Chapter 497
Wuxiufang, morning.

Shui Ruohan stood in the private room with the best view on the second floor, looking downstairs.

This is the quietest time of the day in Wuxiufang, the girls are all sleeping, only a few maidservants and servants are cleaning up the slightly messy hall after a night of carnival.

The Wuxiufang has changed in recent years.

I remember when I was a child, this was an elegant place, and the dancers here were all innocent women, unlike the brothel boys outside.

Whenever there is any performance in the palace, dancers from Wuxiufang are often invited into the palace.

This is a teaching workshop, a private singing and dancing workshop.

But now, things have changed here.

I don't know when, as long as the dignitaries can afford the price, they can carnival here until dawn.

The girls went out with guests in private, and the nurturing aunts in the workshop also turned a blind eye.

When he first discovered this situation, he even reported it to his mother, but his mother just gave an understatement "Oh", and he knew that those girls dared to do this, so it was her mother who turned a blind eye.

Walk from the private room to one of the rooms. This is his sister's room. At the end of the corridor, there is also a window on the side. When you open it, you can see the flower garden outside. It was specially reserved for her sister by his mother until her sister likes it. look at the flowers.

Pushing open the door, the room is full of piano, chess, calligraphy and paintings. His sister is a music idiot. She once visited Meng Baiyun many times in order to get a piece of Meng Baiyun's score, but in the end she returned disappointed and depressed. for a while.

The desk was cluttered, almost occupied by various musical scores.

Heh, she is always like this. Every once in a while, she will take out a few collected music scores, spread them all over the table, and let them dry in the shade.

These few photos seem to have been obtained by her a few years ago.

Fumbled for the paperweight that pressed these music scores, the warm pink jade was given to her by him, she was overjoyed for a long time when she received it, and kept thinking about how to polish that piece of jade and make it into jewelry objects, and in the end somehow , It turned out to be a paperweight, she said, this jade is square on all sides, just like a paperweight, and the master has asked a master to carve some complicated patterns on it.

He disdained that paperweight at the time, and said that she wasted money, hehe, now that I think about it, among the things she gave her, this was the one she used the most.

The bed was made very neatly, and she had maids to take care of her, but most of the time, she did it by herself, and even the room didn't like others coming in.

It was all because a few years ago, a servant girl recklessly knocked over her ink cartridge, and the ink inside spilled all over the table, ruining a few sheet music she had managed to get before she had time to copy a copy.

From then on, she seemed to have lingering fears, and she didn't like the servant girl entering her room very much, and she didn't like the servant girl touching her things.

However, she is very kind to people, and she always has a smile on her lips. In Wuxiufang, she is very popular, and everyone likes her very much.

This person, his sister.

After her parents passed away, she refused to take her in with her fiancé's family, just because the other party said that she could raise her, but she couldn't take her younger brother with her, so she resolutely rejected him, even though it was winter, even though they were so hungry that they were about to pass out In the past, even if she was so poor that she couldn't see where she would be tomorrow, even if she took him with her, it was very likely that she would die.

However, she didn't abandon him in order to survive, she took him to steal eggs, was beaten half to death, but she tightly protected him in her arms, because the egg in her hand was already broken, she covered him in her arms, Randomly stuffed egg liquid into his mouth, saying: "Brother, eat quickly, don't be afraid, eat quickly, sister will not hurt."

Because of this sentence, the master finally couldn't bear to give up. They survived, but on top of their hunger, they were scarred.

The winter of that year was really cold. When I fainted at the gate of Wuxiufang, I thought I would never wake up again.

In the end, they became the young lady and son of Wuxiufang.

He still remembers his mother's kindness in nurturing him.

My sister's perseverance is more than a mountain.

After all, he will give up and betray the other for the sake of one of them.

Glancing at the room, he said silently, "I'm sorry, sister."

Sorry, I know that if you know about me and you want to betray our mother, you would rather die.

I'm sorry, I have no choice, you saved my life back then, you are my life, I can't let you die.

Closing his eyes, his face was sad.

Open it again, it has become cold.

Closing the door and turning around to go out, the downstairs hall has been cleaned up, and the door will open to receive guests in the afternoon, now is the best time.

The master who opened the darkroom had already sneaked into Wuxiufang in disguise.

Seeing him going downstairs, he followed him quietly: "Is it all right?"

"kindness."

Turning a corner, the two walked to a secluded place behind.

  The dark room was hidden behind the bookcase in one of the rooms. When the door opened, the man left, leaving Shui Ruohan standing in front of the door alone, looking at the long passage below, with an expression of death.

  Looking outside the door, he heard someone's footsteps in the distance. He stuck to the door, and it was his mother's personal slave.

With a bang, a teacup was pushed down, and this movement made the footsteps rush.

He dodges and enters the dark room.

Following the man's previous instructions, he closed the door of the dark room, but deliberately threw his jade pendant outside the dark room.

Clues, leads to fucking clues.

The darkroom is not big, but it is very warmly furnished.

There was a small cradle bed, in which were the dragon-pattern jacket and shoes that Meng Baiyun and the others had found.

A small table, on which there are many well-made wooden trinkets and dolls of finely embroidered fabrics.

Several boxes were lined up in the corner, and under the boxes was a low cabinet with double doors.

Open the door below, there are all small shoes in different styles, without exception, the workmanship is very exquisite.

Open the door above, there are some miscellaneous things, everything, but it can be seen that they are all used by children.

The above boxes are full of clothes, quilts and quilts, without exception, they are golden and golden, and only the sons of dragons are qualified to use them.

Faintly, I heard the sound of the darkroom door being opened.

He could not mistake the familiar and hasty footsteps.

This is the time, the time for him to complete his understanding, the time for him to die.

He took out the fire twister, picked up one of the small clothes, and lit it.

At the moment when the sound of footsteps was only a few feet away, he was reaching out to throw the burning little uncle to the cradle.

But he was stopped by a panicked shout: "Stop."

"What are you doing?"

"Who let you in?"

Shui Ruohan carried that voice behind his back, with a bitter smile on the corner of his mouth.

I don't want to come in either, mother, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry.

Turning around, the bitterness on his face has subsided, showing a complicated and worried look: "Mom, I know everything."

Wu Xiusu was only wearing a shawl, and she was still wearing a nap jacket underneath. Her face was flushed, and her forehead was slightly sweaty. It can be seen how hurried she came after getting the news. It can also be seen that the secret of this place is for her. How important it is to say.

Naturally, Shui Ruohan's life was more important than Shui Ruohan's.

When Shui Ruohan said this, Wuxiu's eyes clearly flashed a trace of murderous intent, but quickly suppressed it, pretending to smile: "What, what do you know?"

There was coldness and murderous intent in that voice.

How could Shui Ruohan not feel it.

"I know whose things these are. Mother, do you still remember when mother was drunk and said that you once had a child?"

"The child is dead."

"No, he's not dead."

Wuxiu was taken aback for a moment, her expression flustered, but she quickly calmed down: "Do you know something?"

"Mother, it's the King of Qin, right? That's the King of Qin, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Mother, don't lie to me, these are the evidence."

Shui Ruohan pointed to a room full of toys.

"These are all used by King Qin when he was a child. Dragon pattern, dragon pattern, this is also a dragon pattern. Only princes are qualified to use these. Your child is a dragon son. You said your child died young, but these Some of the clothes were worn by children of seven or eight years old, so that child lived until the age of seven or eight. That child was not dead at all, he was alive and living in the palace. Because you missed him, you did everything possible Collect the clothes he has worn, the things he has used, the toys he has played with.”

"I used to never understand why you wanted to help Riyue Island, but now I understand that with your status and status, you will stand by King Qin's side without hesitation. It's not that you have plans for him. It's not that he promised you anything, you are such a smart person, you can see through the current situation at a glance, whoever wins and who loses is doomed from the beginning. But even so, you are still devoted to King Qin because she is your own son .”

"To shut up."

"Mom, am I right?"

The murderous intent in Wuxiu's eyes was even stronger, and there was a chilling aura bursting out from her whole body. She narrowed her eyes with a very dangerous expression: "What if you guessed right, so what if you didn't guess right?"

"Mother, this is Chang'an City. You can't keep these things. I know that I discovered your secret today and broke into your forbidden area. You are very angry, but even if you are angry, it is for your own good and to prevent the second person from finding out. I will destroy these things."

After speaking, he polished the fire twister again.

But before he threw it on the bed, he was hit by a palm and took a few steps back, and the fire twig in his hand was also blown out, and fell into the wardrobe impartially.

The clothes were ignited almost instantly, and the speed was beyond Shui Ruohan's expectation.

With a terrified expression on Wuxiu's face, she rushed to the pile of clothes to put out the fire.

Shui Ruohan is going to pull her, the fire is too strong, it spreads instantly, if he doesn't come out again, he will be swallowed by the flames

However, before her hand touched Wu Xiu, Wu Xiu was quickly pulled away by a black shadow, and while Wu Xiu was struggling, she forcibly dragged Wu Xiu out.

When Shui Ruohan was about to go out with him, the door of the dark room was locked from the outside.

Yes, locked.

That was the sound of a lock being locked. Even if there was a mechanism inside, the door could no longer be opened.
