Chapter 6: Only the Dead Keep Secrets

Song Shirui saw that Yunluo was real, she shouted in fear, "Help, helpβ€”"

She shouted and ducked to the side in horror, stumbling under her feet, knocking down many jade vases.

"Don't come, don't come!"

The door had already been closed by Yunluo, and Song Shirui had no way to hide, crying and screaming.

Yunluo looked at her coldly, walked slowly in front of her calmly, and raised the rope in his hand expressionlessly.

"I don't know now that I'm afraid, it's too late. ”

Her voice was like a rakshasa of hell.

"Ahhβ€”β€”!h

After Yunluo wrapped the rope around Song Shirui's neck a few times, he tightened his hands hard.

Song Shirui's voice also changed from the initial scream to suffocation, her eyes widened and she stared ahead, her legs staring forward desperately.

I don't know how long it has been-

The sound was gone.

Song Shirui also completely quieted down in the helpless struggle.

Yunluo then loosened the strength in his hand.

Because she was so forced, the palms of her hands were torn.

When the clouds came out of the Fuqu Pavilion, the snow outside was falling even more.

She put her hand on the hat of her cloak and stepped into the snow.

At this moment, Jin Shu walked in from the opposite corner door with a food box, and bumped into Yunluo head-on.

Because the snow was too heavy, Yunluo was half covered by the hat on the cloak again, and Jinshu didn't see that it was her.

Until they got closer, the two passed by.

Yun Luo suddenly raised his cold eyes and stared at the brocade book.

Jin Shu's eyes were stunned, and he hurriedly knelt down towards her, "See, see the princess." ”

I don't know if she was scared or frozen, her voice stumbled.

Seeing that she had been recognized by Jinshu, Yunluo simply stopped, she turned around and looked at Jinshu with a wide gaze.

"Footprints will soon be covered in snow, and only the dead will keep the secret. Have you ever seen me outside the Fuqu Pavilion today?"

Jin Shu threw himself into the snow, his head resting on the ground, his voice trembling with fear but extremely firm.

"Nope. ”

Yunluo retracted his gaze with an indifferent face, and glanced at her with his peripheral vision, "If you don't have it, you don't have to kneel." ”

With that, she walked on.

Although Yunluo had already spoken, Jinshu still knelt in the snow and didn't dare to get up.

It wasn't until Yunluo's figure disappeared into the corner gate that she raised her head slightly.

She stood up from the snow tremblingly, bent down and patted the snow stains on her body before picking up the food box and turning back to Fuqu Pavilion.

Not long after she walked into the Fuqu Pavilion, a terrible scream came from the Fuqu Pavilion.

"Ahβ€”β€”!h

Resounded throughout the palace.

......

Song Shirui died, and the Fuqu Pavilion was brightly lit all night, and people went in and out.

Before dawn, the coffin containing Song Shirui was carried out from the corner gate.

Two lives died in succession in the palace, one of which was still a favored side concubine.

The atmosphere of the palace instantly became oppressive and solemn.

After dawn, the snow also stopped.

Deserted backyard.

Yunluo has already gotten up, just like in her previous life, she will sleep well all night after every killing, and she sleeps very soundly.

She looked out the window and said, "Qiu Ju, come in with a basin of hot water." ”

There was no response.

Yunluo frowned, sat up from the bed, and walked to the door and opened the door.

The yard was deserted, and there was no popularity at all.

"Qiu Ju?" Yunluo called again, but still no one replied to her.

Her eyes sank.

At this time, Qiu Ju stumbled all the way towards the prince's courtyard.

When she got up in the morning, she intended to go to get the meal, but she heard that the people in the house were spreading the news of Concubine Song's death.

Qiu Ju's heart instantly lifted!

She is Concubine Song's person, and as soon as Concubine Song dies, she will have no backer in the house.

And the princess is investigating the pretending again......

So she decided to take the initiative, otherwise her fate would likely be the same as Yao's mother.

"Lord Wang, the slave has something important to report. ”

Qiu Ju knelt at the door of Jiang Lingyan's courtyard and begged to see her, the cold ground stinged her knees, and she could clearly feel the cold air penetrating.

Crunch –

Jiang Lingyan's door was slowly opened by Gu Tang, and his expressionless face looked like Jiang Lingyan.

Xu has been with his master for a long time, and even his every move is similar.

Qiu Ju didn't have time to think, and when she saw someone coming out, she knelt all the way forward excitedly, until she crawled in front of Gu Tang, grabbed the corner of his robe and cried loudly, "The slave knows who killed the side concubine, but the stakes are very high, and you must face the prince, and ask Gu Ye to help the slave and maid report." ”

Gu Tang glanced down at her, quietly withdrew the corner of his clothes, and then turned his head to look at Jiang Lingyan in the room.

Jiang Lingyan's lowered eyes finally raised, "Let her in." ”

Qiu Ju heard the words of the prince coming from the house, got up with a sigh of relief, and staggered into the house.

On the main seat, Jiang Lingyan was covered in coldness, drinking tea, full of dignity.

Qiu Ju knelt down in front of Jiang Lingyan and cried, "Lord Wang, the side concubine was killed by the princess, please ask the prince to be the master of the side concubine." ”

Jiang Lingyan's usual cold face finally reacted.

He looked up and asked in a deep voice, "Is there any evidence?"

Qiu Ju couldn't help but shudder at the gaze that was more cold than the cold wind and snow outside, and she hurriedly spoke, "After dark last night, the slave maid went to deliver food to the princess, and saw that the princess was not in the house, but at the time when the side concubine Niangniang was killed. The princess must have been jealous of the concubine who complained to the prince yesterday and slapped her. ”

"It was snowing in front of her head, and the princess was caught in the cold and lay in bed for a few days, and when she woke up, she was like a different person, even Yao's mother was killed, and she also had murderous intent when she talked to the slave maid. ”

Her voice paused, and her head hit the ground heavily, "The princess has already killed two people, and the next one will be the slave maid, please ask the prince to save the slave maid." ”

Jiang Lingyan's cold brows gradually furrowed.

Gu Tang on the side had been following Jiang Lingyan for a long time, and when he saw Jiang Lingyan's expression, he could vaguely guess a few points.

He shot his eyes at Qiu Ju and scolded, "What do you look like crying in front of the prince, don't hurry up and shut up!"

Qiu Ju was so frightened that her body trembled, she immediately shut up, kneeling on the ground with tears in her eyes, and even sobbing desperately suppressed and didn't dare to make it.

Gu Tang retracted his cold eyes, then walked to Jiang Lingyan's side, and said in a low voice, "Master, my subordinates feel that with the princess's temperament, they should not dare to kill the side concubine, and the princess is the general's concubine, if she disposes of it rashly without evidence, I am afraid it will ......."

Before he could say what he said later, Jiang Lingyan interrupted him coldly, "But since someone has reported it, it means that it is not groundless." ”

When Jiang Lingyan said this, it meant that he had already made a decision.

Gu Tang didn't say anything anymore.

After a while, Jiang Lingyan stood up from the chair, waved the robe on his body, and said coldly, "Go and hear what she has to say." ”

As he spoke, he stepped out in a hurry.

Gu Tang stepped forward to follow.

Qiu Ju knelt on the ground, raised her tearful eyes and looked at their figures, not knowing whether to follow or continue to kneel.
