342. 342. Nightshade 2

Murong Qingyi was closely guarded again, this time, Master Murong not only arranged for people to surround his courtyard and take turns guarding it day and night, but also tied him to the bed in the house with specially made cold iron chains, and a special person served him to eat, drink, and sleep.

Within a few days, Lord Murong and his wife gave Murong Qingyi a family affair, the other party was Gu Qinglian, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, who was outstanding in appearance and gentle and virtuous, and the most important thing was that the Gu family was also a famous family, and the family style was rigorous, which was a good match for the Murong family.

Master Murong found someone to look like Murong Qingyi to greet his relatives, and gave him medicine before worshipping the hall, causing him to be at the mercy of others, saying to the outside world that he was infected with wind and cold, and set off strong medicine in the incense burner of the new house, prompting the two to round the room, and what is even more absolutely is that after giving tea to his parents the next day, Master Murong locked the two in the new house and used the medicine from time to time.

However, more than a month later, Gu Qinglian never got pregnant.

Although Master Murong was very anxious, he was also afraid that using the medicine too many times would hurt his son and daughter-in-law's body, so he stopped the medicine and relieved Murong Qingyi's confinement, but he still sent someone to guard him.

Seeing that Murong Qingyi had trouble sleeping and eating all day, Gu Qinglian endured her heartache and went to see Lord Murong and Mrs. Murong in person, intending to persuade them to fulfill Murong Qingyi, but after being politely rejected by the two old men, she secretly tried to help Murong Qingyi leave.

The emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally late one night, Gu Qinglian managed to drag the servants on duty at night, and Murong Qingyi took the opportunity to escape from the mansion and returned to the Absolute Dust Palace, and never returned to the Murong Mansion again.

Two years later, Murong Qingyi once again quietly sneaked into the capital and wanted to take Wen Rumeng away, but unfortunately it still didn't work, and he also lost a lot of people from the Absolute Dust Palace.

Frustrated, Murong Qingyi decided to return to the Absolute Dust Palace, but he secretly returned to Murong Mansion first.

Seeing Gu Qinglian's filial piety to her in-laws and keeping Murong Mansion in good order, and thinking of Gu Qinglian's affection and fulfillment at the beginning, Murong Qingyi was inexplicably moved for a while, so he and Gu Qinglian had a courtesy of Zhou Gong, and left before dawn the next day.

One day more than a month later, Murong Qingyi heard a secret report from his subordinates that the Murong family had been wiped out overnight, and the corpse was set on fire, and he was immediately very sad and shocked.

According to the government, it was a group of robbers who murdered for money and finally set the fire to it.

Murong Qingyi naturally didn't believe the government's rhetoric.

After all, there are at least more than 1,000 people in the mansion and the side branches, and most of them are martial arts, what kind of bandits can kill everyone at once? Moreover, Murong Mansion covers an extremely large area, and it was the middle of winter at that time, how could it be reduced to ruins overnight? Even the bones of my father and wife, as well as my relatives, are gone?

However, the fire destroyed all the evidence, and Murong Qingyi could not ask the government to investigate it, so he could only set up a tomb for everyone in the cemetery of the Murong family, and then locked himself in the secret room of the Absolute Dust Palace for ten days and ten nights without eating or drinking, in order to remember his relatives, punish himself, and change his name to Feng Qingyan.

It wasn't until Zuo Protector couldn't stand Murong Qingyi's self-abandonment like this, and forcibly broke into the secret room and scolded him angrily, that he was like an initiation.

This catastrophe of annihilation came too strangely, and he has not yet found out the truth to avenge his relatives, how can he be depressed and degenerate?

Subsequently, Murong Qingyi led people to secretly track down for three years, but unfortunately he never found any clues, and this incident became an indelible pain in his heart, which would always inadvertently make him feel incomplete.

"I'm sorry for my father, I'm sorry for those relatives who died in vain, I'm most sorry for my wife, she is so gentle and kind, so magnanimous and open-minded, I have been married to me for two years, not only did I not fulfill my husband's responsibilities, give her the care and love she deserves, but also affect her to die at a young age......" Murong Qingyi drank the liquor wildly, and at the same time suppressed it and cried in a low voice, and the old tears were full of tears.

Looking at the full moon in the dark night sky, Qingyun's expression was still as calm as water, and her voice was ethereal and ethereal: "Did Gu Qinglian really die in that fire?" And where is Gu Qinglian's daughter now? ”

No one knew that Qingyun's five fingers holding the wine glass were so hard that she almost crushed the wine glass, and no one knew that her heart was already fluctuating at the moment, like a stormy wave on the sea.

Murong Qingyi was stunned for a moment, then turned his eyes to look at Qingyun, and a trace of bitterness appeared on his tear-stained face: "Rujin really hates me deeply!" ”

Qingyun pursed her lips without saying a word.

Rujin is Gu Qinglian's personal maid who grew up together, and she happened to go home to visit relatives at that time, so she was spared.

After hearing the bad news of Murong Mansion, Rujin hurried back, but unfortunately Murong Mansion had already been defeated.

Later, when they met Mingqi, who was ordered by Master Murong to go out to run errands and heard the bad news, they were both grief-stricken, and overheard that the lady and the nurse had escaped with the lady and the lady in the chaos, so they followed the trail all the way to the other hospital, but the lady was already sick, and the life and death of the lady and the nurse were unknown.

Looking at the lady who is getting thinner and thinner, suffering from illness and longing every day, Rujin is both distressed and resentful.

If it weren't for the master, why would the lady suffer the pain of calamity and separation?

Therefore, Rujin blamed all the blame on the master, and tried to kill the master again and again without success, so he wanted to use the hand of Qingyun to avenge the lady and the young lady.

"Qinglian really didn't die from that fire." Murong Qingyi's dark eyes were full of grief and remorse: "When the thieves broke into Murong Mansion, Qinglian's nurse took advantage of the chaos to cover her and her daughter, who was only more than a month old, escaped, and the two rushed to this courtyard with their daughters overnight, who knew that the thieves were in hot pursuit, and in a hurry, Qinglian entrusted her daughter to the nurse, and dragged her weak body to lead away the thief, but fortunately, passers-by rescued her to get here, but Qinglian's body was fundamentally injured, and she was concerned about the safety of the nurse and her daughter, so that she became ill and died three months later. The whereabouts of the nurse and our daughter are unknown. ”

"Didn't you send someone to find out what happened to them?"

"I personally brought people to find them, but they have never heard from me, and they can't even protect their wives and daughters, I am not worthy of being a husband or a father!" Murong Qingyi's deep voice was full of self-blame and powerlessness.

"You are not even worthy to be a human being, let alone a human husband and father!"

Placing the wine glass on the table, ignoring the shattered wine glass and the overflowing wine, Qingyun stared straight at Murong Qingyi, the eyebrows under his eyes contained a terrifying crispness and ruthless murderous intent, and his voice was as soft as a cold needle.
