Chapter 627 Still Compromised

what?
Chen Yixin died?

Yuan Deyin and Jun Yu hurriedly opened the door and went out.

They came to Chen Yixin's courtyard, only to find that the entire mansion had gathered here.

They wanted to go into Chen Yixin's boudoir.

As a result, Chen Shu stood in front of them.

"You two, my niece was killed by you, and you have the face to come here? Come, send them to the officials!"

As soon as Chen Shu finished speaking, a group of people surrounded him, intending to take Yuan Deyin and Jun Yu away.

"What are you doing!"

At this moment, Chen Ping gave a cold shout.

Seeing his elder brother coming, Chen Shu hurried over and complained loudly: "Brother, you finally appeared. Chen Yixin died, and the doctor said that this woman poisoned her to death. No matter what Chen Yixin said, he was our Chen Yixin. People in the family, now that they have been poisoned to death, shouldn't these two people give us an explanation?"

Listening to Chen Shu's words, Chen Ping raised his head to look at Yuan Deyin and Jun Yu solemnly.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "Shu'er, don't care about the matters of these two guests. They are already dead, so don't worry about it so much, let Yi Xin go to the grave as soon as possible."

"Brother, how can you do this? This is about the face of our Chen family! Besides, the leader of the martial arts will come to ask for someone soon, so what should we do if we have no way to hand over someone?"

Chen Shu was annoyed in his heart, and said some words directly without thinking about them.

Martial arts leader?Hand over someone?

How is this going?

Yuan Deyin and Jun Yu had sharp ears, and they both heard what Chen Shu said.

What secrets do the Chen family and Wulin have?
Why didn't Chen Ping and Chen Yujing say anything at the beginning?
Noticing Jun Yu and Yuan Deyin's deep eyes on him, Chen Ping blushed and looked anxious.

He had no choice but to yell at the servants of the Chen family: "Why are you eating, why don't you send Miss Shu back to her yard?"

"You two, some small incidents happened in the mansion, which disturbed you. Or, you want to go back to rest, and I will explain to you tomorrow?"

"Patriarch Chen, in your eyes, the death of your second daughter is just a trivial matter? Then if it is Mr. Chen and Miss Chen who died today, can you still be so calm?"

Yuan Deyin just looked at Chen Ping with stern eyes, and then asked aloud.

Although she didn't have much contact with Chen Yixin, when she saw a father who was so cold towards his daughter, especially when this daughter blocked him, she felt worthless for him in her heart.

"You bitch, what do you mean? Are you cursing Jing'er and Sisi?"

Chen Shu, who was dragged to the door, could still hear Yuan Deyin's words, and she started to make a fuss again.

Chen Ping suppressed his face and clenched his fists tightly, as if he was enduring something.

"Patriarch Chen, it seems that it is no longer the business of your Ning family. This is related to my reputation. Since someone says that I killed the second lady, it is an insult to my innocence. I must investigate this matter clearly. .”

After Yuan Deyin finished speaking, she ignored the obstruction of the servants of the Chen family and quickly pushed the door open.

Chen Ping wanted to stop him, but Jun Yu took out a sword and put it on his neck.

"Patriarch Chen needs to think carefully about whether or not he should take a step forward."

Chen Ping's face turned from red to pale, and he no longer dared to take a step forward.

Others also looked at this scene with horror on their faces.

What is the origin of these two people, how dare they be so arrogant in the Chen family!
When Chen Shu saw this scene at the door, her face also became gloomy.

The eldest brother is so confused that he actually lured wolves into the house.

"Quick, hurry up and inform the magistrate." She immediately turned around and told her confidants.

Here, the vowel opened the door and walked inside step by step.

Every time she took a step, she felt that the room was a little colder.

Finally, bypassing the screen, she saw this scene——

Chen Yixin was lying on the bed without any breath on her body.

And Chen Yujing was kneeling by the bed, holding her hand tightly with his big hand, staring at her face blankly, as if he had lost his soul.

"Master Chen."

Yuan Deyin frowned and called the other party softly.

Hearing the sound, Chen Yujing turned his head, his eyes were extremely red.

Yuan Deyin could still clearly see that there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

he is...

Are you crying?
"Princess, I beg you, I beg you, please save her."

He stood up and wanted to kneel down to Yuan Deyin.

But because he had held the same posture for too long just now, his body had become rigid.

Accidentally, the whole person fell heavily to the ground.

"Get up first." Yuan Deyin quickly helped Chen Yujing up.

After letting him stand, she hurried to check on Chen Yixin.

result……

"My condolences to Mr. Chen, the second young lady is powerless."

Yuan Deyin clenched his fingers slightly, and something flashed in his eyes.

"Impossible, she is still a living person, how can she be gone if she is gone."

Even though he had sniffed her, Chen Yujing just couldn't believe that she was dead.

Yuan Deyin's mood was not much better than his. She couldn't move her frown, as if she was thinking about something.

"Princess, those doctors all said that Xin'er was poisoned by drinking your medicine."

Chen Yujing looked at Yuan Deyin and said with a serious expression.

Yuan Deyin took out the silver needles from his body, and pierced Chen Yixin's body one by one.

After a long time, she finally opened her mouth: "Second Miss Chen did die of poison, but not because of this princess's medicine. Is this princess's words, Mr. Chen willing to believe it?"

Although Yuan Deyin asked in this way, she didn't hold out hope.

After all, the dead person was Chen Yujing's younger sister, and he cherished her so much.

Moreover, she was the only one who fed Chen Yixin medicine today, I am afraid that others would have already regarded her as a murderer.

But who knows, after she finished speaking, Chen Yujing nodded calmly.

"Princess, I believe in you."

what?
He trusts her?

Yuan Deyin looked at Chen Yujing with probing eyes.

"If you really wanted to die, you wouldn't have helped her in the first place. Besides, you have no motive to kill her."

Chen Yujing shook his head and said with a wry smile.

"Then Mr. Chen, who do you think will be the Second Miss?" Yuan Deyin looked at Chen Yujing fixedly.

Chen Yujing shook his head, looking very confused.

"I can't think of who it is. The heart has always been gentle and kind, and has never offended anyone. Who can be so cruel."

While talking, Chen Yujing's eyes turned red again.

"Master Chen, can you tell me why your aunt and your father are so hostile to her?"

Yuan Deyin pursed her red lips, and finally decided to ask some questions.

"you……"

Hearing Yuan Deyin's words, Chen Yujing looked up at her in shock.

Because he didn't expect Yuan Deyin to be aware of these things after only coming to Chen's house for a long time.

He gritted his teeth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

But Yuan Deyin did not intend to let him escape at all, she pressed her step by step, "Mr. Chen, at least one of you and the second lady is not a child of the Chen family."

"Princess, you..."

This time, apart from shock, Chen Yujing's face was a little more frightened.

Because he didn't expect that Yuan Deyin could even guess these things.

Seeing his expression, Yuan Deyin knew that some of his guesses were right.

"My princess sees that you treat the second lady differently, and the affection in her eyes is not light at all. You like the second lady, but you still like to marry her..."

"I..." Chen Yujing's body trembled, and he was almost speechless.

Because Yuan Deyin's guess is completely accurate.

"Perhaps because of this reason, your father and aunt don't like the second lady. The princess is also curious, why do you like your sister... Along the way, although you have done something stupid, the princess still thinks You are a sober person, you will not do anything against human ethics..."

"So this princess boldly guesses that some of you are not children of the Chen family. The second lady and the third lady look similar, so it is a bit far-fetched that the second lady is not born of the Chen family. Could it be that you are not a child of the Chen family? "

After finishing speaking, Yuan Deyin continued to stare at Chen Yujing, waiting for his answer.

Listening to Yuan Deyin's guess, Chen Yujing felt bitter.

This family matter of theirs was clearly seen by outsiders.

This little princess has an exquisite heart.

"Princess, you are right. I am not the real son of the Chen family. At that time, my father and mother were pregnant for many years, but they never gave birth to a child, so they brought me to raise me..."

Chen Yujing smiled wryly, and then began to recall his own memories.

"Later, my mother was pregnant, and they wanted to send me back. They never thought that my mother gave birth to a daughter, and my father's idea of ​​'successor' was lost again. Moreover, my mother's body was still sick, and the doctor said it was very serious. It’s hard to have children anymore, so as a last resort, my father left me again.”

and many more……

He just said that after giving birth to a daughter, his mother would no longer be able to raise her.

However, the Chen family obviously has two daughters.

Could it be...

"Second Miss is not your own?" Yuan Deyin asked sharply.

"Well, when Sisi was born, her health was extremely bad. Some people said that the Chen family had offended too many villains over the years, and everyone blamed this child. At that time, the mother's younger sister Difficult childbirth, giving birth to a daughter and dying...the mother took that child to raise her."

Chen Yujing said with a wry smile.

"That child is the Second Miss, right? It turns out that their respective mothers are sisters, no wonder they look a little similar. But, according to your statement, Chen Sisi was born first, so why did she become the Third Miss? "Yuan Deyin looked serious.

"That's because the father felt that since he was an adopted child, he was not a son, so he didn't need to cherish him. Therefore, he claimed that she was the second young lady, so as to protect his younger sister from bad luck."

Chen Yujing lowered his head, his tone was even more sad.

Xin'er, from childhood to adulthood, really had a hard time.

"Originally, my father and the others didn't have much hostility towards Xin'er, until one time, my mother took Xin'er to the temple to offer incense, but on the way back, there was a heavy rain, the carriage rolled down the mountain, and my mother was seriously injured, lying on the bed for half a day. He passed away within a month. For this reason, my father felt that Xin'er was an evil star."

Chen Yujing glanced at Chen Yixin who was on the hospital bed, her voice was already choked up.

"Second Miss was just a little girl back then, and she didn't want such a thing to happen, how can she be blamed?" Yuan Deyin snorted coldly.

She could not agree with Chen Ping's way of pushing all the faults on a child.

"That's right, things that outsiders can understand, but my father and aunt just can't understand. Over the years, they have been extremely indifferent to Xin'er, but Xin'er has endured it and is silently filial to them."

Chen Yujing held Chen Yixin's hand, tears streaming down her face.

"The maid said, your aunt introduced you to her boudoir friend to be your wife, but you didn't want to, so she annoyed you, and even vented her anger on the second lady. I'm afraid outsiders might misunderstand, it's not a boudoir. My friend, that person is Miss San, right? They all want you to marry Miss San."

Yuan Deyin continued to speak, her tone extremely firm.

"That's right," Chen Yujing took a deep breath, and had no intention of hiding it anymore, "Although they love me, I am still an outsider. If I really become the Chen family, I can only continue the Chen family if I marry Sisi." Incense..."

"However, the person I like is Xin'er. That night, I knelt in front of my father and aunt's house all night, but I failed to make them change their minds. Instead, they hated Xin'er even more. In order to suppress the family scandal, they claimed that I don't want to marry the person chosen by my aunt."

It is so.

Yuan Deyin sighed slightly.

Being adopted by a big family, in fact, Chen Yujing's situation is like walking on thin ice.

"There is one thing that the princess doesn't understand. If your father and aunt don't like the second lady and don't want her to be with you, just send her out of the mansion. Why do you let her stay in the mansion? Could it be because of the Miss San didn't stop the disaster enough?"

As Yuan Deyin spoke, she became a little more cold.

Chen Yujing smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Princess, that's actually just one of the reasons. The more important reason is that the leader of the martial arts alliance has taken a fancy to Xin'er, and my father wants to marry Xin'er."

Indeed it is!
In fact, Yuan Deyin had already guessed what Chen Shu said just now.

But when she heard Chen Yujing tell the truth, she was still very angry.

The leader of the martial arts alliance is already nearly 40 years old, and they want to marry Chen Yixin to him!

In order to keep the Chen family, Chen Ping was absolutely insane for this adopted daughter who was not his own and could not continue the family's incense.

……

Pushing open the door, Chen Ping looked at Shang Yuan Deyin's cold eyes, his heart trembled fiercely, and his face turned pale.

He quickly retracted his gaze, and then walked behind Chen Yujing.

He frowned, then sighed and said: "Jing'er, people are already dead, and it's useless to be sad. It's better to be buried early and buried in the ground early. My father has asked the Taoist priest to find a good place in the family cemetery. Before dawn, bury your heart as soon as possible."

"Father, why did you..."

Chen Yujing's eyes widened, and the emotion in his heart could not be expressed.

He was shocked that his father, who had such a big prejudice against Xin'er, agreed to let Xin'er be buried in the cemetery.

The second is shock, why is my father so anxious?
Good intentions are to be buried before dawn.

Did Xin'er live a life that was a bit too sad, even when she died, she had to be buried secretly.

"Jing'er, you also know the identity of your sister. She is not qualified to enter our family's cemetery. If it wasn't because she blocked me, she..."

Chen Ping's tone was severe, and he wanted to continue talking about it, but he realized that Yuan Deyin was here, so he had to lower his voice, trying to convince Chen Yujing as soon as possible.

"The Chen family still has so many descendants, and so many pairs of eyes watching. If we let them know that we were buried in Yixin's cemetery, how will they make a fuss? Jing'er, if you continue to mess around, I'm afraid Yixin will Not even a cemetery."

Hearing Chen Ping's stern words, Chen Yujing fell silent.

He seems to have been persuaded...

Because, he really didn't want Xin'er to die without a place to rest.

……

There is still an hour until the burial.

In the huge mourning hall, there was only a coffin and Chen Yujing kneeling there.

When Yuan Deyin and Jun Yu walked in, they saw Chen Yujing dressed in white, kneeling on the ground, burning paper in despair.

Because Chen Ping said that the funeral should be held in a low-key manner, no crying, no other people are allowed to burn incense and paper.

Only Chen Yujing sent Chen Yixin off alone.

"Master Chen, my condolences."

Yuan Deyin took a jar of wine from Uncle Jiuhuang and poured it on the glass on the ground. She did not forget to comfort Chen Yujing.

"Thank you." Chen Yujing's throat was so sore that his voice changed, but he still opened his mouth to thank Yuan Deyin.

Under such circumstances, only the princess and the regent can come to see her off.

"Eldest Young Master, have you ever thought that Second Miss may not want to enter the Chen Family Mausoleum." Yuan Deyin took the paper from Chen Yujing's hand and put it into the brazier.

"Princess, what do you mean..."

"Although I haven't really met the second lady, but from Zilan's mouth, the princess knows that she is a woman who likes freedom. If it weren't for the kindness of nurturing you in the Chen family, she might not stay here."

Yuan Deyin shook his head and said in a heavy tone.

She just went to see Zilan.

The little girl said, in fact, when she knew that the master of the family wanted to marry the second miss to the martial arts leader, she and the second miss planned to escape from the Chen family.

But at the last moment, Second Miss hesitated.

"Princess, what do you mean..."

"Just now, the princess saw you follow your father into the study, although the princess didn't know what you were talking about. But the princess wants to say, if the second lady is still alive, she absolutely doesn't want you make any compromises."

Yuan Deyin didn't look up, but said something calmly.

But Chen Yujing lowered his head lonely.

He did come to an agreement with his father.

The father allowed Xin'er to go on the family tree, the only requirement was——

He married Sisi.

He also agreed.

"I understand."

Thinking of something, he clenched his fists fiercely, then got up from the ground, and ran firmly towards his father's study.

The princess is right, Xin'er has been begging for perfection all these years because she doesn't want to embarrass him.

Now, he can't let Xin'er down.

Even if he can't marry Xin'er, he can't marry someone else.

Chen Yujing left, and only Yuan Deyin and Junyu were left in the mourning hall.

Suddenly a gust of cold wind blew, the candles flickered in the mourning hall, and the door was closed with a "bang".

With his back to the coffin, looking at the closed door, Yuan Deyin sneered.

"Second Miss has been lying in the coffin for so long, but is she bored?"
