Qiu Feng was ordered to hurry to find Dongqing.

Li Yuntong sat there thinking about things, and even forgot to drink tea for a while.

No matter what reason Dong Qing came into contact with Ladaimu and didn't tell her, this was already an act of betrayal.

She can directly deal with Dong Qing, but after all, the master and servant have been doing so many years, and Dong Qing is also quite dedicated on weekdays, Li Yuntong still wants to ask what is going on in person.

Xia Yu looked at her face, hesitated for a moment and asked, "...... Does Zanmon think that Dongqing may not be good for you? But why do you say she? From your palace maid to your aunt, there is no shortage of food or clothing, can she do it? Could it be that someone is threatening her? What are Zanmon's plans? ”

Li Yuntong knew that Xia Yu was worried that something would happen to Dongqing, and he was afraid that Li Yuntong would deal with it in anger, so he pleaded euphemistically.

She would love to see the few people around her watching over each other, but it was just Dongqing's business...... She didn't know what it was like until she saw her.

Li Yuntong said lightly: "You don't have to worry about her, I just asked her to ask a few words." ”

Xia Yu wanted to say something, but Chuncao tugged at her sleeve and motioned for her to shut up.

When Qiu Feng brought Dong Qing in, it didn't seem to be any different from usual, and Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

After Dong Qing saluted, he asked with a smile: "I don't know what happened to Zanmeng's slave and maid?" ”

Li Yuntong didn't go around the bend with her, and asked directly: "Someone saw that you had private contact with Master Ladaimu, what's the matter?" ”

Dong Qing glanced at her in surprise, lowered her eyes and said, "The slave maid has a matter that needs the help of Master Ladaimu, so I have seen him twice. ”

"Oh, only twice? I don't know what to do, you must go to him for help, don't even ask me here, are you sure I can't do it? Li Yuntong looked at Dong Qing and asked.

Ladaimu is a talisman master in the Bon religion, Dongqing and Li Yuntong are studying Buddhism on weekdays, she can't go to ask for the scriptures in the Bon method, she can only turn to Ladaimu's spells, and Li Yuntong is also quite accomplished in this area, Dongqing asked outsiders for help without asking her, which is indeed very suspicious.

Even Xia Yu, who had helped Dong Qing speak before, looked at her with disapproval.

Dong Qing was speechless, hanging her head and not speaking.

Li Yuntong sneered, "It seems that you have made up your mind not to speak?" In this case, let people call her brother over and ask why Dong Qing returned to the palace half an hour late that day, and he didn't report according to the rules? Such dereliction of duty, I think it seems like a military stick, right? ”

Qiu Feng responded in a muffled voice, "Ten beatings of military sticks, and a two-month fine." ”

Li Yuntong looked at Dong Qing with a smile, "Someone only got the money a few days ago, I'm afraid I won't care about the fine, so I will change the two months' worth to ten military sticks." ”

This is the meaning of beating Dong Qing's younger brother with twenty military sticks.

Dong Qing hurriedly said: "The slave's younger brother was not on duty that day, and the guard who let me in was also entangled by the slave and maid, so please Zanmeng will punish the slave and the maid alone." ”

"You're righteous. However, rules are rules, and in the army, if the subordinates make mistakes, they will also be punished - I remember, your brother is a captain. Li Yuntong looked at Dong Qing and said lightly, but everyone understood that what she meant by this was that the twenty military sticks had to be beaten.

Back then, in order to let the people who followed Li Yuntong to Tubo take root in Biansai, they basically followed the family, Dongqing's younger brother entered Li Yuntong's escort team, and he was still a squad leader.

But the big or small thing, the key depends on how the superior disposes of it, and now that Li Yuntong wants to pursue it like this, Dongqing suddenly understands that her younger brother is using her brother to force her to tell the truth.

She rushed forward and knelt at Li Yuntong's feet, "It's not about the slave and maid's brother, if Zanmeng wants to fight, just beat the slave and maid." ”

"You will also be punished, he will also be punished, you will be punished for returning late, lying to your master, he will be punished for dereliction of duty, two different things." Li Yuntong didn't look at Dong Qing, and raised his voice slightly, "Qiu Feng, when his younger brother comes over, he will be beaten in this courtyard, let everyone else see, and he will end up doing things without care." ”

Dong Qing's face turned pale and she stood up suddenly.

In her hand, she held a golden hairpin inlaid with sapphires at some point, and the pointed end was facing Li Yuntong.

Xia Yu and Chuncao hurriedly stepped forward, but they were half a step too slow, and the golden hairpin was already piercing Li Yuntong's neck.

But Dongqing didn't stab it, she just compared Li Yuntong with a golden hairpin and said: "Zanmeng, the slave knows that this is not good for you, but the slave and the maid are also a last resort, and I hope you will spare the slave and the slave's younger brother for the sake of the slave and the maid's dedication in the past." ”

The golden hairpin was in her hand for a while, to the left and to the right, far and near, as if someone was fighting and fighting with her.

Dong Qing suddenly backhanded the tip of the golden hairpin into his throat.

This thorn was obviously with all his strength, and the stab was very deep, and the blood suddenly gushed out.

Dongqing fell to the ground.

Xia Yu stepped forward and hugged her in two steps, bursting into tears.

"Why are you so stupid, why? You know that Zanmon's question is for you, just thinking of the old love, and let you live, even if you have any troubles, you can also tell us, and we can help find a way together......"

"He's higher than Zammon's spells, I can't help it. Zanmon, I beg your pardon, slave...... ...... maid" Dongqing's eyes looked at Li Yuntong, her hand was slightly upward and wanted to be raised, but finally hung down weakly.

She looked at Li Yuntong's eyes, which had become dull.

After the people below carried away Dongqing's body and cleaned up the blood stains in the hall, Li Yuntong still sat there in a daze.

"Zanmon, should we send someone to arrest Radaimu?" Qiu Feng asked in a low voice.

The people around him all have amulets, and in this way, Dongqing is still controlled by Ladaimu, and it is obvious that the other party is very powerful.

Li Yuntong shook his head, "My spells are not as good as his, it's good to send someone to catch him and follow him obediently, otherwise it will be in vain, even Dongqing is on the road, and he can't act rashly." ”

"Just now, the slave maid took a closer look at the golden hairpin, which was brought back from outside by Dongqing that day. The hairpin is hollow, and there is something in it, and the color of the blood flowing out of Dongqing is also a little wrong, as if it has been poisoned. The slave has already asked people to scrutinize. ”

Looking at Li Yuntong, who was sitting there silent, Qiu Feng whispered again, "I heard them say just now, Dong Qing almost stabbed the golden hairpin on you before?" It's the slaves and maids who are careless, and they shouldn't just be left to wait in front of Xia Yu. ”

Saying that, she couldn't help but be afraid, Dongqing's martial arts were much higher than those of Chuncao and Xia Yu, and she shouldn't have forgotten this one because she was worried that Dongqing's younger brother would resist.

Nothing is more important than the safety of Zammon.

Li Yuntong was asked by Qiu Feng and remembered the situation at that time.

After thinking about it, she sighed and said: "According to the situation at the time, Dong Qing held the golden hairpin, maybe it was the other party who asked her to stab me to death, but she didn't do that, but ......"

She couldn't say any more, and it took a while to regain her composure, "If Dongqing really had to be their person, she would have had a chance to stab me to death just now...... It seems that she does have unbearable suffering, I should believe her, I killed her! ”

Li Yuntong blamed himself very much.

"In that case, who can believe her? And even if you believe her, there is no way back for her. As a pawn, as long as it is exposed, there can be no way to live. Qiu Feng calmly comforted Li Yuntong.

Li Yuntong also knows this truth, but she has been a master and servant for many years, and Dongqing is also a dedicated person on weekdays, but she died suddenly, and died in front of her, she was full of blood when she opened and closed her eyes......

How exactly do they control Dongqing?

Li Yuntong closed his eyes slightly, his fingers clenched together, trying to expel the scene just now from his mind.

After a long time, she opened her eyes and said softly: "Don't move over there, there are other people arranged, wait until you get back." Dong Qing's younger brother, you go and tell me the reason for the matter, find someone to take good care of him, and wait for him to stabilize his mood and see if he can inquire about something. There is also a winter sunshine...... Tell her parents to take it back, give her more silver, and bury it properly! ”

Because of Dongqing's incident, Li Yuntong didn't even eat that night, but let people keep warming the wine and drank a lot.

Due to her lack of energy, she bathed and changed clothes very early, but she couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so she simply sat up in her clothes.

From Dongqing's death, she thought of her own child who was lost before she landed, and then thought of the years she had left Chang'an...... The more she thinks about sad things, the more sad she feels, she has always been very vigorous, and there is really a moment of pessimism and despair that she doesn't want to live, and she feels so tired that she can't even lift her fingers.

When Songtsen Gampo rushed over when he heard the news, he happened to see her stunned and listless.

He felt her weariness, that sadness and despair, and it was not the first time he had seen her, for when he had just come back from Yangtong, she had been like this, as if she had shut herself up in a shell, and did not want to pay attention to anything.

A person who was waiting with her died, she shouldn't be like this, come to think of it, she thought of something.

His gaze fell on Li Yuntong's face for a long time, she still looked as delicate and beautiful as a flower, but the look in her eyes seemed to be twilight, as if she had seen through the world, and she was tired of the world, and she wanted to give up everything at any time and leave.

Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but panic a little in his heart.

His heart tightened, but his face did not move, so he only poured a bowl of light honey water and handed it to Li Yuntong with his own hands.

He drank a few sips of honey water with his hand, and the sweet and warm taste went down, and Li Yuntong felt relieved by two points.

The will to die in my mind has dissipated a lot.

Seeing that she gradually turned around, her eyes moved again, and Songtsen Gampo's heart relaxed a little.

Li Yuntong came back to his senses and looked at him all the time, then frowned and asked, "Zampu doesn't go to serve Musa, what are you doing here?" ”

"I heard that you drank a lot of alcohol, and I was afraid that you would go crazy, so I was a little worried."
