Chapter 485: Life Hangs by a Thread (Part II)
It happened so suddenly and unexpectedly,
Startled by the cat that suddenly flew down from the eaves, Mama Wu exclaimed in surprise, and when she fell to the ground in a few steps, although she subconsciously covered her mouth, it was still too late, she knew it herself, and she was already able to foresee the fate she was going to face.
Sure enough,
Silent also,
I only heard the sound of a gust of wind shaking the hem of my clothes, and then I felt a chill in my neck.
When she opened her eyes, she could see Zhilan's cold gaze standing in front of her,
Holding a long sword glowing with cold light, extremely sharp as clay,
It goes straight to her neck, and if it goes half a minute forward, or if she moves around, it may be the end of seeing blood seal her throat. Mama Wu stiffened, not even daring to swallow her saliva, her wide eyes shook slightly, full of fear and despair.
"Squeak-"
The door was pushed open,
Yukihime and Yingsleeve only walked out at this time.
"Yo, I didn't expect the annoying cat to send us a distinguished guest." Yingsleeve stepped forward and took a look, "Who should I be, how can I be the most favored celebrity around the imperial concubine, Mama Wu, it's so late, it stands to reason that Linlang Palace and Lingxue Pavilion are not close, why did you swim here at night?" Since we came, we didn't spread the word, but it was like we had lost the thoughtfulness of hospitality. The mocking tone of the sleeves teased Mama Wu,
A cruel gaze in his eyes,
Like a poisonous snake spitting letters.
Compared with the cynicism of Ying Sleeve, Xue Ji is much more calm.
Staring into Mama Wu's eyes, she didn't see joy or anger, and she wasn't too surprised, she just looked at it, as if she was looking at something interesting.
"The slave was negligent for a while, and she didn't notice it when she was followed, and she begged the mother to punish her."
Zhilan asked for sin.
"It's okay, I rarely have visitors to this Lingxue Pavilion on weekdays, and it's rare to be so lively today, but it's also very good." After looking at Mama Wu for a long time, "The person who comes is a guest, how can there be a reason to use the sword, put it away, it just so happens that I also want to talk to Mama Wu." ”
"Yes."
After Zhilan put away her sword,
Yukihime crouched down,
Slowly stretched out her hand like Mama Wu leaned in, but it was just such a simple action, as her hand approached, it trembled more than when she used her sword against it.
In his wide eyes, horror was written,
Seeing the fear she brought her, Yukihime seemed to enjoy it very much. She reinserted the hairpin on Mama Wu's hair that was crooked due to the fall, and cut her hair again.
Slightly curled the corners of his lips and said:
"Why is Mama Wu so scared? I just want to take care of my grandmother's appearance, after all, I am also respected in the palace, and this embarrassed appearance is not good. ”
After a pause,
Raise your eyebrows lightly,
"And I'm the one to be afraid of. After all, the two highest-ranking concubines in the harem, including the emperor, were overheard by the grandmother, and if it came out, wouldn't they be immediately asked? ”
"No, no, slaves are useless, slaves won't ......"
Mama Wu's mind went blank,
Except for the knee-jerk denial, I can't think of anything else.
What scheming decisions in the past,
At this juncture,
It's useless.
The cold sweat had already wet his back, but more than the coldness of his body, it was more of the cold despair in his heart, like a lamb to the slaughter, shivering in the cold wind.
"Won't?"
Yukihime covered her lips and chuckled,
The laughter in the silence of the night is incomparably permeating, like a spirit.
"No, it won't tell the imperial concubine that the man who made her lose her virginity was arranged by me, and the flower tea that she relied on would eventually kill her; still told Concubine Jing that even though she was evaded once, the next series of accidents were thrown back to implement the crime of fornication with Zhang Huaiyi; Or I want to tell the emperor that in fact, I am Prince Rong's person, and I am Dongli's spy, and the only task is to keep Daqi's harem in a state of 'fire', and then affect the previous dynasty, so that Dongli can take advantage of it. ”
Having said so much in one breath,
Yukihime took a deep breath,
"With so much news, who does Mama want to tell and which one to say, or do you want to say both?"
“……”
Mama Wu couldn't answer.
This pile, one by one secret,
It's all shocking news that can set off a storm and waves.
Any one is enough to cure Yukihime to death,
But now he told her so easily and frankly, and he didn't care.
Mama Wu's eyes were scattered, and the last half of hope in her heart was completely extinguished.
To a dying man,
Naturally, it doesn't matter what secrecy is.
And this dying man,
Isn't it just yourself?
Xue Ji enjoyed torturing her psychologically, so she didn't simply let Zhilan take her life just now.
At this moment, she tilted her head, as if she was chatting and guessing 'who will pass on what style of dress tomorrow',
"But I guess it's more likely to enter Concubine Jing's ears, after all, Mama is not just Ling Suxin's nurse military advisor now, but just like Zhilan, she is just an eyeliner placed in Linlang Palace."
unceremoniously exposed the identity of Mama Wu,
"How could you, would-"
Now that life and death have been settled, there is no need to be afraid or afraid, and Mama Wu gradually calmed down. I just want the doubts in my heart to be answered before she dies, so that she can be a ghost.
"Will you know this? Indeed, after all, with Mama's ability, she covered it up so well, and even the imperial concubine who got along with her every day and night didn't notice it, but how could it be known instead, and Mama should have this doubt. ”
Yukihime tapped her lower lip,
"Maybe it's the invisible tacit understanding between the fine works.,You have to choose a quiet moment to act.,Isn't it a matter of time before you are bumped into.。 However, I admire Concubine Jing very much, after all, it is much more difficult to betray the nurse who has always been loyal to the Ling family and has watched Ling Suxin grow up since she was a child, than it is to let Zhilan, who has only just entered the palace. ”
"So whether there is tonight or not, the slave and maid, the 'spy' whose deeds are exposed, are certain to die."
Mama Wu smiled bitterly with a sad expression,
"Not necessarily."
Xue Ji, who used to be silent, has a lot to say to the dying Wu Mama at once,
"It's not necessary, why do you need to tell the imperial concubine to know, if she knows, how can she bear it, how can I use my grandmother's mouth to reveal the news of Zhang Huaiyi's residence in the hot spring courtyard to Concubine Jing. As long as the cicada does not take the initiative to send it into the mouth of the finch, the yellow finch is also happy to regard the poor cicada as a bait for the praying mantis. He shook his head.
