Chapter 077: Past Life Mistake
"Xiao Yat, there are more and more people outside, it's time for us to go. Qingchen forced himself to wake up from the fact of Tianjizi's death, and turned to Xiao Yi who was not far away.
Xiao Yi squatted in front of the huge box at the base of the wall, silent, the red cloth that was originally covered on the box had already been lifted by Xiao Yi, but that corner was just blocked by Xiao Yi's body, Qingchen couldn't see what kind of box it was, and he didn't know what it contained.
Seeing that Xiao Yi didn't speak, Qingchen was slightly surprised in his heart and slowly stepped forward.
She could have left Xiao Yi behind, but now, she and Xiao Yi have been unknowingly tied together, maybe from the moment she married Xiao Yi, there was destined to be an inexplicable entanglement between them.
"I'm going to take her away. Suddenly, Qingchen heard Xiao Yi say this.
was thinking about the meaning of Xiao Yi's words, but saw Xiao Yi suddenly get up and completely uncover the red cloth on the box, revealing the whole picture of the box under the red cloth.
What shocked Qingchen was that the box she originally thought was a huge transparent crystal coffin under the red cloth, but she didn't know what material it was made of, crystal clear, and cold to the touch.
Suddenly, Mu Qingchen's heart gave birth to an indescribable feeling, a wisp of pain like a silk thread was growing in the bottom of her heart, and something seemed to be calling her in the dark, driving her closer to the crystal coffin.
One step, two steps...... Slowly approaching, Mu Qingchen gradually saw the person lying in the crystal coffin clearly.
A bright red golden silk phoenix robe was tightly attached to the body of the person in the coffin, and the head of the phoenix dance for nine days was still so dazzling after so long, and the crystal transparent coffin complemented each other, shining.
Such familiar eyebrows and eyes appeared in front of her so suddenly, it was a face she would see every time she sat in front of the mirror and made up in the mirror.
Qingchen watched quietly like this, and when she desperately told herself that she was Mu Qingchen, the princess of the jade hook, and not Ye Qingcheng, the queen of the moon, the body that originally belonged to Ye Qingcheng appeared in front of her so suddenly.
Bang –
Mu Qingchen didn't have time to say anything, but he saw Xiao Yi's aggressive palm, with enough internal force, and slashed towards the crystal coffin, the crystal coffin made a loud noise, and then clicked, and a crack cracked on his face.
"What are you doing? You're crazy-" Mu Qingchen saw that Xiao Yi was about to slap again, so he hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Xiao Yi's arm, and stopped him.
"I'm going to take her away. Xiao Yi still said this, quietly brushed Qingchen's hand away, and slapped it again.
"Ye Tingcheng has been dead for so long, it is all up to this crystal coffin to keep her body intact, if you break this crystal coffin, Ye Tingcheng's body will not be saved. Mu Qingchen shouted loudly.
She looked at Xiao Yi, who seemed to have lost her mind in front of her, and seemed to understand something in her ignorance, but the reality did not allow her to ponder it carefully, because the movement outside was getting bigger and bigger, and the people who could be mobilized in the palace were only afraid that they had already arrived at Longchen Palace at this moment, and if they went out later, the more likely they would be besieged.
Sure enough, Xiao Yi listened to Mu Qingchen's words, the movements in his hands paused, and he slowly approached the crystal coffin, gently stroked Ye Qingcheng's face through the coffin, and then clenched his hands into fists, his eyes full of struggle.
"I looked for her for a long time, but I didn't expect that the royal brother would put her here. Xiao Yi said, as if he was talking to Qingchen, but it seemed to be talking to himself.
Mu Qingchen didn't make a sound, she just looked at Xiao Yi, looking at the pain in Xiao Yi's eyes, which shocked her.
No wonder......
No wonder Xiao Yi wants to find Ye Tingcheng's body, no wonder Xiao Yi wants to find the truth about the Ye family's crime, no wonder Xiao Yi is willing to take such a big risk to collect the bones for the Ye family......
It's because of her, because of Ye Chengcheng.
"You can't take her away, if you don't want her to stay here, you just destroy the crystal coffin and destroy her body!" Mu Qingchen suddenly closed his eyes, spoke coldly, and when he opened his eyes again, the pain in his eyes had been completely covered by her.
"The Ye family changed dramatically that day, I didn't have time to save her, I didn't expect it to be ...... today I can't even take her away......" Xiao Yi whispered helplessly.
"Xiao Yi, she is dead, but you are still alive, if you don't leave, you can only stay here to bury her. Mu Qingchen took a deep breath, "You think clearly, whether a dead person is more important than your life." ”
used to be infatuated, only in exchange for endless use and deception, but now that she has lived a new life, Qingchen no longer believes in the so-called sincerity, even Feng Xiran, she can only be moved and guilty, not to mention Xiao Yi, who is also a child of the royal family?
Swallowing all the truth that had slipped into her mouth, Mu Qingchen chose to hide it again, what if she knew that Xiao Yi was concerned about Ye Qingcheng? Now that she is no longer easily believed.
"She's just as important as my life, she's just as important as mine. I have already been poisoned in my body, if it weren't for her and my father, what would I have loved?" Xiao Yi smiled bitterly, "You're right, if you don't want her to stay here, her soul can't rest in peace, so you can only destroy this crystal coffin and set her free." ”
The moment Xiao Yi's words fell, he didn't hesitate anymore, his palms pushed out, and with a strong internal force, he struck towards the crystal coffin.
Mu Qingchen listened to Xiao Yi's words, the pain in his heart became more and more dense, watching the cracks on the crystal coffin getting bigger and bigger, watching Ye Tingcheng's body exposed to the air, and watching Ye Tingcheng's originally intact face slightly decay the moment he touched the air, his heart suddenly suffocated.
She is not Xiao Yi, I don't know what it feels like for him to destroy the body of his sweetheart with his own hands, but she feels the irrepressible grief and despair in Xiao Yi's body, just like the despair from the bottom of her heart when she heard that Xiao Ling ordered the killing of the Ye family in Longchen Palace.
Because she heard Xiao Yat say: She is more important than my life, she is just as important as my life. So it's not that he doesn't really want to live, he just ...... Lost something as important as his life.
Xiao Yi, why didn't Ye Chengcheng meet you back then? Why didn't I meet you back then?
"Let's go!" Mu Qingchen sighed, it was a given fact that Ye Qingcheng's body was destroyed, she didn't say anything more, pulled Xiao Yi, and walked towards the gate of the stone room.
At the moment when they walked out of the stone room, Mu Qingchen suddenly turned around, and two silver needles shot out from his fingertips, nailed straight to the remaining crystal coffin, glowing with a faint blue light, mysterious.
Although she is no longer Ye Chengcheng, this is the only thing she can do for Xiao Yi, because she owes Xiao Yi for this. She once killed Commander Meng with a silver needle, and when Xiao Ling saw the silver needle, she must have thought that Ye Chengcheng's body was destroyed by her, and she would never suspect Xiao Yi's body.
The two of them walked out of the secret room, and the wall behind the dragon chair returned to its original state, as if no one had ever come, without the slightest abnormality, but I don't know how Xiao Ling would feel when he came back and saw that the secret room of Longchen Palace had changed.
"I'll go out and lead them away, and you go first. Xiao Yi had already returned to normal, and as he spoke, he turned around and walked towards the door.
"Xiao Yi......" Mu Qingchen's heart tightened, frowned, looked at Xiao Yi's back, and stopped talking.
"What's the matter? The princess is worried about the king? If she is really worried, when she returns to the palace, the princess will wash her hands and make soup and make a delicious meal for the king, how about it?" Xiao Yi turned around and looked at Mu Qingchen, the familiar ruffian smile hanging on the corner of his mouth again.
Qingchen didn't have time to say anything, but when he saw Xiao Yi's toes lightly, a few jumps out, and he jumped out of the main hall of Longchen Palace, obviously he could leave unnoticed, but he still deliberately slowed down his body and was noticed by Zhang Jing.
"Hurry up—the assassin who trespassed into the Longchen Palace is there—chase!" Zhang Jing gave an order, and the forbidden troops up and down the palace took action one after another, chasing in the direction that Xiao Yi left.
Mu Qingchen saw that the guards at the gate of Longchen Palace were almost gone, so he left Longchen Palace, glanced in the direction where Xiao Yi left, and walked out of the palace without a trace and returned to King Yi's mansion.
"Princess, you can come back—" As soon as Jin Yan saw Qingchen, she immediately greeted her and whispered in her ear, "Aunt Qiu seems to be suspicious and has made excuses to come several times. ”
"What's the situation?" Qingchen asked with a frown.
"The slave didn't know, but Aunt Qiu said that the princess had just recovered from a serious illness and was left to be served, so she had to come in, and she was deceived by Shuyu Lian, and this time she was decocting medicine for the princess in the kitchen with Huai Jin. Jin Yan said, quickly waiting for Qingchen to change out of his night clothes and put on his bedclothes.
"The princess is back, and the slave's lungs are about to cough out. Hold Yu lifted the curtain of the bed, got up from the dusty bed, and patted himself in front of him, allowing himself to breathe a sigh of relief.
"You're pretending I'm coughing while lying on the bed, and you're pretending to be serving me?" Qingchen understood.
"Fortunately, the slave is clever, Jinyan cooperates well, and Sister Huaijin also came over when she heard the movement, otherwise she would really not be fooled. Zhan Yu said, "Princess, does this Aunt Qiu know something, so she wants to come to hear the news tonight while the princess is away?"
"It's okay, even if she suspects something, there is no evidence, if you are really afraid that she will ruin our business, then slowly think of a way to get rid of her. ”
Qingchen said, hearing the footsteps outside, he quickly lay on the bed, and at the moment when Aunt Qiu pushed the door in, she pierced the acupuncture point with the silver needle in her hand, and scarlet blood overflowed from her mouth, making her look very weak after coughing for a long time.
"Princess, are you alright-" Jiyu also reacted quickly, and exclaimed for a while, attracting the attention of Aunt Qiu and Huai Jin.
The two opened the curtain and walked in, but saw Ju Yu sitting on the edge of the bed, helping Qingchen, and Qingchen was pale, leaning on Ju Yu's body weakly, and when he saw Aunt Qiu and Huai Jin, he endured it again and coughed a few times.
"Let you decoct the medicine, is it really so long? The princess has been coughing for half a night. Jin Yan said to Huai Jin as if complaining, took the medicine bowl from her hand, and waited for Qingchen to take the medicine.
Aunt Qiu looked at the scene in front of her and felt that everything was logical and not suspicious, but she always felt that something was wrong, but she didn't know what was wrong.
