The rich and noble peasant daughter
Chapter 227 Du Yiming's Curtain Ends, Canonized Princess
Chapter 227 Du Yiming's Curtain Ends, Canonized Princess
The cold air radiating from her body mixed with murderous aura, made the others tremble involuntarily.
Although Yun Xi had long been prepared to receive news of Yu Qingran's death at any time, this did not include her being killed by her husband.If Mrs. Yu knew the news, she would be very sad.
In the past, Du Yiming was able to become a scholar, and even won the exam. It was indistinguishable from Yu Qingran's help.Yu Qingran's adoptive father was a scholar, and his books were basically given to Yu Qingran as a dowry to help his son-in-law.When Yu Xiucai was still alive, he often mentioned Du Yiming.There was no problem with the old scholar's examinations in the past, but every time he took the imperial examination, his luck was always a little bit worse.
The marriage between Yu Qingran and Du Yiming was also selected by Yu Xiucai after many investigations.Isn't the reason for the son-in-law to get a good name in the examination so that the daughter can live comfortably for the rest of her life?Unexpectedly, the sincere cultivation would produce a wolf with big white eyes, which would ruin Yu Qingran's life instead.
Du Yiming, it's really not a pity to die ten thousand times!
The deep hatred in Yun Xi's eyes was floating and sinking, and she even felt that it would be too cheap for Du Yiming to execute him.
"Sister." A worried voice sounded.
Yun Xi turned her head and saw concern in the eyes of her younger sisters, her heart warmed up, and the coldness dissipated from her body, "I'm fine."
It's all right!He obviously looked like he wanted to kill someone just now!
Yun Yao slandered in her heart, but she could understand Yun Xi's mood very well.If father, like second uncle, killed her mother in order to marry the daughter of an official, she would definitely hate him to death.No, the two of them can't compare at all, her father is a well-known good old man in ten miles and eight villages, so he wouldn't do this!
Yun Xi sighed, "I'm really fine." She paused and said, "But I want to go and have a look, even if more than ten years have passed, I should find my mother's body and bury her properly .”
Compared with Du Yiming, a father who has no memory, Yuanchen's feelings for Yu Qingran are much deeper.Since she traveled over here and replaced her original body, she naturally had to help with something.
Yang Yurong hesitated for a moment and said, "Sister, I'll go with you too."
Yun Xi hesitated, "I'm worried that after Du Yiming sees you, he will ask you to intercede with her." He can definitely do this kind of thing.
Yang Yurong pursed her lips, with a sad expression, but with a sense of determination, "If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price. I understand this truth. I will definitely not make it difficult for my sister."
Yun Xi's voice drifted, as if she was lost in her own thoughts, "Yes, you should pay the price for doing something wrong, but many people don't understand this truth."
For example, Du Yiming, he tried his best to destroy his past, but in the end, the Skynet was restored, and it was careless.
No, you can't say that either.If she hadn't crossed over, Du Yiming would really be able to comfortably be Yang Yimeng for the rest of his life.And the possibility of her being able to cross over is almost miraculous... Thinking of this, Yun Xi's mood became even worse.
Both Yun Xi and Yu Rong went, it was even more impossible for Yun Yao and Duo Duo to stay in the mansion obediently, and finally the four of them set off for the yamen together.
Yun Xi couldn't help teasing herself, "In this capital, apart from Dianjiang Pavilion, the place I go to the most is Shuntian Mansion."
Yun Yao calculated it, and it was true.In the end, she was old-fashioned and sighed, "It can be seen that this is an eventful year."
She was a young girl, but she made such an expression, which made Yun Xi couldn't help laughing, stretched out her hand to rub Yun Yao's head, and the atmosphere seemed much happier because of it.
All the way to the government office in silence, there is still a large group of people around the door.When Yun Xi was in Fenghuang County before, she heard people in Fenghuang County bragging about how tall and magnificent the capital is all day long, and the common people inside also exuded the unique temperament of an imperial city.
But when she really lived in the capital, she realized that the people everywhere are the same, they are all keen to watch the fun, gossip, and brag behind their backs.For them, the so-called crime of deceiving the emperor and the so-called substitute identity are just chatter after dinner.
After all, what happens to oneself is a tragedy, and what happens to others is a farce.
When Yun Xi got off the carriage, the onlookers were already used to her appearance, so they made a way for them to go in. Yun Yao and the others were surprised for a while.
She had just walked into the government office, and Sun Hong, who was already an acquaintance with her, looked over and said, "Master Ming has really come, I was just about to have someone find you." After all, this matter involves the affairs of the princess The biological parents—even her father was accused of killing her mother.
Thinking of this, Sun Hong looked at Yun Xi with more sympathy.
Before getting out of the carriage, Yun Xi wiped her eyes with a handkerchief. Her eyes were red and she didn't apply any makeup. There were no extra patterns on the moon-white clothes, only a few orchids were embroidered on the hem of the skirt.The pitch-black hair was only inserted with a white jade hairpin, which looked extremely pure.Compared with her usual self-confidence and calmness, she appeared a little more haggard and fragile when she appeared in front of people for the first time after many days, which made people feel sorry for her.
Yun Xi also did this on purpose, after all, people always subconsciously sympathize with the weak.All she needs is to look weaker than Du Yiming who will appear later.
Her calm tone contained a touch of sadness, "I have been looking for my mother for many years, but I have not found any clues... Even if my mother is gone, I will find her body so that she can be buried in peace."
She is obviously very sad, but she is trying to be strong in everyone's eyes, which makes people feel more sympathetic. Relatively speaking, they despise Du Yiming who caused all the tragedies.
Yun Xi's eyes fell on the three people kneeling in the hall, two of them were over 60 years old at first glance, and the other was about [-] or so, but his lips were black, obviously poisoned.Although the three of them are not in good spirits, they all look tall and powerful.
Yun Xi knew in her heart that these three were probably the people from Heishanzhai who came to sue Du Yiming.No matter how stupid the people in Heishanzhai were, they would not let everyone in for the sake of Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe.At least the death penalty awaited those who turned themselves in—they all participated in the killing of the No. [-] Scholar back then.
These three people should come forward in person because time is running out.
She lowered her eyelids, and she had already decided in her heart: she would never easily let go of anyone who participated in the killing of Yu Qingran.
Sun Hong, who was sitting on the high hall, had already had Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe pressed down, he held a stack of papers and said to Yun Xi: "Master Ming, these are the three thieves from Heishanzhai. The letter evidence, does Princess Ming want to identify whether it is Du Yiming's authentic work?"
Yamen servant Xue Gui handed the letter paper to Yun Xi, and Yun Xi flipped through it one by one, pinching the letter paper with her fingers, if she hadn't forced herself to use reason to suppress herself, she would have tore the letter to pieces in anger.
These letters are all evidence of the conspiracy between Du Yiming and Zhao Pingyuan, the owner of the Heishan Village.
In the letter, Du Yiming told Heishanzhai Yang Yimeng's travel route back then, and asked them to get rid of Yang Yimeng as soon as possible.And Du Yiming also made a promise with Zhao Pingyuan that when things were done, he would take Zhao Baihe as his concubine, and he would definitely support their children in the future.
Perhaps because he was worried that Du Yiming would cross the river and tear down the bridge, Zhao Pingyuan kept these letters very well.In addition to letters, the two even signed a deed.It can also be seen from the letter that Zhao Baihe fell in love with Du Yiming a long time ago, perhaps because of Du Yiming's sweet talk and his ability to please girls.Even Zhao Pingyuan broke his own rule and attacked Yang Yimeng because he couldn't stand his daughter's earnest pleas.Zhao Baihe is the daughter of a bandit called Zhao Pingyuan, and it will be extremely difficult for Zhao Baihe to marry a good family in the future.It's just that Zhao Pingyuan didn't expect that his daughter, whom he had loved all his life, could even forget his father for the sake of his lover.
However, these letters never mentioned anything too clear.In other words, Yu Qingran's death was not caused by Heishanzhai?
After seeing these evidences, Yun Xi nodded at Sun Hong, "It's Du Yiming's handwriting." She was so sick and disgusted with Du Yiming that she didn't even want to call him daddy.
Yun Xi's face was heavy, "Where's my mother? How did she die?"
The oldest Wan Wei in Heishanzhai raised his head, and deep hatred flashed in his eyes—but the hatred was obviously aimed at Zhao Baihe and Du Yiming who were not there, "Your mother Yu Qingran came to the capital to look for Du Yiming, At that time, he was already the son-in-law of the Yang family, so he naturally avoided her repeatedly. The eldest lady was jealous of Yu Qingran's existence, because before Qingran was about to leave the capital, she deliberately created a chance for the two to meet."
"Du Yiming has some feelings for your mother, and he is trying to persuade Yu Qingran to help him cover up his identity and stay in the capital. He will find an opportunity to bring her back into the mansion in the future. Your mother has a backbone, she would rather I am reconciled with him, and I don't want to be his concubine. Du Yiming is afraid that she will expose the matter and hurt himself, so he will kill her."
"During the struggle, your mother fell off the cliff. The cliff is tens of meters high, and your mother has no chance of surviving."
Wanwei's voice was hoarse and he spoke intermittently.Now every time he takes a breath, he feels a burst of pain in his lungs, and all this is brought to them by Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe.If it wasn't for the two of them being cruel enough to poison them to death, how could he be half dead like this.
Wan Wei was very aware of Du Yunxi's weight in his heart. She was a much-loved princess, and she had only brought out something like cowpox a while ago. If she pleaded for Du Yiming, she could really spare his life.Therefore, in the words, they kept pushing Qingran's death on Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe, arousing her anger.
What Wan Wei didn't know was that even without Yu Qingran's matter, Yun Xi would not be able to intercede for Du Yiming.
Yun Xi's hands were tightly clenched into fists. At this time, she regretted that she did not follow Lu Yiran's happy and enmity route, otherwise she could have just slapped Du Yiming in the face with a whip.
"Which cliff did my mother fall off?"
Wan Wei said honestly, "There is Jiulongpo."
Yun Xi fell silent.Jiulongpo... She has also been there before, it is indeed very steep, unless Yu Qingran has martial arts, there is no possibility of surviving after falling from the top.Confirming the news of her death personally made Yun Xi's heart sour and extremely uncomfortable.
Du Yiming was also pushed in by the yamen at this time, his hands and feet were tied with iron chains, and when he heard Wan Wei's words, he said excitedly, "No!"
"At that time, I just saw that Qingran was too excited and wanted to calm her down for a while. I never thought of killing her! She also slipped and fell off the cliff!"
If it was someone else, there would still be some credibility, but Yun Xi didn't believe these excuses when they came out of Du Yiming's mouth. This person can be so cruel that he doesn't even remember his own daughter, let alone recognize his wife.
Du Yunyao couldn't bear to listen anymore, and she said angrily, "Slippery feet, why didn't you slip and fall? If you fell, there would be one less disaster in this world!"
Yun Xi almost burst out laughing.It's good to complain, that's the reason.
Du Yiming's expression changed, and he said, "No matter what I do, I will never attack my first wife."
Yun Xi said coldly; "You can even buy and kill your own daughter, what else can't you do?"
Du Yiming choked for a moment, there was enough evidence about this matter, he really couldn't deny it.He simply turned his head and glared at Zhao Baihe angrily, "If you, a femme fatale, hadn't deliberately brought Qingran here, Qingran would not have lost her life in vain."
"I didn't intend to replace Yang Yimeng at first. It was you who wanted to live a good life, so you encouraged me to commit such a crime of deceiving the emperor. If you hadn't kept whispering in my ears that if Yun Xi came to the capital If it’s not good for us, and contact the Blood Plum Sect for me, how could I be obsessed with ghosts and do such insane things.”
Everything he did has been exposed, and the evidence of the crime is conclusive. The current plan is to push all the crimes on Zhao Baihe, so that there is a chance of life.
Zhao Baihe stared wide-eyed, looking at Du Yiming in disbelief.She never expected that the man she trusted and loved would push her out without hesitation when she was in danger.
After a while, two lines of tears flowed from her cloudy eyes, and a bleak smile slowly appeared on her face, "Okay! What a Du Yiming! I, Zhao Baihe, are blind to fall in love with you, a wolf-hearted man. No, You don't deserve to be a man at all."
Yun Xi's eyes fell on Zhao Baihe. She was wearing dirty clothes with bloodshot eyes, her hair was messy, and she was unkempt.Yun Xi noticed that her bulging abdomen had become flat, and couldn't help raising her eyebrows——Zhao Baihe had a miscarriage in a cell?
Miscarriage, and still staying in prison without taking good care of her, no wonder Zhao Baihe's complexion looks so bad.
What Yun Xi didn't know was that Zhao Baihe's child was played with alive.The cell was already full of dragons and snakes, and many people in it didn't know how long they had been imprisoned, and they were about to fall ill.It was rare that a Zhao Baihe without a backer came, and the prisoners naturally bought the jailer with money, so that they could vent their anger on Zhao Baihe.
Everyone knows that Zhao Baihe is destined to be hanged or beheaded, and there are many people who can't see her actions. Under the influence of money to open the way, those jailers will turn a blind eye. Things happen all the time in the cell.Otherwise, why are those female relatives afraid of entering the prison cell, because it is equivalent to losing their reputation in the eyes of the world after entering.These tricky common people are clear.
Zhao Baihe had to deal with so many people by himself, and soon his body couldn't hold on, and he had a miscarriage.She is also in good health, and she didn't die after being tortured like this.During this process, Du Yiming protested at first, but he got beaten up, and then he kept silent, pretending that he was blind and deaf, and pretended not to see Zhao Baihe's plight.
Zhao Baihe recalled the hellish life in the cell during this period, and looked at Du Yiming's ruthless and ungrateful appearance, with deep regret in his heart, "If I knew this, I shouldn't have saved you that day, I should have let you You fend for yourself."
Perhaps her life would have been better if she hadn't met Du Yiming.
The people in Heishanzhai hated Zhao Baihe no less than Du Yiming, and even hated Zhao Baihe even more.After all, they are all from the generation of Zhao Baihe's grandfather and uncle, and they basically watched her grow up. Wan Wei said angrily, "Then Du Yiming is indeed a wolf-hearted scum, but you, Zhao Baihe, are not much better."
"I love you so much, I have treated you like a granddaughter since I was a child, but for a man, you ignored us uncles and grandpas, and even poisoned us!"
"Your father was so kind to you. He asked for the stars and not the moon since he was a child. If it wasn't for you, he would have violated his principles and killed the champion. But you are good. After you marry, you are afraid that people will find out. The cottage was completely broken, and he never came back to see us."
"Before your father died, he was still thinking about you, but you were so heartless that you refused to come back to see him off for the last time, so that he would die with regret. After he died, not only did he not keep his filial piety, but he also hang out with this Du Yiming. He died only two Moon, you have a body."
"An unfilial and shameless woman like you is a perfect match for Du Yiming, who kills his wife and daughter. They are a perfect match."
Only then did the onlookers realize that the famous Aunt Zhao was actually the daughter of the village owner of Heishan Village. Looking at what the Zhao family had done, it was really no better than Du Yiming.
Wan Wei spewed out all the anger in his heart in one breath, and he felt very happy after he finished speaking what was in his heart.
Zhao Baihe opened his mouth and said, "What poisoning? I didn't?"
Wan Wei looked at her in disgust, "At this point, you still want to deny it! The seven steps were specially assigned to you for self-defense because we were worried that you would be bullied outside. Who knew you would actually use them on us. "
Thinking of the whole Heishan village, which almost fell on her and Du Yiming, Wan Wei wanted to strangle them to death.The only thing that comforts him is that before he dies, he can still see the retribution of these two people.
It was only at this time that Zhao Baihe figured out why, why the people from Heishanzhai who had loved her since she was a child turned their faces ruthlessly, and came to the court to continue to add insult to injury and sue them, so there was another reason.
She just felt aggrieved, the reason why she stayed away from them was because she didn't want her past to be exposed, but she really never wanted them to die.
"Grandpa Wan, I really didn't poison you! How could I treat you like that?" She turned her head and looked at Du Yiming bitterly, her eyes no longer had the tenderness of the past, "You must have poisoned Heishanzhai , only you know where the Qibubao collection is."
This matter was not done by Du Yiming at all, of course he couldn't admit it, and said directly: "Don't rely on me for what you do yourself."
Zhao Baihe couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed over. Although her hands were bound by iron chains, it didn't prevent her from grabbing Du Yiming's face, "I'm going to kill you!"
Zhao Baihe's actions were too sudden, and Du Yiming was also a frail scholar, so he really couldn't escape. After being hit hard several times, he screamed, "You lowly maidservant! Let me go!"
In fact, Sun Hong should have asked Zhao Baihe to be pulled away immediately, but who made him also look down on Du Yiming's character? After he was caught by Zhao Baihe, he coughed and let The man pulled the two of them apart.
So far, the case has become very clear.Both Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe were accused of murdering Yang Yimeng, the number one scholar.Du Yiming is also charged with murdering his wife.However, Sun Hong felt that even if there were two more crimes, he would still be dead, at most, the method of death would be different.
Everyone in the capital knew that the crimes of these two people were unforgivable.
Zhao Baihe was in the cell during this time, so she couldn't cut her nails at all. Her nails were long and sharp, and she was a deadly weapon. In addition, she didn't show any sympathy when she attacked, and every claw wanted to grab Du Yiming's face off. .So now Du Yiming is not in normal misery, the wounds are turned out, dripping with blood, and he can no longer see his handsome appearance in the past.
Du Yiming bared his teeth in pain.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Baihe was relieved.She was going to die, and before she died, she had to vent her anger.Her hands subconsciously stroked her empty abdomen, and her child still couldn't come to this world in the end.
But it's fine if he wasn't born, with a pair of sinner parents like them, the child's life will be difficult in the future, anyway, she will drag Du Yiming to the underworld to find him sooner or later.
Sun Hong in the hall flipped through today's recorded confession - these will have to be read by His Majesty at that time, after all His Majesty is also very concerned about this matter.The marble man even wanted him to pass on the case.
Sun Yang knew this well, but he just wanted to take credit for it. He is not a person without a background, so how could he obediently give up his credit.
He coughed and asked the yamen guard to take the two of them back to the cell again.
While being pulled down, Du Yiming's eyes fell on the indifferent Yun Xi, and he couldn't help shouting: "Yun Xi, hurry up and plead for father, no matter how much I have wronged, it is still your father! If there is no me, Where will you be born."
"As a father, it's his right to deal with his daughter! At least you didn't die at that time, didn't you?"
Its shameless face amazes everyone who sees it.
Yun Xi sneered - did Du Yiming really think that if he put pressure on her in public, she would obediently submit?It's really a beautiful idea.
There was a cold light in her eyes, "When you killed my mother, when you paid me to kill me, we didn't have the so-called father-daughter relationship."
"Heaven and earth, master and master, you are in front of your father, you committed such a crime of deceiving the king, you should try to atone for yourself instead, but you still want to have someone intercede for you, it shows that you have no so-called remorse at all. .If a sinner like you can be forgiven, wouldn't that tell everyone that they can break the law as much as they want?"
"The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Could it be that you are still greater than the emperor?"
When Yun Xi spoke, everyone nodded repeatedly - this is the truth.Could it be that because Du Yiming has the princess's daughter, no matter how big a mistake he makes, it's okay?The laws of the Great Chu were useless.
What everyone looked down upon was that when Du Yiming bought Xuemeimen, he never thought that Yun Xi was his daughter. Now that something happened, he only wanted to ask for help. It was really shameless.
Many people scolded him directly.
Seeing that Yun Xi was unmoved, Du Yiming immediately shifted his gaze to Yang Yurong behind Yun Xi.
right!And Yu Rong!Yu Rong was soft-hearted, and she would definitely not be the same as Yun Xi, the cruel and ruthless girl who sat and watched him die.
He looked at Yang Yurong pleadingly, "Yurong, Daddy's good daughter. Please plead with your sister. Daddy really knows his mistake. Daddy will repent for the rest of his life. At that time, our family can continue to live in harmony. Beautiful day."
"Father spoiled you so much since childhood, is it possible that you want to learn from your sister? How can you be so unfilial and cruel?"
Yang Yurong looked at him with disappointment in his eyes: she had been proud of her father since she was a child, but she never expected his father to look like this.
She shook her head and said, "Father, you still don't feel that you did something wrong. My daughter really can't do anything." Pleading with her sister to save someone, she really couldn't do such a thing.
Seeing that all hope was gone, Du Yiming couldn't help but cursed: "You two wicked girls, if you knew this, you shouldn't have let the two of you survive in the first place."
Yun Xi directly stuffed a handkerchief of her own to Yu Rong, and wiped her eyes with a ginger water handkerchief. Her eyes turned red instantly, and her voice choked up, "You don't have to embarrass Yu Rong. Even if Yu Rong pleads, I won't agree. Yes. I am a little girl, but I don’t have the ability to change the laws of Great Chu.”
"What's more, I don't want to intercede for you. I'd rather be unfilial to you than let my mother who died in vain be chilled."
Du Yiming wanted to say something more, but the yamen servant had already blocked his mouth quickly and dragged him and Zhao Baihe down together.
When he leaves the cell next time, it will probably be the time for his and Zhao Baihe's execution.
Looking at his distressed figure being dragged down, Yun Xi said to Sun Hong: "After the execution, please let me know so that I can collect the body for him. This can be regarded as fulfilling the last fate of father and daughter."
When Du Yiming's execution time is set, there will definitely be a lot of rumors, how could Yun Xi not know.She just said this in public on purpose so that people could see that although Du Yiming was unkind and unrighteous, she still cared about the last bit of her feelings.
There's no way, the world likes to eat this kind of thing, so she can only bear with it and make this gesture.After getting the corpse, he will casually expose the corpse in the wilderness, and then get him an empty grave.
As for the worship every year, let alone think about it.
The only thing that gave her a headache was that she hadn't completely severed ties with Du Yiming yet, and after Du Yiming died, she would have to keep mourning for 27 months.Thinking of this, Yun Xi became very upset.
Walking out of the yamen and returning to the carriage, Yun Xi said to the unhappy Yu Rong, "You should have just made a symbolic pleading, anyway, I wouldn't agree."
Yu Rong shook her head, "That's not okay, wouldn't that be putting all the blame on my sister?" She pursed her lips and said, "I can't do such a thing by stepping on my sister to make myself famous."
Her eyes were slightly red, "Father, she also hurt me. At least, I will see him off before his execution."
There is no need to hunt down Yun Xi, no matter whether Du Yiming is pretending or not, he has also shown the image of a loving father to Yu Rong for more than ten years, so it is normal for Yu Rong to be sad.
Yun Xi actually wanted to stop it. After all, seeing that kind of scene with her own eyes would probably create a psychological shadow for the little girl.But if Yu Rong is stopped, maybe there will be a lifetime of knots.
She nodded, "I'll have someone send you there then." When the time is confirmed, let Li Qiu send Yu Rong there. If Yu Rong's expression is not right, even if you knock her out, you have to bring her back.
Back at the mansion, Yun Shen had already returned from the palace, Yun Xi hurriedly ordered the kitchen to make some dishes that girls like to eat on weekdays, and then told Yun Shen about the affairs in the yamen.
Yun Shen knew that she didn't care about Du Yiming at all, and the only thing she cared about was Yu Qingran, "Okay, I'll take a rest in a few days, and I'll go to Jiulongpo with you then."
At least Yu Qingran's body must be found - although it is very likely that it has turned into a bone.
As for Du Yiming...
Yun Shen's eyes narrowed slightly, but who knows if Du Yiming will say anything messy during the execution, just in case, it's better to do something first, at least make him speechless that day It's good to come.
……
Sun Hong quickly wrote down the whole process of the case into an excerpt, and sent it to Chu Xiyuan along with the confession.
A few days later, Chu Xiyuan decreed that Du Yiming was originally to be sentenced to death, but for Yun Xi's sake, the sentence was changed to hanging.As for Zhao Baihe, he was beheaded without a doubt.The time is set in three days, which is July [-]th.Before the execution, they paraded through the streets for a whole day.
Although hanging and beheading are death, there is still a slight difference between the two.Beheading is generally reserved for very serious crimes because it does not preserve the integrity of the body.
Yun Xi had never pleaded for mercy at all. After hearing the will, she was slightly taken aback, and realized that it was probably Yun Shen who helped her move.
Outsiders didn't know what it was, but praised her instead.
On the day of the execution, Yun Xi didn't go out at all, but stayed at home.On the contrary, Yin Dan went out to have a look, and when she came back, she told her that when the two were paraded through the street, they were smashed to the ground, which showed that the common people hated them to the extreme.
An hour later, Yu Rong, who gave Du Yiming a meal of decapitation, came back.Her eyes were red and swollen, obviously from a lot of crying.
Yun Xi comforted her and gave her some soothing soup. After she finished crying, she drank the soup again and soon became sleepy, so she went back to her room to rest.
Yun Xi's eyes unconsciously fell outside the door.After Du Yiming died completely, she couldn't talk about sadness, nor happiness, but a touch of melancholy emerged.
She rubbed her temples, perhaps due to the busyness of the past few days, she felt rare tired both physically and mentally.
Human death is like a lamp being extinguished, no matter how much grievances and hatreds were in life, they cannot be brought to the ground after death.
She said to Yin Dan: "Buried his body at random."
She changed her mind in the end, but this was her last bit of kindness towards Du Yiming. It was impossible for her to burn paper money for her.
She added, "You don't need to tell me where the burial is."
Yin Dan nodded, somewhat understanding her current mood.She added, "Then do we have to observe filial piety in our mansion?"
Yun Xi pursed her lips, a slight displeasure appeared on her face—Du Yiming was dead, she wanted to sever the relationship, she was afraid she would be called heartless.She sighed and said, "Choose some more plain clothes and come out."
Yun Shen has already paved the way for her, and she can't give up all her previous efforts.Isn't it just for show?She's the best at it!
……
As a son-in-law, Yun Shen had to keep Du Yiming's filial piety for three months.Of course, the husband and wife are just putting on a show outside, closing the door and doing what they should do.
Yun Xi felt that the only advantage of keeping filial piety was that life was much quieter.Everyone in the capital knows that she is in the filial piety period, and no one who is not good-looking will post a post for her to go to the banquet.The good thing for Yunshen is that he won't have to socialize for the next three months.
He had very good reasons for refusing.
When it was time for him to rest and take a bath, Yun Shen followed what he had said before, and brought Yun Xi to Jiulongpo.
Jiulongpo is at least 200 meters high, and there will be absolutely no bones left when it falls.
Yun Shen and the others walked directly to the bottom of the cliff by another road. The scenery at the bottom of the cliff was very ordinary, just a large grassland with overgrown weeds.
Yun Xi took a look, but really didn't see any bones.However, it is also possible that it has been covered by the land.
She sighed and said: "Before I came here, I had a thought that there might be a large lake underneath, and then my mother fell into the water directly and survived." Her mother can swim.
In fact, she really thought too much, not every cliff is a lake.
Yun Shen held her hand, bringing her a touch of comfort.
Yun Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, and said in a low voice: "Actually, I'm not very sad, after all, I've been mentally prepared."
The one who is really going to be uncomfortable is probably the upcoming Mrs. Yu.Madam Yu had previously held the slightest thought that her daughter was still alive, but now she has completely given up on it.
Yun Shen ordered, "Dig this piece of ground three feet." You have to dig it out!Anyway, what he lacks most is people.
Yun Xi said: "Go and look for those around here too."
The two of them ordered, and the subordinates naturally obeyed obediently.
Yun Xi couldn't be here and watch them dig the soil for a day.
The two stood here for a while and then went back.
The next day, Mo Yan and Yun Xi reported that they had found a dead bone. Judging from the skeleton, the deceased was a woman in her 20s.Yu Qingran was only in her 20s when she died.
Yun Xi was startled, with a sad expression on her face, "Bury her well."
After Qing Ran's body was buried, Yun Xi even went to burn a stick of incense for her, and said many things to her in her heart.Du Yiming has already suffered retribution, so she doesn't have to worry about it.She also told her that she had helped Yu Qingran find her biological parents, and told a lot about Mrs. Yu.However, Yun Xi felt that what Yu Qingran missed most before her death was probably her biological daughter, Du Yunxi.
The original body's soul is gone, and Yun Xi can only promise her that she will live a good life.
She also sprinkled Yu Qingran's favorite orchids around Yu Qingran, and only hoped that in the coming year, she would be surrounded by orchids everywhere.
After the worship was too green, Yun Xi returned to the mansion, only to find that the servant Li Ren was holding the imperial decree in his hand, and smiled slightly, "The princess can be regarded as letting me wait for a while, but because of this, I can eat the snacks in the Yun mansion. It’s not in vain that I specifically asked for the job of proclaiming the decree.”
A servant behind him reminded, "My lord, you can't call me the princess anymore."
Li Ren smiled slightly, "Yes, it's time to call you princess now."
"Eh?" Yun Xi couldn't react.
Li Ren opened the imperial decree——Yun Xi subconsciously accepted the decree.
Chu Xiyuan directly canonized Yun Xi as a princess this time - this time, no one really has any objections, because the cowpox can be said to have contributed to Qianqiu Sheji.
In the imperial decree, Yun Xi was greatly praised with beautiful flowers, but Yun Xi was thick-skinned, but she didn't blush from the praise.
The only thought that flashed in her mind was: she could be regarded as promoted.Yun Shen is about to be promoted to Prince Consort.Well, he has always thought that a son-in-law sounds better than a county horse.She knew in her heart that the princess' canonization was not only because of cowpox, but also because of the previous credit for transforming guns.
Li Ren smiled gently, "Your Majesty will send related rewards in two days." For example, fields and the like... and the expansion of the mansion.The regulation of the Princess Mansion is different from that of the Princess Mansion.
Yun Xi smiled, it was indeed a great joy to be canonized as a princess.
She stood up, took the imperial edict, a sudden dizziness hit her, and Yun Xi felt as if her whole body was plunged into darkness in an instant.
She fell straight down, and Shuang Jiang next to her subconsciously caught her, with a trace of fear remaining on her face.
(End of this chapter)
The cold air radiating from her body mixed with murderous aura, made the others tremble involuntarily.
Although Yun Xi had long been prepared to receive news of Yu Qingran's death at any time, this did not include her being killed by her husband.If Mrs. Yu knew the news, she would be very sad.
In the past, Du Yiming was able to become a scholar, and even won the exam. It was indistinguishable from Yu Qingran's help.Yu Qingran's adoptive father was a scholar, and his books were basically given to Yu Qingran as a dowry to help his son-in-law.When Yu Xiucai was still alive, he often mentioned Du Yiming.There was no problem with the old scholar's examinations in the past, but every time he took the imperial examination, his luck was always a little bit worse.
The marriage between Yu Qingran and Du Yiming was also selected by Yu Xiucai after many investigations.Isn't the reason for the son-in-law to get a good name in the examination so that the daughter can live comfortably for the rest of her life?Unexpectedly, the sincere cultivation would produce a wolf with big white eyes, which would ruin Yu Qingran's life instead.
Du Yiming, it's really not a pity to die ten thousand times!
The deep hatred in Yun Xi's eyes was floating and sinking, and she even felt that it would be too cheap for Du Yiming to execute him.
"Sister." A worried voice sounded.
Yun Xi turned her head and saw concern in the eyes of her younger sisters, her heart warmed up, and the coldness dissipated from her body, "I'm fine."
It's all right!He obviously looked like he wanted to kill someone just now!
Yun Yao slandered in her heart, but she could understand Yun Xi's mood very well.If father, like second uncle, killed her mother in order to marry the daughter of an official, she would definitely hate him to death.No, the two of them can't compare at all, her father is a well-known good old man in ten miles and eight villages, so he wouldn't do this!
Yun Xi sighed, "I'm really fine." She paused and said, "But I want to go and have a look, even if more than ten years have passed, I should find my mother's body and bury her properly .”
Compared with Du Yiming, a father who has no memory, Yuanchen's feelings for Yu Qingran are much deeper.Since she traveled over here and replaced her original body, she naturally had to help with something.
Yang Yurong hesitated for a moment and said, "Sister, I'll go with you too."
Yun Xi hesitated, "I'm worried that after Du Yiming sees you, he will ask you to intercede with her." He can definitely do this kind of thing.
Yang Yurong pursed her lips, with a sad expression, but with a sense of determination, "If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price. I understand this truth. I will definitely not make it difficult for my sister."
Yun Xi's voice drifted, as if she was lost in her own thoughts, "Yes, you should pay the price for doing something wrong, but many people don't understand this truth."
For example, Du Yiming, he tried his best to destroy his past, but in the end, the Skynet was restored, and it was careless.
No, you can't say that either.If she hadn't crossed over, Du Yiming would really be able to comfortably be Yang Yimeng for the rest of his life.And the possibility of her being able to cross over is almost miraculous... Thinking of this, Yun Xi's mood became even worse.
Both Yun Xi and Yu Rong went, it was even more impossible for Yun Yao and Duo Duo to stay in the mansion obediently, and finally the four of them set off for the yamen together.
Yun Xi couldn't help teasing herself, "In this capital, apart from Dianjiang Pavilion, the place I go to the most is Shuntian Mansion."
Yun Yao calculated it, and it was true.In the end, she was old-fashioned and sighed, "It can be seen that this is an eventful year."
She was a young girl, but she made such an expression, which made Yun Xi couldn't help laughing, stretched out her hand to rub Yun Yao's head, and the atmosphere seemed much happier because of it.
All the way to the government office in silence, there is still a large group of people around the door.When Yun Xi was in Fenghuang County before, she heard people in Fenghuang County bragging about how tall and magnificent the capital is all day long, and the common people inside also exuded the unique temperament of an imperial city.
But when she really lived in the capital, she realized that the people everywhere are the same, they are all keen to watch the fun, gossip, and brag behind their backs.For them, the so-called crime of deceiving the emperor and the so-called substitute identity are just chatter after dinner.
After all, what happens to oneself is a tragedy, and what happens to others is a farce.
When Yun Xi got off the carriage, the onlookers were already used to her appearance, so they made a way for them to go in. Yun Yao and the others were surprised for a while.
She had just walked into the government office, and Sun Hong, who was already an acquaintance with her, looked over and said, "Master Ming has really come, I was just about to have someone find you." After all, this matter involves the affairs of the princess The biological parents—even her father was accused of killing her mother.
Thinking of this, Sun Hong looked at Yun Xi with more sympathy.
Before getting out of the carriage, Yun Xi wiped her eyes with a handkerchief. Her eyes were red and she didn't apply any makeup. There were no extra patterns on the moon-white clothes, only a few orchids were embroidered on the hem of the skirt.The pitch-black hair was only inserted with a white jade hairpin, which looked extremely pure.Compared with her usual self-confidence and calmness, she appeared a little more haggard and fragile when she appeared in front of people for the first time after many days, which made people feel sorry for her.
Yun Xi also did this on purpose, after all, people always subconsciously sympathize with the weak.All she needs is to look weaker than Du Yiming who will appear later.
Her calm tone contained a touch of sadness, "I have been looking for my mother for many years, but I have not found any clues... Even if my mother is gone, I will find her body so that she can be buried in peace."
She is obviously very sad, but she is trying to be strong in everyone's eyes, which makes people feel more sympathetic. Relatively speaking, they despise Du Yiming who caused all the tragedies.
Yun Xi's eyes fell on the three people kneeling in the hall, two of them were over 60 years old at first glance, and the other was about [-] or so, but his lips were black, obviously poisoned.Although the three of them are not in good spirits, they all look tall and powerful.
Yun Xi knew in her heart that these three were probably the people from Heishanzhai who came to sue Du Yiming.No matter how stupid the people in Heishanzhai were, they would not let everyone in for the sake of Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe.At least the death penalty awaited those who turned themselves in—they all participated in the killing of the No. [-] Scholar back then.
These three people should come forward in person because time is running out.
She lowered her eyelids, and she had already decided in her heart: she would never easily let go of anyone who participated in the killing of Yu Qingran.
Sun Hong, who was sitting on the high hall, had already had Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe pressed down, he held a stack of papers and said to Yun Xi: "Master Ming, these are the three thieves from Heishanzhai. The letter evidence, does Princess Ming want to identify whether it is Du Yiming's authentic work?"
Yamen servant Xue Gui handed the letter paper to Yun Xi, and Yun Xi flipped through it one by one, pinching the letter paper with her fingers, if she hadn't forced herself to use reason to suppress herself, she would have tore the letter to pieces in anger.
These letters are all evidence of the conspiracy between Du Yiming and Zhao Pingyuan, the owner of the Heishan Village.
In the letter, Du Yiming told Heishanzhai Yang Yimeng's travel route back then, and asked them to get rid of Yang Yimeng as soon as possible.And Du Yiming also made a promise with Zhao Pingyuan that when things were done, he would take Zhao Baihe as his concubine, and he would definitely support their children in the future.
Perhaps because he was worried that Du Yiming would cross the river and tear down the bridge, Zhao Pingyuan kept these letters very well.In addition to letters, the two even signed a deed.It can also be seen from the letter that Zhao Baihe fell in love with Du Yiming a long time ago, perhaps because of Du Yiming's sweet talk and his ability to please girls.Even Zhao Pingyuan broke his own rule and attacked Yang Yimeng because he couldn't stand his daughter's earnest pleas.Zhao Baihe is the daughter of a bandit called Zhao Pingyuan, and it will be extremely difficult for Zhao Baihe to marry a good family in the future.It's just that Zhao Pingyuan didn't expect that his daughter, whom he had loved all his life, could even forget his father for the sake of his lover.
However, these letters never mentioned anything too clear.In other words, Yu Qingran's death was not caused by Heishanzhai?
After seeing these evidences, Yun Xi nodded at Sun Hong, "It's Du Yiming's handwriting." She was so sick and disgusted with Du Yiming that she didn't even want to call him daddy.
Yun Xi's face was heavy, "Where's my mother? How did she die?"
The oldest Wan Wei in Heishanzhai raised his head, and deep hatred flashed in his eyes—but the hatred was obviously aimed at Zhao Baihe and Du Yiming who were not there, "Your mother Yu Qingran came to the capital to look for Du Yiming, At that time, he was already the son-in-law of the Yang family, so he naturally avoided her repeatedly. The eldest lady was jealous of Yu Qingran's existence, because before Qingran was about to leave the capital, she deliberately created a chance for the two to meet."
"Du Yiming has some feelings for your mother, and he is trying to persuade Yu Qingran to help him cover up his identity and stay in the capital. He will find an opportunity to bring her back into the mansion in the future. Your mother has a backbone, she would rather I am reconciled with him, and I don't want to be his concubine. Du Yiming is afraid that she will expose the matter and hurt himself, so he will kill her."
"During the struggle, your mother fell off the cliff. The cliff is tens of meters high, and your mother has no chance of surviving."
Wanwei's voice was hoarse and he spoke intermittently.Now every time he takes a breath, he feels a burst of pain in his lungs, and all this is brought to them by Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe.If it wasn't for the two of them being cruel enough to poison them to death, how could he be half dead like this.
Wan Wei was very aware of Du Yunxi's weight in his heart. She was a much-loved princess, and she had only brought out something like cowpox a while ago. If she pleaded for Du Yiming, she could really spare his life.Therefore, in the words, they kept pushing Qingran's death on Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe, arousing her anger.
What Wan Wei didn't know was that even without Yu Qingran's matter, Yun Xi would not be able to intercede for Du Yiming.
Yun Xi's hands were tightly clenched into fists. At this time, she regretted that she did not follow Lu Yiran's happy and enmity route, otherwise she could have just slapped Du Yiming in the face with a whip.
"Which cliff did my mother fall off?"
Wan Wei said honestly, "There is Jiulongpo."
Yun Xi fell silent.Jiulongpo... She has also been there before, it is indeed very steep, unless Yu Qingran has martial arts, there is no possibility of surviving after falling from the top.Confirming the news of her death personally made Yun Xi's heart sour and extremely uncomfortable.
Du Yiming was also pushed in by the yamen at this time, his hands and feet were tied with iron chains, and when he heard Wan Wei's words, he said excitedly, "No!"
"At that time, I just saw that Qingran was too excited and wanted to calm her down for a while. I never thought of killing her! She also slipped and fell off the cliff!"
If it was someone else, there would still be some credibility, but Yun Xi didn't believe these excuses when they came out of Du Yiming's mouth. This person can be so cruel that he doesn't even remember his own daughter, let alone recognize his wife.
Du Yunyao couldn't bear to listen anymore, and she said angrily, "Slippery feet, why didn't you slip and fall? If you fell, there would be one less disaster in this world!"
Yun Xi almost burst out laughing.It's good to complain, that's the reason.
Du Yiming's expression changed, and he said, "No matter what I do, I will never attack my first wife."
Yun Xi said coldly; "You can even buy and kill your own daughter, what else can't you do?"
Du Yiming choked for a moment, there was enough evidence about this matter, he really couldn't deny it.He simply turned his head and glared at Zhao Baihe angrily, "If you, a femme fatale, hadn't deliberately brought Qingran here, Qingran would not have lost her life in vain."
"I didn't intend to replace Yang Yimeng at first. It was you who wanted to live a good life, so you encouraged me to commit such a crime of deceiving the emperor. If you hadn't kept whispering in my ears that if Yun Xi came to the capital If it’s not good for us, and contact the Blood Plum Sect for me, how could I be obsessed with ghosts and do such insane things.”
Everything he did has been exposed, and the evidence of the crime is conclusive. The current plan is to push all the crimes on Zhao Baihe, so that there is a chance of life.
Zhao Baihe stared wide-eyed, looking at Du Yiming in disbelief.She never expected that the man she trusted and loved would push her out without hesitation when she was in danger.
After a while, two lines of tears flowed from her cloudy eyes, and a bleak smile slowly appeared on her face, "Okay! What a Du Yiming! I, Zhao Baihe, are blind to fall in love with you, a wolf-hearted man. No, You don't deserve to be a man at all."
Yun Xi's eyes fell on Zhao Baihe. She was wearing dirty clothes with bloodshot eyes, her hair was messy, and she was unkempt.Yun Xi noticed that her bulging abdomen had become flat, and couldn't help raising her eyebrows——Zhao Baihe had a miscarriage in a cell?
Miscarriage, and still staying in prison without taking good care of her, no wonder Zhao Baihe's complexion looks so bad.
What Yun Xi didn't know was that Zhao Baihe's child was played with alive.The cell was already full of dragons and snakes, and many people in it didn't know how long they had been imprisoned, and they were about to fall ill.It was rare that a Zhao Baihe without a backer came, and the prisoners naturally bought the jailer with money, so that they could vent their anger on Zhao Baihe.
Everyone knows that Zhao Baihe is destined to be hanged or beheaded, and there are many people who can't see her actions. Under the influence of money to open the way, those jailers will turn a blind eye. Things happen all the time in the cell.Otherwise, why are those female relatives afraid of entering the prison cell, because it is equivalent to losing their reputation in the eyes of the world after entering.These tricky common people are clear.
Zhao Baihe had to deal with so many people by himself, and soon his body couldn't hold on, and he had a miscarriage.She is also in good health, and she didn't die after being tortured like this.During this process, Du Yiming protested at first, but he got beaten up, and then he kept silent, pretending that he was blind and deaf, and pretended not to see Zhao Baihe's plight.
Zhao Baihe recalled the hellish life in the cell during this period, and looked at Du Yiming's ruthless and ungrateful appearance, with deep regret in his heart, "If I knew this, I shouldn't have saved you that day, I should have let you You fend for yourself."
Perhaps her life would have been better if she hadn't met Du Yiming.
The people in Heishanzhai hated Zhao Baihe no less than Du Yiming, and even hated Zhao Baihe even more.After all, they are all from the generation of Zhao Baihe's grandfather and uncle, and they basically watched her grow up. Wan Wei said angrily, "Then Du Yiming is indeed a wolf-hearted scum, but you, Zhao Baihe, are not much better."
"I love you so much, I have treated you like a granddaughter since I was a child, but for a man, you ignored us uncles and grandpas, and even poisoned us!"
"Your father was so kind to you. He asked for the stars and not the moon since he was a child. If it wasn't for you, he would have violated his principles and killed the champion. But you are good. After you marry, you are afraid that people will find out. The cottage was completely broken, and he never came back to see us."
"Before your father died, he was still thinking about you, but you were so heartless that you refused to come back to see him off for the last time, so that he would die with regret. After he died, not only did he not keep his filial piety, but he also hang out with this Du Yiming. He died only two Moon, you have a body."
"An unfilial and shameless woman like you is a perfect match for Du Yiming, who kills his wife and daughter. They are a perfect match."
Only then did the onlookers realize that the famous Aunt Zhao was actually the daughter of the village owner of Heishan Village. Looking at what the Zhao family had done, it was really no better than Du Yiming.
Wan Wei spewed out all the anger in his heart in one breath, and he felt very happy after he finished speaking what was in his heart.
Zhao Baihe opened his mouth and said, "What poisoning? I didn't?"
Wan Wei looked at her in disgust, "At this point, you still want to deny it! The seven steps were specially assigned to you for self-defense because we were worried that you would be bullied outside. Who knew you would actually use them on us. "
Thinking of the whole Heishan village, which almost fell on her and Du Yiming, Wan Wei wanted to strangle them to death.The only thing that comforts him is that before he dies, he can still see the retribution of these two people.
It was only at this time that Zhao Baihe figured out why, why the people from Heishanzhai who had loved her since she was a child turned their faces ruthlessly, and came to the court to continue to add insult to injury and sue them, so there was another reason.
She just felt aggrieved, the reason why she stayed away from them was because she didn't want her past to be exposed, but she really never wanted them to die.
"Grandpa Wan, I really didn't poison you! How could I treat you like that?" She turned her head and looked at Du Yiming bitterly, her eyes no longer had the tenderness of the past, "You must have poisoned Heishanzhai , only you know where the Qibubao collection is."
This matter was not done by Du Yiming at all, of course he couldn't admit it, and said directly: "Don't rely on me for what you do yourself."
Zhao Baihe couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed over. Although her hands were bound by iron chains, it didn't prevent her from grabbing Du Yiming's face, "I'm going to kill you!"
Zhao Baihe's actions were too sudden, and Du Yiming was also a frail scholar, so he really couldn't escape. After being hit hard several times, he screamed, "You lowly maidservant! Let me go!"
In fact, Sun Hong should have asked Zhao Baihe to be pulled away immediately, but who made him also look down on Du Yiming's character? After he was caught by Zhao Baihe, he coughed and let The man pulled the two of them apart.
So far, the case has become very clear.Both Du Yiming and Zhao Baihe were accused of murdering Yang Yimeng, the number one scholar.Du Yiming is also charged with murdering his wife.However, Sun Hong felt that even if there were two more crimes, he would still be dead, at most, the method of death would be different.
Everyone in the capital knew that the crimes of these two people were unforgivable.
Zhao Baihe was in the cell during this time, so she couldn't cut her nails at all. Her nails were long and sharp, and she was a deadly weapon. In addition, she didn't show any sympathy when she attacked, and every claw wanted to grab Du Yiming's face off. .So now Du Yiming is not in normal misery, the wounds are turned out, dripping with blood, and he can no longer see his handsome appearance in the past.
Du Yiming bared his teeth in pain.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Baihe was relieved.She was going to die, and before she died, she had to vent her anger.Her hands subconsciously stroked her empty abdomen, and her child still couldn't come to this world in the end.
But it's fine if he wasn't born, with a pair of sinner parents like them, the child's life will be difficult in the future, anyway, she will drag Du Yiming to the underworld to find him sooner or later.
Sun Hong in the hall flipped through today's recorded confession - these will have to be read by His Majesty at that time, after all His Majesty is also very concerned about this matter.The marble man even wanted him to pass on the case.
Sun Yang knew this well, but he just wanted to take credit for it. He is not a person without a background, so how could he obediently give up his credit.
He coughed and asked the yamen guard to take the two of them back to the cell again.
While being pulled down, Du Yiming's eyes fell on the indifferent Yun Xi, and he couldn't help shouting: "Yun Xi, hurry up and plead for father, no matter how much I have wronged, it is still your father! If there is no me, Where will you be born."
"As a father, it's his right to deal with his daughter! At least you didn't die at that time, didn't you?"
Its shameless face amazes everyone who sees it.
Yun Xi sneered - did Du Yiming really think that if he put pressure on her in public, she would obediently submit?It's really a beautiful idea.
There was a cold light in her eyes, "When you killed my mother, when you paid me to kill me, we didn't have the so-called father-daughter relationship."
"Heaven and earth, master and master, you are in front of your father, you committed such a crime of deceiving the king, you should try to atone for yourself instead, but you still want to have someone intercede for you, it shows that you have no so-called remorse at all. .If a sinner like you can be forgiven, wouldn't that tell everyone that they can break the law as much as they want?"
"The emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. Could it be that you are still greater than the emperor?"
When Yun Xi spoke, everyone nodded repeatedly - this is the truth.Could it be that because Du Yiming has the princess's daughter, no matter how big a mistake he makes, it's okay?The laws of the Great Chu were useless.
What everyone looked down upon was that when Du Yiming bought Xuemeimen, he never thought that Yun Xi was his daughter. Now that something happened, he only wanted to ask for help. It was really shameless.
Many people scolded him directly.
Seeing that Yun Xi was unmoved, Du Yiming immediately shifted his gaze to Yang Yurong behind Yun Xi.
right!And Yu Rong!Yu Rong was soft-hearted, and she would definitely not be the same as Yun Xi, the cruel and ruthless girl who sat and watched him die.
He looked at Yang Yurong pleadingly, "Yurong, Daddy's good daughter. Please plead with your sister. Daddy really knows his mistake. Daddy will repent for the rest of his life. At that time, our family can continue to live in harmony. Beautiful day."
"Father spoiled you so much since childhood, is it possible that you want to learn from your sister? How can you be so unfilial and cruel?"
Yang Yurong looked at him with disappointment in his eyes: she had been proud of her father since she was a child, but she never expected his father to look like this.
She shook her head and said, "Father, you still don't feel that you did something wrong. My daughter really can't do anything." Pleading with her sister to save someone, she really couldn't do such a thing.
Seeing that all hope was gone, Du Yiming couldn't help but cursed: "You two wicked girls, if you knew this, you shouldn't have let the two of you survive in the first place."
Yun Xi directly stuffed a handkerchief of her own to Yu Rong, and wiped her eyes with a ginger water handkerchief. Her eyes turned red instantly, and her voice choked up, "You don't have to embarrass Yu Rong. Even if Yu Rong pleads, I won't agree. Yes. I am a little girl, but I don’t have the ability to change the laws of Great Chu.”
"What's more, I don't want to intercede for you. I'd rather be unfilial to you than let my mother who died in vain be chilled."
Du Yiming wanted to say something more, but the yamen servant had already blocked his mouth quickly and dragged him and Zhao Baihe down together.
When he leaves the cell next time, it will probably be the time for his and Zhao Baihe's execution.
Looking at his distressed figure being dragged down, Yun Xi said to Sun Hong: "After the execution, please let me know so that I can collect the body for him. This can be regarded as fulfilling the last fate of father and daughter."
When Du Yiming's execution time is set, there will definitely be a lot of rumors, how could Yun Xi not know.She just said this in public on purpose so that people could see that although Du Yiming was unkind and unrighteous, she still cared about the last bit of her feelings.
There's no way, the world likes to eat this kind of thing, so she can only bear with it and make this gesture.After getting the corpse, he will casually expose the corpse in the wilderness, and then get him an empty grave.
As for the worship every year, let alone think about it.
The only thing that gave her a headache was that she hadn't completely severed ties with Du Yiming yet, and after Du Yiming died, she would have to keep mourning for 27 months.Thinking of this, Yun Xi became very upset.
Walking out of the yamen and returning to the carriage, Yun Xi said to the unhappy Yu Rong, "You should have just made a symbolic pleading, anyway, I wouldn't agree."
Yu Rong shook her head, "That's not okay, wouldn't that be putting all the blame on my sister?" She pursed her lips and said, "I can't do such a thing by stepping on my sister to make myself famous."
Her eyes were slightly red, "Father, she also hurt me. At least, I will see him off before his execution."
There is no need to hunt down Yun Xi, no matter whether Du Yiming is pretending or not, he has also shown the image of a loving father to Yu Rong for more than ten years, so it is normal for Yu Rong to be sad.
Yun Xi actually wanted to stop it. After all, seeing that kind of scene with her own eyes would probably create a psychological shadow for the little girl.But if Yu Rong is stopped, maybe there will be a lifetime of knots.
She nodded, "I'll have someone send you there then." When the time is confirmed, let Li Qiu send Yu Rong there. If Yu Rong's expression is not right, even if you knock her out, you have to bring her back.
Back at the mansion, Yun Shen had already returned from the palace, Yun Xi hurriedly ordered the kitchen to make some dishes that girls like to eat on weekdays, and then told Yun Shen about the affairs in the yamen.
Yun Shen knew that she didn't care about Du Yiming at all, and the only thing she cared about was Yu Qingran, "Okay, I'll take a rest in a few days, and I'll go to Jiulongpo with you then."
At least Yu Qingran's body must be found - although it is very likely that it has turned into a bone.
As for Du Yiming...
Yun Shen's eyes narrowed slightly, but who knows if Du Yiming will say anything messy during the execution, just in case, it's better to do something first, at least make him speechless that day It's good to come.
……
Sun Hong quickly wrote down the whole process of the case into an excerpt, and sent it to Chu Xiyuan along with the confession.
A few days later, Chu Xiyuan decreed that Du Yiming was originally to be sentenced to death, but for Yun Xi's sake, the sentence was changed to hanging.As for Zhao Baihe, he was beheaded without a doubt.The time is set in three days, which is July [-]th.Before the execution, they paraded through the streets for a whole day.
Although hanging and beheading are death, there is still a slight difference between the two.Beheading is generally reserved for very serious crimes because it does not preserve the integrity of the body.
Yun Xi had never pleaded for mercy at all. After hearing the will, she was slightly taken aback, and realized that it was probably Yun Shen who helped her move.
Outsiders didn't know what it was, but praised her instead.
On the day of the execution, Yun Xi didn't go out at all, but stayed at home.On the contrary, Yin Dan went out to have a look, and when she came back, she told her that when the two were paraded through the street, they were smashed to the ground, which showed that the common people hated them to the extreme.
An hour later, Yu Rong, who gave Du Yiming a meal of decapitation, came back.Her eyes were red and swollen, obviously from a lot of crying.
Yun Xi comforted her and gave her some soothing soup. After she finished crying, she drank the soup again and soon became sleepy, so she went back to her room to rest.
Yun Xi's eyes unconsciously fell outside the door.After Du Yiming died completely, she couldn't talk about sadness, nor happiness, but a touch of melancholy emerged.
She rubbed her temples, perhaps due to the busyness of the past few days, she felt rare tired both physically and mentally.
Human death is like a lamp being extinguished, no matter how much grievances and hatreds were in life, they cannot be brought to the ground after death.
She said to Yin Dan: "Buried his body at random."
She changed her mind in the end, but this was her last bit of kindness towards Du Yiming. It was impossible for her to burn paper money for her.
She added, "You don't need to tell me where the burial is."
Yin Dan nodded, somewhat understanding her current mood.She added, "Then do we have to observe filial piety in our mansion?"
Yun Xi pursed her lips, a slight displeasure appeared on her face—Du Yiming was dead, she wanted to sever the relationship, she was afraid she would be called heartless.She sighed and said, "Choose some more plain clothes and come out."
Yun Shen has already paved the way for her, and she can't give up all her previous efforts.Isn't it just for show?She's the best at it!
……
As a son-in-law, Yun Shen had to keep Du Yiming's filial piety for three months.Of course, the husband and wife are just putting on a show outside, closing the door and doing what they should do.
Yun Xi felt that the only advantage of keeping filial piety was that life was much quieter.Everyone in the capital knows that she is in the filial piety period, and no one who is not good-looking will post a post for her to go to the banquet.The good thing for Yunshen is that he won't have to socialize for the next three months.
He had very good reasons for refusing.
When it was time for him to rest and take a bath, Yun Shen followed what he had said before, and brought Yun Xi to Jiulongpo.
Jiulongpo is at least 200 meters high, and there will be absolutely no bones left when it falls.
Yun Shen and the others walked directly to the bottom of the cliff by another road. The scenery at the bottom of the cliff was very ordinary, just a large grassland with overgrown weeds.
Yun Xi took a look, but really didn't see any bones.However, it is also possible that it has been covered by the land.
She sighed and said: "Before I came here, I had a thought that there might be a large lake underneath, and then my mother fell into the water directly and survived." Her mother can swim.
In fact, she really thought too much, not every cliff is a lake.
Yun Shen held her hand, bringing her a touch of comfort.
Yun Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, and said in a low voice: "Actually, I'm not very sad, after all, I've been mentally prepared."
The one who is really going to be uncomfortable is probably the upcoming Mrs. Yu.Madam Yu had previously held the slightest thought that her daughter was still alive, but now she has completely given up on it.
Yun Shen ordered, "Dig this piece of ground three feet." You have to dig it out!Anyway, what he lacks most is people.
Yun Xi said: "Go and look for those around here too."
The two of them ordered, and the subordinates naturally obeyed obediently.
Yun Xi couldn't be here and watch them dig the soil for a day.
The two stood here for a while and then went back.
The next day, Mo Yan and Yun Xi reported that they had found a dead bone. Judging from the skeleton, the deceased was a woman in her 20s.Yu Qingran was only in her 20s when she died.
Yun Xi was startled, with a sad expression on her face, "Bury her well."
After Qing Ran's body was buried, Yun Xi even went to burn a stick of incense for her, and said many things to her in her heart.Du Yiming has already suffered retribution, so she doesn't have to worry about it.She also told her that she had helped Yu Qingran find her biological parents, and told a lot about Mrs. Yu.However, Yun Xi felt that what Yu Qingran missed most before her death was probably her biological daughter, Du Yunxi.
The original body's soul is gone, and Yun Xi can only promise her that she will live a good life.
She also sprinkled Yu Qingran's favorite orchids around Yu Qingran, and only hoped that in the coming year, she would be surrounded by orchids everywhere.
After the worship was too green, Yun Xi returned to the mansion, only to find that the servant Li Ren was holding the imperial decree in his hand, and smiled slightly, "The princess can be regarded as letting me wait for a while, but because of this, I can eat the snacks in the Yun mansion. It’s not in vain that I specifically asked for the job of proclaiming the decree.”
A servant behind him reminded, "My lord, you can't call me the princess anymore."
Li Ren smiled slightly, "Yes, it's time to call you princess now."
"Eh?" Yun Xi couldn't react.
Li Ren opened the imperial decree——Yun Xi subconsciously accepted the decree.
Chu Xiyuan directly canonized Yun Xi as a princess this time - this time, no one really has any objections, because the cowpox can be said to have contributed to Qianqiu Sheji.
In the imperial decree, Yun Xi was greatly praised with beautiful flowers, but Yun Xi was thick-skinned, but she didn't blush from the praise.
The only thought that flashed in her mind was: she could be regarded as promoted.Yun Shen is about to be promoted to Prince Consort.Well, he has always thought that a son-in-law sounds better than a county horse.She knew in her heart that the princess' canonization was not only because of cowpox, but also because of the previous credit for transforming guns.
Li Ren smiled gently, "Your Majesty will send related rewards in two days." For example, fields and the like... and the expansion of the mansion.The regulation of the Princess Mansion is different from that of the Princess Mansion.
Yun Xi smiled, it was indeed a great joy to be canonized as a princess.
She stood up, took the imperial edict, a sudden dizziness hit her, and Yun Xi felt as if her whole body was plunged into darkness in an instant.
She fell straight down, and Shuang Jiang next to her subconsciously caught her, with a trace of fear remaining on her face.
