At this time, Lu Jiayi didn't know that the hunger and cold she was facing now were just pediatrics, and there were more painful tortures waiting for her later.

The next day, the National Teacher's Mansion.

Yun Jiang entered the bedroom from the outside and said to Lu Nianjin, who was reading, "Girl, the old lady and mother and daughter have been taken away." ”

"Who is it?" Lu Nianjin put down the book, raised his head, raised his eyebrows and asked.

"It's Shaw."

"Shaw?" Lu Nianjin screamed suspiciously, and a touch of interest appeared on his face, "It turns out that it's dog eats dog again, just let her do nonsense!" ”

"Yes," Yun Jiang agreed, and stepped back.

A village outside the city.

Xiao Shi sat on the throne with a hideous face, looked at the old lady and Lu Jiayi who were kneeling on the ground with a embarrassed voice, and sneered, "Yan Wanqing, Lu Jiayi, didn't you expect you to have today?" ”

The old lady hugged Lu Jiayi tightly, she knew Xiao's hatred for her, she put down her defensive look at her, and asked, "What do you want?" ”

"What do I want?" Xiao Shi looked up to the sky and roared, "Yan Wanqing, you are smart, don't you know what I want to do?" ”

"You want to avenge Lu Nianshi?" The old lady asked tentatively.

When Xiao Xun heard Lu Nianshi's name, her expression became even more hideous, she stood up and rushed to the old lady, slapped her in the face hard, and said, "You vicious woman, you also have the face to mention my Shi'er's name!" ”

The old lady pursed her lips, her eyes lowered, and she turned slightly, she has lived for so many years, it doesn't matter if she dies, but Yi'er, she is still young, how can she die!

Xiao has served the old lady for so many years, and she knows her mind best, she saw the old lady's reaction in her eyes, but ignored her, but looked at Lu Jiayi, who was trembling all over, wanting to resent but not daring to resent, "Do you want to live?" ”

Lu Jiayi listened to Xiao Shi's question about her, nodded without hesitation, and said with bright eyes, "Think, I want to live!" ”

"Okay, I can give you a chance, as long as you kill Yan Wanqing, that is, this old thing next to you, I'll let you go, how about it?"

Lu Jiayi didn't expect Xiao Shi to put forward such a frenzied condition, she looked at the old lady in horror, the old lady hugged her shoulder, hugged her tighter, and whispered in her ear, "Yi'er, don't listen to her, she just wants to provoke our mother and daughter to kill each other and satisfy her perverted desire for revenge, you listen to your mother, don't be dominated by her, even if you do what she says, she won't let you go." ”

“…… Is it? Lu Jiayi's eyelids trembled, and she looked at Xiao Shi uncertainly.

Xiao Shi laughed and snorted coldly, "I thought the old lady loved you so much, but I didn't expect that when it came time to save her life, she could even say this kind of nonsense, Lu Jiayi, you can listen to her, but you have to pay for it, but your Qingqing's life!" As she spoke, she suddenly raised her hands and patted them vigorously.

The next moment, a short man walked in from outside, followed by four mastiffs with shiny hair and more than half a human height, each of which had a red glow in its eyes, which was clearly more ferocious than the two mastiffs raised in the Nanqiu Courtyard.

Lu Jiayi just watched from afar, the whole person was already empty, she desperately hid in the old lady's arms, "Mother, mother, I'm afraid, I don't want to die, you save me, you save me!" ”

When the old lady saw the four mastiffs, she also panicked, her eyes looked at Xiao Shi coldly, and asked, "Xiao Feng, what do you want!" ”

"What do I think, didn't I say it all?" Xiao Shi looked at the old lady with cold and mocking eyes and said, "If you really feel sorry for your precious daughter, you will let her kill you!" If she kills you, I'll let her go. ”

"You're dreaming!" The old lady roared, "Don't think I don't know what you're fighting...... Yes! ”

Before her words fell, she felt a sudden pain in her back, as if she had been pierced by something, she lowered her head and looked at the old lady in disbelief, "Yi'er, you, do you really want to kill your mother?" ”

Lu Jiayi stabbed the thin blade she picked up from the ground deeper, and shook her head at the old lady almost frantically, "Mother, I just don't want to die, I don't want to die!" ”

"......" The old lady was shocked and desperate and speechless.

And at this moment, Xiao suddenly clapped his palms and laughed loudly, "It turns out that this is your mother-daughter relationship, but pity my poetry, who paid for his life for such a hypocritical feeling!" Dog Three! At the end of the sentence, she snarled and called out to the short man next to her.

The man understood, whistled, and the next moment, the four mastiffs pounced on Lu Jiayi.

The old lady watched this scene with tears in her eyes......

Lu Jiayi could still let out a terrible scream at first, but when she got to the back, her voice became smaller and quieter until she was gone.

Because the old lady was close, she was also bitten by the mastiff a few times, and half of her arm was dripping with blood.

"Let's go!" After making sure that Lu Jiayi was out of breath, Xiao Shi looked at the old lady and said.

The old lady was shocked, "Are you willing to let me go?" ”

Xiao Shi coldly shook off the sentence that he loved not to leave, and left with the short man.

The old lady finally gained freedom, she knelt and crawled to Lu Jiayi, stroking her miserable corpse, tears like rain and said, "Yi'er, why are you so troubled, didn't my mother tell you, Xiao She can't let us go, why don't you listen to your mother," She knelt beside Lu Jiayi for a long time, until her mood calmed down, she simply bandaged her wound and stumbled out.

She wants to go back to the Chengguo Mansion, she wants to find Rong'er and Nianchen, and she wants them to avenge Jiayi.

But what she didn't expect was that when she didn't easily climb back to the Chengguo Mansion, the entire mansion was already a dead state, full of people who fell to the ground and bled from the seven knots, including her husband, her eldest son and eldest grandson.

"Rong'er, Rong'er, Nianchen......" she cried out miserably, and the whole person was going crazy.

Just when she was crying wolf, Yuan Tong led someone to walk in from outside, he looked at the old lady with a cold face, and said, "Someone reported the case, saying that the Siguo Bofu family was wiped out." ”

The old lady had suffered too many blows, and she couldn't care about her image, she threw herself on her knees towards Yuan Tong, hugged his legs tightly, and said, "Yuan Tongshangshu, you must, you must find out the murderer behind this incident, and avenge my son and my grandson!" ”

Yuan Tong coldly pulled back his leg from the old lady's hand, took two steps back, and said, "This is the duty of this official, but you, old lady, why are you here?" ”

"I," the old lady muttered for a long time with her eyes flickering, "I, it's nothing, I just want to come back and see." ”

"Really?" Yuan Tong looked suspicious, stared at her condescendingly and asked, "Come back and see what?" As far as this official knows, Uncle Si and Master Lu were very ruthless when they drove you away, so with your temperament of revenge and revenge, what did you come back to see them? ”

The old lady clenched her fingers tightly, and after thinking for a while, she tried to tell Lu Jiayi about being killed by the Xiao family, and said, "I came back to find Rong'er and Nianchen to help me take revenge, but I didn't expect that they would encounter an accident first." ”

Yuan Tong heard her say this, but he wrinkled his eyebrows and stared at her for a long time before turning to the head catcher behind him and said, "Huang San, you take someone to the place she said to have a look, and if there is a corpse, bring it back." ”

"Yes, sir!" Huang San was ordered to leave.

Yuan Tong instructed the other people, "Li Er, you take this old woman back to the yamen of the Criminal Department, and the rest of the people will investigate the scene with the official." ”

"Yes, sir!" The rest of the catchers gave up their orders, and the old lady was taken down without even having a chance to refute.

National Teacher's Mansion, when Lu Nianjin got the Lu family's full door to be destroyed, the glass cup with rose dew in his hand fell to the ground without noticing, Yun Jiang happened to be serving on the side, hurriedly lowered his head, fished the glass cup back, handed it to her again, and said, "Girl, be careful." ”

"Thank you." Lu Nianjin took the glass cup and looked at Yun Shu, "You say, the Lu family is full of heads, and there is no one alive?" ”

Yun Shu nodded solemnly, "Back to the girl's words, it is true, the entire Siguo Bofu is completely dead, and even those innocent domestic animals and birds have all been poisoned. ”

"It's so cruel," Lu Nianjin was a little sad, although there were a few hateful people in the Lu family, not all of them were bad to the bone, especially her uncle and cousin, in memory, they have always been the most upright people.

Who the hell is going to kill them so brutally!

Lu Nianjin thought about it for a long time, and suddenly, a spiritual light flew through her head, and she suddenly shrank her pupils, and said secretly, could it be the Xiao family?

"Ginger." Thinking like this, she looked at the maid beside her and shouted, Yun Jiang came back to her senses, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "The slave is here, I don't know what the girl commands?" ”

"After I said last time I didn't bother with Xiao Shi, you still let people stare at her?"

"Back to the girl's words, no," Yun Jiang shook his head.

In an instant, Lu Nianjin's face became even more gloomy, she lowered her voice, looked at her solemnly, and ordered, "Let people find Xiao's whereabouts immediately, if you can't find it, let people guard the place where Lu Nianshi's bones are buried, and be sure to find her." ”

"Yes! The slave and maid will arrange it," Yun Jiang said, turning and walking outside.

As soon as she went out with her front foot, Xiao Xun walked in from the outside with her back foot, and after sitting down beside her, he held her hand and asked distressedly, "Why is your face so bad?" ”

Lu Nianjin did not immediately answer Xiao Xun's question, but waved his hand at Yun Shu first.

Yun Shu was ordered to retreat, and Lu Nianjin opened his mouth and told the Lu family about the destruction of the door, and after speaking, he said, "I suspect that the murderer who poisoned the Lu family is the Xiao family." ”

Xiao Xun thought about it carefully, and at the end, he nodded, "Yes, judging from the current situation, she is indeed the most motivated person." ”

"Well, I've already asked Rue Jiang to look for her traces."

While the two were talking, Ah Yuan walked in from outside and said, "The prince, the princess, the princess has come here, saying that he is inviting the prince to the study to discuss matters." ”

"There you go!" Lu Nianjin looked at Xiao Xun.

Xiao Xun gently squeezed it in her palm, "It should also be for the Lu family's business, you have a good rest, I'll come when I go." ”

"Hmm." Lu Nianjin nodded, wanting to get up and send Xiao Xun away, but was held down by Xiao Xun, he lowered his head, looked at her with swaying eyebrows, and said, "You don't have to get up, I'll just go by myself." ”

Lu Nianjin smiled and watched him walk out.

entered the study, and sure enough, it was Yuan Tong and Xiao Ke who visited, talking about the Lu family's case.

Xiao Xun raised his eyebrows slightly after listening to what the two of them said, "Yan Wanqing said that Lu Jiayi was killed in a farm outside the city, but you sent someone to find it, that farm didn't exist at all, and there were no corpses around, and at the same time, all the clues in the Bo Mansion showed that the person who poisoned it was Yan Wanqing?" ”

Yuan Tong arched his hand, "Back to the prince's words, yes!" ”

"That's right," Xiao Xun thought about the discussion he had with Lu Nianjin just now, his fingers flexed, and he gently tapped on the table, "You just need to track it in the direction of Second Lady Lu's Xiao Clan, and you will definitely not make a mistake." ”

"Really?" Yuan Tong asked rhetorically.

Xiao Xun raised his eyebrows, "Otherwise, this palace will make a fortune for you?" ”

Yuan Tong: "......"

Xiao Ke, who was sitting on the side drinking tea, "Okay, good!" I've never seen you tell a fortune divination, big brother! ”

Xiao Xun glanced at Xiao Ke, "Then the palace will give you another hexagram?" As he spoke, he carefully examined Xiao Ke's face, and then his face became wrong at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.

"Big brother, what is your expression?" Xiao Ke thought that Xiao Xun was joking with him, and asked with a smile, "Wouldn't it be that I really have some bloody disaster?" ”

Xiao Xun was silent, he glanced at Yuan Tong on the side again, and said solemnly, "If you two go in time, maybe you can see your younger siblings for the last time." ”

"What!"

"Big brother, what do you mean, what do you mean?"

After listening to Xiao Xun's words, Yuan Tong and Xiao Ke changed their faces at the same time.

Xiao Xun sighed heavily, "It's literal, her brother and sister are in trouble, and it's a matter of life and death." ”

"Is this true?" Xiao Ke was still asking, but Yuan Tong had already turned around and ran out.

Seeing this, Xiao Ke didn't have time to ask more, he turned his head and chased after Yuan Tong.

Yuan Tong is self-disciplined, and his light skills are better than Xiao Ke, I don't know how much, yes, he arrived half an hour earlier than Xiao Ke, and with Xiao Xun's words as the foundation, he even saved the report, and went straight to her bedroom when he entered his sister's yard.

In the bedroom, Yuan Qin was lying on the bed with her face as white as paper, her lower body was bleeding, and the maidservants on the side were crying with red eyes.

"Sister!" Yuan Tong rushed towards Yuan Qin, "How about you, I'll go get a doctor, I'll go get a doctor for you now," he said, turning around and leaving.

Yuan Qin only grabbed his hand and said, "Big brother, it's useless, I know I can't hold on, you don't have to waste your hard work, I can add you before I die, I'm already very satisfied." ”

"Sister," Yuan Tong's eyes were red, and he suddenly knelt down beside Yuan Qin's bed, "Sister, brother-in-law is behind, he will come back soon, soon, soon, ......"

"But I'm afraid I can't wait for him," Yuan Qin cried and said weakly, her eyes already glazed.

"Sister, sister!" Yuan Tong shouted restrainedly, tears and snot on his face.

Yuan Qin raised his hand to help him wipe it off, but when his hand was raised to the average, he no longer had the strength and hung down in despair.

"Sister!" Yuan Tong howled loudly and was overwhelmed with grief.

After Yuan Qin completely swallowed his breath, Xiao Ke rushed back, his face was flushed, he was panting, he ran to Yuan Qin's bedside, and stretched out to Yuan Qin's nose in disbelief and disbelief.

"Ah Qin-" He fell to his knees suddenly, tears falling quickly, "Ah Qin, how can this be, how can this be, I just left for a moment, how can you ...... How can we be separated by yin and yang. ”

"My lord, it's Aunt Tang!" Finally waited for Xiao Ke to come back, the maid beside Yuan Qin couldn't hold back any longer, and complained hoarsely, "It's her, it's she who killed Madame." ”

"Is it Tang Shui?" Xiao Ke turned his head and asked angrily. After saying that, he didn't even bother to listen to the process, and walked out with his legs.

Yuan Tong's pupils shrank, and he also chased after him.

On the water side.

Tang Shui was kneeling in the small Buddha hall and praying, the door of the small Buddha hall was suddenly kicked open from the outside, Tang Shui clenched the Buddha beads in his hand, and when he turned around, he saw Xiao Ke and Yuan Tong with a cold face.

"Xianggong," Tang Shui called out, got up and walked towards Xiao Ke.

Xiao Ke didn't even think about it, he raised his hand and slapped her in the face, "Poisonous woman!" ”

Tang Shui lowered his head and said aggrieved in tears, "What do you mean by Xianggong, did I do something wrong?" As she spoke, she had to explain again, but Yuan Tong behind Xiao Ke didn't give her this opportunity, Yuan Tong stepped forward directly and slashed at Tang Shui.

Tang Shui subconsciously flew to block, Xiao Ke looked at this scene, and his whole face changed, Tang Shui's skills were so good? Why didn't he know how much she was still hiding from him?

While he was thinking about it, Yuan Tong held the Tang knife in his hand, and one move became more and more powerful, and finally after hundreds of moves, he forced Tang Shui to the top of the Buddha Hall, and at the moment when her movements slowed down, she raised the knife and slashed directly-

Until Tang Shui died, he didn't expect that it would be Yuan Tong, a criminal department scholar who specializes in law, who killed her.

The woman's dirty blood sprayed Yuan Tong's face, Yuan Tong sneered and wiped the blood off his face with his sleeve, looked back at Xiao Ke, and said coldly, "No, a man, Aqin, I will take her back to Yuan's house." With that, he pulled his legs and walked out.

Xiao Ke hurriedly chased after him, he reached out to grab Yuan Tong, "Ah Qin is my wife." ”

"You don't deserve it," Yuan Tong didn't look back, he slashed with a knife, Xiao Ke reacted that if he was one step slower, his right arm would be separated from his torso.

"Yuan Tong, you're real!" Xiao Ke chased after him again and roared angrily.

The corners of Yuan Tong's mouth hooked up a sneer, stopped, and said without looking back, "Do you remember what you said when you asked to marry my sister?" ”

“…… I don't want to be born on the same day, the same month, the same year, I just want to be able to die on the same day, the same month, and the same year. ”

Xiao Ke fell into memory.

The words are still in my ears, but now they are no longer human.

He didn't chase after him anymore, and let Yuan Tong bring Yuan Qin's body back to Yuan's house.

In the National Teacher's Mansion, Xiao Xun's mood was not very good.

He doesn't know what kind of physique he is, anyway, as long as he tells fortunes, he doesn't have anything to criticize. This time it was even more ruthless, and it was directly counted on the head of the good brother.

"Go and get the wine," after a long time, he still couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart, and ordered the minister.

Laichen sighed in his heart and retreated.

About half an hour later, Lu Nianjin entered the study.

When Xiao Xun saw her, his face suddenly became ugly.

Lu Nianjin held his waist with a look of displeasure, "You don't want to see me?" ”

"No," Xiao Xun said in a deep voice, pausing slightly, and he gritted his teeth and asked rhetorically, "Did the minister call you here?" ”

"No," Lu Nianjin was grateful to the minister, so he naturally wanted to cover it up for him, "I saw that he brought the wine over, so I asked more." ”

"Hmph," Xiao Xun glanced up at her and snorted coldly.

"I already know everything," she walked up to him, hugged him gently, "No wonder yours, heaven is constant, not for Yao, not for death, everyone has their own life, you and I are mortals, even if we lose a little bit of heaven, we can't change our lives against the sky." ”

"There is a saying, the heavenly function cannot be changed."

"Can you guess the heavenly machine and can't change?" Xiao Xun frowned and repeated this sentence.

Lu Nianjin snorted, "If you don't feel happy, I'll go out for a walk with you?" ”

Xiao Xun nodded, stood up, and the two held hands and walked out together.

Qianyuan Palace, a few hours later, the news of Yuan Qin's death was handed over.

After reading the excerpt, the emperor took a deep breath, "Zhou Zhi's daughter-in-law, such a good person, it's a pity!" ”

Gonggong Fu also frowned, and said, "The slave remembers, that Mrs. Xiao is a first-class good person, and she has a good temper. ”

"It's just that the temper of the Yuan family is a little harder," After a while, the emperor said again, and it could be seen that he was still a little dissatisfied with Yuan Tong's practice of taking Yuan Qin's corpse.

It's not easy for this Fu Gonggong to agree, but fortunately, the emperor didn't expect him to answer. Twisting his head, he directly instructed him, "The case of the Lu family was originally investigated by Yuan Tong, and since it is inconvenient for him now, he will be handed over to Dali Temple and trained by De'er." ”

Recently, Xiao De, the third prince, is practicing in Dali Temple.

In the political hall, after getting the emperor's will, he immediately went out of the palace and went to the criminal department, and took the old lady and other government affairs from the hands of the servants of the criminal department.

In the National Teacher's Mansion, Lu Nianjin and Xiao Xun were walking in the courtyard, talking, and snowflakes with goose feathers suddenly floated in the sky.

Lu Nianjin looked at the white snowflakes, couldn't help but reach out to pick them up, and sighed in a low voice, "It's so beautiful." ”

Xiao Xun looked at her like this, and his heart that had been blocked finally relaxed a little, and he glanced at her dotingly, "Do you like snowmen?" ”

"I like it!" Lu Nianjin turned his head, smiling like a flower.

Xiao Xun was in a trance, and then he hooked his lips, his handsome face like a god seemed to be the beginning of melting ice and snow, and the spring branches were sprouting, "Let me build a snowman to show you." ”

"No, I'm going to build it myself," Lu Nianjin tried to make him laugh.

Xiao Xun was so wise that he couldn't feel it, his smile became softer and softer, "Okay, I'll accompany you." ”

"Well," Lu Nianjin nodded, paused, approached him again, helped him warm his hands, and asked, "Is it cold?" Do you want to go back? ”

"No need," Xiao Xun shook his head and looked into her eyes, "I like snow too." ”

You love snow.

I also love snow.

Rounding up, I'm confessing to you.

Xiao Xun's words were vague, but Lu Nianjin suddenly understood, she blushed slightly, and let go of his hand, "Let's go back!" ”
