into the bosom

Chapter 8

"Go and ask in a while. The city gate has no impression of this family's past. How many people are there in this house, and check the documents to see who owns this house. If something like this happens, you must know The family will come to arrange the funeral." Ming Fu explained in a low voice.

The officials of the Yamen only promised.

In the crowd, Xu Jiao quietly rounded his eyes.That hand bracelet...she knew it.Although she had never seen Xu Jiao in the past few days, she remembered that when she was reading a book, the hostess took out such a bracelet to remember, and told the host about the origin of the bracelet. The Lord opened his heart, and the relationship has become much closer.

It is said that this wrist bracelet was a birthday gift from King Pingnan to Xu Jiao on her 12th birthday.A lifelike little rabbit is engraved on the bracelet, because Xu Jiao's zodiac sign is a rabbit, and the eyes of the little rabbit are inlaid with red treasures, and the words "Wanyou my son Jiaojiao, safe and happy" are also engraved inside the bracelet.

According to the hostess, Xu Jiao cherished this bracelet very much, and since the day she received it, she has worn it every day and never left it.The implication is that it will be worn until death.

However, Xu Jiao was chaotic at first these few days, and then he was busy thinking about how to avoid the fate of being cannon fodder when he appeared on the stage. He completely forgot the existence of this wrist bracelet, and for some reason, the wrist bracelet that never left his body was never on his body these few days. , I don't know how it will be worn on someone else's hand.

What's more, that person... Xu Jiao frowned, she thought she already knew who was recognized as her.

I can't tell what kind of feeling I feel in my heart. She is obviously a paper person, but why does she feel that her heart is tightly covered by an invisible big hand for a moment, stuffy, faintly painful, and her eyes are flooded for a moment .

In the blurred place of vision, there were still strips of cloth left on the body of the scorched black corpse, one corner of which was light blue silk and satin, and a few scorching peach blossoms could be vaguely seen on it. The cloak she wore.

For some purpose, she untied it and put it on Xi Qiu's shoulders with her own hands.

The pain in her heart was severe, and the corners of her mouth twitched, as if she wanted to yell out loudly to vent.But before that shout was added, it was tightly covered by a hand stretched out from behind.

"Don't shout, have you seen those people in purple clothes who came here? Those are the purple-clothed guards of your court..." A somewhat familiar voice rang in my ears with a touch of coolness.

At this time, Xu Jiao also saw the men in purple who were approaching the Ming Palace and the government officials.

The Ziyiwei is an organization established at the beginning of the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty. It is in charge of the guards and is responsible for patrolling and arresting. In the Great Wei with strict hierarchy and uniforms, this group of people can wear purple, which shows their detached status.In the same way, the power is also great, and the methods are even more vicious, so that the whole territory of the Wei Dynasty, Tan Ziyiwei's face changed.

And since the beginning of this dynasty, the entire Ziyiwei has become more accustomed to wearing masks when going out on missions, which actually makes Ziyiwei more mysterious and frightening.

After all, who knows if there is a purple guard by your side?
When Xu Jiao read this book earlier, he had complained secretly in his heart. Although this dynasty is fictional, it looks more like the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but he created a fake Jinyiwei Ziyiwei, but the more you look at the back , but the more he knows the methods of these purple guards, he dare not underestimate them at all.

She doesn't have the halo of a protagonist!If you don't want cannon fodder, you can only admit cowardice.

Xu Jiao nodded slightly under He Lianshu's palm.

He Lianshu glanced at her suspiciously, but... this little lady is really afraid of death, she is not so stupid, right?

These purple-clothed guards actually came here?It can be seen that this fire, or in other words, the people who died in this fire are no small matter.

Looking at Xu Jiao's eyes, there were more doubts and inquiries, and the hand that was covering Xu Jiao finally let go.

Xu Jiao didn't want to court death, so naturally she didn't shout, but just took a deep look ahead, turned her feet suddenly, turned around, and walked away in the direction she came and went, but tears rolled down her eyes in an instant.

What paper man?Even if you know rationally that these people in this world are just created by others, what about your feeling?

Just as she tried every means to get rid of the fate of cannon fodder, those people are living existences to her at this time, the people who were still talking to her or smiling at her in the morning, suddenly became A charred corpse...

What's more... Once that thought came to mind, it couldn't be stopped.They died because of her, for her, and even... in her place.

Xu Jiao's steps gradually became quicker and turned into a trot. One or two drops of cold liquid fell on the back of her hands in the wind. I don't know if it was the rain or the tears rolling down from her eyes.

He Lianshu strode behind her unhurriedly, looking at her back, his eyes were also like the sky at that time, the black clouds were rolling, and the wind and rain were accumulating.

At the gate of the small courtyard that was burnt into ruins, the Ming Mansion of Baijiang County smiled and said to the group of purple-clothed guards, "Soldiers, if you want to take this corpse away, the lower officials dare not stop it, but this disaster After all, it happened under the jurisdiction of the lower officials, and the lower officials have to explain a thing or two..."

Before the words were finished, a Ziyiwei behind the mask swept over like a knife, and the words from the back of Mingfu could not be uttered anymore, his whole body froze, and his expression changed.

"Account? Zi Yiwei only needs to explain to His Majesty what he does! The Ming government only needs to explain to his subordinates to keep their mouths in check. Don't say a word that shouldn't be said, otherwise..." The words behind are not finished, but It made Ming Fu and the government officials around him all change their faces, and they all lowered their faces, only to promise, and dare not say a word.

The purple-clothed guard was satisfied. He glanced at the corpses behind the mask, his eyes darkened, and raised his hand with a wave. The subordinates behind him immediately understood and lifted the corpses down one by one.

After leaving Xiaoyuan'er, this group of purple guards seemed to have disappeared from Baijiang County.

Ming Fu breathed a sigh of relief, it would be good if these evil gods left!As long as he thinks of them appearing in Baijiang County, he will feel restless, but he doesn't know who is the person in that small courtyard, who actually attracted Zi Yiwei?Moreover, to be so secretive, to obliterate the traces of existence so cleanly?

Xu Jiao walked back to Sanliang Dishe.

He Lianshu trusted the horse to let the horse rein, and followed her not too far or too close, without making a sound, and never pulling her on the horse by force.

The sky started to rain, not too much, the rain like silk thread was weaved obliquely and densely, and when he returned to Sanliang Mansion, his whole body was wet.

Seeing that Xu Jiao had returned to his room like a wandering spirit, He Lianshu followed him back to the room and called Su Le to explain some things. Just as Su Le left, there was a knock on the door again. Xu Jiao was standing outside the door, her wet clothes had not been changed, her hair had not been wiped with a towel, it was half-damp on her cheeks and neck, against her snow-white face and her wet eyes, she looked even more pitiful and innocent , "Mr. Helian, do you still have wine?"
