Chapter 100: Like a Dream
After he came back, a little servant in the mansion gathered around him and talked about what happened in the mansion today.
Yu Shilu listened but didn't say anything, walked all the way towards the study, pushed open the door, and saw Nie Yuwu in the study at a glance, sitting in his usual seat.
Nie Yuwu raised his head, "You're back?" "Every word was exhausting.
He said yes, came back, "Are you waiting for me?" ”
Nie Yuwu sat cross-legged for too long, both legs were numb, "The child of the Jade Zheng Weng is gone." ”
"Hmm."
He didn't care.
said, "You're leaving tomorrow?" ”
Nie Yuwu repeated, "The child of the Jade Zheng Weng is gone. ”
He said to himself, "Tomorrow to go, I'll let Jingyi send you, I have a house in the south of Liangzhou City, you can-"
"Yushi Law, did you deliberately fail to understand my words?"
He felt a little headache, rubbed it, and suddenly remembered Fu Kang'er's hands, which were as comfortable as soft, "I'm not deaf." ”
"Fan Zhu said, the princess gave her some sesame red bean cake in her small kitchen yesterday, and the jade zither lord was in front of her, not good to brush off the kindness of the main mother, after eating, she slipped today, what do you say is going on?"
Yu Shilu clenched his fists under the table, "How do I know? ”
"Then do you know that Fu Kang'er pressed her everywhere, and even the subordinates in the mansion looked at the princess's face and bullied her."
She is obviously the lord of the princess, and she is the only pearl in the palm of Her Royal Highness the princess.
The pain of losing his mother is not over, and he has to suffer a lot of white eyes.
"So, what does it have to do with you?"
Nie Yuwu's heart was cold, she didn't know that the husband and wife outside the lake of tears were so affectionate.
"Have you ever loved her?"
Yu Shilu smiled bitterly, "I also want to ask you this question, have you ever loved me when you have been by my side for a long time?" ”
"You don't have a sincere heart for anyone, how do you want me to love you!"
She finally said what was in her heart.
"You are frivolous, wanton, and amorous, how much weight does that word come out of your mouth? I'm afraid it's lighter than a feather. Nie Yuwu touched the cold corner of the table and suddenly withdrew his hand.
"Did you try to get in here? How do you know that I don't have a heart? He pointed to his heart.
"If you have, you won't ignore the jade zheng, you won't deal with Kang'er, you won't welcome one woman after another into the house, by the way, it's not just women, right?" She added as she looked at him coldly.
"You're right, maybe after so many years, I have long lost my heart." Only then did he admit it.
"Even if you don't have a heart, you should be responsible, since Yuzheng has become your person, you shouldn't let her be wronged."
He retorted to her words, "The responsibility you said is based on conscience, and I don't even have a heart, let alone a conscience." ”
"Master Yu, I've never seen someone as bad as you."
"I've never seen someone as righteous as you."
"Why are you so bad?"
"Maybe you are born, and your heart is black." He joked, tilting his head and drinking the cold tea on the table.
"So, at the end of the day, you're not going to help Yuzheng, are you?"
"Yu Zheng is a member of the Yu Shi family, the cowardly Yu Shi family has been gnawed off by other wild wolves, and she can't fly anymore, she can't even protect herself, what can she change when that child is born?"
These words coincided with what Yu Zheng said, it turned out that Yu Zheng had long known that Yu Shilu would not help her, she just had a glimmer of hope, but Nie Yuwu thought that it was a whole piece of hope.
A wry smile crossed her lips as she stood up on the table, "I shouldn't have come." ”
Yu Shilu's fist clenched and let go, and he opened his hand and grabbed the corner of her clothes, "You have to leave tomorrow?" ”
"Yes, I have to go."
"Stay in the Nine Kings' Mansion, and I will ensure that you will be prosperous and rich in this life."
Nie Yuwu pulled out the corners of his clothes, "I don't need anything you give to others." ”
In an instant, his hands were empty.
Yu Shilu withdrew his hand, "Whatever you want, you can go." ”
Gone, **, none of it has anything to do with him.
He didn't like nosy people in the first place, but now he's become that kind of person.
Mingzhe is his choice.
She left the Nine Kings' Mansion and was killed by Chasing Yun It has nothing to do with him, there is no good result in a different head, and it has nothing to do with him, in this life, he has nothing to do with her.
He didn't need the love that anyone gave him, and with love came fear and jealousy, and he was exhausted from this word, and he no longer had any strength to tempt.
It's not necessarily a good thing that she's leaving. The shoots that were about to grow were peeled off in an instant.
"Master Yulu, since I want to leave tomorrow, then I want to make it clear to you, you and I don't owe each other, Jiuxingbai cured my mother's back disease, I finished drawing a fire map for you, he didn't cure my mother's eyes, I didn't watch the fire build, continue to change the structure of the fire for you, these are two very fair things."
"That's true." He nodded.
"In the future, we will return to the bridge and the road to the road."
"Of course."
Another unhappy breakup.
It was the first time that Yu Shilu had met a woman who had quarreled with him in order to help other women.
It was also the first time that Nie Yuwu had met such a ruthless man as him.
She came out of the study and happened to meet Jingyi who was wandering at the door.
Nie Yuwu saw Jingyi and said, "Jing Chief." ”
Jingyi nodded, "What did you say to the Ninth Master, blaming him for not helping the Jade Zheng Master?" ”
"You know about it, too?"
Mo Yun was right, the news in the Nine Kings' Mansion spread as fast as lightning.
Jingyi stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation, wanting to find another place to talk to her.
Nie Yuwu followed him and took a few more steps.
"What does Mr. Jing want to say, you might as well say it bluntly, there is no one else here."
Jingyi told her everything that happened in the palace today.
The uncle of the lord of the jade zither used to be the imperial history of the emperor, and later for helping the princess's family intercede, he was condemned by His Majesty, suspended and exiled to Rizhao, approaching a small township in the Southern Wei Dynasty.
His Majesty was angry about being stabbed in the hunting ground, and although the very favored Jieyu was rescued, the imperial doctor diagnosed that he would not be able to prolong the royal heirs in the future.
If at this time, His Majesty knows that the owner of the jade zither is pregnant, I am afraid that the jade zither will not even be able to save his life.
Although Fu Kang'er was reckless and selfish, what he did today could be regarded as saving Yuzheng's life by mistake.
Even if Yuzheng keeps the child in her womb today, and when the fetus is pregnant, the existence of this child cannot be announced, and it may even affect the law of the rain master.
Therefore, this child is not destined to be born, and this is also true from the perspective of the big picture.
Besides, today His Majesty said that he would arrest Jade Zheng and put him in prison, Yu Shilu did not hesitate to kneel in front of him, begging him not to hurt Jade Zheng because of this, and said that Jade Zheng was already his inner man, and if he was guilty of her, please step on his corpse.
It's not that he doesn't care about Yuzheng, but he hides his care, there is a blood feud between him and Yuzheng's parents, and not killing her is already his love when he was a child.
Nie Yuwu lowered his eyelashes and looked at the square green bricks on the ground, the gaps in the pattern had been quietly stained with green because of the recent rain, and the moss and water were mixed in it.
"Miss Nie, don't be so malicious to the Ninth Master, he is sometimes very helpless."
She raised her head, "The people here are really miserable. ”
Jingyi smiled, "Who doesn't live by looking at the face of the person on the throne, even if he is a royal child, he has to respect him and fear him, the majesty of the king lies in this." ”
Nie Yuwu agreed to Yuzheng to ask Jiu Ye to help her administer justice, but at this time she blushed, and she would not believe it.
She stood in front of the main door of the jade zither and waited for a long time, but the jade zither did not want to see her.
The evening dew wet her sleeves, and Nie Yuwu sighed and finally turned to leave.
Just as she was a few steps away, Fan Zhu pushed the door and stopped her, "Miss Nie." ”
"Is Lord Weng willing to see me?"
Fan Zhu walked quickly, "No, Lord Weng has already rested, she ...... She didn't blame you, after all, it has nothing to do with you. ”
"I ......"
"Let's go."
"Okay, then I won't bother."
"Miss Nie, His Royal Highness Lord Weng said, I wish you a smooth journey."
"Thank you."
Nie Yuwu hadn't had time to ask for ink rhyme from Yu Shilu.
Before she died, the dead Mo Yun knew that the old lady with a smile in the wrinkles in the house was actually strong in martial arts, ** fast and simple.
She couldn't understand why she didn't yell when she died, but the moment she closed her eyes, Mo Yun's confusion was solved, her silence was an irresistible sadness, and her silence was the last protection for Nie Yuwu.
If she had to do the last thing for her, it would be silence, she couldn't let Nie Yuwu know that her mother, who was by her side every day, was actually full of murderous intent, so that Nie Yuwu would have unbearable heartache and would no longer dare to trust anyone.
She is such a kind person, Mo Yao wants to hide the darkness behind her, even if it costs her life.
She poured the pot of sweet plum tea to the kitten in the yard to drink, and in less than half an hour, the cat fell to the ground, bleeding from the corners of its mouth.
This pot of sweet tea was the sweet tea that the old lady had asked someone to boil in the morning and sent to Nie Yuwu, and they would leave the Nine Kings Mansion after drinking it.
She didn't know who the sweet tea was poisoned from, but it was strange, because in the morning Nie Yuwu said that she didn't want to drink sweet tea, and the little girl in this pot of tea drank a few cups fortunately, but she was fine after drinking it.
Why, this sweet tea is blood for this cat.
Mo Yun picked up the kitten, sighed helplessly, and suddenly saw that there was a pillow on the wooden shelf behind the cat that Nie Yuwu took out to bask in the sun this morning.
Instinctively, she walked over and saw a few shallow cat paw prints behind the pillow. Mo Yun ran down the cat's back, and found the dried petals in the pillow between its fur.
One of her hearts shuddered.
Seeing that there was no one around, he hurriedly dug a pit and buried the cat.
Looking down at the few dried flowers twisted in her hand, she clenched the dried flowers tightly and remained silent.
Jiuxingbai told her that this kind of flower is called Liaoyan, which grows in Boxi, and has an extremely long flowering period, and it can only be seen once in three years.
"Is it calming?"
"Calm your nerves? This flower is a good medicine to stop bleeding, but if you smell it for a long time, you will have the consequences of losing your mind and having nightmares at night. ”
Mo Yun said, no wonder Nie Yuwu has always slept unsteadily at night recently, and asked her if she had smelled the fragrance of flowers, which turned out to be next to her pillow.
It's ridiculous to say that this flower is the pillow core that Mrs. Nie took to calm Nie Wu's nerves.
"Can you help me see what this is?"
She pulled out a small bottle of sweet tea from her long sleeve.
Jiuxingbai hurriedly covered his nose when he smelled it, "This is the smell of Zhiqin grass." ”
"Is it **?"
"It's just slightly poisonous, and it will cause abdominal pain when you drink three catties of water made of Zhiqin grass in a row, but there is no worry about your life."
"Then why did you avoid it?"
"Although the latter is slightly poisonous, but the former is mixed with the latter, it is highly toxic, if it is not detoxified for an hour, the blood of the whole body will coagulate, and Da Luo Jinxian can't save it."
Mo Yun nodded, "Please also ask the doctor not to tell the Ninth Master about today's events." ”
"Okay." He agreed.
"Will you tell him?"
"Yes." He didn't hesitate.
Mo Yun rolled her eyes, "Then you still promise me?" ”
"I ...... Meaning, the girl also knows that I am the ninth master's person, I have to do whatever the ninth master tells me to do, and I have to reply whatever the ninth master asks me. ”
Mo Yun said goodbye.
She was a little confused, and she didn't know whether she should go and talk to Nie Yuwu, if she didn't want to believe her, what should she do?
She was going to ask Mrs. Nie in person.
When she came to her room, there was not a single maid inside or outside.
Mo Yun saw that she fell asleep leaning against the grapevines in the small courtyard, originally these bamboo poles were for grapevines to climb, but later the vines were removed, and the bamboo poles were bare.
Mo Yun stepped closer, raised her hand slightly, and covered one of her faces with her hand, leaving only her eyes.
Next, the information she received did not shock her, but now it was more like a kind of resentment and helplessness, which gradually turned into calm as she lowered her hand.
She was now sure that the man in black who had knocked her unconscious that day was the old lady in front of her, and she recognized her eyes.
Just as Mo Yun wanted to quietly turn away, the old lady asked behind her, "What did Mo Yun girl find interesting?" ”
Mo Yun steadied her steps, "It's nothing, it was Miss Nie who asked me to see if the old lady was asleep again." ”
She said, "Am I asleep or am I pretending to be asleep?" ”
Mo Yun turned around and saw her bright eyes that had regained their brilliance, she might have been able to see it a long time ago, but she had been deceiving Nie Yuwu.
"The slave doesn't know."
"Moyun girl, my little girl wants to take you out of the house."
"The slave knows that she wants me to serve you for the rest of your life."
"Do you want to?" The old lady asked.
Where is the old man's usual fatigue on her face, and it is a kind of arrogance that is ready to move at the moment.
"Of course I want to, to be able to serve the old lady, the slave and maid are fortunate to have three lives."
She shook her head, "But, I don't think you have that chance. ”
Mo Yun looked back at the courtyard, there was still no one, she knew in her heart that she would definitely die today.
"Why did you kill Miss Nie?"
The old lady said, "If you want to know, you have to ask me in the next life." ”
At the last word, Mo Yun fell sullenly at her feet, her neck severed by an invisible weapon, only the left layer of flesh was still attached to the head, if someone came to help her in a moment, her head would fall to the ground.
She didn't have a chance to tell Nie Yuwu that there was a poisonous snake nesting next to her, so she had to be on guard.
There is no chance in this life.
But when she slowly closed her eyes, she thought, even if she had the opportunity, she couldn't bear to tell Nie Yuwu about it, she was the one who regarded her mother, and she wanted her life, which daughter could accept that her mother wanted to kill her.
Nie Yuwu said that she had never seen her mother since she was a child, and the brothers and sisters around her had no parents, so she was not very sad, but when she went to a place where there was a house and heard the child call her mother and father, she was always sad and sad for a long time.
Mo Yun has been a slave for twenty-six years, and no one has ever treated her so well, she can see that Nie Yuwu is sincere, if you treat her well, even if it is half a point, she wants to repay her thousands of times.
She just got up at night like an ordinary slave to cover the quilt for her, Nie Yuwu would rub her hazy eyes and hug her, pat the quilt and let her sleep on the soft bed together. She tried the dishes for her, and Nie Yuwu would fill the porcelain bowl she tried with meat, and give her everything to eat, just because she once told Nie Yuwu that her family sold her to slave traders because they couldn't afford to eat meat during the Chinese New Year. She didn't tell Nie Yuwu, in fact, she didn't like to eat meat that much.
She was so good, Mo Yun couldn't say such terrible words.
How could she bear to tell her that she was a liar by her side, a complete liar, a liar who wanted to take her life.
The old lady was plain, unstained with blood, and returned to her room, and when nothing had happened, she turned her head and fell asleep.
Not long after, a maid entered the courtyard and shouted, "**! **Finish! ”
The blood on the ground flowed into a stream, and Mo Yun lay on the source of the stream, no longer breathless.
The other maid had the audacity to run over to probe her snort, and as soon as she picked her up, her head fell to the ground, and the maid fainted on the spot.
Coincidentally, Nie Yuwu happened to see the moment her head fell.
She's been having nightmares lately, one after the other.
She suspected that this was also a nightmare, covered her eyes, and looked again, the blood on the ground had not disappeared, and Mo Yao's head had not disappeared when she fell to the ground.
Such a terrible nightmare, she just couldn't wake up.
She had to wake up, and when she woke up, Mo Yun would sit on the edge of her bed again, pat her on the back and coax her, and then she would fall asleep again. She would sing her songs that children liked to listen to, and bless her with good dreams.
Must wake up, this nightmare is the most horrific scene she has ever seen.
She tried again and again, but nothing changed.
Yu Shilu appeared beside her at some point, "Are you okay?" ”
"Why are you in my dreams too?" After saying that, he fell headlong into his arms.
Yu Shilu supported her and frowned, "It's useless, this little bit of blood scares you out." ”
Pick her up and leave, "Clean up the yard, and so will the corpse." ”
He glanced through the door, but he couldn't see the old lady at all.
I thought helplessly, "I slept so soundly after killing someone, it was amazing." ”
