Volume 1 The Orphan Girl of the Imperial Capital Chapter 167 Past and Present Lives
On the outskirts of the city, the huge manor was covered with a layer of heavy red, and Yue Jingxuan walked around, even looking at the corners, correcting some things that were not properly placed.
Tianshu strode over: "Master, the one in the palace has already made a move, secretly spreading rumors, saying that you and the lord of Leping are both people with unknown fate, if the two of you get married, the Dayong Kingdom will definitely be in calamity." ”
Yue Jingxuan raised the corners of his lips: "Nowadays, the best use is the great drought and natural disaster, and he will naturally take advantage of it." ”
"There is still room for operation to take advantage of natural disasters, if he follows his previous ideas, regardless of the announcement of the Lord of Leping into the palace, and directly attacks her, we really can't prevent it."
"You don't know him, he has the heart to become an emperor, but he doesn't have the courage to bear the criticism of the world. Otherwise, in order to hide the truth of the original usurpation, the historians of the Dayong Kingdom would not have been killed. ”
"Master, Concubine Lan deliberately notified you, do you need to pay extra attention?"
"Concubine Lan? Li Hanyan...... Let the eyeliner in the palace pay more attention, and if necessary, help her, maybe she will do something to help us again. ”
Yue Jingxuan stretched out his hand to brush a bush of peonies, his heavy eyes gradually softened, and the petals on his fingertips were beautiful, but they couldn't compare to Yun Lan's smile, and she was about to marry her......
Tianshu thought of Li Yanran's experience, and couldn't help but nod his head, this Concubine Lan Niangniang may not really do it: "By the way, master, the prison has been taken care of, you can go over at any time." ”
"Prepare the car, go now."
The sun was blazing outside, and the heat was unbearable, but the prison was gloomy, even with an abnormal shade.
Mu Huaijin was lying on the ground, there was a messy straw under him, he struggled to move his fingers, and a piercing pain came, making him dare not move again.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, which made him tremble involuntarily. In the past few days, he has lived like a year, and he has even begun to look forward to death, as long as he dies, he will no longer have to accept those kinds of torture.
But those jailers were very measured, and after being drugged, he was always awake, sober and accepting the torture of life rather than death.
The two jailers opened the cell door and kicked at Mu Huaijin: "Okay, don't pretend to be dead." ”
was kicked in the rib wound, Mu Huaijin couldn't help but tremble, and lay on the ground numbly without moving.
The jailer violently pulled him up, dragged him directly to the open space beside him, and poured the barrel directly at him from the side.
Mu Huaijin was defenseless, choked on water, and coughed violently.
"Hey, hey." The two jailers let out a disdainful laugh, "This literati's small body is thin. ”
"Whatever, wash him quickly, and the nobles will come later."
"Yes, yes, this kid doesn't know what he's done, so many people pay attention to him, and I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky."
"Tsk, the affairs of the nobles, where can we little minions know."
"It's also ......"
The bucket was filled with freshly drawn well water, which was unusually cold, and it made people's teeth tremble when it washed down on the body, and after a few buckets of water, Mu Huaijin couldn't help grinning the corners of his lips, feeling that he was finally going to die, but unfortunately, until he was thrown back into the cell, he didn't die.
I don't know how long it has been, there are footsteps coming again, and he doesn't bother to open his eyes, whatever it is, it has nothing to do with him, until a cold voice sounds:
"Mu Huaijin?"
“…… King ...... Ning'an"
Mu Huaijin slowly opened his eyes and saw the unicorn pattern boots in front of him. He struggled to raise his head and look at Yue Jingxuan's cold face.
"When will it rain?"
"What?"
"This king asks you, what day will it rain?"
"You should ask God, not me about a dying man." Mu Huaijin sneered, and the corners of her cracked lips ached.
"Tianxuan, I want to know the answer." Yue Jingxuan turned around and ordered.
Tianxuan and Tianshu immediately stepped forward and dragged Mu Huaijin to the innermost interrogation room in the prison. Yue Jingxuan sat on the chair that was cleaned up in the arraignment room, quietly waiting for the results of Tianxuan's interrogation.
Half an hour later, Tianxuan respectfully stood behind Yue Jingxuan: "Master, you can go and ask." ”
At this time, Mu Huaijin was still the same as he had just been dragged in, and he didn't seem to have the slightest scar, but only he knew that his bones were all broken, and he was completely paralyzed on the ground like a puddle of mud.
"When will it rain?"
“…… King Ning'an, let me tell you...... What's in it for me? ”
"I'll let you die a happy death."
"Haha...... Ahem, okay...... The only thing I want right now is ...... That is, dead, I lost...... Completely ...... losing"
"Answer me." Yue Jingxuan didn't want to listen to him go around in circles anymore.
"Don't worry, I'll tell you...... What you want to know and what you don't want to know...... Tell you all...... After all, you and I are among the same people. ”
Tianshu stepped forward and scolded coldly: "Presumptuous! ”
Mu Huaijin laughed twice: "Isn't it?" We are all human beings who are not supposed to live in this world. I came back with my memories, and you escaped the knot and survived until now. ”
"What did you say?"
"I started over with my memory, in the last life, you died a long time ago, and you were killed by Feng Yuyan's aphrodisiac medicine, and then the three princes successfully ascended to the throne, and I was the marquis and the prime minister, and the scenery is the same!"
Indifferent as Yue Jingxuan, he couldn't help but feel a beat in his heart at this moment, of course he remembered that Feng Yuyan drugged him, that is, that time, Mu Yunlan used blood to help him renew his life. If Mu Yunlan didn't help him, would he already be dead......
When Mu Huaijin saw Yue Jingxuan's expression, she couldn't help but smile more and more: "Don't be too surprised, we are not the most special, the most special should be Mu Yunlan." Originally, her character should have remained the same, cowardice was useless, and finally she went crazy to death in the Three Princes' Mansion......"
"When is it going to rain?"
Mu Huaijin's eyelids jumped: "I told you this, do you still dare to marry Mu Yunlan?" ”
"Looks like you want to stay alive."
"No, it doesn't hurt to tell you, the day after tomorrow, my mother's birthday, June 27......"
"If what you said is right, June 27 is your death day, and if it is false, you can think about the consequences." After Yue Jingxuan finished speaking, he turned around and walked out directly.
"King Ning'an, think about Mu Yunlan, she must have been reborn with her memory, why does she hate Yue Xiaohan so much, is because in her previous life, Yue Xiaohan married her, and then lost her, she wants to take revenge, and you are just a stepping stone for her to take revenge, without you, and others, you are a dignified generation of princes, famous, are you willing to be used by a woman?"
Yue Jingxuan's footsteps did not stop.
"King Ning'an, Mu Yunlan had a miscarriage for Yue Xiaohan in her last life, don't you care?"
Yue Jingxuan stopped: "Tianxuan, I don't want to hear him speak again." ”
"Yes."
Out of the prison, Tianshu looked at him nervously, and couldn't help but worry in his heart.
Yue Jingxuan returned to Biezhuang and saw the red silk curtain hanging on the gate, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly.
Tianshu felt that his heart was raised, and he couldn't help but say: "Master, Mu Huaijin has a personal grudge with the county lord of Leping, and he can't fully believe his words, the person she likes must be you......"
"What do you want to say?"
"Master, the lord of Leping is a good girl, don't let her down." Tianshu didn't expect that one day, he knew that he was overdue, but he still said what was in his heart. The lord of Leping has paid too much for his master, and he even doesn't care about his own life and death, such a girl can't live up to it.
"I won't punish you this time." Yue Jingxuan waved his hand and called the guards, "Remove the silk curtain on the east side and replace it with a new one, don't you see that it is a little dirty on it?" ”
"Yes, lord."
Tianshu was stunned and couldn't come back to his senses, and Tianxuan on the side patted him on the shoulder: "That's right." ”
Tianshu couldn't help laughing: "I still use your stuffy gourd to say." "He clearly exceeded the rules, but the master said that he would not be punished this time because he was right? In this way, it seems that the master did not take Mu Huaijin's words to heart.
Yue Jingxuan returned to the newly arranged house, gently stroked the furnishings in the room, imagining the scene after Yun Lan got married, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.
Mu Huaijin's words did not make him untouched, on the contrary, he was really shocked.
Many times, he would also think that Yun Lan had paid a lot for himself, and he had sacrificed a lot, so that they were equal, but now he knew that a long time ago, if Yun Lan hadn't rescued him, there would be no Yue Jingxuan in this world, let alone any concession and sacrifice.
Moreover, Yun Lan in the previous life, was she married to Yue Xiaohan?
Although it felt very bizarre, he had an intuition that what Mu Huaijin said was true.
"June 27, the day after tomorrow...... Tianshu, prepare the horse, I want to go to the Emperor's Mansion. ”
Bizhu helped Mu Yunlan's neck with medicine: "Miss, bear with me, the slave maid will rub these purple marks apart, so that they will be scattered faster." ”
"Hmm."
Mu Yunlan looked at the mirror, there was a pinch mark on her neck, and the bruises and purples looked unusually dazzling.
After rubbing it for a while, Mu Yunlan's tears were about to come out, and Bizhu stopped: "It's almost, in the evening, the slave will come to give you medicine again." ”
"Well, then I'll sleep for a while." Mu Yunlan lay on the bed, gently touched her neck, a trace of gloom flashed in her eyes, Yue Xiaohan's attitude made her angry in her heart, but she didn't want to make a difference, so she could only press it down.
There was a sound of footsteps at the door, Mu Yunlan ignored it, still closed her eyes and suppressed the emotions in her heart, until she felt that the footsteps were close to the bedside, and there was a unique cold fragrance with it.
"Uncle Huang?"
Yue Jingxuan's gaze fell on her neck: "What's wrong?" ”
