Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Beauty of Adulthood

Ye Fanjin never thought that such a thing had happened to Rong Xu, the loss of love and chastity was a big blow to her, if it weren't for Xu Zhong, she might have ended it all with suicide at that time.

Now Rong Xu is still trapped in the shadow of the past, and if she wants to untie this knot, she needs to start with the people she cares about.

"My lord, have you found the person who bullied Madame in the first place?"

Xu Zhong said of that person, with a look of resentment, "Back then, the official dug three feet into the ground and finally found him, and felt that it was too cheap to give him a pain directly, and he has been locked up in the water prison and bitten by insects."

"This man is very useful, and he needs to be spared"

"What's the use?"

"I have a way to take a risk, I don't know if the adults are willing to do it?"

Xu Zhong couldn't help but wonder, leaned in to listen, and showed a hesitant look on his face, "This, will it backfire?" ”

"Whether it works or not, I only know after trying it, if Mrs. cares about you in her heart, this method is absolutely feasible, I promise your lordship, I will never let Mrs. get hurt, but I have to wronged you."

"Okay"

Ye Fanjin went to the water prison and looked at the person named Zhao Qun, his lower body was completely immersed in the water, and there were strange fish swimming around in the water, she knew that this kind of fish, named toothfish, especially likes to bite human flesh raw, but will not swallow it in the stomach.

Xu Zhong locked him here, he was bitten and painful by toothfish all the year round, it was indeed more torturous than cutting him with a knife, his lower body was estimated to have rotted and suppurated, and he couldn't do evil again in this life.

She stood by the pool, and when he noticed that she slowly lifted her face like a lion's hair, because she had not washed her face for a long time, she was dark and dirty, and he was very excited to see her pull at the chains.

"You, are you here to let me out?"

"Let you out?"

Her soft words seemed to give him great hope, and the chain of struggle resounded louder.

Then she hooked her lips coldly, as if a basin of ice water poured down from her head, freezing him in place.

"Do you want to harm other innocent women again?"

"No, I've already known that I'm wrong, I don't dare anymore, you plead with the county magistrate, let me go, I really know it's wrong"

"You can do whatever you want?"

When Zhao Qun heard that there was hope, he blurted out without thinking, "It's okay, as long as you can let me out, you can do whatever you want me to do"

She thought about it for a while, "But I don't know if you can help with this."

"Yes, I can, no matter what I am busy, let me go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire."

"Seeing that you are so active, then let me ask you, let you go to the county lady's room at night, do you dare?"

Zhao Qun's expression froze, and he hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, "No, don't dare, absolutely don't dare"

"If you don't have the guts, what else can you help?"

She turned around and left, Zhao Qun was anxious, not wanting to let go of this opportunity to go out, so he stopped her, "Yes, I will do whatever you ask me to do"

She smiled with satisfaction, "That's what you said."

At night, a figure quietly opened the door bolt, walked out and closed the door lightly, the room was pitch black, fortunately there was moonlight to see the block.

Under the cover of the night, the figure limped towards the bed in the back room.

Rong Xu on the bed just fell asleep, and she seemed to have a bad nightmare in her sleep, frowning and clutching the quilt on her body with both hands.

The figure limped to the side of the bed, and suddenly reached out to cover Rong Xu's mouth and nose, and Rong Xu opened his eyes in shock and couldn't see the face of the person in front of him clearly.

Rong Xu was covered with her mouth covered and couldn't speak, she could only make a mumping sound, her hands kept waving, her eyes were full of horror, and the other hand of the figure reached out to her to untie her collar, and she knew what the other party was going to do in an instant.

At this time, the scene completely coincided with the scene in the black alley back then, and she struggled more and more, and her eyes were full of tears.

However, when the figure leaned over and pressed down and was about to kiss her, the figure suddenly loosened its grip on her and fell aside, Xu Zhong appeared in front of her in time, and her tears of fear burst down and threw herself directly into Xu Zhong's arms.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here"

Xu Zhong comforted him, and fought with Zhao Qun, who rushed over again.

"Xu Zhong, you have locked me up for so many years, I finally escaped just to seek revenge on you, you should die"

Xu Zhong pushed the vase to the side, and the vase shattered to the ground with a "bang", picking up the pieces on the ground and waving them at Xu Zhong.

"Xu Zhong, be careful" Rong Xu looked frightened, his eyes staring at the fragment in Zhao Qun's hand.

Xu Zhong was trying to comfort her not to worry, but when she was distracted for a while, Zhao Qun suddenly approached and the fragment in her hand was directly inserted into Xu Zhong's abdomen, and then jerked hard.

Rong Xu's eyes widened, and he suddenly panicked, and rushed over desperately, covering the bleeding wound with his hand, and tears kept flowing out.

"Xu Zhong! You can't die, don't die, you said you would protect me for the rest of your life, you said you would never leave me, you can't break your word"

"Rong Xu, I know you can't forget Nancheng, and I won't force you to do anything, I just want to know, the moment you agreed to marry me as your wife, do you have me in your heart?"

The hands covering the wounds were covered with blood, Rong Xu was even more flustered, crying and shouting for the doctor, she did not hesitate at all about Xu Zhong's question, and almost blurted out.

"Yes, I have always had you in my heart, but I dislike my unclean body, I feel that I am not worthy of you, I ......"

Xu Zhong raised his hand to touch her tear-stained face and smiled contentedly, "That's enough."

Ye Fanjin seized the opportunity to run into the room, calmed Rong Xu's excitement, and immediately stopped the bleeding of Xu Zhong's wound, this knife avoided the vital point, as long as the bleeding stopped, there would be no worry about his life.

The screams of the maid sounded outside the door, shouting that there was a dead person, and before Rong Xu could ask, Ye Fanjin directly confirmed her guess.

"I killed Zhao Qun"

"You, who are you?" Rong Xu protected Xu Zhong in his arms, and saw that Ye Fanjin's eyes were full of defense.

"If I have any bad thoughts about adults, why bother to act in this scene? The adults respect the lady and have been waiting for the lady to let go of the past and accept the adult, but this wait is more than ten years. ”

"The affection of the adult for the lady can be seen even by me, an outsider, so why should the lady close her heart to those unpleasant pasts? Feelings are a matter of two people, and Mrs. has always lived in the shadow of the year, so isn't it a kind of torture for adults? ”

"Now that the adult is injured, the lady's husband is so anxious that she even regards me as a person with bad intentions, doesn't it mean that the lady also cares about the adult very much? Why do you blame yourself for the sins committed by others, so that both parties can be happy for more than ten years? ”

Rong Xu looked down at Xu Zhong in his arms, his hand caressed his slightly haggard face, and smiled with relief

"I have seen everything he has done to me over the years, but I have always felt that I have lost my innocence, so I can't repay him, and I always feel that I am not worthy of his goodness. To meet him in this life is God's greatest gift to me, but I ignore his feelings because of my own selfishness, and this fool ......"

As he spoke, Rong Xu wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, and smiled while wiping it, "It's better to say that he is stupid than to say that I am stupid, he has been guarding him for more than ten years, and he will never give up, but I turn a blind eye, how can I Rong Xu He De be treated like this?" He gave up his life for me, so why should I cling to the past and keep him out? I'm so stupid, why do I only figure it out now? ”

Ye Fanjin patted Xu Zhong's arm, "My lord, did you hear it?" ”

Rong Xu's crying eyes looked at her in surprise, and then turned to Xu Zhong, who suddenly woke up, with an unknown expression.

Xu Zhong raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes for her, no matter how painful the wound was, it couldn't compare to the joy in his heart at this time, and even the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

"Meeting you in this life is also God's greatest gift to me"

Rong Xu almost thought that he was going to die, but he didn't know that it was a scene between him and Ye Fanjin, although he let go of the knot, he was still a little angry, and pushed him a little harder.

"Hey, madam, the injury is real," Xu Zhong cried out in pain.

Rong Xu immediately became nervous again, wanting to ask Ye Fanjin to help take a look, but he didn't know that Ye Fanjin had already quietly left the room, and there were only two of them left in the room, and there was a small medicine bottle on the table.

Ye Fanjin, who was standing at the entrance of the yamen, looked at the ring in his hand, and kept doubting in his heart, the timing of the ring's appearance was too coincidental, and Rong Xu's illness was also strange, these things seemed to be deliberately arranged by someone to deliberately attract her here, what was the purpose?
