Chapter 194: A Game Within a Game
Late at night, in the dungeon of the courtyard.
Qi Heng's people pressed Liu Wan'er to appear as promised, Zhou Huan looked worriedly at Liu Wan'er who was covered with blood in front of him, and Qi Yu waved his hand to let his people take Liu Wan'er.
"Wan'er?" After everyone left, Zhou Huan approached Liu Wan'er who was lying on the ground. "With so much going on (qíng), can you give me an explanation?"
While speaking, Zhou Huan took the best gold sore medicine he had prepared in advance and sprinkled it on Liu Wan'er's wound.
"Girl, don't you resent me?"
Liu Wan'er moved her mouth and endured the pain on the wound.
Zhou Huan shook her head, in the dim room, she couldn't explore her god (qíng) in detail. "Your father is kind to the Chu Palace."
Once Deacon Liu and others protected Qi Yu on the battlefield, in the end, Zhou Huan still remembered it as it was. Moreover, with these (rì) children who get along with Liu Wan'er, Zhou Huan feels that he will not look at the wrong person.
When Zhou Huan said this, Qi Yu, who was standing there not far away, was also completely stunned.
He always thought that Zhou Huan was because of his soft heart, but he didn't expect it to be because of himself.
"Liu Wan'er, although you didn't tell Qi Heng our share (shēn), but you put everything (qíng) on Chu Xingchen's (shēn), this is what you call liking!"
Qi Yu spoke, his eyes cold.
Liu Wan'er shook her head, and suddenly thought of something and said: "My father didn't commit suicide in fear of sin, but was killed by someone. ”
"So what?" Qi Yu continued to be aggressive (bī) people.
"The eldest prince promised me, and he will definitely give me justice." In front of Zhou Huan and others, Liu Wan'er didn't want to hide herself too much.
Only then did Zhou Huan understand, "You mean, when you went to assassinate you today, it was the eldest prince who helped you?" So, you listened to the words of the eldest prince and identified Chu Xingchen? ”
"It's not." Liu Wan'er shook her head and denied, "It's not that Chu Xingchen is recognized, it's the eldest prince who said that only in this way can he find out everything." ”
"I see."
Zhou Huan nodded, finally having a full understanding of the situation in front of him.
"One key left?" Qi Yu spoke again.
Zhou Huan on the side heard Qi Yu interrogate like this, and couldn't help frowning and looking at Qi Yu next to him (shēn).
But Qi Yu continued to speak his words as if he didn't react.
"Keys?" Liu Wan'er looked at the other person's (shēn) suspiciously, then shook her head and said to the two: "I don't know anything about the matter between my father and the king of the south (qíng). ”
"In that case......
Qi Yu was just about to say something, but Zhou Huan interrupted him.
"Wan'er just came out of the Great Prince's Mansion and is injured, let her rest first."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Huan immediately turned (shēn) to appease Liu Wan'er, and then pulled Qi Yuzhuan (shēn) out of the cell.
Outside the cell.
Qi Yu looked at Zhou Huan in front of him inexplicably, but Zhou Huan sighed and said to Qi Yu: "You also found out that Liu Wan'er was wrong, right?" ”
"So you know." Qi Yu looked at Zhou Huan in surprise, "Since that's the case, then why don't you let me ask the matter (qíng) clearly." ”
"I just don't think the two of us can ask this question clearly." Zhou Huanzhuan (shēn), his eyes fell on the cell behind (shēn) with a complicated gaze.
"Landlord, why would she want to come back to us?"
Zhou Huan's voice was a little sad, in the end, in fact, she was unwilling to put her doubts on Liu Wan'er (shēn) in her heart.
After all, Liu Wan'er's family is kind to the Chu Palace, and the last time they were in Junshankou, Qi Yu trusted Liu Wan'er so much, so Zhou Huancai has been reluctant to put his suspicions down.
"If my guess is correct, Liu Wan'er should know some of the news of the last key." Qi Yu said his analysis.
Zhou Huan nodded, then slowly turned around, looked at Qi Yu and said, "In that case, can I leave the last trust to the landlord?" ”
"Okay." Qi Yu nodded, "You go back and rest first, I'll give you a satisfactory reply early in the morning." ”
In the end, Zhou Huan still has no way to do it, so leave it to others to do it.
Zhou Huan slowly turned (shēn) away, while Qi Yu, who remained in place, sighed and withdrew his gaze.
Then he said to the air behind (shēn), "What do you think about this?" ”
"Liu Wan'er is lying, I have long known about the mutual use and cooperation between Lord Deacon and King Nan." Chu Xingchen, who had been standing in the dark, walked out as he spoke.
In fact, from a very early stage, Qi Yu had his suspicious eyes on the (shēn) of the Nanwang Mansion, and because of this, when the Nanwang approached Deacon Liu, Chu Xingchen instructed the deacon to agree to cooperate with the Nanwang.
"That's what you said you wanted to tell me?" Qi Yu remembered that before coming to Jiangnan this time, Chu Xingchen seemed to have something important (qíng) to say, but it was delayed later.
Chu Xingchen nodded, "Some time ago, the deacon had an accident, but the lord didn't let me tell you with a death appearance (bī), saying that he could solve it himself. ”
"I see."
Qi Yu raised his head, and his complicated expression fell on Chu Xingchen's (shēn), Chu Xingchen suddenly only felt a chill in his back, but he didn't say anything in the end.
He obediently lowered his head and said nothing more. This is indeed what he did wrong.
"Don't worry, Wan'er, I'll explain." Chu Xingchen apologized and spoke, but in the end, he was too late.
"No matter who it is in the future, you don't have to go to the soup for me." Qi Yu muttered, "Otherwise, you don't have to stay by my side (shēn)." ”
After saying that, Qi Yu turned (shēn) and left.
It turned out that in the end, Deacon Liu still died because of him. It's just because they are all tracking down the affairs of the Nanwang Mansion (qíng) for him.
I don't know how to describe it, but it's too uncomfortable.
After Qi Yu left, Chu Xingchen, who had been staying in place, remained stunned in place, unwilling to move more.
"Let's get down to business." I don't know when, Meng Qi suddenly stood next to Chu Xingchen's (shēn).
"When are you ......" Chu Xingchen looked at Meng Qi who suddenly appeared suspiciously, and felt embarrassed the next second. You won't? ”
Chu Xingchen pouted, "Didn't you ask me over?" ”
"Huh?" Chu Xingchen was still puzzled.
"You said you were going to solve Liu Wan'er's matter (qíng) together." Meng Qi replied seriously, "What, is it possible that you plan to leave Miss Liu alone in this matter?" ”
"How so." Chu Xingchen hurriedly denied it, quickly followed Meng Qi's footsteps, and the two of them hid in the dark.
But?
Chu Xingchen thought left and right, why did he feel as if he hadn't made an appointment with Meng Qi? Could it be that there is a problem with my memory.
"...... you" Chu Xingchen couldn't figure it out, and when he was about to ask, Meng Qi on the side made a silent gesture.
"Shhhh
Following Meng Qi's gaze, sure enough, two black-clothed people appeared at the door of the dungeon at night, and then put down the people at the door of the dungeon.
This house was arranged by Qi Heng, so Qi Heng knows everything in this mansion well, and it is precisely because of this that he can appear here so blatantly.
"Master, it's okay."
The guard who was following Qi Heng (shēn) reported to Qi Heng, then waved his hand to signal the guard to stay at the door, and he walked into the dungeon.
In the dungeon, Liu Wan'er was resting on the wooden board (chuáng), her face was not as pale as before, it seemed that Zhou Huan had really prepared good medicine for her.
"Looks like they're the same to you?" Qi Heng hooked his lips and sneered. "Otherwise, why don't you get out of the dungeon."
Liu Wan'er ignored the tone of the visitor, "The matter (qíng) has not been found out yet, so the eldest prince doesn't need to be in such a hurry." ”
"Really?" Qi Heng sat on the stool in front of Liu Wan'er with Erlang's legs crossed.
"But how did I hear something else, such as ......" Qi Heng (yù) said again, "the key?" ”
When the word key was spoken, Qi Heng's tone was absolutely cold, obviously an attitude towards the betrayer.
Liu Wan'er shook her head again, "I'll say it again, I don't know anything about the Nanwang Mansion (qíng). ”
"Wait." Qi Heng left his position, stood up from there, and then walked in front of Liu Wan'er.
"I don't seem to have told you that it's the key to the South Palace, right?"
Suddenly, Liu Wan'er's face was like ashes, and she immediately lowered her head, unwilling to say another word.
Liu Wan'er suddenly remembered that when Zhou Huan and the landlord came to ask, she seemed to answer like this. Other words......
"Liu Wan'er!" Qi Heng bent down and clamped Liu Wan'er's chin stiffly, "Let me tell you, only I can help you with your father's injustice (qíng), is it possible that at this time, you are still counting on that fool?" ”
Of course, Qi Heng knew that the Liu family was all from the Chu Palace. But in the end, King Chu is a fool, what can he help them?
"Also, I forgot to tell you." Qi Heng let go of his hand, and Liu Wan'er's chin flushed. "Before, in the matter (qíng) between your father and the Nanwang Mansion, that Chu Xingchen seemed to have been involved a lot."
"Chu Xingchen?" Liu Wan'er suddenly burst into tears, didn't she know what her father was doing (qíng), and she also knew that she was helping Chu Xingchen?
"And then?" Liu Wan'er closed her eyes, as if she was about to hear the most cruel words.
The corners of Qi Heng's lips curled up with a cold smile, "Chu Xingchen knew about your father, but he didn't help. ”
Behind this, what exactly does it mean, Liu Wan'er will not know.
Who knows, Qi Heng still doesn't plan to let Liu Wan'er go, "In other words, that is, Chu Xingchen gave up your father at the most critical time, and my people also found out that your father's death is inseparable from Chu Xingchen." ”
Anyway, Liu Wan'er would hate Chu Xingchen, so Qi Heng didn't mind making the matter more serious.
