199 Find the real culprit
After finishing the song, Ling Jiantong already felt something cold sliding down the corner of her eyes, she slowly put down the piccolo, and before she could turn around, she had already fallen into the warm embrace.
She can still smell the faint fragrance of plum blossoms on Mu Jinghong's body, which used to be reassuring, but now it has become painful.
"Mu Jinghong, let go of me." Ling Jiantong muttered, the voice was so slight that he was afraid that if a gust of wind blew, it would disappear.
Mu Jinghong's chin rested against her neck, and his arms tightened her almost with all his might, for fear that if she was not careful, Ling Jiantong's eyes would disappear.
"Mu Jinghong" Ling Jiantong's hand was on his wrist, and he wanted to break it open, but it took a long time, and it was in vain after all.
"Eyes, I'm sorry."
Mu Jinghong moved his lips slightly for a long time before he said this sentence full of complexity.
No matter how hard Ling Jiantong's heart was, it also fell apart under Mu Jinghong's words, and tears flowed down, full of bitterness.
"Mu Jinghong, we can't go back, you let it go, I will marry Situ Qianchen the day after tomorrow, let's not be entangled anymore."
She deliberately said this sentence to Mu Jinghong, she hoped that he could recognize the reality, through so many days of drunken life and death, Mu Jinghong had long been unable to distinguish what was reality and what was illusory, all he could have was the person he was holding now, only Ling Jiantong.
"Don't get married, eyes, I'll take you away, let's get out of here, find a place where no one knows us, let's start over, okay?"
Ling Jiantong pulled out a wry smile, escaped, who didn't think about escaping, when he was going to marry Gong Chuyue before, she desperately wanted to find a way to travel back, but in the end, she escaped from fate, that is, Situ Qianchen was poisoned and was in danger.
She didn't want to run away anymore, she was too tired.
Loving someone, it's so tiring that she doesn't want to love anymore.
Ling Jiantong closed his eyes tightly, pulled away Mu Jinghong's clamps, and turned to face him: "Wake up, I won't go with you, I promised Situ Qianchen, I will take care of him, I will marry him, and accompany him through his last days." ”
Mu Jinghong looked away, and suddenly laughed: "Eyes, are you sure that the poison in Situ Qianchen's body has not been solved?" ”
"What do you mean?" Ling Jiantong twisted his eyebrows.
Mu Jinghong knew Situ Qianchen, he would never do something that he was not sure of, so the matter of his poisoning was definitely not that simple, but unfortunately, he did not find evidence now, otherwise, he would definitely expose his true face in front of Ling Jiantong.
"Eyes, can you wait for me for a few days, just a few days, I will definitely let you see what kind of person Situ Qianchen is."
"Forget it, it's too late." Ling Jiantong took out the piccolo in his arms and handed it to Mu Jinghong.
Mu Jinghong looked down, she was still close to her.
"I don't need this flute, I'll give it back to you."
Is this going to be completely broken?
Mu Jinghong took it, Ling Jiantong didn't want to stay any longer, if she stayed here for a while, she was afraid that her hard decision would collapse again.
The two piccolos are finally together, but their masters will be separated forever.
In the palace, Mu Zhan has been bedridden for the past few days, and all the court affairs have been handed over to the crown prince Mu Luo to take care of.
Mu Luo stood in front of the bed in the dormitory, looking at Mu Zhan, who was already terminally ill, his eyes were thoughtful.
Imperial Doctor Xu from Tai Hospital walked to Mu Luo's side and motioned to take a step to speak.
"What's wrong with my father's illness?"
Imperial Doctor Xu lowered his voice as low as possible: "The emperor has already been weak in his body, I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand these two days." ”
Mu Luo's eyes tightened, and he nodded for a long time before he motioned to Imperial Doctor Xu to go down.
Mu Luo looked up at the stars in the distance, and he sighed softly, two days later, there was a star in the east that was destined to rise.
The wedding date has arrived, and the capital is very lively, but Mu Jinghong sat in front of Ye Zhengbai's tomb, working hard for a day and a night.
The empty wine jugs were almost all over the ground, and Mu Jinghong was already drunk.
"Big brother, today is a good day for your second brother to get married, and he is going to marry Yan'er."
Mu Jinghong raised his wine glass and poured it in front of Ye Zhengbai's tomb.
"They can't come to pay tribute to you, I'll do it for them."
When the wine ran out, Mu Jinghong gradually quieted down, and in addition to the sound of the wind in his ears, there was the sound of festive firecrackers in the distance.
"Big brother, I love my eyes so much, why do you say we have become what we are now."
Mu Jinghong's heart ached, as if a knife was pulled one by one.
Mu Jinghong took out two piccolos from his arms, he thought about it, since the love is no longer there, what is the use of keeping this piccolo, but after all, he is still not willing to throw the piccolo into the brazier, thinking for a long time, where to throw it, it is better to bury it in front of Ye Zhengbai's grave.
Anyway, Ye Zhengbai was also their witness.
Mu Jinghong dug a pit in front of Ye Zhengbai's tomb little by little, but when he was halfway through the digging, he suddenly found that something was wrong, something was buried in this soil, his eyes froze, and he accelerated his speed, and sure enough, it seemed to be a sword buried here.
When he dug it all out, he found that this was not Ye Zhengbai's Qinggan Sword before his death?
He remembered that when he found Ye Zhengbai, Qingganjian had long been missing, how could it be buried here now?
The only people who know Ye Zhengbai's tomb are him, Situ Qianchen, and Ling Jiantong......
Memories rushed back, Mu Jinghong suddenly thought that the first time he came with Situ Qianchen to pay tribute to Ye Zhengbai, at that time, he said that if there was a Qinggan sword, the eldest brother would be very happy, but Situ Qianchen said that the sword had been integrated with the eldest brother.
Could it be Situ Qianchen?!
The truth approached step by step, Ye Zhengbai told him before his death that he was going to find the Seven Star Chest to make a break, and he never came back until he found the body.
So the one who can get the Qinggan Sword can only be the real murderer!
It's Situ Qianchen, it's really him!
If that's the case, wouldn't Ling Jian Pupil be in danger.
Mu Jinghong's drunkenness had fully awakened, he took the Qinggan sword and immediately rushed to the capital, but at the moment when he was about to enter the gate of the capital, he was surrounded by a group of officers and soldiers.
Mu Jinghong was in a hurry, but the officers and soldiers held weapons to let him dismount, Mu Jinghong was a little anxious, and shouted: "Don't you know who I am? Don't get out of the way yet! ”
The officers and soldiers took out the token and said sharply: "Seventh Prince, someone has reported that there are a large number of weapons hidden in your mansion, trying to prepare a rebellion when the emperor is critically ill, I will take you back to the Seven Prince's Mansion on the order of the prince!" ”
Conspiracy?! It's Mulo's trick again!
"What a joke, I've never bought a sword or a sword in my house, I'm in a hurry now, get out of here!"
Mu Jinghong wanted to break through, but a large number of officers and soldiers immediately appeared in the capital, and dozens of people surrounded Mu Jinghong in the center, and they couldn't move at all.
Mu Jinghong really wanted to grow a pair of wings now and fly to the Zhenguo Mansion to block Ling Jiantong's family affairs, but he ......
The officers and soldiers escorted Mu Jinghong back to the Seven Kings' Mansion, and the crown prince Mu Luo was standing in front of the two boxes, wandering back and forth.
"Prince, the Seventh Prince brought."
Mu Luo raised his eyes to look at Mu Jinghong, whose face was pale, and didn't say too much nonsense, just pointed to the two boxes in front of him and asked, "What's in this?" ”
Mu Jinghong glanced at it: "The fruit sent by the Zhenguo Mansion that day." ”
"Fruit?" Mu Luo's tail tone was raised, and he raised his hand to signal the guards around him to open it, and the top of the box was indeed full of fruit, but when the guards opened it with their weapons, there were a hundred and ten swords lying inside.
Mu Jinghong was also stunned at this time, this box was obviously sent by Ling Jiantong personally that day, how could it become like this?
"Old Seven, you have all the physical evidence, what else do you have to say?"
"I said, this box was sent by the Zhenguo Mansion, if you look for it, you shouldn't look for me, you should go to Situ Qianchen!"
"About the box, I have asked the people of the Zhenguo Mansion, they will conduct a strict inspection before entering the mansion, and the fruit is put in it, but why it is transported to you and become a weapon, it is nothing more than two possibilities, one is that the weapon you bought with your own money is placed in the box, and the other is that there is a problem with the person who transported the box at that time."
Mu Luo paused deliberately, looked at Mu Jinghong's face gloomy, and asked: "If you are innocent, then there must be something wrong with the person who transported the box, now you might as well tell me, who is the person who gave you the box?" ”
Mu Jinghong lowered his eyes, he knew that it was Ling Jiantong, but he couldn't say that he didn't want this crime of rebellion to have anything to do with Ling Jiantong.
Seeing that Mu Jinghong didn't speak for a long time, Mu Luo couldn't bear it anymore: "If you insist on not saying it, Lao Qi, the crime will fall on your head." ”
Mu Jinghong gritted his teeth, Situ Qianchen, it must be Situ Qianchen and Mu Luo who teamed up to set him a trap, deliberately preventing himself from exposing Situ Qianchen's various evil deeds when he got married.
Mu Luo tidied up his clothes and said proudly: "Someone...... coming"
"Wait"
Gong Chuyue walked out of the house, she stared at Mu Luo, and said word by word: "Don't you want to know who the person who transported the box is?" Then I'll tell you. ”
"Gong Chuyue, shut up!" Mu Jinghong snorted.
But Gong Chuyue was determined to denounce her, and no one could stop her: "Mu Jinghong, don't be stupid, Ling Jiantong is clearing the obstacles for her future, and you are still stupid to protect her?" ”
"You don't have to worry about my business!"
"You think I want to take care of it, if something happens to you, the property that belongs to me will be seized, I can't manage so much, not to mention that this Ling Jian Tong is just self-inflicted." Gong Chuyue threw down this sentence, and then said to Mu Luo: "Prince, the person who came to transport the box that day was Ling Jiantong. ”
Mu Luo was surprised, he beckoned to the guards, and ordered him to go to the Zhenguo Mansion to bring Ling Jiantong.
