Chapter 180: A second before the truth

I stood in front of the palace gate, quietly waiting......

In my memory, I was always waiting, like a spider waiting for its prey, laying its web, and then slowly waiting for the prey to enter, slowly destroying the enemies in my path......

And it never seemed point---a-long, I was always waiting for a predestined ending, one that I had made with my own hands, that was completely certain. And then weep and grieve over this ending - I don't know if it's pathetic for my opponent or tired of the brutal killing game that has to be played.

But one thing is for sure, this waiting has cost me all my experience and youth. I looked up to the sky and laughed - haha, how old do I look? Sixteen years old, but he has a state of mind that no sixty-year-old person has, a heart that is tired of killing, but can't stop killing......

"Concubine De is already here, Fourth Brother, he will definitely be fine." Seventeen followed and comforted me.

"Yinli, will you be like the Thirteenth Elder Brother and think that this matter is related to me." It's more than that, it's my masterpiece.

"Qiyun, what do you want me to say......" Brother Seventeen looked at my face, and he didn't know whether to tell me the truth or not.

"You don't have to say it." I know it all - emotionally, you definitely don't want to believe that this is all my plan, but intellectually, you are so clever that you can certainly see that I must have something to do with it.

Seventeenth brother, I know you don't want to lie to me, so I was willful and forced you to say such unspeakable things. But I'm really afraid to hear what you think of me!

"Yinli, are you afraid?" I turned around and smiled sadly: "Fourth elder brother can't never know the answer, paper can't contain fire, once it is exposed, all my fate is self-inflicted, but you can also be involved by me, are you afraid?" "Even if Concubine De has rushed over now, the suffering of the fourth elder brother can be regarded as enough-and in the future, all the pain and shame he suffered today will be counted on my head, I am afraid, it is not just killing me to relieve the hatred.

"Qiyun, nothing you do is a burden to me." The seventeenth elder brother habitually hugged me and wanted to give me strength: "We are husband and wife, and we are supposed to share blessings and misfortunes." Besides, Qiyun, if I could, I would go to hell for you. "In exchange for the next life you can live simply and purely, you can not have so many doubts and burdens, and you can be happy until you are old......

"I want to meet the fourth elder brother." I said unconsciously.

I felt ridiculous after saying it, even if the fourth elder brother was saved by Concubine De and would not be killed, he would still be locked up. How easy it is to meet him now!

"I'll go and beg the thirteenth brother for you, he will definitely have a way!" Seventeen immediately suggested.

"Forget it, you better not get involved in our business." Seventeenth Elder Brother, I'm not deliberately leaving you alone - rather, my grievances with Thirteenth Elder Brother can only be solved by myself: "I will go to him myself tomorrow." ”

Now that I have made many enemies, I must not have more thirteen elder brothers, so as long as there is a one-in-10,000 chance to recover, I will go. Even if I have to lose all my face, I will not hesitate to do it!

Chengde. The residence of the thirteenth elder brother

"Third brother, fourth elder brother - how is my brother-in-law?" I don't mean to emphasize the word brother-in-law, but my brother-in-law represents the intimate relationship between the fourth elder brother and me - it means that I should not have any motive to harm him, to harm someone who only benefits me and does not harm.

"Do you really care?"

"If I don't care, I won't ask Concubine De to intercede." What I want is to prevent the Nian clan from entering the door at this moment, not the life of the fourth elder brother.

"Really? Do you dare to swear to God that you really don't have the slightest connection with this? ”

“……”

"What's the matter, don't you dare?"

"Third brother, it's not that I don't have the courage to deceive God." I am a person who has been educated in materialism since childhood, how can I not even have the courage to make an oath? It's just: "Third brother, I don't want to deceive you, I don't want to deceive you, because I really can't get out of this matter." "It's better to admit things that can't get out of the relationship, but it will make people think that you have a last resort.

"Are you really willing to admit it?" The eyes of the thirteenth elder brother were full of disbelief.

Didn't you keep forcing me to admit it? Now that I'll admit it, why don't you seem to accept it? "I hope I don't have to deceive my third brother in my life."

"Qiyun, I hate you!"

"Thanks, you didn't say you wanted to kill me." I smiled wryly: "I am indeed hateful, and I think so myself. ”

"I hate you, not because you did this, but because you actually treated the fourth brother like this!"

"I knew you'd say that." I was suddenly very jealous, I really didn't understand what benefits Yinzhen gave to the thirteenth elder brother, so that he was so desperate for him - so desperate that he could even abandon the relationship between us, so desperate that he could be thousands of miles away for his fourth brother. This jealousy gave me the urge to irritate the Thirteenth Elder Brother: "What if I say that my decision has never changed?" Even now, I don't regret what I did. ”

"You!" The thirteenth elder brother raised his hand and wanted to slap me directly, but stopped when it was less than a centimeter away from my face: "Tell you, it's not that I don't want to hit you, the reason why I will stand here and reason with you is because of the fourth brother, you know - you know his ......"

I closed my eyes, I would rather be slapped than listen to his so-called truth—I knew that everything today was beyond my means. I don't know anything and don't want to know!

"Forget it, it's a waste of my saliva to tell you unconscionable person about this!"

When I heard him say this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief, and went back to the purpose of my trip: "So, third brother, I want to see how the fourth elder brother is—how is he, is it okay?" "I know that it is indeed a bit difficult for a strong person to make this request at this moment, but I don't know what the fourth elder brother thinks in his heart now, I will have trouble sleeping.

"Do you really want to see him?" The thirteenth elder brother sneered and glanced at me: "Or is it because of your ridiculous guilt?" Or are you still not at ease and want to try and temptation? ”

"I-" The embarrassment of being seen through my mind made me almost speechless.

"You don't need me or mine, don't worry, the fourth brother doesn't mean to blame you at all." The thirteenth elder brother spoke in a somewhat strange tone: "So you don't have to bother anymore, you can go back to sleep with your peace of mind." ”

Third brother...... "Am I really as unbearable as you say?"

"Because the last thing the fourth brother said to me when he fainted today was - it's not about Qiyun, I haven't seen her at all today." The thirteenth elder brother glared at me fiercely, but he couldn't help but burst into tears: "He waited for me to come over, but just to say a word, he was afraid that I would go back to you to settle accounts, what else can I say?" I'm not going to do anything to you today, it's not for the sake of our past feelings, I'm for the fourth brother, I don't want him to be sad......"

It's none of Qiyun's business, I haven't seen her at all today......

Fourth Brother, are you using this sentence to punish me? Punish my conscience has already been eaten by myself?

"Niu Co Lu. Qiyun, you're really stupid! Why are you going to admit it again today? Can't you just be a little bad, a little mean, and just deny it? Not wanting me to see his tears, the thirteenth elder brother looked up at the ceiling: "Let me really lie to myself that you are innocent, and lie to myself that the fourth brother did not defend the wrong person!" Why do you dare to tell the truth, you say! ”

It's none of Qiyun's business, I haven't seen her at all today......

My soul has been imprisoned in this sentence, and I don't even have a chance to regret my impulsiveness - it doesn't matter if it's true or false, it's important to make mistakes again and again, mistakes after mistakes, and still making mistakes......

"Niu Co Lu. Qiyun, let me ask you one more question, when you heard this, did you do what you did at that time? ”

What's the matter, my kind thirteenth elder brother, do you still have hope for me, hoping that I can change my ways and change my past wrongs?

What kind of feelings are you still having delusions about me?

"I've regretted it for a long time, but I can't stop myself from doing it......"

Thirteenth elder brother, sometimes, not wanting to do it and not being able to do it are fundamentally different things.

I regret it very much, and what I regret most of all is that I have embarked on this path, a path that I will regret for the rest of my life......
