Chapter Twenty-Six: Stratagem
Liu Sanniang was already disheartened and stopped talking.
Helian Zhu coughed and explained to the guards: "Pull the dead one out for me and whip the corpse, as for the living ......"
The light of the lighting in the hall flickered slightly, and a bloody mark splashed on the ground.
For a while, the kneeling minions in the hall almost collapsed in fright, and in order to save their lives, they didn't dare to scream loudly, so they had to cover their mouths with iron purple faces and tremble like chaff.
"Drag it out and whip the corpse together!"
Helian Zhu's face was still angry, and he dropped the blood-stained knife in his hand, and finally saw a trace of fatigue under his vicissitudes of life.
While everyone present felt relieved because of the end of this matter, only Helian Che knew that this matter was by no means so easy.
Ye Lingyi, who had been punished with thirty lashes, was directly sent back to Helian Che's ear room under the orders of the master's family.
When someone grinned and secretly took out the knife-tip medicine that Danqing had given him to apply the medicine with difficulty, Helian Che came in.
Ye Lingyi glanced at him, and didn't care that he couldn't keep the image he disguised on weekdays, so he scolded: "A sanctimonious hypocrite, a snobs who take advantage of the fire to rob!" ”
Helian Che hadn't recovered from what had just happened, when he suddenly heard her scolding, frowned and said, "Why did you bite Lu Dongbin?" If you don't thank me for saving your life, why do you scold people in turn? ”
"Did I save you?"
Ye Lingyi gave him a blank look as much as she could: "Why did you let people lock me in your room?" What do you want to do? ”
So she was talking about this?
Helian Che couldn't help laughing: "Do you think I praised you for your good looks, and you made me blind?" Ben Gongzi is not hungry to eat like this, right? ”
Ye Lingyi glanced at him unceremoniously.
"It's really not my idea to send you here, it's the Taishi......"
Helian wanted to see their jokes at best.
"Don't worry, I won't be interested in what I do to you, after all, you have no two flesh, and it really doesn't meet my appetite."
When Helian Che said this, his eyes deliberately glanced her up and down.
Ye Lingyi lay on the bench, annoyed and angry, and the slightest movement touched the wound on his body and grinned in pain.
Helian Che seized the opportunity to gloat and said, "Look, it's not enough to stuff people's teeth with your poor body." ”
Ye Lingyi's smile was very "kind": "Then your appetite is really big!" Cow stomach, right? ”
"You've been getting more and more unruly lately." Helian Che snatched the medicine from Ye Lingyi's hand, took a closer look, and was stunned.
Isn't this the knife-tip medicine he gave Danqing at the beginning?
"It seems that you have a particularly good relationship with Danqing." Helian Che looked at her back and opened the medicine jar in his hand.
Ye Lingyi suddenly stopped talking, and it took a long time for a sentence to come out: "He is the only person in this mansion who really treats me well." ”
"So, you killed Helian Tu to avenge Danqing?"
Ye Lingyi reluctantly turned her head to look at the person sitting beside her: "Isn't it also a big trouble for you?" ”
After all, the person who Helian Tu set the fire and intended to kill was him, Helian Che.
"Helian Tu's idiot deserves to be my trouble?"
Helian Che smiled disdainfully, in fact, if he wanted Helian Tu to die, Helian Tu had already died countless times unconsciously, so why make such a fuss now.
Ye Lingyi turned around and lay on his stomach and didn't speak anymore.
"Take your clothes off."
Helian Che spoke abruptly.
Ye Lingyi was taken aback, turned his head again and said, "What kind of tiger and wolf words are you talking about?" You just said that I didn't meet your appetite, and you changed your mind after a while? You're too fickle, aren't you? People in the world say that a man is a promise, how can you have a man's family? ”
"I mean medicate you!" Helian Che looked very incomprehensible: "Why are you suddenly so excited?" ”
Ye Lingyi choked in his throat.
"Is it possible, do you really want me to do something to you?"
Helian Che smiled wickedly, deliberately approaching the tip of her nose, and the distance between the two lips was only a little bit, as if they would collide with a single movement.
Ye Lingyi's breathing was held uncontrollably, but who knew that he approached just to say in a low voice: "The toad wants to eat swan meat." ”
With that, he retreated.
Ye Lingyi's eyes widened, what kind of toad? Who is a toad?
He even said she was a toad? She Ye Lingyi grew to be twenty-seven years old, and no one ever said that she was a toad.
"You ......"
Out of defense of his dignity, Ye Lingyi sat up angrily and threw a punch, but it hit the palm of his hand.
His hands were large and easily wrapped around hers.
With a slight force in her palm, she fell uncontrollably into his arms.
The smell of smoke on his clothes made Ye Lingyi feel like a heart for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.
"What do you do......"
"Don't move!"
Helian Che pressed her shoulder without saying a word, and took out a silver knife from his waist to cut the clothes on her back.
"This is the best material sent by the Taishi, and it was ruined by you like this."
The mouth is merciless, but the subordinates are surprisingly gentle, and the knife slowly cuts through the blood-stained robe, without touching her fleshy wounds at all.
He began to work on drugging her.
She didn't have the embarrassment and panic she had at the beginning, and she still had a sense of stability in her heart for a while.
"I'm so sorry today."
She suddenly said this.
Helian Che lightly sprinkled the powder on the wound and glanced at her.
"If it weren't for me, you and your father wouldn't have had a disagreement."
"He's not my biological father."
Helian Che drugged her. He said this very seriously.
Ye Lingyi was taken aback: "I thought it was ......"
Helian was only his enemy, and one day he would pay back all his humiliation.
"Taishi is just my uncle! Don't be so self-righteous, you don't have that much charm to make me harbor my brother's murderer and my biological father. ”
I see.
No wonder she always felt that the relationship between Taishi and Helian Che was a little delicate.
"Master, can I ask you one more thing?"
At this time, she put on a good face.
"I can't."
Helian Che said.
Ye Lingyi ignored it and continued to ask: "I heard everyone call you Young Master, why is this?" ”
"How dare you take my words for granted."
Helian Che's expression softened, and his pupils narrowed slightly, as if he remembered something a long time ago: "That's because my original name was Helian Ling, and later because I resigned the word to the emperor, it was changed to Che, but everyone is used to being called Young Master Ming." ”
"Sparkling ......" Ye Lingyi thought for a while: "Sparkle and Che both have the meaning of clarity, but they have one meaning, and they are not insulting the original name." ”
She didn't ask about his biological parents, because she vaguely realized that the feeling of decisiveness and hatred in his assertiveness when he said that Taishi was not his biological father was really not good.
Those two must have a story to tell.
There are several golden lotus lamps burning in the magnificent Shengning Palace, which are gold candlesticks cast in the shape of lotus flowers, on which sit bright red candles, and the candle flames show two radial rays of light intersecting at the wick point through a layer of milky yellow curtains like cicadas.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from nowhere, gently lifted the curtain, and wrapped in bursts of incense burning in the temple.
"What? Helian Note: That old thing actually took the opportunity to hurt that girl? ”
The young queen mother sat on the golden phoenix couch, stood an elderly woman a few steps away, bowed her head and said solemnly, "Yes." It seems that he was deliberately angry because of the death of the third son of Helian. When the old slave was ordered to go to the Taishi's Mansion today to see the girl, the girl was lying on the bed and couldn't get out of bed, and the whole person's spirit was in a trance, far less than before, and she was drowsy and always talked nonsense for several days. I heard that the Taishi only whipped thirty times, but the old slave checked the wound on the back of the girl, but found that ......"
The upbringing of the grandmother made Liang Hou's anger rush up: "You can say what you find!" ”
The nurturing grandmother looked at her in embarrassment, and finally said: "The wound on her back is so deep that I can't tell how many whip marks there are, but the whole back is bloody and blurry, and the clothes are stuck to the back that has already suppurate. Queen Mother, you say......"
Liang Hou was impatient: "When did you become so procrastinating?" Just say what you have. ”
The nurturing grandmother bowed deeply, and her face was quite solemn: "Look at that wound, it's not just thirty lashes. The old slave said something rebellious, did the master have ill intentions and wanted to destroy that girl? ”
When Empress Liang heard this, her beautiful eyes suddenly sharpened: "He dares to that old thing!" is pregnant with the big event of mourning the family, and he must have the courage to bear the consequences. ”
Parenting Mama bowed her head deeply and said, "Yes! ”
Liang Hou thought about it secretly, and a trace of calculation quickly flashed in her eyes: "Explain it and let Tang Luo go to the Taishi Mansion." Take the girl into the palace first, and only say to Helian Note that the mourning family wants to personally lecture and leave her in the palace for a while, and pass on the mourning family's will, especially the second son of Helian as the leader of the four guards, and give the mourning family hand card to enter and exit the palace gate at any time, and the glory of the family must be loyal. ”
Ye Lingyi's arrival made Liang Hou, a woman who had been scheming for a long time, vaguely aware of a strange wind direction, she felt that what she hoped for was about to come true, and at this time she would never allow anyone to ruin her plan.
In the ear room of Tianxinju, Lao Qiu was picking up the medicine box.
Ye Lingyi, who was pale, sat up from the bed, and there were still cracked blood stains on her bloodless lips.
Helian Che walked in from outside and asked Lao Qiu, "How is it?" ”
Lao Qiu paused his hand and waved at Helian Che: "According to the instructions of Young Master Ling, sprinkle a layer of iron powder on the back of the green kite every day, the wound festers and deepens rapidly, and it has not improved for a long time, and the remaining iron powder will be used up today." ”
Helian Che nodded and said, "Got it, let's go out." ”
Lao Qiu answered, and when he left, he looked at Ye Lingyi, who was sitting on the bed with weak eyes and blue eyes, and wanted to say something, but finally sighed and went out with the medicine box.
"Lao Qiu is a trustworthy one, don't worry!" Helian Che walked over to the bed and sat down.
"Do you blame me?"
He said.
Ye Lingyi covered his chest, which was a little uncomfortable breathing due to back pain, and shook his head: "The master is trying to save my life, I know it." ”
