"Qiu Zeyuan killed Tong Yuhao by mistake for a while, that's different, the one who survives will be immersed in the death of the other party, and life is better than death. That's what I want. I will give them back a thousand times the pain they have inflicted on me. You said that if Tong Guangting saw that he was his most precious grandchild in the Spirit of Heaven, and personally destroyed the Qiu family that he had guarded all his life, and Qiu Jiyuan saw that his only precious son was destroyed in the hands of Xin Daiyun's daughter after all, how would he feel? Do you think they're going to die? Speaking of this, Tong Baiyi couldn't stop the smile in his heart anymore, and let himself laugh back and forth, as if he was the only thing to be happy about in his life.

However, he quickly stopped laughing and sighed: "I just said that you underestimated the enemy, and I was a little carried away. Let's wait until it's done. What I just said is only half of the reason, I chose to start with Tong Yuqing's sisters and brothers, the most important thing is that they can use the most power, and the words that come out of their mouths are more convincing. ”

"It's just...... Father-in-law, aren't you afraid that Tong Yuqing and Tong Yuhao will miss the old relationship and can't bear to do something to Qiu Zeyuan? ”

"They can't bear to kill Qiu Zeyuan, so they can't bear to watch their parents die innocently? Rest assured, as long as they raise troops, our goal has been achieved. I know you want to avenge your family, but you have to look at the bigger picture at this time. A person's life is as fragile as it is, and when Qiu Zeyuan loses the country, he is like a lost dog, when the time comes, you can do him if you want to do it, you can do him, you know? Tong Baiyi stared at Xiao Liu's eyes tightly until the unwillingness in his eyes dissipated.

"I know, there is one more thing I want to ask my father-in-law for. Nian Muxin wants to see you. ”

Tong Baiyi frowned, "Did any of you go to the Nian Mansion?" ”

"No, once when the fourth sister passed by the Nian Mansion, she saw Nian Muxin and her brother tearing, so she listened in the dark for a while, and then realized that she wanted to come out to find you, but was stopped by her brother. You see......"

Tong Baiyi sighed, "This woman is still so heartless, now the situation is so chaotic, she can't stay at her mother's house, what are you doing when you come to me?" ”

Xiao Liu asked tentatively, "Do you want the fourth sister to send her to Puxi?" ”

Tong Baiyi shook his head, "She is the woman that Qiu Zeyuan gave me, and Qiu Zeyuan shouldn't do anything to her." She is under the protection of her mother's family, and there will be no accidents. It's your fourth sister, remind her to pay attention to safety, and go around in a dangerous place like the Nian family. ”

Xiao Liu responded: "I will tell the fourth sister." Stepfather...... In addition to Nian Muxin, that person also wants to see you. ”

Tong Baiyi's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Didn't you tell you not to contact that person as a last resort?!" ”

Xiao Liu's face was wronged, "Father-in-law, it wasn't me who contacted him, it was he who got the news from somewhere, I heard that you arrived in Puxi and wanted to meet you." ”

"Nope!"

Xiao Liu thought to himself, you can send me away with just two words, but I can't use these two words to send him. But he didn't have the courage to say it, but fortunately, Tong Baiyi knew that he was stupid, and added, "You just tell him, when I finish dealing with Pudong's affairs, I will visit him in person." ”

Xiao Liu breathed a sigh of relief instantly, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go and reply to the tenth brother and explain a few things you said." ”

Tong Baiyi nodded tiredly, leaned back on the rocking chair and smelled the fragrant sandalwood, looked at the scattered Ling Xiao, and thought about his mother, don't blame me......

Tong Yuqing stood in front of the porch, quietly letting the cool evening breeze blow through every inch of skin on her body, quietly watching the white silk blown by the wind disappear in front of her eyes little by little, and quietly waiting for the long years with an unknown future to come to her step by step......

"Sister, let's go into the house, it's cool at night." When Tong Yuhao came back, he saw his sister leaning on the cold jade pillar again, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he hurriedly ran over and asked his sister to go back to the house.

Tong Yuqing came back to her senses from the rambling reverie and asked, "Uncle, they are already gone?" ”

Tong Yuhao nodded, Tong Yuqing was silent for a moment, then gathered the shawl on his body and said, "It's time for us to regroup and get ready to act." ”

"Sister, have you really figured it out? You must know that if this step is taken, there is no room for recovery......"

Tong Yuqing said angrily: "What to redeem? That white-eyed wolf who doesn't care about our lives at all?! Isn't the price we paid to see his face clearly enough?! ”

"Sister, I didn't mean that, I mean, is there some misunderstanding here? Fur coat...... The Overseers aren't supposed to be like that......"

"Then you're saying I framed him?!" Tong Yuqing was almost roaring.

"Calm down, I don't trust anyone in this world, it's impossible not to believe you, my sister! I mean, you still won't tell me what happened that day, so how do you want me to promise you to do this great thing? If there is really a misunderstanding, our sisters and brothers can't be the sinners of the ages who destroyed the foundation of our ancestors! In any case, before acting, I hope you can explain to me clearly the cause and effect of the matter, I am the son of a child, and I am as qualified as you to decide the fate of the family! After saying this, Tong Yuhui still felt that his blood was unsettled, and his little face turned red.

Tong Yuqing had never seen her brother so resolute, so she said, "Okay, then I'll tell you......"

"Miss, young master, the Overseer and the White Princess, please see you." Steward Yao suddenly ran over at this time and said, although he knew that the chance of the young lady seeing them was not very high, but he still asked for instructions according to the rules.

Sure enough, Tong Yuqing shouted angrily: "Gone!" ”

"See you!" Tong Yuhao also shouted.

Tong Yuqing looked at her younger brother angrily, but Tong Yuqing said coldly: "I have to listen to both of you in this matter, otherwise I will not agree to raise troops." ”

The sisters and brothers both looked directly at each other, and after a while, Tong Yuqing shouted, "Let them in!" ”

Along the way, there is endless white, although the family has been removing the white silk in the house one after another, but the gardenia on the side of the road is still showing a happy face, which makes Bai Qiaoxuan feel the chill of winter in Mengqiu.

But when he finally saw the person who worried him and didn't think about tea and dinner, his heart was as hot as being roasted on a fire, and this word was perfect to describe his mood at this time.

He looked at her carefully, as if he had never seen her in several lifetimes, if she was a bright and brilliant green water picture before, then she is now a light and thin ink painting. Her favorite purple jade flute in her hair was gone, and the inky black green silk poured down, falling on the unadorned plain clothes, without the amethyst jewel that she often wore around her neck, and the round collarbone was clearly visible in her white neck. I haven't seen her for a few days, and she's lost so much! It was as if a gust of wind could blow her down, but she still had to fight with her remaining strength to carry the burden of the entire family on her weak shoulders. Seeing her like this, he suddenly felt that Qiu Zeyuan's decision was right, no matter what the result was, they had to fight hard.

"Uncle Qiu, Brother Qiao Xuan, please take a seat." Tong Yuhao, who was sitting on the main seat, pointed to the position on his left and said.

As soon as Qiu Zeyuan and Bai Qiaoxuan were about to take their seats, Tong Yuqing took the lead and sat on the first seat on Tong Yuxuan's left.

For a while, the three people in the hall were slightly embarrassed, Pu Dong has always respected the left, and Tong Yuqing did this, obviously showing his attitude.

Qiu Zeyuan knew that Tong Yuqing was not a person who could not distinguish between the young and the old, so he remained silent and sat on the right side of Tong Yuhao, and Bai Qiaoxuan also sat under him with Qiu Zeyuan.

Tong Yuhao's embarrassment decreased slightly, and he ordered Steward Yao to make Qiu Zeyuan's favorite Junshan silver needle.

"Uncle Qiu, let's get straight to the point today, why are you visiting?" Tong Yuhao asked.

"We are here today to explain to you the misunderstanding of that day." Saying that, Qiu Zeyuan looked at Tong Yuqing, "Yuqing, I grew up with your father since childhood, and it is better to be a brother than a brother." I can't put his safety at any time or in any place. I've never made the decision to abandon him. I've been looking for Yoyo and your parents since they disappeared, but I can't find a trace of them. That day, I heard Miao Wen in the eastern suburbs say that she had news of Youyou, and I rushed to rescue her non-stop, do you know where she was locked up by Tong Baiyi? She was in the underground dark room of the Eastern Suburbs Garden, that day I walked to the end of the secret passage and found that the road ahead was destroyed, thinking that it was the people who kidnapped Youyou in order to prevent us from finding them, so the secret passage was blocked, I didn't expect this to be a trick, the entrance to the dark room is on the side wall of the secret passage, I suspect that your parents are either locked up in their own mansion or hidden in Tong Baiyi's mansion after finding Yiyou. I wanted to go directly to them, but you also know that Yoyo is by my side, and I will be hindered in everything I do, so I will send her back to the house first. I ......" Qiu Zeyuan still doesn't want to believe that Tong Fengyi is dead, those words make him feel like a fish in his throat, but now in this empty Tong Mansion, he has to admit that the brother who will stand by his side no matter when and where he is no longer ......

"I had no idea what happened to your parents. Yuqing, I know that you have been deceived by traitors, so you will mistakenly think that I have abandoned your parents. I'll bring her over today and let her tell you face to face what's going on, okay? ”

Tong Yuqing was silent, and Tong Yuqing saw that her sister was silent, so she said, "Since you have found a witness, bring him up." ”

Tong Yuhui saw that the person who was carried in by several soldiers was Miao Wen, who had not recovered from a serious injury, and frowned slightly, "Uncle Qiu, what's going on?" ”

Qiu Zeyuan looked at Miao Wen and said, "Miao Wen is the meticulous work that Tong Baiyi planted next to your father, and she has personally admitted that it was Tong Baiyi who ordered her to provoke the relationship between us. ”

Tong Yuhao's brows furrowed even deeper, and he asked tentatively, "Miao Wen, is what the Overseer said true?" Did you tell my sister that the Overseer abandoned my parents and chose to save Sister Yiyou? ”

Miao Wen's face was pale, a few strands of hair were stuck to her sideburns with sweat, she sat up with her hands behind her back, glanced at Qiu Zeyuan, looked at Tong Yuhao with teary eyes, and said hesitantly: "I...... I...... It's ......"

After finishing speaking, Miao Wen covered her face with her hands and cried profusely.

"Are you done?" Tong Yuqing finally opened her eyes and asked in a cold voice.

Qiu Ze saw that Tong Yuqing's hatred had not diminished at all, and the bottom of his heart seemed to have been stripped of a corner, dragging him down...... Was he wrong? Isn't it Miao Wen?

Bai Qiaoxuan watched Tong Yuqing walk up to Miao Wen step by step and squat down, feeling equally uneasy.

"Why lie?" Tong Yuqing took out the silk handkerchief in her sleeve to wipe Miao Wen's tears.

Miao Wen's face was full of tears, and she choked up: "Miss......"

"He forced you, didn't he?" Tong Yuqing's voice was as soft as floating on the clouds.

"I ......" Miao Wen lowered her head in pain.

Qiu Zeyuan was furious in the face of this sudden frame-up, if it wasn't for Bai Qiaoxuan stopping him deadly, he really wanted to send this woman to hell immediately.

Tong Yuqing stood up, looked at Qiu Zeyuan, whose face was flushed, and sneered: "You have been checking for so many days, looking for so many days, just tell me such a result?" Qiu Zeyuan, you really impress me! ”

Tong Yuqing turned to her younger brother and said, "Yuhao, haven't you always wanted to know why I thought Qiu Zeyuan had abandoned his parents? I'll tell you now, because it was none other than our mother who told me about it! ”

As soon as Tong Yuqing said this, not only Tong Yuhao, but even Qiu Zeyuan and Bai Qiaoxuan were shocked.

"Qiu Zeyuan, do you want to say that my mother is also Tong Baiyi's meticulous work placed next to my father? Are you trying to say that the only last words my mother left me before she died were lying to me?! Tong Yuqing roared angrily.

Tong Yuhao couldn't sit still anymore, he rushed over and grabbed his sister's hands, "Sister, is what you said true?" Did your mother really tell you? ”

Tong Yuqing held her brother's hand back, and tears flashed in her eyes, "Yuhao, my sister swears by the century-old reputation of my Tong family, and what I say is true." After Miao Wen told me where my parents were that day, I immediately rushed to Tong Baiyi's house, and saw my dying mother in front of the house. ”

Qiu Zeyuan's body shook twice, he didn't know why He Yanjun said this, he only knew that all this was Tong Baiyi's trick, he wanted Qiu Tong's two families to break up, and there was no room for recovery.

Tong Yuhui felt that the remaining hope in his heart had been wiped away, and he stumbled to the ground under his feet. At this time, Miao Wen stumbled over and cried: "Young master, it's Miao Wen's fault, I failed to rescue the director and his wife, and because I was afraid of death, I helped the Overseer deceive you." ”

Qiu Zeyuan almost roared: "No! Miao Wen, you are Tong Baiyi's person, you are lying! That day, I asked you if you knew the whereabouts of Feng Yi and Yanjun, and you said you didn't know, but you told Yuqing! ”

Miao Wen looked at Qiu Zeyuan's eyes full of grievances and pain, "You are still wronging me now, I clearly told you that Tong Baiyi wants you to choose one of Miss Yiyou and the director and his wife to save him, but before I can tell the director and his wife where they are, you can't wait to rush to save Miss Yiyou." Now you are still threatening me to lie in front of the young master, you ......"

Miao Wen looked so angry that she didn't know what to say. Qiu Zeyuan was even more angry, but he didn't know how to explain it, he had no evidence in his hands, and it was impossible to clear his grievances with his old feelings alone.

Tong Yuhui didn't know how long he had been sitting on the ground, or how he had stood up, but by the time he came to his senses, he had already sat back on the throne, "Overseer, please." ”

"Xiao Hao, you have to believe uncle, from the disappearance of Yiyou to the accident of your parents, I have never seen Tong Baiyi, let alone abandoned your parents, your father is my best brother, how can I abandon him?" Qiu Zeyuan is still making the last struggle.

"You can even ignore your parents, how can my father be a person with a foreign surname?" Tong Yuqing's voice was about to condense the air into ice.

Qiu Zeyuan looked at Tong Yuqing in disbelief, this sentence was heavier than any sentence she had said before.

Tong Yuqing continued as if she didn't notice Qiu Zeyuan's pain: "Back then, if you had the slightest intention of caring for your parents, you would not have refused to let go of the old overseer to marry Aunt Dai when he was in danger, even if you tried to deceive him, you would not have been. How do you want us to believe what you say?! Okay, even if Tong Baiyi never let you make any choice, I ask you now, if, I mean, if my parents are still alive, they and Yiyou are in prison at the same time, and you can only save one of them, and the one you don't save will die immediately, who will you choose to save? ”

Qiu Zeyuan felt as if his throat was choked by Tong Yuqing, and he couldn't breathe...... If Tong Baiyi really wanted him to make a choice at that time, if the situation had developed to the point where he had to choose, who would he choose......

Qiu Zeyuan finally lowered his head in the long-term staring with Tong Yuqing, she was right, there is no way back at the end of this long road, and there is no longer any brilliance in the glitz of this world, the only thing he can't give up or abandon is a little her......

"Is there anything else you can do?" Tong Yuqing looked at Bai Qiaoxuan.

After Qiu Ze left, Tong Yuhao also went back to the room to rest, and only Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan were left in the entire main hall.

Bai Qiaoxuan walked up to Tong Yuqing and sat down, and said hesitantly: "I know that I don't have any evidence in my hand, and you may not believe what I say." But I'll tell you what I think. Tong Baiyi has a long-standing grudge against the Overseers and your father, and from the moment he returned to Pudong more than twenty years ago, he began to plan his revenge. He first disposed of the Overseer's successors one by one, leaving Pu Dong with no successor. Then take the people closest to the Overseer away from him one by one, first Aunt Dai, then our Bai family, and finally your parents and your entire Tong family. If my expectations are correct, he wants to use your hands to destroy the Qiu family and plunge Pu Dong into chaos. But Yuqing, you can't be used by him like this, not for anything else, just for the reputation of your Tong family's loyalty and kindness for generations, and you can't provoke a war, what do you say? ”

Tong Yuqing replied coldly: "I don't want to provoke a war, if Qiu Zeyuan takes the initiative to put himself and Yiyou's heads in front of my parents' spirits, I can calm things down." ”

"Why don't you understand? It is very likely that Tong Baiyi is framing Qiu Zeyuan this time, just like ...... Bai Qiaoxuan took a deep breath at that time, "He is the same as Yiyou." Do you remember how you persuaded me in the first place? ”

Tong Yuqing looked at Bai Qiaoxuan's earnest gaze, her eyes were warm, "It's different." This time my mother told me herself, and I could hear every word clearly. ”

"Yuqing, I empathize with your pain. But maybe, maybe your mother was also deceived by Tong Baiyi? ”

"There is no such maybe! She had been lying under that cold earth forever and would never open her eyes to me again! Tong Yuqing jumped up and yelled at Bai Qiaoxuan, but when she turned around, she cried again.

Bai Qiaoxuan suddenly hugged her firmly from behind, regardless of her punches and kicks, or her desperate struggles, "Yuqing, calm down!" ”

Tong Yuqing broke Bai Qiaoxuan's fingers one by one and shouted, "I've been calm for half a lifetime!" But what did I get in exchange? My parents died! My mother died in my arms dripping with blood! My father's body is nowhere to be found, and he cannot be buried! Did You Know? I don't dare to close my eyes now, as soon as I close my eyes, I see the bloody wounds on my mother's body, and I can't stop the blood. As soon as I stopped to rest, I heard my father's voice echoing in my ears, asking me why I had left him in a different place. How do you want me to calm down?! Why should I be calm?! I just want to let those who kill them go to hell one by one, Qiu Zeyuan is, Yiyou is, Tong Baiyi is even more! Bai Qiaoxuan, let me tell you, don't persuade me to let them go! ”

The sadness in Bai Qiaoxuan's eyes was irrepressible, but it made Tong Yuqing mistaken, she took a few steps back, and said, "I know you are reluctant, for your sake, I will give her a less painful way to die." ”

"Do you think it's for her sake that I tried so hard to persuade you not to raise troops?"

Tong Yuqing saw the pain in his eyes, and his heart twitched unconsciously.

"You're wrong, I'm wrong, I've always stubbornly thought that I love Yiyou, but when I found out that I had only anger and no pain about it, I knew I was wrong. I never really loved her, I loved someone else, the one who let me stay, you. I didn't want to see you embarrassed, so I stayed, can you believe it? ”

The moonlight extends the long time into a clear glow, sprinkled through the doors and windows on the smooth stone, like stars scattered in the world in the vast Milky Way.

After a long time, Tong Yuqing replied: "I believe it." I promised you that I would always believe in you, and I would not break my word. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan was overjoyed, but listened to her say again: "You should know that even if Qiu Linghe and Qiu Lingxuan may have become my husbands, I have never taken them to heart......"
