Chapter 187: Hongling's Confession
Hongling was slightly stunned, listening to the story? What kind of medicine is sold in this princess Qi's gourd? But it's not so easy for her to leave, Bingyu is staring at herself coldly, hey, forget it, take one step at a time, maybe this Princess Qi is just targeting King Qi this time, not herself, it's better not to mess with herself.
Thinking of this, Hongling settled down, and then also found a place to sit down, after Bingyu stepped into the house, he closed the door with his backhand, and walked to Ling Ruoyi and stood behind.
"Bingyu, you can sit too, it will be very tiring to stand and listen to the story." Ling Ruoyi said lightly.
Hearing this, after Bingyu thanked Ling Ruoyi, he sat beside her. And Ling Ruohui unhurriedly picked up a glass of wine, sniffed it under her nose, and said slowly: "Once upon a time, there was a girl who was very loved by her parents because of her natural beauty. Later, her father fell seriously ill, but because of the poverty of the family, her father died because he had no money to see a doctor, leaving a lonely widow, which was really pitiful. Later, the tofu factory could not continue to operate, the girl and her mother went to other towns to join her uncle, but was rejected by the ruthless uncle, the girl is a stubborn person, she vowed to make money to support her mother, but she is a woman, how to make money, and then she thought of the most feasible way, is to sell herself in the Qinglou, thinking that the art is not selling, and when she has saved enough money, she will redeem herself and live a peaceful life with her mother. At this point in the story, Ling Ruoyi glanced at Hongling on the opposite side as if unintentionally, and saw her fingers clenching the handkerchief slightly, so she knew that the story had worked.
Seeing that Ling Ruohui had stopped, King Rui raised his eyes to look at Ling Ruoxuan, and then spoke, "Why didn't Yi'er talk about it?" The king is still waiting to hear the story. ”
"Hehe, it turns out that the prince likes to listen to stories so much, then good, this concubine will continue to tell."
"Okay, this king listens to you." In fact, as soon as Ling Ruohui opened his mouth, King Rui already knew that Ling Ruohui was talking about Hongling's life experience, and the reason why he wanted Ling Ruohui to continue to talk was just to know how much he knew, so he could prepare, because the Ling Ruohui he knew was too smart, maybe she was just bluffing, and this should not be done.
This girl sold herself into the most famous brothel in the city, Baihualou, in the days of Baihualou, although she lived a day of sending to sell laughter, but she believed that one day she could live a dull life, at this time, came a handsome man, this man, different from other men, because other men are thinking about how to get her body, and this man since the day he met her, he just likes her singing and dancing, and naturally likes her as a person, The man's grace and knowledge also deeply touched the poor woman. After a month together, the man told her that he had passed through the place to do business, and that he really loved her, and that he wanted to redeem her and marry her home to live with him. ”
"Hehe, the story told by the princess is good, but how can there be such a thing in the world." Hongling smiled bitterly.
"Is there anything in the world, this concubine doesn't know. Besides, the concubine said that this is just a story, and since it is a story, Miss Hongling just listens. ”
"The slave just thinks that this girl's fate is really tragic and pitiful." Hongling said sadly. How could she not know that Ling Ruoyi would tell her story again, if she begged for mercy immediately at this time, King Rui would not spare her, and now she can only endure her sadness and show her a scene, hoping to get by.
"Hehe, the poor man must have something to hate, and the concubine believes that the cycle of heaven and reason is not happy. Miss Hongling, let's continue to listen to the story of this concubine. Immediately, Ling Ruoyi picked up the teacup handed over by Bingyu, took a sip and continued to speak, "That woman didn't expect to meet Lang Jun who treated her so sincerely, so she agreed to marry him." Of course, the man also according to what he said, the big red sedan chair married her, and was married in the house where he lived temporarily, after a month, the man said that he wanted to take her back to his hometown, the woman was still looking forward to going back to live a life of fine clothes and food, but she didn't expect to return to the so-called home, what she gave was not joy but nightmares. ”
Hearing this, Hongling couldn't suppress the pain in her heart, and suddenly squatted on the ground, wrapped her arms around her, and buried her head deep in it, only to hear bursts of whining cries and shouts, "Don't say it again, don't say it again, please ...... it" Woo woo, followed by a burst of crying.
This kind of thing is enough once, she only blamed herself for entrusting the non-person, all the pain was caused by her own unwillingness, she couldn't complain about others, not because she saw through all this, but because, she had complained, but what if she complained, there was no way to change things.
Ling Ruoyi's words are right, the cycle of heavenly principles, retribution is unpleasant. If it weren't for her conceited beauty at the beginning, she thought that she could meet a good match in Qinglou and save her from the sea of suffering, how could she have ended up today. Let's ask, who really good man likes to linger in the land of fireworks.
"Miss Hongling, my young lady just told you a story again, how can you have such a big reaction when you listen to a story, I don't know, I thought you were talking about the heroine in the story." Bingyu said coldly.
Isn't the heroine in the story her Hongling? But she dared to say to Bingyu that it was me Hongling, so don't talk about it, is it really good to expose my scars like this? Can't you just give me a way to live? No, she can't say that, saying so is tantamount to admitting that she has become a traitor, not only King Rui will kill her, but King Qi will not spare herself. Even if you die, do you really have to drag your mother? The answer is no.
Since it can't be done, then I can't admit it, but I really don't want to listen to my painful experience again, although it is in the past, but whenever I mention or think of the past, my heart is torn apart by piece of pain.
"I'm ......, I'm ......, I'm a little uncomfortable, I'll listen to the story next time." Hongling got up suddenly, wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, and said lightly. After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, Bingyu's figure moved, the long sword was unsheathed, and he blocked in front of Hongling and said coldly: "Miss Hongling, the story of my young lady is not finished yet, you can't go." ”
"Why? Can the princess be reckless? I thank the princess for helping me, and I also thank the princess for helping my mother, but do I hope that the princess will really be a good person to the end and leave me a way to live? Hongling cried.
"The way to live is to come out by yourself, not given by others, you yourself are in the way of death, what qualifications do you have to ask others to save you?" Ling Ruoyi's eyes stared coldly at Hongling Dao.
This is the real effect she wants, and the story is just a guide. Fire. Suo, she naturally knew that Hongling was reluctant to mention everything in the past, because everything in the past was a shame imprinted on her body that could never be erased, and she hoped that she could forget it over time, but she was wrong, no matter how long time passed, this matter still could not be forgotten.
At this moment, Hongling suddenly turned around, looked at Ling Ruoyi and said coldly: "Since they all want me to die, then I will die for you." After finishing speaking, Hongling rushed towards the corner of the table on the side.
But how could things in the world be so wishful, just when Hongling was about to hit the corner of the table, Bing Yuyan quickly grabbed her collar and picked her up like a chicken.
"Let me die, let me die." Hongling cried with teeth and claws.
Bingyu is a person who practices martial arts, so naturally she hates this woman very much, crying, making trouble and hanging herself. The three of them watched coldly as Hongling sat on the ground crying, and after a cup of tea, everything was calm again, Ling Ruohui said lightly, "Actually, if you didn't do those things that shouldn't have been done in the first place, Concubine Ben planned to give you this inn when she left Yecheng, so that your mother and daughter could have a place to live." ”
Hearing this, Hongling looked up with surprise on her face, originally she thought that this life was the life of a part-time worker, no matter how hard she worked, no matter how hard she put in, everything was just to make a wedding dress for her. I never thought that Ling Ruoyi would give this inn to her. No, it's impossible, how can there be such a kind person in the world, all good intentions are just to get more benefits from her.
Ling Ruoxuan looked coldly at Hongling, who was sitting on the ground, and slowly spoke, "Concubine Ben knows what you're thinking. I just thought, why am I planning to give this inn to you? ”
As soon as the words came out, Hongling showed a face full of consternation, only then was she surprised, she didn't expect Ling Ruohui to actually say that she planned to give this inn to her, but the consternation at this time was because Ling Ruohui saw through her thoughts.
Hongling smiled sadly, and then said coldly, "Hmph, you are all rich and powerful people, how can you understand the predicament of us Xiaoren Shengdou, all the promises are just to use me to serve you." ”
"Hmph, it's obvious that you are unfaithful, but now you are putting the responsibility on my young lady, and my young lady is helping you so much." Bingyu reproached.
"Help me? That's right, Princess Qi saved my mother and gave us such a temporary place to live, and I should be grateful. But so what, isn't it so that I can do things for her? ”
"You ......" Bing Yu was so angry that he couldn't speak, and could only point his finger at Hongling. She has never seen such a shameless person, others have helped her, and she has never thought of letting her reciprocate, it is really difficult to be a good person, even if she helps without return, but she is bitten back, it is really chilling.
"If you don't want to do it, Concubine Ben won't force you to do it."
Hearing this, Hongling was dumbfounded for a while, she really didn't know what to say, indeed, Princess Qi discussed with her at that time, but she was bent on repaying her kindness, so she agreed. But now, it's too late, it's too late......
"So far, the slave has nothing to say, let Princess Qi dispose of it, but please let Princess Qi let my mother go." After finishing speaking, Hongling held the mentality of seeing death as home, and kowtowed to Ling Ruoyi on the ground, and then stayed there and stopped moving.
Bingyu noticed that something was not quite right, stepped forward, turned over Hongling's corpse, probed her nose with her hand, and found that she was no longer breathing......
