw the young man with the dagger let people go one by one, but he was the only one left, and when he saw the good knife technique, he was almost crazy.

"Senior brother!" He begged in a loud voice, "I know where Master Zhenshan is being held!" ”

Su Bai's footsteps paused, he had only heard Xi talk about the situation in Puyu Temple in the past few days, and he was worried about his master's situation, but now Su Qing said that he knew......

Su Qing couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw him like this, he originally said that sentence just because he heard the rumor that Master Zhenshan in the temple helped him escape, so he wanted to try his luck, but he didn't expect that Master Zhenshan and Su Baiguo were really saved.

Xie Yu glanced at Su Bai.

"Let's go. I arrested you by mistake, and I will save you for your master. ”

Su Bai looked at him deeply, and finally didn't say anything, thanked him, stopped looking at Su Qing, and turned to leave.

Su Qing's last hope of survival was finally shattered.

The tip of the knife, as thin as a cicada's wing, slashed through his throat, light and fast.

Before Su Qing felt the pain, he watched the blood shoot out.

"Dead?"

He looked confused, and finally quietly lost his breath.

Die with a grievance or everlasting regret. (To be continued.) )
