Chapter 361: Mutual Utilization
On the evening of the same day, the Praetorian Guard presented a fake seven-star map with Qu Tianxiong, bullied the monarch, and sealed the Qu family, and hundreds of people from all over the Qu family were locked and imprisoned, as for King Lin, because he knew no people, he was confined in the house from now on, and he completely lost the opportunity to defend and cry, but he did not plan to defend anything, Qu Tianxiong was already an outcast, not worth mentioning, the only pity is that he failed to take advantage of the matter of the seven-star map, suppressed the prince, but pit himself.
When the news reached the Shui family, just after dinner, Su Zi and Du Heng were playing under the lamp, Luo Kui was lying on the embroidery frame embroidering the travel map, this matter was planned by her, and the ending was naturally expected, but she was still frightened, her fingers were pierced by silver needles, oozing red blood beads, falling on the embroidery map, she looked at the blood stains on the embroidery map in a daze, and was speechless for a while.
Su Zi sighed: "It came so quickly, it seems that King Lin didn't want to keep Qu Tianxiong." β
"King Lin is now too busy to take care of himself, who else can he protect. Luo Kui sighed faintly.
As soon as the words fell, Lilac hurriedly came in, with a solemn expression and a somewhat difficult whisper: "Master, Qu, Qu Lian asks to see." β
Luo Kui didn't look surprised, and bowed his head calmly: "Please." β
After a while, Qu Liansu faced the sky, rushed in with her hair in a messy bun, knelt down with a "poof" at Luo Kui, and cried with a whimper while kneeling to her feet: "Luo Kui, Luo Kui, you save me, you save our Qu family, I, I beg you." β
Luo Kui's eyes were slightly cold like cold stars, and sadness climbed to his cheeks, and he twisted a silver needle in his hand, which shimmered in the candle flame, and smiled coldly: "Qu Lian, you know me, I also know you, I am not a person who will soften his heart after crying a few times, and you don't need to pretend to be pitiful, your pity can only coax Jingmo kind of person." β
Once he was poked in his heart, Qu Lianteng stood up, the tears on his face were still there, and his expression was already fierce and vicious: "It's you, it's you who set up this game, why did you calculate that I would enter the game." β
"Since you want to know, I'll let you die. Luo Kui didn't raise his head, his fingertips brushed on the embroidery frame, and he smiled lightly sarcastically: "Just because King Lin wants you to replace Qu Tianxiong, just because you want to be in charge of the power of the entire Qu family, you have to have this trick to force Qu Tianxiong to comply, so whether the secret of the Seven Star Map in my hand is true or false, you will come to take it, and you must take it." β
The tears on Qu Lian's face were half dry, and she walked straight to Luo Kui, hatred suddenly grew, and she pointed at her and said hoarsely: "You, you, you use me, you are despicable." β
Luo Kui raised his head to meet her with a pair of teary eyes, and said calmly: "I naturally took advantage of you, but how did you treat me, I just reciprocated the favor, you are despicable, I naturally have to be more despicable than you, so I have a chance of life." β
Qu Lian was stunned for a moment, her eyes were dull, and no tears flowed out, she staggered a few steps and leaned against the table, and muttered: "But I, my biological mother, my biological mother is Aunt Yue, she is your fellow senior sister, you, you, you can be so ruthless, you actually forced me to die." β
Luo Kui seemed to have heard something ridiculous, and suddenly laughed, sneering and chattering, and the laughing person was covered in white sweat: "When you killed me, did you ever think about the past and leave half a point." β
Qu Lian was stunned and took a step back.
Luo Kui continued to sneer: "In order to help the murderer of Yuegu, you actually attacked the daughter of Yuegu's teacher, Qu Lian, if Yuegu Quanxia knows, guess what she will think and what she will do." She looked cold and proud, and every word was heartfelt: "Aunt Yue is affectionate and graceful, and she dies with righteousness, but she never thought that her daughter was such an ungrateful person, pretending to be pitiful and learning to talk viciously about the old feelings, and painting a tiger is not an anti-dog, Qu Lian, how are you so naΓ―ve How to take charge of the Qu family in the future, how to assist King Lin, do you think that King Lin will take care of the old relationship with Yuegu, and will be willing to endure your unbearable usefulness, he will not, sooner or later, he will be the same as your father, and will be abandoned by King Lin. β
Qu Lian originally thought that she and Luo Kui were both women, and what Luo Kui could do, she could also do, so she took the initiative to abort the fetus, relying on the king of Shanglin, in a vain attempt to take charge of the Qu family, compete with Luo Kui, and achieve a great cause. β
Rumbling thunder sounded, a miserable white lightning broke through the void, the sky suddenly gloomed, layers of lead clouds muffled down, and in an instant the raindrops crackled on the tiles, under the eaves, on the ground, a burst of majestic, the rain was blurred.
With a "snap", Luo Kui swept the cup in his hand to the ground, picked his lips and sneered: "Never die, those things that King Lin and Qu Tianxiong did, I don't think you know very well, so today, I will talk to you and see who should fight with whom." She nodded at Su Zi slightly: "You come, tell us this big girl Qu to listen, let her know and know, what is called endless death." β
Su Zi raised his eyebrows and sneered, his peach blossom eyes hid a sorrow with excellent restraint, and said calmly: "Eighteen years ago, when the Marquis of Guan Nei led an army of 100,000 to fight with the Beigu Kingdom, Qu Tianxiong poisoned the eldest princess of Changle, and the princess died of dystocia, and Luo Kui was born with poison. Fifteen years ago, the Kitaya Kingdom invaded the northern border again, and the Marquis of Kannai led the army to fight, although it won a complete victory, but also suffered heavy casualties, only 100,000 people survived, less than 20,000, and even the deputy general at that time, that is, Jingmo's father, was also killed in this battle. But Qu Tianxiong led the Qu family to besiege and kill the soldiers who had no combat power, so that the 20,000 army only escaped less than 10,000. β
"Suzi, shut up, this can't be, it can't be. Qu Lian's voice was sharp, interrupting Su Zi's words.
"No way. Luo Kui lifted the embroidery frame in front of him, and with a bang, the embroidery surface was broken and the pattern was messy. She sneered: "You are the daughter of the Qu family, and the Qu family is in prison, and it has not affected you, but believe it or not, I have the ability to let you go to prison too, and ask Qu Tianxiong if these things are true or false." β
Qu Lian staggered, didn't dare to say another half a word, only bit her lip fiercely, and listened silently.
Su Zi paused slightly, tried his best to hold back the pain in his heart that was condensed in the past, and continued in a mournful voice: "Ten years ago, Yun Zhuan Xiang framed his father-in-law, and his father-in-law handed over his military power to protect the two families of Jingshui and stayed away from the court, but he was still besieged to death by the dead soldiers of the Qu family. Five years ago, His Royal Highness King Wu King Cha Lin embezzled tribute, military salaries, money and food and relief materials, and privately set up soldiers beyond the control system, King Lin therefore framed His Royal Highness King Wu, His Royal Highness King Wu was exiled to Yanzhou on the way, in the Eastern Fujian Kingdom was besieged and killed by the Qu family dead soldiers, Luo Kui in this battle in the sky poison attack, cultivation to waste, almost half a life. β
"No, no, you talk nonsense, you talk nonsense. Qu Lian couldn't hold back any longer, covered her ears tightly, and cried hoarsely.
"Nonsense," Su Zi grabbed Luo Kui's hand, pushed the sleeve up, revealing a snow-white arm, a little Shougong sand on the inside of the arm was bright red like blood, he wiped it with one hand, and the Shougong sand shook gently, twisting and struggling like a living thing, just a wrong eye, it turned into a pitch-black cobweb, the fine spider silk was entwined, extending in all directions, and the end of the spider silk showed a faint light gray, blending with the skin.
Su Zi said coldly: "Nonsense, this is the mark of your Qu family's unique poison, where this poison is incurred, it will be difficult to get rid of for life, you won't know it." β
On this day, Qu Lian had seen it in the Qu family ancestral hall, and when she saw it, her face was gray and she was not radiant.
Seeing this, Su Zi snorted coldly, raised his eyes and glanced at Qu Lian, and continued in a deep voice: "Two years ago, King Lin found out the details of the Jing family and ordered the Qu family to get rid of his grandfather. A year ago, Huang Xuan was ordered to investigate the corruption case in Yongzhou, and the Qu family killed Huang Xuan's mother, oh, that's right. He looked at Qu Lian's face as white as paper, and sneered: "You still don't know who Huang Xuan is, Qu Tianxiong has not yet made a career, but when he was just a businessman with a lot of wealth, he accepted the pipa Ji Huang Feng and gave birth to Huang Xuan, and then he came to Qingzhou to wander around, climbed up to Yun Jiangxiang, and abandoned Huang Feng from the beginning to the end, in the Yongzhou corruption case, he personally chased and killed Huang Xuan in order to protect himself, and forced Huang Feng to death. β
After Qu Lian learned about her biological mother Yuegu, she already hated Qu Tianxiong, and she had no father-daughter affection, but she never expected that the things behind this were complicated, everyone was his pawn, and they were all at his mercy, he was so ruthless, and her last trace of family affection for him was also annihilated, hiding her face and crying, tears flowing from her fingers: "He, when he did these things, he didn't care about our life and death." She pointed at Luo Kui with her backhand: "You are the same despicable and shameless as him, and when you do these things, you don't care about our affection at all." β
Luo Kui lowered her head and looked at the cup, her eyes were reflected in the cup, the sleepless nights of the past few nights made her eyes as bright as a cold star, now full of bloodshots, and suddenly became a pair of bloody eyes, sneering: " Yes, I am naturally the same as him, and you, when you are at odds with Jingmo, when you take away the secrets in the Seven Star Chart, aren't you just as despicable and shameless, you are not innocent and noble than us, you only need to understand one thing, the Qu family wants the lives of me and the prince, and I want the lives of King Lin and Qu Tianxiong, Qu Lian, from today on, you are the head of the Qu family, who wins and who loses, who dies and who lives, there is no old love at all. β
Qu Lian sat on the ground with a puff, turned her head, rubbed her eyes, looked back at the hand that grabbed Luo Kui, and sobbed in a weak and pitiful voice: "Luo Kui, Su Zi lied to me, he lied to me, right, you used to be so good with me, if you have such a deep hatred, how can you be like me." β
