Chapter Ninety-Two: Dead

Gao Yun groaned: "As long as you confront He Jing, are you really willing to surrender?"

"Exactly. I replied righteously.

"Okay!" Gao Yun's face was a little resolute: "Then I will help you fulfill your wish." ”

I got Gao Yun's promise, and I got my wish.

Under the strict surveillance of Gao Yun and several other arresters, I not only finally returned to my home, but even sat in front of He Jing.

In the room where Tang Ling was stabbed by me, I sat calmly at the bamboo table that had been stained with Tang Ling's blood.

And He Jing sat across from me, expressionless.

The two of us were silent for a long time.

The air was eerily dull, and only the impatient pacing of Gao Yun and the others outside the house could be heard.

I cleared my throat and said, "Ma'am, you've cleared up a lot. ”

He Jing raised her eyes and glanced at me and said, "Husband, your appearance has changed so much now, I almost can't recognize you as a wife." ”

I touched my messy hair and beard that I hadn't treated for many days, and smiled a little bleakly: "My husband is now a lost dog, how can I be in the mood to take care of my appearance?"

He Jing also smiled indifferently and said, "Also, you are burdened with several murders, and you are tired of running for your life, no wonder you are a little embarrassed." ”

I looked at the faint smile on He Jing's face, like ripples, fainting shallowly on the calm water. It's so breezy and light, but it's moving.

I'm a little remorseful.

He Jing's appearance is so delicate, but I don't know what I'm busy with on weekdays, and I don't even have time to appreciate it.

Now I finally have the heart to admire, but it is the time of farewell.

People are always cherishing, those who can't ask for it, and regret those who have gained and lost.

I sighed softly, "Madam, do you hate me?"

He Jing still smiled and said lightly: "Don't hate." ”

She said it so lightly, as if she was talking about someone else's business.

But I didn't believe it: "Then why did you put me to death?"

The corners of He Jing's mouth turned upward, like a lotus flower slowly blooming on her face. She said softly: "If there is hatred in your heart, it means that you still have a place." But now, in my heart, you don't know what to do. Therefore, naturally I can't hate it. ”

My heart was cold, and I said unwillingly: "Why? I love you so much that I have never been sorry for you." Why do you say that?"

Unexpectedly, He Jing actually covered her mouth and laughed: "Love, hahaha, husband, when you speak, you are really as brazen as always." ”

I was stunned, I didn't expect that He Jing, who was usually docile and respectful, would comment on me like this.

The smile on He Jing's face suddenly closed, and her voice became cold: "Five years ago, I had a relationship with you at the Lantern Festival. But you fell in love with me, and you came to my house every day to entangle me. At that time, I had already secretly fallen in love with my childhood sweetheart's cousin, and categorically rejected your proposal. As a result, you did not give up, but had evil thoughts in your heart, and secretly designed to frame your father. My father was originally a scholar, but you tricked my father into investing in private salt. At that time, the illicit salt business was rampant, and the imperial court was furious and thoroughly investigated the sale of illicit salt. Then you grasped your father's mistakes and threatened them to marry me to you. In order to protect my father, I made a compromise, cut off my love with my cousin with hatred, and married you. I have already made up my mind, since I am destined to be married to you, I will raise eyebrows with you from now on. Who knows, less than a year after marriage, you snubbed and alienated me, and under the pretext of official business, you did not return day and night. What's more, I soon found out that you were messing with my dowry girl, Xiaolian. I thought that since you were interested in Xiaolian, I would take her as a concubine. How do you know that Xiaolian's girl knelt down in front of me, saying that she would rather die than marry you as a concubine. After careful questioning, I realized that at that time, in order to occupy Xiaolian's girl, you used the lives of her whole family as a threat. I hugged Xiaolian and cried, and I had the idea of destroying you. ”

As soon as He Jing's voice fell, I froze.

The people closest to me hate me like this.

I was silent for a long time before I said astringently: "Then the way you destroy me is to poison Tang Ling?"

"Exactly. He Jing talked about this murderous act, and his expression was calm: "What you care about most is your career reputation." If you kill an adulterer, not only will no one sympathize with you, but you will become the laughing stock of the whole world. I have already asked Xiaolian to hint that your birthday and mine are coming, so that you can determine the date of returning home. On my birthday, I invited Tang Liang to drink at home, and calculated your return time and poisoned the wine in advance. ”

My attention is not on the process of killing. Instead, I felt inexplicably happy. So I almost blurted out: "Then do you have a personal relationship with that Tang Ling?"

"Nope. He Jing's face was still sad and joyless.

In the midst of all these tribulations, this is probably the only thing that makes me feel gratified.

"That Xiaolian, who killed it?" I was a little puzzled: "Since it has been confirmed that I poisoned the adulterer, why did I kill Xiaolian?"

"Xiaolian committed suicide. He Jing said with a cold expression: "We tricked you and stabbed a sword in Tang Ling's chest." But you know that Tang Ling has been poisoned before this, but it is only a matter of time. Xiaolian committed suicide with a camel bone knife with your name on it, just to confirm the evidence of your murder!"

In the last few sentences, He Jing raised her voice. My beloved wife, who is soft-spoken and gentle and demure on weekdays, said the words at this time, but they were loud and sound, which really shocked me.

But what shocked me even more was that He Jing and Xiaolian actually had the idea of burning jade and stone to complete this game.

I didn't expect their hatred for me to be so deep.

I froze in place, not knowing where to go.

After a long time, I sighed, looked at He Jing, and said faintly: "You are planning to put me to death." Why did you tell me all about it at this time?"

He Jing smiled slightly: "Because you are already in the middle of the game, you have no power to return to the sky." ”

I shook my head, "Not really." You know, why should I confront you before I am sentenced?"

He Jing showed a confused expression, but was obviously a little restless.

I said secretly, "What you care about is to prove that I killed someone and to condemn me." But what Tang Ling's family wants to know most is who the real murderer is. ”

"So what?" He Jing looked at me, a little confused: "Gao Yun will not rebel at this time." Tell the Tang family what I said. ”

"But if it's the Tang family, what if you hear your testimony?" I said with a gloomy face: "Among the four catchers who sent me to confront you tonight, one of them is Tang Ling's nephew, and he is now outside the door. ”

As soon as my words fell, the door to the room was pushed open.

A small, ruddy-faced young man walked in. He arched his hand at He Jingyi and said, "Madam, my surname is Tang Mingyuan, and he is Tang Ling's distant nephew. ”

He Jing's face suddenly turned pale, and his breath was a little uncomfortable.

I said a little proudly: "If Gao Yun kills Tang Yuan at this time, it will be difficult to justify himself in front of Lord Fu Yin." I've broken your game. ”

"Then what if I kill him?" He Jing raised his head and looked at me, still soft-spoken, with a weak expression.

"What?" I didn't seem to understand what He Jing meant, but I saw a white light flickering in front of me.

It was only after hearing a scream that we came back to our senses. When he looked closely, it was He Jing who flashed in front of Tang Yuan, and a Qianqian jade hand had already clamped Tang Yuan's throat.

On weekdays, He Jing always has a lot of manners, how can you imagine that she has such a sharp figure.

And her jade hands, which are not touched by spring water on weekdays, are weak and boneless, but at this time, they are like iron tongs, deeply embedded in the flesh and blood of Tang Yuan's throat. He Jing still had a weak and innocent expression and said, "You said that Lord Fu Yin, do you believe that I am a weak woman and killed Tang Yuan, or do you believe that you accidentally killed Tang Yuan when you tried to escape?"

Tang Yuan bared his teeth in pain, and large drops of blood flowed down his neck, staining the clothes on his chest red.

I was a little shocked by what I saw. But I know that Tang Yuan was the last straw for me to clear my name. So I subconsciously waved my palm towards He Jing.

After all, the purple clothes have been catching for many years, and my pair of palm knives are still quite powerful.

This palm happened to hit He Jing's hand that was holding Tang Yuan's throat.

He Jing suddenly found that his right hand, as if unconscious, was loosened softly.

And Tang Yuan, as if he had caught a glimmer of life, immediately jumped up like a rabbit and hid to the side.

He Jing was furious and grabbed the teapot on the table out of thin air.

Just listen to the bang, the teapot shatters instantly, and the tea flows down the table to the ground.

At this time, a strange scene appeared.

He Jing's palm flipped, and the tea actually formed a small snake-sized water column, hanging in the air. He Jing waved his hand, and the water column was like an eye, hitting my chest.

I didn't know where the water column came from, so I stayed where I was.

I don't know that my underestimation of the enemy will bring devastating consequences.

I only felt a chill in my chest, as if I had been pricked with a silver needle. I looked down, but I was shocked that the three souls were gone. I saw that my chest had been pierced by a column of water. And blood is gushing out. What followed was a sharp pain in the heart. But even more than the pain, I was amazed and frightened.

And He Jing didn't give me time to continue to be surprised. Her hands were already flying, and more columns of water rose into the air, swaying behind her, like dozens of small snakes, waiting for an opportunity to move at me.

I knew that if I hesitated, I would be trapped in a hornet's nest by this strange group of snakes.

After all, I'm not a vegetarian either.

At the moment when He Jing's hands swung forward, I suddenly let out a loud shout and flew forward. At the same time, I slashed my palms in He Jing's direction continuously, trying to block these water columns.

But I have no bottom in my heart, and I don't know who the winner is in this palm of flesh and the column of water.

When I fell to the ground and stood still, I hurriedly looked around myself.

To my surprise, there was not a single scar on my body. Even my palms are intact.

It was as if the column of water that killed people never existed.

I was a little confused, and raised my eyes to look at He Jing.

found that He Jing was covered in blood and fell to the ground, angry like a gossamer.

It seems that my palm knife seriously injured He Jing.

I slowly approached He Jing, feeling inexplicably sad in my heart. As I walked, I asked, "Why, you didn't use the water sword for this last blow?"

He Jing smiled, a faint smile, as pure and innocent as a lotus flower after the rain: "It's your palm knife that is powerful, I didn't have time to swing the water sword." ”

"Not true. I interrupted He Jing: "It's not that you're too late, it's that you don't plan to knock out the water sword at all." ”

My eyes moistened a little: "You don't want to kill me, you don't want me to die." You're still affectionate with me, aren't you?"

"Hahaha. Who knew that He Jing actually laughed: "It's really ridiculous to be amorous." ”

I was a little incredulous: "Then why are you merciful to my men?"

The smile on He Jing's face was closed, and he said coldly: "I'm not merciful to you. My kung fu, but only the skin, is not your match at all. What I ask is not to kill you, but to let you kill me with your own hands. ”

I was shocked and excited: "Why? Are you crazy?"

He Jing sighed lightly: "It is reasonable for you to kill Hongxing's wife who came out of the wall with your own hands, but it is difficult to escape the king's law." As long as it can ruin your reputation, what fear do I have to die?"

After speaking, He Jing's face turned pale, coughed violently, and he couldn't even sit still.

I hurriedly ran over to support He Jing and said bitterly: "What is the deep hatred between you and me, which makes you want to die rather than put me to death? I will never believe that if I do something to mess with flowers and grass, you will hate me like this." ”

He Jing touched the bloodshot on the corner of her mouth, and said miserably: "You are used to doing things that have no conscience, but you always try to find ways to excuse yourself. In the long run, you don't realize that you are a bad person. ”

"Am I a bad person?" I was shocked, and immediately said, "I am a law enforcer and conscientious." I earn money to support my family and give you a stable and comfortable life. How could I be a bad person?"

He Jing suddenly raised her voice: "You have framed people who pose a threat to your future many times, and you have not even let go of your own brother, this is unjust. Thou hast betrayed thy wife, and thou hast been unfaithful. You threatened me with my father's honor, broke me up with my cousin, and forced me to marry you. And my cousin He Zhongtang, his lover has been lost, but you still haven't let him go. You framed him for cheating, and even collaborated with Tang Ling to kill him. This is unkind. Isn't such an unkind, unrighteous and disloyal person a bad person?"

I couldn't help but say, "It turns out that you are trying to get justice for your old lover." ”

He Jing sneered: "Those who are clear are self-purifying, and it is useless to say more." ”

After speaking, He Jing closed her eyes and stopped talking.

I was still unwilling, and said astringently: "You say I'm a bad person, but I'm sincere to you." I remember that year's Lantern Festival, by the Bianliang River, in the crowd, I saw you at a glance. You are wearing a long blue skirt with two black braids, which makes the red round face look so different. And those clear eyes, like a lake in the mountains, made my heart instantly pure. You are standing under a plum tree, climbing branches and laughing. The human face is like a flower, and the fragrance of flowers strikes people. It was the most beautiful view I've ever seen in my life. I am willing to pay any price to keep this moment of beauty and keep it for myself. Even, for the sake of it, to play tricks, frame, threaten, and rob. Finally, you've come to me. Although with resentment. But I always thought that time and warmth could resolve these resentments. For a long time, I carefully held you in the palm of my hand as if walking on thin ice. For a person as cold as me, do you know how difficult it is to do this for you? Even the idea of messing with flowers and grass was once reluctantly suppressed by me. Later, I was afraid that you would be sad, and I took a lot of effort to hide it. Most of the people in this world, in my opinion, are just people who can be used. You're the only one, I've poured my heart into it, and I've paid it seriously......"

For my true confession, He Jing still closed her eyes and was unmoved.

I was a little annoyed and patted He Jing on the shoulder.

But he was surprised to find that He Jing was cold to the touch and was already out of breath.

Suddenly I was saddened.

The first sight of this life is still vivid.

In the blink of an eye, I was running as dismal as I am.

I gently hugged the only person I had put my heart to, and sobbed quietly.

Behind me, Gao Yun's cold voice came: "Madame is determined, Gao admires." I hope that this last move of Madame will make you subjugated. ”

I choked up and said, "I wondered what was the cause of the betrayal of my friends and lovers? At this time, I have no regrets. ”

After speaking, I gently put down He Jing and stood up. I flicked my sleeves, and suddenly I felt relaxed, as if I had paid for the sins of the world, and never caused dust.

I let out a soft sigh and was reincarnated and left with Gao Yun.

Shuntianfu is my destination. ”
