Chapter 363: She Must Die
And today......
She said lightly: "The things that were at your fingertips at the beginning, since they have been lost, why should you miss them?" I don't have to make people laugh at Ji Gelao, he is a person who doesn't even count the trade-offs in his heart. β
Ji Yushen changed his words and looked at her, "If I can't come up with a reason today, will you make public the matter of my design to poison Wan Concubine, so that my power is not guaranteed, and my life is even worried?" β
Su Youyi pursed her lips.
She didn't know.
At the Spring Banquet that day, after she confirmed that the silk handkerchief on Cui Shao's body came from Li Changzai, her first reaction was indeed that Li Changzai had killed Concubine Wan. But when she thought about it again, she knew that Li Changzai did not have this ability in the palace.
Not even this motive.
Rather than saying that she wants to eradicate the queen, it makes more sense to eradicate herself first.
Through Li Changzai, Su Youyi suspected Ji Yushen almost instantly, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was him.
At that time, she really wanted Ji Yu to pay for her life.
Concubine Wan is her younger sister, how many ups and downs she has accompanied her in this palace, and how many times she has helped her. Such a kind woman, but for no reason she was poisoned in the middle of the night, and she died without blinking.
Not even a word remained.
But at this moment, she still wanted Ji Yushen to give her a reason, to give her a reason to persuade her not to avenge Concubine Wan.
"Tell me, why do you have to eradicate Li Ge's old party, and you won't let go of even a single Li Changzai?"
Ji Yushen turned his back, looked at the verdant bamboo forest not far away, and slowly closed his eyes.
There was only the sound of the wind around, and from time to time there was a bird's call, Su Youyi stood quietly in place, waiting for Ji Yushen to answer.
After a long time, he turned around, "At the beginning, my Ji family was full of people, who did Elder Li Ge let go?" β
Boom β
Like a thunderbolt, Su Youyi's eyes widened in shock, "What did you say?" Back then, the Ji family was killed, and my father was killed because of ......"
"It's Elder Li Ge."
Ji Yushen curled the corners of his mouth, a little sarcastic, "I can't think of it, right?" I became the son-in-law of my father, my mother, and my family, and I had a child with the enemy's daughter. β
"No, it can't ......"
Su Youyi sat on the big stone beside her, ignoring the fallen leaves and dust on the stone, "How do you know it's Elder Li Ge?" Who told you that? Why didn't you tell me sooner? β
Ji Yushen looked into her eyes, "Youyi, I'm sorry." In fact, I already knew who our enemy was before we left Lingnan, but I never told you. β
Su Youyi almost collapsed.
For so many years, she has never tracked down the truth of the year, because she and Ji Yushen fled in too much hurry back then, and there were no clues in their hands, so there was no way to find out, like looking for a needle in a haystack.
But what she didn't expect was that she just thought there was no clue.
Ji Yushen knew who the murderer was as early as in Lingnan, but he never told her.
"Actually, my father told me a few days before it happened. He said that the evidence of corruption and bribery of the county magistrate was in his hands, and he, as a squire, could not watch the people being sucked by their parents and officials. He said he would report the evidence to the state government, so that the county magistrate would be punished and no longer prey on the people. β
Only then did Su Youyi understand why Ji Yushen looked much calmer than her when the incident happened.
Because it was a disaster for her, and she had no clue, but for Ji Yushen, it was very clear-
The Ji family is a squire, very good to the people and villagers, and never makes enemies with others, how could they be suddenly destroyed? There is no other possibility than to offend the people of the government.
And Ji Yu deeply remembered what his father said, "...... The county magistrate is a protΓ©gΓ© of Li Ge Lao in the capital, and I don't know if I handed over this evidence to the state capital, and the adults of the state capital will make decisions for the people. Even if they don't dare to call the shots, I'll have to give it a try! β
When his father said this, he looked resolute and looked at death as if he were home.
However, Ji Yushen, who was still young at that time, never thought that he would really die, and he would die so tragically.
Su Youyi said: "You already knew that it was Li Ge Lao who killed your whole family and my father, so you made up your mind to be the son-in-law of the Li Mansion from the beginning, didn't you?" You made up your mind to abandon me from the beginning, and you made up your mind to get revenge...... Sacrificing yourself? β
It turned out that Chen Shimei, who was secretly scolded by her countless times back then, the truth is like this.
She didn't even understand it until today.
She didn't blame Ji Yushen for abandoning her, she only blamed Ji Yushen for not telling her about this matter earlier and letting her contribute, after all, it was her biological father who was also killed back then.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner? Why don't you let me avenge my father? β
Su Youyi almost couldn't control her voice, she shouted such a sentence, and then almost collapsed and sat back, two lines of tears flowed out.
Ji Yushen said softly: "How can I tell you, do you want to make you like me, no human being, no ghost or ghost?" β
He smiled faintly, "For those who have fallen into hell, I will be enough for one." You are a free egret growing in the beautiful mountains and rivers, you should do whatever you want and live happily for the rest of your life. To avenge my Ji family and avenge your father, it is enough to leave these things to me alone. β
When he said this, he still had a smile on his face, as if he had long been accustomed to disguise.
After a long period of disguise, this mask cannot be taken off.
Su Youyi asked herself, if Ji Yushen had told her the truth back then, she didn't know what her life would be like now, and she might have lost her nature in disguise.
She suddenly thanked Ji Yushen very much, thanking him for never telling her the truth. This kind of thinking is very selfish, and it makes her ashamed of all kinds of cold words she used to say to Ji Yushen......
How did he feel when he listened to his sarcastic words about how cruel he had become?
Ji Yushen said: "Only when Concubine Wan dies, Su Qing will wholeheartedly support you, the daughter of Lianzong, and treat you as his own daughter." Only when Concubine Wan dies can the queen completely give up that position. Li Ge Lao's power is so strong that even the emperor has to be afraid of three points, you and I know this. If you don't do it step by step, what year and month will you have to take revenge?! β
Su Youyi exhaled deeply.
She understood.
"I don't understand until now why you are so disgusted when you mention Li Ziyue, and so contemptuous when you mention your children. They are nothing but instruments of revenge in your eyes, and you have to spend time with them......"
Su Youyi didn't know whether to sympathize with Ji Yushen or Li Ziyue's mother and son.
Li Ge Lao made mistakes, but their mother and son are innocent.
Ji Yushen didn't want to discuss the issue of Li Ziyue and the others, so he only said: "Now that you know the truth, do you still want to expose me for poisoning Concubine Wan?" β
