Chapter 11: Dead Heart, the Road Ahead is Long and Alone

Ling Chuchu stood up and followed Princess Xu into the door.

Xu Shi poured tea for her, and his eyes seemed to be looking at a stranger: "For so many years, you have always come every once in a while, what are you hoping for?" ”

The furnishings in the room are very plain, and the tables and chairs are all simple styles.

Ling Chuchu drank tea, his mood was barely calm, and said, "Mother, I ......"

"Don't call me mother!" Xu Shi interrupted sharply and said, "I said a long time ago, you are not my daughter, and I have done my best to keep your identity as the daughter of the palace." ”

I see.

She is not the daughter of the princess, so the princess can turn a blind eye to every injury she suffers.

Xu Shi lit incense and bowed down to the Bodhisattva: "You came to me, what grievances did you suffer?" ”

Ling Chuchu opened her mouth, Yuan Qin grabbed in front of her, and said, "The bedding that Aunt Gu sent to Miss is all rags, which are not warm at all, and the charcoal sent cannot be burned. Miss is like this, there is no way to survive the winter at all. ”

Yuan Qin knelt in front of Xu's family, tears flowed down, her voice choked, and said: "Princess, even if Miss is not your own, but you have watched her grow up, this winter, with those bedding charcoal fire, Miss in case there are three long and two short ......"

"Shut up!"

Xu Shi inserted the incense into the incense burner and said, "I said that if you want to live, you will accept your fate and marry Second Young Master Lu, and I will ensure that you live a safe and stable life." But if you don't listen and insist on getting out of the marriage, you will bear the consequences. ”

Yuan Qin was unwilling and knelt on the ground to kowtow to Xu.

Ling Chuchu looked at Xu's innocent appearance and pulled Yuan Qin up suddenly.

"Don't beg her!" She slapped the teacup on the table, stood up, took a deep breath, and said in a loud voice: "Marriage, I will definitely quit; I will keep my life! ”

The bright sky was suddenly overcast, and evil winds were raging.

The fallen leaves, with the help of the wind, all floated in the air, and the trees bent over.

Rainstorms are coming.

Mama Liu took the waste straw mat that the maid didn't want, and walked to the maid's room, where the maids who were on duty last night were making up for sleep.

Mama Liu threw the straw mat onto the brazier that had been burning, until the green smoke lit, and without hesitation, she took away the wooden pole that held up the window, and then closed the door to death.

Just stayed in the courtyard like that, until there was no longer a sound of turning over in the room, snorted, and said, "Ling Chuchu, you can't hide!" ”

Only an hour after leaving, news came.

The Zhennan Wangfu is dead.

The maid rested in the room at noon, and slept alive and died.

Because the charcoal was sent by Ling Chuchu, she naturally became the number one suspect.

When Aunt Gu led people to surround the Tinghe Courtyard, she was sitting at the stone table drinking tea, and calmly beckoned Aunt Gu to come and taste: "The palace is busy, let's be tired, rest for a while." ”

The slave rushed into the room to search, and Aunt Gu sat down beside Ling Chuchu and pouted: "Hmph, the evidence is ironclad, forgive you and don't dare to play tricks!" ”

Yuan Qin was worried that Aunt Gu would be a ghost, and the burden from before, so she hurriedly went to stare at those minions in person, but was stopped by Ling Chuchu.

For a time, the dark tide surged.

Ling Chuchu's inexplicable attitude made Aunt Gu also suspicious, and the minions who were searching in the room had not yet come out, so Aunt Gu made a false gesture and chatted with her.

Unbeknownst to him, as soon as he put the teacup on the stone table, Ling Chuchu was angry and swept all the things on the table to the ground:

"The surname is Gu, what do you mean?!"
