256 Unexpectedly

The little girl answered and hurriedly ran down.

Su Siniang was the only one left in the room.

She was suddenly scared, and she had an inexplicable creepy feeling, she turned her head sharply, and her face turned pale suddenly.

"You, who are you?"

The navy blue satin robe, with a series of back patterns embroidered on the side, looks like a person with status.

Su Siniang breathed a sigh of relief.

Look at the man's gray hair and smiling face, and his heart is even more stable.

The person who can break into her house in a big way is naturally a bold person, but he can be so bold, and he is not a person who wants to poison her behind the scenes.

"The lady doesn't remember the old slave?" The man asked rhetorically.

Su Siniang frowned, "You, you are ......"

She pondered, and suddenly remembered the glance she looked up curiously when everyone knelt to pick up the driver, yes, that look.

"You're from His Majesty's side, aren't you?" Su Siniang asked, feeling inexplicably happy in her heart.

"The old slave is Shao Gong, and the lady can call this name."

"Shao Gong? Oh, I know you, you are the most face-saving minion around the new emperor, I heard that many ministers in the court are bowing down to you, you are a great person. Su Siniang said energetically.

"The lady praises it." Although Shao Gong said this, he unceremoniously sat on the main seat.

"You, what's the matter with me?" Su Siniang's words became polite and respectful at once, and she also brought tea in person.

"I heard that the lady was frightened last night, and His Majesty was very interested when he found out. It was to ask the old slave to come and ask for clarity. Shao Gong pushed the tea and said.

When Su Siniang heard this, she stood still and didn't dare to move.

Shao Gong laughed when he saw this, "Your Majesty has a lot of eyes and ears, the lady should understand, if such a trivial matter is not related to the General's Mansion, Your Majesty will not ask, but if Your Majesty asks, it will naturally be attentive, and the difference between it, can the lady understand?" ”

Su Siniang nodded hurriedly.

"I heard that the fourth lady of the Su family in the General's Mansion is an extremely smart person. The rumors are true. No wonder the lady was able to get the favor of His Royal Highness King Xuan. Shao Gong said with a smile.

Su Siniang blushed, "Shao Gong said with a smile. ”

Still, she was afraid to say it.

Last night's incident was no child's play, the granddaughter of her relatives killed her grandmother. If this gets out. Don't say that Su Qi can't survive. It's that their entire general's mansion is afraid that it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the imperial capital, as a member of the general's mansion, she still understands the truth of both prosperity and loss.

Su Siniang held the tea cup. Taking a small sip, he sipped the fragrant tea slowly and methodically, without speaking.

"What, does the lady dare not say it, or does she not want to say it?" Shao Gong asked.

Su Siniang was stunned when asked.

"If the lady doesn't dare to say it, then she thinks that Shao Gong's master is unreliable, if you don't want to say it, the reason for this has to allow Shao Gong to guess more thoughts, lady, what do you think if our master knows?"

Don't dare, I don't believe it, but I don't want to, but I am suspected of complicity, but no matter which one it is, it is difficult to protect her life when the new emperor knows that she Su Siniang.

Su Siniang's face suddenly turned pale.

"The marriage contract between the lady and His Royal Highness King Xuan is the decree of the Queen Mother, in a sense, the fourth lady is already a person from the Xuanwang Mansion and the daughter of the Su family, which means that anything that happens to the Su family has little to do with the fourth lady in the eyes of His Majesty, not to mention how much our Majesty protects Su Qi Niangzi, the fourth lady should be obvious to all, the truth of love and Wu, the fourth lady can understand?"

In other words, the reason why the new emperor sent Shao Gong around him to inquire was to better protect Su Qi and protect the General's Mansion.

Fang Cai Shao Gong also mentioned her marriage contract with His Royal Highness King Xuan, that is to say, in the eyes of our new emperor, she Su Siniang will be a person from King Xuan's Mansion sooner or later, and it is only a matter of time before she gets married.

Su Siniang's eyebrows and eyes lit up.

But as soon as she thought of Chu Qing's icy words, Su Siniang immediately praised her face.

"Shao Gong Mingjian, it's not that Siniang doesn't want to say it, but she doesn't dare......" Su Siniang then poured out all the thoughts on how the Chu Qing girl threatened her with a dagger on her neck, and how to say that she could be made to die at any time.

Shao Gong's face was calm, with a shallow smile, and when Su Siniang finished speaking, he said softly, "Your Majesty knows these things, don't worry about it." ”

What, the new emperor knows?

Su Siniang's eyes widened.

"The lady may not know that Chu Qing was originally given to Su Qi by our majesty, in order to protect her well, and the things that the lady worries about are all trivial." Shao Gong then added.

Su Siniang's eyes widened even more when she heard this, and it took a while to understand Shao Gong's words, and she breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It couldn't be better if that's the case!" Su Siniang suddenly smiled, "I was really scared last night, I actually saw it, I saw it, I saw ......it, I saw

Su Siniang babbled about how she went to Changfeng Hall to send white fungus bird's nest, and then how she saw Su Qi kill Mrs. Su in the pavilion in the back garden of Changfeng Hall, and finally how she was threatened by Chu Qing and said it one by one, and at the end she didn't forget to add: "Please also ask Shao Gong to convey it to Your Majesty, the little girl Su Siniang will definitely cover the secret, and she will never tell anyone again, and she will not damage the reputation of my seventh sister!" ”

Shao Gong laughed when he heard this.

Su Siniang's face was inexplicable.

"Do you know the purpose of my coming here today?"

Su Siniang shook her head, but said secretly in her heart: Didn't you come to inquire about the truth about Old Madam Su's death?

Shao Gong leaned over slightly and said, "What the lady saw last night Our Majesty has long known, and I am here, not to ask Su Siniang to keep silent, on the contrary, Your Majesty hopes to use the mouth of the fourth lady to tell this matter." ”

"Why?" Su Siniang's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.

The smile on Shao Gong's face faded, he sighed lightly, and said, "Su Qi Niangzi is not suitable to enter the palace as the queen." ”

"Your Majesty doesn't want to do it, but there is no complete solution for the time being."

"I didn't expect this to happen. Your Majesty was very pleased. ”

"The lady may not know that Su Qi Niangzi of your mansion is not the daughter of General Changfeng!"

Su Siniang was stunned!

It wasn't until Xiaoyahuan came in with japonica rice and red date porridge and dim sum that Su Siniang came back to her senses, but looking at the hot and fragrant meal, Su Siniang couldn't raise her appetite.

Shao Gong's last words before going out were still echoing in her ear, "Lady, after the matter is completed, Your Majesty will definitely help you achieve your wishes!" ”

Her wish, in fact, is very simple. But at this moment, she suddenly felt that it was difficult.

What should she do. How to tell these secrets, so that Su Qi can ruin Su Qi and successfully hold his own life while helping the new emperor.

Su Siniang had a headache.

She just propped her head back and frowned in thought.

When Shao Gong walked out of Su Siniang's yard, he deliberately chose a secluded path to go back.

He walked fast along the way, but his heart beat faster.

He slipped out of Murong Qin's side under the pretext of having a stomachache. Naturally, Fang Cai's words were also his own ideas.

He didn't want Murong Qin to marry Su Qi. I know it's a concubine. His Majesty still swallowed his anger and wanted to marry. The daughter of the Mu family is very good, and no matter how bad it is, there are other daughters of important officials in the court, and even the princess of Beiyi. His Majesty went to Su Qi, saying that he wanted to appease the southwest and the 200,000 Changfeng generals' old department, but Su Qishu's identity would be exposed sooner or later, and His Majesty would be able to conceal it with all his might, not to mention that the excerpt of the southwest commander on the table to congratulate the new emperor on his accession to the throne had already been submitted, if His Majesty was afraid that he would not be able to control it for a while, he could drop that commander, General Ji Yu, back to the imperial capital, and then send the Marquis of Xicheng to go, or gradually disperse the rights of the 200,000 troops in the southwest, as long as he firmly sat on the dragon chair, these things were not a matter of time, His Majesty settled on Su Qi in such a hurry, and it was clear that the old love was over!

Su Qi is not bad, but too good, too much to worry His Majesty!

Such a woman, a reputation for fame and trouble, is inevitable, in order to never suffer in the future, he Shao Gong can't help but take action!

I hope that the fourth lady of the Su family really likes His Royal Highness King Xuan and can help him at this critical moment, so that the situation will be better in the future!

Shao Gong sighed silently, and the sound of mourning music could already be faintly heard in his ears, and he accelerated his pace more and more.

That night, Su Siniang blocked Su Qi's way in the main hall of Changfeng Hall.

Blatantly, in front of everyone.

Chu Qing immediately jumped out and blocked Su Qi with a cold face.

You Shi, who was wearing linen and filial piety, had red and swollen eyes, but he shouted at the first time, "Ouch, Siniang, what are you doing here?" ”

The sharp voice was extremely penetrating, and all the people in and outside the hall were stunned.

Master Su frowned and looked over.

You Shi knew that he was reckless, so he hurriedly nodded apologetically to his master, but he still walked to Su Siniang's side very quickly, and said softly: "Siniang, your seventh sister just wants to go back to Linyu Pavilion to change her clothes, if you have any urgency, you can wait until your seventh sister comes." Saying that, she grabbed Su Siniang's hand, and half comforted: "Come to my mother, some dust has fallen on the incense case, you can come and wipe it with me." ”

Su Siniang stood still and did not move.

She looked directly at Su Qi, and there was firmness in her eyes that could not be ignored.

It's okay to break the kettle, she has to say it no matter what today!

"Mother, don't stop me, I have something to say."

The smile on You's face couldn't be pretended anymore.

"You kid, what kind of fuss are you making, that's your seventh sister, if you have anything to say, if you can't wait to say it, if you do it again, your mother will be angry." You Shi accentuated his tone.

Su Qi heard something unusual, she took two steps forward and said, "It's okay, the fourth sister said yes, I'm listening here." ”

Hearing this, the corners of Su Siniang's mouth curved.

She looked directly at Su Qi and said word by word: "I have seen the death of my grandmother, it is you, Su Muli, it is your grandmother who stabbed to death with a dagger!" ”

The vicious words, the voice with hatred, are heard very clearly in the ears.

There was an eerie silence in Nagafudo......

The winter night wind blew through the treetops, and there was a low "whimper", like a wounded little beast chirping in despair.

The first to react was Chu Qing.

"Huh!"

She pulled out her long sword and stabbed straight at Su Siniang.

"Stop!"

Su Qi shouted, saying that it was too late and that it was fast. She blocked in front of Su Siniang with one arrow step.

At this moment, even You Shi opened his mouth wide in shock.

Surprise flashed in Chu Qing's eyes. With her speed, even His Royal Highness King Xuan, who had been in the rivers and lakes for many years, could only barely dodge her sword, but the lady who was a foot away behind her actually took the first step to block her sword!

When was the lady's martial arts so superb?

After Su Siniang was surprised, she seemed to realize it, she took two steps back, pointed at Su Qidao: "You are really good at hiding, you actually know martial arts, no wonder you were able to grab your grandmother and fly out of the courtyard yesterday with one hand......"

Su Qi stood in front of the sword. Motionless.

She. She actually knows martial arts?

With such a long distance, she didn't even need a second to come over, how could it be?

Master Su and Second Master Su came over in hindsight.

Su Siniang was even bolder, "I thought about my grandmother's dinner last night. I'm afraid that she will be hungry in the middle of the night. So he brought the white fungus bird's nest over. It's a pity that my grandmother actually slept, and I learned that you also stayed in Changfeng Hall, warming the bird's nest with hot water from the kitchen. I was about to go back, but I didn't expect to see you wearing only a blue shirt, you walked very fast, no, you are flying, swishing in front of my eyes, I am timid, if I hadn't picked up my grandmother's forehead handkerchief on the snow, I would not have had the courage to quietly follow the past. ”

Saying this, Su Siniang took out the denomination handkerchief from her arms.

You Shi was the first to gasp.

This handkerchief was brought by the old lady last night, or she personally brought it to the old lady, the old lady came back so late last night, afraid that her old man would catch a cold, so she brought it to her old man as soon as she entered the door.

"I followed, in the pavilion in the backyard of Changfeng Hall, when I saw you, you Su Qi grabbed the dagger and stabbed your grandmother directly with a knife......

"You, nonsense!" Chu Qing's eyes were red, and he swept over with his sword again.

Su Qi quickly grabbed the sword.

"Let-she-say-end-"

The hoarse and deep voice was particularly harsh every word.

Blood flowed out of the palm of the hand that held the sword, and stayed straight down the blade, and finally "ticked" and fell down.

"Lady-" Hanxiang cried out, crying.

Su Qi didn't move, and Chu Qing didn't dare to move.

Su Siniang continued: "I was so scared, I went straight to the ground, but I still shouted for help, if it wasn't for the girl Chu Qing next to you who came out, I think I could have called someone to stop you, maybe my grandmother wouldn't have been stabbed so much, maybe my grandmother would have had hope to save her!" ”

Speaking of this, Su Siniang's tears poured down, and she cried: "Su Qi, you are so ruthless, you stabbed your grandmother so viciously, that is your grandmother, you love your grandmother so much, how can you do such a thing?" ”

yes, how could she do such a thing?

Su Qi asked herself, her eyes were blurry, she didn't know, she didn't know, she really didn't know.

"Bang-"

Su Qi fell directly to the ground.

"Lady ......"

"Qi Niang ......"

It's a mess!

When I opened my eyes, it was already dark.

"Lady, you're awake." With a joyful voice, Su Qi stared at it again and saw that it was half incense.

"Chu Qing, find Chu Qing, come."

A hoarse voice, a dry throat that burns out.

Banxiang cried, "Lady, lady, what do you want to get you?" ”

"Chu Qing, look for Chu Qing." Su Qi frowned and repeated.

Banxiang cried more and more.

The deeper the doubts in Su Qi's heart, "What's wrong?" ”

Banxiang heard the "wow" and cried.

"Chu Qing was kidnapped by the eldest master's people, and the second master said that if Chu Qing dared to resist in the slightest, he would immediately report to the official, and when Chu Qing heard it, he immediately threw away the knife in his hand and stood there and let the master's people catch him."

"The fourth lady said that it was a short dagger that killed the old lady, and it should still be in Chu Qing's, so the eldest lady took someone to search for it, and it was really found under the bed."

"The second master immediately tied up the dusty mother-in-law."

"Lady, lady, if you don't wake up again, I'm afraid that my mother-in-law and Chu Qing will be in danger!"

Tears fell from Su Qi's eyes.

…… As soon as he heard the report, Chu Qing threw away the sword in his hand......

…… Without the slightest resistance......

…… The dagger was found under the bed......

It turns out that it's all true!

The tears in Su Qi's eyes flowed even more fiercely.

In the firewood room of Chofudo. Su Qi saw Chu Qing, who was tied up with five flowers, and there was a cloth ball stuffed in his mouth.

Su Qi stepped forward and ripped off the cloth ball.

She squatted down and leaned against Chu Qing's side, "I only ask you, is what Su Siniang said true?" ”

Chu Qing raised his head suddenly, staring at Su Qi without speaking.

That look is enough to explain everything.

It's like a knife, a knife that's so sharp. Straightly. stabbed Su Qi fiercely, all the way to the bottom of her heart.

The pain spreads everywhere......

Murong Qin arrived at the General's Mansion an hour earlier than yesterday, and when he came, he was still wearing a dragon robe, obviously directly from the early dynasty.

Xuanwu Yicheng is not there. Even the county lord of Qiling is not there.

But at this time, Su Qi no longer had the heart to care about these.

She sat in the corner. Put your hands on your knees. The whole body trembled.

"Ah Qi, Ah Qi ......" A familiar voice came, with full pain.

But such a voice made Su Qi afraid. She hugged herself tighter and shrunk into the corner of the firewood room.

The next second, fall into a warm embrace.

"Ahh

Screams rang out, followed by punches and kicks.

"Ahh

Murong Qin's eyes deepened, and he hugged the person in his arms even tighter. But in the next second, he made a quick move, and the shouting stopped abruptly, and Su Qi fainted in his arms.

Messy weed-like hair, dusty eyes, red and swollen eyes, tears that still linger, and even bitten lips......

Murong Qin's heart ached and he closed his eyes.

“…… I'm sorry, Su Qi ......"

The whispered words were said with a crying voice.

Su Qi was carried out of the firewood room.

Outside the firewood room, Wu Yang knelt in a large area.

Murong Qin glanced at it and said solemnly: "Qi Niang is my future queen, I will not allow anyone to slander her, I have asked the Flame Division to investigate this matter, and I will definitely find out the real culprit behind it and avenge the Duchess of the Kingdom!" ”

After speaking, he hugged Su Qi and strode away.

Su Siniang fell to the ground with a white face.

The lord of Qiling entered the palace after breakfast.

Murong Qin personally sent someone to bring her in.

"Su Qi-" As soon as Qi Ling saw the haggard figure on the dragon bed, he immediately rushed over, and as soon as he grabbed Su Qi's hand, his eyes turned red.

"You, don't say it, don't say anything, I've heard it, those nonsense are all made up by the vicious Su Siniang, the emperor's brother has asked the Flame Division to come to investigate this matter, I heard my father say that it is still the case taken by Lord Bingluo, you can rest assured, you know the personality of Lord Bingluo, the most upright, and will definitely find out, you can rest assured!" Qi Ling said with tears in his eyes.

"I heard that you are sick and have a high fever, how can this be? You have to take good care of yourself, otherwise Old Madam Su will definitely not feel at ease even if she leaves. ”

"Su Qi, I know you're sad, Mrs. Su is your grandmother, your grandmother who loves you so much, and your grandmother who is so filial, if you are sad, you can cry, cry, okay?"

Murong Qin's eyes turned red, he turned around, lifted his heavy steps, and walked out step by step.

"Uhhh

A desolate cry came from the inner room.

Tears flowed down the corners of her eyes.

Murong Qin closed his eyes in pain.

He asked himself, over and over again in his heart: Did he do this, right?

Killing Old Madam Su, launching the 'Soul Devouring Attraction', and borrowing Su Qi's hand to kill Old Madam Su ruthlessly, such a method, such a direct and ruthless method, is it really right?

How could he have thought of this?

He asked himself.

Why do you want to do this to Su Qi, Ah Qin's Ah Qi......

In the inner room, the county lord of Qiling wiped away his tears, quickly glanced at the door, and then pulled off a Nanzhu hairpin on his head, and took out a note from the distraction of the hairpin. She attached it to Su Qi's ear, "Brother Xuanwang's letter." ”

Su Qi looked at it while sobbing.

By the end, I had forgotten to sob.

There was anger burning in his eyes.

She raised her head and stared at the county lord of Qiling, as if she wanted to see something in her eyes.

Qi Ling pursed her lips and nodded.

Su Qi was still looking at it like that, staring at it, but the county lord of Qiling saw that something in the big almond eyes was shattered with a "bang", and it could no longer be pieced together.

"Su Qi ......"

She called out uneasily, softly.

Su Qi grabbed Qi Ling's hand and only said two words, "Help me-" (to be continued.) )
