Chapter 66: The night is deep and terrifying
"You say...... What the? Yun Ci's voice tightened, and his words were already a little hoarse. She actually wants to go with Yun Feng?
"The slave just wants to leave the Cloud Mansion now, if you still have a trace of ...... The old love, let the slave and maid leave. It is not suitable for me to leave this filthy identity any longer, and it has defiled you. Izumi had spoken calmly without the slightest resentment.
"You hate me so much? Don't hesitate to spoil yourself? The last rays of twilight flickered at the end of the sentence, and the sudden darkness of the night came and was suffocatingly dark.
Izuku looked up at the sky, and there was a dead silence in her heart: "No, I don't hate." It's too uncomfortable to hate someone, and besides, I hid my identity from you first...... I did it wrong first. ”
"So in order to leave me and leave Yunfu, are you willing to commit to Yunfeng?" Yun Ci's questioning carried a slight mockery: "Don't forget, Yun Feng, like his uncle, is a slave of the Yun family, and he has been like this for generations. ”
"What else is the word 'commitment' mentioned today?" Izumi only thought it was funny: "Steward Yun asked for marriage twice, I'm afraid it's also sincere." It is my blessing that he does not dislike my body, whether it is a wife or a concubine...... It's better than being a laundry lady in this laundry and being ridiculed. ”
Indulge in a fling at...... It seems that she is not doing well. But this ending was too far from what Yun Ci expected, he thought that Izuku would be more willing to return to Shen Yu's side, and he arranged it for her like this. Wu Zi tasted the bitter taste, and he could only ask again: "Do you really think so?" ”
The wind blew, blowing the dried cloth and turning it in bursts, and the faint voice of the dexiu dispersed with the sound of the wind, and the silence was as if there was no soul: "A wise man never resents or delays, but will leave in a hurry and start all over again." I've fallen twice with you and Helianqi, and now I want to learn to be smart. ”
A wise man never resents or delays, but leaves in a hurry and starts all over again...... She spoke brilliantly, even more than he had expected. At this moment, Yun Ci was relieved, and Izumi was much stronger than he imagined. Even if she hurts her in the future, fails her again, or even grows up by herself, she will probably be able to survive strongly.
I once thought that I could still give her at least half a lifetime of happiness, but I never thought about it...... In the rest of the short time, staying with each other is a luxury. He could not give her wholehearted love, but had to hurt her painfully.
If he knew that this was the end of the relationship, he would rather ...... Never loved. At least, never to show it to her.
It's just that the last thing she has to do before she leaves is to arrange the rest of her life. And Yunfeng is definitely not a good match worthy of trust.
Thinking like this, Yun Ci did not respond for a long time. If the sky was still bright at this time, Izuku would definitely see the sad relief in Yun Ci's eyes. However, the reason why Yun Ci chose to come at the end of dusk was to see her clearly in the setting sun. Then, let the dark night that came as promised cover his last reluctance and affection.
Apparently, he did. Izumi said to herself, only her eyes could sweep the white, but she was powerless to see the face of the white-clothed fairy, and she couldn't see it clearly.
She finally gave up, and the explanation she was waiting for never came as scheduled, only countless grievances and misunderstandings. She has endured this kind of life. I don't want to hate, but it doesn't mean I'm willing to face it. can't wait for Shen Yu's redemption, maybe she can save herself.
In this way, I don't feel too much to owe anyone.
Izumi waited for Yun Ci's reply, only hoping to get his consent. But after waiting for a long time, he only waited for his categorical veto: "Yunfeng can't do it." I can't promise, I'd rather you hate me than promise. ”
When Chu Xiu heard this, he had to smile bitterly: "I really can't figure out your thoughts, you are high, and you shouldn't have to deal with me, a lowly prostitute." My deed of sale is still in your hands, and I am married to Yun Feng, so I am still a slave of Yun Mansion. Instead of looking at each other now, it's better to let me go and forget about each other, isn't it good? ”
Forget each other...... It turned out that she could say these four words indifferently. Yun Ci opened his mouth, but found that he was powerless to refute, only pain. was about to find some excuse for her to give up Yunfeng, but she saw Zhuying suddenly running in a panic, followed by Burning Yan, both of them with anxious faces.
"Lord Qiyu, Mrs. She...... It's gone! ”
Xia Yanran is gone? What does this mean...... Yun Ci immediately sank his face and shouted angrily: "Speak well!" ”
Zhuying looked behind him with some embarrassment, and Zhuo Yan immediately stepped forward, his eyes were slightly red, and he said urgently: "Back to the Hou Ye, Mrs. said that she was dizzy and wanted to vomit in the afternoon, and she wanted to go out for a walk, and said that too many people were bored in their hearts, and only let the slaves and maids follow them." After walking for a long time, the lady reasoned that she was panicked and ordered the slave to turn back to Zhiyanxuan to get a cloak, but when the slave and maid ran back again...... The lady was gone. ”
"When did you not see you?" Yun Ci frowned, grasping the point of the burning words.
Now, how dare Zhuo Yan hide it anymore, he only said: "It's enough...... It's been an hour. ”
An hour? Yun Ci pondered in his heart. Xia Yanran likes to dress up on weekdays, and she is a person who stays at home, and sometimes she can shine in front of the mirror for most of the day.
She never goes out easily, this time she has not seen her back after going out for so long, and she doesn't even have people around her, which is a bit unusual, not to mention that she is still pregnant with a child.
With Xia Yanran's arrogant and noble temperament, even if she goes out with a big belly, she should be afraid that the child will make a mistake, and let a group of people follow her, so why go out alone? Even...... Listening to the meaning of Zhuo Yan, she deliberately set aside everyone?
If you don't show up for an hour, even if you have the intention to play around, it shouldn't be Xia Yanran's style. Yun Ci raised his head and looked at the dark sky again, and finally became a little worried. Even if he has a shallow affection for Xia Yanran, after all, it is his wife, and he is also pregnant with his child in his belly.
At this point, Yun Ci finally couldn't care about continuing the topic with Zhu Xiu, and hurriedly said to Zhuying: "Send more people to search up and down the mansion." Then ask the guards at the front, side and back doors, and you can see that the lady is out. ”
It was getting late, and it was inconvenient to find someone. However, if you can't find anyone tonight, it can only mean that Xia Yanran's identity as Mrs. Xinhou is secretly targeted. Perhaps, it is not known whether it is the same group as the person who secretly has a poisonous heart.
After all, he was poisoned by love, and he was just a nameless child; But Xia Yanran's pregnancy gave birth to a healthy and healthy son!
Thinking of this, Yun Ci took a deep look at Xiu, and she could see her equally anxious face in the night. He has always had excellent eyesight, and he can see at night, and it is also this eyesight that he saw the girl who was sinking in the night a year and a half ago, and since then, he has been uncontrollable.
Yun Ci suddenly felt extremely lucky, glad that he was ruthless and ruthless to Izuxiu, and relegated her to this seemingly lowly Huan bathroom. This proves that he is right, this method has paralyzed the enemies in the shadows, and made them turn their attention to his wife!
It's not that he doesn't feel guilty about Xia Yanran, but he has things that are more worthy of protecting, and there are people he wants to protect more.
"You stay here, don't go anywhere." Yun Ci said coldly to Izuku, and quickly motioned to Zhuying to push himself out of the Huan Washroom to find Xia Yanran.
Throughout the night, Izumi obeyed Yun Ci's instructions and sat and waited in the Huan bathroom. But even if she didn't go out, she knew that Yunfu had already fallen out of trouble. The cries of the search and the light of the lantern filled her hearing and vision at the same time, making her feel palpitations for a while.
Izumi didn't dare to think about it, if Xia Yanran didn't go missing on her own, but was kidnapped...... The purpose of the captivity must be Yun Ci and his unborn child! If you dig deeper, it may be the position of this Lixin Hou.
First it was love poison, and then Xia Yanran disappeared for no reason - someone wants to make Yun quit without an heir!
This thought was born in an instant, and I couldn't help but make Xiu shudder. She didn't know if Yun Ci had thought of it too, but ...... She's going to tell him he's in danger! First let him have no heirs, and then one step, maybe he will be put to death!
Thinking like this, Izuku couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly picked up a lantern and ran into Zhiyanxuan, if Zhiyanxuan couldn't find it, she would go to Qingxinzhai, in short, she must tell Yun Ci!
At this time, it was almost midnight, and the house was indeed brightly lit, all looking for Xia Yanran's guards and subordinates, each carrying a lantern in his hand. As soon as he stepped out of the Huan Washroom, he was stopped before he took two steps.
"Girl, Master Hou has commanded, you can't go anywhere." A secret guard suddenly jumped out of the shadows, blocking the way out of Xiu.
"I have something very important to tell Master Hou." Out of Xiu urgently explained.
The secret guard was very scrupulous in his duties: "Girl, don't make it difficult for me. ”
The two of them took a lot of time to talk about this, but they didn't back down. was arguing, but when he heard the shouts of the people in the house, he suddenly became quiet, and finally, it gradually fell silent.
Could it be that someone has been found? Seeing this, Izuku breathed a sigh of relief, no longer insisted on going to see Yun Ci, apologized to the secret guard, and turned around and went back to the Huan bathroom.
The midnight washroom is eerie, it is a damp place, and there is a strange feeling at the moment. Izuku looked at the colorful brocades on the drying rack dancing in the wind, and felt like ghosts floating around in the underworld.
It's so unreal, and ...... Terror.
An ominous thought arose in her, as if she had a premonition that something terrible was about to happen. Even though I tried my best to calm my emotions, the anxiety and worry gradually intensified.
He was warning himself not to be cranky, but he heard a rush of footsteps outside the door of the washroom. At the same time as the door opened, Qianyun and Zhuying had already walked over with lanterns, and said to Chuxiu: "Master Hou sent you to the torture hall for questioning." ”
Torture Hall again? Izuku was a little puzzled, and with a "chuckle" in her heart, she subconsciously blurted out and asked, "Madame has found it?" ”
Hearing this, the light rhyme and the bamboo shadow both have a solemn look, especially the light rhyme, and the usually cold face is a little unbearable.
Out of Xiu's heart was instantly pinched up, before she could ask, the next moment, she had heard Qian Yun choked up and replied: "Madame's body was salvaged from the lotus pond in Jingyuan, and there is a dagger stuck in her lower abdomen...... Soaking ...... Unrecognizable. ”
