Jie a husband is too arrogant
Chapter 145 It's over!
Chapter 145 It's over!
Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps coming towards the imperial study room, and Yi Gong said, "Quickly go and report to the emperor, Princess Yu is dead!"
Since Princess Yu had a scandal last time, she has been lingering on the couch by the wind and cold for several months, but she still couldn't survive this spring.
Although Xiao Yan was stripped of the throne, Princess Yu is still a royal after all, and her death is considered a major event.
Seeing the palace servants rushing in to report, Yulong turned her eyes and walked out of the palace quickly.
Maybe, she can fight for the last time for herself and the Yunnan Palace!
Coming out of the palace, Yulong sent someone to drive a car to Prince Yu's Mansion.
Prince Yu's mansion had just died and the princess was in a panic. As soon as Yulong entered, she heard Prince Yu Xiaoyan crying loudly.
Princess Yu often beat and insulted Xiao Yan, she didn't respect him as her husband at all, and had affairs with more than one man outside, which became a joke in Shengjing and even the royal family. Even so, Xiao Yan still regarded her as a treasure. After death, heartbroken, people don't know whether to lament him as stupid, or lament him as insane?
Why are all the infatuated species born in the royal family?
It happened that there was a lot of infatuation and all the entrustments were inhumane, so it didn't end well in the end!
Yulong sneered and walked in.
An hour later, Yulong walked out of Prince Yu's mansion, still feeling flustered, and suddenly asked, "Where is Master Ji now?"
The people around him lowered their heads and said, "Young Master Ji said he was going to Jingzhou, but his subordinates found out that he seemed to be going in the direction of Chongzhou."
Yulong frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Immediately send a message to Mr. Ji Chang, saying that the Yunnan Palace has been defeated, and I will be sent back to the palace by the emperor. The emperor will force Su Jiu to stay in the palace."
"Yes, my subordinates will do it right away!"
The man backed away without a sound, and disappeared in a few flashes.
After Hu Dapao and Xia Huan went in here, they reported the situation in southern Yunnan.
He took 20 troops and pacified southern Yunnan with almost no losses. Now Li Bin, the deputy general, is stationed in southern Yunnan with [-] troops, waiting for the imperial court to send officials to station and take over.
Southern Yunnan is set!
Xiao Lie had already obtained the information about Hu Dapao's great victory in southern Yunnan in advance, and now he was even more happy to hear the details of Hu Dapao's situation.
Liu Feng, the defender of southern Yunnan, intends to seek rebellion, but the Yunnan royal palace does not investigate, and removes the position of vassal king. The imperial court takes back all the privileges of the Yunnan royal palace and the control rights of southern Yunnan.
His son Xia Huanping made great contributions to the rebellion and inherited Xia Cang's title as the king of Yunnan, but he no longer has land and soldiers.
The Crown Princess Xia Yulong had framed the emperor's heir with malicious intentions, so she was suspended and returned to the palace, her title of princess was reduced, and she was demoted to a commoner.
The other is the reward for Hu Dapao.
The imperial decree has been drawn up, and it will be announced to the world after tomorrow's court!
Xia Huan understood that no matter whether it was Su Jiu or Xiao Lie, because of him, they did not kill all of Yunnan Palace, at least put the crime of treason on Liu Feng's head, and only gave Xia Cang a crime of no investigation!
This left a glimmer of life for the Yunnan Prince's Mansion, as well as a way out for him.
Xia Huan bowed down and kowtowed to thank him!
Let Hu Dapao retreat first, Xiao Lie left Xia Huan alone.
"Xia Shizi, it's not that I don't miss old love. The ambition of the king of Yunnan has been clearly revealed. Yulong married into the royal family, not only to stop fighting!" Xiao Lie was dressed in a deep purple brocade robe embroidered with dark patterns, with a dignified temperament, and said slowly .
Xia Huan knelt on the ground on one knee, and said softly, "Yes, I understand!"
"This time, I have left a way out for the Yunnan Palace, and will no longer pursue the Yunnan King's private contact with the six tribes of southern Xinjiang in order to plot against the law. After Xia Shizi returned, tell your father that I withdrew the vassal, but kept the Yunnan Palace. Noble title, letting him live in Shengjing for the rest of his life is already the greatest forgiveness, don't be obsessed with it!"
"Yes!"
"I know that everything you do is for Ah Jiu, so I won't treat you badly!"
Xia Huan raised his head slowly, "It's my duty to serve the boss, I don't need the emperor's gratitude!"
Xiao Lie pursed her thin lips lightly, and her black eyes were bottomless, "Xia Shizi, we are actually the same in some respects, but you are luckier than me. After all, you can still stay by her side in the name of relatives and friends. I hope Xia Shizi has always been able to silently protect her like this."
Xia Huan lowered his head and remained silent.
"Okay, Xia Shizi, let's go back!"
"Yes, I will leave!"
Coming out of the palace, Hu Dapao was still waiting for him outside the palace gate, looking back with a heavy expression, "What did the emperor leave you to say?"
Xia Huanjun's face was slightly pale, and he shook his head slowly.
"Where are you going?" Hu Dapao asked.
"Go back to the palace!" Xia Huan said calmly.
"I think you don't want to go back today!" Hu Dapao worried.
The king of Yunnan must have also got the news, and he still doesn't know how to settle the score with Xia Huan after returning.
"No, there are some things I have to face, and I can't escape!" Xia Huan turned his head and smiled, "Don't worry, he won't kill me!"
Probably not!Who knows?His son may not be more important to him than Shangnan!
The setting sun was about to set, and it shone on the glazed tiles of the palace gate, and sprinkled a faint golden color on the handsome face of the man.
The little tail that jumped up and down following Su Jiu's back eventually passed with the passage of time and would never come back again.
Hu Dapao suddenly felt sad, nodded slowly,
"Okay, take care of yourself!"
"Hurry up and go home to see your wife!" Xia Huan laughed, turned around and rode away.
It was evening when Xia Huan returned to the palace. Normally at this time, servants prepare dinner and come in and out.
Xia Huan entered the inner courtyard, and there were already servants waiting there, and said in a low voice, "My lord, my lord told you to go to the study immediately after you come back!"
Xia Huan nodded lightly, and walked towards the study.
Pushing the door open, Xia Cang stood with his hands behind his back, looking out the window.
The twilight came in through the window, dyed all his hair white, his complexion was gray, his fine eyes also lost the brilliance of the past, and his body was slightly bent, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden.
The two of them stood there for a long time without making a sound, until the night fell and the room was completely dark.
The figure standing in front of the window suddenly turned around, pressed his hand on the desk case, and slowly opened the bookshelf behind him.
Behind the bookshelf is a small dark room, which is arranged as an ancestral hall, enshrining the ancestors of the Yunnan Palace.
Xia Cang walked in slowly, his voice hoarse, "You come in too!"
Xia Huan followed in.
"Kneel down!" Xia Cang said coldly, looking at the tablets with his hands behind his back.
Without saying a word, Xia Huan knelt down with his knees bent.
"The rebellious son Xia Huan, who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors, is a great rebellious, unfilial son Xia Cang is here, and today he will be beaten to death in front of his ancestors to comfort the spirits of the ancestors!"
After Xia Cang finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xia Huan,
"Do you have something to say?"
"Nothing to say!"
"Okay!" Xia Cang said in a mournful voice, picked up a two-finger-thick leather whip from the side, turned his head slowly, raised his hand to raise the whip, and slammed it towards Xia Huan's body.
"Snapped"
There was a loud bang, trembling like thunder.
The clothes on Xia Huan's back were torn immediately, blood and flesh splashed out following the whip, his body only trembled, his back straightened, and he didn't say a word.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Xia Cang had no expression on his face, and with all his strength, he slammed towards Xia Huan.
In the dim silence, only the muffled sound of a whip hitting the flesh was shocking and creepy, and the bloody smell gradually spread in the dark room and permeated the night.
Xia Huan knelt there straight, dripping with blood and covered with welts, but he gritted his teeth and did not make a sound, neither begged for mercy, nor defended himself!
"Huan'er!"
A heart-breaking exclamation came, Princess Yunnan rushed in and threw herself on Xia Huan, "Huan'er!"
"Pfft..." Xia Huan spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to one side.
The concubine hugged him, looked at his bloody back, burst into tears in an instant, and stared at Xia Cang with hatred in her eyes, "You almost beat him to death before, do you want to let him die again now?" Are you satisfied if you interrupt the relationship between flesh and blood and father and son?"
Xia Cang pointed the whip at Xia Huan out of breath, "This rebellious son colluded with the court and destroyed my Yunnan Palace, I will beat him to death today!"
"Huan'er was born to me, why don't you beat us all to death!" The princess hugged Xia Huan tightly, crying bitterly.
"Get out of the way, old man!" Xia Cang hissed, his eyes bloodshot.
"I won't let you! It was you who lost my Huan'er back then, and I only found him in 12 years. Even if I die, I will never leave my son behind! To you, territory and title may be more important. It's important, but to me, Huan'er and Yulong are the most important! Yulong has already been ruined by you, do you want to ruin my son again?" The princess complained with tears all over her face.
"That is the foundation of the Yunnan Palace for hundreds of years!" Xia Cang hissed.
"The imperial court has long wanted to withdraw the vassal, but you insist on going your own way and want to fight against the imperial court. If according to your idea, southern Yunnan is an enemy of the imperial court, and the people in southern Yunnan will have no peace! You keep saying that it is for the sake of Yunnan. Nan, for the people in southern Yunnan, but everything you do is for your ambition and selfishness!"
Xia Cang's eyes shook, and he pointed at the princess and said, "Shut up! How could you slander me like this in order to protect this traitor?"
"Am I wrong? You want Yulong to marry the emperor, but you know that the emperor doesn't love Yulong at all, have you thought about her? Have you thought about her future? The emperor has even had feelings for Yulong. Hate, you still insist on going your own way! Now you vent all your anger on Huan'er, but in my opinion, it was Huan'er who saved the Yunnan palace!" The princess looked up at Xia Cang coldly, "Today I will protect you! Huan'er, if you hurt him, just step over my dead body!"
"You actually said that I harmed Long'er, she is my daughter, how could I harm her?" Xia Cang trembled.
"Others don't know, but I have been with you for decades, how can I not understand you? You want Yulong to marry into the royal family, is it really just to prevent the imperial court from withdrawing the feudal domain? Now that you have turned back on yourself and killed Long'er, you are still obsessed with it." ! Are you really willing to let our Yunnan Prince’s family be destroyed?”
Xia Cang's complexion changed slightly, his whole body trembled, the whip in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and it fell to the ground with a "bang", he turned around and knelt down facing the memorial tablet, tears poured down his face in an instant.
Seeing her husband like this, the princess was heartbroken, "The emperor has withdrawn the domain and killed Liu Feng, but he didn't arrest us. It's already a kindness. Our family together is more important than anything else!"
"You take Huan'er out and let the old man think about it for himself!"
The concubine wiped her tears and stopped talking, helped Xia Huan up and walked out slowly.
Xia Huan's face was pale, and he looked back at the crooked figure crouching in front of the incense table, the hatred in his heart just now disappeared without a trace.
In a daze, I seem to remember when I was very young, the tall and mighty man hugged him on the horse, and said solemnly, "Huan'er, you will be the master of this land in the future, you must love the people here, guard every inch of the land here. !"
However, from the moment he fell off the bloody cliff and was picked up by Su Jiu, his life was no longer Xia Huan's life.
Even if he returned to the Yunnan Palace, he could no longer be Xia Huan.
He has completely turned into Changhuan.
Even if he is really beaten to death today, he will not regret everything he has done!
They are all for the people and things they protect. What his father wants to protect is the Yunnan Palace, and what he protects is Su Jiu!
No one is greater than another, is a person smaller than a piece of land?
No!In his heart, Su Jiu is his god!
On April 21, the weather was gloomy, and at Maoshi, the east was just turning white.
The morning mist has not dissipated, hazy and cold
Xiao Lie came out from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, surrounded by the palace people, and walked towards the Hall of Zhengqian.
The man was dressed in a dragon robe, noble and elegant, with the innate aura of the emperor, and his steps were not in a hurry.
Passing through the Hall of Yonghe, in the hazy mist, suddenly a tall and strong man rushed over with a sword and shouted, "Xiao Lie, you hurt my wife, this king will kill you!"
The man was obese, but he had also practiced martial arts before. When he was irritated, he was extremely fast, and he arrived in front of him in an instant, stabbing at Xiao Lie fiercely with the long sword in his hand!
The few palace people behind caught up in panic,
"King Yu! His Royal Highness King Yu!"
The palace servants before and after Xiao Lie were even more dumbfounded, shouting loudly, "Guard, escort!"
"The king of Yu wants to plot against and assassinate the emperor!"
"Hurry up and escort!"
A burst of panic broke the tranquility of the morning, and the morning mist was stirred up, only to see Yu Wang Xiaoyan's ferocious sad and angry eyes, filled with crazy hatred.
Xiao Yan kicked away a palace attendant standing in front of Xiao Lie, and stabbed forward with the long sword in his hand!
Xiao Lie's black eyes were calm, and he only pushed back slightly. In a flash, suddenly a figure rushed over and stood in front of Xiao Lie. Hearing a "poof", the long sword pierced into the person The back, through the chest.
The bloody sword tip touched Xiao Lie's chest, and the blood beads slowly rolled down his bright yellow dragon robe.
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and was about to draw his sword to stab again, when the Forbidden Army surrounded him and took him down immediately.
"Xiao Lie, pay back my wife's life!"
"The throne is mine, I will kill you!"
"This prince is the eldest son. You have lied to your father, and you deserve death!"
Xiao Yan struggled vigorously, describing madness, and cursed Xiao Lie for being vicious.
The imperial guards quickly gagged his mouth, pressed him firmly to the ground, and trapped his hands and feet.
Yulong threw herself on Xiao Lie's body, blood poured out from her chest, staining their clothes red.
Xiao Lie supported her shoulders, his eyes were indifferent, "Yulong, why are you doing this?"
Yulong raised her head with tears in her eyes, "Yulong is willing to do anything for the emperor!"
"Is it for me?" Xiao Lie's eyes were cool.
"It's for the emperor, and also for the Yunnan Palace. You traded my life for the Yunnan Palace. Are you relieved? Yulong can die, and she can kneel down to plead guilty to Su Jiu, and I just beg the emperor not to withdraw the feudal domain!"
The palace servant stood around in panic, without the emperor's order, he was at a loss for a while.
Xiao Lie looked at her indifferently, and his tone was as cool as the morning mist, "Yulong, it's you who pushed yourself and the Yunnan Prince's Mansion to an end!"
"I was wrong, I was really wrong!" Tears rolled down Yulong's eyes, her expression was sad and regretful, "I shouldn't have killed Su Jiu, I shouldn't have made her an enemy, now I use my life to make up for the mistakes I made, and I only ask the emperor to see the old kindness and stop hating me!"
"What kind of old friendship do you have with me?" Xiao Lie asked.
"I know, you have always thought that I married you for the Yunnan Palace, but only I know that I really like you! I have liked you since I saw you at the palace banquet on the day I entered Beijing! I am jealous of Su Jiu , I hate Lan Zhihui for being favored by you, I plan everything just because I love you!" Yulong lowered her head slightly, leaning weakly on the man's shoulder, her voice gradually weakened, "Xiao Lie, no matter how indifferent you are to me, No matter how you set up a trick to lie to me, I still can't stop myself from liking you. If I can die in your arms today, it will be consummated! I just ask you to let my father and the Yunnan Palace go!"
The morning mist is cool and thin, and the man also has a cold air, his handsome face is indifferent,
"Yulong, for you to say these words, it shows that you have really come to the end of the road! Yes, you shouldn't plot against me, you shouldn't use any means for your ambition, and you shouldn't touch Ah Jiu! Ah Jiu is mine. Weakness, no one can touch you! When you killed Ah Jiu, you deliberately used bitter tricks, did you really think that I believed you? No, I hated you to the bone at that time, and wished to cut you into pieces immediately, but I really I know, it’s not yet time! I want you to see the most important thing lost bit by bit, but powerless, let you experience that kind of despair, you deserve to die!"
Yulong's body trembled slightly, her eyes were filled with grief.
He hated her so much!
"Yulong!" Xiao Lie supported her shoulders, and slowly lowered his palms, holding the tip of the sword that passed through his body, and said in a low voice, "The bitter trick can only be used once, you understand?"
As soon as his voice fell, he pressed the sword down forcefully.
Yulong's eyes suddenly widened, shocked and painful, she looked at the man in despair.
"You went to see Xiao Yan yesterday, and I already knew what you were going to do, and I was already waiting for you here! Your calculation is accurate, this sword is three inches above the heart, it can save your life, and you can tell me about this Fan Zhongqing, let me appreciate your life-saving grace and be moved by your true feelings, right?"
Blood gushed out of Yulong's mouth, and she stared at Xiao Lie with blood-red eyes, unable to speak.
"Since you want to pay for Su Jiu's life, I will let you do it, because you really deserve to die!" The man looked coldly, and waved the woman to push her away.
Yulong immediately rolled down the steps and fell heavily on the ground, with blood spurting out of her mouth.
"Even your pretentious statement makes me feel sick!"
Xiao Yan had already been suppressed, and the surrounding palace people stood with silence, their heads lowered, not daring to vent their breath.
In the dense fog, a clear figure slowly came out, Xiao Lie looked up, his bloodthirsty eyes suddenly became gentle.
Su Jiu walked up to Yulong, knelt down, stretched out Ruyu's fingers to lick the blood from the corner of her lips, and said softly,
"Yulong, everything is over!"
The blood on Yulong's face faded and turned into a dead gray. She slightly opened her eyes, looked up at Su Jiu, and panted, "Today, I can finally say it without any worries, Su, Jiu, I, really I hate you!"
I don't know when she started to hate this woman!
She is clearly born in a bandit, even if her real identity is only a merchant's daughter, why can she get the support of so many people and follow her to the death? Huan'er regards her more important than their relatives, for her, even Willing to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors!
Huan'er grew up with Su Jiu, and it may be understandable to depend on her, but what about Xiao Lie?
He has a noble status, so why would he love a commoner woman with all his heart? It is obvious that he and his status are the most suitable to be together!
She is not inferior to men in terms of literary talent and martial arts, and is loved by the people in southern Yunnan. Why is she suppressed by a woman who is nothing when she arrives in Shengjing!
Why has she done so much, but still can't get half of Xiao Lie's favor?
And Su Jiu didn't have to do anything, she already got the man to give her wholeheartedly!
She is really not reconciled!
She hated Su Jiu, more because of jealousy, jealousy that she won Xiao Lie's heart, and even more jealous that she lived so free and easy, without the burden and shackles of status, she could do whatever she wanted, and there was always someone doting on her behind her back.
That was what she wanted, but she would never get it, so she tried every means to knock down Su Jiu and destroy everything about her. !
But until now, she still doesn't understand why she lost?
Su Jiu's eyes were clear, she didn't have the pride of a winner, she just looked at her calmly, "Yulong, we have been entangled for so long, so long that my hatred for you has faded, but it seems that there must be something between us. There is a life-and-death ending!"
The corners of Yulong's lips curled up, as if she wanted to laugh, but she had no strength left.
"Su, Jiu, I lost, and you may not, you will win!"
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows, "I don't need to win, I just want to get revenge. As I said, I've always had revenge!"
Tears flowed from the tails of Yulong's eyes, but there was a different kind of light shining at the bottom of her eyes, like the splendor of the last moment of her life,
"Su Jiu, do you love Xiao Lie? You never loved him at all. Although I calculated and used him, I love him much more than you! The reason why you hate me is because I used Huan'er, Because I want to kill you, and I snatch Xiao Lie away from you, it doesn't matter to you. In your heart, Xiao Lie is not even as important as Huan'er. Su Jiu, you are not worthy of Xiao Lie affectionate!"
"Shut up!" Xiao Lie came over suddenly, with a gloomy face, pulled Su Jiu up, and pulled out the sword from Yulong's chest with a wave of his hand.
Blood splattered, and Yulong, who was already at the end of her strength, turned paler. She looked at Xiao Lie with misty eyes, as if she was hiding thousands of words, but she couldn't speak them anymore.
Her eyes gradually lost sight, and she fell to the ground on her back, looking at the blue sky above her head, as if she had returned to southern Yunnan in an instant.
At the foot of Luoyun Mountain, her father taught her horseback riding and archery, and told her that Huan'er was gone, and that she was the only heir to the Yunnan Palace, and she had to take all the responsibilities to protect the Yunnan Palace.
Father, Long'er has failed your expectations.
But Longer has really tried her best!
Really try my best!
The woman slowly closed her eyes, but there was a relaxed smile on her lips, as if she had returned to the place she wanted to go, without any shackles, without unwillingness, just the most ordinary woman.
Su Jiu looked at Yulong's body, raised her head and let out a long breath.
"Xiao Lie, I will leave the rest to you!" Su Jiu said calmly.
It's finally over, and it's time for her to find her husband, he has been waiting for her for so long!
"Ah Jiu!" Xiao Lie held her wrist, with deep eyes, "Stay with me, I will always reserve the position of queen for you, I promise you, I will not accept a concubine or draft, as long as you one person!"
Su Jiu freed her hand, took a step back, and looked at him calmly,
"Xiao Lie, Yulong is right about one thing. I really don't have any feelings for you. When I was with you, I thought I could work hard to like you, but after going through so much, I have figured it out. The person I love is Ji Yuxian, he has always been him. I am going to find him, you should be your emperor, we are still friends!"
Xiao Lie's eyes were painful, "Ah Jiu, what if there is no Xia Yulong? You promised me that you would marry me and be my princess. Is everything a lie?"
Without Xia Yulong,
Su Jiu shook her head, she didn't know if she would really marry Xiao Lie, but thinking about it now, the feeling she had with Xiao Lie was completely different from Ji Yuxian's.
When she is with Ji Yuxian, she will have a heartbeat and a feeling of joy, she thinks, that is love!
Providence so, let them all go back to their places.
Su Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, then turned and walked outside the palace.
She couldn't wait to see him!
"Ajiu!"
A man's deep and sad voice came from behind, which was heart-shattering.
But Su Jiu didn't turn around, she walked faster and faster, passed through the palace walls, and walked out impatiently.
"Where are you going, son?" Er Mao asked.
Su Jiu thought for a while and said, "Go back to Su's house first!"
"Yes!" Er Mao drove away.
Back home, Su Jiu quickly walked into the lady's room, took a step forward, threw herself into her arms, and said in a low voice, "Mother, Xia Yulong is dead!"
The eldest lady hugged her and nodded slowly, "The day is finally here!"
"Yes! Xiao Lie got what he wanted, and I have already avenged him!" Su Jiu raised her head and smiled, "Mother, I'm going to move to Ji Mansion."
"Well, go, you are Yu Xian's wife, it's time to go back!" The eldest lady had tears in her eyes, stroking her temples and black hair reluctantly.
"I will come back to visit my mother often! If you miss me, you can go to Ji's mansion to see me anytime!"
"Okay!" The eldest lady smiled lightly and nodded.
"Then I'll go and pack my things." Su Jiu said, hugged the eldest lady, and rubbed her arms coquettishly.
After packing up her personal belongings, Su Jiu took the carriage to Ji's Mansion.
Before Ji Yuxian came back, Su Jiu arranged all the books she was reading in the study, planning to wait here for him.
With Ji Yuxian not around, J Ze went to another door, the entire Ji Mansion was almost devoid of masters, and at night, Nuo Da's mansion was quiet.
At night, Su Jiu read in the study for a while, then went back to her room to sleep.
Lying on the bed after bathing, although the man is not there, his breath is everywhere.
The fragrance of fresh water and lotus permeated the air, Su Jiu closed her eyes with peace of mind.
Early the next morning, after Su Jiu had breakfast, she went to study in the study, just like when she was the young lady in the mansion.
The government's decree on the withdrawal of the feudal domain has been announced, the king of Yu was imprisoned for rebellion, the crown princess was killed by the king of Yu, and the body was sent back to the Yunnan palace.
Hearing that Xia Cang saw Yulong's body, he was so sad that he passed out at that time.
Su Jiu didn't care about those anymore, she just waited for her husband to come back.
She was alone in the study room, and the room was exceptionally quiet. Old Yu brought tea in, and then left softly.
Su Jiushu read a little absent-mindedly, got up and sat on Ji Yuxian's chair, and read the handwriting he usually wrote.
The more I read it, the more I like it. Her handwriting has matured, but compared with Ji Yuxian, it is still far behind.
There were several scrolls of ancient paintings in the painting jar next to it, one of which was sealed very carefully, Su Jiu knew that it must be the painting that Ji Yuxian drew for her.
He got up and went over, just as he was about to take it out, he saw something dropped behind the painting jar.
Su Jiu leaned forward and took a look, it seemed to be a piece of silk brocade silk handkerchief, which Ji Yuxian usually used.
The painting jar is very close to the low couch, he must have accidentally left it there.
Su Jiu picked it up casually, and Fang wanted to put it on the table when the hand holding the handkerchief suddenly trembled.
The pure white silk brocade was stained with blood, which had turned dark red after a long time, but Su Jiu could tell at a glance that it was indeed blood.
This is Ji Yuxian's handkerchief, the blood on it,
Su Jiu's face turned white in an instant, a sense of panic rose in her heart, and she walked out quickly, clutching her handkerchief.
She looked anxious and ran all the way, the servants thought that something happened, they all stopped there and became nervous.
Su Jiu went straight into Old Man Gu's yard and saw that he was loosening the soil for the herbs in the yard. She walked over with a few steps, her voice trembling slightly,
"Has the poison on Ji Yuxian's body flared up? Where did he go?"
Gu Lao squatted on the ground, holding a small hoe in his hand, raised his head slightly and looked sideways, saw the silk handkerchief in Su Jiu's hand, and slowly stood up.
"What happened to him?" Su Jiu grabbed Gu Lao's arm.
"It hurts!" Mr. Gu patted her hand off, brushed the dust off his body, sat back on the recliner, and squinted at her, "He doesn't want you to know, so you just wait, there are only a few people on the left and right." I'm going back to Beijing in two days!"
"Half-moon bite really happened?" Su Jiu's chest sank like cold lead, "He didn't go out this time because of business matters, right?"
"Yes, Jin Feng found clues about the antidote for Ban Yueba near Chongxi Mountain, and Ji Yuxian went there in person!" Gu Lao stopped hiding and told the truth.
Su Jiu's long eyelashes trembled, and she turned around and went out.
"Girl, where are you going?" Gu Lao got up awkwardly.
Su Jiu left the Ji Mansion without looking back, mounted his horse and ran out of the city.
She is going to find him!
She was in a panic, as if if she didn't look for him, she would never see him again!
Su Jiu swallowed the constriction in her throat, and galloped on the horse.
At this moment, Ji Yuxian was standing outside a bamboo house on the hillside of Chongxi Mountain, looking around.
The surrounding bamboo forests are towering, quiet and elegant, and a clear stream passes by the bamboo houses. Herbal medicines are planted in front of and behind the houses, and the medicinal fragrance is light and refreshing.
In the bamboo house, the pharmacy is on the left, and the tea room is on the right.
The tea sets in the tea room are neatly arranged, the curtains are covered with light gauze, the pure white futon is spotlessly clean, and there is a porcelain vase on the table made of bamboo, which contains dried peach blossoms.
There is a faint scent of medicine in the air, and the smell of non-eating fireworks is everywhere, which is not like the place where the man lives.
There was no one in the three bamboo huts.
Jin Feng walked in and said respectfully, "My lord, my subordinates have already inquired. The owner of the house has left Chongxi a few days ago."
"Where did you go?" Ji Yuxian asked quietly.
"Still investigating, but according to the villagers, the owner of the house often goes out for wanderings, but he will come back here after a while. Counting the days, he should be back in these two days!" Jin Feng asked after finishing speaking, " Shall we continue to wait here?"
The owner's whereabouts are uncertain. If he returns, he may leave soon. It is safest to wait here.
"Then wait for two days!"
Just as Ji Yuxian finished speaking, suddenly a guard hurried up the mountain and whispered something in Jinfeng's ear.
Jin Feng frowned, but he didn't dare to hide it, so he hurriedly told about the situation in Shengjing City.
Seeing Ji Yuxian's face darken, Jin Feng hurriedly said, "The news may not be accurate, how can someone play with Young Madam's temperament? Even if the emperor wants to stay, it is impossible not to keep it!"
The gloomy color in Ji Yuxian's phoenix eyes became darker and darker, she only thought for a moment, then strode out,
"Leave someone here to watch, I will return to Beijing immediately!"
"My lord, this subordinate feels that this matter is a bit strange, and my subordinate should inquire about the exact information immediately, and it won't be too late for you to return to Beijing!"
"No, go back now!" Ji Yuxian said coldly.
He knew that something was wrong, but he still couldn't feel relieved if he didn't see Su Jiu.
The defeat of the Yunnan Prince's Mansion was due to the conspiracy of Su Jiu and Xiao Lie. Su Jiu had already stopped complaining about Xiao Lie's deception.
It is no longer possible for Yulong to be a queen. If Xiao Lie really does something to Su Jiu, no one can predict.
So, he must go back!
If she voluntarily stays in the palace, he can give in, but if she doesn't want to, no one will touch her even if she uses up the entire Ji mansion!
Seeing Ji Yuxian's resolute attitude, Jin Feng had no choice but to leave the others behind, and after careful instructions, he and Ji Yuxian hurried back to Beijing.
Su Jiu rode for a day and a night, crossed Yuhu Mountain, and stopped in front of Jinghua River. She saw that a narrow path turned into a vast river, submerging the trees on both banks, and the water was rushing downstream. .
It was foggy in the morning, and Su Jiu hadn't slept all night, her hair was already dyed white by frost, and her delicate face was as if it had been covered with snow.
She walked along the river bank and found that the bridge had been submerged and could not be found at all.
While in a hurry, she saw a wooden boat parked behind a willow tree, which seemed to be used for ferrying people, so Su Jiu walked over quickly.
There was a temporary thatched hut behind the boat, and the people in the thatched hut were still soundly asleep before dawn.
"Brother?" Su Jiu called out.
The people in the shack woke up startled by the sound, came out rubbing their eyes, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"I have something urgent to cross the river, can you take the boat now, brother?" Su Jiu asked anxiously.
"The river is not crossing today, you didn't see the water is so fast, there must be another mountain torrent, let's go back!" The boatman waved his hand, and went back to sleep in the thatched shed.
"Brother!" Su Jiu shouted anxiously, "I have something urgent, I have to cross the river today, I can give you ten times the money!"
"I won't go even if I give you money. The mountain torrents will kill people!" The boatman said with a cold face.
(End of this chapter)
Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps coming towards the imperial study room, and Yi Gong said, "Quickly go and report to the emperor, Princess Yu is dead!"
Since Princess Yu had a scandal last time, she has been lingering on the couch by the wind and cold for several months, but she still couldn't survive this spring.
Although Xiao Yan was stripped of the throne, Princess Yu is still a royal after all, and her death is considered a major event.
Seeing the palace servants rushing in to report, Yulong turned her eyes and walked out of the palace quickly.
Maybe, she can fight for the last time for herself and the Yunnan Palace!
Coming out of the palace, Yulong sent someone to drive a car to Prince Yu's Mansion.
Prince Yu's mansion had just died and the princess was in a panic. As soon as Yulong entered, she heard Prince Yu Xiaoyan crying loudly.
Princess Yu often beat and insulted Xiao Yan, she didn't respect him as her husband at all, and had affairs with more than one man outside, which became a joke in Shengjing and even the royal family. Even so, Xiao Yan still regarded her as a treasure. After death, heartbroken, people don't know whether to lament him as stupid, or lament him as insane?
Why are all the infatuated species born in the royal family?
It happened that there was a lot of infatuation and all the entrustments were inhumane, so it didn't end well in the end!
Yulong sneered and walked in.
An hour later, Yulong walked out of Prince Yu's mansion, still feeling flustered, and suddenly asked, "Where is Master Ji now?"
The people around him lowered their heads and said, "Young Master Ji said he was going to Jingzhou, but his subordinates found out that he seemed to be going in the direction of Chongzhou."
Yulong frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Immediately send a message to Mr. Ji Chang, saying that the Yunnan Palace has been defeated, and I will be sent back to the palace by the emperor. The emperor will force Su Jiu to stay in the palace."
"Yes, my subordinates will do it right away!"
The man backed away without a sound, and disappeared in a few flashes.
After Hu Dapao and Xia Huan went in here, they reported the situation in southern Yunnan.
He took 20 troops and pacified southern Yunnan with almost no losses. Now Li Bin, the deputy general, is stationed in southern Yunnan with [-] troops, waiting for the imperial court to send officials to station and take over.
Southern Yunnan is set!
Xiao Lie had already obtained the information about Hu Dapao's great victory in southern Yunnan in advance, and now he was even more happy to hear the details of Hu Dapao's situation.
Liu Feng, the defender of southern Yunnan, intends to seek rebellion, but the Yunnan royal palace does not investigate, and removes the position of vassal king. The imperial court takes back all the privileges of the Yunnan royal palace and the control rights of southern Yunnan.
His son Xia Huanping made great contributions to the rebellion and inherited Xia Cang's title as the king of Yunnan, but he no longer has land and soldiers.
The Crown Princess Xia Yulong had framed the emperor's heir with malicious intentions, so she was suspended and returned to the palace, her title of princess was reduced, and she was demoted to a commoner.
The other is the reward for Hu Dapao.
The imperial decree has been drawn up, and it will be announced to the world after tomorrow's court!
Xia Huan understood that no matter whether it was Su Jiu or Xiao Lie, because of him, they did not kill all of Yunnan Palace, at least put the crime of treason on Liu Feng's head, and only gave Xia Cang a crime of no investigation!
This left a glimmer of life for the Yunnan Prince's Mansion, as well as a way out for him.
Xia Huan bowed down and kowtowed to thank him!
Let Hu Dapao retreat first, Xiao Lie left Xia Huan alone.
"Xia Shizi, it's not that I don't miss old love. The ambition of the king of Yunnan has been clearly revealed. Yulong married into the royal family, not only to stop fighting!" Xiao Lie was dressed in a deep purple brocade robe embroidered with dark patterns, with a dignified temperament, and said slowly .
Xia Huan knelt on the ground on one knee, and said softly, "Yes, I understand!"
"This time, I have left a way out for the Yunnan Palace, and will no longer pursue the Yunnan King's private contact with the six tribes of southern Xinjiang in order to plot against the law. After Xia Shizi returned, tell your father that I withdrew the vassal, but kept the Yunnan Palace. Noble title, letting him live in Shengjing for the rest of his life is already the greatest forgiveness, don't be obsessed with it!"
"Yes!"
"I know that everything you do is for Ah Jiu, so I won't treat you badly!"
Xia Huan raised his head slowly, "It's my duty to serve the boss, I don't need the emperor's gratitude!"
Xiao Lie pursed her thin lips lightly, and her black eyes were bottomless, "Xia Shizi, we are actually the same in some respects, but you are luckier than me. After all, you can still stay by her side in the name of relatives and friends. I hope Xia Shizi has always been able to silently protect her like this."
Xia Huan lowered his head and remained silent.
"Okay, Xia Shizi, let's go back!"
"Yes, I will leave!"
Coming out of the palace, Hu Dapao was still waiting for him outside the palace gate, looking back with a heavy expression, "What did the emperor leave you to say?"
Xia Huanjun's face was slightly pale, and he shook his head slowly.
"Where are you going?" Hu Dapao asked.
"Go back to the palace!" Xia Huan said calmly.
"I think you don't want to go back today!" Hu Dapao worried.
The king of Yunnan must have also got the news, and he still doesn't know how to settle the score with Xia Huan after returning.
"No, there are some things I have to face, and I can't escape!" Xia Huan turned his head and smiled, "Don't worry, he won't kill me!"
Probably not!Who knows?His son may not be more important to him than Shangnan!
The setting sun was about to set, and it shone on the glazed tiles of the palace gate, and sprinkled a faint golden color on the handsome face of the man.
The little tail that jumped up and down following Su Jiu's back eventually passed with the passage of time and would never come back again.
Hu Dapao suddenly felt sad, nodded slowly,
"Okay, take care of yourself!"
"Hurry up and go home to see your wife!" Xia Huan laughed, turned around and rode away.
It was evening when Xia Huan returned to the palace. Normally at this time, servants prepare dinner and come in and out.
Xia Huan entered the inner courtyard, and there were already servants waiting there, and said in a low voice, "My lord, my lord told you to go to the study immediately after you come back!"
Xia Huan nodded lightly, and walked towards the study.
Pushing the door open, Xia Cang stood with his hands behind his back, looking out the window.
The twilight came in through the window, dyed all his hair white, his complexion was gray, his fine eyes also lost the brilliance of the past, and his body was slightly bent, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden.
The two of them stood there for a long time without making a sound, until the night fell and the room was completely dark.
The figure standing in front of the window suddenly turned around, pressed his hand on the desk case, and slowly opened the bookshelf behind him.
Behind the bookshelf is a small dark room, which is arranged as an ancestral hall, enshrining the ancestors of the Yunnan Palace.
Xia Cang walked in slowly, his voice hoarse, "You come in too!"
Xia Huan followed in.
"Kneel down!" Xia Cang said coldly, looking at the tablets with his hands behind his back.
Without saying a word, Xia Huan knelt down with his knees bent.
"The rebellious son Xia Huan, who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors, is a great rebellious, unfilial son Xia Cang is here, and today he will be beaten to death in front of his ancestors to comfort the spirits of the ancestors!"
After Xia Cang finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xia Huan,
"Do you have something to say?"
"Nothing to say!"
"Okay!" Xia Cang said in a mournful voice, picked up a two-finger-thick leather whip from the side, turned his head slowly, raised his hand to raise the whip, and slammed it towards Xia Huan's body.
"Snapped"
There was a loud bang, trembling like thunder.
The clothes on Xia Huan's back were torn immediately, blood and flesh splashed out following the whip, his body only trembled, his back straightened, and he didn't say a word.
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Xia Cang had no expression on his face, and with all his strength, he slammed towards Xia Huan.
In the dim silence, only the muffled sound of a whip hitting the flesh was shocking and creepy, and the bloody smell gradually spread in the dark room and permeated the night.
Xia Huan knelt there straight, dripping with blood and covered with welts, but he gritted his teeth and did not make a sound, neither begged for mercy, nor defended himself!
"Huan'er!"
A heart-breaking exclamation came, Princess Yunnan rushed in and threw herself on Xia Huan, "Huan'er!"
"Pfft..." Xia Huan spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to one side.
The concubine hugged him, looked at his bloody back, burst into tears in an instant, and stared at Xia Cang with hatred in her eyes, "You almost beat him to death before, do you want to let him die again now?" Are you satisfied if you interrupt the relationship between flesh and blood and father and son?"
Xia Cang pointed the whip at Xia Huan out of breath, "This rebellious son colluded with the court and destroyed my Yunnan Palace, I will beat him to death today!"
"Huan'er was born to me, why don't you beat us all to death!" The princess hugged Xia Huan tightly, crying bitterly.
"Get out of the way, old man!" Xia Cang hissed, his eyes bloodshot.
"I won't let you! It was you who lost my Huan'er back then, and I only found him in 12 years. Even if I die, I will never leave my son behind! To you, territory and title may be more important. It's important, but to me, Huan'er and Yulong are the most important! Yulong has already been ruined by you, do you want to ruin my son again?" The princess complained with tears all over her face.
"That is the foundation of the Yunnan Palace for hundreds of years!" Xia Cang hissed.
"The imperial court has long wanted to withdraw the vassal, but you insist on going your own way and want to fight against the imperial court. If according to your idea, southern Yunnan is an enemy of the imperial court, and the people in southern Yunnan will have no peace! You keep saying that it is for the sake of Yunnan. Nan, for the people in southern Yunnan, but everything you do is for your ambition and selfishness!"
Xia Cang's eyes shook, and he pointed at the princess and said, "Shut up! How could you slander me like this in order to protect this traitor?"
"Am I wrong? You want Yulong to marry the emperor, but you know that the emperor doesn't love Yulong at all, have you thought about her? Have you thought about her future? The emperor has even had feelings for Yulong. Hate, you still insist on going your own way! Now you vent all your anger on Huan'er, but in my opinion, it was Huan'er who saved the Yunnan palace!" The princess looked up at Xia Cang coldly, "Today I will protect you! Huan'er, if you hurt him, just step over my dead body!"
"You actually said that I harmed Long'er, she is my daughter, how could I harm her?" Xia Cang trembled.
"Others don't know, but I have been with you for decades, how can I not understand you? You want Yulong to marry into the royal family, is it really just to prevent the imperial court from withdrawing the feudal domain? Now that you have turned back on yourself and killed Long'er, you are still obsessed with it." ! Are you really willing to let our Yunnan Prince’s family be destroyed?”
Xia Cang's complexion changed slightly, his whole body trembled, the whip in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand catties, and it fell to the ground with a "bang", he turned around and knelt down facing the memorial tablet, tears poured down his face in an instant.
Seeing her husband like this, the princess was heartbroken, "The emperor has withdrawn the domain and killed Liu Feng, but he didn't arrest us. It's already a kindness. Our family together is more important than anything else!"
"You take Huan'er out and let the old man think about it for himself!"
The concubine wiped her tears and stopped talking, helped Xia Huan up and walked out slowly.
Xia Huan's face was pale, and he looked back at the crooked figure crouching in front of the incense table, the hatred in his heart just now disappeared without a trace.
In a daze, I seem to remember when I was very young, the tall and mighty man hugged him on the horse, and said solemnly, "Huan'er, you will be the master of this land in the future, you must love the people here, guard every inch of the land here. !"
However, from the moment he fell off the bloody cliff and was picked up by Su Jiu, his life was no longer Xia Huan's life.
Even if he returned to the Yunnan Palace, he could no longer be Xia Huan.
He has completely turned into Changhuan.
Even if he is really beaten to death today, he will not regret everything he has done!
They are all for the people and things they protect. What his father wants to protect is the Yunnan Palace, and what he protects is Su Jiu!
No one is greater than another, is a person smaller than a piece of land?
No!In his heart, Su Jiu is his god!
On April 21, the weather was gloomy, and at Maoshi, the east was just turning white.
The morning mist has not dissipated, hazy and cold
Xiao Lie came out from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, surrounded by the palace people, and walked towards the Hall of Zhengqian.
The man was dressed in a dragon robe, noble and elegant, with the innate aura of the emperor, and his steps were not in a hurry.
Passing through the Hall of Yonghe, in the hazy mist, suddenly a tall and strong man rushed over with a sword and shouted, "Xiao Lie, you hurt my wife, this king will kill you!"
The man was obese, but he had also practiced martial arts before. When he was irritated, he was extremely fast, and he arrived in front of him in an instant, stabbing at Xiao Lie fiercely with the long sword in his hand!
The few palace people behind caught up in panic,
"King Yu! His Royal Highness King Yu!"
The palace servants before and after Xiao Lie were even more dumbfounded, shouting loudly, "Guard, escort!"
"The king of Yu wants to plot against and assassinate the emperor!"
"Hurry up and escort!"
A burst of panic broke the tranquility of the morning, and the morning mist was stirred up, only to see Yu Wang Xiaoyan's ferocious sad and angry eyes, filled with crazy hatred.
Xiao Yan kicked away a palace attendant standing in front of Xiao Lie, and stabbed forward with the long sword in his hand!
Xiao Lie's black eyes were calm, and he only pushed back slightly. In a flash, suddenly a figure rushed over and stood in front of Xiao Lie. Hearing a "poof", the long sword pierced into the person The back, through the chest.
The bloody sword tip touched Xiao Lie's chest, and the blood beads slowly rolled down his bright yellow dragon robe.
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and was about to draw his sword to stab again, when the Forbidden Army surrounded him and took him down immediately.
"Xiao Lie, pay back my wife's life!"
"The throne is mine, I will kill you!"
"This prince is the eldest son. You have lied to your father, and you deserve death!"
Xiao Yan struggled vigorously, describing madness, and cursed Xiao Lie for being vicious.
The imperial guards quickly gagged his mouth, pressed him firmly to the ground, and trapped his hands and feet.
Yulong threw herself on Xiao Lie's body, blood poured out from her chest, staining their clothes red.
Xiao Lie supported her shoulders, his eyes were indifferent, "Yulong, why are you doing this?"
Yulong raised her head with tears in her eyes, "Yulong is willing to do anything for the emperor!"
"Is it for me?" Xiao Lie's eyes were cool.
"It's for the emperor, and also for the Yunnan Palace. You traded my life for the Yunnan Palace. Are you relieved? Yulong can die, and she can kneel down to plead guilty to Su Jiu, and I just beg the emperor not to withdraw the feudal domain!"
The palace servant stood around in panic, without the emperor's order, he was at a loss for a while.
Xiao Lie looked at her indifferently, and his tone was as cool as the morning mist, "Yulong, it's you who pushed yourself and the Yunnan Prince's Mansion to an end!"
"I was wrong, I was really wrong!" Tears rolled down Yulong's eyes, her expression was sad and regretful, "I shouldn't have killed Su Jiu, I shouldn't have made her an enemy, now I use my life to make up for the mistakes I made, and I only ask the emperor to see the old kindness and stop hating me!"
"What kind of old friendship do you have with me?" Xiao Lie asked.
"I know, you have always thought that I married you for the Yunnan Palace, but only I know that I really like you! I have liked you since I saw you at the palace banquet on the day I entered Beijing! I am jealous of Su Jiu , I hate Lan Zhihui for being favored by you, I plan everything just because I love you!" Yulong lowered her head slightly, leaning weakly on the man's shoulder, her voice gradually weakened, "Xiao Lie, no matter how indifferent you are to me, No matter how you set up a trick to lie to me, I still can't stop myself from liking you. If I can die in your arms today, it will be consummated! I just ask you to let my father and the Yunnan Palace go!"
The morning mist is cool and thin, and the man also has a cold air, his handsome face is indifferent,
"Yulong, for you to say these words, it shows that you have really come to the end of the road! Yes, you shouldn't plot against me, you shouldn't use any means for your ambition, and you shouldn't touch Ah Jiu! Ah Jiu is mine. Weakness, no one can touch you! When you killed Ah Jiu, you deliberately used bitter tricks, did you really think that I believed you? No, I hated you to the bone at that time, and wished to cut you into pieces immediately, but I really I know, it’s not yet time! I want you to see the most important thing lost bit by bit, but powerless, let you experience that kind of despair, you deserve to die!"
Yulong's body trembled slightly, her eyes were filled with grief.
He hated her so much!
"Yulong!" Xiao Lie supported her shoulders, and slowly lowered his palms, holding the tip of the sword that passed through his body, and said in a low voice, "The bitter trick can only be used once, you understand?"
As soon as his voice fell, he pressed the sword down forcefully.
Yulong's eyes suddenly widened, shocked and painful, she looked at the man in despair.
"You went to see Xiao Yan yesterday, and I already knew what you were going to do, and I was already waiting for you here! Your calculation is accurate, this sword is three inches above the heart, it can save your life, and you can tell me about this Fan Zhongqing, let me appreciate your life-saving grace and be moved by your true feelings, right?"
Blood gushed out of Yulong's mouth, and she stared at Xiao Lie with blood-red eyes, unable to speak.
"Since you want to pay for Su Jiu's life, I will let you do it, because you really deserve to die!" The man looked coldly, and waved the woman to push her away.
Yulong immediately rolled down the steps and fell heavily on the ground, with blood spurting out of her mouth.
"Even your pretentious statement makes me feel sick!"
Xiao Yan had already been suppressed, and the surrounding palace people stood with silence, their heads lowered, not daring to vent their breath.
In the dense fog, a clear figure slowly came out, Xiao Lie looked up, his bloodthirsty eyes suddenly became gentle.
Su Jiu walked up to Yulong, knelt down, stretched out Ruyu's fingers to lick the blood from the corner of her lips, and said softly,
"Yulong, everything is over!"
The blood on Yulong's face faded and turned into a dead gray. She slightly opened her eyes, looked up at Su Jiu, and panted, "Today, I can finally say it without any worries, Su, Jiu, I, really I hate you!"
I don't know when she started to hate this woman!
She is clearly born in a bandit, even if her real identity is only a merchant's daughter, why can she get the support of so many people and follow her to the death? Huan'er regards her more important than their relatives, for her, even Willing to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors!
Huan'er grew up with Su Jiu, and it may be understandable to depend on her, but what about Xiao Lie?
He has a noble status, so why would he love a commoner woman with all his heart? It is obvious that he and his status are the most suitable to be together!
She is not inferior to men in terms of literary talent and martial arts, and is loved by the people in southern Yunnan. Why is she suppressed by a woman who is nothing when she arrives in Shengjing!
Why has she done so much, but still can't get half of Xiao Lie's favor?
And Su Jiu didn't have to do anything, she already got the man to give her wholeheartedly!
She is really not reconciled!
She hated Su Jiu, more because of jealousy, jealousy that she won Xiao Lie's heart, and even more jealous that she lived so free and easy, without the burden and shackles of status, she could do whatever she wanted, and there was always someone doting on her behind her back.
That was what she wanted, but she would never get it, so she tried every means to knock down Su Jiu and destroy everything about her. !
But until now, she still doesn't understand why she lost?
Su Jiu's eyes were clear, she didn't have the pride of a winner, she just looked at her calmly, "Yulong, we have been entangled for so long, so long that my hatred for you has faded, but it seems that there must be something between us. There is a life-and-death ending!"
The corners of Yulong's lips curled up, as if she wanted to laugh, but she had no strength left.
"Su, Jiu, I lost, and you may not, you will win!"
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows, "I don't need to win, I just want to get revenge. As I said, I've always had revenge!"
Tears flowed from the tails of Yulong's eyes, but there was a different kind of light shining at the bottom of her eyes, like the splendor of the last moment of her life,
"Su Jiu, do you love Xiao Lie? You never loved him at all. Although I calculated and used him, I love him much more than you! The reason why you hate me is because I used Huan'er, Because I want to kill you, and I snatch Xiao Lie away from you, it doesn't matter to you. In your heart, Xiao Lie is not even as important as Huan'er. Su Jiu, you are not worthy of Xiao Lie affectionate!"
"Shut up!" Xiao Lie came over suddenly, with a gloomy face, pulled Su Jiu up, and pulled out the sword from Yulong's chest with a wave of his hand.
Blood splattered, and Yulong, who was already at the end of her strength, turned paler. She looked at Xiao Lie with misty eyes, as if she was hiding thousands of words, but she couldn't speak them anymore.
Her eyes gradually lost sight, and she fell to the ground on her back, looking at the blue sky above her head, as if she had returned to southern Yunnan in an instant.
At the foot of Luoyun Mountain, her father taught her horseback riding and archery, and told her that Huan'er was gone, and that she was the only heir to the Yunnan Palace, and she had to take all the responsibilities to protect the Yunnan Palace.
Father, Long'er has failed your expectations.
But Longer has really tried her best!
Really try my best!
The woman slowly closed her eyes, but there was a relaxed smile on her lips, as if she had returned to the place she wanted to go, without any shackles, without unwillingness, just the most ordinary woman.
Su Jiu looked at Yulong's body, raised her head and let out a long breath.
"Xiao Lie, I will leave the rest to you!" Su Jiu said calmly.
It's finally over, and it's time for her to find her husband, he has been waiting for her for so long!
"Ah Jiu!" Xiao Lie held her wrist, with deep eyes, "Stay with me, I will always reserve the position of queen for you, I promise you, I will not accept a concubine or draft, as long as you one person!"
Su Jiu freed her hand, took a step back, and looked at him calmly,
"Xiao Lie, Yulong is right about one thing. I really don't have any feelings for you. When I was with you, I thought I could work hard to like you, but after going through so much, I have figured it out. The person I love is Ji Yuxian, he has always been him. I am going to find him, you should be your emperor, we are still friends!"
Xiao Lie's eyes were painful, "Ah Jiu, what if there is no Xia Yulong? You promised me that you would marry me and be my princess. Is everything a lie?"
Without Xia Yulong,
Su Jiu shook her head, she didn't know if she would really marry Xiao Lie, but thinking about it now, the feeling she had with Xiao Lie was completely different from Ji Yuxian's.
When she is with Ji Yuxian, she will have a heartbeat and a feeling of joy, she thinks, that is love!
Providence so, let them all go back to their places.
Su Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, then turned and walked outside the palace.
She couldn't wait to see him!
"Ajiu!"
A man's deep and sad voice came from behind, which was heart-shattering.
But Su Jiu didn't turn around, she walked faster and faster, passed through the palace walls, and walked out impatiently.
"Where are you going, son?" Er Mao asked.
Su Jiu thought for a while and said, "Go back to Su's house first!"
"Yes!" Er Mao drove away.
Back home, Su Jiu quickly walked into the lady's room, took a step forward, threw herself into her arms, and said in a low voice, "Mother, Xia Yulong is dead!"
The eldest lady hugged her and nodded slowly, "The day is finally here!"
"Yes! Xiao Lie got what he wanted, and I have already avenged him!" Su Jiu raised her head and smiled, "Mother, I'm going to move to Ji Mansion."
"Well, go, you are Yu Xian's wife, it's time to go back!" The eldest lady had tears in her eyes, stroking her temples and black hair reluctantly.
"I will come back to visit my mother often! If you miss me, you can go to Ji's mansion to see me anytime!"
"Okay!" The eldest lady smiled lightly and nodded.
"Then I'll go and pack my things." Su Jiu said, hugged the eldest lady, and rubbed her arms coquettishly.
After packing up her personal belongings, Su Jiu took the carriage to Ji's Mansion.
Before Ji Yuxian came back, Su Jiu arranged all the books she was reading in the study, planning to wait here for him.
With Ji Yuxian not around, J Ze went to another door, the entire Ji Mansion was almost devoid of masters, and at night, Nuo Da's mansion was quiet.
At night, Su Jiu read in the study for a while, then went back to her room to sleep.
Lying on the bed after bathing, although the man is not there, his breath is everywhere.
The fragrance of fresh water and lotus permeated the air, Su Jiu closed her eyes with peace of mind.
Early the next morning, after Su Jiu had breakfast, she went to study in the study, just like when she was the young lady in the mansion.
The government's decree on the withdrawal of the feudal domain has been announced, the king of Yu was imprisoned for rebellion, the crown princess was killed by the king of Yu, and the body was sent back to the Yunnan palace.
Hearing that Xia Cang saw Yulong's body, he was so sad that he passed out at that time.
Su Jiu didn't care about those anymore, she just waited for her husband to come back.
She was alone in the study room, and the room was exceptionally quiet. Old Yu brought tea in, and then left softly.
Su Jiushu read a little absent-mindedly, got up and sat on Ji Yuxian's chair, and read the handwriting he usually wrote.
The more I read it, the more I like it. Her handwriting has matured, but compared with Ji Yuxian, it is still far behind.
There were several scrolls of ancient paintings in the painting jar next to it, one of which was sealed very carefully, Su Jiu knew that it must be the painting that Ji Yuxian drew for her.
He got up and went over, just as he was about to take it out, he saw something dropped behind the painting jar.
Su Jiu leaned forward and took a look, it seemed to be a piece of silk brocade silk handkerchief, which Ji Yuxian usually used.
The painting jar is very close to the low couch, he must have accidentally left it there.
Su Jiu picked it up casually, and Fang wanted to put it on the table when the hand holding the handkerchief suddenly trembled.
The pure white silk brocade was stained with blood, which had turned dark red after a long time, but Su Jiu could tell at a glance that it was indeed blood.
This is Ji Yuxian's handkerchief, the blood on it,
Su Jiu's face turned white in an instant, a sense of panic rose in her heart, and she walked out quickly, clutching her handkerchief.
She looked anxious and ran all the way, the servants thought that something happened, they all stopped there and became nervous.
Su Jiu went straight into Old Man Gu's yard and saw that he was loosening the soil for the herbs in the yard. She walked over with a few steps, her voice trembling slightly,
"Has the poison on Ji Yuxian's body flared up? Where did he go?"
Gu Lao squatted on the ground, holding a small hoe in his hand, raised his head slightly and looked sideways, saw the silk handkerchief in Su Jiu's hand, and slowly stood up.
"What happened to him?" Su Jiu grabbed Gu Lao's arm.
"It hurts!" Mr. Gu patted her hand off, brushed the dust off his body, sat back on the recliner, and squinted at her, "He doesn't want you to know, so you just wait, there are only a few people on the left and right." I'm going back to Beijing in two days!"
"Half-moon bite really happened?" Su Jiu's chest sank like cold lead, "He didn't go out this time because of business matters, right?"
"Yes, Jin Feng found clues about the antidote for Ban Yueba near Chongxi Mountain, and Ji Yuxian went there in person!" Gu Lao stopped hiding and told the truth.
Su Jiu's long eyelashes trembled, and she turned around and went out.
"Girl, where are you going?" Gu Lao got up awkwardly.
Su Jiu left the Ji Mansion without looking back, mounted his horse and ran out of the city.
She is going to find him!
She was in a panic, as if if she didn't look for him, she would never see him again!
Su Jiu swallowed the constriction in her throat, and galloped on the horse.
At this moment, Ji Yuxian was standing outside a bamboo house on the hillside of Chongxi Mountain, looking around.
The surrounding bamboo forests are towering, quiet and elegant, and a clear stream passes by the bamboo houses. Herbal medicines are planted in front of and behind the houses, and the medicinal fragrance is light and refreshing.
In the bamboo house, the pharmacy is on the left, and the tea room is on the right.
The tea sets in the tea room are neatly arranged, the curtains are covered with light gauze, the pure white futon is spotlessly clean, and there is a porcelain vase on the table made of bamboo, which contains dried peach blossoms.
There is a faint scent of medicine in the air, and the smell of non-eating fireworks is everywhere, which is not like the place where the man lives.
There was no one in the three bamboo huts.
Jin Feng walked in and said respectfully, "My lord, my subordinates have already inquired. The owner of the house has left Chongxi a few days ago."
"Where did you go?" Ji Yuxian asked quietly.
"Still investigating, but according to the villagers, the owner of the house often goes out for wanderings, but he will come back here after a while. Counting the days, he should be back in these two days!" Jin Feng asked after finishing speaking, " Shall we continue to wait here?"
The owner's whereabouts are uncertain. If he returns, he may leave soon. It is safest to wait here.
"Then wait for two days!"
Just as Ji Yuxian finished speaking, suddenly a guard hurried up the mountain and whispered something in Jinfeng's ear.
Jin Feng frowned, but he didn't dare to hide it, so he hurriedly told about the situation in Shengjing City.
Seeing Ji Yuxian's face darken, Jin Feng hurriedly said, "The news may not be accurate, how can someone play with Young Madam's temperament? Even if the emperor wants to stay, it is impossible not to keep it!"
The gloomy color in Ji Yuxian's phoenix eyes became darker and darker, she only thought for a moment, then strode out,
"Leave someone here to watch, I will return to Beijing immediately!"
"My lord, this subordinate feels that this matter is a bit strange, and my subordinate should inquire about the exact information immediately, and it won't be too late for you to return to Beijing!"
"No, go back now!" Ji Yuxian said coldly.
He knew that something was wrong, but he still couldn't feel relieved if he didn't see Su Jiu.
The defeat of the Yunnan Prince's Mansion was due to the conspiracy of Su Jiu and Xiao Lie. Su Jiu had already stopped complaining about Xiao Lie's deception.
It is no longer possible for Yulong to be a queen. If Xiao Lie really does something to Su Jiu, no one can predict.
So, he must go back!
If she voluntarily stays in the palace, he can give in, but if she doesn't want to, no one will touch her even if she uses up the entire Ji mansion!
Seeing Ji Yuxian's resolute attitude, Jin Feng had no choice but to leave the others behind, and after careful instructions, he and Ji Yuxian hurried back to Beijing.
Su Jiu rode for a day and a night, crossed Yuhu Mountain, and stopped in front of Jinghua River. She saw that a narrow path turned into a vast river, submerging the trees on both banks, and the water was rushing downstream. .
It was foggy in the morning, and Su Jiu hadn't slept all night, her hair was already dyed white by frost, and her delicate face was as if it had been covered with snow.
She walked along the river bank and found that the bridge had been submerged and could not be found at all.
While in a hurry, she saw a wooden boat parked behind a willow tree, which seemed to be used for ferrying people, so Su Jiu walked over quickly.
There was a temporary thatched hut behind the boat, and the people in the thatched hut were still soundly asleep before dawn.
"Brother?" Su Jiu called out.
The people in the shack woke up startled by the sound, came out rubbing their eyes, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"I have something urgent to cross the river, can you take the boat now, brother?" Su Jiu asked anxiously.
"The river is not crossing today, you didn't see the water is so fast, there must be another mountain torrent, let's go back!" The boatman waved his hand, and went back to sleep in the thatched shed.
"Brother!" Su Jiu shouted anxiously, "I have something urgent, I have to cross the river today, I can give you ten times the money!"
"I won't go even if I give you money. The mountain torrents will kill people!" The boatman said with a cold face.
