Scam (2)
Bai Hanyan's words were loud, she saw that the eighth lady was stunned when she heard the words, the smile on her face stiffened little by little, and then her face changed completely, she hooked her lips and smiled, and the guess in her heart became more and more certain.
At this moment, the moon above the sky has set in the west, this night seems to pass very quickly, the sky gradually has a tendency to pale blue and white, the silver-white full moon leaves a slight mark on the inky blue sky, it seems to disappear at any time.
Bai Hanyan's eyebrows turned, and her mind turned thousands of times in an instant, although she didn't know what happened to her father in the Qiluo clan back then, but she knew her father, since he was ruthless and put her life here, the inside story must be more important than her life, Bai Hanyan didn't dare to be ambiguous, the top priority was that she had to keep this life and dig out this secret, so now she can only mess up the situation at this moment!
"Don't you talk nonsense, I don't understand what you're saying? Pusha was killed by your father's untrustworthy words! The eighth lady's face was pale, squinting at her, her cold eyes were even darker, her smile was cold, and she was so cold that she couldn't breathe: "Dead girl, when you die, you still want to stir up the relationship between our ancestors and grandchildren, you are more hateful than your father, I will kill you with my own hands!" ”
"In this case, why should the Eighth Lady be annoyed and angry, wouldn't it be a self-confession, twenty-five years ago, I am afraid that the death of Yang Zhao and Chang Fengxuan's father was not so simple, what immortality, what reincarnation, do you think this lie is really not flawed, even Chang Fengxuan became suspicious, how did Pu Xia die, I'm afraid the Eighth Lady still has to think of a good explanation." Bai Hanyan smiled softly, glanced at Chang Fengxuan, who was pressed to the ground by the guards on the side, and saw that his face was stunned, and he looked at the eighth lady blankly, with a completely unbelievable look on his face.
"Nonsense, Pusha was killed by your father!" The Eighth Lady opened her eyes violently, rolling up with monstrous anger.
"Grandma, is she telling the truth? Twenty-five years ago......" Chang Fengxuan asked in a hoarse voice.
"Presumptuous, I am your grandmother, your father is my half-son, I will still harm him!" The Eighth Lady struggled hard to break free from Grandma Nine's restraints, but no matter how much she moved her arms, her wrists were handcuffed by Grandma Nine's hands and she couldn't move.
Bai Hanyan stared at her and said in a cold voice: "Then why don't you dare to talk about what happened twenty-five years ago......
"Okay, aren't you messy enough!" Grandma Nine dragged the Eighth Lady back with all her strength, but her eyes fell on Bai Hanyan's body, and she sank suddenly, just a flat glance, but it made Bai Hanyan's whole heart tremble.
Everyone in the hall was whispering, Grandma Jiu's eyes suddenly swept over them, everyone lowered their heads in fear, the room was quiet, and no one dared to say anything.
Qiao Chu wanted to step forward and say something, but Sui Han stretched out his hand and pressed him up, looking at him and shaking his head silently, Qiao Chu glanced at Bai Hanyan, pursed his lips, and swallowed the words in his mouth.
"It seems that this is providence!" Grandma Nine raised her head and exhaled a long breath, she stood up, supported her crutches, and limped towards Qiao Chu, and the eighth lady beside her was also forced to stagger towards him, Grandma Jiu wrinkled her face, squinted her eyes, stood in front of Qiao Chu and threw the cane in her hand, trembling and stretching out her hand to Qiao Chu, as soon as she spoke, she was coughing with a dumb throat.
Qiao Chu hung his head, his face was gloomy, as if he didn't want to pay attention to her, Bai Hanyan actually saw an indescribable hatred on his face, Grandma Jiu looked at his appearance, and sighed lowly: "Chu'er, you blame me, I know." ”
When Qiao Chu heard this, he was still silent, his face was as miserable as white paper, and Grandma Jiu wanted to caress his hand and hung down, and her eyebrows and eyes were also dark: "Chu'er, don't worry, my agreement with your mother will definitely take effect, regardless of whether this sacrifice can be sacrificed or not......"
Qiao Chu raised his eyes suddenly, with joy in his eyes, and hurriedly looked at Bai Hanyan, Bai Hanyan knew that he was happy that he could sacrifice without her, a living person.
And the courtiers and royal family behind Grandma Nine shouted together: "Grandma Jiu! ”
Pu Luo jumped down from the high platform, walked over to Grandma Jiu, stared at her face, and said calmly: "Grandma Jiu, even if you are the god of my Qiluo clan, you can't be so unruly, that agreement is simply ridiculous......"
"The rules are dead, but I'm still alive, Puluo, you think I don't understand your thoughts, but after all, we are at fault first, twenty-five years, it's been twenty-five years, how many twenty-five years are there in a person's life, aren't you enough?"
Puluo's eyes were scarlet, and her fists were clenched to death, Grandma Jiu shook her head, and said in a tone that looked at death as if she were at home: "I swear by the blood and soul of the gods, whether I live or die, this agreement is still in effect, and those who violate the oath are all restless!" ”
"Grandma Nine!" All the Qiluo people in the hall knelt on the ground in horror, crying in a low voice, Grandma Nine suddenly waved her sleeves and waved her hands, everyone suddenly became cramped, withdrew their hands slightly, and lowered their chins one by one, and all the sound stopped.
After a pause, Grandma Nine glanced sideways at Bai Hanyan slightly, hooked her lips and smiled, Bai Hanyan's heart sank again, and sure enough, she heard Grandma Jiu's voice coming to her ear calmly: "Don't be happy too early, I agreed with your father that you will choose both paths, and this has nothing to do with whether you sacrifice or not." ”
Bai Hanyan's heart shrank, forcing himself to stabilize his mind, his eyes were full of autumn water, he looked at her deeply, and the corners of his lips gently opened a smile line: "Okay, since that's the case, then Grandma Nine might as well tell me, what was the agreement my father made with you at the beginning?" ”
"You'll know." Grandma Jiu's face still maintained a calm look, even with a hint of a smile, but the smile without temperature was colder than ice and snow: "Bai Hanyan, some things are predestined a long time ago, no one can change them, that's your fate, you have to admit it." ”
Bai Hanyan pursed his lips, his already black and white eyes seemed to be suppressing some emotion, he was silent for a moment, and his pink lips opened lightly: "Okay, I can wait, since this is my life, I am not in a hurry to give this life to you, there will be a moment when the truth will be revealed." ”
Bai Hanyan knew that this was an opportunity, an opportunity for her to find out everything.
"What a clever girl." Grandma Jiu's eyes slowly crossed her face, and gradually stared at Sui Han's body, for a long time, she sighed slightly, and said two words meaninglessly, "That's it." ”
Bai Hanyan clearly saw that Sui Han's body was shaking, and he was a little unsteady on his feet, and his drooping eyes were foggy, Grandma Jiu shook her head, turned her face to face the door of the main hall, squinted through the figures prostrate on the ground, and looked at the crimson figure sitting on the ground in her unruly robe at the moment, she straightened her voice and said: "Lord Duan, I am afraid that this sacrifice will not be able to get my wish, I am afraid that I will disappoint Lord Duan." ”
Kneeling in the crowd and gradually leaning towards the two rows, revealing the lazy face of Duan Changge sitting on the ground, he half-tilted his head, the door through the silver glow of the cold moon slanting, his body was like a layer of hazy fog, his face was particularly cold, and he picked his lips wickedly: "Grandma Nine is really joking, this sacrifice can't be sacrificed in front of the official, Grandma Jiu is getting her wish." ”
The last four words were deliberately weighted, as if they meant something, Grandma Jiu's heart jumped violently, and she raised her eyelids in horror, only to see that the lights and shadows in the hall were in a trance, and the cigarette smoke was swirling, Duan Changge's condensed face was as straight as Judge Yama staring straight at her, which made people shudder, Grandma Jiu narrowed her eyes slightly, gently raised her lips, and said in her heart, this kid really saw through her mind, no wonder the emperor would send him this time.
"Lord Duan laughed, there was a conflict within the Qiluo clan, but it made Lord Duan laugh, seeing that the sky was about to brighten, Lord Duan must be tired this night, the year is cold, greet Lord Duan for me, don't be abrupt and lazy, the old body and sister still have to catch up, some things are stranded for a few days, it's okay."
Duan Changge lowered his eyes and smiled, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he nodded as if he knew it, he slowly stood up from the ground, stretched out two palms and patted the dust on his body, raised his eyes and looked around Grandma Jiu's body for half a circle, that glance seemed to be a warning, and it seemed to be a mockery, Grandma Jiu bowed her head and gave a salute, and then turned around.
Duan Changge sneered and rolled his gaze back, as if he had inadvertently landed on Bai Hanyan's body.
Bai Hanyan bit his lip and stared at his deep eyes like eagles, and the lights in the hall seemed to be like daylight, and they couldn't see through the haze in the depths of his eyes.
Duan Changge closed his gaze in an instant, turned around and walked towards the door, leaving the main hall, a red shadow was getting fainter and fainter in the night of the dream, and Bai Hanyan's gaze was fixed on him no matter what.
As soon as Duan Changge left, Grandma Nine waved her hand to signal everyone to disperse, and it was chaotic for a while, Qiao Chu behind her looked at her, her eyes sank, and there seemed to be a surge of color, Grandma Nine grabbed the hand of the Eighth Lady and left the inside of the hall, took a step, she paused again, turned around and quietly glanced at Sui Han, Sui Han lowered her head, sighed and nodded, but this scene was caught in the eyes of Bai Hanyan who withdrew her sight from outside the door, she stared at her heart, only to feel a smell of conspiracy spreading around her, but for some reason, She always has an inexplicable sense of closeness and trust for Sui Han.
When the crowd dispersed, Bai Hanyan never saw the Boundless Old Man and Mo Yun, she turned her head and wanted to ask Qiao Chu, but when she saw him slowly walking towards Chang Fengxuan, she pursed her lips and didn't ask.
And at this moment, the corner of her eye glanced at Sui Han's figure, and saw that she was quietly walking towards the side door on the side of the main hall through the scattered crowd, Bai Hanyan frowned, raised her legs and followed.
The moonlight was still bright, Bai Hanyan was hidden behind a rockery, and when he saw Sui Han enter Duan Changge's garden gate, after a while, Duan Changge, who had changed into a brocade white robe, walked out with Sui Han's steps.
Bai Hanyan was suspicious, and inexplicably remembered the look in Grandma Jiu's eyes when she left, and had a faint ominous premonition in her heart, pursed her lips, and followed.
