Chapter 131: Exploiting Each Other
Who is the person behind Shen Miaoling, after all, it is still impossible to find out!
Because the day after Shen Miaoling woke up, there was a fire in Linghuaju that burned all the clues!
Thick smoke rushed into the sky, the choking smell of kerosene filled the air, and when people found out, the fire was too late to rescue!
When Min Qingrou and Situ Yue arrived at the scene, Linghuaju had already become a sea of fire, and the people were sweating and pouring water, as if to help the fun, only let the flames jump a few times, and then it was completely useless!
The fire burned all night, and no one in Linghua Curie survived. When the day dawned, the fire finally gradually subsided, and the people who had been busy all night continued to work harder, and finally put out the fire.
In the ruins of thick smoke everywhere, people found several burnt corpses that were burned beyond recognition, and I don't know which one was the next person and which one was Shen Miaoling's.
Min Qingrou walked over, looked carefully at the broken charred corpses, and saw a burnt carved silver bracelet with some discoloration on the wrist of one of the charred corpses, and then squatted down.
She recognized this silver bracelet, which Miao Ling usually wears every day, she took a deep breath, and said in a low voice to the charred corpse: "Miao Ling, are you so decisive, right? Knowing that I won't force you, you still choose to embark on this desperate road? Or, your child is gone, your heart is dead, and you feel that there is no point in living?"
Situ Yue looked at the Linghuaju that was razed to the ground overnight, and his heart was also slightly shaken. He also didn't expect Shen Miaoling to do this, he always knew that Shen Miaoling had a problem, but in the past few years, she had not done anything too unforgivable in the Qi Palace, except for preventing others from continuing the heir for him, so he never attacked her!
It's just that after Min Qingrou revealed her identity, I'm afraid that she also feels that she can't stay in the Qi Palace, right?
"Pass the order down, bury the Linghua people, and their families will give one hundred taels of silver each. Concubine Ling was buried in the costume of the prince's side concubine, and the Shen family gave five hundred taels of silver. ”
After Situ Yue instructed everyone, he turned around and left Linghuaju. Min Qingrou stood up, looked at the ruined Linghuaju again, and turned to leave.
Leaving Linghuaju, the two of them walked towards Wei Chenfeng's residence in unison.
Situ walked very slowly, I don't know if he had something on his mind, or if he was hesitating. Min Qingrou quickly crossed over him, and deliberately asked when she passed by him, "Does the prince want to go back to the Pujia Palace?"
Situ Yue stopped, looked up at Min Qingrou's back, and clenched his fists slightly. She knew that this road was going to Wei Chenfeng's residence, and she asked knowingly!
Min Qingrou seemed to know Situ Yue's thoughts, and after taking two steps, she stopped, turned around and smiled with a faint mockery: "Oh, the prince is going to see Wei Chenfeng? Wei Chenfeng betrayed you like this, you can still ignore the past suspicions, it really makes the concubine admire! Sure enough, he is doing great things, this kind of bearing is not comparable to anyone!"
"This king has never doubted Wei Chenfeng's loyalty to this king!"
Situ Yue explained heavily, as if he wanted to find a reasonable excuse for his actions.
"Oh, that's right! The prince has always treated Wei Tong like a brother, the so-called brother is like a sibling, and a woman is like a dress! Women, if you don't like it, change it, brother likes it, and there is nothing that you can't give up! The concubine body understands! Let's go, it just so happens that the concubine body also wants to go and see how Wei Commander is injured, why don't you go together?"
Min Qingrou looked at Situ Yue, but her eyes flashed with a provocative light.
"Why not?"
Situ Yue replied stiffly, and strode forward.
The corners of Min Qingrou's mouth hooked up a shallow smile, and she also followed.
The two of them came to Wei Chenfeng's room one after the other.
Wei Chenfeng was injured that day and had been bedridden for several days. The doctor took a look at it and said that the internal injuries were quite serious, and he almost hurt his heart! Fortunately, Commander Wei was in good health and survived this catastrophe. What we need to do now is to recuperate so that the body can fully recover.
Situ Yue has also been thinking about it for a long time in the past few days, and under the impulse of that day, he did say a lot of angry words. Now that I think about it, although I don't regret it, I also feel that my decision was inappropriate.
But the words had already been said at that time, how could he take it back now? Especially when he knew that Min Qingrou was not pure feelings for him, half of the original guilt in his heart disappeared.
Since the two of them are using each other, don't talk about any sincerity, all emotions should be reined in, and completing the great cause well is the right way!
Thinking like this, you don't care too much about it. Wei Chenfeng is his right-hand man, if he really abandons him for a woman, then he is still unwise!
Wei Chenfeng was lying on the bed, his face was still very pale. There was a bowl of soup on the table next to the bed, but it was out of heat.
Wei Chenfeng, who was originally lying on the bed in a daze, saw Situ Yue and Min Qingrou coming to visit together, so he quickly got up from the bed, knelt down and bowed.
"Subordinates knock to see the prince!
"You still have injuries on your body, no need to be polite!"
Situ Yue raised his hand.
"Commander Wei, how are your injuries, are you okay?"
Min Qingrou stepped forward to help Wei Chenfeng without hesitation, and asked with concern.
Wei Chenfeng hurriedly pushed Min Qingrou away, took a step back, bowed back and said, "The subordinates are fine, please rest assured, please rest assured! In a few days, the subordinates will be able to move freely!"
"It's okay. ”
Situ Yue glanced at Min Qingrou's slowly withdrawn hand, and replied stiffly.
"Lord Wang!"
Wei Chenfeng suddenly stepped forward, knelt in front of Situ Yue and said: "My subordinates know that they deserve to die! I don't dare to ask the prince for forgiveness, I just ask the prince to spare his subordinates this time for the sake of Chenfeng's dedicated service in the past, and let the subordinates return to you! The subordinates are born to protect the prince, if the prince abandons it, the subordinates might as well die!
After that, he landed on his knees and kowtowed heavily to Situ Yue, his expression was unprecedented pleading and compassionate.
Situ Yue looked at him and was silent for a long time. Finally, he finally spoke: "What can you do when you come back to me?"
Hearing Situ Yue say this, Wei Chenfeng's face suddenly changed, does the prince really not want him?
Thinking of this, Wei Chenfeng felt a burst of sorrow in his heart, stepped forward and grabbed Situ Yue's shirt tightly and begged bitterly: "Lord, please spare your subordinates! Your subordinates will never have the slightest dislike for your prince in the future! Ask your subordinates to be merciful! Your subordinates have been following you for so many years, and your subordinates can't just leave you!
However, no matter how much he pleaded, Situ Yue still refused to speak, he only felt a burst of despair come to his heart, and he knelt on the ground and cried.
Seeing this, Min Qingrou picked up the decoction on the bedside table and sent it to Wei Chenfeng and said: "If you don't drink the medicine, how can the injury be healed? You are like this, how can the prince keep you? Even if you are left, what can you do for the prince? The prince will go to Qingzhou in the near future, and I am afraid that you will not be able to catch up!"
"The prince is going to Qingzhou?"
Hearing Min Qingrou's words, Wei Chenfeng was shocked, and suddenly raised his head to look at Situ Yue.
Wei Chenfeng was very clear about the affairs of the court, and the prince's decision to go to Qingzhou must be to pull the king's pigtails. This trip must be dangerous, how can he do it if he is not by the prince's side?
"Lord Wang, please let your subordinates go to Qingzhou with you!"
Wei Chenfeng hurriedly pleaded.
"You can't take care of your health, you don't have to talk about anything! This king doesn't want to bring a waste with him!"
Situ Yue's gaze glanced at Min Qingrou, and finally landed on Wei Chenfeng's face coldly.
"Yes! My subordinates will definitely get better! I will drink the medicine, I will drink the medicine immediately!" Wei Chenfeng suddenly felt ecstatic when he heard this, turned his head and took the soup bowl in Min Qingrou's hand, and drank it in one go!
Then he put down the soup bowl and kowtowed to the two of them again and again: "Thank you for your kindness! Thank you Concubine Rou!"
"Okay, you can take care of your injuries! This king still has something to do, so let's go first!"
Situ Yue waved his hand and walked out of Wei Chenfeng's room.
"Concubine Rou Niangniang, thanks to you this time! My subordinates can return to the prince's side, I am really grateful! My subordinates can't repay me, please accept my worship!"
After watching Situ Yue walk out of the door, Wei Chenfeng suddenly bowed to Min Qingrou again.
"Don't thank me! I just want to use you to help me get revenge! Situ Yue will be greatly reduced without your right-hand man, which is not good news for me! So, you don't have to be too grateful to me, everything I have done is for myself!"
Min Qingrou replied indifferently.
Wei Chenfeng raised his head, but said slowly: "Niangniang doesn't have to say this deliberately, your subordinates know that you are still sincere to the prince! Your subordinates will not be mistaken! You and the prince are not ruthless people, but they are just ...... It's just that they're used to hiding their hearts!"
Min Qingrou listened, and her heart moved slightly. He only said lightly, 'You can rest', and walked out of the room.
Out of Wei Chenfeng's room, Min Qingrou walked straight along the corridor in the courtyard, through the garden to a gazebo, but saw Situ Yue standing under the pillars of the pavilion waiting.
She didn't deliberately avoid it, but stepped forward and asked bluntly, "Is the prince waiting for me?"
Situ Yue didn't beat around the bush, looked at her and asked, "How do you know I'm going to Qingzhou?"
Before he could tell her about his plans, the two suddenly broke up, but she still guessed!
"If you don't let me go, naturally you plan to go by yourself! Is there anything hard to guess about this? Qingzhou and his party are extremely dangerous, so the prince should be careful!"
Situ Yue's eyes flashed, and he suddenly asked: "You let Wei Chenfeng fight to the death against the person behind Shen Miaoling, just to make him guilty and make meritorious contributions? You already know that the man in black has strong martial arts, and it is impossible to be captured easily, you are doing all this just to give me an excuse to take Wei Chenfeng back to his side?"
Min Qingrou glanced at Situ Yue and said lightly: "The prince doesn't let the concubine go to Qingzhou for an adventure, and the concubine naturally can't let you go alone!
Speaking of this, she added another sentence: "Don't misunderstand, although I am doing this for the sake of the prince's safety, the premise of everything is that I still need the prince to help me take revenge!
Situ Yue, who was originally a little moved in his heart, listened to Min Qingrou's words later, and a wave of anger suddenly rose in his heart.
He sneered and said: "Don't worry! This king is not so vulnerable! You can rest assured that you can rely on it! But you also remember that if you want to take refuge in this king, you will give full play to the effect of building the Kiev Star! Maybe this king will be happy and will keep you by his side."
A few days!"
"Yes, thank you so much!"
Min Qingrou immediately thanked her for her kindness and blessing: "The concubine is used to being a high-ranking master in the Qi Palace, if she follows Commander Wei to be an ordinary woman in the future, maybe she is really not used to it! The prince is hardworking, and the concubine is grateful!"
"You know, you don't have to thank you!"
Situ Yue seemed to be angry, waved his sleeve robe, and walked away.
Min Qingrou looked at his stiff back, also clenched her fists slightly, and pursed her lips.
On the trip to Qingzhou, she couldn't go with him. Because she wanted to stay, take advantage of Situ Yue's absence in Chengwangfu to investigate the cause of her death.
Is it because of the intrigue in the mansion, or because of Situ Chi's ambition? Her hatred, her children's hatred, someone must take responsibility!
When she was beaten by King Cheng, framed by Xuanyuan Wuzhen, and when she was dying, Qin Sangyu gave her another pill of Broken Intestine Pill, and she was puzzled in her heart.
Knowing that she was going to die, why did she risk poisoning the princess to give her a pill of poison? She didn't think that she really pitied her and wanted to give her a good time!
Moreover, this Qin Sangyu can also do martial arts, and he actually escaped the guards!
There must be some ulterior secret behind her!
This time, she wants to find out! Absolutely not let any of them go!
