Chapter 67: Beauty Light Alliance Light Life and Death
Xia Yanran is dead! With a "boom", Izuku felt that his brain seemed to explode, and he stumbled and almost fainted: "What did you say?" ”
Qian Yun was no longer able to speak, only leaned on the bamboo shadow, and said again: "Don't delay, Master Hou sent you to the torture hall, let's go." ”
At this time, Chuxiu didn't care about Yun Ci's intention to summon him, and hurriedly carried the lantern with the two of them to the torture hall.
Along the way, as long as she remembered Qianyun's words, Xia Yanran's death clearly appeared in her mind, as if she had witnessed it with her own eyes, and the situation was terrifying.
What's more, Xia Yanran is still pregnant with a child, which is his child...... How cruel is it to have two lives in one corpse?
After more than three months, when he came to the torture hall again, he felt like he was in a different world. This time, there were fewer people in the hall, only Yun Ci was sitting on the main seat, and the fourth aunt Tai Luanqing and the divine doctor Qu Fang were attacked. Mrs. Tai and two bedrooms and three bedrooms, no one is visible.
According to common sense, if such a big thing happens, everyone in the Yun Mansion should be present, why are there only these few people at this moment? Izumi secretly pondered in his heart, but when he heard Yun Ci, he suddenly shouted: "Kneel!" ”
Izuku was startled, and then looked at Yun Ci on the throne of Danqi, but saw that his face was pale, his eyes were red, and his sadness was undisguised, which was haggard that she had never seen before.
yes, how can you not be sad? How can you not be emaciated? It was his wife who died, as well as his child, who had not yet been revealed.
Izumi only felt that she was going to cry, but she didn't know if it was for Xia Yanran or Yun Ci. She didn't think much about Yun Ci's abnormality, but when he was grief-stricken, she knelt down according to her words, and said in a hoarse voice: "Master Hou, please mourn." ”
Hearing this, Yun Ci sneered, which was extremely harsh. Izuku raised his head in bewilderment, only to find that he was holding something in his hand, wet, as if it was a ...... Clothes?
Just thinking about it, there was a soft sound of "pounce", and Yun Ci had already put the clothes in his hand in the center of the torture hall, which happened to fall in front of Izuxiu's eyes. She leaned over to see that it was a cloak, beautifully styled, unusually colorful, and ...... It's very familiar.
"This cloak is ......," Izuku muttered.
"Do you recognize this cloak?" Yun Ci's voice was like a cold and frozen lake, chilling to the bone: "I remember what you passed through and gave you the words." ”
"Yes." Izumi nodded and admitted that this cloak was the one that Xia Yanran gave her on the day she was molested by Yunqi, when she came to Kwai Shui. On the same day, she also made a special trip to ask Qianyun for a laundry ticket and sent it to the Huan Laundry Room for cleaning. Then, because he was demoted to the Huan bathroom, he forgot about it in a heartbroken state, and never saw the cloak again.
But the strange thing is that Jing's mother, who is in charge of the Huan Washroom, didn't remind her again, so it can be seen that she sent it to Xia Yanran.
Izuku's eyes looked carefully at the cloak on the ground, the cloak was **, and there were a few weeds stained with it...... This is...... Could it be that this is what Xia Yanran is wearing?
As soon as the question arose, Yun Ci said coldly: "This cloak is on the corpse of Pinyan." ”
Izuku suddenly understood why Yun Ci would recruit her to the torture hall. Thinking like this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook up a mocking smile, and said: "This cloak was lent by Madame to the slave maid to wear, and later the slave maid sent it to the Huan Washroom to wash it, and she has never seen it again." ”
"That's not what the mother in charge of the Huan Washroom said." Yun Ci's haggard face had a look of iron green, and green tendons were faintly visible on his forehead: "Mother Jing said that this cloak will be washed and handed over to you later." ”
What the? When he came out of the show, he raised his eyes and said in disbelief: "No! Never! I haven't seen this cloak since that day! ”
"Really?" Yun Ci's red eyes are like beasts in the forest, and he no longer sees the humility and gentleness of the past: "Then how do you explain this dagger!" ”
The moment the words landed, a cold light had already come towards the face of the Xiu attack, Qu Fang's eyes were clear and his hand quickly reached out to block it, and with a "bang", a dagger had fallen not far from the place where he was kneeling. She narrowed her eyes and saw that the ruby on the handle of the dagger was clearly visible, both red and blind, and the faint blood on the blade.
This dagger ...... It is clearly the mandarin duck dagger that Shen Yu once gave to himself! But on the day of Yun Ci's wedding, she had already found an excuse to change hands to Yun Ci, and Yun Ci gave Xia Yanran this one inlaid with rubies.
If she remembers correctly, the last time she saw this dagger was in the wedding room between Yun Ci and Xia Yanran, Xia Yanran was originally going to use it to cut paper, but she passed out before she could do it. It was also on that day that Yun Ci personally diagnosed that his wife was three months pregnant......
Suddenly, Izuku remembered what Qian Yun had said on the way when she came just now - Xia Yanran's corpse, in the lower abdomen, was stuck with a dagger.
Is this the one? But Izuku doesn't understand, what does this dagger have to do with him? Before a question could be spoken, he saw that Zhuying had hurriedly entered the torture hall, stretched out his hand and offered another mandarin duck dagger, and said, "Lord Hou, in addition, this dagger was searched from the room of the girl who came out of Xiu." ”
"It can't be!" Izuku looked at the faintly green gem in Zhuying's hand with wide eyes, and hurriedly confessed: "This dagger...... I haven't seen it in a long time, so how can I be in my room? ”
She paused for a moment, and then said to Yun Ci: "The mandarin duck daggers come in pairs, and they are your wedding gifts from Master Shen Xiao Hou to you privately. I have seen with my own eyes that you gave your lady the dagger encrusted with rubies, and it stands to reason that this dagger with emeralds should be in your hands. ”
She's telling the truth. The mandarin duck dagger must have been given to the husband and wife to keep, how could she steal one of them?
However, Yun Ci didn't listen to this explanation, and reached out and slapped his palm on the table, and said angrily: "You want to say that I deliberately framed you?" Put this dagger in your house? ”
Izumi was dumbfounded, and opened her mouth to stammer: "The slave didn't mean that. ”
"That's it." Yun Ci's face was full of sorrow, and Liang Liang asked: "Out of Xiu, now that Mrs. Tai and several aunts are not present, you can honestly say that Pinyan's death can be related to you?" ”
Just this sentence has made Chuxiu's heart sink into the endless abyss. She didn't expect that Yun Ci, who had just ordered the secret guard to protect her outside the Huan Bathroom, would charge her with this big crime in an instant!
Murder of Mrs. Lixinhou? How dare she? Although I don't know why Mother Jing in the Huan Washroom slandered her for holding the cloak, and I don't know why the mandarin duck dagger appeared in her room, but how could she swallow the grievance that would kill her?
"Nope! Madame's death had nothing to do with me. Out of Xiu replied sonorously, looked at Yun Ci and said, "Master Hou, have you forgotten?" At dusk tonight, you and I are in the washroom...... Half an hour away from the Huan Washroom and the Quiet Garden, how can I commit murder? Push the lady into the lotus pond again? Now, she no longer cares about Yun Ci's prestige, and has no choice but to openly tell the two of them to meet in private tonight.
"You're doing a good job, ask me to testify for you." Yun Ci retorted coldly: "When I saw you, the sun had set. At that time, Pinyan had been missing for a full hour. This is enough time for you to do some movements. ”
"Master Hou!" I can't believe it, this is the person she has always admired and admired? "With just a cloak, a dagger, and a confession that you don't know whether it's true or not, you're going to convict me?"
She stubbornly looked at Yun Ci, one was above the Danqi, the other was under the Danqi, and when the two looked at each other, they both saw the determination and coldness in each other's eyes.
After a long time, Yun Ci was the first to lower his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "These evidences alone are indeed not enough to convict you, but ...... You are the most motivated. ”
He didn't go to see Xiu, and analyzed in a deep voice: "You were my favorite maid, and you were even pregnant with a child. It was I who forced you to take away the child in order to marry Pinyan, and you didn't hold a grudge. Now that Pinyan is pregnant, and she treats you a lot, you want to take revenge, trick her out and commit murder in secret, how can it be impossible? ”
At this point, he finally looked at her again, his eyes were bloodshot at the same time, and his eyes were undoubtedly sharp, as if he wanted to crucify her firmly on this charge: "In the middle of Pinyan's lower abdomen, there is a dagger. If it weren't for the extreme hatred of the flesh and blood in her womb, why would you do this? ”
It was like an unopened blunt knife slashing heavily at Izuxiu's heart, and when the knife fell, although the pain was painful, it could not be easily killed. Yun Ci's words of condemnation, word by word, were heard in Chu Xiu's ears, and they were no longer grievances, but anger.
This is the man she once liked wholeheartedly! This is the man she thought knew she understood! This is the man who was gentle to her! It's the man she loves humbly to the bone!
What kind of man is this, who can indiscriminately wronged a woman who once had a skin-to-skin relationship and a mountain alliance and an oath!
She can endure disappointment, abandonment, disappointment, and even contempt......
But, by no means does it include grievances! Murderous grievances!
Why is this so! In his own heart, he is a fairy-like figure; But in his heart, he is actually a female devil who will kill people out of jealousy!
The pain of suffocation slowly attacked, and Xiu looked at Yun Ci, and wanted to defend himself again, so he forcibly held back the anger in his chest and said, "Even if I go to kill, it is impossible to use this dagger." This point, Shen Xiaohou can prove it for me. ”
How could a woman like her, who values love more than anything else, especially after knowing that this dagger is a thing of love, how could she use such a meaningful object to commit murder?
Izuku straightened her waist and slowly got up from the ground. Today's crime, no matter who framed her, she will never admit it, let alone kneel for it: "Please send Master Shen to ask Master Shen and ask him to testify for me." ”
"Do you know that Zifeng is not in the mansion today?" Yun Ci narrowed his eyes and said almost with great resentment: "He used to be your master, and now he takes care of you a lot, he will definitely cry out for you when he comes!" Besides, I have been friends with Zifeng for many years, if he speaks, why don't I let you go? How could you not know that today he went to King Mu's mansion for a banquet? ”
"What!" Izuku was choked speechless by this sentence. He lowered his eyebrows and thought about it, and finally had a hint of understanding. No matter how much you defend yourself, you will be convicted of this crime. The perpetrator found today, and arranged human and physical evidence, just to teach her to be speechless.
But at this moment, there is no resentment against the person who framed him. Her anger was all aimed at the Lixin Marquis, who was high above the Danqi.
A year and a half is enough for her to see a person clearly. If she had worshipped him as a god in the past, today he has fallen from her heart to the altar.
Everything, irretrievable.
"It turns out that I am so unbearable in the heart of Master Hou." Izuxiu's gaze slowly swept over everyone in the torture hall, Yun Ci, Luan Qing, Qu Fang, Zhu Ying, and Qianyun...... Everyone has become so strange, cold, and black and white.
"Out of Xiu......" Yun Ci opened his mouth at the right time, as if he had been thinking for a long time, before he said: "It is precisely because of the past situation that I privately sent you to question." Taking advantage of the fact that Mrs. Tai doesn't know the news yet, you reply to me, did you do this? ”
Izumi smiled when she heard this: "Now I say no, Hou Ye is credible?" ”
Yun Ci pursed her lips and didn't answer, the look clearly told her that he didn't believe it.
"Doesn't Master Hou have made up his mind in his heart?" Izuku can finally speak indifferently, just because his heart is like ashes.
She stood straight in the middle of the torture hall, with unprecedented sonorous arrogance, and said with a sad smile: "It's me who was blind and saw the wrong person, and now this ending is ...... I admit it. But what I haven't done, don't want to impose on me. ”
Suddenly, she seemed to see Yun Ci's slender fingers, gripping the armrest of the chair tightly, as if trying to restrain her emotions. And his gaze, which seems to be a calm Hanhai, is actually hidden and unfathomable.
Izumi suddenly found that she had never understood this person, it was she who imagined him too high and too good, and fell in love with the shadow outlined by the illusion in her heart. And the real Yun Gongzi has completely changed now.
After coming to Yunfu, no matter how Yun Ci hurt her again, whether it was asking her to kill the child, or letting her serve her wife, or even demoting her to the Huan bathroom, she never complained, only inferiority, and excused him, even at the expense of self-deception and sadness.
In her heart, she only remembered that he had washed her hair, took care of her with her clothes, and tried his best to change the prescription again and again for her loss of voice......
But now. Scold! The oath of the mountains and seas has long been destroyed and decayed, and the affectionate warmth has become a mirror...... Since she met Yun Ci, in the past year and a half, Xiu has felt a lot of regret for the first time: it was she who entrusted her.
If she was allowed to choose again, she would rather stay in Chasing Hongyuan, even if she would suffer all the bullying of Cha Cha and Shen Yu's cold eyes in the future, at least, she could keep the best thoughts, which was enough to support her for a long time.
Thinking of this, Izuku had slowly stroked his lower abdomen, and his eyes were full of sneering: "You are right, this child shouldn't want it." It would only be a shame for him or her to have such a father. ”
She didn't open her eyes, and she couldn't observe the looks of the people around her, but the faint gasp hinted at her, and someone was startled by the words. Yes, it is indeed a bit shocking that the high-ranking Lixin Marquis was so slandered by her as a lowly prostitute.
Izuku clenched the hands in his sleeves into fists, tried his best to contain the unbearable pain in his heart, and smiled a little: "It's me who has no eyes." This time...... It's also self-reaping. I'll keep this life. But I will never admit it! ”
It was as if there was a terrible resentment resounding in the sky, and the empty torture hall was full of powerful echoes of Xiu's words. The five words "I will never admit it" are like a curse, and they are wrapped in the hearts of everyone in the room, suddenly exerting force, slowly tightening, and suffocating.
Holding his increasingly painful chest, Chuxiu pulled out the hairpin on his head and pointed it directly at his throat, looking at Yun Ci and repeating sadly: "'Don't knot lightly for knights, don't take beauty lightly, I'm afraid it will die for me.'" 'Yun Ci, this sentence, I will return it to you today. From now on, you and I will never see each other again! ”
As soon as the word "see" came out, her hand suddenly tightened, and the tip of the hairpin had reached her throat. But before the stab could penetrate deeply, a heart-piercing pain surged in the chest, which was almost heartbreaking.
Out of Xiu's throat, he subconsciously reached out to cover his mouth, and a black blood clot vomited out, which was terrifying. Then, a sharp pain in her brain followed, and she had fallen backwards.
In a trance, Izuku seemed to see Yun Ci's slightly surprised face, but the surprise was followed by sadness. She didn't understand what he was surprised about, and he was so surprised that he had to cover his mouth with his hands, as if he was trying to restrain some kind of pain. If it weren't for the comforting smile between Yun Ci's eyebrows, she would almost have thought that he had vomited blood.
Before her consciousness disappeared, Izuku seemed to hear someone say, "It's finally solved!" ”
Immediately afterwards, several people exclaimed in unison: "Master Hou! ”
In the end, she only knew that she had closed her eyes and fell into a warm embrace, and the familiar smell of ambergris mixed with a faint medicinal fragrance hit again, and she tried her best to sniff deeply, but she never had this chance again.
From then on, life and death will never see each other again! She didn't know that Fang Cai's sentence of breaking love and righteousness would really become a prophecy!
The sound of cloud words came from the ears, like gratification, joy, reluctance, and sorrow, and finally it was all turned into two words: "Out of Xiu......"
Drops of moist water fell on the wound in Xiu's throat, carrying a heavy bloody aura. But she can be sure that it is not tears that fall from the clouds.
