Section 219 Death of Xu Qingxuan
Liu has always been reluctant to believe that the bones dug up in the Yilan Water Pavilion are her son Xu Qingxuan, and for several days they have been scolding Zhang like crazy, scolding her for being a broom star, scolding her for murdering her husband, and even scolding her for not really dying, Zhang has silently endured, still doing his filial piety in front of his in-laws, and carefully soothing and taking care of a pair of children. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhang's daughters were stupidly frightened, Kun'er often hugged her mother and cried, and sometimes she would quietly run to Tingyulou to find Han Ling, Han Ling asked Zhang's to live temporarily in Tingyulou, Zhang's heart was very grateful, but since he had revealed the truth, as the daughter-in-law of the second room, where was there still a reason to live in the Tingyulou between the prince and the prince's wife - it was forced before, but now it is even more necessary to avoid suspicion.
Zhang said: "I can't trouble the prince and his wife anymore, and I can't let those people with ill intentions use this as a lever to slander the prince's wife, not to mention that I have to live my own life in the future." This thing is something I am willing to do, even if my mother-in-law is difficult to accept, but the husband is gone, do you have to deceive yourself to accept an imposter fake husband, as early as half a year ago, I felt that he was not quite right, at that time I also convinced myself that he had just changed, no longer cowardly and had his own opinions, just a little more indifferent and bad temper, but when I found out that he was going to attack his son, I felt that I could no longer deceive myself, no matter who he was, I must also let him get the retribution he deserves! ”
Zhang's words made Han Ling feel very uncomfortable, although they had successfully revealed Xu Qingxuan's true identity, but they suffered Zhang and her children, Zhang was widowed at such a young age, and the future will be even more sad, and the second master Xu and the second lady Liu seem to have a lot of resentment towards the Zhang family, and the second master Xu even thinks that it is the Zhang family that hinders his future!
What does Xu Zhi's future have to do with Zhang's? Han Ling couldn't help but feel funny.
Later, I learned from Xu Shuxuan that it was Xu Zhi who instigated some imperial historians to impeach him, and sued in front of the emperor, pointing out that Mo Xuan was the son of the Jiang family.
Why did Xu Zhi risk being wiped out with the Xu family to do such a thing, if it weren't for the benefits given to him by Yan Xiang's father and son or His Royal Highness King Yu, he could be so bold to impeach Shu Xuan?
Originally, the emperor had already doubted Shu Xuan, but because of Zhang's accusation, the news that Yan Fan was not dead spread all over the capital, and the evil things that Yan and his father and son had done were turned out of the Yang family, and the impeachment of Shu Xuan seemed so trivial and not so noticeable, and the emperor's mind was now all on the matter of searching for Yan Fan and Prince Tarot in the city, and King Yu's Mansion was now surrounded by Yu Linwei's daily surveillance, and it was difficult for even a bird to fly in.
In the end, the emperor cared about the affection of father and son, and did not tell the world that His Royal Highness King Yu escaped from the secret passage and colluded with Prince Tarot, but he had been grounded in King Yu's mansion, and privately ordered the people of Jinyi to search around.
Like the Yang family's case seven years ago, the capital is immersed in a state of tension every day, as if touching a certain string will cause an earth-shattering explosion.
And in the midst of this kind of turbulent and panicked urgency of the court situation, the imperial history above the court impeached Xu Zhi and Xu Qingxuan, saying that Xu Qingxuan had repeatedly bribed the military rations of Zhubian during the period when he was in charge of the household department, and Xu Zhi knew that his son was corrupt and bribery and did not report it, and the father and son colluded with each other and were suspected of colluding with the Tarot prince.
There is also a secret letter that impeached Xu Zhi for being unfilial, knowing that his father was sick and could not eat geese, but he gave a goose to his father as a chicken, so that his father's old illness recurred and died suddenly, and then called Xu's fourth wife Xiao Shi to his father's bedside to serve the sick, so as to push his father's death on Xiao Shi.
The cause of the death of the old Wei Guogong, Han Ling had heard Yizhi's cousin say before, and it was rumored that the death of the old Wei Guogong was committed by the concubine Xu Qian, and later Xu Qian was separated from the Xu family and excommunicated.
Now that someone has taken out this matter, Han Ling was not surprised when he heard the news, so he asked Xu Shuxuan: "Who is the person who wrote this letter?" ”
Xu Shuxuan's eyes also flashed with disbelief and anger, and he replied: "The person who wrote this letter is Xu Qian, the left servant of the household department, that is, my fourth uncle, who came to me yesterday and gave me a relic left by my grandfather, which is the full moon gift that my grandfather prepared for me before his death......
He looked at Han Ling, his eyes were clear and there was a little sadness, and he said softly: "It's a longevity lock with my name written on it, the fourth uncle said that my grandfather's biggest regret before he died was that he didn't see me grow ......up."
Han Ling asked, "Why did the fourth uncle only tell the real cause of his grandfather's death now?" ”
"The fourth uncle is single-handed, and he is also afraid that the second uncle will attack him after learning that he knows the real cause of his grandfather's death, so he has been pretending to be stupid to hide himself, to put it bluntly, it is also for Mingzhe to protect his life, and now he sees that the party faction that the second uncle is attached to has gone, so he dares to tell the truth about what happened back then!"
Han Ling thought of the day they got married, she had received a congratulatory gift from the capital that did not indicate who it was, at that time she asked many people, but she didn't know who sent it, and now that she thinks about it, it is probably the fourth uncle Xu Qian, who has been expelled from the Xu family.
"Do you really believe what the fourth uncle said? Grandfather was really ...... by the second uncle," Han Ling asked.
Xu Shuxuan's gaze became very cold and firm, and he replied, "I believe it!" Ah Ling, I seem to have a keen intuition by nature, able to judge the truth and falsehood through what a person said and restore the situation at the time, the fourth uncle said that the grandfather died at that time is exactly the same as the third uncle told me, and the third uncle also told me that my grandfather specially pulled him to the bed before he died, although he was speechless at that time, but wrote a word 'knowledge' on the palm of his hand, if I guessed correctly, my grandfather wanted to write the second uncle's name 'Zhi'. ”
Han Ling was sad when he heard this, but he was very puzzled: "Why did the second uncle do this, grandfather is his father after all!" ”
Xu Shuxuan was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "According to the third uncle, the second uncle has a strong temperament since he was a child, and he wants to win or lose with anyone, but among the four brothers, the second uncle's qualifications are the worst, and his grandfather is strict with his education, but the second uncle has always felt that his grandfather is partial, and would rather give good things to the fourth uncle than give him a concubine, the year his grandfather died, the second uncle happened to enter the office, and he wanted to stay in the capital to serve, so he asked his grandfather to find a way to find an errand for him, But my grandfather felt that the newcomers needed to be trained outside, so he asked the emperor to let him go to Nanjing, starting from a small history, the second uncle felt that his grandfather was despising him and gave up on him, and he had quarrels with his grandfather, maybe it was at that time that the second uncle had murderous intentions against his grandfather......"
Han Ling felt more and more sad when he heard this: "Maybe my grandfather just wanted to hone my second uncle's impatient temperament, but the second uncle couldn't understand my grandfather's intentions, and mistakenly regarded it as contempt for eccentricity!" ”
Xu Shuxuan also nodded, and his eyes were filled with coldness.
"If you let my grandfather know that the second uncle is now colluding with the traitors for the sake of his career, he will not know ......"
Halfway through Xu Shuxuan's speech, he pursed his lips again and fell silent, and at this time, Xiao Yun sent him a message: "Lord Shizi, Lu Yan has summoned!" ”
Recently, Xu Shuxuan has been ordering Xiao Yun to secretly monitor the Lu Mansion, fearing that the desperate Yan Fan will take this opportunity to pull Lu Bing into the water again, so Lu Yanzhao and Lu Bing's every move is already under his control.
Xu Shuxuan nodded and came to the front yard with Han Ling.
Lu Yanzhao came because of the impeachment of Xu Zhi for unfilial piety and murder of his father and covering up Xu Qingxuan's corruption and bribery, so he was naturally ordered by the emperor, but when he was about to order someone to take Xu Zhi away, another incredible thing happened.
Xu Feiyan, the second miss Xu Feiyan, who has been thinking about Lu Yanzhao alone, is also crazy, since she learned that her brother had been killed and buried in the mansion, Xu Feiyan locked herself in the room for a few days without speaking, she didn't know whether to drink or not, she was already so hungry that she was starving, she didn't listen to anyone who talked to her, it was like she had lost her soul, and when Lu Yanzhao wanted to take away her father, she suddenly seemed to be alive, and suddenly threw herself in front of Lu Yanzhao, and actually said: "Lu Gongzi, don't arrest my father, my father didn't do anything, he doesn't know anything, I killed my brother, you take me away! I beg you, take me away, whatever you ask me, I am willing to confess! ”
One sentence stunned the eyes of all the people present, and several girls were so frightened that they hurriedly shrank and didn't dare to make a sound, especially her four personal maids who hid aside as if they had seen a ghost and didn't even dare to raise their heads.
Lu Yanzhao naturally didn't believe what she said, she only said it when she was trying to protect her father, but then again, even if Xu Qingxuan was killed by her, what does it have to do with her father's corruption and bribery?
These are two different things!
Lu Yanzhao pushed her aside, and he was about to take Xu Zhi to the edict prison in stride, but Xu Feiyan did not hesitate to pounce behind him again and hugged his feet.
"Lu Yanzhao, I didn't lie to you, my brother was really killed by me, that day was the Qixi Festival, the family went out to participate in the Lantern Festival, I originally wanted to dress up carefully and then go to you, but suddenly someone broke into my bedroom, he was unkempt, his whole body was covered with blood, very terrible, I thought he wanted to kill me, or violated me, so I ...... Without hesitation, I plunged a hairpin into his chest, and he glared at me with his eyes, and without saying a word, he fell to the ground, and I saw his appearance, his appearance...... It's a bit like my brother...... No, he was supposed to be my brother, I was scared at the time, I didn't know what to do, and at that time, my brother appeared, no, it was the person who pretended to be my brother who appeared, and he said, tell me not to be afraid, he will help me take care of everything, so he dragged that person out and washed the blood that he left behind. ”
"Later...... Then he came back and told me that the man had been buried, and told me not to worry, to forget everything that night, and not to tell anyone about it, and he said that he would protect me, and I listened to him, and I didn't tell anyone, even the four girls around me, and I told them not to say a word......"
"Lu Yanzhao, my brother was really killed by me, I beg you to take me away! Take me away! ”
Xu Feiyan said this, people looked at Lu Yanzhao like a fool, Lu Yanru also had a shocked expression, at this time, he could no longer regard her as a madman, from her every word, and the remorse in her eyes when she said these words, there is no doubt, this is by no means what a madman said, that is to say, what she said is true - the person who was inserted into her heart by her hairpin is her brother, that is, the real Xu Qingxuan!
When Liu Shi heard this, he seemed to be really crazy, and ran over and slapped Xu Feiyan in the face: "What nonsense are you talking about, your brother is still alive, I said earlier, your brother is still alive, that skeleton is not your brother, it is never!" ”
Xu Feiyan cried bitterly with tears in her eyes: "Mother, recognize the facts, you don't know the jade pendant on your brother's body, sister-in-law is the person who is most familiar with her brother's body, will she admit her mistake?" Even Han Yan, the slut, after learning that the current Xu Qingxuan was not my brother at all, she also pretended to be sick and fled. ”
Han Yan really escaped, she disappeared after pretending to be sick in the mansion for a few days, and took a lot of property, as for when she left and how she left, no one in the mansion knew.
"My brother is really dead, the current Xu Qingxuan is not my brother, otherwise, why did my sister-in-law go to Dali Temple to sue him, but he wanted to hide and see no one, he was afraid of crime and absconded, and he has already admitted that he is Yan Fan, and he is the murderer who killed my brother!"
"No, my brother's murderer is my ...... It's me! Xu Feiyan Demon muttered in a daze, grabbed Lu Yanzhao's hand and said, "Master Lu, take me to the Imperial Prison!" Or you kill me, avenge my brother, avenge my brother! ”
Lu Yanzhao suddenly felt an indescribable sadness surging up from his heart, and he looked at the woman in front of him who was once lively and cheerful but now looked like a madman, and he actually felt a trace of pity for no reason.
He didn't know what to do!
Xu Feiyan laughed: "What's the matter, Master Lu, do you sympathize with me?" This really doesn't look like you, haven't you always been ruthless to me? Now it's just for you to take me to prison and let me pay for my life, but you hesitate, why? ”
Why? He couldn't answer, but suddenly he felt as if he did owe a lot to this woman, he had already broken this woman's heart and hurt it deeply, should he finally kill her himself?
"Master Lu, can you hug me one last time? I've only had a dream in my life, a dream to marry you, and in the end, I just want you to hug me, okay? ”
Xu Feiyan's request was very humble, but this humility did not make anyone look down on him, but made people feel pity.
Lu Yanzhao knew that Han Ling was watching from the side, so he refused to stretch out his hand, and he didn't ask anyone to arrest Xu Feiyan, and all the people in Jinyi looked at him as if they were watching a good show.
King Lu Xiaoyan is really a blessing! There was a woman who pursued him all her life, and when she was about to die, she wanted to be hugged by him.
Seeing the hesitation in Lu Yanzhao's eyes, Xu Feiyan smiled bitterly, she actually stepped forward and took the initiative to hug Lu Yanzhao, so Lu Yanzhao, whose brain was blank at the moment, did not resist and reject, but Xu Feiyan felt very relieved and smiled at Han Ling, who was looking at her, the smile was bitter, jealous, and envious, and in the end it turned out to be relieved and desperate......
Han Ling felt bad, Xu Feiyan's eyes, she was too familiar, she remembered how many times she had despair in her previous life in the face of King Jing's betrayal and Toyotomi Takiichi's invasion, and it was such a look.
"It's not good-" Han Ling cried out, "Stop her!" ”
At the moment when she shouted these words, Xu Feiyan actually pulled out the embroidered spring knife on Lu Yanzhao's waist, everyone thought that she wanted to kill Lu Yanzhao, so they all shouted for Lu Yanzhao to dodge, but unexpectedly, Xu Feiyan wiped his neck with a backhand - blood flew to Lu Yanzhao's sleeve like brilliant fireworks, and the hand he stretched out to stop was a step too late after all.
Xu Feiyan looked at him with tears, and said with a smile at the moment he fell: "Lu Yanzhao, I regret it, if I can start over again in this life, I will never fall in love with you again, I will destroy myself for you in this life!" If I do it all over again, I may not be as good as Yang Ling......"
"Lu Yanzhao, I hate you!"
Lu Yanzhao, I hate you!
This was Xu Feiyan's last words, and she couldn't close her eyes until she died!
Liu's daughter didn't blink a blind eye when she saw her death, this is the real complete madness, her son is gone, and now even her daughter is gone, she feels that this is all the retribution she suffered for doing something wrong back then, she first scolded Lu Yanzhao, and then ran to Xu Shuxuan, knelt down and begged: "Shu Xuan, I know that the second aunt did a lot of wrong things back then, it was all my fault, I shouldn't be jealous of your mother, I shouldn't let the midwife do something when your mother gave birth, I shouldn't take her to see the azalea when your mother was in confinement, everything is wrong with me." I deserve retribution, but I beg you...... Scarlet Smoke is innocent, I beg you to save her! ”
Hearing Liu's words, Han Ling and Xu Shuxuan's expressions changed several times, and Liu's admitted that Mrs. Nangong's death was directly related to her, and she killed Mrs. Nangong!
Not to mention that this kind of mother-killing revenge itself must not be forgiven, not to mention that now that Xu Feiyan is dead, what is the use of her begging Shu Xuan? Shu Xuan is not a god, can he still bring Xu Feiyan back to life?
Who knew that Liu Shi really said this: "Shu Xuan, I know that your mother left a pill for your sister and brother, and that pill is an elixir that can bring people back to life, your sister was useless back then, it must have been given to you, you must have it in your hand, isn't it?" I beg you to see that Scarlet Smoke liked to stick to you so much when she was a child, please take it out and save her! ”
The elixir of life? Han Ling, Lu Yanzhao and everyone here should be stunned! Is there really an elixir in the world?
Especially Han Ling, she vaguely felt as if something was not quite right, so she looked at Xu Shuxuan in surprise. (To be continued.) )
