Chapter 209 Death Warning

As soon as Xie Lingqin's hand touched the ancient tree, his whole body was filled with a strange feeling.

Before touching this tree, it was a strange sense of heartache, sadness and killing, but at this moment, when she touched this tree, it seemed to spread from the bottom of her heart to all limbs, and a light coolness was wandering. .

It made her feel as cold as bone marrow.

This feeling is very strange and shocking. It makes people want to take their hands away quickly, but they want to explore more.

This ancient tree must have some kind of connection with her.

After all, last time, she asked Zihe to touch her, but she didn't feel anything at all.

"This tree is said to be hundreds of years old. In fact, it has survived for thousands of years, and dynasties have changed. It has witnessed generation after generation of emperors, the killing of one dynasty after another, and the fall of stones one side after another. "

Following the sound, Xu Yiran walked slowly from under a row of lush trees on the other side.

Dressed in a white robe, the breeze is handsome.

There was a touch of melancholy in her slender eyes, as if she was feeling sad for someone.

"Oh, yes, taught."

Xie Lingqin withdrew her hand.

In just a split second, I felt that my body was much lighter.

It was strange in my heart, but Xie Lingqin didn't show any abnormality on his face, and smiled at Xu Yiran, "Then, please trouble Teacher Xu to take care of my younger brother, and leave."

"You're starting to hide from me, isn't that a good sign?"

Xu Yiran was straightforward.

Xie Lingqin was slightly stunned, then raised his lips and smiled, "I just don't want the prince to have any misunderstanding."

"You're so useless."

Xu Yiran smiled, "If he is so easy to misunderstand, why do you like him any more?"

"It's a trust between two people."

"You look very worried about Xie Danling, he is the crown prince, so it's possible that he can't protect him."

Xie Lingqin smiled when facing Xu Yiran's diverted remarks, turned around and got into the carriage.

Xu Yiran watched the carriage go away, stayed there for a long time, then turned and walked towards Huangshan Academy.

"Miss, I feel that, after all, today's incident is a sudden situation, and General Xie will not know so quickly that the son was not born by him. Do you think too seriously?"

"Although General Xie doesn't know that Xie Dan is not his own, but besides us, there is another person who is on the opposite side of us who knows."

Zihe was puzzled, and for a moment, he was taken aback, and said softly, "Miss means, Your Majesty."

Xie Lingqin did not object.

"But, no matter how you say it, the young master can be regarded as the emperor's nephew. This matter is also related to the royal family. If you say it, you will lose General Xie's heart. The emperor will not be so confused."

Zihe was shocked to realize that he had made a slip of the tongue. After all, it was the emperor. However, Xie Lingqin looked at her without any disturbance, and instead continued, "The emperor will not say anything, but if something happens and the emperor overreacts, then General Xie, Will you find any clues and become suspicious?"

"misfortune?"

"You go there in a while and ask someone to spread the news that we accidentally bumped into General Xie's darkroom mechanism in General Xie's study, which made General Xie angry and wanted to kill us."

"Miss." Zihe was extremely surprised.

"Yes, I'm serious, and I must focus on the fact that the mechanism was touched and the secret door was opened."

Zihe is so thoughtful and intelligent, he can see through it at a little bit, and he understands it immediately.

When it was dark, Xie Lingqin had just returned to the General's Mansion when news spread outside.

Of course, Xie Lingqin would not be afraid that General Xie would suspect her, because who would say such things that could be suspected on her.

Therefore, General Xie would only think that the general's servants did not keep their mouths shut and leaked the news.

However, the law does not blame the crowd, and he couldn't find out who it was, not to mention, the people who were present the most were his people.

As Xie Lingqin expected.

When the crescent moon was hanging that day, there was movement in General Xie's yard. It is said that a person entered General Xie's study quietly.

Both Zihe and Tinghai can only be seen from a distance in the dark, for fear of being discovered.

However, looking at his body shape, he can be sure that he is the emperor.

So, as expected, I was very concerned about the things in this secret passage, and came to check as soon as I heard the news.

Is this a guilty conscience, or is it that there is something that has not been obtained that made the emperor and the holy lady so interested in the things of her mother and Yun Yishang? gaffe.

Is it the whereabouts of those [-] generals? Your majesty, he is determined to get it.

Xie Lingqin rubbed her brows lightly and walked to a corner of the room.

There, the casket was placed there, and inside, it was said, were her mother's bones.

Where are those [-] soldiers? She searched her memory, and Zongzheng Yun didn't tell her before his death, and she didn't have any memory of the woman named Yun Yishang in her mind.

Before her temporary death, the old lady said that General Xie was not her father, and Yu Wenyao, including Prince Yong, did not say that she was Prince Yong's daughter.

And obviously, her mother and Prince Yong are a couple. Her mother had no choice but to force her to marry General Xie at that time, and she secretly had Xie Danling with Prince Yong. Her mother is so loyal to Prince Yong, she definitely would not with another man...

"Mother, tell me, whose daughter am I?"

Xie Lingqin murmured softly, inexplicably melancholy, "The man in black said, let me take your bones to the imperial mausoleum, I always think he meant more than just wanting me to put your bones with Prince Yong. It’s as simple as that, it’s supposed to be something else.”

The next moment, Xie Lingqin stood up suddenly and looked out the window.

"Miss, what's wrong?"

Seeing Xie Lingqin's gloomy appearance, Zihe and Tridacna inquired with concern.

Xie Lingqin shook her head, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about what happened more than ten years ago, and who is my mother..."

Zihe and Tridacna fell silent suddenly.

"Do you think I am the real Xie Lingyu..."

Before the words fell, Xie Lingqin shook his head and denied it. The things in his memory were not fake, so it was impossible.

In fact, after all these things, at this moment, Xie Lingqin was suddenly a little scared.

If her mother is not Zongzheng Shao, but that mysterious Yun Yishang.

And his father is not General Xie, but...

The emperor!
This idea is too scary, but it is not unfounded.

Xie Lingqin patted her head, this idea was too scary and impossible.

She was actually delivered by Mrs. Wen in the General's Mansion, which is unreasonable both emotionally and rationally.

Xie Lingqin suddenly turned around, "By the way, let's go to Ning Xiucai's house for dinner, Zihe, Tridacna, you two can come with me."

"Then, shall we go out quietly, or..."

"No, I'm going in an open and honest manner. Isn't Master Liu also going?"

While Xie Lingqin was speaking, she had already walked out the door.

Xie Yushu walked over, "Miss..."

Seeing Xie Yushu's gloomy face, hesitant to speak, Xie Lingqin suddenly got up, "Yes, you said a few days ago that your family promised you a kiss, and that girl is going to Beijing soon. This expression right now, but..."

"Miss is wise."

Xie Yushu lowered his head instantly, "I don't know how to deal with this matter, so I came here to ask you for advice."

"Please teach me?"

Xie Lingqin was inexplicably funny, "It's not normal for a male college to be married, and it's for your own good that the third uncle should be married."

"But, I just heard..."

Xie Yushu's face was almost wrinkled into a bitter gourd, "That woman is barbaric, but fierce, she came from the village, she has a fat head and big ears, I..."

"Push."

Xie Lingqin couldn't help laughing, "It's a good match, not bad."

Leave a word and leave.

Only Xie Yushu was left standing in the cold wind, so lonely, so melancholy, so sad.

However, after a while, Tridacna came back and looked at Xie Yushu, "Miss said, I will check it for you, don't worry."

"real."

"Bidozi is really real."

Tridacna obviously couldn't stop laughing when he said this, and seeing no one around, he really laughed out loud, "Well, when someone really arrives, you must let me see it."

"Clam you..."

"Okay, Miss is waiting for me."

Xie Lingqin's carriage wobbled for a short while before meeting Liu Yunzhou who was parked halfway.

His carriage was parked there.

Xie Lingqin was puzzled, "Liu Yunzhou, what are you doing in the middle of the road?"

"The carriage is broken and the wheels are stuck."

Liu Yunzhou spread his hands helplessly. Although his demeanor was excellent, he could see that he was a little anxious, "I was fine just now."

Xie Lingqin just got out of the carriage and walked over slowly, "I said, don't you know that Miss Lan Xiang is here today, so you were in a hurry, so you just invited a broken carriage out without even looking at it."

"You, you can't say that."

Liu Yunzhou's ears turned red, and then he looked around again, and said in a low voice, "There are a lot of people here, so you must not talk nonsense and tarnish other people's reputation."

Xie Lingqin suddenly became interested, and smiled, "Return someone else's reputation, who is this other person, it's Lan Xiang, could it be Ning Xiucai..."

"Xie Lingqin!"

Liu Yunzhou was so nervous by Xie Lingqin's few words, his handsome and restrained face became even more reddened.

"My lord, the wheels of this wheel are obviously in good condition. I checked for a long time and didn't see anything."

At this time, Liu Yunzhou's coachman came forward with a frustrated and helpless expression on his face.

Xie Lingqin looked at the coachman, and glanced under the wheel of the carriage. With this glance, his gaze suddenly became certain.

She can observe things in a subtle way. Many times, she can see places that cannot be seen with the naked eye.

She saw that under the wheel, a tree was deeply stoned.

It seems to stop with internal force.

"How long has your carriage been here?"

Xie Lingqin asked suddenly, with a smile on his tone, which was obviously dignified.

Liu Yunzhou said immediately, "It's been less than half an hour."

"Are you sure that the carriage was in good condition when you left the mansion."

Xie Lingqin looked at the driver again.

The coachman was shocked by Xie Lingqin's sudden serious expression, and immediately nodded, "Go back to Miss Xie, yes."

When Xie Lingqin heard this, his whole face turned pale, he abandoned the carriage and went straight to Ning Xiucai's residence.

Seeing this, Zihe and Tridacna asked the coachman to watch the carriage, and they also followed closely.

Liu Yunzhou didn't feel well either, and felt apprehensive for a moment. He lifted his robe and ran over, and the guards behind him followed immediately.

The wind whistled in my ears.

Xie Lingqin asked Zihe to do light work, and took her to the outside of Ning Xiucai's courtyard.

It was very quiet.

Xie Lingqin's hand, which was eager to push the door, suddenly froze in the air, too nervous to push.

Because, a strong smell of blood had already been blown by the night wind and dispersed.

"Miss." Zihe's voice became tense and depressed.

"Squeak-"

Xie Lingqin finally pushed the door open.

A bloody mess came into view.

The corpses were lying in disorder, the threshold, the main room, the side courtyard, and the main courtyard all had their eyes wide open.

Dead eyes.

Xie Lingqin's footsteps softened, if it wasn't for Zihe's quick support, he might have been carried to the ground.

But children!
No life.

And Ning Xiucai was lying on the ground at this time, and his back had obviously been stabbed with countless swords, and his nails were cut off. Beside him, lay the youngest girl who was only five years old.

It can be imagined that Ning Xiu hugged her leg tightly in order to protect the little girl.

Xie Lingqin was full of evil spirits, and his pupils seemed to be dyed red by the blood.

"Ling...little...sister..."

Xie Lingqin looked around for a week, and suddenly heard a weak voice. She looked around and saw a woman in the corner of the yard, her face was covered with blood, her arms were gone, but she was still alive.

"Lan Xiang."

Xie Lingqin rushed over and gently hugged her head, "What happened."

She didn't know it herself, but her voice, which had always been calm, was stained with mournful crying.

"me……"

As soon as Lan Xiang opened her mouth, a lot of blood poured out of her mouth, flowing on the corner of Xie Lingqin's clothes and hands, it was so cold and bloody that it was biting to the bone.

Xie Lingqin looked at Zihe.

Zihe immediately raised his hand and tapped Lan Xiang a few times.

Hearing a heavy cough, Lan Xiang's complexion seemed to improve a lot.

However, everyone knows that this is the acupuncture technique of returning to the light.

"Wait a little longer, Liu Yunzhou will be here soon, soon..."

With a calm voice, Xie Lingqin called out to the darkness almost roaringly, "Tinghai, bring Liu Yunzhou here at the fastest speed."

"Yes." The voice of Ting Hai's answer gradually faded away, it can be seen that he immediately walked away as soon as he received it.

Xie Lingqin took out a silk handkerchief from her bosom, pulled out a cloth towel from her sleeve, and carefully tried to pick up Lan Xiang's broken arm, although, she knew, it was so pale and futile.

"Everyone said..."

Lan Xiang suddenly grabbed Xie Faqin tightly with the other hand, and looked at the sky weakly, "I, I can't wait, Miss Lingqin, don't... tie it up anymore, ahem...you tell him, say, It is said that a business woman does not know the hatred of subjugation, is heartless and ruthless, and will not have true love in her heart, but..." Lan Xiang grabbed Xie Lingqin's hand vigorously, with blood and tears streaming from the corners of her eyes, desperate and affectionate, "You, you Tell him, I... from the first time I saw him, I was happy. It was him who made me make up my mind to be good. It was him who made me not afraid of gossip, slander, or cold-eyed ridicule. Just thinking, every day, can ... Yes, looking at ... him, I want to ... be with him, together."

Drop the last word.

Lan Xiang's eyes were tightly closed, and the hand holding Xie Lingqin was loosened bit by bit, and finally, powerlessly fell, it fell on the red blood, like a boulder hitting a person's heart.

"Lan Xiang—"

A strong force suddenly pushed Xie Lingqin away, and hugged Lan Xiang tightly into his arms.

Liu Yunzhou was as anxious as a gust of wind, and suddenly became quiet again.

He hugged Lan Xiang tightly.

"She said she loved you."

Xie Lingqin left the beginning, she said a few words with extra effort.

Because this is Lan Xiang's strength.

Liu Yunzhou didn't answer, but held Lan Xiang carefully, at that moment, the moonlight was beautiful, and she saw tears in Liu Yunzhou's eyes.

"Miss, no one is alive, but it's gone, Ning Yi..."

Zihe searched around and came forward to report.

Xie Lingqin tightened her hands and nodded, "The method was clean and neat. Except for Lan Xiang and Ning Xiucai, they were all killed with a single sword. It can be seen that the other party wanted to ask something from them, but they didn't ask."

"Will Ning be captured by the other party in a while?"

Xie Lingqin looked around, her face was cold, and she didn't speak.

Xie Lingqin didn't speak. For a while, Zihe and Tinghai didn't speak, and they didn't dare to make any moves.

Therefore, in the entire courtyard, except for the sound of the wind, which blew away the smell of blood, all that could be heard was Liu Yunzhou holding Lan Xiang's corpse in agony and remorseful depression and convulsions.

I don't know how long it took before Xie Lingqin's body moved, and the corner of her skirt swept across the blood-stained ground. She took a step forward, raised her hand, and silently landed on Liu Yunzhou's shoulder, "Are you ready?"

She asked, very light, very heavy.

But these three words, at this time, are very cruel.

Liu Yunzhou's almost dazed eyes shone slightly, and suddenly, he turned his eyes sideways, and his eyes fell on Xie Lingqin little by little. The man's eyes were red and his face was dead, "I want to take Lan Xiang away, I don't want to Possibly letting someone else touch her body."

"it is good."

Xie Lingqin nodded and said nothing.

Zihe and Tinghai at the side suddenly understood why Miss Cai didn't move. It turned out that she was giving Lord Liu time to accept the fact of Ailanxiang's death and let him make the decision he wanted. Then, let's deal with the follow-up things.

Liu Yunzhou gently picked up Lan Xiang and led his men out of the yard.

When he was about to turn around, he stopped again and looked at Xie Lingqin, "You already know who killed them, right?"

"Perhaps, possibly, probably..." Xie Lingqin was sarcastic and bitter, "Nine out of ten."

"Then will you avenge these people?"

Xie Lingqin's eyes were as sharp as a blade, and he gnashed his teeth, "This enmity is irreconcilable."

Liu Yunzhou paused, looked through Xie Lingqin, and looked into the yard, Ning Xiucai's unrepentant look, and then looked at Xie Lingqin, "Xie Lingqin, tell me, if you don't ask Lan Xiang to come, will you just call me?" It's not going to happen."

"It should be, my fault."

In the cold wind, the girl's voice was cold, like frost covered with icy air, and her starry eyes reflected the sky, with an unprecedented coldness, "Liu Yunzhou." She said, "Look, it seems that no one who gets close to me will do anything good. In the end, I not only killed Ning Xiucai, your Lan Xiang, but also these innocent children who don't even understand what some things are in this world, so if you want to live a long time, stay away from me in the future some."

Xie Lingqin's voice was calm, without any ups and downs.

In the dark night, the icy air was legal, Liu Yunzhou stared at her with a pair of eyes, then, he held Lan Xiang tightly in his arms, and walked out.

The night was getting colder and colder, and Lingqin's clothes were fluttering, and the girl was cold, whether it was her heart or her body.

"Tradacna, you have modified the traces of Lanxiang, Zihe, go and report to Jing Zhaoyin about the massacre here for no reason."

Only then did Xie Lingqin give instructions to Zihe and Tridacna, and after she finished speaking, she walked to Ning Xiucai's side, raised her hand, and then stroked his open eyes.

People who are still alive during the day, talking to her...

"Ning Caichen, I will not let you die in vain."

Xie Lingqin's voice was very cold and heavy, as if he was swearing heavily.

"Miss, my subordinates found a painting in Ning Xiucai's room."

Ting Hai suddenly handed over a scroll.

Xie Lingqin just looked at it, and suddenly a layer of water vapor accumulated in his eye sockets.

She didn't take the painting, but the painting was pulled by a pair of slender hands like jade.

Xie Lingqin looked at the man in front of him, the water in his eyes deepened, and his tone was a bit complicated, "Yu Wenyao, you just came out of the palace."

Yu Wenyao glanced at his phoenix eyes, his complexion was dark and his eyes were quite heavy, he nodded, "Well, I just left the palace."

"It's okay."

Xie Lingqin asked lightly.

Yu Wenyao lowered his eyes and didn't answer, but behind him, Ting Feng, who also looked dark and complicated, had already given Xie Lingqin the answer.

It shows that the prince was summoned into the palace by the emperor before, and leaving the palace at this time must be full of thrills.

"Fortunately, he didn't kill you."

Xie Lingqin took the painting from Yu Wenyao and unfolded it bit by bit.

"Ning Xiucai also told me that he wanted to discuss something with me."

Xie Lingqin looked at the painting, his eyes narrowed bit by bit.

There are several private schools painted on it.

Ning Xiucai wants to open a private school.

He knew that what happened back then was done by the emperor to deprive Nie Zui'er of his innocence, so he wanted to use his strengths to teach thousands of students, step by step into the imperial court, and seek a prosperous world with foresight.

only……

"I killed them."

Xie Lingqin looked at Yu Wenyao, the water vapor in his eyes finally condensed into real objects, staining his eye sockets red, that was regret, that was resentment, that was extreme frustration, "I killed them, the emperor clearly went to the general army The government, however, kept silent and warned me about the death of Ning Xiucai and these children."

Xie Lingqin gritted her teeth, her eyes were stern, "Yu Wenyao, I have never wanted to kill someone so much before now, do you understand?"

Xie Lingqin's hatred at this moment could even be felt by the blowing wind.

Yu Wenyao felt a pain in his heart, and hugged Xie Lingqin into his arms, "Qin'er, trust me."

"I believe in you, I know, you are different from them, you are different."

Xie Lingqin tightly grasped Yu Wenyao's waist, bit by bit, his nails seemed to be able to dig into his flesh and blood through the shirt.

Yu Wenyao endured it, as if he didn't feel any pain.

As long as she doesn't feel so sad, anything is fine.

Xie Lingqin suddenly sneered, "But, Yu Wenyao, Ning Xiucai died today, these innocent children, what about tomorrow, the day after tomorrow..."

Yu Wenyao felt the sudden coldness coming from Xie Lingqin's body, his pupils shrank, and a panic spread in his heart, he hugged Xie Lingqin tightly, "Qin'er, what are you thinking, is it Do you want to push me away, you..."

"No, I want to be quiet."

Xie Lingqin pushed Yu Wenyao away.

 Hey, Ning Xiucai is really dead~
