Chapter 79: Drink it, and I'll let you out
"Who are you talking about? Who is my mother? Su Qingkite's heart skipped a beat.
Shu Xing knelt on the ground and howled hoarsely: "Madam, what should I do now?" You can't save her, you can't save her anymore......"
Su Qingyuan reached out and grabbed Shu Xing's collar: "Aren't you crazy?" That hellish Aunt Nian is my mother? My mother has been dead for fifteen or sixteen years! β
Shuxing didn't answer her words, and the crying stopped.
Su Qingyuan felt bad in her heart, and hurriedly lifted her collar and turned her over.
Shu Xing's eyes rolled and he was out of breath.
Su Qingyuan's heart ached, and tears immediately poured down.
With a dizziness in front of her, she propped her hands on the ground, and it took a while to barely stabilize her figure.
Try again and still don't breathe.
Su Qingyuan suddenly felt a heart-rending pain in her chest.
She trembled and stretched out her hand and wiped it on Shu Xing's eyes.
It didn't work.
Actually, it is dead and blind.
Su Qingyuan burst into tears and laughed: "It's really useless, it's so easy to die!" β
At some point, she had fallen to her knees on the icy ground - perhaps because she was too tired from squatting.
It wasn't until the little thing in her belly protested that she stood up with difficulty with her hands on the ground.
The cold to the bones can't match the sadness and confusion in my heart.
Why did he die?
He did not regret until he died, but he refused to look away, is it ......
Su Qingyuan staggered out of the door, and called a few times, but no one answered.
The housekeeper is not there, nor are Luoxia and Danyue.
Su Qingyuan felt as if she had been collectively abandoned by everyone.
Did she do something wrong?
Shuxing may indeed have no malice, but can "no malice" cover up the fact that "he has done something bad"?
A little girl who should have kept to herself, sneakily manipulated so many evil things in secret, and made a mess of her originally smooth destiny, and actually claimed to be for her good, how can there be such a truth in the world?
As for that Aunt Nianβ
Shu Xing said it was her mother, is it possible?
Su Qingyuan didn't guess the possibility that her mother was still alive, but how could it be her? The woman who murdered the child in her womb several times?
I thought of Aunt Nian's terrible "kill him", I thought of her two dangerous eyes like beasts, I thought of the spell in Lu Li's place a few days ago, and I thought of the cold that was completely cold when the sun set......
Su Qingyuan's heart was cold, just like when the sun fell into the pool.
When a gust of wind came, Su Qingyuan shuddered and raised her head.
Under the corridor behind her, there were a few more tall eunuchs walking towards her.
Su Qingyuan subconsciously stood up straight, intending to leave.
Somehow, the gaze of these people made her feel very uncomfortable.
By the way, the rules of the palace, the palace maids and eunuchs can't look directly at the master - there is a problem with these people!
Su Qingyuan panicked, turned around and was about to retreat to the previous cell.
The moment she turned around, several eunuchs had already surrounded her and blocked her way.
Before the idea of "escaping" could come out, it was snuffed out by Su Qingyuan himself.
Where can she escape?
It wasn't until this moment that she realized that the disappearance of Luoxia, Danyue, and the housekeeper was not accidental.
In fact, she should have found out a long time ago, but unfortunately she was saddened by Shuxing's death, troubled by mysteries, and her heart was too chaotic to ignore the dangers around her.
However, since the other party was able to silently get rid of Luoxia and Danyue in the Yeting Palace, he must have planned it carefully. Even if she had figured out this situation earlier, she might not have been able to escape, right?
Seeing the current situation clearly, Su Qingyuan lowered her eyelids: "Who are you?" β
"The Queen Mother doesn't have to ask, just go with the minions." The eunuch at the head of the board is authentic at a glance.
Su Qingyuan hooked the corners of her lips: "What, don't you want to kill me on the spot?" β
The man didn't answer her question, just pointed in a direction with a blank face.
Su Qingyuan froze, trying to sort out a few clues in his numb and dull mind.
Call? It won't be useful.
Run away? Too unrealistic.
Die? I'm afraid I'm going to really die.
Loud noise, shouting for heaven and earth? Her body couldn't stand the toss.
No matter what she thought, she had no hope of escaping.
But, as long as you don't want to kill her immediately, there is always a way.
After all, there are still people she brought outside the gate of the Yeting Palace, and if she doesn't go out for a long time, someone will definitely come to find her.
Thinking like this, Su Qingyuan's heart settled down a little.
Several eunuchs "respectfully" led her to a very secluded cell, which was even narrower and colder than the one where Shu Xing was just now.
Su Qingyuan was worried that his body would not be able to stand it, but he watched as a big hole slowly appeared on the ground of the cell, and two little eunuchs came out of it.
Actuallyβthere's an authenticity!
Su Qingyuan was completely panicked.
In this way, wouldn't she have lost all hope of being rescued?
She began to regret that she hadn't yelled just now, but it was too late now.
A eunuch rushed up and twisted her arm, and quickly shoved a handkerchief into her mouth.
Su Qingyuan didn't even have a chance to struggle, so she was picked up and thrown into the hole.
Someone down there actually followed.
How many people are there?!
Su Qingkite's heart was full of despair.
Her numb brain slowly worked, and she could finally vaguely guess the identity of the other party.
In the palace, in addition to Lu Li, there is probably only one person who can mobilize so many people and call for wind and rain in the Yeting Palace.
The old palace maid who is more like the master than the master, Nian Aunt.
The light in the tunnel dimmed, presumably the exit from the cell was closed.
The little eunuch in front of him lit up a glass lamp in his hand.
Su Qingyuan looked at the more spacious and smooth tunnel, and was secretly frightened.
Regarding Aunt Nian's identity, she suddenly had a bold conjecture.
The twists and turns of the tunnel were unexpectedly long, and Su Qingyuan fell asleep.
Calculating the distance, I'm afraid I'm afraid I've already left the Yeting Palace. As for which direction to go, she didn't know for a long time.
How long will it take? It can't be a gateway to the outside of the palace, right?
Along the way, Su Qingyuan noticed that there was more than one tunnel, and there were many forks in the road that did not know where to go.
In other words, it is very likely that there is a dense network of tunnels hidden under this palace city!
This fact makes people shudder.
It's not hard to imagine that once these tunnels are utilized, the palace will be destroyed!
Su Qingyuan was terrified all the way, almost forgetting that she was in danger.
Until, the eunuch who was carrying her suddenly let go of his hand and threw her to the ground.
The moment she landed, Su Qingyuan instinctively supported the ground with her elbows and knees, narrowly protecting her stomach.
A sneer sounded beside him.
The little eunuchs retreated silently, and Su Qingyuan finally saw clearly that in front of him was a fairly neatly cleaned stone room, with white walls on all sides, leaving only an extremely narrow small door for people to enter and exit.
What is amazing is that there are all tables, chairs and beds in this stone room, and the lighting is not candles and lanterns, but six brilliant night pearls!
Looking closely at the furnishings in the stone chamber, none of them are mundane. Obviously, the person who built this stone chamber was by no means a bandit and a reckless man!
Su Qingyuan slowly sat up straight, lowered her head to dust off her sleeves, and gently rubbed her sore knees.
"Yes, I am not shocked by the changes everywhere, but there is a bit of a general." A cold female voice rang out behind her.
Su Qing didn't raise his head: "'The wind of the gate'?" It seems that Aunt Nian's impression of Su Yi's old bastard is actually not bad? β
The person who came was Aunt Nian.
Her face and outfit have not changed at all, but her expression is solemn and her steps are calm, and she is wearing an ordinary palace maid's outfit.
She stretched out her hand to Su Qingyuan and smiled: "The words 'old bastard' are used very appropriately. It's just - no matter how bad he is, he is your father after all. The blood is connected, and even death cannot be parted. β
Su Qingyuan raised her head and met her gaze coldly: "Yes, the blood is connected, and death cannot be parted." So, if someone wants to harm my child, I will fight for my life and drag her to hell! β
Aunt Nian's gaze dodged for a moment, and a flash of anger flashed on her face: "You care so much about this evil seed? β
Su Qingyuan stood up with a "whirl": "If you hadn't instructed Shuxing to get in the way, Lu Li and I would not have come to such an embarrassing situation now, and my child would not have become what you call the 'evil seed'!" Now everything is caused by you, and you still want to blame me, who gave you such a big face? β
"You and Lu Li shouldn't have been together from the beginning!" Aunt Nian said coldly.
Su Qingyuan glanced at her and sat down on the edge of the bed unceremoniously: "Why shouldn't we be together?" He killed my own father? Or did you kill my own mother? Otherwise, could it be that he is the brother of my mother's fellow mother? β
"You're using strong words!" Aunt Nian sank her face.
Su Qingyuan raised her head and looked at her: "Why is it 'strong words'?" If there is no revenge for killing his father, and he is not a compatriot, then there is nothing that cannot be together! Take a step back and say - what if there is a revenge for killing the father? What if it's against morality? I want to be nice to him, why should you control me? You can't see it, summon the sky and thunder to split me! β
Aunt Nian was obviously angry, and her lips were blue: "Who taught you this kind of rebellious thought?" Is it Su Yi's old bastard, or Lu Li's little bastard? β
Su Qingyuan glanced at her and curled the corners of her lips mockingly.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door outside, and a small bowl came in.
Su Qingyuan recognized that person, it was Xiao Zhongzi, the eunuch of the Yangju Palace.
A thought flashed through his mind, and Su Qingyuan sat up suddenly: "Shouldn't you be locked up in the dungeon of the Cultivation Palace?" Could it be that the dungeon is also connected to the tunnel? β
"You're not too stupid." Aunt Nian took the bowl from Xiao Zhongzi's hand, and her face gradually softened.
Su Qingyuan looked at the corners of her slightly raised mouth, secretly frightened.
I remember the first time she saw this woman, she felt that something was wrong - this woman's face seemed to be very similar to a person.
She thought about it for months, but she never remembered where this familiar feeling came from.
Now she knows.
After listening to Shu Xing's words, she suddenly remembered that this familiar feeling did not come from anyone she knew, but from herselfβthe person who was a little similar to Aunt Nian was herself in the mirror!
At this time, Aunt Nian had already walked over with the small bowl: "Drink it." β
Su Qingyuan came back to her senses and moved back vigilantly: "I won't drink what you give!" β
"Drink it, and I'll let you out." Aunt Nian said lightly.
Su Qingyuan hooked the corners of her lips: "If you want to drink it yourself, I'm not in a hurry to go out." β
"If you don't go out, someone should be in a hurry." Aunt Nian's tone was soft, with a smile on the corner of her lips.
Su Qingyuan shook her shoulders, looking indifferent: "If you're in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry, you still feel sorry for him for me?" β
"This kid!" Aunt Nian laughed.
Su Qingyuan got goosebumps, and hurriedly jumped up and hid at the table: "You don't have to pretend to be amiable in front of me, the smiling tiger is also a tiger, I won't be fooled!" β
"I won't hurt you, Kite." Aunt Nian sighed.
Su Qingyuan still looked at her vigilantly: "Don't call me 'kite'er', I'm afraid that 'unjust death' will be in your hands!" β
Aunt Nian looked at her steadily: "Shuxing told you, right?" β
Su Qingyuan raised her feet and sat on the table: "Shuxing? A traitorous minion, what right does she have to talk to me? Why should I trust her anymore? β
"Shuxing, that kid ......," Aunt Nian sighed with emotion.
Su Qingyuan said casually: "Shuxing was killed by you." Originally, she was a good girl, but now, she doesn't even have a coffin, she only deserves to be thrown into a mass grave to feed the wolves! β
"Kite, can you talk to me calmly?" Aunt Nian put down the bowl and pleaded.
Su Qingyuan sat on the table and shook her head, her eyes glancing around, but she refused to respond to Aunt Nian's gaze.
Aunt Nian was angry, annoyed, and sad, and she was at a loss for a while.
She really wanted to say a few words to Su Qingyuan, but Su Qingyuan sat on the table, whether she was sitting or standing, she always felt that her momentum was a little lower, and she couldn't create an atmosphere of heart-to-heart talk.
In desperation, Aunt Nian had to sigh: "I'm afraid you're hungry too, I'll ask someone to get you something to eat." β
"Save it, I'd rather starve to death than eat your stuff!" Su Qingyuan leaned against the wall with her eyes closed.
"Then it's as you wish!" Aunt Nian was finally annoyed, and her tone became cold.
Su Qingyuan didn't even move her eyelids.
Aunt Nian picked up the bowl just now again, and was about to send it over, when Su Qingyuan heard the sound of the clothes rubbing, she blocked it casually, and the porcelain bowl fell to the ground with a "clang".
Aunt Nian wiped the medicinal juice on her hands angrily, and sneered: "When I was your age, my temper was even more stubborn than yours - useless, if I starved here for three days, even if I didn't drink medicine, I wouldn't be able to keep your evil seed!" β
Su Qingyuan still didn't open his eyes: "I have already said before, if this child misses, I will definitely drag you to hell with me!" β
"Even if I'm your own mother?" Aunt Nian is on fire.
Su Qingyuan opened her eyes and looked at her mockingly: "Tiger poison still doesn't eat children, how can a woman who has harmed me several times be my own mother?" β
"Kite," Aunt Nian softened her voice, "think about it, when did I hurt you?" All I want to harm is the evil seed in your womb that shouldn't exist, and the bastard who ruined your life - you listen to your mother's words, beat this child, forget about Lu Li, and your mother will take you away from the capital and fly away, okay? β
Su Qingyuan didn't want to bother arguing with her, so she still closed her eyes tightly and was silent.
Aunt Nian stood in front of her for a long time, then suddenly turned around and walked out quickly, closing the door with a "bang".
The outside was immediately locked.
Su Qingyuan jumped up, grabbed the crack in the door and looked at it for a while, but found nothing.
She knocked on all four walls again, and it was all solid.
On the bed, under the table, behind the paintings...... I've searched everywhere I can, but there's nothing to do.
It's an ordinary stone room, with only one door to enter and exit.
With her ability, she can't escape.
Lu Li knew that she was gone, and he would definitely be in a hurry, but no matter how capable he was, he was afraid that he would not have thought that there would be such a terrible net hidden under Miyagi......
Hope of salvation is almost non-existent.
It's not that Su Qingyuan didn't want to show favor to Aunt Nian, but the first thing in Aunt Nian's heart was to get rid of her child, and at this point, there was no room for negotiation.
Now Su Qingyuan has believed Shu Xing's words for seven or eight points - strangely, she does not have half admiration for Aunt Nian in her heart, only fear and vigilance.
Even, there is a bit of hatred.
The appearance of Aunt Nian broke all her beautiful imagination of "mother".
In the past years, she had imagined what her mother would look like. She thought that if her mother was still alive, if she could see her one day, she would wake up laughing even from a dream.
She believed that her mother would hold her, kiss her forehead, and tearfully smile and call "kite".
She believed that she would kneel in front of her mother, on her knees, crying and calling "mother" a thousand times.
She believed that her mother would have mixed joys and sorrows when she learned that she was pregnant, and she would definitely hug her and talk about topics such as "when I was pregnant with you" for three days and three nights......
However, all imagination came to an end today.
Her mother's first words to her were, "Kill him who is a seed of iniquity, and he who cannot be kept"; The first gift she received from her mother should be traced back to the letter that imitated her handwriting; As for stealing things from her bed, casting spells, manipulating eunuchs to destroy pavilions, and causing her to fall into the water...... Pile by pile, it should not be something that a mother would do!
Su Qingyuan didn't understand, and she didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Rather than believing that her aunt was her mother, she was more willing to believe that it was just a lie - a lie made up by Aunt Nian and Shuxing in collusion to force her to comply!
At this time, they can only be regarded as just meeting, and they have tested each other for a few words, and the real confrontation has not yet begun.
Su Qingyuan knew that Aunt Nian would not have such a good temper - if she insisted on not compromising, the rest of her life would not be too easy.
Compared with her own situation, what worries Su Qingyuan more is what is the purpose of Aunt Nian's arrest of her? If it was just to get rid of her child, she only needed to ask a few eunuchs to press her and pour down the bowl of medicine just now!
With such a lot of effort, is it possible that she is just a bait, and Lu Li is the "big fish" that Aunt Nian wants to catch?
It was too tired to sit at the table, so Su Qingyuan returned to bed.
The bed tent was soft and exquisite, and it was even more comfortable than that of Fanghua Palace.
Only then did Su Qingyuan notice that it was very warm in this stone room, and her limbs, which had been frozen and numb in the prison of the Ting Palace, had already regained consciousness at this time.
Such a network of tunnels and such a stone chamber must not have been achieved overnight - how long have these people been planning?
There was no light in the stone room, and Su Qingyuan didn't know what time it was, but she had been in the Yeting Palace for a long time, and someone should have noticed something strange at this time.
Could Lu Li be busy looking for her?
Indeed, as she guessed, at this time, inside and outside the Yeting Palace, the pot had already been fried.
Lu Li personally led a team of guards, and called all his cronies and eunuchs, and searched carefully inch by inch in the Yeting Palace, eager to dig three feet into the ground.
In the end, he found the unconscious Luoxia and Danyue, found Shu Xing's body, found a few sin slaves who seemed to have just died, and even found some bones that had been dead for an unknown period of time under a dry well - only Su Qingyuan was not found.
After Luoxia and Danyue were rescued, they didn't know anything about what happened in between.
Lu Li was so anxious that he almost went crazy. Luoxia and the others were remorseful, and they knelt down one by one and didn't dare to get up.
Danyue cried on the ground: "It's all my fault...... I shouldn't have left my mother's ...... Last time, she was left alone in the Imperial Tomb, and this time it was ...... What if something happens to her......
Lu Li scolded irritably, and said sharply: "Mobilize all the secret guards and search carefully inside and outside the Yeting Palace!" Even if you turn the whole Miyagi over, you must find someone! β
Xiao Luzi hurriedly reminded: "The secret guards have always been only responsible for the safety of the emperor, if they are transferred, you ......."
Lu Li glared, and Xiao Luzi swallowed the words behind.
After a while, Lu Li gritted his teeth and said, "The outside of the Yeting Palace is heavily guarded, and it is impossible for her to fly out with her wings, most of them are still there-"
Xiao Luzi hurriedly continued: "Most of them are still in the Ting Palace, and the minions must send more people to continue the search!" β
Danyue stomped her feet and cried: "It's impossible to fly out with wings, and you can't climb out easily, and you can't find a figure in the Yeting Palace, is it possible that a good big living person will disappear out of thin air?" β
Lu Li's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "There may be an authenticity!" Tell them to pay attention to the walls and floors when searching, and not let go of the slightest clue! β
Xiao Luzi hurriedly agreed, and ran to give the order.
By this time it was already dark.
In the sky above Miyagi, a huge firework burst out with a "pop".
Lu Li was stunned for a moment and raised his head.
The second and third fireworks exploded in the air one after another, and the brilliant colors dyed the glazed tiles on the palace into colorful streams.
Lu Li tilted his head and tried to widen his sour eyes.
The fireworks were originally a birthday gift he prepared for Su Qingkite.
At this moment, the fireworks have lit up the night sky, but where are the people?
In just a few months, waves of unsettled waves have risen again and again, and counting them carefully, she has not had a few days to live in peace.
He promised her wealth and peace, but in the end it was still an empty word!
