Chapter 170: The Dust Settles

The window lattices opened and closed, and a strong wind entered, breaking the silence of the moment. The moonlight invaded wantonly, reflecting the diamond-like stars in the sky into the hall, entangled with candles, clearly illuminating everyone's demeanor, and even people's hearts were illuminated a little.

Mu Xuefu's eyes fell on Hua Mei'er's belly, which had not yet bulged, but what flashed in her mind was the shadow of Hua Xitan.

Shaking her head, Mu Xuefu said coldly: "If you confess to be the mastermind behind the scenes, I may intercede with the prince on your behalf, let the prince open the net, and spare your life." You are pregnant with a child now, and you don't want to die, don't you even want his life? ”

Hua Meier's eyes lit up suddenly, if thousands of stars were condensed, it was a desire for life. Soon, however, Starlight began to fall, leaving only darkness behind. She shook her head, a pained expression on her face, "Even if he survives, he will be infamous for my life." In that case, why should I bring him into this world to suffer? It is better to return to dust and dust with me, so as not to suffer the pain of reincarnation in the world. ”

Mu Xuefu gently frowned at the eyebrows painted as Yu Yudai, and her voice couldn't help but add a little anger, "Hua, I see that you are really tired." It's ridiculous that you would rather die than defend others when you have an opportunity in front of you. ”

Hua Mei'er's heart suddenly burst, and then she raised her eyebrows and said angrily to Mu Xuefu: "Why is the princess so sure that I must have been instructed by someone?" Don't forget, I am the one who hates you the most in this palace. Ever since you entered the house, I have been against you at every turn. confronted you in public, said bad things about you, fell into the well when the prince snubbed you, did not let the kitchen send you fresh food, and united with the late Concubine Hua De to embarrass you when you entered the palace, and even wanted to poison the wine by sending you osmanthus wine, hoping that you would have a rotten stomach and bleed to death through seven holes. I hate you for poisoning, and I want to eat your flesh and drink your blood. ”

Her eyes were red, and tears rolled in her eyes, "I hate you before you enter the mansion, why can you become a princess as soon as you enter the mansion, but I can only be a concubine, and I have been pressed by you all my life!" So when there were rumors outside that you looked like no salt and had a bad fate, I helped build momentum, hoping that the prince would dispel the idea of marrying you when he heard such rumors. But the prince still married you, but what makes me even happier is that the prince didn't go to greet you on the day he married you, and he didn't even worship in the hall, do you know how happy I was when I knew about it? You haven't even worshipped, what kind of princess are you? ”

"After that, I was even happier, the prince married you, but he didn't set foot in your courtyard for a single step, you are no different from the cold palace. I thought you would fall out of favor for the rest of your life, but I didn't expect you to be able to use the means, and it didn't take long to hook the soul of the prince. I've been in the palace for so many years, and I've never seen him love someone so much, it's all about you. If you like plum blossoms, he will ask King Rong for you, and he will buy the house you like for several times the price, and if you like to wear clothes, he will directly open a shop for you to choose. I pampered you like a jewel in the palm of my hand, but I abandoned us like clogs, and I didn't want to look at it more. ”

"Do you know that you are responsible for the fate I am in now. If it weren't for you, I would have thought that I would have always had a chance, a chance to become a princess, a chance to be favored by the prince. Hua Meier's mist-stained gaze hurriedly swept over everyone, without stopping at anyone, "I know that I am pregnant, and I will not be able to hide it in a few months, and I will definitely die at that time." But I'm not reconciled, I feel that I have come to this point because of you, and you have forced me to a dead end. If it weren't for you, how could I have betrayed the prince? Therefore, before I die, I must pull you on my back, even if I die, I want you to die in front of me. So, there was no one to direct me, and I arranged everything. ”

Hearing her say such a long paragraph, Mu Xuefu pursed her lips helplessly, shook her head slightly, sighed with her snort, and said: "I believe what you said earlier, you really hate me, and I even know the osmanthus wine you said." The hand held by Jing Rong suddenly tightened, she looked at him, gave a reassuring look, and said: "Although you hate me, you wish I died, but it's not that I belittle you, you don't have the brain to think things so thoroughly." The human and material evidence is complete, and if it weren't for the slightest mistake, I really couldn't defend myself. ”

That day, Hua Mei'er pretended to be kind enough to give her wine, but it was just because she poisoned the wine and wanted to poison her. Not only will the poison not be easily detected, but it is only aimed at women, so Jing Rong will be fine if he drinks it. And the reason why Hua Meier dared to drink it was because she took the antidote in advance. But Mu Xuefu knew that the wine was poisoned, but she also unintentionally planted willows and willows, because she really didn't like the taste of osmanthus, so she asked people to pour out all the urn of osmanthus wine sent by Hua Mei'er. But the person who poured the wine secretly drank a bowl of it when he was greedy, and in the blink of an eye, he bled to death.

It's just that she and Jing Rong were in a cold war at that time, so she didn't make a noise, but just buried the subordinate on the grounds of sudden death, and gave his family a large amount of settling-in expenses. And this matter was also endured by her, just waiting for the right opportunity to clean up Hua Meier.

Unexpectedly, today, she took the initiative to mention this matter.

Jing Rong held Mu Xuefu's hand tightly, with nervous doubts in her eyes, "The wine she gave that day was poisonous?" Why didn't you mention it to this king before? ”

Mu Xuefu held his hand with his backhand and said softly: "I'll talk to you when I go back." ”

Turning his head and saying to Hua Mei'er, "Hua Clan, is that person so important?" Is it important enough for you to ignore yourself, the child in your womb, and the father of your child? ”

Hua Mei'er's expression was like a decadent autumn flower, leaving only the color of gloomy, and after pondering for a moment, she still didn't change her words, "No one is behind my back to instruct me, the princess is probably thinking too much." ”

"Really? Is it that I think too much, or is the person hiding behind you too powerful for you to dare to say? I think it must be not easy for you to sacrifice so much to maintain the person. A cold crack appeared on Mu Xuefu's delicate face, and she looked around with a smile, pausing on everyone's face. Everywhere they looked, everyone didn't dare to make a sound, and they all reported in shock. Mu Xuefu retracted her gaze contemptuously, and slightly supported the hairpin on the side of the bun, the pearl and jade were cold, like the frozen ice beads on the plum blossom branches in the wax moon, which made people feel cold, "It seems that the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon of King Chen's Mansion." ”

The corners of Princess Yu's mouth drooped, revealing a little unhappiness, and she didn't look at Mu Xuefu, she only turned her face to another place, and said impatiently: "The Hua family has already admitted all the guilt, why does Princess Chen still want to hold on to others?" Whatever is behind someone's instructions, I think it's all your imagination. This Hua is shameless and vicious, and she knows that everything is behind her back without asking. ”

Mu Xuefu knew that she couldn't ask anything more, so she withdrew her gaze from Hua Mei'er and looked out along the open window lattice. Outside the window, it was pitch black, except for the shimmering leaves swaying in the moonlight. Tossed until midnight, after spending so much energy, she had a feeling of tiredness from the inside out, "Please decide everything." ”

Jing Rong didn't say much this night, especially after Hua Meier admitted that she had fornication and had a secret knot, she barely spoke. Everyone was waiting for his thunderous wrath, but the most angry thing about him this night was because Liu Er wanted to be bad for Mu Xuefu, so he was angry and directly unloaded the people into eight pieces and fed them to the dogs.

was cuckolded by his own concubine, and even had a child, and if he changed to another man, he would have been furious, and it was not an exaggeration to even kill the adulterer. But Jing Rong looked indifferent from beginning to end, as if this matter had nothing to do with him, and he was just a bystander.

Jing Rong said "um" softly, his eyes seemed to be open, and he squinted on Hua Mei'er and Pan Qihao's faces, and after a moment, he said: "Hua, although you are not favored by this king, this king has not treated you badly." You are not willing to be lonely, you don't keep the way of women, but you do things with people behind your back, and you are secretly knotted. He squeezed his hands, and his bones "gurgled", "This is already an unforgivable crime, but you have not repented, and you have intensified, and even colluded with others to murder and slander the princess." You are purely self-defeating, and you can't complain about it. ”

Hua Mei'er raised her eyes sadly, stared at him and said, "The concubine knows that she is guilty of a lot of sin, and she only wants to die." ”

Pan Qihao walked to Jing Rong's feet on his knees, kowtowing like pounding garlic, "No, Lord Wang, it's all a subordinate crime if you don't care about Concubine Hua's side." It was the subordinates who saw the lust and became conscientious, and they betrayed the concubine, everything was the fault of the subordinates. begged the prince to spare her life, and it was not a pity for her subordinates to die with a thousand knives. ”

Hua Mei'er hugged him, her forehead was pressed against his bloodstained shoulder, her face was watery, and she cried: "Don't ask for it, don't ask for it, it's never your fault, it's me, it's my fault, it's me who has burdened you and hurt you." Pan Lang, I am not afraid of death, I can die with you, I will die as I deserve. ”

Jing Rong looked at the grief-stricken mandarin duck in front of him expressionlessly, and snorted sarcastically. The jade wrench on his thumb was transparent and green, and it was even more lustrous under his constant rubbing. Suddenly, his hand stopped, and he only heard a cold half of his mixed voice, "Lock them up first, and kill them with a cane tomorrow." ”

The words "cane killing" came out of his mouth, and everyone present looked at him with trembling care.

For so many years, the prince has always been lenient to the relatives in the palace, and he never thought that Hua Meier would be the first to be killed by the prince himself.

Everyone just watched quietly as the two of them were taken away by the guards, and they didn't dare to make a sound. The hall was very quiet, and the sound of agarwood crumbs melting in the incense burner could be clearly heard, and the cigarette smoke curled like mist, and when the wind blew, it finally dissipated, disturbing the smoke in the room.

Mu Xuefu sighed slightly, shallow and silent, she turned to look at Jing Rong, and her hands gradually became entangled.
