It was late at night, and a cold and dusk moon hung in the sky.

Yan Guishan was on top of the flying frost and wandered alone in the courtyard for a long time.

He is not admiring the moon, he is regretting.

regretted that he shouldn't have been a novelty at that time, and provoked Luo Qi, a poisonous pepper, and then he couldn't get rid of it.

He was originally a prodigal son who wandered in love, as long as he was dewed, he didn't want to stay together. How was she forced to have no way out by Luo Qi and her fierce father, and had to marry her? Why did you give birth to a child with her?

His life was ruined by Luo Qi.

He'd always thought so, and today it's even more determined.

- It's so completely ruined!

Even if Mu Cangping can tolerate him, can Mu Zijian tolerate him? That boy has never been an open-minded person!

The figure under the moon gate flashed.

Yan Guishan suspected that he had seen it wrong, and when he looked at it again, he was so frightened that the three souls went to the seven spirits. An arrow rushed up, enveloped the man into the house, and closed the door silently.

"My aunt," he said, too, was furious, and did not dare to raise his voice, "what are you doing here at this time?" Looking for death? ”

"Guilang, I'm leaving."

The woman took off her hat, and her face could not be seen clearly in the dimness, only a red lip reflected the starlight that entered the window at night, one by one, gorgeous and dazzling.

Yan Guishan was stunned for a moment. "Where are you going?" He asked.

"Back to Lishan." The woman said, three points sad and seven points happy in her words, and said, "Gui Lang, have you forgotten?" We met at the foot of Li Mountain and got to know each other. That year, the golden wind blew and the maple leaves Danon, and you said that I looked so beautiful dancing under the tree-"

A remark evoked Yan Guishan's memories of the past, and stepped forward to hug the woman, "I've suffered you all these years, but I can't stand you." ”

He was still thinking about what the woman had just said, "You said you were leaving, that old man—"

"I'm tired of being old and immortal." The woman was disgusted, not angry but a little happy, "He has married a young and beautiful concubine again, where is he in love with me, a half-old." I've asked him for a letter of resignation. Only if I go, you can be well. You go and tell the eldest prince, it's not Mu Lan......"

Yan Guishan hugged the woman tightly with emotion, and called affectionately: "Yun Niang, Yun Niang." ”

He said softly: "When this matter is over, I will go to Lishan to find you, I will definitely divorce Luo Qi's poisonous woman-" He said a moment ago gritting his teeth, and instantly tender, "Then we can stay together for a long time, and I will never want you to suffer again." ”

"With Guilang's promise, Yun Niang's life is enough." The woman tiptoed to seal the man's lips, and her arms wrapped around like vines, "Say goodbye today, I don't know when we will meet again, Guilang, you love me well again......"

The faint starlight poured in through the window, and the wheezing sound in the room continued, and the shadows swayed, and I don't know if it was the fluttering curtains or the entangled people.

***

Yan Guishan died.

Poisoned to death.

Luo Qi and Yan Guishan had a quarrel like that yesterday, and they slept in separate rooms. And one person is in the east and the other is in the west, and I can't wait to separate them as far away as possible.

Early in the morning, Luo Qi was scolding in the courtyard, saying all kinds of ugly things, but Yan Guishan didn't react at all.

She felt that something was wrong, slammed the door and went in, and saw Yan Guishan lying on the bed neatly dressed, and three words were written on the table with her fingers: I'm sorry.

When I walked over and touched it, the body was already stiff.

Yan Guishan has too many women to be sorry for in this life.

Luo Qi didn't know who he was saying "I'm sorry" to, whether it was to her, to Mu Lan, or to the women he had let down...... Man is dead, and no answer can be found.

Luo Qi hated Yan Guishan all his life, quarreled all his life, and fought all his life. But he also really loved him all his life.

She pounced, grabbed the man who would never fight back by the neck, bit him, grabbed scissors and stabbed him, and vented all the resentment she had felt against him for so many years. Then, holding the cold corpse, he slammed headlong into the wall.

Yan Yucai played with the little peach and green peony in Yingge Fang all night, and then dispersed, his mind was groggy and he was a little unsteady when he stood up.

But his luck was so good today.

Casually called, opened casually, and easily won twelve in a row. The silver ingots in front of him were piled up like small hillstacks, shaking his tired eyes more and more unable to open.

When the neighbors came to tell him that his parents were dead and asked him to go back to collect the body, he was still a little reluctant.

For as long as I can remember, my father has been away from home all day. When he came back once, his mother picked up his clothes, looked and smelled, and once she found the clues, she cried and made trouble, and finally ended up fighting and smashing everything in the house.

At first, he would be so frightened that he cried, which made his parents even angrier. Later, I only dared to cry quietly, and when I was tired of crying, I climbed into bed hungry.

Later, when they beat him, he sat on the side and didn't cry or be afraid, he just felt noisy.

Occasionally, when his mother was happy, she would take him to the market.

He met the little girl in the school who always secretly stuffed cakes for him and was willing to listen to him say sad things, and happily told his mother all the way. Mother sneered: Just like your perverted father, you are still so young.

When he got home, he lost his temper and dropped his newly bought toy. Father looked at him again and shook his head and sighed.

He knew the unspoken words—just like your mother Yaksha.

He was a child full of shortcomings, annoyed, a burden, and he should not have come into this world.

Yan Yu leaned against the door, looking at the dark red blood on the stone blue wall, and lowered his eyes again, looking at his father who was clenched by his mother's stiff arms.

His complexion turned out to be serene.

Sure enough, when a person dies, he doesn't know anything. If he knew that he couldn't get rid of this entanglement even if he died, wouldn't he have taken this path?

He took out all the money from the house and distributed it to the neighbors to help with the funeral. I walked in the direction of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant step by step.

At this time, he just wanted to drink something.

Then I walked and walked, and I cried for some reason.

It's a pity that the pile of silver left in the gambling house and didn't bring it out?

***

Mu Zhongcheng hurriedly walked on the way to Yan's house.

After coming out of the new house yesterday, he went to find Yan Guishan again. Yan Guishan still refused to say who the woman in the small courtyard who was having fun with him was. also bit Luo Qi back, saying that Luo Qi and Mu Lan had a deep holiday, and deliberately replaced the sachet to blame Mu Lan, even the muddy gold incense and the so-called candied grapefruit peel, he had never seen it, it was all quietly arranged by Luo Qi.

That's a bit vicious.

Mu Zhongcheng really didn't expect that in order to excuse himself and his lover, Yan Guishan would frame his wife who had been tied up for many years with red mouth and white teeth, wanting to put her to death.

Just as he was stunned, Luo Qi broke in, scolded Yan Guishan for having no conscience, and scolded Mu Zhongcheng for being unfair, and dedicated to protecting Mu Lan's little prostitute.

The husband and wife were in front of Mu Zhongcheng, you punched and I kicked and scolded while beating and scolding, the tables, chairs and teapots all became weapons, tiles flew all over the sky, and the scene was so chaotic that it was indescribable.

Mu Zhongcheng brushed his sleeves on the spot, and regretted it a little when he got home.

He thought about it all night, but still felt that the mysterious woman was the key person in the whole matter.

Other evidence—candied pomelo peel, muddy gold incense, and embroidered characters on her belly pocket—could only increase Luo Qi's suspicions. What really made Luo Qi admit that Mu Lan was killed, and then fought hard, was the sachet that the woman left in the small courtyard.

The sachet contained the phoenix pith incense specially prepared by Master Wenji for Mu Yueting.

Mu Zhongcheng sent someone to Wenji to check, and only twelve boxes of this incense were made, and twelve boxes were sent to Cuifang Courtyard.

I sent it with the incense-making recipe.

Wenji is a time-honored brand, knows the rules, and will not and dare not mess around.

Mu Lan's phoenix pith incense was asked for by Mu Yueting, where did the phoenix marrow incense in the woman's sachet come from?

Mu Zhongcheng decided that he had to ask the woman's name no matter what today, even if he brought Yan Guishan, a veteran of Mumen, back to be tortured.

He stood at the gate of the Yan family and remembered what his grandfather Mu Fanghe had said.

Mu Fanghe said that he lacked Mu Cangping's ruthlessness, as well as the decisiveness and resoluteness to seize the opportunity when it came, and he would be a good helper, but he couldn't be alone.

Now he believes.

He hesitated for only one night, and the opportunity slipped away completely.
