Chapter 10: Killing and Death
Yun Yi didn't take Tears away as soon as possible, even though Tears herself wanted to go back, but considering that there was still a concubine, Yun Yi had to let her endure it for a while, so as not to startle the snake.
Before leaving, Tears only left Yun Yi with one last sentence: "For those who don't want to go back, your arrival is to turn all your dreams into nightmares." ”
As soon as the tears left, there was no more news, Yun Yi asked Liu Er to investigate, I heard that she was sick again, and now she can only recuperate in the house all day long, and she can't be disturbed.
Yun Yi breathed a sigh of relief, if Tear was hurt by the concubine because she let Tear go back, this would be her mistake, it would be better to let her go back directly.
It's a pity that she was relieved too early, and the concubine didn't do anything to the tears, but she made a direct move to Yun Yi. Maybe it was something that Tear said to the concubine after she returned, or maybe the concubine herself noticed something, and she began to be impatient and crazy.
The day after seeing the prince and successfully passing his perfunctory past, Yun Yi suddenly smelled a strange smell during the meal, which made the hairs on her body stand up, and she directly threw down the chopsticks and asked Liu Er to bring silver needles to test the poison one by one.
Sure enough, the dishes on the table were not only poisonous, but more than one dish was poisonous. I found the imperial doctor to examine it, and found that it was all the same dove poison, which shows that this is the same person's hand.
Yun Yi didn't expect that the concubine would be so blatant and unscrupulous, and she didn't have the patience and scheming that a woman in the position of the concubine should have, didn't she plan to care about her identity?
In the future, Yun Yi knew that she was too naïve, maybe for her, she knew who the murderer was at a glance, but for others, for her empty mouth to open her mouth to identify, she would only have a skeptical attitude, maybe she thought she was malicious slander.
The emperor, who came to see her because of this, told Yun Yi that the body of the palace maid who poisoned her had been found in the well of the cold palace, and the person who heard the autopsy said that she was not killed and killed, but jumped into it herself after poisoning Yun Yi.
The clue has been completely cut off at this point, and it is completely impossible to find out who did it. And because this matter involved Yun Yi, the "good omen", the emperor made a lot of efforts to investigate, but he didn't get any clues, and he even warned his concubines one by one about this, but no one admitted it.
Who would be so stupid as to admit it, Yun Yi looked at the emperor with a sad face and thought that even if he was told that he was the concubine who did it now, the emperor would definitely not believe it.
The poisoning incident is not the end, but the beginning.
A few days later, Yun Yi went to the carp pond to relax, just as she was facing the brightly colored carp in the pond feeding the fish food in her hands, suddenly the alarm in her heart sounded, Yun Yi turned around instantly, but was still dragged down by the palace maid who wanted to push her into the water.
Yun Yi's body is already good among ordinary people after being transformed by the imprint, and she can swim herself, but the palace maid who pulled her to jump together grabbed Yun Yi's feet under the water, no matter how Yun Yi kicked her, kicked her, or even turned around and wanted to tear her hand away, it was all useless - the palace maid only wanted Yun Yi to die wholeheartedly.
The fighting in the water was quite physically demanding, and in the end, it was the guards who had been following Yun Yi, who saw Yun Yi being pulled into the water, and quickly jumped down, and after finding that they couldn't let go of the palace maid no matter what, they immediately cut off her arm with a knife, and then rescued Yun Yi ashore.
Yun Yi, who was sitting on the shore, watched as the blood flowing from her body gradually stained the entire pool, and the fish scattered in panic.
And the palace maid who had his arm cut off was still staring at Yun Yi persistently, and even wanted to continue to go ashore and drag her into the water, but the head that poked out of the water was cut off by the guards standing on the shore, and the head that fell off floated on the water, and the lifeless emaciated body gradually sank into the water, but the eyes were still staring at Yun Yi.
Liu Er beside him was anxious to get the firmly grasping arm on Yun Yi's ankle, but Yun Yi sat stiffly on the ground, with only fear and confusion in his eyes.
Growing so big, this is the first time she has seen a real dead person, and even this palace maid she still knows, one of the people who was assigned to the Lanyue Hall at the beginning, she didn't talk much, but things were done well.
She only felt creepy, a living person was killed in front of her eyes, just because that woman wanted to let herself die, these people's lives were worthless in her eyes, they were just her tools to kill Yun Yi, she couldn't get close to Yun Yi, so she let others do it.
When the emperor got the news and hurried over, what he saw was a mess in the carp pond, and this kind of thing happened one after another under his nose, which made the emperor feel very angry, which was simply slapping him in the face, but he couldn't find out who did it.
He wanted to step forward to comfort Yun Yi, who had already taken that arm off, but Yun Yi waved his hand at him and led the person away.
After the two assassinations, in order to prevent accidents, Yun Yi simply didn't even go out of the door, only reading books in the room.
On the surface, Yun Yi seemed to have calmed down and didn't take that incident to heart, but only she knew that since that day, she had nightmares every night, dreaming of those eyes staring at her and a pool of carp full of blood.
Insomnia made Yun Yi start to feel a little sluggish, often looking at the book in his hand with his eyes, but his mind didn't know where to drift, maybe he was not strong enough, the protagonist in those books didn't even blink his eyes when he killed someone for the first time, but he was so scared when he just saw a dead person, he was really timid.
Comforting himself with such self-deprecation, time did not begin to pass after Yun Yi calmed down, but after five days, the third assassination had already begun.
This time, when Yun Yi was eating, the palace maid who came in with the dishes suddenly pulled out a dagger from under the plate and stabbed it straight into Yun Yi's heart.
Seeing this scene happening, Yun Yi found that she was unexpectedly calm, maybe it was a lifetime and two familiarity, this third time she even thought of the allusion of Jing Ke's assassination of King Qin, and she could enjoy the same treatment as the first emperor, does this mean that her life is still quite valuable?
When Liu Er, who left because of something temporary, came in, she saw the scene of her mother sitting on the bench eating, but there was a palace maid with a dagger lying under her feet.
"I'm fine, you go and get someone to tie her up, remember to tell them not to hurt their lives. Yun Yi put down the chopsticks in his hand: "Things should also be understood, and she can't be allowed to go on like this." ”
Yun Yi's state of mind at this time is extremely peaceful, whether she is timid or not, afraid or not, what should come will always come, after she got the book, after she agreed to that condition, it already means that her way forward is no longer peaceful, things will not happen after she has prepared everything, since she can't hide, it is better to take the initiative and face it with a calm mind.
