Chapter 67: Second Brother's Dream
"The second brother just said it directly." Hu Yi didn't drink well, and after a few drinks at random, it was a little smoky.
"You hate Hu Wu and the third uncle and three aunts because they have calculated you and are unkind to the long house, but why did you deal with the prince and the king of Zhou?" Hu Zijue's tone was slightly dark, as if he had made a great determination to ask.
Hu Yiyi chuckled lightly and said casually: "Why else, I'm just here to help my cousin ......"
Hu Yiyi's words all disappeared from her mouth, she originally wanted to say that she dealt with the prince and Ye Wuxian just to help Ye Shao win the heir, but she was in a drunken haze, looking at Hu Zijue's extremely serious expression, and she couldn't say anything about the words behind her.
For a while, Hu Yi didn't know what to say.
"Ah Qi," Hu Zijue opened his mouth first, "Aren't you surprised, why did I suddenly become concerned about you three years ago?" And after that, he has been helping you without asking the reason? ”
Hu Yiyi felt that she might have really drunk too much, otherwise how could she feel that Hu Zijue looked like she was about to cry?
"More than three years ago, I had a nightmare, I dreamed that the seventh prince died, and then you married the king of Zhou, you and the queen mother spared no effort to help the king of Zhou, and finally the king of Zhou ascended the throne and became the emperor, but you failed to become the queen, because the eldest brother collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, the queen mother poisoned the emperor, they were all executed, and then you became a waste concubine, and finally died in the fire......" Hu Zijue said, his hands trembled slightly, he wanted to drink another glass of wine, but his hands seemed to weigh a thousand gold, and he couldn't hold the wine glass at all.
Hu Yiyi's mind woke up in an instant, because the dream that Hu Zijue said was not a dream at all, but a tragic life in her previous life!
"And then?" Hu Yiyi remembered very well that when she died, everyone in the second room was fine, so Hu Zijue should know what happened after her death.
"You are dead, it is the side concubine Pei of the former King of Zhou who became the queen, Hu Wu also became Concubine Xie, the third uncle originally had the skill of being a dragon, and after Hu Wu entered the palace, she was also quite favored, so for a while, the Hu family was in the limelight, and she could directly compete with the queen's mother's family, the Pei family......" Hu Zijue's eyes gradually became a little hollow, that dream has been several years, he has to work hard to recall, so long, if it wasn't for that dream being too real, he would definitely not be able to remember it for so long.
Hu Zijue said this, Hu Yiyi can basically guess, so it is not surprising that she waited for Hu Zijue to continue to say, saying why he became close to her after waking up from a dream, after all, she remembered that she was not particularly close to Hu Zijue in her previous life, and the relationship between brother and sister was not deep.
"King Zhou is so temperamental, no one believes it, so after ascending the throne, seeing that the Pei family and the Hu family are sitting big, my heart is very unhappy, so I deliberately held Hu Wu in the palace, let Hu Wu and the queen Pei fight, and then caused a fight between the Hu family and the Pei family, what kind of person is Hu Wu, you also know, she was praised high, she was unwilling to come down again, in order to keep the favor of King Zhou, she ......" Hu Zijue paused, "After King Zhou ascended the throne, the third uncle also supported our second room in order to increase the power of the Hu family, King Zhou is not good to do it directly to the third room, so he wants to take our second room to open the knife, so Hu Wu calculated us, and used the entire second room as a bargaining chip and gave it to King Zhou, we have never fortified Hu Wu, and in the end, the second room has not left any living ...... except for me."
Hu Zijue said, the hand that was still holding the wine glass trembled slightly, as he spoke, the dream he had gradually became clear in his mind, when the blood flowed in the long room, he was not in the capital, and then I heard that although he had palpitations, but only a little sigh, when it was their turn to the second room, he saw it with his own eyes, the sky was filled with the smell of blood, even if it was a dream, he would never forget.
"The second brother escaped because of this?"
Hearing Hu Yiyi ask about this, Hu Zijue's slightly pale face showed a smile, "You once gave me a birthday gift on my birthday, it was a jasper carved bamboo hairpin, I like it very much, so I have always used it for hairpins, the day before the second room was beheaded, I was replaced by a death row prisoner, I don't know who the other party is, he only said that it was because this hairpin came from the hands of the deceased, so for the sake of the deceased, save my life......"
This is probably what Hu Zijue can't understand the most, but this does not prevent him from thanking Hu Yiyi for saving his life, although he died in the end in his dream: "This is why I suddenly became close to you." ”
Hu Yiyi was silent, she did give Hu Zijue a hairpin in her previous life, but as for the origin of this hairpin, she couldn't remember it, if there was any important origin, Hu Yiyi would not give it to Hu Zijue.
She has never given a hairpin to Hu Zijue in her life, so can she look for it when she goes back?
"In that dream, although the matter of your long room was caused by the third room, our second room has been standing by for the little benefit given by the third room, and we are not innocent, so we were also retributed later." After Hu Zijue finished speaking, he finally drank all the wine in the cup.
"It's just a dream, the second brother doesn't have to blame himself too much." Hu Yiyi can also understand the second room, after all, in the previous life, she and Hu Zichen fell into the trap of the third room from the beginning and didn't know it, and they were not the opponents of the third room at all, so it was normal for the second room to choose the side of the third room.
The feelings between people are all dealt with, just like now, no matter what happens, it is absolutely impossible for Hu Zijue to stand by and watch her anymore.
And in her previous life, she didn't get along much with the second room and others, so why should people go against the third room for her?
"But if we had reminded you when we knew about Sanfang's plan, you wouldn't have ......" The dream that Hu Zijue had was too real, so every time he thought about it, he couldn't let go.
"But the second brother didn't know it earlier, did he? You were a jinshi in your early years, and you have been letting go of foreign positions since then, how do you know the plan of the third room? And how can you remind us? By the time you know, I'm afraid it's too late, right? From the very beginning, Hu Yiyi was only vigilant and not disgusted with Hu Zijue's closeness, because Hu Zijue in his previous life was basically not involved in these conspiracies, and he was the cleanest person in the entire Hu family.
"But......" Hu Zijue just wanted to refute Hu Yiyi, saying that he could not escape the blame, but suddenly noticed that Hu Yiyi's words were wrong, he raised his eyes slightly, and looked at Hu Yiyi in surprise: "You ...... How do you know I've been letting go in my dreams......"
Hu Yi smiled slightly, and his eyes were as bright as stars in the sky: "Because of me, I also had the same dream as my second brother......"
Even if Hu Zijue had such a dream, then she might as well say that she also had a dream, all kinds of things in her previous life, to her, didn't it seem like a dream?
Hu Zijue was stunned.
He never thought that Hu Yiyi actually had the same dream as him! No wonder! No wonder Hu Yiyi is different from his dreams! No wonder Hu Yi has such a deep hatred for Ye Wuxian, no wonder she can know so many secret things!
Hu Zijue's expression was a little excited, after all, someone was like him, he had a dream like his previous life, he moved his mouth, wanting to say a few happy words, but looking at Hu Yi's bright eyes, his excitement disappeared in an instant, he hesitated for a long time before showing a smile like crying, and asked Hu Yi softly: "Ah Qi, when you were burned, did you feel pain?" ”
Hu Yiyi, who was in his previous life, said to the outside world that he was burned to death because the palace was flooded.
Hu Yi thought that she might be really drunk, otherwise how could she want to cry because of Hu Zijue's words?
Hu Yiyi took a deep breath, showed a somewhat reluctant smile, and then shook his head at Hu Zijue and said, "It doesn't hurt, because I died as early as when the fire burned, and I was gouged out by Hu Yi's eyes and poured poisoned wine, so ...... So ......"
Hu Yi's eyes were misty, and she blinked slightly, and tears fell.
Only then did Hu Zijue know how Hu Yiyi died, poisoned wine, and gouged out his eyes...... Hu Zijue felt pain just by listening to it, he hurriedly took a handkerchief, wiped his tears for Hu Yi helplessly, and coaxed in his mouth: "Okay, okay, I know, Ah Qi doesn't hurt...... It doesn't hurt ......."
Hu Yiyi finally couldn't help crying, and finally said vaguely: "I watched the fire burn from there, but I couldn't move anymore...... I knew I was going to die, and I didn't feel the pain of being burned by the fire, and I was dead......"1
"It's okay, it's okay...... It was just a dream...... It's okay......" Hu Zijue gently coaxed Hu Yiyi, he suddenly remembered that many years ago, when Hu Xiuyuan and Gu Wenmin were still there, he actually often ran to the yard of the long house, just to see this youngest sister, Hu Yiyi was so squeamish at that time, he liked to cry when he didn't agree, he often coaxed her like this.
Now that so many years have passed unconsciously, fortunately, fortunately, all this is different from the dream.
When Hu Yi woke up the next day, she only felt a tight headache, not only did she have a headache, but she also felt that her throat was a little hoarse, and her whole body was a little sore.
She hurriedly asked Luan Yin to prepare hot water, and after taking a hot bath, she felt much more comfortable.
Thinking of yesterday's events, Hu Yiyi was still a little embarrassed, she thought of countless possibilities, and she didn't expect that the reason why Hu Zijue became different from his previous life was because he dreamed of his previous life!
She knew something about what happened after she died through Hu Zijue, and she was afraid of the Pei family and the Hu family immediately, so Pei Wenyue and Hu Wu's final ending must not be much better than her.
Thinking like this, Hu Yi felt a little happier again.
Then, she went to find the jasper bamboo hairpin that Hu Zijue had mentioned, the thing that saved Hu Zijue's life in her previous life, but she had no impression at all, she wanted to turn it out to see what kind of thing it was.
Before, Hu Yiyi turned the things in the Hu family's treasury upside down in order to help Ye Zhen find the jade seal of the country, and in her impression, there was no such hairpin, so she searched for several days, but still didn't find it.
"What is the girl looking for that hairpin?" Luan Yin was no longer surprised by Hu Yi's rummaging through things without moving, but she still couldn't help but ask.
"I want to know where I got it from." Hu Yi replied absentmindedly while looking for it.
It's a pity that Hu Yiyi couldn't find it in the end.
So Hu Yiyi asked Hu Zijue to draw the hairpin, and she wanted to see if she could remember it if she saw the painting.
Hu Zijue's painting is still good, the hairpin is painted vividly, Hu Yiyi took it and looked at it for a long time, she seemed to remember that she had such a hairpin, and she didn't seem to remember.
