Chapter 65, The Truth
Looking at the person in her arms, Pear Blossom mentioned to her about Ah Yue with rain, and she really recalled: Ah Yue...... She remembered that she arranged to take care of Ruan Qing by Ruan Qing's side.
"Grandmother, Aunt Ah Yue told me that I am your granddaughter."
"You're lying!" Xiuniang stepped forward and pulled the woman out of the arms of the old lady of the country, "Ah Yue will never tell you this." ”
Chu Xu had noticed from just now why the figure of this "show girl" was so familiar.
"You are the subordinate next to her, what do you know, Aunt Ah Yue told me personally, saying that I am the real Chu Luan!" The woman was a little angry.
"Old lady, Master Hou, I haven't seen you for a long time, the old slave is here to greet you."
The voice is more familiar. Chu Xu was still a little unsure. But the old lady of the Duke of Guo is sure that the "Xiuniang" in front of her is Ah Yue.
"Ah Yue, is it really you?" The old lady of Guogong was pleasantly surprised with a hint of complaint, "Are you still alive?" ”
Chu Xu: "Ah Yue? Since you have returned to the capital, why don't you come to see me? ”
"Old lady, Master Hou, Ah Yue is sorry for you. It was I who didn't protect my wife back then. ”
Speaking of Ruan Qing, Mrs. Guogong still had a lot of questions to ask her, but was interrupted by Chu Luan: "Wait a minute, Xiuniang, what do they call you?" Ah Yue? Isn't your real name Ah Xiu? How can it be called Ah Yue? Chu Luan looked incredulous, since she was a child, Xiuniang was the best person for her, she didn't believe that Xiuniang would lie to her, and she deceived her for eleven years.
Xiuniang knew that Chu Luan would definitely not be able to accept it for a while, so she wanted to explain to her: "Girl, I deceived you, I am indeed Madame's dowry maid, Ah Yue." ”
At this moment, Chu Luan only felt that her world was collapsing at the fastest speed like a melting snow-capped mountain.
How can it be? Why did Xiuniang suddenly become Ah Yue? How could she be Ah Yue? For so many years, she has been trying to get close to herself, what is it for being good to her? The more he thought about Chu Luan, the more he felt cold all over his body.
"After my wife died, as her dowry, I planned to go with her. But I know that the girl is still alive, that is the only blood of the lady, and I must accompany her and keep her safe and grown. She called me Xiuniang, and in my heart, I had already regarded her as half of my daughter. ”
So, all the good things for her for so many years are because she is Ruan Qing's daughter? If she wasn't Ruan Qing's daughter, then she wouldn't be taken care of and favored by Xiuniang, would she?
Chu Xu didn't think about it so much, but asked about Ruan Qing's murder back then, "You were robbed with Qing'er back then, do you know who killed her?" ”
Hearing what happened back then, Xiuniang almost reflexively refused to answer: "I can't say!" ”
"Why......" Chu Xu was interrupted again by Chu Luan before he could ask the reason: "So, you know the truth of the year!" Her tone was firm, not only Chu Xu and Mrs. Guogong at this time, but everyone present had a change in expression.
Xiuniang was full of apologies: "Girl......"
"You know the truth back then, why do you want to hide it?" Chu Luan's eyes were sharp, and no one was allowed to lie under her nose.
"Before my wife died, I promised her that I would never tell the truth of that day, because once the truth was made public, it would involve a wide range of people. Both the Zhenbei Houfu and the Guogong Mansion will be in trouble, so ...... I had to hide it. Even now, Xiuniang has no intention of telling the truth.
Hearing the answer, Chu Luan couldn't help laughing, and then became angry in front of everyone, "It's for Zhenbei Houfu again, and it's for them!" She was so excited that she spoke a little bit.
"Girl, I know I'm sorry for you, but when I came here today, I already thought that there would be such a result. Don't be angry first, you are not in good health, I am willing to accept all punishments, as long as you ......" Xiuniang wanted to step forward and pull Chu Luan's hand.
But at the moment when she was about to touch Chu Luan's sleeve, she ruthlessly waved it away, "Don't touch me!" ”
Seeing that Chu Luan was about to lose his honor in the palace, Xuan Jun wanted to try to make her sober up, but who knew that the current Chu Luan was already a lit cannonball, and others couldn't stand it.
"You're all liars, you're all lying to me." Then, I saw her rush forward in two steps and grab Xiuniang's clothes, which really scared everyone, for fear that she would hurt people in front of the saint.
Ruan Qianyan: "Lord Zhaoyue, calm down. ”
Chu Xu: "Ah Luan." ”
Qin Hai: "Ah Luan, what are you doing!" That's a showgirl. ”
Yes, she is a show girl, the show girl who has always loved her and favored her. But why doesn't she feel like she knows Xiuniang anymore?
"When I was in Jiangnan, we were a group of sisters, you were the best to me, and everyone said that you were partial to me. I also thought that you regarded me as your own because you had no children and no daughters, and you took pity on me for my rough life. Who would have thought that all this you did was just because I was Ruan Qing's daughter. You are really loyal, you know the truth back then, why didn't you tell it, why did you deceive me, you kept saying that you would take care of me, and the result! You concealed the truth, stayed by my side with all your heart, watched me be misunderstood for more than ten years, and wronged me for more than ten years, and you took care of me like this! ”
"Girl......"
"You are all good, you are all great! You are thinking about the safety of the Houfu in the north of the town, and the wealth and glory of the Guogong Mansion, but in the end, I am the only one who broke my teeth and swallowed blood! You watched me grow up, and you know best how I've spent all my years. I say I don't care about any gossip, do I really not care? Do you have a heart or not? Chu Luan pushed Xiuniang away, she was old, even if Chu Luan had already collected her strength, she was still forced to stumble a few steps, fortunately, there was Ruan Qianyan behind her to help her.
Wei Li saw that Chu Luan's emotions were out of control, and he didn't care about etiquette, so he stepped forward and grabbed her wrist and persuaded her to calm down.
Chu Luan lightly swept over the people in front of him, only to feel that his heart was depressed, and suddenly, his eyes were dark, he turned his head away, and vomited a mouthful of blood.
Rao is Wei Li, also panicked at the moment: "Miss Chu! ”
Chu Xu/Qin Hai/Xuan Jun: "Ah Luan! ”
Murong Jin: "Someone! Pass on the Imperial Doctor! ”
Vomiting a mouthful of blood, Chu Luan felt a little more comfortable in his chest, and when he regained clarity in front of him, he saw her break free from the shackles of Wei Li and salute the Son of Heaven in the high hall: "Chu Luan lost his honor in front of the palace, I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins and allow Chu Luan to return home." ”
"Zhaoyue, you ...... now? Let's see the doctor first. Murong Chuyao was a little worried.
Chu Luan saluted again, and his voice was raised a little: "I hope Your Majesty will allow Chu Luan to return home!" ”
Looking at her stubborn appearance, Murong Chuyao looked at Chu Xu, who nodded at him, and then he ordered Zhaoqing to prepare a sedan chair to send her back to the house, but Chu Luan refused, "Don't bother Father-in-law Qing, Chu Luan can go back by himself." After speaking, he closed his eyes tightly and turned away without mercy, and at this time, the two lines of tears that were sour at the corners of his eyes slipped down.
——
When she was in the main hall just now, the wound on Chu Luan's back had already cracked, and now she had no strength, and she walked slower than when she entered the palace.
Seeing that he was about to reach the gate of the palace, he was stopped on the way.
Chu Luan struggled to raise his eyes to see that it was Alchi and his subordinate Amuhan.
Chu Luan really didn't have the energy to entangle with him today, and he felt that he had trouble even speaking, and every time he said a word, he felt that his throat was torn and hurt.
"Get out of the way."
Alchi tilted his head and smiled, the two of them got out of the way, and Chu Luan was about to leave the palace after passing the two.
Al Chi's disgusting voice like a fly sounded behind him again: "Chu Luan, look at your current appearance, it's not an exaggeration to say that you are a lost dog." As he spoke, he hit Amuhan beside him with his elbow again, "Fortunately, you left her early and joined my subordinates, otherwise how would you have a good life today?" ”
Chu Luan had already suffered too many blows today and was exhausted. But Alchi still didn't intend to let her go, and decided to give her the most fatal blow.
She looked at the masked Amuhan, and felt more and more familiar, but she just couldn't remember it.
Alchi reminded "kindly" on the side, "Ah Lan, after seeing your former master, don't you have anything to say?" ”
Chu Luan: !!
Amuhan secretly said that Alchi was ruthless enough, and he always hurt people so directly and with a fatal knife.
I saw Amuhan gradually take off the mask on his face, nodded to Alchi, and said, "Wang, I am no longer Alan, you have forgotten that I am your subordinate, Amuhan." ”
Chu Luan was no longer able to describe how she felt at the moment. One or two people around her deceived her and betrayed her. No wonder after Wei Wei's death, she couldn't find Ah Lan. She wished that Ah Lan was dead, so it would be better than betraying her and turning to her sworn enemy, Al Chi.
Even if he was angry in his heart, Chu Luan couldn't raise his strength, whatever. She turned to leave.
Alchi spoke again: "Amuhan, don't you explain to her the real reason why you have taken refuge in me? ”
Chu Luan did not stop.
Amuhan didn't want to say it, but he also had to obey the order, so he could only pretend to joke with Alchi, "The reason, there's nothing to say. Bad luck! ”
Vertical arrogance!
Chu Luan's resentment gradually deepened.
"Back then, Brother Wei and I worked hard for Xuan Jun. As a result, it was not enough for him to kill Brother Wei, and he wanted to kill me, how dare I follow such a master. ”
"Nonsense!" Chu Luan didn't hold her breath after all, she has always protected her shortcomings, how could she allow a traitor to slander Xuan Jun in front of her.
"Eh, girl, I'm not talking nonsense." Amuhan was still smiling just now, and now he became serious.
"After so many years, hasn't the girl thought that with Brother Wei's martial arts, not to mention just four killers, even ten are not necessarily his opponents, but why did he still end up with the same fate? Because he knew that he had to die! ”
No way! No way! Wei Wei's ...... It's because of her, it's she who dragged Wei Wei down, and ...... The killers of the Alchi faction are too vicious, and none of this has anything to do with the teacher. Chu Luan kept reminding himself in his heart, and at the same time, he was eager to hear Amuhan's answer.
"Before he came to find the girl, the national teacher sent the jade slave son-in-law to marry him. But because you are gone, he begged the jade slave to give him a little time, and after ensuring your safety, he will apologize with death. All this was arranged by the national teacher! Amuhan said.
Chu Luan shouted at the top of his voice: "Lie!" A traitor, why should I believe you! ”
Seeing that Chu Luan, who was calm and intelligent in the past, has now learned to deceive herself, Amu Han actually has a little pleasure, this is the price she paid for killing Brother Wei. Becoming self-conscious and stubborn, "Does the girl believe me, or does she not dare to believe me?" The girl is so smart, can't she really tell the truth from the falsehood of what I say? ”
"Impossible, impossible!"
Seeing Chu Luan's current mad appearance, Al Chi also felt funny, "Chu Luan, you are a very smart person, but you are too confused to live." You want to avenge that guard so much, so how do you go to Hyun Jun for revenge? He is your teacher, in your heart, is it more important to raise you as a teacher, or is it more important to protect your sweetheart with your life? ”
"Nonsense! The person who killed Wei Wei was clearly you! Chu Luan made the last struggle.
"I didn't want to kill him, the purpose of the group I sent was only you, and it was entirely his own choice that he would die, and he chose to obey orders." Alchi suddenly remembered an interesting thing, "You said - did he think about you before he died?" Or...... Has I ever hated you? ”
This time, Chu Luan couldn't hold on any longer, regardless of the injury on his back, and regardless of the increasingly painful heart, he ran straight out of the palace.
Alchi looked at Chu Luan's stumbling figure, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he snorted coldly, "Amuhan, your trick is really good, it is more effective than throwing her into the wolf cave, even if it is a divine bird?" In the end, it's not about people wearing anklets, trapped in a golden cage, and being played around. ”
——
Along the way, Chu Luan endured the pain and ran wildly in the direction of the National Teacher's Mansion with tears.
A muffled thunder sounded, and it should be about to rain. She remembered that before returning to the capital, Wei Li had mentioned to her that she had known that she would encounter these things after she came back, and she would rather not leave Cangshan Temple with Wei Li.
Whether it's self-deception or cowardice, I don't care. She was in so much pain that it was as weak as if all the blood and bones in her body had been drained.
The two people she believes in so much, one is Xiuniang and the other is Xuanjun, but they are the executioners who invisibly hurt her the most.
The heavy rain was pouring down, and Chu Luan rushed to the gate of the National Teacher's Mansion in a moment before the heavy rain and avoided the biting rain. Looking at the red walls and green tiles, Chu Luan, a noble plaque in the high gate, suddenly lost the courage to go in.
Why are you going in at this point? Find Yunu, and then ask her if Wei Wei's death is related to her, is it Wei Wei who was forced to death by the teacher? Why bother, what can she get by turning against her closest people for something that has long been a foregone conclusion? But if she doesn't go, how can she seek justice for Wei Wei? Chu Luan's mind was confused, but she had to choose between Xuan Jun and Wei Wei.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and Chu Luan retreated in the thunder to accept the judgment of the wind and rain. It was as if she was in the clouds, and she felt that everything that happened today was extremely unreal, but it was like falling into an ice cave, and the pain in her heart forced her to wake up.
Chu Luan looked at the National Teacher's Mansion in front of him, and for the first time felt that it was a barrier, isolating himself and Xuan Jun from their state of mind.
"Wei Wei, you turned your back on me back then, this time, you should pay me back." Chu Luan laughed at himself and turned around and walked into the deeper wind and rain.
