Chapter 407: The Great Punishment Water Lotus

He Angelica loosened the strip of cloth that Meng Ying tied to her so tightly that she couldn't open her chin to speak, exhaled lightly, and spoke normally with her mouth, and continued to laugh at Meng Ying and said: "The son born by the same father and mother, the difference is really not small, my Meng Xuan is a really hot-blooded man, thinking of his military career of pillowing and invading armor every year, and then thinking about his identity and fame, it is really heartfelt admiration." If a woman has a husband like this, what more can a husband ask for? And the third son, although your qualifications and character are acceptable, but as an uncle, your personality is really annoying, you can't kill the enemy for the country, you can't share the worries of the monarch's father, but you have repeatedly bullied a harmless little woman like me, which is really speechless. ”

The discomfort in her heart was all recruited by Meng Ying, and she naturally understood that the little Jiujiu in Meng Ying's heart was because he couldn't get used to Meng Xuan's indulgence in a woman, and that woman was not a good woman in his eyes. But she is uncomfortable, and she doesn't want to call Meng Ying comfortable, revealing the bad things of scars and poking soft underbelly, who won't do it?

Meng Ying was speechless, sulking secretly in her heart for a while, and suddenly thought of something, "fluttered" and laughed out loud, and snorted coldly: "Cold ice invades the armor? You're embarrassed to mention the armor! Your King Ning is wearing a bronze three-layer armor weighing more than 200 catties, and he sank himself in the Grand Canal, but you have no taboos. He Angelica, if you treat my brother Xuan in the future, you must not be so ruthless and unjust, otherwise the master will expose your affairs and let you receive the Meng family's punishment: Water Lotus. ”

"Water Lotus?" He Angelica smiled, "The name is really poetic enough, but I don't know what its content is." ”

Meng Ying showed a sinister smile on her face, looked He Angelica up and down and said, "Girl, you are a lotus, as for what kind of water is that 'water' and what kind of communication it will have with you, I have to look at it differently." ”

He Angelica's smile faded, and a look of disgust appeared on her face, she didn't like the punishments related to water the most, so she questioned: "With the family background and heritage of the Meng family, your inner house is enough to control the upper and lower levels only by relying on prestige, how can the punishment be several times heavier than that of others?" Doesn't your strictness undermine the creed of our ancestors who were based on benevolence? ”

Meng Ying thought why Angelica was frightened, and further frightened her: "'Prestige' is effective in the long run, but the 'deterrence' brought by punishment can have an immediate effect. Miss He, don't you know, in my family, the woman who ate the water lotus punishment once, no matter how brutal she was in the past, since she was tortured, she was like a starling, and she didn't even dare to come out of the cage. The best part is that once this sentence is taken, you can no longer ......"

"Third son, you are enough!" He Angelica interrupted him coldly, "Don't scare people when the stars are dark in the middle of the night, otherwise the little girl will inevitably do something that is not up or down, and it will collide with your dignity, or say something you don't like to hear." After speaking, she walked out of the water pavilion and wanted to go back to the room to see Meng Xuan.

Meng Ying was bored, and at this time she was still very energetic, how could she let go of this quarrel object, so she chased her back, stiffened her neck and said: "Uncle is sitting upright, there is nothing I can't hear, why don't you run, if you have the ability, you will persuade the master to run again!" What the hell are you doing with that Dongying person? Why does he keep calling you 'Niangniang'! If you don't make it clear, I'll tell Brother Xuan tomorrow! ”

"He can't hear with his ears, and he won't be angry with a little snow owl, third son, go home and quarrel with your mother-in-law, I'm impatient to accompany you, my words have to be left to Meng Xuan." He Angelica had the wind under his feet, and avoided him like a plague, and he chased after him, and she walked on the meadow; He stepped on the grass, and she returned to the gravel path, and walked awkwardly through the atrium with him. When she stepped on the lush grass, she also stepped on the broken body of the woman who had just tripped over Meng Ying, and looked down in surprise.

Meng Ying thought she was frightened, so she hurriedly pulled her sleeve and walked away, she couldn't move, she simply clasped her hands and then used her arms to exert force, like a wooden man, or a washbasin, and moved her away ten steps before putting it down. While pushing her to the other side of the room, he sneered, "The tigress wilted? Turned into a silly cat? Ye is also unwilling to worry about you, otherwise, Ye has at least a hundred ways to treat you...... Hey, wake up, I'm asking you something. It's just, well, your friend's name is Liao Qing'er, she, is she very familiar with you? How long have you known each other? ”

He Angelica stood there for a while, turned around and was still about to look at something in the grass, Meng Ying hurriedly stopped her: "Hey! Are you scared silly? What's there to visit about that! Isn't it just a dead man, don't look at it. ”

As he spoke, he once again carried her away like a basin, and said with disgust in his mouth: "Although I always knew that you were abnormal, you can be normal once in a while, okay?" That's a dead man's corpse, a broken corpse, you're a weak woman, even if you don't faint and fall to the ground in fright, scream, or throw yourself into my arms and cry bitterly, don't you rush over to study it, okay? Not long after I saw that woman died, I heard a monk who had attained enlightenment say that three hours after a person's death, her spirit does not leave her body, which means that there is a ghost of her in the vicinity now! ”

He Angelica, as the basin that was carried away, looked back at Meng Ying and asked, "You can see the scene of that woman being killed?" Do you know who did it? What's going on here today? What about the people in the factory guards? What about the attackers? Where do you belong? Or did you come from a scattered road? ”

"You can, you can, what, what," Meng Ying complained, "Girl, remember your identity, you are a cardamom girl, a concubine of a heroic figure, not a head catcher in the public gate, not the temple of Dali Temple, these questions of yours should not come from your mouth." Hey, you tell me about that little chubby girl Liao Qing'er, and if you tell it well, I'll reward you. He put He Angelica in his hand on the ground, and took out a brocade box inlaid with shiny broken red gold beads from his sleeve, shook it in front of her eyes, teasing a child, and asked with a smile, "The box used on the court, brought with the palace reward, I have two or three in my hand, look at this inlay, look at this frosted beads, how about it, generous enough." ”

He Angelica couldn't help but be annoyed: "Aren't you a saint, don't you like to spread morality and etiquette, there is a dead person, you are still in the mood to play!" ”

Meng Ying was stunned for a moment, and said indifferently: "First, I don't love and attack, that's the style of the Mozi school, I save people to see if it's worth saving, and second, to see if the person is still saved, and now I only see a broken corpse without a head, I'm not a monk, and I can't come if I chant the scriptures excessively, right?" Besides, I have never considered myself a benevolent and righteous gentleman, and the last time I stopped you from dealing with your aunt, it was only because I thought you were a man of manufacture, and I would ...... in time."

"There is a head," He Angelica pointed at his feet, "you stepped on her hair." ”

Meng Ying suddenly felt that he was pricked, screamed strangely, jumped three feet high on the spot, and then jumped back to look back, but found that the empty cobblestone path under his feet did not have any human heads, blood or long hair on the ground at all, he angrily pointed to He Angelica's nose and asked, "What do you mean!" You're happy to scare me, huh? Joking about this kind of thing, are you a woman or not? ”

He Angelica pointed coldly at Meng Ying, and said calmly: "It's not interesting, I just don't think much of your words, Third Prince, you keep saying that the dead 'unsaved' person is like a stone and a stake, but just now, when you thought you stepped on the dead man's head, your first reaction was also to feel pricked." It can be seen that your nature is still above your reason. In that case, why should I inquire about the cause of her death? ”

Meng Ying was frightened by He Angelica once, and was belittled several times, the anger that had accumulated in his heart was so strong that even the "Liao Qing'er Investigation Operation" lost its appeal, and he snorted coldly: "Since Miss He, you have both nature and reason, have brains and compassion, and like to find out the root of strangers' corpses, then, as a 'widow', why don't you first ask your 'husband' Zhu Quan how he died, what was the state of his death, and what are your last words." I know that you are in a hurry to get married, and you don't have time to hold a funeral for him, so the one in your stomach can't wait, but your performance is too chilling. ”

He Angelica calmly asked: "So, may I ask, how did His Royal Highness King Ning die, what was the state of death, and what are your last words?" Third son, do you know the details? If you are not in a hurry, you hope to talk to me, and I will discuss with Meng Xuan when I go back, the eldest son of the Meng family is not a good baby in Beijing, and the scholar travels around the world, how did he 'swim' into Ning Wangfu, and how deep did he 'swim' to the waters, okay? ”

Meng Ying glared at He Angelica fiercely as if she was glaring at a monster, why did she always not open which pot to mention?

"Do you think it's hard to be poked in the underbelly?" He Angelica said coldly, "I see that every time you mention the topic of King Ning, you always unconsciously make a posture with your arms around your chest, revealing a sense of self-isolation and self-protection, so I can't control my own brain, and I can't help but think, King Ning and Meng Ying must have some unusual contact, and it has left an indelible impression on you." The corners of her lips twisted into an unpleasant arc, her voice was extremely tight, and she said, "No one likes to be uncovered by old wounds, you and I are the same, and we are also sympathetic, don't you know 'do unto others what you don't want to do to you'?" If you want your ears to be clean, you have to control your mouth first. ”

Meng Ying hung her head sullenly and thought for a while, but when she looked up, she smiled: "The first time I heard you admit in person that King Ning is your 'old injury', this is really a rare thing, I just fight to make my wounds hurt, I also have to find out how you were injured and to what extent...... Miss He, you probably don't know that in the middle of winter, most of the northwesterly winds blow in the southern areas, but rarely the southeast and south winds, so the Grand Canal is the smoothest time for boats in winter. ”

He Angelica was stunned, what was Meng Ying talking about? What wind is blowing on the canal and what does it have to do with her?

"Of course, you don't know, this time there are three 'enemy forces' and one 'friendly army' around Baisha Villa - from the perspective of Jinyiwei." Meng Ying said eloquently, "Among the enemy army, King Ning's Wu Ying Pavilion, a team of people you know best, they are not here to trouble the people in the Jinyi Guard, but just to find the missing King Ning." The people of a certain force we have gathered, you don't have to think that they are here to save you, they are just finding you by the way, and there is only one person who wants to find you, Brother Xuan, we have another purpose and are entrusted by others to be loyal to others. As for the third group, they are the real enemy of the Jinyiwei, the real merciless killer, if the woman was not killed by them, then she must have been killed by the Jinyiwei's 'friendly army'. ”

"Allies? Friendly forces still kill women indiscriminately? He Angelica raised his eyebrows, "Who are the allies?" "The woman who died was a weak young lady...... Who killed her? She must be in the harmless category.

"The people of Dongchang, Cao Hongrui's subordinates." Meng Ying showed an expression similar to "you know", "But the most exciting part is that everyone in Wu Ying Pavilion found King Ning squatting with his head in the corner outside the villa, and after inspection, it was found that he was doing everything as usual, no damage, and his spirit was fine, but he had been squatting there for a few days, a little sleepy." So they went home, dozens of ships took the waterway from the canal, but there are unforeseen storms in the sky, there has always been only the weather of the northwest wind, and suddenly mixed with the southeast wind and the south wind, and the underwater even rolled up a few undercurrents, the boat next to the king of Ning was still okay, but the boat carrying King Ning turned over to the sky, and King Ning fell into the water. ”

He Angelica listened silently, and said calmly: "A water disaster can't kill him, I'm afraid it's a trick to cheat death." "Zhu Quan also cheated to death twice in his previous life, not to mention ...... She raised her eyes to look at Meng Ying and questioned, "Didn't you say that King Ning was wearing a bronze three-layer armor weighing more than two hundred catties and sank himself in the Grand Canal, and the snow owl also said that King Ning threw himself into the lake and died, no matter how it sounds, it looks like a trick designed and arranged by himself with some ulterior motives." ”
