Yan Xuying suddenly appeared and confessed, which was beyond the expectations of everyone in the princess's mansion. A pair of eyes looked at him in disbelief, as if they had seen a wisp of ** floating from the Qi Domain. A look of surprise also appeared on Situ Su's face. Suspicion comes and goes, who would suspect Yan Xuying, who is usually cautious in words and deeds, and has almost never said a word since the incident?

However, Lan Sheng looked even more surprised than the others, and she asked with trembling lips, "Yan Guard...... What did you say? ”

Yan Xuying didn't answer, nor did she make eye contact with Lan Xiang, she lowered her head in front of Situ Su, her face full of guilt. Situ Su said coldly: "Why did you kill Qingyan? ”

Yan Xuying said: "Qingyan said that she saw something that shouldn't be seen, in fact, it was me and Lan Sheng who met in Yunyin Garden last night...... before the words fell, Lan Sheng rushed over and hit Yan Xuying like crazy: "You are talking nonsense!" Nonsense! What personal relationship do I have with you?

Yan Xuying raised her head and said to Lan Shang: "Lan Shang, you admit it." Now for you, it's the best option. ”

Lan Sheng was stunned, her palms hung in the air, and her expression froze for a moment.

Yan Xuying said with a look of remorse: "Princess, I have already formed a personal relationship with Lan Shang. After Qingyan bumped into her last night, she wanted to leave and was discovered by us. So I grabbed her and told her not to tell the princess. Qingyan said that this matter broke the rules of the house, and she had to report it. I begged her again and again to let her hide it for the two of us, and Qingyan hesitated. ”

Situ Su said: "However, after Qingyan left, the more you thought about it, the more worried you became, so you went to see her again early this morning?" Trick her into going to the Raccoon Pool? ”

"Yes, I went to look for her in the courtyard where she lived this morning. Seeing what Huiyi was telling her. After Huiyi left, I pulled her aside and told her very solemnly that I had something important to ask for. Let her wait for me by the pool at the first moment. If you go, take the trail and don't let anyone else find out. Stay in the house beforehand, don't go anywhere else. ”

Huiyi burst into tears and said, "I'm going to ask her to buy ingredients this morning." Qingyan, an idiot, actually obediently listened to you. ”

Yan Xuying said again: "After that, I found Xinting again and suggested that she and Huiyi go to Yinbipo to play music. Xinting told Huiyi, and Huiyi told Lanshang and Xiao Yinzi. ”

Situ Su looked at Xinting when he heard this, only to see Xinting's face as pale as paper. She said weakly, "It is true that the guard Yan suggested that I play music. ”

Yan Xuying glanced at Xinting and continued to speak, but her voice gradually calmed down: "After Huiyi returned to Yinbipo, she rested for a while. I saw that Qingyan was already by the pool, so I asked Hui Yi and Xin Ting to perform. As they were playing, I walked quickly downhill to the edge of the pool, and covered my mouth and nose with a handkerchief smoked with incense. She soon passed out. Then I pushed her into the water. He tied his handkerchief to a stone and threw it into the water. When I saw the smoke sinking, I ran back to Yinbi Slope. Huiyi and the others were still playing the song they had just played, and they didn't even notice that I had left and returned. ”

Li Changjun asked in surprise, "Why didn't I know that you had actually left?" ”

The slanting sun has been engulfed by distant mountains, and the faint moon marks are reflected on the trees in the courtyard, which is insignificant. Situ Su said: "Before, you said that you were confused when you listened to the tune, but now do you understand? ”

Li Changjun suddenly realized: "Did the Yan guards put the incense on me before going downhill?" So I fainted......"

Yan Xuying said: "That kind of incense works very quickly, but it can only last for a short time. So not long after I came back, Guard Li almost woke up. To him, it was as if nothing had happened. Of course, I also threw that bottle of incense into the pool. ”

Situ Su asked again: "These two kinds of incense were given to you by Lan Shang?" ”

Yan Xuying said: "Not bad. This is what she gave me for self-defense. ”

Everyone turned their eyes to Lan Sheng again, and saw that she looked in a trance and out of her body, as if everything that was happening at the moment had nothing to do with her.

Yan Xuying said: "Princess, I came up with the whole thing by myself, and I haven't discussed it with anyone. Lan Sheng didn't know about it. And the reason why I arranged for Huiyi and Xinting to play music was to create an alibi. ”

Li Changjun said angrily: "In order not to be known by the princess about your adultery with Lan Shang, you ruthlessly killed Qingyan?" ”

Yan Xuying said: "I'm not like that myself. But Lan Sheng has always been trusted and favored by the princess, and I can't let her be driven away by the princess like this. I can't let her ruin my reputation. Because I...... I love her. ”

Huiyi gritted her teeth and said, "Since you love her, why don't you just propose to the princess?" Wouldn't it be nice for the two of you to leave the princess's mansion? ”

Yan Xuying was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "Because Lan Sheng said that the princess has not yet come out of the shadow of the horse's death, she can't and is unwilling to leave the princess now." ”

Situ Su said coldly: "You sacrificed Qingyan for Lanshang. Your love, however, is terrible. ”

Yan Xuying smiled bitterly: "It's not just Qingyan. Actually, Xiao Yinzi was also implicated by me. Originally, I knew that Qingyan's body would surface in a few days, but at that time, everyone would only think that she had fallen into the water and died. Unexpectedly, in order to save Lan Shang, Xiao Guizi found Qingyan's body again. Miss Yingxian began to investigate again. It all seemed to be predestined. ”

Situ Su turned his head and asked Lan Shang, "Is what he said true?" When did you start having an affair with Yan Guard? ”

However, Lan Sheng just hid her face and wept, trembling in the evening breeze, an orchid that had been wilted by the sudden frost.

Ying Xian opened his mouth at this time and asked, "The door of the ear room is not locked, did you do it on purpose?" ”

Yan Xuying nodded and said, "I killed Qingyan, and I am already guilty. It also affected Xiao Yinzi. So I deliberately left the door of the chamber unlocked, left the vase on the table, and said to him before leaving: 'As long as you live, there will be hope.' In fact, I hope that Xiao Yinzi can use the vase to cut the rope and escape. But I never expected that he would kill himself with a vase. In this way, I indirectly killed another one. ”

Situ Su said: "So, when Yingxian pointed the finger at Lan Shang, do you think you can't be silent anymore and must be responsible for this matter?" ”

"Wrong again and again, can not be wrong again." Yan Xuying replied. After saying that, he pulled out the long knife from his waist - there were many shocks all around him - and put it to his neck, and said resolutely: "Murder pays for life." Since I have killed Qingyan, I should judge myself. ”

"Wait a minute." An exclamation. But it's from Xinting.

Situ Su asked, "What do you have to say?" ”

Xin Ting said: "The whole thing, Yan Guards can be said to be confused for a while, and it made a big mistake. And the entanglement of injustices in it cannot be explained in a few words. From an outsider's point of view, I just feel ...... Felt...... He had a lot of troubles. He did stupid things to protect the woman he loved. And Lan Sheng is also for the princess, so she doesn't want to leave the princess's mansion. I hope that the princess, remembering their loyalty to you, will show mercy to her subordinates and spare him death. ”

After hearing this, Situ Su looked up at the sky and said to himself, "What day is today?" Is there really a third person going to die in the princess's mansion? ”

Xiao Ningzi took a few steps forward and said, "Princess, each of us is heartbroken. It's just that people can't be resurrected after death. Today is your birthday again. If Yan guards are allowed to judge themselves, there will be too much blood, which is really ominous. It's better to raise your noble hand and let the Yan guards atone for their sins. ”

Huiyi said angrily: "No. We are brothers and sisters with Qingyan, if she is deliberately killed, that person can get away with the crime, I ...... I'm the first to be upset. ”

The last light of the evening was gone. The courtyard was not lit, and it was as dark as an ancient demon beast. The long night is coming. Black is the darling of philosophers, revealing a silent solemnity. In the darkness of the night, people's vivid faces faded into obscurity, revealing roughly similar outlines. Situ Su's gaze swept over everyone present, and said word by word: "If you think that the Yan guards should judge themselves here, stand on my left." If you think that he is a living sin and that he can escape the death penalty, he stands on the right side. Lan Shang doesn't count. ”

After Situ Su said this, Huiyi took the lead and walked to the left. Xinting and Xiao Ningzi also stood on Situ Su's right one after another. Xiao Guizi glanced at Lan Sheng who collapsed to the ground, and walked to Xiao Ningzi's side with his head down. Xiao Xuanzi hesitated for a moment and went to the left. Li Changjun followed closely and said to Yan Xuying bitterly: "It is only natural to repay debts and kill people to pay for their lives. But I can't do it for myself. ”

Three-on-three. Situ Su asked Yingxian: "What about you?" ”

Under the gaze of everyone, Yingxian got up, stepped forward, and walked to the right of Situ Su. Hui Yi exclaimed: "Yingxian...... You, don't you want to take revenge for Qingyan? ”

Ying Xian did not answer.

Situ Su inspected the crowd and asked, "Have you all figured it out?" Seeing that no one had changed, he spoke: "Yan Xuying's death penalty can be avoided." As for the living sin......" she groaned, her eyes were faintly cold, and her expression was solemn, and finally she lowered her head and said to Yan Xuying: "Since you have borne the sin, you should know that sometimes it is more difficult to live than to die. He sighed slightly: "You pushed the smoke down the pond with your own hands." Leave your arms behind and go. ”

Yan Xuying's face changed drastically, and she was dyed with unspeakable pain, the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching, and finally, she said in a trembling voice: "Thank you princess for not killing." Before the others could react, their right hand waved, and they saw the knife flashing, blood splashing, and the entire left arm fell to the ground in an instant. Amid the screams of the crowd, Yan Xuying fell. Blood gushed from the severed arm. A face suddenly turned as white as a dead man, twitching, his facial features were twisted in horror, his throat overflowed with extremely forbearing, but he couldn't help it, and he was like a ghost's whimper in the evening breeze. Everyone present was shocked. After a while, I saw him endure severe pain, get up, staggered to Li Changjun, fell down again, and sent the long knife that had drunk blood forward with his right hand, and said weakly: "Brother Li, help me." Then he passed out.

Seeing the tragic situation, everyone knelt on the ground and shouted in unison, "Princess." ”

Situ Su held on to a big tree and asked Huiyi, "Have you forgiven him?" ”

Huiyi sobbed: "He is truly repentant, princess, you can spare him." ”

Situ Su sighed: "Providence is so. Called: "Little Xuanzi." Xiao Xuanzi replied, "Yes."

"You quickly go to Wan Langzhong on Changning Street to come to my house to save people."

"Yes." Xiao Xuanzi had to rush out of the house.

Situ Su said again: "Xiao Ningzi, Xinting, you help Yan Xuying into the house, bandage him, and take care of him." Xiao Guizi, Hui Yi, and Li Guards, you move Xiao Yinzi's body to the mourning hall. Let's get a coffin. Cleaned up this place. ”

And they all took their command. In the blink of an eye, only Situ Su, Yingxian and Lan Sheng were left in the courtyard.

Situ Su walked up to Lan Sheng and asked, "Do you have anything to say to me?" Lan Sheng didn't seem to have recovered from the scene just now, her eyes were scattered, and she muttered, "I don't know why he did this." I don't understand, I don't understand......"

Situ Su asked Yingxian again: "Why did you choose to let Yan Xuying go?" Qingyan was killed by him. ”

Yingxian's eyes contain a different kind of loneliness at this moment. Tiredly, he said: "I just suddenly felt that what we thought was the 'truth' may not be. I don't want to lose my life again. ”

*****

The sun rises and the moon sets, and the princess's mansion returns to its former calm. The rest of the people in the house returned to the house after the Mid-Autumn Festival, only to know that there was a big disaster on August 16. Qingyan and Xiao Yinzi died. Yan Xuying was dismissed from his post and dismissed, and Lan Sheng was also dismissed. Before leaving, she said to Situ Su: "Princess, there is no personal relationship between me and Yan Xuying. It's me who bears this undeserved ugly name. However, I know you won't take my word for it. Besides, after all, he was the one who forged me, otherwise I would have become the second little Yinzi. I hope that one day, you will understand the truth. "I didn't look at Yingxian, and left.

Yingxian stayed in the princess's mansion for a few days, and finally got to August 25, which was also the day of the last appointment with Ji Linghuang. That night, Yingxian came to the "Moon Pavilion" on the bank of the Muyang River. Ji Linghuang was already waiting in the pavilion. As soon as they met, they saw Yingxian's haggard face, so they asked what happened in the princess's mansion. Yingxian was depressed in her heart, and she didn't hide it at the moment, so she told Ji Linghuang all the whole story of the Qingyan falling into the water. At the end, Qi Qiran said: "I want to say that I regret this matter the most, because I heard Xiao Ningzi say that Qingyan fell into the water last year and called for help, so I preconceived that Qingyan would also call for help this time." This only affected Xiao Yinzi. ”

Ji Linghuang shook his head after hearing this: "If you want to say that you are preconceived, in fact, you met Xiao Yinzi after you returned to the house that night, and the next day you heard the princess say that Qingyan and Xiao Yinzi's performance in the palace, you are already preconceived." ”

Ying Xian was stunned for a moment, and said astringently: "You mean that I secretly believe that Xiao Yinzi is the murderer in my heart, so I unconsciously want to prove this?" ”

Ji Linghuang stared at the river in front of the pavilion and said indifferently: "It's not just you, the entire princess mansion is actually more willing to believe in Lan Shang, isn't it?" ”

Yingxian had no choice but to say, "Yes." Suddenly realized: I suspected that Qi Xiushan's body was Li Zhu that day, and it was indeed Li Zhu. Hearing the bury of the corpse talk about Han Gonggong, he guessed that the head behind the Qi Xiushan Group was Han Gonggong. And according to Princess Celestia's investigation, it is not surprising. Therefore, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I saw Xiao Yinzi traveling at night, and the next day I heard that the princess revealed his conflict with Qingyan, and as soon as Qingyan died, he "took it for granted" that he regarded him as a murderer.

Ji Linghuang said again: "It is this kind of psychological expectation that affects your judgment. Besides, Yan Guard's final confession, how do you know that he is not guilty for Lan Shang? However, at that point, everyone no longer wants to pursue it. And the princess really needs an answer. Seeing that Yingxian did not respond, he continued: "Actually, just on the basis of facts, it is not impossible for Yan Guard, Li Guard, Xin Ting, and Hui Yi to conspire to collude. It's just that the princess didn't want to believe it at the first time, but ruled out this possibility at the beginning. ”

Yingxian looked at Ji Linghuang, who was talking calmly by himself, and suddenly felt angry in his heart: Could it be that I saw him just to listen to him say this?

She sank her face and said in a hard voice, "It's getting late today. I have to go back. Ji Gongzi, let's see you another day. ”

Ji Linghuang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Yingxian to leave so early, and spit out three words: "Miss Shang......" but saw Yingxian moving and wanted to leave, so he said: "Okay." ”

Ying Xian got out of the pavilion, turned around and walked alone to the east, but Ji Linghuang never caught up. Looking back, the man had already gone west, and soon the figure had completely disappeared into the crowd. Yingxian's heart was disappointed, but there was also a trace of anger.

But what's wrong with what he said? People only believe what they want to believe and need to believe.

The cold wind blows ...... Phantom shattered. She smiled self-deprecatingly, and the long road was infinitely sad.
