2. Bloodstained Begonias Chapter 7 The Death of the Bridegroom
"Why haven't you come out yet? This embroidery should be finished stitch by stitch, right? Anyway, let the Oiran lady show her face! The other, slightly better tempered, also complained dissatisfiedly.
"Yes! Let's just give us a glimpse! And they all agreed.
Seeing that it had aroused public outrage, the old bustard trembled and wiped the cold sweat that came out of the fright with a handkerchief, and she also understood the truth of public anger. Looking at the Ruyi Xuan, who had not made the slightest movement, he secretly worried in his heart: What is going on with this begonia tonight? Why hasn't it been so long?
No, I'll have to rush to see it. While thinking about it, he went upstairs with a "pum". Came to the door of Ruyixuan, stretched out his hand and gently knocked: "Begonia Begonia, why haven't you done it yet?" The guests are in a hurry! "Where did Yu Bing, this dead girl, go? Don't you know how to wake her up when the hour comes?
After waiting for a long time, I didn't hear any sound, and a flash: It can't be an accident, right? The thought can be unexpected. She was furious, and pushed the door but found that it could not be opened from the inside. In desperation, she used all her strength to slam the door hard, and after repeating it a few times, she finally slammed the door open!
The door was opened, but she was stunned by the sight of the cup of tea in the room:
What caught my eye was the table facing the doorway, with only a blue and white porcelain tea lid and a tablecloth printed with tea stains. Looking down at the traces of the tea, the ground was a mess. The rest of the tea was spilled on the ground along with the tea leaves, and the teacups were torn apart. One of the broken porcelain shards also had a trail of blood on the tip, and the wound was on the finger next to the foot of the table. Probably scratched while struggling!
And the owner of the wound was Young Master Ma, who was supposed to be waiting in the Ma Mansion to marry tomorrow, only to see him sliding on the ground in front of the chair at the moment! With a dead gray face and eyes closed, black stains flowed out of the seven orifices, obviously dead for a long time!
It took a long time to come back to my senses. The old bustard resisted the desire to vomit, bypassed the deceased and came to the back room, but saw begonias lying flat on the Yao bed, with a ruddy complexion, steady breathing, and sleeping soundly?
Oh, my God! Who can tell her what happened in this house?
"Ahh …… Die...... Dead person? Xiao Yue, who happened to pass by the door, saw Ma Tian, who was in a terrifying death, and couldn't help but faint to the ground with a scream.
"Dead? Fast...... Let's go and see! The guests who had been waiting below to no avail were alarmed by Xiao Yuedi's screams, and rushed upstairs with a hug.
"Begonia, Begonia, wake up, wake up!" The old bustard, who was forced to be calm, pushed the begonia that was still sleeping soundly, and the old bustard couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw that she hadn't reacted for a long time, "Why did you sleep so deeply?" ”
"Huh? It's really dead! "The first brother who rushed up was frightened when he saw the elegant folding fan in the hand of the dead man. After coming back to his senses, he shouted, "I, I'll go report the crime!" "Slipping faster than a rabbit, will he really go to report the crime? God knows! In this world, there are often people who are active in watching dramas, and there are too few people who are righteous.
"I'm going to call Li Zhutou, he's my neighbor." The other also volunteered to leave, it seems that not everyone will only watch the play, I hope he can really find Li Zhutou.
After a while, a few catchers really came and carried the body away. Of course, along with the begonias that are still sleeping, they were also taken away!
When this kind of thing happens, no one is in the mood to watch it anymore, not to mention that even the protagonist has taken them away to see what to see? Therefore, the old bustard could only reluctantly return the silver tickets that had not been covered to those dignitaries. But all the silver that had no power and no power was wasted, and he thought he was unlucky and didn't get a single jumper.
Begonia couldn't figure it out, how could she be woken up by someone splashing cold water when she slept well in Ruyi Xuan?
looked at the county hall in front of him before he had time to figure out what was going on, so he was inexplicably hit by forty boards. How did she, who was supposed to sit in Ruyi Xuan and try to get married, came to this court?
And the two old men, who should be her father-in-law and mother-in-law, are shouting for her to pay for her son's life! Who can tell her what all this is all about? Finally she couldn't hold on anymore and passed out......
As for what happened in the Qingfeng Pavilion and the county government hall, Yu Bing, who was far away in the cave on the edge of the cursed forest, was unexpected. She didn't even know that her life-saving benefactor had been beaten forty times and put in a women's prison.
In Qingfeng Pavilion, in order to find her, the chickens and dogs are already jumping, and it has become a pot of porridge!
However, she methodically picked up some firewood near the cave, piled it up, took out a fire fold and lit it, and slowly and methodically helped the handsome man who had been rescued during the day to change the powder and re-bandage it. took out the delicate bamboo tube that had been prepared and fed him some light and soft liquid food, and then changed into new clothes for him. After all, the clothes on his body were too tattered and stained with blood, and being seen by someone with a heart would cause unnecessary trouble.
After doing all this, she sat on the stone by the fire and watched the leaping flames in a daze. I couldn't help but think in my heart: I don't know if Qingfeng Pavilion is still busy now? Has Miss's show ended? Tomorrow she's getting married! Having a good home is a major event in a woman's life. Now that I've retired, it's time to leave! It's been eight years! It's been too long, what happened in the palace eight years ago? I'll have to find out!
Hazy, he seemed to see a figure dangling around him in front of him, and he wanted to see more clearly, but his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't open them. The whole body was even more painful without a trace of strength, and he had been so weak since he was a child. His mother wanted to get his father's attention because of his excellence, and he had always been in good health, even typhoid fever. Sometimes he longed that he could get sick so that he could have more of his mother's love.
But now that he tasted this kind of feeling of having more than enough heart and not enough strength, he swore that he would never have such a stupid thought again, it was simply asking for his own suffering!
Taking a deep breath and trying to run the true qi, after a sharp pain like a pinprick, he finally saw the dangling figure clearly: a white dress is better than snow, three thousand green silks are pulled up by a jasmine flower that exudes a faint fragrance, and the remaining few wisps are scattered on the front chest with an unknown tender grass vine. Pieces of small young leaves hold out a pretty face with condensed skin and white and red; The long eyelashes flutter like the wings of a butterfly; There were sparks in his clear eyes, and he seemed to think of something happy.
The soft cherry lips pursed lightly, and the corners of the mouth were slightly upturned as if smiling. She is so quiet and elegant, she doesn't know the fireworks of the world, she is so good as water, and she doesn't compete with Baiyan. Who is such a wonderful person? When he thought so, he asked directly: "You...... Who are you? ”
It's just that because of the injury, and I haven't been wetting my throat all the way, so my hoarse voice is very ugly. He frowned with some dissatisfaction. After a long time, he remembered the picture before he fell unconscious, and knew that the woman in front of him had no malicious intent. Although his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and every word he spit out made him uncomfortable, he still asked, "Yes...... It's you...... Saved me? ”
Yu Bing, who was in a daze, was frightened by this sudden voice, and followed the sound to see that he had finally woken up after a coma for a day and smiled happily: "You are finally awake!" ”
After the words fell, he got up and came to him, grabbed his wrist and called for him under his vigilant gaze, what a heavy killing intent!
The flash of murder in his eyes did not escape her eyes, and she knew what it meant to be defenseless. And it didn't affect me anything.
The corners of her mouth hooked, she nodded and smiled, "Well, the recovery is good, and the pulse is stable, it seems that there is no big problem." But remember, don't let the wound get wet. Don't run the True Qi casually, otherwise once the wound is opened again, the gods will be incurable! ”
Seeing his high vigilance and the appearance of being ready to do anything at any time, Yu Bing had to tell him with a solemn face.
Perhaps Yu Bing didn't do anything unfavorable to him, and his eyes that were alert at all times gradually became calmer. At a glance, you can see this vast barren mountain. Looking at the rolling peaks in the distance, and the lush foliage gently swaying with the wind, he said in confusion: "This, where is this?" ”
"Tianping Mountain!" Yu Bing, who sat back next to the fire, heard his confusion and explained.
"Tianping Mountain?" He muttered to himself, "Which Tianping Mountain?" Fu said, "What kind of territory does this belong to?" ”
"Bazhou!"
When he got back, he suddenly reacted and said in astonishment, "You mean, this is Tianping Mountain in Yilong County, Bazhou, and the cursed forest, known as the forbidden land of the Tang Dynasty, is here?" ”
"Yes!" Pick up a piece of wood that has been burned outside the fire, throw it back into the fire, and continue lightly.
Listening to her answer, he felt as cold as pouring a basin of cold water. It turns out that all this is not a dream, it is real!
But he really couldn't understand: when did his mother, who had always been gentle and kind, become so ruthless?
He is her son, her own flesh and blood! She actually drove him out like a food! In this way, she was still not at ease, and sent someone to hunt down and kill herself!
Fortunately, I was fortunate to meet another her, looking like a fairy, she was as pure and gentle as a fairy. Listening to her bland words, the indignation in my heart quietly dissolved.
A graceful arc was hooked around his mouth, and his eyes were full of curiosity, "Dare to ask, what is the girl's name?" He really wanted to know who this hard-hearted woman was!
"Ask a weak woman's name, shouldn't you report yourself first?" Yu Bing saw the sudden red expression on his face, and looked at him with some amusement and asked.
"Uh...... It's time to be in the next abrupt beauty! Once again, a faint flush appeared on Junxiu's face.
"The surname is Zhang Minghuai, and the word Zixian. Luoyang people's clan is just the year of the weak crown. The family has been in business for generations, just because it has offended the powerful. Half a month ago, I started to be hunted down, and I thought it was a catastrophe this time. Because I met you, I got away with it. His eyes flashed, and he touched the well-bandaged wound and asked tentatively again, "What about you?" Is it a doctor!? ”
