Chapter 189: There is no light ahead, and each other is open fire
Ruan Si had never heard him say a word about his parents.
He kept that secret in his heart for many years.
"Qiaoqiao," Yan Yingzhou sighed, "If it weren't for you and me, I wouldn't want to pull you into this dead end." β
Ruan Si nodded, just listening quietly.
Yan Yingzhou was silent for a long time, and his deep voice finally sounded slowly.
"My father was the head catcher of the six gates of the capital, and the last thing he did in his life was to arrest the criminals who had gone missing in the prison."
"That prisoner is ......"
Broken Intestines.
That name, without him having to say it, Ruan Si could answer it immediately.
But Yan Yingzhou lowered his eyelids and said a completely unfamiliar name.
"Song Yanzhi."
"Song, Song Yanzhi," Ruan Si said stunned, "who is that?" β
Yan Yingzhou stared down at the tip of his shoe, and a painful look that almost escaped appeared on his face.
"Husband," Ruan Si saw his strange appearance and quickly comforted him, "It's okay not to mention the past." β
She didn't care about missing the secret in Yan Yingzhou's heart forever.
She didn't want to see him look so lonely in front of her.
Yan Yingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, looked up at her and said, "Qiaoqiao, if I tell you the truth, I will pull you to a dead end." β
He hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, "You can not follow me on this road." β
Ruan Si grabbed his hand and felt his fingertips cold.
"Yan Yingzhou!"
She was a little angry.
"I thought I gave my life to protect you, and you risked your life to save me, and we don't have to be so separated."
"Or do you have to separate you from me?"
Yan Yingzhou shook his head and said, "The more you know, the more dangerous you will be." β
"And," his brows furrowed in a shallow Sichuan character, "once you set foot on that road, you will be the enemy of the current imperial court." β
There is no turning back on such a path.
Ruan Si laughed angrily.
"Yan Yingzhou, if you want to be a bandit, I'll pick up the knife and go with you."
"If you want to return to the countryside, I will change into a jinghai cloth skirt and go with you to live a poor life of coarse tea and light rice."
"If you want to enter Beijing to make meritorious contributions, I will pack up my belongings and accompany you, what is treacherous, what wind and waves, I will accompany you to break through."
She gripped his fingertips tightly and slowly transmitted her warmth to him.
"You can't just leave me alone."
Yan Yingzhou looked moved, clenched her soft hand with her backhand, and frowned: "That's a road of no return." β
"Are there you?"
"Yes."
Ruan Si smiled freely and said, "Okay, I'll go with you." β
With her smile, the gloom and hesitation in Yan Yingzhou's eyes all dissipated.
Even if there is no light ahead, the two of them are open flames to each other, so what's the matter?
"Song Yanzhi, who was originally the imperial history of the imperial court, was a protΓ©gΓ© of Mrs. Pei, but was later convicted of words and sent to prison."
If this is the case, it has nothing to do with Yan Mu.
"But he mysteriously disappeared in the prison, and no one knows how he escaped."
Yan Yingzhou's expression tightened, and he said: "This matter was covered very tightly, and he never leaked any news to the outside world, and only ordered his father to arrest him secretly." β
"That. This fugitive," Ruan Si said stunned, "and how did he get involved with the Broken Intestine Man?" β
Yan Yingzhou shook his head slightly.
"My mother said on her deathbed that my father's real mission is to arrest Song Yanzhi, but I don't know why the person who was escorted back was a heartbroken man."
Ruan Si felt his fingertips stiffen a little, so he lowered his head and rubbed his fingertips gently.
After a long time, his fingertips unfolded again.
Yan Yingzhou said in a low voice: "After my father returned to Beijing, I never saw him again. β
"What?"
"He was held in a prison cell, and it was only said that he would be interrogated in isolation."
His expression was cold, and the air in the room seemed to suddenly become cold.
Ruan Si looked at him worriedly, he never showed the slightest coldness in front of her.
But now, his eyes seemed to freeze.
"Within half a month, my father died violently in prison."
He paused, and the last few words were mixed with monstrous anger, "I said that I was too injured and died." β
The deepest secret in Yan Yingzhou's heart finally came to light.
Ruan Si understood that the Broken Intestine Man replaced Song Yanzhi and was sent to prison by Yan Mu himself, which must be closely related to the later events.
Therefore, Yan Yingzhou chose to start with the broken intestine man, follow the vine, and find out the truth about Yan Mu's unjust death in prison.
"Jojo ......"
If she wanted to stop him from continuing in the dark, maybe he would hesitate and be disappointed, but he would also be glad to let go of her hand.
Ruan Si didn't say a word, held his hand, and leaned softly on him.
Yan Yingzhou sighed and took her into his arms.
"Therefore, when I was very young, I swore that I would never inherit the mantle of my father and grandfather in this life, and I would never be a fast catcher for even a day."
Ruan Si was slightly startled in his heart, and then felt a little distressed about him.
"I made up my mind to be a prison guard for the rest of my life."
"I will be in charge of the prison, and I will make all the prisoners fear me, and let them know that no one can escape from me."
With that, he chuckled lowly.
"Jojo, you have to pay for your mistakes, right?"
Ruan Si pillowed on his shoulder and replied "yes".
Yan Yingzhou hugged the woman in his arms, his chin lightly pressed against her forehead, rubbing it intentionally or unintentionally.
He had nothing to hide from her anymore.
The two souls seem to have merged together today, and they have lived and died together for the rest of their lives.
Ruan Si clasped his hand, listened to his powerful heartbeat, and made up his mind to help him find out the truth.
Whether he is Dingbo Hou Yan Yingzhou or Leng Yan Yan Yingzhou, he is her husband, and he is her life.
The two snuggled intimately, and neither of them would open their mouths first to break the silence of the moment.
Until Dou Yiming recklessly broke into the backyard.
"Boss! Yes...... I ......"
His cheeks flushed, and he looked overwhelmed, and stumbled back a few steps.
Yan Yingzhou's eyelids lifted slightly, and the wind swept across his embarrassed face.
"What's wrong?"
Dou Yiming sneered: "No, nothing, you go on, don't pay attention to me, just treat me as a pumpkin ......"
"Beans!" Ruan Si couldn't help but laugh and said, "Say it, I'll go find Jin Ling'er and them." β
With that, she quickly sat up from Yan Yingzhou's arms, dusted off her skirt and left quickly.
"Say."
"Boss, it's Mrs. Pei's side."
Yan Yingzhou's heart sank slightly, but he still asked indifferently, "What's wrong with him?" β
Dou Yiming muttered: "Old Master Pei has already returned to Pei's house, but he has been closed for the past few days, and even Master Xiao Su has eaten the closed door." β
"Lord Xiao Su?"
Yan Yingzhou was quite surprised, what did he do in Pei's Mansion?
Dou Yiming said speechlessly: "Lord Xiao Su has to track down the matter of not leaving the Buddha, no one can resist him, he has been going to Pei's house every day these days." β
"But Mrs. Pei said that he was sick, so he only ordered someone to come out and send him away."
"Lord Xiao Su stood at the door for most of the day, and several times Yanxin forcibly helped him back."
Yan Yingzhou's expression was cold, but there seemed to be a trace of wind and waves in his eyes.
"Beans, prepare a post."
He was going to meet Mrs. Pei in person.
