Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 1135 Overthrowing Peng Ze, Sacrifice His Death (4)
The voice stopped abruptly again.

She held the sword in one hand, but suddenly raised the other hand to cover her eyes, so that Song Chuxi could not see the tears in her eyes and the painful expression that was almost twisted.

Song Chuxi suddenly understood that during that time, before Song Chuqi left home, something terrible must have happened.

Song Chuqi didn't cry, she just kept silent.

From the very beginning, she was not the kind of weak woman who needed to express her emotions with tears. What's more, after so many years, walking alone in the dark and lonely, she had already worn out her daughter's heart.

After a long time, she slowly lowered her arms again.

"Sister, what happened?" Song Chuxi couldn't help asking.

"He—he's dead!" Song Chuqi said, she pursed her lips vigorously, her eyes were cold, "On the morning of the second day after being hired by Duanmu's house, I suddenly heard the news of his death. Half a year before that, we Just separated, I still remember the expression and eyes when I rode away that day, he stood at the fork in the road to see me off, but suddenly there was news of his death. I didn't believe it, I didn't believe he would be so easy He died, originally I left home in a hurry, just wanting to meet him and break the rumor, but—but—"

However, he is really dead.

When she saw his lifeless face in the coffin, at that moment, the sky fell apart, and all the beautiful illusions were shattered in an instant.

The person she loved was lying there stiff and straight.

He would never see her face again, and he would never speak to her with that uniquely mellow and gentle voice.

It won't even take long for his body to rot and turn into ashes, completely disappearing in this vast world.

At that time, she turned around due to family responsibilities, and his fingers brushed her cheek for the last time. He knew her temperament, so he didn't say a word to keep her. He just said: "Chu Qi, if you are a man, and I If it's a woman, then I will follow you back to Nantang with a stern face."

Only this sentence.

She knew that although she didn't keep him, her position in his heart was more than anything else.

If he could give up for her, then——

She can't do it.

She chose her relatives, her own family, and she turned and left decisively.

And this turning around turned out to be a farewell to life and death.

If he was still alive, then she would definitely not turn back. She could be cruel and determined not to see him in this life, but she couldn't bear it, Yin and Yang were separated forever, and just watched him regretfully go on the road alone.

She once gave up on him once for the sake of the family, so that time, she also did not hesitate——

He turned his back on the precarious Song family behind him and never looked back.

Around September of the 13th year of Chengwu, Song Chuxi's thoughts were spinning, and he kept searching from his memory for the major events that happened among the countries during that time, and finally contacted Song Chuqi's current identity, and suddenly a name popped out of his mind .

Song Chuxi was startled, her eyes widened in astonishment, and she said in disbelief: "That person, he is—"

In September of the 13th year of Beidi's Chengwu, on Chongyang, an accident occurred at the family banquet of the Pengze royal family. The prince, Jimo Yu, accidentally drank poisonous wine, and was pierced through the heart by an intruding assassin's long sword, killing him on the spot.

Lord Peng Ze was already old and sick. Seeing the death of his eldest son who had placed high hopes on him, he also closed his eyes in the bedroom that night.

For a whole month after that, the royal court of Pengze was in turmoil, and all the princes and princes returned to Beijing one after another to seize the throne. A palace change caused the whole city of Yihai to flow into rivers of blood. It is ridiculous that the descendants of the Jimo family only cared about In order to snatch the throne, the corpses of the old emperor and the prince were left in the palace for more than half a month without paying attention.

The turmoil in Peng Zeguo Middle School was very tragic. Originally, Beidi was planning to take advantage of the fire to loot it, and wanted to take it down, but due to various reasons, it failed in the end.

Song Chuxi knew about this.

Even in response to the turmoil in Peng Zeguo, the emperor summoned Yin Shao to the palace overnight to discuss countermeasures.

The prince of Pengze is Moyu, a man of high caliber, wise and strategic, and loved by his subjects. He started to preside over state affairs when the old lord was seriously ill. He is a rare talent for an emperor.

His death once pushed Peng Ze's country into a situation where there would be no redemption.

All these years, Song Chuqi has been lurking in Pengze as the commander of Longtingwei. It is not without reason, and she also rescued Wenxin intentionally or unintentionally.

Contacting all kinds of things in the past, almost without her saying, Song Chuxi can already be sure——

The "he" Song Chuqi was talking about was most likely the Prince Peng Ze who died suddenly and unexpectedly, that year, Mo Yu.

My younger sister's thoughts are exquisite and clear, so Song Chuqi didn't explain too much, she just said: "These years, I have been dormant in Peng Ze's court, just to find out who was behind the assassination of him."

Although many years have passed, Song Chuqi still has frozen hatred floating in his eyes when he mentions this old incident again.

"Sister, do you suspect that the assassination of Prince Peng Ze is related to people within his royal family?" Song Chuxi frowned and asked.

"It is an indisputable fact that Jimo Sangnan seeks to usurp the throne. It doesn't take much effort to prove it. Moreover, Haili's vigilance has never been low. If no one cooperates with the outside, absolutely no one can kill with one blow. , so easily killed him." Song Chuqi said with a firm tone.

"Then you are—" Song Chuxi pondered, "You suspect what happened back then, and they have other accomplices?"

Song Chuqi took a deep look at her, and then said: "The blazing golden steel palm and the skills of consolidating internal strength that I am practicing now are all left by him back then. He not only has the talent for governing the country, but also has extremely high martial arts skills. When I went to Pengze, I secretly investigated the various forces around Jimo Sangnan and his son. Even if he had drunk poisonous wine by mistake, there are not many people in the world who can kill him with a single sword. I personally inspected his body, that sword was a veritable fast sword, he didn't even fight back, he was killed with one blow."

Song Chuxi and Jimo Yu had no contact, so they didn't dare to make irresponsible remarks, so they could only consider the facts, "Is it possible that they bought murder? You have been with Jimo Sangnan and his son for so long, and you didn't ask him about the assassin he used back then. The exact origin of the killer?"

"They don't even admit that they tried to usurp the throne, so how can they bring up the old story again?" Song Chuqi said with a cold tone, "It's a pity that I rushed there too late, and all the traces related to the assassination that night were deliberately wiped away. It's gone. I know that even if I track down the real culprit behind the scenes, it won't help, but at least——I can't tell him to go away without knowing why!"
