Dark, damp dungeons.

The candle flame jumped sharply as the sword wind swept in, and it was only after a moment that it was quiet again. The half-truncated blade lay on the ground, reflecting the man's embarrassed face. He gasped for breath and knelt on the ground covered in blood, his supporting hands pressed to the ground, trembling incessantly.

"I... I've said everything I'm going to say, and I really don't know anything else!! The man looked up at the man behind the table with great difficulty, his teeth chattering.

The young man sitting behind the table was dressed in a dark brocade robe, and he casually supported his head and looked lazily at the man on the ground. He wore half a mask, the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, he had a cold smile, and his posture was lazy and easy-going, but he did not feel a trace of warmth at all, but a great fear rose in his heart.

"I don't really know anything... Your Royal Highness King Xiao, Your Highness, please spare me! The man couldn't help but tremble at the young man's smiling gaze, and said tremblingly, "The Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never been in contact with us, I'm really-"

"Long-winded." The young man looked away coldly, his slender fingers bent slightly, and tapped lightly on the table again and again.

As soon as the words fell, the hands of the people listening to the order on the side fell with knives, and the man didn't have time to say the next sentence and swallowed his breath. The wide-eyed corpse lay on the ground, with a clear panic in its eyes.

In the opposite prison, several men in black stared at the corpses on the ground, subconsciously revealing fear.

Shen Huai sneered, turned his gaze to them, and wrote lightly: "Continue the trial." ”

Someone responded with a bow, then went inside and grabbed a man in black and pushed it out, and the person knelt directly beside the corpse.

Shen Huai glanced indifferently at the trembling person, a little sneer crossed his eyes, and he said lightly: "What? Is there only one of you under his nephew, or does he look down on this king so much, thinking that you alone can take the king's life? ”

The man knelt on the ground, staring straight at the ground, not daring to look at the corpse on the side, nor daring to look at Shen Huai.

Rather disappointed, Shen Huai waved his hand to signal the punishment. In the miserable scream, Shen Xiaowang leisurely poured a cup of tea, and tapped the wooden table with his fingertips again and again.

Hurried footsteps came from the entrance to the dungeon.

Luo Feng turned out, although the speed was extremely fast, but there was a bit of obvious surprise on his face. He hurriedly ran to Shen Huai and said in a low voice: "Master, there is news from the mansion, saying that someone came to the door to ask for a meeting, and I heard that you were not in the mansion and waited, and I am waiting outside the mansion at this moment." ”

"Who." Shen Huai said lightly.

Luo Feng glanced at Shen Huai's expression and coughed lightly: "It's from the General's Mansion, Miss Gu Si-"

"Waiting outside the house now?" Shen Huai paused coldly and glanced at Luo Feng with a strange expression.

Luo Feng, who was furious from the bottom of his own master's eyes, hurriedly nodded, but he wondered how the master who had behaved abnormally when he heard the news of the fourth lady in the past was behaving normally at the moment.

Of course, he didn't dare to show half a point on his face: "Yes, it's here at this moment." It's Gu—"

"Let her wait!" Shen Huai sneered, his eyes were a little annoyed, and his eyes suddenly fell on the prisoner who was being tortured, "This king is busy with interrogation, where can I have time to see her!" Since I want to come to the door to ask for a visit, I didn't know how to send someone to send a prayer post before, so I don't know the rules, so I wait there to learn the rules! ”

There was no sound in the entire dungeon except for the terrible screams of the prisoners.

Luo Fengsi said that in previous years, whenever someone came to the door to ask to see, Shen Xiaowang always said impatiently "I don't see"; There is no shortage of people who are waiting at the gate of the mansion without seeing them, Shen Xiaowang smiled very good-looking, and coldly ordered "Let them", and then what should I do.

Where is it like today, and it has been said for so long, which seems to be an excuse and even a little temperant...... Luo Feng stopped his thoughts in time, raised his eyes and glanced at his master secretly, and silently affirmed it in his heart.

Master, this is still not normal.

Luo Feng nodded silently, and was just about to turn around and leave, when he saw Shen Xiao Wang Ye stand up suddenly, and snorted coldly: "Forget it, this king doesn't care about her, please go into the mansion to see her." ”

Luo Feng: "........"

Dungeon Others: "........"

Luo Feng: "....... Master, you don't have to go. It wasn't Miss Gu Si who came, it was the maid next to Miss Gu Si. She didn't wait long, and when she heard that you weren't there, she waited until the housekeeper came out, handed over the things she had sent to the housekeeper and left, saying that you were busy with affairs and inconvenient to disturb. ”

Lord Shen: "........"

The boy sank his face. He didn't speak, he maintained a standing posture, but his eyes were cold, the corners of his lips were slightly hooked, and he set off a little joyless smile, which made people feel their hearts tremble when they saw it.

Feeling that the person in front of him was unhappy, Luo Feng hurriedly lowered his head and said, "The fourth lady sent a brocade box, saying that it was a thank you gift to the master, to repay the kindness of the previous few days. ”

"Return to the king!" Shen Huai sneered, "There is no sincerity at all!" ”

At this moment, Gu Mingxiu, who had no sincerity at all, got out of the carriage with the support of Agarwood, and almost tripped over it for some reason. Agarwood helped her stand firmly, quite worried: "Girl? ”

"It's okay, not careful." Gu Mingxiu shook his head, and his face under the curtain was expressionless.

Gu Liyi got out of the carriage behind her, took her arm and went down the alley. Agarwood didn't get too close to Gu Mingxiu's orders, but just kept a certain distance from the two of them and followed slowly.

The two of them went out of the alley, and walked to the right again, and soon saw a huge willow tree standing in a corner of the small courtyard. Walking slowly to the door, I found that the door was not closed, but I seemed to know that there was a visitor today, so I deliberately left the door.

Gu Mingxiu pushed open the door and saw a man in sackcloth lazily leaning against the shade of a big tree and greeting the two of them happily, and his other hand was still turning over the grilled fish on the fire in front of him.

He smiled and invited them to come and sit down, his eyes glued to the grilled fish.

Gu Liyi: "....... Sister Xiu, this is the person. She grabbed Gu Mingxiu's arm and whispered to her ear, "He also wore this dress last time, and now he is still eating grilled fish here, maybe he is really a liar, should we go back." ”

"It's coming, it's going to be in a while." Gu Mingxiu said lightly and walked over calmly.

There were three mats on the ground, and the man in the cloth sat on one by himself, leaving two more. Gu Mingxiu glanced back, and sure enough, he saw that the agarwood did not follow up.

She sat down calmly, and Gu Liyi also sat down silently.

The man in cloth looked at Gu Mingxiu with a smile, and his eyes wandered on her face without scruples, but that gaze did not carry any frivolity, just a simple look. Separated by a white veil, Gu Mingxiu didn't care.

Seeing this, Gu Liyi couldn't help but feel angry: "Look at what! Who would have allowed you to be so rude! ”

She was so angry, but the man in the cloth didn't have any shame. The thick eyebrows were raised, the man in the cloth glanced at her, smiled and looked at Gu Mingxiu again: "Even through this layer of cloth, I can see your face clearly, compared with the last time I looked at you, it really looks better at this moment." ”

He smiled, but his tone was extremely easy-going: "Temperament judges," he paused, looking at her meaningfully, "It's just that the edge is too exposed, it's not a good thing." Gu Hou—"

"I'm calling you now, Miss Four."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Liyi's face turned pale instantly, and he nervously pressed his knees and didn't dare to speak. Gu Mingxiu looked back at the man in the same cloth clothes silently, and then slowly lifted the white veil, took off the curtain fence, and raised his eyes to look at the other party lightly: "Why is this so?" ”

"The last time I saw you, I just borrowed someone else's pen and pushed it with a piece of paper." Shi Shiran, the man in cloth, turned over the grilled fish and looked at her happily, "I have been in the palace for many years, and I have been scheming to survive, so I don't want to say that there is no resentment or hatred in my heart." Because of the hatred in his heart, he was able to come back, but there was a chance to say that there would be gains and losses. ”

"Miss Gu, have you ever thought about it, where is it so good to be reborn as a human being for nothing?" The man in cloth said, "I said, your life is borrowed, so naturally you have to pay it back." The girl has been weak since she was a child, is it really just because she was also weak in her previous life? Are you really unaware of the direction of your life? ”

Gu Mingxiu smiled, and his tone was extremely flat: "What's the matter, before I die, I won't let go of any of those who deserve retribution." She curled the corners of her lips, "This life was originally snatched, and it was used as a business." Gu Fu's life for this, I don't think it's worth it. ”

Her smile was extremely cold: "If you really calculate it, it should be the group of people in the Gu Mansion who picked up the cheap." The lives of this palace are compared to them, and they are not worth it. ”

She rarely called herself "Bengong", and she almost never used this title in front of Gu Liyi in her previous life. When she said this title, she couldn't help but feel a bit of decisiveness and indifference around her, which made people dare not infringe.

Gu Liyi was stunned, and his eyes turned red.

However, without waiting for her to speak, Gu Mingxiu suddenly smiled again, fading away from indifference and sharpness, and the corners of her lips raised a little gentle arc: "Besides, even if my life is at the end, it is only my life." There is nothing wrong with Yiyi, there is nothing wrong with my mother, there is nothing wrong with the General's Mansion, there is nothing wrong with Ah Jing..... the people I thought about Hu in my previous life are all wrong in this life. ”

She had known for a long time that things were not so good.

The body is weaker than in the previous life, and he wandered in front of the ghost gate three or four times, but he was able to survive.

The two lives are completely different, she is famous in Yangzhou in this life, but Gu Changge has lost the hearts of the people; An Li is now healthy, but Dong Qing has been imprisoned; Gu Jing escaped a disaster when he was young, but Gu Xuan was dying. And the period when she should have known the prince and even when she fell in love has been erased, and there is no love in the previous life.

However, she was often sick and faint, and she had repeated dreams, which she had never had in her previous life. Gu Mingxiu had some suspicions in her heart, and she also secretly investigated. It's just that whether it is Gu Liyi, who was reborn together, or An Li, whose life was changed, they are all safe and sound, no different from ordinary people.

She had to deduce that the variables were all on her, just because she was the biggest variable. Therefore, he didn't dare to let Gu Liyi participate too much, everything was driven by himself, step by step according to the plan, and the karma was on the wicked.

Gu Mingxiu is naturally not resentful or resentful in his heart.

The grace of the previous life is all paid for the water, and the anger and hatred in the heart can not be described in words. However, she can have a chance to amend, she can take revenge on those who should be avenged, and she can also protect the people she wants to protect. Even if her life was dangerous and her days were only short, she had nothing to resent.

It is far better to be able to have the opportunity to help each other and be able to come back for a lifetime.

"Isn't it my great luck to be able to protect everyone with my own strength."

The man in the cloth looked at her quietly, the two of them were facing each other, and the girl's eyes were frank and undeceiving.

Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
