Chapter 34: Kneeling in chains all night
At this time, the ancestral hall was unusually quiet, and there were no others, only Qin Rusu and Qin Min.
The wind blew, and there was a whimper, not to mention the two girls' houses, even the two rough men were here, and they were also full of goosebumps.
But Qin Rusu's fluttering words seemed to have regained the initiative.
In front of the old lady, Qin Min's words were like a thorn in Qin Rusu's heart.
It seems to be insignificant, but in fact it is the most stormy.
"Then my sister congratulates my sister. No, I should change my name to Princess Niangniang. ”
Qin Min had a faint smile on his face, cold at the corner of his mouth.
Her hand hidden in her sleeve clenched tightly, and the gloom in her eyes flashed.
"It's good that my sister knows." Instead of kneeling, Qin Rusu sat on the steps.
Qin Min turned around and left.
She walked through the long hallway, a ball of fire rising in her chest.
Finally, the weak little hands beat the cold stones.
She couldn't get angry.
Why can Qin Rusu be the concubine of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, why does everyone like her, why can even the unapproachable virtuous king put down his shelf and marry a woman who has such a bad reputation and caused such an incident.
She hated Qin Rusu, and for so many years, she thought that she was pressed under Qin Rusu.
No matter how good she is, no one will see her.
is because she is not the concubine of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, even if she is beautiful and has the demeanor of everyone's ladies, it is useless.
Now the emperor has given marriage to King Xian.
Qin Rusu can become a princess without doing anything, so what about her?
What should Qin Min do?
In the darkness, her eyes rippled.
A faint hatred ignited.
Just when she didn't notice it, there was footsteps in front of her.
Before she could wipe the tears from her cheeks, she was more than blocked.
"Brother, big brother......"
Qin Min shouted cautiously, his voice trembling a little.
Qin Wei smiled, reached out and touched her head, just like when she was a child.
"Min'er, let's go, big brother will take you to a place."
"No...... Don't ......"
Qin Min's footsteps subconsciously retreated, she didn't expect to meet her eldest brother at this time.
She panicked.
"Don't like big brother anymore?" Qin Wei said with a smile, and his voice was also soft.
"Big Brother ......"
Qin Wei didn't care how Qin Min struggled, and directly dragged her into a small dark room.
It's usually stuffed with groceries, and it's messy and dirty.
"Get on your knees!"
Qin Wei stood at the door, still smiling when he spoke to Qin Min.
It seems to be laughing, but there is no trace of a smile in his eyes, and the cold air on his body is revealed.
Qin Min knelt on the ground with a 'plop'.
Faced with a mess of things, his eyes were hazy with tears, and it seemed that in the blink of an eye, tears would fall.
"When Rusu lifts the ban, Min'er will be able to stand up."
Qin Wei looked at her at the door, her voice was still as soft as usual, if it weren't for the cool smile on the corner of her mouth, she seemed to be a gentle big brother.
However, what Qin Min was most afraid of was this big brother.
This has been the case since childhood.
She likes to be near him, but she is afraid of him.
The grievances in her heart swelled up, but she didn't dare to stand up.
"Why, why did Big Brother do this to me!"
Qin Wei is not Qin Rusu's eldest brother Qin, but the eldest son of the entire Qin family, Qin Rusu's father passed over without a son.
She is Qin Wei's half-sister of the same father and mother.
Why would Qin Wei treat her like this!
"If Su Ke has hurt you, then why do you want to do this to her?"
Qin Min gritted his teeth and did not answer.
"When you blow the wind in your ears in front of the old lady three times or twice, you should think about what I will do to you, Min'er, is it because you have been too lenient with you since you were a child, or are the past ones not enough for you to remember?"
Qin Min's tears flowed, and his whole face was spent.
Her heart would break whenever she remembered the past.
Qin Min remembered that when she was nine years old, she deliberately burned the back of Qin Rusu's hand.
As a result, that night, Qin Wei directly took boiling water and burned Qin Min's arm with a scar.
Women are very concerned about whether there are scars on their bodies.
But Qin Wei was so ruthless to Qin Min.
When she was a child, she hated Qin Rusu more and more.
But even so, she didn't dare to do anything to Qin Rusu.
She has rectified Qin Rusu several times, and every time she ends up being worse than Qin Rusu.
The resentment in Qin Min's heart deepened.
"I'm your own sister, brother, you don't like me so much, you have to dispose of me to death, is it only when I die, will you be happy, will you think of my own sister?"
This sentence contains all kinds of grievances and unwillingness, as well as strong hatred.
"If you weren't my sister, believe it or not, I'd have killed you with a knife!"
"You have protected Qin Rusu to such an extent, you can't wait to kill me?"
All the dignity of Qin Min's weekdays has disappeared.
Her hair was messy, and her clothes were a mess by herself.
Standing up on the ground little by little, she resisted the words of her eldest brother in front of her for the first time.
"Big brother, you tell Min'er."
When Qin Min was about to stand up, Qin Wei kicked directly on her knee without hesitation.
'Plop'.
Qin Min collapsed directly to the ground again.
"If Su has not had the love of his mother in the mansion since he was a child, he is obviously Miss Yan, and you are inferior everywhere, what else does Min'er want, if she wants to be Miss Yan of the Qin family, can she marry King Xian?"
"She can, why can't I."
The crunch of 'pop'.
It's especially loud in the dark of night.
"Then do you still know how you survived in Qin Mansion!"
If it weren't for Qin En, Qin Min and Qin Wei wouldn't have survived.
Rusu's mother was indirectly killed by her own mother.
This life is pressed down from the burden of the mother, and no one can escape!
If it weren't for the death of the eldest aunt, Rusu would still be fine now, more carefree than before, and she would have a complete home.
Such a simple truth, Qin Wei told Qin Min when she was a child, but she didn't listen to it at all, but became more and more presumptuous.
If she was next to her, she would dare to hurt Rusu like this.
I'm afraid I won't be able to live now!
Qin Min suddenly stopped crying, only a brief sob.
Her back is straight, and even if she kneels now, she is stubborn.
"I heard that you made Rusu kneel on the chain?"
Qin Min's face suddenly turned pale.
The sound of chains sounded behind him.
"Rusu's iron chain, I let people withdraw, as for yours, Min'er's brother will guard you all night."
He affectionately picked up Qin Min's body, and put the iron chain under her knee with his big hand.
Then finish this series of movements and sit down on the steps of the doorway.
Not a word was spoken.
Qin Min has a ruthless heart since he was a child.
But over the years, he has also been an incompetent brother.
Qin Wei lifted his sleeves, and the scars on them were vivid.
This was scalded by himself with boiling water after Qin Min was injured.
It hurts so much.
How did Qin Min endure a girl?
He wanted her to have a long memory.
But in exchange for her inexhaustible scheming.
Could it be that the Qin family will eventually come to the point of cannibalism?
Late at night.
Qin Rusu knelt on the ground, naturally there was no kneeling chain, it was on the mat.
She pinched the tip of her nose, it was so dark, she thought it was okay.
"Would you like a drink?"
Qin Rusu turned his head and saw that it was his brother Qin Wei.
Her eyes couldn't help but heat, "When did you like to drink?" ”
"Do you want to!"
"Since you brought it all here, I can only sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman."
At this moment, Qin Wei's eyes were shining, and Qin Rusu seemed to have an extra layer of guilt.
"Brother, I have something to tell you, maybe the emperor hasn't announced it to the world yet, but I think the holy decree will come down tomorrow morning."
"Is it King Xian's marriage to you?"
Qin Wei sounded, his voice was a little vicissitudes, and it must be a little strange from the usual Qin Wei.
"Do you really like King Xian?"
Qin Rusu drank the wine in his hand and replied to his question with a smile, "It seems that many people know that I like King Xian, brother, you didn't know it on the first day." ”
"What about Li Younan, ...... you" Sensing Qin Rusu's unknown gaze, Qin Wei had no choice but to shift his gaze and speak in a low voice; Didn't you like Li Younan before, but now you don't? ”
"He's almost forgotten about it."
Qin Rusu said, and directly raised his head and took a big sip of wine.
Spicy taste.
From the throat to the stomach.
She doesn't like to drink, and tonight, it was an exception.
I just suddenly wanted to drink.
Probably, from now on, she will say goodbye to before.
"Rusu ......" Qin Wei was a little weird, and his voice was very low and hoarse.
"Brother, are you blown by the wind, why does your voice sound weird?"
As he spoke, Qin Rusu stepped forward.
The curled eyelashes were close to Qin Wei, and with a slight sweep, they could reach his cheeks.
Her warm breath gently sprayed on Qin Wei's cheeks, hot and with a fragrance.
Qin Wei turned his head directly, took a full sip of the wine glass, and drank directly.
"Rusu, can you tell me why?" Qin Wei looked over with a little sadness, "Tell me why you forgot Li Younan."
"He lost me!"
Qin Rusu smiled indifferently.
Maybe I drank a few sips of wine, and the strength of the wine was already up.
"I waited for him for so long, waiting for the news of his marriage to someone else, I followed him for five years, and endured all the hardships for him, I love someone so much, in the end he wants to marry my cousin, tell me that my previous efforts are all wrong, but I am deceiving myself, Li Younan has always been a snake that can't be hot."
Qin Wei's face was not quite right, but he couldn't express it.
I could only take a few sips of wine in a muffled voice.
I see.
It turned out that Rusu was also reborn.
No wonder she has rejected herself again and again.
"However, it's all in the past, I don't blame him, but I won't like him either."
Qin Rusu stood up, because her legs were weak, she almost fell, she walked a few steps before she stabilized.
"Why don't you like it, since the love is so deep, how can it be so easy to change your mind?"
Qin Wei continued to ask.
Qin Rusu looked back at him, squinted his eyes, and smiled even more wantonly, "Brother, at first glance, you know that you have never been in love, the affairs of the two people are uncertain, you, as a bystander, feel that the previous things have nothing to do, but you are not me, and you have not experienced those terrible experiences, I don't want to be alone anymore, I want to live well in the Hou Mansion in this life." ”
As for the rest, what is the matter with Guan Qin Rusu?
"What if Li Younan still loves you? Rusu, will you give him a chance to start over? ”
"Li Younan is actually doing the right thing, he just doesn't love me, what did he do wrong?"
In fact, Qin Rusu has seen it very thoroughly recently.
In her previous life, from the beginning to the nearest, Qin Rusu followed Li Younan by herself, and she didn't ask Li Younan if she liked to follow her.
It's always been her wishful thinking!
Therefore, Qin Rusu hated him, but he was unbalanced in his heart.
She is selfish.
If you think that you have given a lot of things, then the other party must also pay for yourself.
In fact, this is originally a kind of sick mind.
Li Younan doesn't love himself, that is, he doesn't love.
She couldn't wait for anyone, it was because she was willing to wait, and no one stopped her.
Whether it comes or not is another person's decision.
Qin Rusu lived with low self-esteem in his previous life, and he almost had no self.
In this life, she didn't want to do this.
"Rusu, Li Younan likes you."
Qin Wei's eyes were shining, as if there was something, without any obstruction, and it appeared under the moonlight.
When I looked closer, I realized that it was tears.
"Like me or not, I don't know, but I've been dreaming of some strange things lately, as if I dreamed that Li Younan was crying holding my corpse, and I also seemed to see Li Younan touching my tombstone, his expression was so sad, I hadn't seen him like that, it was very strange, but I didn't feel it at all in my heart. This is probably not love. ”
This is a phantom.
It must be the role of Qin Rusu's heart.
"If Li Younan appeared in front of you and told you the reason, would you forgive him?"
Qin Rusu sat on the steps.
She buried her head in her knees.
I don't know how to answer, and I don't know how to answer.
After a while, the sound of Qin Rusu breathing evenly came out.
Qin Wei took off the cloak on his body and draped it on Qin Rusu's shoulders.
"Wait for me!"
Rusu is waiting for me!
I will give you a peaceful home.
'Qin Wei' carried Qin Rusu back into the house and let her sleep on the mat in the house.
In the middle of the night, he took the last sip of wine and went straight over the wall.
The people outside the walls apparently waited a long time.
"Childe, the matter has been settled."
"Okay, has the letter been delivered to King Xian's mansion?" 'Qin Wei' tore off the mask on his face, revealing his original face.
"It's delivered, I think King Xian has seen it at this time."
Li Younan looked at Ma Dao: "Throw this person into King Xian's mansion as well, and the evidence in your hand, tell King Xian that if he agrees to the request in the letter, I will help him!" ”
"Childe, will King Xian agree?"
"There's no man who doesn't like power, and since I can expect him to do so, I can't be wrong."
The man was suspicious, but he didn't dare to disobey Li Younan's words.
Honestly lead people to the back door of the Xian Wang's Mansion.
After dropping it, he said according to Li Younan's words.
I just didn't get a reply.
Just when he was staring impatiently, King Xian walked out and walked all the way to Li Younan.
"Li Gongzi has returned to Beijing?"
"King Xian, the Ming people don't say dark words, as long as King Xian says a word, you can smear King Xian's liver and brain, and die for yourself."
Li Younan made a move.
Gu Yu said the next sentence, but turned the whole situation upside down, "Why do you think that this king will have to be you?" ”
"King Xian is not a loss!"
Li Younan is too conceited and too confident.
"This person, this king is not so cowardly that he needs to exchange for a woman, this king wants a beautiful woman, Li Gongzi, please go back!"
When he came out, he personally told Li Younan that Rusu was not something that could be exchanged at will.
She is a person and has a consciousness of her own.
Even if it was a choice, it was Qin Rusu who chose them.
Instead of being pushed around like it is now.
Even if Qin Rusu would choose Li Younan, Gu Yu would definitely not have any complaints.
However, even if Qin Rusu is blind, she will not choose Li Younan.
Just as Li Younan turned around, Gu Yu's cold words sounded in front of him again.
"Please also ask Li Gongzi to stay away from the king's quasi-princess. After all, she is now a person with a marriage contract, and this king doesn't want her to be talked about casually. ”
Li Younan did not respond.
Gu Yu didn't speak, turned around and walked towards the palace.
When he returned to the study, Zhang Yan, who had received the criminal law, was summoned over.
"Zhang Yan, you go check and send a few people to protect Rusu, this king doesn't want Li Younan to get close to her anymore."
"Yes!"
Zhang Yan bent over, and the pain below his back was like tearing.
Painful numbness.
"Let's go down first!"
Although Zhang Yan still told Gu Yu about the letter, he was still beaten by Gu Yu.
However, in the final analysis, this matter is Zhang Yan's own fault.
For his own selfishness, he even disregarded the danger of others.
How could he do such a thing?
When he is well, he will go and personally ask the Lord of Qin County for his guilt.
When I was halfway there, I happened to meet Song Xiang who came out.
He wanted to take a detour.
People like Miss Song were not what they could get or desire.
It's better to dispel the idea as soon as possible.
"Guard Zhang?"
Song Xiang took the lead in calling Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan only pretended that he didn't hear it, the faster the cunning walked, the worse the pain in his back became.
Su Xiang caught up directly along the path and blocked in front of Zhang Yan.
"Guard Zhang!"
"It turned out to be Miss Song, how is Miss Song?"
"Why are you avoiding me?"
Zhang Yan lowered his head and didn't speak, and after a while, he slowly explained: "Miss Song is a girl's family, and I am just a guard beside the prince, so I should keep some distance." ”
"So, you're avoiding me?" Song Xiang's tone was a little aggrieved, and he was a little angry.
"Not really!"
Song Xiang didn't leave in a hurry, tears welled up in his eyes, "I thought that after going through so many times, there was someone who would be good to me and take care of me patiently, I was really happy, but now I find that I just think too much and have been deceiving myself, since Zhang Guards are also like this, then Song Xiang is not reluctant, it is good for you to keep a distance from Song Xiang, and save the filth on Song Xiang's body to stain Zhang Guard's body." ”
She was about to turn around, when she suddenly realized that she still had a medical kit in her hand.
He turned around again and took a breath.
"I heard that you were injured, it's quite serious, this is some herbs I have prepared myself, there are external and internal takes, you take it back and take it to recuperate."
She handed it directly to Zhang Yan's hand.
Tears accidentally hit the back of the man's hand.
It's piping hot.
It seemed to be smashed on Zhang Yan's heart.
looked at Song Xiang's figure disappearing into the night.
Take the medicine box she just sent, and there is still her residual temperature on it.
Zhang Yan couldn't control his heart.
I can't control myself thinking about Song Xiang.
There's a magic that seems to pull at it.
occupied his entire mind.
Finally, his uncontrollable pace caught up.
Grabbing Song Xiang's arm, he asked, "What is filthy breath, someone in the mansion bullied you?" ”
"Guard Zhang, don't do this, let me go first, you hurt me."
Hearing Song Xiang speak, Zhang Yancai controlled himself and let go of Song Xiang's arm.
"I'm sorry!"
He didn't know why he was the way he was.
It will not be searched for its own control.
As a guard, he can't even control his heart, how can he protect the safety of the prince?
"What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, if Miss Song is wronged in the mansion, you can make it clear to the prince, and he will naturally make decisions for you."
"What about you?" Song Xiang stepped forward, "Did Zhang Guard worry about Song Xiang?" ”
Zhang Yan was watched by her and retreated.
until it hits the tree behind it.
But Song Xiang in front of him didn't have the slightest intention of leaving.
After a while, the sound of someone whispering away was heard.
Zhang Yan moved away and said, "Thank you Miss Song for today's medicine box." ”
"Guard Zhang is serious."
"It's not early, Miss Song should go back to the room early."
Song Xiang nodded, with a little shy smile on his face.
Zhang Yan caught up with him and asked those slaves and maids not to talk nonsense about things at will.
He didn't want to hear anything bad about Song Xiang.
But whoever hears it.
He couldn't control his temper.
I want to kill someone!
The night is finally over.
When Qin Rusu woke up, there was a slight tingling sensation in his head.
There is nothing else that is not.
It's been one night.
The old lady's anger also disappeared.
Qin Rusu had a sore back and wanted to go back to his residence to catch up on sleep.
As soon as he went out, he met Qin Wei who was coming towards him.
While greeting: "Brother, you can do it, come to me for a drink without sleeping at night, my head still hurts." ”
"When did I ask you for a drink?" Qin Wei asked with a smile.
It's just that my sister just woke up and was in a daze.
"It's last night, I'm sleepy, I'm not going to tell you yet."
Qin Rusu yawned and patted him on the shoulder.
"I'm going back to my room to catch up on sleep."
"Come back!"
Qin Wei directly grabbed her arm, pulled her in his arms, stepped forward and sniffed, "Drinking?" ”
"Isn't this nonsense, didn't you make me drink?"
Qin Rusu didn't seem to have woken up yet, and his speech was a little unclear.
It was Qin Wei who hugged her back.
By the time Qin Rusu woke up completely, it was already night.
Everybody's having dinner.
The old lady eats alone in the room.
The strange thing is that Qin Min didn't come.
"Qin Min, I don't seem to have seen anyone all day."
Cui'er had no choice but to explain: "The second young lady said that she was unwell, but the slave maid heard that she was locked in a thatched house and knelt in an iron chain all night, and she couldn't stand up if she wanted to. ”
