Chapter 24: Be honest with each other
Sure enough, the guards really didn't make a mistake, and someone replied: "Chief Qiao is angry, I don't know what happened to come to Fengyi Palace, but now that I know, I don't dare to offend you." ”
The situation took a turn for the worse, and even Deng He was stunned for a moment, and then angrily reprimanded a guard: "You dare to disobey the general's order? ”
The guards did not speak. For a while, the courtyard was very quiet.
Qiao Fengzhi let go of Yao Duran's hand at this time, and said while stepping down the steps: "Our family said that the queen mother did not die!" The child's nonsense couldn't be believed, and the prince saw that the queen was very tired and fell asleep, and he thought it was a collapse. Those who are here today had better keep their mouths shut, but don't let our family hear such rumors again, otherwise they will be punished for the crime of cursing the queen! ”
"Yes, the little ones obey." The guards replied.
The frightened palace people saw that the situation had changed, and they could be described as a Jedi, and they also responded again and again.
At this time, he only heard a "swish", Qiao Fengzhi had already pulled out the guard's sword, walked towards Deng He, and said solemnly: "You are bewitching the crowd and cursing the queen, our family will personally send you on the road today!" ”
Deng He looked at it, his face was full of disbelief, but where was Qiao Fengzhi's posture playing? Thinking about it, Deng and his legs were a little weaker, and he reprimanded while retreating: "Qiao Fengzhi!" You...... You...... I am General Du's man, you dare to touch me? ”
Qiao Fengzhi didn't care at all, and said something rebellious leisurely: "Our family really has to tell you that there is no one in this palace who does not dare to move in our family, including Your Majesty." ”
When Deng He heard this, he suddenly realized that the person in front of him had developed a veritable eunuch, and if he dared to say such big words, it could be seen that he had already established himself in the palace and had a dark force. Presumably, the guards, eunuchs, and palace ladies in the palace have already been co-opted and bought by him, just look at the deference and obedience of those guards.
The more Deng He thought about it, the more frightened he became, and scolded again: "Qiao Fengzhi! You, you don't want to be presumptuous! If you are so rebellious today, the general will not be able to bypass you in the future! ”
"Huh!" Qiao Fengzhi sneered and continued to approach.
Deng He was in a hurry, and hurriedly shouted at Xie Yuanzhi: "Madam! Madam! Say something to save the villain! The villain is for the general! ”
Xie Yuanzhi saw that Qiao Fengzhi was going to make a big fuss, so he asked loudly: "Qiao Fengzhi! Mrs. Ben is still here, and it depends on the owner that you beat the dog, right? ”
Qiao Fengzhi didn't care, and said lightly: "Madam, his dog mouth is determined that the queen's mother has collapsed, this is a bad thing, Madame doesn't understand." Therefore, a dog that hurts its owner is not a good dog, and it is useless to keep it! ”
When the words fell, Qiao Fengzhi resolutely raised his sword, and as soon as his wrist moved, the sword broke through the air, and between the lightning and flint, the sharp sword body pierced into Deng He's heart inch by inch.
A terrible scream suddenly sounded in the courtyard, accompanied by blood gushing out. Deng He fell to the ground suddenly, spitting blood from his mouth, and after a few dying struggles, he swallowed in pain and died on the spot.
A few timid Gong E's immediately screamed and covered their eyes.
Yao Duran looked at Qiao Fengzhi in a daze, she had never seen him like this.
Here, Qiao Fengzhi walked over leisurely, pulled out the sword from the corpse, and then threw it back to the guards, while saying lightly: "The corpse has been disposed of, and it is all scattered." ”
The guards listened to the order and withdrew from Fengyi Palace with Deng He's body.
The courtyard that was still crowded with people was calm at this time, as if nothing had happened.
Xie Yuanzhi came back to her senses, snorted coldly angrily, and asked, "Qiao Fengzhi!" Your move seems to be taking care of the overall situation, but in the end, you are still trying to save your life! ”
Qiao Fengzhi acted as if nothing had happened, straightened his clothes casually, and said without being humble or arrogant: "Both." Alright, Madame, let's go back to the side hall and rest. Come and help the lady and the son into the palace, so that they can serve for a good life. ”
The two palace ladies took small steps, came to Xie Yuanzhi's side, and said respectfully: "Madam, prince, please enter the hall and rest." ”
Xie Yuanzhi saw that the matter had come to this point, and it was useless to say more, so she had to snort coldly, turn around with her sleeves, and go to the side hall.
Qiao Fengzhi walked up the steps to Yao Duran's side, but saw that her peach blossom eyes were unfathomable, like a solidified deep pool, Qiao Fengzhi held her hand and asked, "Dye'er, what are you in a daze?" Scared silly? ”
Yao Duran came back to his senses at this time, and in front of him, he was gentle and elegant again, and he was like two people.
She froze and shook her head at him, "How could I be stupid? With you, I'm not afraid of anything. ”
"That's right." Qiao Fengzhi pulled her into the hall, and the door of the hall slowly closed, isolating the spring light outside. In a dead air, Qiao Fengzhi withdrew his gaze from the side of the bed and sighed: "Alas, it's really not the right time for the queen to die. It's so decent, is it so fast to say that you die? ”
Yao Duran's heart froze, and when he heard him say this, he had doubts in his heart.
Perhaps, the time has come.
Thinking about it, Yao Duran said softly: "Fengzhi, what you said is right, the queen will indeed not die so abruptly, because she was indeed killed by me." ”
"What? What did you say? Qiao Fengzhi's eyes were full of surprise, thinking that he had misheard.
Yao Duran met his eyes and repeated seriously: "I said, I killed the queen, that is, Fang Cai, I suffocated her with my own hands." ”
When Qiao Fengyi heard this, he was confused, only to feel that the fog on her body was thicker, and asked, "Then why did you kill her?" ”
Yao Duran sighed: "Fengzhi, there are some things, I should confess to you." Do you know who the Ye Jiaren who was cooked by the queen is? ”
"She's my own sister." At this sentence, she burst into tears.
Qiao Fengzhi was shocked again, and his handsome face was also dyed a little solemn: "Ran'er, what are you talking nonsense?" How could she be your sister? ”
She lamented: "At the beginning, the beauties sent by Dongjing were infected with the plague and died, and the escort envoy forcibly arrested me and my sister. So we entered the palace by mistake, but my sister died tragically at the hands of the queen! Not only did I watch my sister die tragically, but I also ate my sister's meat! ”
"I survived, abandoned my identity, and hibernated beside the queen, just to kill that poisonous woman! How many times did she fall asleep, I stood in front of her bed in a daze, and there was only one voice in my heart, kill her! Strangle her! Stabb her to death with a hairpin! However, when I thought of you, I told myself, I can't be so grandiose, I can't affect you. But now I've finally done it! I've finally avenged my sister! ”
"Bongzhi, you know what, I'm so miserable!"
All the worries and fragility were cathartic like a torrent at this moment, Yao Dui was dyed with tears, covered her face and sobbed, the past scenes were too piercing.
This is a thorn that she can't get rid of all her life, and it is deeply rooted in her heart, and if she thinks about it, she will go crazy and lose control of the pain.
Qiao Fengzhi looked at her in a daze, and in his impression, this was the first time she had lost her temper like this. He was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that the woman who hugged her into his arms and never cried easily, but at this time she was crying in his arms with all kinds of sadness and sorrow.
At this moment, he understood everything, he finally understood her, and he finally cleared the fog from her.
It turned out that she was tenacious, intelligent, cautious, and defensive...... None of them were forced out by this blood feud. It turned out that her heart had been burdened with such a bone-breaking pain.
After Qiao Fengzhi's epiphany, his eyes were full of pity, he tightened his arms and rubbed her into his chest, gently stroked her back, and sighed: "Ran'er, I finally understand." It turns out that you are not a person from Dongjing, and you have suffered. It's just that why don't you ever mention it to me? ”
She snuggled into his chest and choked: "Fengzhi, I'm afraid that after I tell you, you will disagree with me or stop me." I am determined to win this revenge, no one can stop it, even if I die on the way, I have no regrets! ”
"Fool." He reproached, and said, "Dye'er, the matter has come to this, don't worry, don't be afraid." I am responsible for this, and no one can hurt you. By the way, what is your real name? Where is home? Do you have relatives? ”
He asked carefully, however, she only shook her head gloomily: "Fengzhi, the sky and the earth are big, and I have no relatives." As for my name, don't mention it, in this life, just let me be Yao Duran. ”
Although Xie Shijun is idle, the makeup is with Qiluo. It's just that her sister Su Mingxiang is dead, and she can no longer face her real name.
After hearing this, Qiao Fengzhi raised her face and stared deeply: "Okay, Ran'er, although you have no name with me now, in my heart, you are my only wife." No matter when and where, I must have the same heart and one path with you, no matter what happens in the future, don't hide it from me again, let me protect you, let me share it for you. ”
Her heart was warm, and in her hazy teary eyes, the stirring emotions had gradually calmed down, and she gently grabbed the clothes on his chest and said softly, "Hmm." Fengzhi, no matter when and where, we have one heart and one road. ”
"Okay."
At this time, the hall suddenly brightened up a little, and the two looked through the window together, and it turned out that the clouds were drifting, revealing the daylight.
Qiao Fengzhi retracted his gaze and said warmly: "Dye'er, don't be afraid, all this gloom is about to pass, and we are about to pull out the clouds and see the sun, and the willows and flowers will be bright." ”
Yao Duran was ignorant, and raised his eyes to look at him, but saw that his eyes were intertwined with many emotions, and he couldn't snoop on him. She suddenly remembered the question in her heart, and said: "Fengzhi, I have been serving in the palace today, and I have not left an inch, and the queen has never ordered you to take Mrs. Du and the prince into the palace." ”
Qiao Fengzhi stroked her long hair, smiled faintly, and her eyes were as unpredictable as abyss: "The queen has indeed not commanded like this, but I, Qiao, can use them." ”
Yao Duran became more and more foggy, but saw that his handsome face was already approaching, and slowly spoke in her ear.
She listened to every word clearly, and finally realized that Qiao Fengzhi's purpose was understood. Her beautiful eyes flashed with complexity, as if surprised and excited.
At this moment, he impressed her. At this moment, she realized that they also had like-minded things, but they didn't know each other before.
Thinking about it, she nodded lightly to him and encouraged: "Fengzhi, it is said that husbands and wives follow, you can just let it go, I will always support you behind you and follow you." ”
He received her approval and stroked her face with a light smile. The two stared at each other speechlessly, looking at each other at this moment, unfathomable, tacitly.
