Chapter 102: You're Not Alone, You Never Have Been
And at the moment, the atmosphere in the room is a little strange.
Although Song Mingjing was surprised by the sudden change and murderous intention, he calmed down in an instant, as if everything was expected.
"Girl, but it's about old friends."
"Old friends? Do you deserve to be called their friend? ”
As soon as these words came out, Song Mingjing understood, sighed, and then closed his eyes.
"In this case, please do it, girl, everything is what I deserve."
The enemy was close in front of him, Shi Qinghuan's hand holding the dagger slowly tightened, the cold light under his eyes flashed, and as the dagger slid down, the curtain on one side of the bed was cut alive.
Song Mingjing opened his eyes in surprise and looked at Shi Qinghuan.
Shi Qinghuan's face was cold, "It's not that I won't kill you, I just listened to two words, and temporarily believe that you may have a hidden secret, I want to know the truth back then." ”
In the information she learned, Song Mingjing was one of the witnesses who testified against the guilt of the Protector Mansion.
Although she had never seen Song Mingjing, she had heard it from her senior brother.
The two are friends at first sight, but one is determined to be on the battlefield and the other is committed to the people.
At that time, she didn't know that what her senior brother was talking about was Song Mingjing.
I just admire Song Mingjing's integrity.
But the most ridiculous thing is that in the later evidence, he became the most critical existence.
Because of his integrity and his innocent family background that does not belong to any force, his words become extremely credible.
After being reborn, she got his portrait and name from Shi Miaotong, but because he didn't belong to the current Cheng Yangfeng's forces, she was last in line, and she didn't pay too much attention to it, so that she didn't recognize him just now and saved him!
Looking at the complicated look in Shi Qinghuan's eyes, Song Mingjing's eyes were full of guilt and helplessness, and finally sighed, "You kill me, ten years ago, I did frame the Protector Mansion, causing irreparable consequences, I am a damned person, it is enough to survive so far, but..."
Song Mingjing pointed to a brocade box on the bookcase not far away, "After the girl killed me, please bring the contents of this brocade box to Kyoto, this is my last atonement, I should have gone by myself, but I'm afraid I don't have the qualifications and opportunities." ”
Shi Qinghuan looked back at the bookcase, and the brocade box was placed in the corner.
But her eyes fell on the bookshelves behind her and the folds on the table.
His brows furrowed slightly, "Let me ask you, did you build the ancestral hall of the Protector Mansion?" ”
"Yes."
"Why did you build it, is it because you feel guilty in your heart and are afraid of the revenge of the undead?"
"Yes, I feel ashamed in my heart, but I hope that the loyal soul of the Protector Mansion will come to me every day to ask for my life, but I also really want the people to do what they think is right in their hearts, and it is the sincere wish of the people to sacrifice to them."
"And what about your exploits? Is it just a fame and reputation, in order to cover up the original shamelessness? ”
"I only hate, and I can't do anything more, atonement for my sins."
Song Mingjing's every sentence was not justified, just confession and atonement.
Shi Qinghuan looked at him, "I'll ask again one last time, why did you commit perjury back then?" ”
Song Mingjing's eyes were full of sorrow, and his eyes were red.
"Poof..."
Before he could answer, a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The excessive emotion caused the blood and qi to surge, and instantly made him fall to the ground and faint.
Shi Qinghuan was stunned in place, and after a moment, he turned around and walked towards the bookcase.
The dagger opened the brocade box, and there was no mechanism to calculate, and there were only a lot of epistolary files left in it.
Shi Qinghuan opened, his eyes moving slightly.
What is recorded in it, in addition to some evidence that Song Mingjing has found in the past ten years to prove the innocence of the Protectorate Mansion, there are also letters that he deliberately used to Cheng Yangfeng.
It was also in these that she found the reason why Song Mingjing committed perjury back then.
It is for the lives of the entire people who moved to the city.
Ten years ago, Qiancheng was hit by drought and flood, and there was no harvest and serious illness.
The disaster relief silver grain was delayed, and Song Mingjing only went to Beijing.
This is where it all began.
When he won the imperial examination, he had a good relationship with his senior brother, so he was used as a bargaining chip by Cheng Yangfeng.
threatened to move the people of the city, and used disaster relief silver and grain as bait, so Song Mingjing was forced to compromise.
The moment Shi Qinghuan covered the brocade box, the whole person trembled.
The dagger in his hand was held tightly, tightened and loosened.
His red eyes were full of confusion.
Eventually, she pushed open the door and walked out.
The moment the figure came out, Baili Huan's brows were furrowed.
gave Zhang Yue a look, and quietly followed behind Shi Qinghuan.
Shi Qinghuan didn't say a word, and just left the general judgment mansion like this.
It's like wandering aimlessly through the streets.
The bustle and prosperity enveloped her, and laughter echoed in her ears.
As she listened, she no longer had the joy she had before, but now she felt a different kind of sadness and ridiculousness.
On the one hand, the city is full of prosperity and beauty.
On one side is the Protectorate Mansion full of dry bones, and the other is loess.
Shi Qinghuan only felt that his heart was in a mess, and he couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't open it.
She didn't know how long she had been gone.
I only know that from lively to silent, the cool breeze was blowing, and finally the moonlight was cold, and she also arrived at the city gate.
Looking at the high city wall, Shi Qinghuan stopped.
The moment he turned around, there was no word, and the figure that had been following behind him had already stepped forward, reached out and grabbed her waist, and flew up the city wall with her.
As soon as the guard stepped forward, as soon as the Baili truss token came out, the people who came were so frightened that they knelt down.
After three or two sentences, only the two of them were left around.
Shi Qinghuan turned his head and looked at the lights of the ten thousand homes in the city, the stars in his eyes were mixed with tears, and then slipped down in the cold wind.
"You know that, don't you? What you call the hidden truth. ”
It was because of her trust in him that she decided to give Song Mingjing the opportunity to explain.
Baili Juan looked at her, his eyes full of distress, "Yes, I know." ”
"Then why didn't you stop me, or choose, not to let me know?"
"Why should I stop you?"
"Song Mingjing is a well-known good official, and he was forced to be helpless about what happened back then."
"So what? He still does the wrong thing, and as I said, I don't deceive each other, you should know everything, and you should have the right to make all decisions. ”
Baili Huan said, looking at Shi Qinghuan seriously, "I also hesitated, but in the end, I still want everything to be decided by yourself, even if I just reminded you not for him, but for you, I understand your heart, and I am afraid that you will regret it after you are impulsive." ”
Baili Truss's words are very simple and straightforward.
Shi Qinghuan looked at him, and there was a trace of warmth in his cold heart.
He knows her and respects her, and that's the best.
But how can she do it?
Shi Qinghuan lowered his head, and the whole person stood in the cool breeze, leaving only loneliness and sadness.
Baili Huan looked at her, the position of his heart throbbed, and in the end, he couldn't restrain it anymore.
The moment he took off his cloak and wrapped around her, he reached out and took her into his arms.
His arms wrapped around her, trying to dispel the chill around her.
Shi Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, and then Baili Huan's voice came gently.
"You're not alone, never have been."
"You can choose to trust me, be completely trusted, and feel free to do whatever you want, and the rest, everything is with me!"
Every word, falling in Shi Qinghuan's ears, drove the inner shock.
The support in the cold is the hottest.
The moment the tears fell, Shi Qinghuan shrank into Baili Huan's arms.
She wanted to rely on the heat, if only for a moment.
