Chapter 42: Betrayed Love and Despair
Qi Zhan looked at Rong Yunxi with an appreciative look.
"The second young master of the Huo family is in the wing room next door." Qi Zhan said, "I just passed by the back garden of the Closed Moon Garden, and I met it. ”
When Huo Yurou heard this, her face stiffened in an instant, and her hands on the brocade quilt were a little stiff.
Everyone asked, "Second Young Master of the Huo Family?" What is he doing in the back garden of the second lady? ”
When Huo Yuanhua reached this point, he couldn't see what was happening, and secretly scolded Kou Yuanqi and Qi Zhan in his heart, and immediately opened his mouth to aim at Qi Zhan.
"But...... Seventh Prince, why did you pass by the back garden of the second lady of the Rong family? ”
Qi Zhan laughed calmly and straightforwardly, "In order to complete a good marriage." ”
Everyone was puzzled, and Qi Zhan said again, "Actually, the second young lady of the Rong family drove the second young master of the Huo family out of the boudoir, and I picked it up." ”
"This ......"
There were indescribable expressions on everyone's faces.
"Seventh Prince, you can't talk nonsense!"
Huo Yurou glared at Qi Zhan with teary eyes when she heard this, "Seventh Prince, you taught Rong Yunxi to see my daughter first, and now you slander my daughter's innocence behind, what are your intentions?!" ”
"Hey, you can't say that, Mrs. Huo."
Qi Zhan smiled and called out, "Huo Ming, come in." ”
Huo Yurou's face changed suddenly, her eyes were staring at the door outside, but she still saw Huo Ming with a cold face, and walked in step by step, her whole heart was like falling into an ice cave.
Huo Ming didn't seem to see anyone, so he stepped forward and grabbed Rong Yuejin's quilt and lifted it, and said in a cold voice, "Yuejin, don't pretend, you've already taken the antidote, right?" ”
"After all, I gave you the antidote."
In the eyes of everyone's wide-eyed, Rong Yuejin opened her eyes, but sat up from the bed in an instant, shook her hand and wanted to give Huo Ming a slap, and scolded, "You useless thing!" If you are told to go, you can be caught! ”
"Yuejin," Huo Ming called her, his voice was soft, but he grabbed Rong Yuejin's wrist with a cold face, and asked her word by word, "Are you planning to give the prince a pill today?" ”
"Are you planning to climb into the prince's bed with this trick like your mother?"
Everyone sighed lightly, turned their heads and didn't want to look at this extremely dirty scene anymore, Rong Xu's face was already pale, looking at this sudden reversal, he gritted his teeth angrily, and stepped forward to give Rong Yuejin a slap.
"Say! Why did Yunxi appear in the study? Why did Huo Ming appear in your boudoir! What are you asking Huo Ming to do again!? ”
Rong Yuejin's face was red and swollen after being beaten, and her hair was messy, she still bit her lip tightly, her eyes were full of tears, and she stared at Rong Xusheng's tearful accusation, "Daddy, have you investigated, have you ever thought about it?" What, is what my sister says? Is what Huo Ming says? You just let others slander your daughter's innocence like this?! ”
Unexpectedly, Rong Xu snorted coldly and asked Rong Yuejin, "Do you know where the prince is now?"
Rong Yuejin was stunned for a moment, her face was a little whiter than before, her lips trembled, and she didn't dare to speak.
Rong Xu answered coldly, "He is sitting in the side hall of the flower hall now, do you know why he is Yuejin?" ”
Rong Yuejin seemed to have thought of everything, and shook her head in disbelief, "Impossible, Dad, how would you know, how would you know?" ”
"How would I know?" Rong Xu's eyes widened angrily, and he couldn't wait to slap Rong Yuejin in the face again, and shouted, "That's the prince himself asking me in front of me!" Where is the eldest lady of the Rong family now, I only learned after careful inquiry,"
"There was a little girl who asked the prince to go to your Closed Moon Garden, saying that Yun Xi asked the prince to go and talk about something, but the prince didn't see Yun Xi at all when he arrived in the Closed Moon Garden, because he was worried about Yun Xi's safety, so he came back to ask me!"
"Why was Yunxi in the study at that time, I think you know very well, right?"
Rong Yuejin cried and knelt in front of Rong Xu, "Daddy, my daughter really doesn't know, it was that little girl who framed me, I really don't know!" ”
Huo Ming sneered, found the incense burner from the room, and threw it in front of Dr. Keqing, "Check what is here, if you dare to tell a lie, I will kill you now!" ”
Doctor Keqing shuddered for a moment, and hurriedly said: "I am true to everything, I dare not say a word of lie, Second Young Master Huo." ”
"Just check, there's so much nonsense."
Doctor Keqing trembled and flipped over the incense burner, and only after a moment did he tremble and whispered, "Hou...... Master Hou, this, here is the urging ...... Aphrodisiac ......"
Huo Ming's eyes were like swords, and he said sharply, "Be louder!" ”
Doctor Keqing's head slammed on the floor all of a sudden, and he said loudly as if he was dying, "This incense burner has aphrodisiac medicine added to it!" ”
"You...... You! Rong Xu's breath was out of breath, Rong Yunxi hurriedly stepped forward to support Rong Xu, and coldly ordered Cuiwei, "Bring that little girl up, and Huo Wenshu, call them over." ”
"Yes, Miss."
The little girl was tied up by Cuiwei and pushed over and knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.
"Say it," Rong Yunxi said coldly, "Say what you said to me before, repeat it, and tell everyone about it." ”
"You have to think about it clearly, this is a matter of the reputation of the eldest lady." Huo Yurou coldly gave an eye knife on the side, and the little girl immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything.
Rong Yunxi saw the little girl's concerns, and deliberately mentioned it.
"Do you remember the palace maid who poisoned me at the palace banquet?"
The little girl lowered her head and didn't dare to speak, Rong Yunxi said again, "After the palace maid died, the palace maid's family was also killed, it was the murder in the capital, you should know, right?" ”
"Miss, what are you doing mentioning this kind of thing at this time?" Huo Yurou stared at Rong Yunxi with a serious face.
"Don't do anything, give this little palace maid a wake-up call." Rong Yunxi said lightly, "Don't do anything to others, not to mention losing your life, and even dying with your family." ”
The little girl's face turned pale suddenly, she was trembling with fright, biting her lower lip flap, she raised her head tremblingly, but looked at Rong Yunxi, "Miss, if I tell the truth, can my family not die?" ”
Rong Yunxi was stunned for a moment, her heart trembled slightly, this girl is ready to die......
She smiled, "I just came to Wudehou Mansion not long ago, I don't know you, which room are you?" ”
The girl didn't expect Rong Yunxi to ask this question, she was stunned for a moment, and replied honestly, "Yes...... It is the girl who grinds in the Hou Ye's study, and her name is Mo Qing. ”
"Okay," Rong Yunxi said, "As long as you tell the truth, I will ask you to come over and be my first-class girl, not only do you not have to die, but you can also be promoted." ”
A glimmer of light flashed in Mo Qing's eyes, but he was still afraid, and in the eyes of everyone, he finally bit his lower lip and turned his gaze to Rong Xu, "Master, the eldest lady didn't go to the study by herself, it was the slave maid who took the eldest lady there." ”
"Aunt Huo asked the slave maid to say to the eldest lady, you had an accident at the banquet, let the eldest lady hurry over, the eldest lady was anxious and worried, so she followed the slave and maid to the study."
"Why are Huo Wenshu and the Seventh Prince also in the study?" Rong Xu asked with a cold face.
Mo Qing shook his head, "This ...... The slave and maid did not know. ”
Huo Yurou and Rong Yuejin's faces were all fading at this moment, and they were already as soft as the walking dead and couldn't get up.
"Well," Huo Wenshu's lazy and sleepy voice came from outside the door, "It was my eldest cousin Huo Ming who asked me to go." ”
"He said let me go over and sleep with Rong Yunxi, and then give me the best mutton fat jade qin."
"Isn't it, big cousin?"
Huo Ming stood in place, his face was as cold as frost, as if he didn't care about what Huo Wenshu said, he just let out a cold snort, "Yes." ”
Everyone also understood the reason at this moment, and they all sighed, and left the Closed Moon Garden in whispers.
The long-tongued women who love to chew the root of their tongues are even more talkative.
Rong Xu was already trembling with anger when he stood in place, pointing at Rong Yuejin and Huo Yurou who were soft on the ground and scolding, "The face of Wudehou Mansion has been lost by you!" ”、
"Daddy, don't be angry, be careful of being angry with yourself." Rong Yunxi helped Rong Xu, carefully followed his breath, and ordered in a cold voice, "Cuiwei, go and compensate the imperial doctor from the palace, tell him not to use it, and send the person back." ”
"Yes."
Cui Wei responded and retreated, and the only ones who were still standing in the room were Qi Zhan and the two sons of the Huo family, Rong Xu, Huo Yurou and Rong Yuejin.
Rong Xu's face turned pale, "Say, what the hell is going on?" ”
Rong Yuejin raised her head as if she had broken a jar, her eyes were desolate, "Dad, don't you know everything?" What else do I have to say. ”
"I'm asking you what happened in the boudoir, and you won't say, do you want someone to examine your body?"
Rong Yuejin and Huo Yurou's faces changed dramatically in an instant, Huo Yurou hurriedly protected Rong Yuejin's body, and pleaded: "Master Hou, if Yuejin is examined, how can I marry in the future!" ”
"If something like this happens, who else does the second girl want to marry?"
Rong Xu snorted coldly, "The second young master of the Huo family was caught and came out of the second girl's boudoir, you still want to stuff the second girl into the prince's bed, and it depends on whether the prince is willing to want you!" ”
Rong Yuejin knelt on Shang and was so frightened that her face turned pale, trembling all over, hearing this, as if she had suddenly grabbed some life-saving straw, rushed over and pounced at Rong Xu's feet, saved Rong Xu's feet, and shouted bitterly.
"Dad, the prince can't do without me, he can't do without me!"
"I even gave him my body, he can't do without me!"
Rong Yunxi was not surprised to hear this, but felt unworthy for Huo Ming, and when he turned his head to look, Huo Ming's face had already lost blood, but there was a sense of self-deprecation.
"You're ......!"
When Rong Xu heard this, he kicked Rong Yuejin away even more angrily, "How did I raise such a shameless daughter like you!" ”
After saying that, he didn't want to see Rong Yuejin again, so he left angrily.
Rong Yuejin fell to the ground and cried silently, Qi Zhan stepped forward and grabbed Rong Yunxi's hand, his face was indifferent, "Go." ”
Rong Yunxi didn't speak, and followed Qi Zhan away, Huo Wenshu glanced at Huo Ming, stepped forward and said, "Cousin, it's not her." ”
Huo Ming's eyes were dull, his angry lips trembled and whited, his fists clenched and his bones protruded, looking at Rong Yuejin gritting his teeth and glaring at her, "Rong Yuejin, you did a good job, you did a good job!" ”
