Chapter 46: Return of the Remains
Jian Xin, who was in the welcoming procession, saw this scene and hurriedly waved her hand and shouted "Ahh
The scream caused Xiao Qingyan to turn her head, and then she saw that Lu Ying beside her mother was being chased by the guards of the eldest princess's mansion, her life was hanging by a thread, and the blood on Lu Ying's face made her heart beat wildly.
didn't have time to think too much, the crossbow arrow in Xiao Qingyan's sleeve had already shot towards the guard.
The long sword in the guard's hand didn't have time to be thrown, and he was killed by an arrow.
Lu Ying didn't hear anything about everything around her, she desperately rushed to Xiao Qingyan and knelt down, and finally couldn't help but burst out of her eyes with tears.
"Young master, madam, she ...... Go! β
Midori slammed her forehead to the ground.
"It's a slave and a maid who is useless! Failed to protect Madame! The slave is guilty! β
Xiao Qingyan's eyelashes trembled, she stared blankly at Lu Ying, who was kneeling in front of her and crying, her mind was a mess, and she had a vague idea, but she didn't dare to capture it.
Zhou Shu reacted first and picked up Lu Ying: "Lu Ying, what did you say?" Don't cry first, make it clear, what's wrong with her, madam? β
"Madame, she, she's dead!"
Lu Ying burst into tears and looked at Xiao Qingyan earnestly.
"Young master, madam, she doesn't want to involve you to be coerced by others to be so determined, you must not live up to her wishes, otherwise she will not be at peace in the spirit of heaven!"
The eldest princess of Nanyang shouted angrily: "Presumptuous! What are you talking nonsense, girl? Come on, drag this crazy girl who ran out of nowhere! β
"Eldest Princess!" Xiao Qingyan suddenly shouted angrily like a fierce beast that had woken up, his eyes were cold, "Lang Lang Qiankun, even if it is His Majesty the Emperor, we have to uphold the laws of the Great Jin, and our Xiao family's descendants will not work for others to deal with it!" β
She ignored the eldest princess of Nanyang and held Lu Ying, unconsciously using force in her hands, but her ten fingers were trembling uncontrollably.
Her heart was beating wildly, and her face was pale: "Lu Ying, don't be afraid, make it clear, what's wrong with her mother and her?" β
"The lady has been locked up in the princess's mansion for the past two days, yesterday the eldest princess came to see the lady, and told the lady that you are going to marry the lord of Changle today, and then the lady has not spoken, and at night, the lady asked the slave and maid to retreat, but this morning the slave and maid went to serve the lady, and found that the lady has ......"
The scorching sun was scorching, but Xiao Qingyan only felt that a cold breath pierced her bones and blood, making her cold and overwhelmed.
How could a resilient and proud person like her mother give up her life like this?
"Last night the slave heard Madame say...... My hope is the sun and the moon that transcend the nine heavens......"
Xiao Qingyan's nose was sour, and the sun pierced her eyes white, but Lu Ying's voice was in her ears, and in a trance, it seemed to have become her mother's gentle voice.
"My Xihe is the sun and moon above the nine heavens, the clouds and phoenixes soaring in the sky, I can't let people pull her into the quagmire from the nine heavens."
Xiao Qingyan closed her eyes, tears rolled down her cheeks, and the tip of her heart was like thousands of steel knives churning and grinding, and the blood was dripping, and she was trembling all over her body in pain.
Yes, the mother reveres life and cherishes life, and in the face of the death of her favorite husband and son one after another, she was strong and did not fall, even if she deceived the whole world, she had to create a chance for her daughter to break through the shackles of the world.
She will not give up her life easily, but she values her daughter's life far more than her own life.
Once Xiao Qingyan becomes the son-in-law of the eldest princess of Nanyang, no matter what helpless reasons she has, this will be a stain that she will never be able to take off.
The mother didn't want to see her proud daughter being pulled closer to the quagmire by someone else's shameless conspiracy, she would rather drown herself in the quagmire and use her body to pave the way for her daughter than let the corners of Xiao Qingyan's clothes be stained with a little filth.
Xiao Qingyan's throat was so bitter that he wanted to gag.
She bit her lip tightly, and the smell of blood quickly diffused between her lips and teeth.
She hates killing, hates the smell of blood, but after coming to this world, there has never been a time like now, she just wants to chop Nanyang with her own hands, tear her flesh and blood, crush her bones and ashes, and let her also taste the pain of losing her flesh and blood!
Nanyang didn't know how many people's blood was on her hands, and she couldn't count them, but when she saw Xiao Qingyan's scarlet eyes, she couldn't help but feel a trace of fear.
This Xiao Qingyan is not a general who thirsts for blood on the battlefield of a hundred battles, how can there be such a thick and terrifying evil aura on his body?
Xiao Qingyan clenched his teeth and broke his palm.
The revenge of killing her mother is not shared, and she will definitely pay for this blood debt.
But she can't do it here!
Bear with me! Be sure to endure!
We must not let down my mother's intention to protect each other with death, and we must not let myself be stained with a little dirt in front of others!
She tried her best to hold back her tears, biting out the blood from the roots of her teeth, and finally suppressing the anger that was about to explode in her chest.
Xiao Qingyan turned around, and the red-robed hunt was like a blood flower.
"My mother died tragically in the princess's mansion, filial piety is greater than the sky, please forgive Xiao Qingyan for not being able to marry the county lord through the door, so that my mother's spirit in the sky will not be at peace!"
Xiao Qingyan's words were sonorous, and his phoenix eyes were scarlet.
With every word she spoke, she could taste her own blood.
She paused word by word, and withheld the monstrous hatred: "Please return the bones of her mother and let her be buried in peace!" β
There were pairs of eyes staring at the eldest princess of Nanyang, many of these people had been oppressed by the princess's mansion, and they could also empathize at this time, and their eyes looking at Nanyang were also full of anger.
Nanyang felt as if he was on fire.
But how can she bow her head in front of these lowly commoners? She can't bow her head to the Xiao family.
"Joke! How could your mother's bones end up here with Princess Ben? β
At this time, he didn't admit it.
But the truth has long been clear in people's hearts, Xiao Qingyan disdains to argue fearlessly with her, she only wants to take her mother home now, and it is an insult to her mother to let her mother stay here for a while!
Xiao Qingyan insisted again: "Please return the bones of the eldest princess!" β
The people of the Xiao family who came to greet their relatives knelt down together and shouted: "Please return the bones of the eldest princess!" β
"Youβare you going to rebel?"
Nanyang has only suffered such embarrassment twice in his life, once when he was rejected by Xiao Yu'an, and once now.
She's the princess of Dajin! She is the sister of the emperor of the dynasty!
Shen Ji didn't know when he came to Nanyang's side, he glanced at the fake Changle County Lord, his eyes flashed, and he whispered: "Princess, didn't Changle find it?" β
Nanyang glared at him, if he hadn't done enough to let that servant girl run out, how could he be like this?
Shen Ji was timid in his heart, but he still said: "Princess, I'm thinking, Changle had obviously agreed before, but he suddenly disappeared today, is it possible to ......?"
Nanyang was impatient: "What exactly do you want to say?" β
Shen Ji was annoyed in his heart, but his face was not obvious: "Princess, do you say that Changle will be in the hands of this Xiao Qingyan?" He was unwilling to marry Changle, so he let Changle be robbed? β
