Chapter 124: Don't Die Before Me
"What does it smell like?"
Su Li asked keenly, since she had suffered a loss in Zhao'an Building, she had been very alert to these smells, but Chu Huai'an hugged her, and could only smell the fragrance on her body with a heart, where else could she smell anything else?
Not to mention Chu Lingxi, all his mind was occupied by anger and the two people in front of him, and he couldn't notice anything else at all.
However, although the two of them didn't smell anything, they trusted Su Li very much, and they both concentrated on sniffing carefully.
"It doesn't smell good." Chu Lingxi said helplessly, but Chu Huaian said seriously: "I smell it!" β
"What does it smell like?"
"Li's body fragrance!"
Chu Lingxi: "......"
This disciple who is dressed as a rogue and plays a hooligan, please get away from it!
Su Li: "......"
Master Hou, if you go out to talk like this, it's really easy to get beaten.
Under the forced gaze of Chu Lingxi and Su Li, Chu Huai'an touched the tip of his nose and let go of Su Li with the last bit of shame: "I'm just kidding, I didn't smell anything special." β
In fact, Su Li only smelled it for a moment, and she couldn't smell it anymore.
Seeing that Chu Lingxi and Chu Huai'an's faces were as usual, and there was no reaction to suspected poisoning, Su Li breathed a sigh of relief: "Maybe I'm too nervous and smelled wrong." β
Su Li said this and didn't want Chu Lingxi to be too stressed, after all, he had had a smooth life over the years, and he had never encountered such a thing, so it would be bad if he was worried.
Chu Huai'an's eyes flashed, knowing what Su Li was thinking, he didn't debunk it, and pulled the topic back with a smile: "Ah Li, you have learned badly, you actually used this method to divert my attention, what happened just now is not over, as a woman to be married, I don't tell my fiancΓ©, and I go out to travel with the older single and good-looking King Huaiyang without permission, what should I do?!" β
ββ¦β¦ Master Hou, this is not the relationship between us. β
Su Li reminded in a whisper, she clearly remembered that she did not agree to marry him.
Chu Huai'an naturally remembered this incident, not only remembered, but also very annoyed.
Originally, he wanted Su Li to figure it out slowly and feel his sincerity, but today he was so frightened that he couldn't hold his breath anymore.
How could he wait for Su Li to figure it out slowly, who knows how long it would take her to figure it out, in case she was abducted by someone else in the process!
He had to find a way to tie people to himself first, preferably with chains made of dark iron, and tie them firmly, and they wouldn't be separated even if they were killed!
Having made up his mind, Chu Huai'an sat down according to Su Li, and commanded in a loud voice: "Come here, bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone!" After speaking, he raised his chin at Chu Lingxi: "There is no one else here today, so I can only cheapen you." β
Chu Lingxi: "......"
What do I have to cheapen? I'm just an old, single, and good-looking idle prince.
Su Li felt that after arriving in Lizhou, Chu Huai'an's behavior became more and more elusive.
"Master Hou, what do you want pen, ink, paper and inkstone for?"
"Bring it and you'll know." Chu Huai'an replied with the old god here, his eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his lips raised, and he let out a little smile, but the smile made Su Li's heart furious.
The guards quickly sent pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Chu Huai'an asked Su Li to study ink, grabbed the pen and filled it with ink, waved his big hand, and dropped two big characters on the white paper: Marriage book!
Su Li's movement of grinding ink suddenly froze.
Chu Huai'an's words have always been a wild and hasty school, neither practicing form nor heart, opening his teeth and dancing claws, Su Li didn't know when he practiced calligraphy, and he actually wrote the word 'marriage book' very beautifully.
The pen is sharp and decisive, but it is very mellow and tortuous, tender and delicate.
It seems that these two words have been practiced countless times with all his effort and feelings.
"Although the marriage event needs the words of the matchmaker of the parents, but now there is no one else in the Su family, before those false courtesies, this paper marriage book is the most real, I am happy with Ah Li, and I should express my sincerity with this."
Chu Huaian said seriously, didn't raise his head, and dipped the ink again and continued to write:
In this life, there is a female Su family Ali, beautiful appearance, wisdom, messing with my mind, hooking my soul, I am willing to ask to marry as a wife, devote the rest of my life to the love of love, the pet of love, and never look at others! This world of love will not be negative!
After writing the last stroke, Chu Huai'an put down the pen, took out the private seal he carried with him from his waist and took a sigh of relief and prepared to cover it, but stopped halfway.
Su Li's heart hung with this marriage letter, and when she saw him put down her private seal, she hurriedly spoke: "Master Hou, although the Su family has no one else, Mrs. Zhaoling is still safe and healthy, should you discuss such a major matter with her first?" β
"It's like this whether you negotiate or not, it's me who wants to marry you, and it's not my mother who wants to marry you!" Chu Huai'an replied categorically, and then remembered what happened when he was drunk five years ago, and frowned slightly: "If you still care about the incident of that night five years ago, we will move out after marriage, and we don't need you to give my mother a morning and dusk!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Master Hou, you call this a great rebellion, do you know?
Su Li was speechless, Chu Huaian thought that he had said what she was thinking, grabbed her wrist and said firmly: "Don't worry, I will never let anyone embarrass you in the future!" β
He deliberately accentuated the word 'anyone' to include the Chu Liu clan and even the Queen Mother.
"Master Hou, you misunderstood, I have already let go of the past."
Su Li lowered her eyes, withdrew her hand, Chu Huai'an didn't stop it, bit the index finger of her left hand and dripped two drops of blood on the table, and then dipped it with the thumb of her right hand, and pressed a clear handprint on the marriage book.
"Xiao Xizi, it's your turn!"
ββ¦β¦β
Chu Lingxi frowned twice, quite disapproving: "Sincerely, marriage is a big matter, you should ask for a happy relationship, and now you ......"
"How is it that Ah Li and I are not in love? Now it is true that I am pleased with her first, and when she understands my sincerity, she will be pleased with me, but it is only later, as a husband and king, I still have this belly. β
He can like her first, or he can wait for her to respond to his liking later, which is not something that cannot be tolerated.
Chu Huai'an said firmly, Chu Lingxi wanted to speak and stopped, what if after seeing his sincerity, Su Li still didn't like him? Isn't this marriage a bad fate?
Knowing that Chu Huai'an is now sincere, if he tells the truth, it will hurt his heart, Chu Lingxi looked at Su Li seriously: "Ah Li, in terms of identity, I am now the king of Huaiyang, in terms of affection, I have also had a friendship with you, it is completely okay to testify about your marriage letter with Jinzhi, are you willing to let me do this testimony?" β
Chu Lingxi asked tactfully, but the implication was to ask Su Li if she was willing to accept this marriage.
Su Li was just about to answer, Chu Huai'an grabbed her hand tightly, and pretended to be relaxed: "It's just a marriage book, and it's not about to get married, you dare to return the dowry I asked people to bring to the door, even if you write this marriage book, if you really don't like it, you can still return, right?" β
His tone was deliberately brisk, but there was a lack of confidence in his eyes, hoping that she would be able to make this marriage letter, but he was afraid of being rejected by her.
Obviously, it was a promise in the marriage letter he took the initiative to write, but now it seems that he put down his identity and status as a marquis and asked Su Li for a promise that he would marry him.
Su Li inexplicably thought that many years ago, she was ignorant of things, and asked He'er to lead away the little guy around him, pulled him to the back garden of Shangshu Mansion, and threatened him behind the rockery, asking him not to approach his eldest sister again, and not to have any dirty thoughts, otherwise he would go to the palace to expose him.
At that time, she didn't know what was going on, and he was just in love, happy but forbearant and restrained like someone, so she was ruthlessly exposed, not to mention, and was said to be a dirty mind, a handsome face was red and white, although in the end he pulled his face and taught a good lesson, now I think about it is just the annoyance and anger of the young man after the secret was exposed.
In fact, he has always been like this, sometimes he looks fierce, but he is just hiding his fear.
After many years of leaving, her eyes have not changed, and he is as sincere as a teenager, maybe he is destined to be entangled for a lifetime.
Su Li thought about it, her heart softened, and she was burned by his hand holding her tightly.
"Master Hou is right."
Su Li replied softly, put aside the marriage letter written by Chu Huai'an, dipped the pen in ink, and wrote down his share according to what he had just written.
In this life, there is Lang Chu Huai'an, the word is cautious, although you are a free marquis, do not think that my reputation is ruined, do not abandon my appearance is damaged, treat him sincerely, I am willing to marry him as a wife, devote the rest of my life to the best of my life, and respect the companion of the joy of the faith! If there is a concubine who serves the concubine, he should treat each other kindly, get along in harmony, and stabilize the back house!
Chu Huai'an couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Su Li writing the marriage book, but when he saw the last sentence, his face suddenly darkened.
What concubines are out of the house? Didn't he say that she would be the only one in the future, and he wouldn't look at others again?
Did she not believe him, or did she already think that he was a sentimental and unfocused person?
The more Chu Huaian thought about it, the more angry he became, but he was afraid that there would be another incident, so he could only endure it, and he didn't dare to let Su Li write another copy.
Su Li put down the pen after writing, blew for a while, waited for the ink to dry a little, and was about to bite through the fingertips and press the handprint, but Chu Huai'an grabbed his hand and pressed the index finger on Su Li's right thumb with the index finger on his hand.
"With my blood!"
He said in a deep voice, his expression was serious, and when he pressed hard, red blood gushed out of his fingertips that moistened Su Li.
Ten fingers are connected to the heart, and if you press the wound so hard, it will hurt no matter what.
The blood gushing out was warm, and the moment the fingertips were wet, Su Li's fingertips hurt inexplicably, and the handprints that should have been covered on the marriage book seemed to be covered with pain all of a sudden, and suddenly there was an illusion that husband and wife were the same body and the perception was connected.
Because he was in pain, she was in pain too.
Su Li was in a trance, Chu Huai'an had let go of her hand, Su Li put aside her inexplicable emotions and pressed her own handprints on the two marriage documents, and Chu Huai'an also pressed her own handprints on hers.
I don't know if it's intentional or not, Chu Huai'an's handprint was pressed very close to her, which made people look at it for no reason and give birth to the illusion that these were two people lingering.
Su Li's face was slightly hot, Chu Huai'an kept staring at her, and immediately found that her face was flushed, and she sucked on the hurt smile on her fingertips and asked, "Ah Li, what are you thinking, why is your face so red?" β
As he asked, he deliberately licked his fingertips, and his red lips and teeth were combined with his fingertips, and he suddenly turned gloomy.
Su Li's heart was beating, and she hurriedly looked at Chu Lingxi: "There is Lord Lao to help us testify!" β
Chu Lingxi took in the interaction between Su Li and Chu Huai'an, although he was still a little worried about Su Li's previous confusion, but he didn't stop it too much, and wrote down his wishes: May the two get married early, grow old together, and never give up!
After writing, Chu Lingxi took out his private seal and stamped it.
His private seal is engraved very beautifully, and the lines in a circle are not the royal family's Rui beasts and auspicious clouds, but beautiful unknown branches and vines, which immediately make these two marriage books a little more beautiful after being covered.
Su Li saw that the arabesque was a little familiar, and she couldn't remember where she had seen it for a while, and was about to take a closer look, when Chu Huaian quickly reached out and put away the two marriage books.
"What do you see, the marriage book is written, the seal is also stamped, and you can't change the hexagram casually!"
ββ¦β¦β
Master Hou, you are the one who can change his hexagram at any time, didn't you just say that you can get out of the marriage just now if you write a marriage certificate?
Su Li slandered, and saw Chu Huai'an stuffing the two marriage books into his arms, and reminded him: "Master Hou, the marriage book is generally two, and both men and women hold one each, you ......."
"I'll keep it for you first, and I'll give it to you when I get married when I get married when I return to Beijing!"
Chu Huai'an said as a matter of course, and patted his chest twice, as if to confirm whether the marriage certificate was lying in his arms safely.
Su Li had no choice but to let him go.
Chu Huai'an got the marriage certificate, and his heart was more confident than before, he took Su Li's hand and didn't let go, the corners of his lips rose uncontrollably, and he smiled like a second fool.
He and Ah Li have a marriage certificate, and Ah Li agrees to marry him!
After returning to Beijing, he can marry Ah Li, and after marriage, he can ...... Well!? Bridal chamber?
His thoughts drifted in an indescribable direction, Chu Huai'an's body tensed and heated, and the hand holding Su Li also tightened, and his palms were soaked with sweat.
"Master Hou?"
Su Li was puzzled, there was a noise outside the window, Su Li immediately stood up and walked to the window, and at a glance saw a large group of people gathered by the river, those people were holding sticks in their hands, pushing and scolding as if there was some conflict to fight.
"The people by the river are going to fight, I'm afraid we have to go over and have a look, otherwise there may be chaos." Su Li said calmly, and Yu Guang saw that those people had already started to move.
"Good!" Chu Lingxi responded and prepared to go out with Su Li, but Chu Huaian looked dissatisfied: "What about me? You guys when I don't exist? β
"There is Hou Ye Lao who will go back to the state capital as soon as possible and bring some government errands to control the situation, I am afraid that only these few guards brought out by the prince will not be able to suppress these people."
If you go back and call someone, you can do it by calling a guard, and maybe you can be faster than Chu Huai'an, Su Li obviously doesn't want Chu Huai'an to go.
Chu Huai'an raised his eyebrows, stepped forward and grabbed Su Li's waist, leaned into her ear and whispered, "Ah Li is worried about being a husband?" β
He said with a smile in his words, and he didn't need Su Li to answer, his heart was already happy.
The warm breath hit the pinna, scratching a slight itch, Su Li shrunk her neck uncomfortably, knowing that this person would not leave easily, so she no longer insisted, and said to Chu Lingxi: "Please send someone back to the state capital to transfer some government messengers." β
As they spoke, the three of them had already walked downstairs, and the originally full teahouse was empty, and they all ran outside to watch the excitement.
Su Li swept around and saw an iron tray on one of the tables, which should be the thing that the storyteller was going to receive a reward for silver on weekdays, so she took it with her hand, and picked up a wooden stick on the side of the road after going out.
Chu Lingxi took all the guards behind him, plus the seven or eight guards that Chu Huai'an brought out of the mansion, there were only a dozen or so people in total.
"No matter what happens for a while, it is important to protect the prince."
Su Li instructed the guards, and Chu Lingxi immediately frowned: "They all protect me, what should Ah Li and Jinzhi do?" β
Before Su Li could speak, Chu Huaian had already snorted angrily: "What do you mean?" Does my daughter-in-law need another man to protect her? β
ββ¦β¦β
Chu Lingxi pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Su Li paid attention to the situation in front of her, and did not refute Chu Huai'an's words, and only heard the onlookers say something like dead from a distance, and it was not clear who died and why she died.
After walking a little further, he couldn't go any further, Chu Lingxi asked the guards to step forward to open the way, but there were too many people, and it was not easy to walk, Su Li handed the tray and wooden stick to one of the guards.
"Knock until everybody is quiet."
Su Li commanded, the guard struck hard, the sound was not much less than the sound of the gong, and after a while, the crowd spontaneously gave way, and those who were fighting with sticks also separated.
Everyone didn't recognize Chu Huai'an and Chu Lingxi, but they recognized Su Li's red clothes, after all, at today's river sacrifice ceremony, Su Li's limelight was not small.
Shocking everyone, Su Li raised her hand to let the guards stop, and retreated to the side with Chu Huai'an, letting Chu Lingxi go first, while the guards shouted: "The King of Huaiyang has arrived!" β
This is Chu Lingxi's fiefdom, and if anything happens, Chu Lingxi should be powerful, and Chu Huaian can't be allowed to steal his limelight.
Someone recognized Chu Lingxi as the person who opened the sacrifice today, and immediately knelt down to greet him.
"The grass people meet the King of Huaiyang!"
Someone took the lead, and the others also hesitated to kneel down, the situation calmed down a little, Chu Lingxi took Su Li and Chu Huai'an to the point where everyone watched the incident.
In just a moment, these people were already bruised and swollen, but the clothes they were wearing had the surnames of the heads of each family written on them, which was very recognizable.
The servants of the Yue, Wang, and Su families are all gathered here, and from the perspective of the position, it should be the Yue and Wang families who joined forces to fight the Su family, so the servants of the Su family were also the most injured and miserable.
"What happened? Today's ritual of sacrificing to the river is not over, so you are not afraid of the Jiang God's blame for picking quarrels and provoking trouble? β
Chu Lingxi asked coldly, knowing that they were still using living people to sacrifice to the Jiang God, and the words he said were full of mockery.
The heads of the three families were not there, these people all lowered their heads and did not speak, and after a while, a woman with a white cloth wrapped around her head stumbled away from everyone and knelt in front of Chu Lingxi with a pop.
"The women are wronged, ask the prince to make the decisions for the women!"
The woman was very old, very well maintained, and her clothes were of fine material and fashionable style, and she cried so much that she was very pitiful.
Chu Lingxi didn't have the heart to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, he was already angry, and when the woman cried, he was even more irritable: "Crying can't solve any problems, what happened, don't tell the truth quickly!" β
The woman was stunned by the roar, Xu didn't expect the rumored elegant and amiable King Huaiyang to be like this.
When the woman was stunned, a little girl in green rushed over and knelt down, and said eloquently: "Ask the prince to be the master of the young lady, the second young master of my family snatched the jackpot in the river today and was killed by the Su family's tricks!" β
This little maid looked no more than twelve or thirteen, but she was extremely calm and spoke clearly, much better than the young lady.
After the little girl finished speaking, the servant who was fighting here immediately echoed: "That's it!" Our second young master was killed, and he must pay for the poisonous woman of the Su family! β
Su Li followed the sound and looked over, only to see that the clothes on the clothes of those servants were embroidered with the word 'Wang', which showed that it was the second young master of the Wang family who died.
"Where is the corpse of your second young master?"
Su Li asked softly, the woman's maid and the servants of the Wang family all looked at Su Li in surprise, and they were dissatisfied in their hearts, but they saw that there was a handsome man standing next to Su Li, and the man was holding Su Li's waist without hesitation, and he looked arrogant and evil, obviously he should have a very underbeat expression, but he was inexplicably thought that he was not easy to mess with.
With him protecting Su Li, everyone could only silently swallow their dissatisfaction with Su Li, those servants slightly let go, and Su Li saw that there was a step behind them to go down the river, and on the last few steps there was a corpse, covered with a white cloth.
"Bring the corpse up!"
Chu Lingxi ordered that the people of the Wang family immediately carry the body to it.
In the end, it was a dead body, just after the New Year, no one wanted to be contaminated, and the onlookers all retreated, but gave up the space.
Su Li stepped forward to open the white cloth and saw a plain face, I don't know if it is usually too pampered, or easy to gain weight, this second young master Wang is not only white but also very fat.
Su Li took a cursory look and found no obvious fatal injuries, and was about to take off all the white cloth to take a look, but was stopped by Chu Huai'an: "The autopsy is a fake thing." β
His face was not very good-looking, Su Li didn't think about the reason, but she was really not proficient in the autopsy, and she didn't act recklessly, and obediently covered the white cloth.
Chu Huai'an's face was a little better, and he remembered Su Li in his heart, this woman is really no longer a male and female defense, just now the white cloth is a little bit back, and she is going to see that man!
That man is fat and ugly, can't he get a needle's eye when he looks at it?
Chu Huai'an muttered in his heart, Su Li's attention had shifted to the second young lady of the Wang family.
"Young lady, your husband is here, don't you want to see him?"
Su Li reminded that the woman looked at the corpse with tears in her eyes, hesitation flashed in her eyes, and the green-clothed maid hurriedly bumped her elbow with her elbow, and the woman threw herself on the corpse and cried: "Husband, you are gone like this, how can the slave family live!" Husband! How can you be so ruthless and leave the slave family behind......"
The woman wept so hard that she was almost hoarse, and the green-clothed maid knelt beside her and wept bitterly.
Everyone was so pitiful that they cried, but Su Li could see it clearly, this woman seemed to be in love with the second young master of the king, and her feelings were very deep, and after rushing over, she never opened the white cloth to see the face of the deceased.
The body's reaction was nothing compared to the affection and friendship in her mouth.
Su Li was thinking about it, Chu Huai'an pinched her waist and raised her head, this person looked at her seriously: "If it was me lying here, what would you do?" β
He did not shy away from using himself as a hypothesis, Su Li thought carefully and replied: "I will first open the white cloth to confirm whether this is you, and then confirm whether you have no heartbeat, even if it is gone, I will try all the methods I can think of to see if I can wake you up, if not, I can't ......"
Su Li stopped, the cry in his ear gradually faded away, and all his thoughts were absorbed by his dark, focused and deep eyes.
With a sharp pain in his heart, Su Li grabbed his arm and said, "You are not allowed to die in front of me!" β
She has seen too much life and death, experienced too much life and death, and doesn't want to go through it again.
Chu Huai'an originally listened to it with relish, but was caught by Su Li, and when he saw the panic in her eyes, he was immediately distressed, and hurriedly hugged her tighter: "Okay, I won't die in front of you!" β
He assured very seriously, and his hand was tightened so tightly that Su Li's sudden sadness dissipated little by little.
She knew that he had always valued integrity, and since he had promised her, he would definitely do it.
The heart was slightly relieved, and the people next to him had already made a fuss: "I think the eldest lady of the Su family is a demon woman, where can ordinary people hold it in the water for so long, she killed her two elder brothers, and killed the second young master of the Wang family, maybe even the third young master of our family was killed!" β
It was the servants of the Yue family who spoke, their expressions were vicious, and they had already convicted the eldest lady of the Su family first.
"Fuck you! The eldest girl in my family will not do such things as making money and killing people, it is obvious that you are bullying her! The servant of the Su family retorted, blushing with anger and having a thick neck.
These shameless dogs, seeing that their eldest lady won the jackpot, began to play scoundrels, and their hearts were black!
Everyone, you say a word, and you are about to fight again, Chu Lingxi snatched the iron plate in the guard's hand and knocked it twice.
"Enough! There are many strange things in this case, this king is in charge, and Zhao De, the state capital, was ordered to investigate and handle it, and with a deadline of one month, you will be given justice! β
Chu Lingxi said categorically, his face was so dark.
This year's sacrificial ceremony happened to him, only this one, so many lives were implicated, and I don't know how many people were harmed in previous years, in vain he thought that the people on his fiefdom were living and working in peace and contentment, and he had never seen any bloody rain.
It stands to reason that the king of Huaiyang personally spoke, and everyone should follow it, but after these people listened, they looked at each other, and no one responded.
"What? And you will not listen to what this king says? β
Chu Lingxi asked in a cold voice, everyone's eyes dodged and they didn't dare to look at him, and for a long time, the green-clothed maid said timidly: "Qi ...... Lord Qiqi, according to the old practice, if there is an accident during the sacrifice to the river, it should ...... When the elders are asked to clarify the god of the river, they will ...... again and then adjudicate. β
It's that elder again, is that elder older than him, the king of Huaiyang, in Lizhou?
Seeing that Chu Lingxi was about to be furious, Su Li pulled his hand and shook his head at him.
Today is a big day to worship the river, and no one can stand out from the limelight of the elder, so it is not a good time to question and suppress him.
"It was also the second young lady who cried too desolately, and kept begging the prince to make the decision for her, which made the prince love the people and wanted to bother to meddle in this matter, since you have old rules, then act according to your rules first, and let Lord Zhao assist from the side to show fairness, what does the second young lady think?"
Su Li said unhurriedly, straighten things out, and put Chu Lingxi to the height of being close to the people and loving the people.
The second young lady paused, the green maid quickly lifted her eyes and glanced at Su Li, and unexpectedly saw Su Li looking at herself with sharp eyes, and immediately lowered her head, the second young lady suddenly looked like a fly without a head, and did not dare to answer easily, and couldn't help but look at the people of the Yue family.
"The young master of my family has not been found yet, so I can't let go of the Su family so easily!"
One of the servants of the Yue family said loudly, and before the others could echo it, they heard Su Li say coldly: "If the person is not found, then he is still in the river, since you are so loyal, you should see people die and see corpses, instead of making trouble here, it is better to send more people to search in the river, maybe you can save the life of your young master!" β
"That's it! I see that you clearly don't want to care about the life or death of your young master, you just want to find fault! β
"Maybe the third young master of Yue is not dead at all, but you have hidden it and deliberately framed us!"
The servants of the Su family all helped Su Li speak, and by default Su Li was helping them.
The situation took a sharp turn, and the people of the Yue family gradually became untenable, and at this time, the guards sent out rushed with the state government, and the green-clothed maid still couldn't hold her breath after all, and hit the second young lady with her elbow, and the woman immediately fell to the ground and thanked her: "The foolish woman listens to the prince, and waits for the elders to give the women justice!" β
The bitter lord who died was relieved, and the Yue family naturally couldn't carry it anymore, and when they saw that the house was alarmed, everyone had to disperse.
The guards brought by Chu Lingxi were on the side, and Chu Lingxi, Su Li, and Chu Huai'an walked to the riverside together, and there were many people on the river rocking boats and throwing food for sacrifice.
"It's just come out, what does Ah Li think?"
Chu Lingxi asked in a low voice, clearly not knowing where Su Li had gone and what she had done in the past five years, but he subconsciously trusted her.
"The relationship between the second young master of the Wang family and the young lady is not as good as she said, and the young lady and the green-clothed maid are even more reversed, the master is not like the master, and the servant is not like a servant."
Chu Lingxi just looked at the woman crying, and faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't say the specifics, and when he heard Su Li say this, he immediately understood.
"Ah Li thinks who is behind the troublemaker?"
"I don't know."
Su Li said frankly that there are too many ghosts behind Lizhou, and based on this observation for most of the day, Su Li does not have that much ability to see the key to the problem at once.
Chu Lingxi also knew that he was too eager, he looked up at the wide river, and exhaled heavily.
"When I first came to Lizhou, I only felt that the Li River was magnificent and beautiful, and later I knew that many innocent people were buried in this river, and I felt that this river was just a cannibal grotto dressed in a beautiful coat, if there is really a river god in this river, I am afraid it is just an evil god who does a lot of evil!"
"There are no ghosts or gods in this world." Su Li said affirmatively.
If there were ghosts and gods, this battle with the Hu people would not have been fought so tragically.
If there are ghosts and gods, the second sister should also tell her in a dream where the rest of the corpses were taken by An Jue.
Su Li's tone was very sure, Chu Lingxi was immediately persuaded, turned his head to look at Su Li, his eyes were admired, and the next moment, Chu Huai'an took Su Li into his arms, turned his back to Chu Lingxi, and was proud and tasteful: "This is my daughter-in-law, don't look at her like this in front of me!" β
After speaking, he felt that it was not enough, so he added: "It's not good to carry it on your back!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Chu Lingxi was speechless, Su Li was still wearing a veil on his face, what could he see?
Just thinking about it, there were a few exclamations on the river, Su Li pushed Chu Huai'an's hand away, and saw that something black seemed to be moving on the river, like some mysterious and terrifying water monster.
