Daxuannv's sentence

Chapter 61
Cui Zhiye felt his head hurt, especially at the back of his neck. He couldn't help reaching out to touch the back, but found that his hands couldn't move at all. He opened his eyes with difficulty, only then did he see clearly that he was in a dark place. In the room, apart from a dim oil lamp, there was only straw all over the floor, and he was being tied to a stool.

"Where is this?" He asked blankly.

"Hey! Master Cui, you're awake!" A chuckle suddenly came from the darkness behind him.

"Who!!!" He shuddered, and hurriedly asked, then turned his head to look behind him as much as possible.

Out of the darkness came out a man dressed in black, with a fox-shaped mask covering his face. Judging from his figure and voice, he should be a woman!
"Who are you? Dare to detain an official ordered by the court. Do you know that this is a serious crime of beheading! Do you know who this official is? This official is the young minister of Taichang Temple, the son-in-law of the Ministry of Punishment. The people in the mansion must be looking for it. As for me, I advise you to let me go quickly, otherwise, if you are caught, you will be torn to pieces!"

"Ah! The little girl is so scared, Mr. Cui, you are full of official authority, but my servant is so scared by you!"

The woman's voice was full of mockery, and immediately, she took out a gleaming dagger from behind, and gestured in front of Cui Zhiye, "Since the consequences are so serious, I can only ask Mr. Cui to go on the road with the slaves." Well, on this road to the Yellow Springs, there is also someone to accompany you, you are so romantic, the slave family is not lonely anymore."

Cui Zhiye, a frail scholar, is in a dangerous situation at the moment, and the words he blurted out were just for self-strengthening, so that the other party would retreat and save his life, but how could he know that he actually angered this woman, he lost all confidence, and could only hurriedly say .

"Girl, girl, if you have something to say, if you have something to say, if you let me go, I'll give you ten thousand taels of gold, and I won't pursue you any more, how about it?"

The woman snorted coldly, "Oh! Master Cui, you are really a smart person who knows how to advance and retreat. No wonder you abandoned your old love and joined the Qi family to have a great future. Have you ever thought about Xiangyun, an actor from Qingyuan County!?"

Hearing this, how could Cui Zhiye still not understand the purpose of this woman kidnapping him?It turned out that he came to avenge Xiangyun.

"Girl! Girl, I don't want to abandon Xiangyun. I have no choice. Although I won Tanhua, on that day, Qi Shangshu asked me to have a secret talk and told me that her daughter Qi Songyue liked me and gave me two. The choice is either to marry her, join the family, and become an official in the capital, with a bright future, or I will be charged with insulting her daughter, and I will be deprived of my reputation as a flower hunter, sent back to my original place, and will never be an official!"

"I studied hard for ten years in order to be able to go back to high school and redeem myself for Xiangyun. I married her in a beautiful way, but if I was sent back to my hometown and charged with the most serious crimes, how would I go back and face the loss of my wealth?" Xiangyun, who was delivered to me, is still on the attic, waiting for me eagerly!"

"I have no choice, I have no choice, you know, I can only agree first, and then wait for an opportunity to find an opportunity to go back to Qingyuan County to redeem her, but the people in the Qi mansion, except Mrs. Li Jing, especially Qi Songyue, didn't allow me to take concubines, not even to listen to music, and asked me not to look at other women!"

"Seeing the time passing by bit by bit, I was burning with anxiety, but there was nothing I could do! On that day, the emperor's ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was successfully completed, and many officials went to Goulan to listen to music to celebrate, but Qi Songyue actually asked Qi Zhengyang to look at me carefully, I was afraid that I would get in trouble with other women, that day, I saw Xiangyun, she was on the stage, only a few dozen steps away, but I couldn't recognize her, I dare not recognize her!! "

The more Cui Zhiye spoke, the more excited he became, his face was full of tears, his face was full of remorse, and his voice was trembling. The emotion made the woman silent, and then she asked: "Then why didn't you find an opportunity to explain to her later? It can be seen that she abandoned everything in order to find you, and how much suffering did she suffer for a whole year when she came to Beijing alone?"

"How would I know, how would I know, Xiangyun! Xiangyun! I was going to find you, why did you get murdered!!!"

After finishing speaking, Cui Zhiye began to cry again, and he also recited the song "Linjiang Fairy".

In the place where the dawn wind, the moon and the clouds rest, jade hibiscus grow all over the place.

Fog and rain grow in the morning, lotus grows in the evening, the harp is not broken, and there is only continuous attention.

The woman in black had no intention of speaking, left the room, and walked into the stone room beside her, where Ye Ke, Zhu You, Yun Meng and Jian Jiu were waiting for her.

As soon as she entered the room, the woman took off her mask, wasn't it Yulan?
Her face was covered with tears, and the dagger in her hand fell to the ground, crying: "My lord, Xiangyun's life is so miserable!"

Several people quickly comforted them, and then they stopped.

It turned out that after planning, several people ambushed Qi Shangshu on the stone bridge, causing the horses to rush into Hanoi in fright, and then knocked Qi Shangshu unconscious and robbed him, and took advantage of the night and chaos to rob Cui Zhiye. It was in the dungeon of the pro-military commander, everything was safe, Qi Zhengyang was still in a coma, just to be on the safe side, they invited Yulan to pretend to be a gangster, and told Cui Zhiye's words.

"Is his words credible?" Yun Meng asked them with some doubts.

This room is specially used to listen to the interrogation. The walls are designed so that every movement in the room where Cui Zhiye is located, and any sound can be clearly heard.

Ye Ke paced back and forth, nodded and said: "It should be true, and of course the possibility of lying is not ruled out, because from the point of view of motive, he is the most direct, but, Qi Shangshu and Qi Songyue are really so domineering on weekdays? "

Yun Meng said without hesitation: "It's true. Once, when Qi Songyue saw Cui Zhiye took one more look at a maid in the house, she drowned her in the well!"

"What inhumanity!" Ye Ke scolded.

At this time, Zhu You said: "The next thing is to pry something out of Qi Zhengyang's mouth, but... the sky is almost dawn, there is no time!"

Taking advantage of the cover of the last bit of darkness, several people hurried back to the Criminal Division, because the master and uncle of the Shangshu Mansion disappeared at the same time, so there is a high probability that they will come to the Criminal Division to report the case. If they are not there, the Qingyang Princess There will be doubts.

Sure enough, as soon as they went back to have breakfast, a yamen servant hurriedly came to report.

"My lord! Mrs. Qi and Miss Qi from the Qi Mansion have come to report the crime!!"
