The rebirth of the noble concubine Wushuang

Chapter 43 Unchangeable Nature

"I have seen the noble concubine."

On the main hall of Yanqing Palace, Xie Chu saluted, and Li Guifei gave up her seat with a smile.In recent days, because of Song Xieyu's matter, Concubine Li Gui and Xie Chu had exchanged letters several times, and got acquainted with him a little bit, knowing that he was sincere to his sister and brother-in-law's family, and had a natural and friendly attitude, so she smiled and said: "His Royal Highness Yong Are you here to visit Yu'er today?"

"Yes." Xie Chu explained with a calm expression, "Because of the trust of the emperor, I entrusted the matter to the minister to investigate. When I heard that Chang Le woke up, the minister came to ask about the details of that day."

Concubine Li Gui nodded and said: "It should be so, I will send someone to talk to Yu'er."

She winked, and some maids bowed and retreated to the side hall.

Concubine Li Gui turned her head, smiled and asked: "What's the clue about this matter?"

Xie Chu shook his head slowly, "I haven't found any clue yet."

Concubine Li Gui sighed silently, since the other party dared to design in the palace, they must have thought carefully and wiped away any clues that might expose her, where is it so easy to find.

The emperor handed over the matter to Xie Chu, not necessarily knowing it would be like this, he clearly did it on purpose, relying on Xie Chu to save Yu'er.If he was asked to do this, the Song family would not be able to exert pressure. If it was someone else, only the brother-in-law would ask him every day, maybe he would have to rack his brains to find out the truth.

But when she got to Xie Chu's place, she could only say: "Just do your best, we will trust you."

Xie Chu cupped his hands in thanks, but didn't say much.

Concubine Li Gui knew that he had such a temperament and didn't mind, at this time the maid came to the palace to report, "The princess asked His Royal Highness King Yong to come and talk."

Xie Chu got up and bowed again, then followed the maid who led the way to Song Xieyu's room in the side hall.

Song Xieyu had just met Xie Yang, he was a little tired, and wanted to take a rest, but Xie Chu came again, this is a lifesaver, so he couldn't see him.

Seeing Xie Chu enter the room, she smiled slightly, "Third Brother, come in and sit down."

Her face was still pale, her hair was rolled up low, but after a few days, she became visibly thinner. Her cheeks, which were still slightly plump, were now as sharp as a knife, and her lower jaw was pointed. Xie Chu hesitated after looking at her, " If you are tired, it will be the same when I come back tomorrow."

Song Xieyu smiled and said, "What's the matter? I know you came here for that day's matter. I also want to find out as soon as possible, so don't delay."

Since she said so, Xie Chu stopped persuading him, and went into the room and found a place not too far away to sit down, but when he saw the chair not far from the side of the bed, his eyes couldn't help but pause for a while.

After sitting down, Song Xieyu thought that Xie Chu didn't talk much, so he didn't bother him to ask questions, and after thinking about it, he took the initiative to talk about the events of that day.Although I talked to Concubine Li Gui once before, but she was out of spirit at that time, I just talked about it roughly, but this time it was different, lying on the bed for the past few days, she thought about the events of New Year's Eve from beginning to end for countless times , Trying to recall every place, naturally speaking in more detail.

It's just that when she mentioned Yuxian, she couldn't help but paused for a moment, feeling sad.

In the past few days, my aunt never mentioned Yuxian, so Song Xieyu didn't dare to ask, she knew her aunt's temperament, if someone found her, she would have said it, so either she didn't find anyone, or... People are gone.

Either way, she was not happy to see it, so she could only bury this sadness in her heart.

After recovering, Song Xieyu secretly took a deep breath and continued.

"...That's the way it is. It's just that third brother, the maid in the empress dowager's palace is probably..." She sighed, and asked the maid standing by to take a painting on the table and hand it to Xie Chu, "This It's a portrait I drew, third brother can take this little portrait and look for it."

Xie Chu took the pair of drawing papers, surprise flashed in his eyes.

This small portrait is unexpectedly well drawn, with delicate brushstrokes, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is lifelike.

He didn't know that Song Xieyu had such good painting skills!

But after being surprised, he couldn't help sighing: "Indeed, as you said, this court lady threw herself into the lake and found out yesterday."

Because someone threw himself into the lake during Chinese New Year, it was really ominous, so he didn't say anything about it, and the eunuch who found the body was also taken away for investigation, and no one else knew about it yet.

Song Xieyu pursed her lower lip hard. Although she guessed it, she still felt bad when she heard the news.

This kind of method reminded her of the years spent in the palace in her previous life. At that time, the fighting in the harem was fierce, and some people died after a while, most of them died quietly, just like this palace lady.

Now that I think about how terrifying this harem is, it is like entering an abyss that can swallow everything, and if I am not careful, there will be no bones left!

Song Xieyu said quietly: "The woman who was stabbed by me in Qinghe Palace should not be there anymore, but?"

Xie Chu was startled, then nodded silently, and said clumsily: "Don't take this matter to heart, since she has malicious intentions, you are just protecting yourself, she deserves what she deserves."

Seeing that she was still in a trance, Xie Chu tried hard to think about what he was like when he killed someone for the first time, and then said a little bluntly: "I went out of the palace for the first time when I was 13 years old. I was very happy and looking forward to it. Not long after I went out, I ran into an assassin in a restaurant, who pretended to be a waiter of the restaurant, took out a dagger and stabbed me in the chest while the food was being served..."

Song Xieyu was stunned, raised his face to look at him, and couldn't help asking: "What happened next?"

"Fortunately, I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and my reaction was faster than ordinary people, so I didn't let him succeed. He wanted to escape, but I was young and vigorous at that time, so I immediately fought with him, and finally he was killed by me."

When Xie Chu said that he had killed someone, his tone was flat, as if he was saying that he had slaughtered a cow or sheep.

Song Xieyu's eyes twitched when she heard it, but she could tell that Xie Chu was comforting her, although the comfort...it was hard to describe...

Thinking about it like this was a little funny, Song Xieyu unknowingly slackened his brows and eyes, and said softly: "Thank you, third brother, for your comfort. In fact, I am not as fragile as third brother thinks. The other party wants to destroy me, and it has nothing to do with wanting to kill me." It’s different, so I act first, and I don’t feel guilty. Although I don’t want this kind of thing to happen, if it happens again, I will still do it.”

She looked at Xie Chu calmly.

This is what she said in her heart. It's okay if he can't accept it. After all, some natures are hard to change. She has never been a weak lady. When facing the enemy, she will not cry, but will try her best to fight back!

In her previous life and this life, she was such a person.

Rebirth can indeed restore some wrongdoings, but it cannot change a person's nature.

If Xie Chu alienated her because of this, she would have nothing to say.
