Chapter X.3
He covered his stomach and looked at Aunt Xu again, gritted his teeth and said, "Aunt Xu, you,"
Before he could finish speaking, he fell over one by one and died on the spot.
Aunt Xu didn't say a word like a sculpture, just looked at him silently.
Seeing him fall, she breathed, and without panic, reached out and put on the hat on her cloak, and turned away.
Only dropped one sentence: "Deal with it cleanly, don't be discovered by others." ”
Back at Fukang Palace, Aunt Xu reported to the Queen Mother: "Niangniang, it's done." ”
"Hmm." The Queen Mother nodded, and said, "Auntie, did you say that the mourning family did the right thing to do?" ”
"Everything she does is for the sake of the bigger picture. Don't feel guilty. Aunt Xu said.
"Hey, it's a great sin to mourn the family! You will arrange for someone to find out who else is in his house, and you will be kind to them. Saying that, the Queen Mother folded her hands and walked towards the Buddha Hall.
Aunt Xu said, "Yes." And he withdrew.
The Queen Mother walked into the Buddha Hall and murmured: "Eldest Princess, you have saved the life of the Mourning family, and now the Mourning family can be regarded as saving your daughter's life, as for whether she can live or not, it depends on her creation." ”
Then she lit another pillar of incense, bowed in front of the statue of the Bodhisattva, and silently recited in her heart: "May the Bodhisattva bless me with the longevity of my great ginger, the prosperity of the country, and all the sins created by the believer will be borne by the believer alone." Amitabha... ”
After two days, Shangguan Beitang still felt that Yuzhu was preoccupied, and he was not as happy as before, so he thought about taking her to the street.
The two of them left the house and walked to the market, and came to a stall selling rouge, and Shangguan Beitang saw a delicate small comb. grabbed Yuzhu and said, "Look, is it good-looking?" ”
Yuzhu nodded expressionlessly and said in a low voice, "It's good-looking." ”
"Then I'll buy it for you." Shangguan Beitang said that he went to ask the vendor for the price and pay.
At this time, two people walked down the street pulling a frame car, one pulling in front and the other in the back, shouting as they walked: "Let one go, let one go!" ”
Everyone crowded to make way for them, and one of them on the side of the road suddenly felt a hand on his waist, but when he saw it, it was a hand that came out of the car, and he couldn't help but be startled, and shouted: "Shout, how is this a dead man!" ”
Everyone panicked and looked at the cart, but saw a person wrapped under the old straw mat, and the man's arm was on the cart, so he accidentally touched the pedestrian.
Seeing this, the cart man hurriedly stopped the car, put the dead man's hand into the cart, and hurriedly said to the passer-by who was hit: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”
Yuzhu also happened to see this scene, and when she saw a purple and purple tooth mark on the dead man's hand, she couldn't help but panic in her heart.
That night, Yuzhu was pointed at the acupoint, she couldn't move, she couldn't speak, the man reached out and touched her cheek, and she used all her strength to bite him hard.
Now seeing the tooth marks on this person's hand, her heart was panicked again.
After Shangguan Beitang finished paying, he turned around, and saw that in broad daylight, someone was pushing the dead body across the street, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and stepped forward to ask the two cart men, "What's the matter?" Where did the dead come from? ”
A cart man replied: "Hui Gongzi's words were transported from the palace, and I heard that this person was a guard in the palace, and he was molesting the palace maid in the harem two days ago, and was discovered by the aunt in the queen mother's palace, and the queen mother died." ”
Yuzhu heard that this person came out of the palace, and he probably understood a lot in his heart, his eyes stared at the corpse motionlessly, and he couldn't help but tremble all over.
Shangguan Beitang heard that someone dared to defile the harem, and he was very angry in his heart, looked at the cart in disgust, waved his hand and said, "Quickly pull it away." ”
"Yes." The two cart pullers answered the sound and walked towards the front of the car.
At this time, Yuzhu suddenly stepped forward and said, "Wait." ”
The two cart pullers turned around and looked at Yuzhu with puzzled faces.
Shangguan Beitang also looked at her with some confusion and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Yuzhu didn't look at him either, staring at the corpse in the car with his eyes straight and said, "I want to see him." ”
When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, and they all started talking in a few words.
Shangguan Beitang was the most amazed, Yuzhu was the most timid on weekdays, and even a cockroach would be afraid to run past her feet, why did she insist on seeing this dead body today.
He hurriedly whispered to her: "Sister Yuzhu, this is a dead person, I can't see it." ”
"I'll just take a look." Yuzhu said stubbornly.
"This," Shangguan Beitang hesitated a little, he really couldn't bear to let Yuzhu see the miserable and cold corpse. sighed, and persuaded again: "Sister Yuzhu, let's go back to the house!" ”
"I'll go back after that." Yuzhu was still staring at the corpse wrapped in a straw mat.
Shangguan Beitang had no choice but to let the two cart pullers lift the straw mat.
Seeing that Yuzhu and Shangguan Beitang were both dressed in wealth, the cart puller naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he also stepped forward and persuaded him: "Girl, this person is dying very miserably, it's better not to look at it, so as not to get bad luck." ”
"I'm afraid of any bad luck or not, you just have to lift the mat." Yuzhu said coldly.
When Shangguan Beitang saw this, he took out two pieces of silver and handed them to the cart puller, saying, "Take it away, let her see it." ”
After the cart puller had received the money, he said no more, but sighed, shook his head, and walked towards the cart.
Yuzhu also followed to the car, and a few bold people also approached the car, wanting to see how miserable this person died.
Some timid passers-by hurriedly walked away, and several women with children also hurriedly reached out and put their hands on the children's eyes.
Yuzhu watched as the straw mat was gradually lifted, and a cold and painful face appeared under the mat.
She looked closely at the man's cheek, and when she saw the black veil around his neck, she was sure that this man was the one who had ruined her innocence that night.
At this moment, Yuzhu didn't feel scared at all when she looked at him, she only had endless anger and resentment, but could she blame the person lying in the car for all this?
He was also ordered by men to do it as a last resort. He wouldn't have thought that he would even take his own life when he came!
What about me, in this situation, I will probably be like him in the near future, and my life will be in the hands of others!
But who can I hate? Who can blame? He, the Queen Mother, or the Prince?
The prince is kind to me, how can I blame him. Besides, he didn't know anything.
That's it, if I really give up my cheap life, I can keep the prince safe, and I haven't come to this world in vain!
Yuzhu held back her tears and turned away, hurriedly dropping a sentence: "Lord Wang, the slave is tired, let's go back to the house!" ”
Shangguan Beitang hurriedly chased after her and said, "Okay, okay, let's go home." ”
Only everyone was left to sigh, this woman was so bold.
A few days later, Xiao Yiqing came back from Ganzhou and went to the Beixuan Mansion to discuss the specific matters of the marriage.
Shangguan Beitang thought that Yuzhu was married to a good family, and his heart was naturally happy.
Although he felt that Yuzhu was not very happy these days, it was only due to her concern for Xiao Yiqing, who was out on errands. So I didn't pay much attention to it.
Today, the Xiao family came to hire him, and he was very happy to ask someone to invite Yuzhu out.
"Uncle Qin, go and call Yuzhu out. Let's just say that the people from the Xiao Mansion have arrived. Shangguan Beitang said to Uncle Qin in a hearty mood.
Uncle Qin's face was also full of joy, and he went out again and again: "Yes, yes, I'll go." ”
Shangguan Beitang looked at Xiao Yiqing, who was sitting on the chair with a spring breeze on his face, and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao, don't worry, and wait, let's take a sip of tea first!" ”
Xiao Yiqing also looked at Shangguan Beitang and smiled: "Let the prince see and smile." ”
"I don't know how Brother Xiao is going to Ganzhou? Is it all going well? Shangguan Beitang asked.
"Thanks to the blessing of the prince, everything is going well." Xiao Yiqing said.
The two of you are chatting with each other. After a while, Uncle Qin returned.
He had a difficult look on his face, glanced at Xiao Yiqing with a strange expression, and then walked to Shangguan Beitang's side and whispered a few words in Shangguan Beitang's ear: "Lord, Yuzhu said that please tell the people of Xiao Mansion and let them bring back the dowry, she will not marry." ”
After he finished speaking, Shangguan Beitang's face changed suddenly, and he asked, "Why?" ”
"She didn't say it." Uncle Qin shook his head.
Shangguan Beitang slapped the table and stood up, wanting to go over and take a look for himself and ask what was wrong with Yuzhu.
Xiao Yiqing also saw the mutation of the two, but he didn't hear clearly what it was for, but his intuition told him that this matter was related to Yuzhu.
Seeing Shangguan Beitang standing up, he also stood up and asked, "Lord Wang, but what happened?" ”
Shangguan Beitang naturally couldn't tell him clearly, he still wanted to persuade Yuzhu, so he said: "Brother Xiao, sit down first, and this king will go back when he goes."
was saying that he was going to go outside, but he heard Yuzhu's voice already coming: "The prince doesn't have to go, the slave is here, and he will talk to him himself." ”
Xiao Yiqing followed the voice and looked, The person who made him think about it day and night was already standing at the door of the hall, and he couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.
She was still dressed in green clothes, like an elf who had fallen into the mortal world. It's just that he hasn't seen her for some days, and he looks at her and feels that her body is much thinner again.
Looking at her cheeks again, although she wiped some rouge today, it is not difficult to see that she is a little haggard. Such a haggard made him feel distressed.
Yuzhu didn't look at him either, walked straight forward, knelt down to Shangguan Beitang, and saluted: "Slave and maid see the prince." ”
Shangguan Beitang said: "Why do you bother to make this big gift, get up quickly." ”
"The slave and maid have something to ask the prince, and if the prince does not agree, the slave and maid will not be able to kneel for a long time." Yuzhu said.
"Sister Yuzhu, if you have anything to say, get up and say! There are some things that you can't take back once they've been said, so you have to think about them. Shangguan Beitang persuaded. With Qin Bo's report, it is not difficult to guess what Yuzhu is going to say.
"No, Yuzhu figured it out, Yuzhu was born as a person from the Beixuan Palace, and died as a ghost from the Beixuan Palace, Yuzhu will never leave the Beixuan Mansion in this life, and beg the prince not to marry me to the Xiao Mansion." Yuzhu said coldly.
When Xiao Yiqing heard this, he suddenly felt a thunderbolt and five thunderbolts on a sunny day, he stepped forward in disbelief, looked at Yuzhu who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "Yuzhu, do you know what you are talking about?" You"
"Lord Xiao, Yuzhu knows very well what he is talking about, if there is anything that has misunderstood the adults in the past, please forgive me." Yuzhu still didn't look at him, and she didn't look at him from beginning to end.
