Chapter 33 Cruel

Chapter 33 Cruel
Mingzhu immediately lay down on the bed, and he stretched out his hand to slowly take off her clothes.Immediately, three large thorny welts came into Feng Zhanxiu's eyes, compared with the skin on his back, it was already showing a ferocious pink color.

He frowned intuitively, touched the edge of the welt with his finger, and said two words, "Does it hurt?"

"Unlock my acupoints, I don't need you to take medicine." Mingzhu gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, even if it hurts, it's none of your business!

Feng Zhanxiu put his hand into the bottle, dipped in the transparent ointment, and applied the medicine for her, "After applying this medicine, there will be no scars."

"I don't want your fake kindness. I don't want it." Mingzhu repelled in disgust.It's just that this ointment doesn't have any smell, and it feels cool when it first touches the skin, and then it doesn't hurt or itch.

Feng Zhanxiu responded to her words, "Well, what you want, what you want."

In "I don't want" and "You want", the medicine is finished.

Feng Zhanxiu put on her clothes, but between his fingers he touched the buds on her chest with malicious intentions.Mingzhu seemed to have an electric current running through her body, she bit her lip and turned to him, but he said, "Now, this king will take you to find out the person who hurt you."

Yanyun Building

After the "poisoning" incident, Feng Zhanxiu never came here again.

In the boudoir, Gu Ruoer looked haggard and looked gloomy.Even though she is still dressed up beautifully at this moment, she has lost her former style.

This is like a bird in distress, whose wings are wet, no matter how plump the wings are, they will lose their vigor.

"Ma'am, the new clothes that I asked to make last time are all ready, and they are all placed in the main hall now." Rong Nuo ran into the boudoir and said with a smile.

Gu Ruo'er sighed, but didn't look happy.

"It's fine, what are you sighing for? It's really unlucky. Madam, hurry up and take a look at the clothes. The old man glanced at them. They are indeed beautifully made. They must be bright and charming on Madam's body." Nurse Rong stepped forward to help her from the reclining chair He got up, understood in his heart, so he muttered in relief, "Men, they are all on the same mind, Madam doesn't know yet."

"What's more, the prince is not an ordinary man. The prince is a general of the dynasty, and he is the pillar of the country. He is a dragon and a phoenix among people. As the saying goes, 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. Feng Shui turns, maybe the prince will come to visit soon You." Rong Nuo patted the back of her hand and said softly.

It's just that these days, her life is not as easy as before.The master was treated coldly, and so was she.Those servants in the palace who looked down on people like dogs also ignored her, and didn't say hello when they met.She was angry, but there was nothing she could do.

Originally, he was thinking of making a career in the sky, but he didn't expect to end up in vain.

Gu Ruo'er naturally understood this truth, her beautiful eyes burst into light for a moment, "Nurse, you are right. If you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood. Let's go, take me to see the clothes."

"If the prince doesn't come to visit me, then I will visit him." She raised the corners of her lips and smiled coquettishly.

"Hey! Ma'am, you're right to think so. I'll help you there." Nanny Rong also ignited her fighting spirit, as if she would not give up until the Yellow River.

The two walked out of the boudoir cuddled together, and just turned around the corridor when they saw Dongmei running anxiously.

Gu Ruo'er was a little curious, but Nanny Rong beside her asked, "What are you doing in such a panic!"

"Ma'am, Nanny, the king and lord are here." Dongmei panted and reported.

The prince is here?

Gu Ruo'er was immediately refreshed, and joy overflowed her face.She glanced at Dongmei and asked anxiously, "Didn't you say that the prince is here? Where is the prince?"

"My lord is waiting in the main hall, tell my wife to go right away." Dongmei said.

"Nurse Rong." Gu Ruo'er hadn't seen Feng Zhanxiu for many days, and when she heard him coming, she immediately panicked.She stretched out her hand to stroke her hair, and asked in a low voice, "Nurse, can I look like this? Do you want to go make up again?"

"Ma'am, don't lose your sense of control, you are very nice and beautiful. The prince finally came here, so we can't make him wait for a long time." Aunt Rong thought this was an opportunity to turn things around, and gave a warning after thinking about it.

After hearing this, Gu Ruo'er complied, "Mama is right, but you can't let the prince wait, let's go."

※※※

"My lord, you are here~" A cheerful female voice came from outside the hall.

After the words fell, a slim figure flashed at the entrance of the main hall.

Gu Ruo'er turned her gaze, and slowly looked into the hall.When her eyes touched the two people in the hall, she was taken aback immediately, as if someone had thrown a rock in her heart, and she was so heavy that she couldn't breathe.I saw Feng Zhanxiu sitting on the eight-legged chair with Mingzhu in his arms, his demeanor was calm and flamboyant, and he looked at her with deep eyes, cold and ruthless.

Gu Ruo'er didn't expect this to happen, and froze in place.

"..." Rong Momo was also surprised, and suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Ruo'er, the king came here today just to ask for an answer." Feng Zhanxiu patted the pearl in his arms from time to time, he said, looking down at the pearl, the male voice turned gentle, "Don't worry, the king will naturally answer." It's up to you."

Not only could Mingzhu be unable to move, but he also pressed the dumb point, and now she can't even speak.She was carried all the way by him, and she was also brought by him forcibly.She didn't know what he was going to do, but why his tenderness made her feel so terrible.

That kind of terrible, inexplicable panic.

Mingzhu could only stare at him, her eyes full of accusations.

"Don't look at me like this. I know you don't like this place. I'll take you back as soon as the matter is over." Feng Zhanxiu seemed to be coaxing a child, but he didn't take her stare seriously. thing.

Suddenly, his brows frowned, and his eyes swept to Gu Ruo'er who was in a daze.

The haze filled the bottom of his eyes, and he drew the corners of his lips, "Hurry up and come in, what are you doing standing outside."

His tone was so light and airy, but Gu Ruo'er only felt that a catastrophe was imminent.When Nanny Rong looked at him like this, her scalp became numb, and she hurriedly lowered her head so frightened that she didn't dare to look again.The two walked into the hall tremblingly, with difficulty, and they didn't even have the courage to raise their heads.

Did the prince know it?Then they...

At this time, Zhongli led several guards and pressed the two men into the main hall, "My lord, they have been brought here."

The two men immediately bowed to the ground, caught a glimpse of Feng Zhanxiu in front of the hall, and shouted again and again, "My lord, the villain is wrong, please forgive me, the villain will never dare again. Please be merciful..."

"Oh?" Feng Zhanxiu responded suspiciously, and asked in a deep voice, "What mistake did you make?"

Mingzhu was imprisoned in his arms, and she looked slowly, feeling extremely surprised for a moment.

Aren't these two guards who guarded the dungeon and whipped themselves?
The two men were originally guards in the palace, and they were two fierce members of Feng Zhanxiu's army before, and they were just transferred to guard the dungeon of the palace not long ago.Unexpectedly, he had just lived a peaceful life, and because of his reckless behavior, he offended the prince.The two immediately knocked their heads on the ground as a token of apology.

"..." The two men hesitated to speak, knowing that they were doomed.

Feng Zhanxiu caressed Mingzhu, then looked down at her again.In his eyes, Mingzhu's terrified little face was reflected.Then there was a moment of deepness, and it disappeared without a trace.He smiled and murmured firmly, "No matter who hurts you, this king will not let you go."

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, showing a sinister arc.

The uneasiness expanded even more, and Mingzhu was too anxious to be herself.

Let her talk, let her talk!Feng Zhanxiu, what are you going to do?what you up to?Feng Zhanxiu!Unlock my acupuncture points and let me speak!Mingzhu shouted silently, staring at him angrily.Maybe it was because she was too angry, her eyes were red, and her eye sockets were sour.

Feng Zhanxiu touched her small face, and touched her eyes with his fingers, as if caring for a cherished baby.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry anymore." He breathed out, and there was a certain luster hidden in his arrogant handsome face.

Mingzhu was annoyed and had tightness in her chest, but she couldn't speak and couldn't move.

"I really don't know how to repent, and I will die without guilt." Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and looked at the two kneeling in the middle of the main hall.

"My lord——" the two men shouted at the same time, begging again and again, "Your lord, the villain is wrong. The villain knows his mistake. The villain doesn't abide by the law and discipline, he doesn't abide by the rules, and executes the punishment in private. The villain knows his mistake. My lord, The two villain brothers have followed the prince for many years, and they have worked hard without merit, please forgive me, the prince, and show mercy outside the law."

Feng Zhanxiu squinted his eagle eyes, and shouted coldly, "It is precisely because you have followed this king for many years, but you still haven't obeyed the laws and regulations, and punished you in private! If you are spared, what is the prestige of this king?"

"My lord! The villain doesn't dare anymore!" The two men raised their heads and pleaded.

Feng Zhanxiu has a handsome and cold face, revealing a domineering and sharp side.Although they were not wearing battle armor, and they were not fighting each other, their aura was as powerful and ferocious as if they were dealing with an enemy army.What is shocking is that there is still a smile on the corner of his mouth, this kind of smile seems to reach the world, and it is terrifying.

He finally opened his mouth heavily, and asked again, "I don't want to ask a second time, who made the whip and who took the chili oil."

Startled by his aura, the two men could only answer honestly.

"The whip used by the villain..."

"Spicy oil is taken by villains..."

Feng Zhanxiu responded coldly, and ordered, "Drag on, cut off their hands, I don't want to see them again."

"My lord..." The two men trembled, but they thanked me, "Thank you, my lord, for my mercy... Thank you, my lord, for my mercy..."

The guards on one side immediately dragged the two men out of the main hall, leaving only the shouts of the two men in the air.

cut hands?They are also loyal to him, why is he so unkind?
Mingzhu looked at Feng Zhanxiu, but couldn't see his eyes.In her mind, the bloody and terrifying picture vaguely appeared, and her little face turned pale, feeling uncomfortable for a while.At this moment, she was held in his arms, and all she could feel was his cruelty.

"What's wrong? You look so bad? They deserve what they deserve, you don't need to blame yourself." Feng Zhanxiu looked at her and comforted her in a deep voice.

deserved...

Did you deserve it?Mingzhu smiled wryly in her heart, and glared at him fiercely again.

Gu Ruo'er and the others standing in the hall were already so frightened that they were speechless.Although Dongmei and Dongzhu didn't do anything bad, they were also frightened.But Gu Ruo'er and Nanny Rong felt guilty and became even more frightened.The two looked at each other with serious expressions.

"Now it's your turn." Feng Zhanxiu said quietly, and a male voice suddenly rang out in the main hall.

Immediately, the two servant girls, Dongmei and Dongzhu, bowed to the ground.

Gu Ruo'er stuck to the line of defense, pretending to be confused, and asked a little chillingly, "My lord, Ruo'er doesn't know what my lord said. My lord..."

"Don't you know." Feng Zhanxiu smiled casually, his eagle eyes swept across Gu Ruo'er sharply, and glanced at Nanny Rong, "What about you? Tell me, do you know?"

When Nanny Rong was called, she knelt down on the ground with a "plop".

Her plump body was trembling, and her voice was also trembling, "Prince, lord... I don't know..."

"You don't know either." Feng Zhanxiu turned his head again, this time looking at Dongmei and Dongzhu, "Tell me, do you know?"

Dongmei and Dongzhu also answered with trembling voices, "My lord...the servants don't know..."

"Very good! None of you know." Feng Zhanxiu tightened his arms around Mingzhu, staring and shouted, "But I must know who poisoned it and who is deliberately framing it! If you don't know , the king had no choice but to lock you all up and torture them severely."

"Come here, drag all these slaves out."

The guards responded immediately, and walked to Nanny Rong, Dongmei, and Dongzhu one after another.Immediately, the three of them were set up by the guards.Dongzhu was so frightened that she cried, looked at Mingzhu and shouted, "Mingzhu! Mingzhu, speak up! We didn't poison you, and we didn't frame you! Mingzhu! Tell the prince!"

"Mingzhu! Mingzhu!" Dongzhu's cry was shrill, his eyes blurred with tears.

When Mother Rong heard that she was going to be tortured severely, she yelled, "My lord! This servant did not poison me! Ma'am, you are the master of this old man!"

"..." Dongmei bit her lip, looking at her sister's crying face.Suddenly the scene from that day rang out, and she looked at Nanny Rong hesitantly, not knowing whether she should speak out about the situation at that time.

For a moment, the noise started wantonly.

Mingzhu looked helplessly at their panicked little faces, hating her own helplessness.

"Want to talk?" Feng Zhanxiu suddenly pinched her chin and gently lifted it up, asking softly.

Mingzhu couldn't move, and a gleam of light flickered in his eyes.Her eyes met Feng Zhanxiu's straight, and turned to pleading or pleading.The next second, she felt his hand pointing towards her waist.A burst of warm air surged through her body, and she blurted out, "My lord, let them go, they are innocent!"

"They didn't hurt me, they would never poison me! Let them go! Your lord!"

Feng Zhanxiu said softly, "This king promised to find out the person who harmed you for you. If it wasn't them, who would it be?"

"I-I don't know..."

"But Dongmei and Dongzhu will never poison me, absolutely not!" Mingzhu said firmly, but in fact she was even more confused.She had no idea who was framing her, but it was true that Gu Ruo'er was poisoned.

She couldn't tell what the truth was!
Hearing what she said, Feng Zhanxiu said again, "Since you are so sure that these two maids will not frame you, then the king will let them go. But now there is only this nanny left, so she is the only one left."

"Drag it out, and give it to death!" He narrowed his eyes slightly, without a trace of emotion.

"Ah?" Nanny Rong was dizzy and tongue-tied, "Your Highness... Your Highness, please spare me..."

"Drag it out!" Feng Zhanxiu said coldly, not allowing anyone to discuss.

The guards dragged Nanny Rong out of the hall abruptly, and Nanny Rong burst into tears, "My lord! Ma'am! My lord is merciful! Madam, save me! Madam, save me! It's not a slave, it's really not a slave, it's Madam..."

"Nurse Rong!" Seeing that the situation was wrong, Gu Ruo'er shouted coldly.

She was afraid that she would shake herself out, so she took a step forward hesitantly.Looking weakly at Feng Zhanxiu, he said in a trembling voice, "My lord! It's none of Rongmao's business! Rongmao has served me for more than ten years. She treats me very well and protects me in everything. How could she do that?" Poison me?"

"My lord, please check clearly! Don't be deceived by others!" Gu Ruo'er begged for mercy.

She suddenly pointed at Mingzhu again, the repressed jealousy in her heart burst out in an instant, and she yelled, "It's you! It must be you! Seeing that the prince dotes on me and loves me, you are not happy! It is clear that you poisoned me, and you want to turn it upside down." Right and wrong are black and white! The prince is confused by you, so he will listen to you!"

Ming Zhu was accused by Gu Ruo'er, but she didn't feel that angry.

For some reason, seeing Gu Ruo'er standing there alone, she felt pitiful and pitiful.Even if someone framed her, she didn't want to see such a scene, and she didn't want to see someone die because of her or hurt because of her.Besides, it's happened once before, and she doesn't want to have it again.

Mingzhu lowered her head, her eyes were gloomy, and she said resolutely, "My lord has already believed me, please don't pursue me any further."

"Mingzhu begs the lord." She murmured, her voice as soft as a mosquito's moan.

The hall suddenly fell silent, only faint weeping sounded from time to time.

Everyone was anxious, waiting for Feng Zhanxiu's final decision.

However, he remained silent for a long time, a faint blue flame clustered in the bottom of his eyes, resentful.Then he moved his lips and said in a deep voice, "No! There are ghosts in the palace, how can this king tolerate and indulge the little ghosts to succeed?"

Everyone's face changed suddenly, and they cried again, "My lord! My lord, please be kind!"

"Even if you kill a hundred by mistake, you can't let one go!" Feng Zhanxiu said decisively, his eyes swept across the people in front of him, and he sharply caught the twinkling eyes of two of them, "Who is behind the scenes, God! Know everything."

"This king will give you one more chance, this is the last time. The person who poisoned you should confess quickly, otherwise, this king will punish you all!"

Dong Zhu was choked up from crying, his eyes were red, "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-"

In a panic, Gu Ruo'er glanced at the two maidservants confusedly, turned around, and accused, "My lord! I see, it must be these two maidservants! It must be the two of them! They...they..." For no reason, she faltered in the middle of her sentence and didn't continue.

"I don't! My sister doesn't either!" Dongzhu shook his head sadly.

Dongmei hesitated until now, and she couldn't bear it anymore at the critical moment.With all her strength, she wanted to break free from the restraint of the guards, she shouted loudly, "My lord! This servant knows who poisoned me!"

boom--

Everyone fell silent again.

Feng Zhanxiu said in a deep voice, "Let her go!"

"Yes!" The guards let go immediately.

Dongmei's knees softened immediately, and she fell to the ground.She looked at Dong Zhu who was crying, then at Gu Ruo'er, and finally her eyes fell on Nanny Rong.She stretched out her hand and pointed at Nanny Rong, "It's her! The real poisoner is Nanny Rong!"

"You're talking nonsense! You bastard! You framed me!" Rong Rong was in a hurry.

"I'm not talking nonsense!" Dongmei interrupted her resolutely, saying every word clearly, "After Madam was poisoned and passed out, you didn't allow me and Dongzhu to take care of Madam! That day I forgot to take the soup bowl away, and then I went back to Madam The boudoir. I stood behind the screen and saw you pricked your hand with a needle and let the blood fall into the water."

"Why are you doing this?"

Nanny Rong's eyes widened in astonishment, and she was at a loss for words.She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't know what to say.Suddenly, she looked back at Gu Ruo'er, and then cried loudly, "My lord! All the servants have been recruited! The servants have recruited all the facts!"

"It's actually Madam..." At the critical moment, Nanny Rong turned against her, "Madam wants to stabilize her position, so she wants to eradicate Mingzhu. She ordered me to instruct Mingzhu to decoct the medicine, and then mixed it with blood. This medicine is a Prescribed by a quack doctor, who said before that doing so can poison the person who drinks it."

"If you want to detoxify, you only need to soak the blood of the bloodletter with clean water, and you can detoxify."

"My lord! All of this was arranged by my wife, and I only agreed to it out of desperation! My lord, please forgive me!"

"So that's the case?" Feng Zhanxiu murmured suspiciously.

Mingzhu was stunned, even though she had speculated that it was Gu Ruoer, it was only for a moment.Who would take his own life to harm others, who would have such deep scheming?Who would do such a crazy thing?
It's terrible, it's terrible...

Gu Ruo'er's face turned blue for a while, with a panicked expression.She looked at Feng Zhanxiu, but saw the coldness in his eyes deepened.At this moment, she was hot-headed, turned around and faced Nanny Rong, and bit back, "You old bastard! Talking nonsense! So you were the one who poisoned me, yet you treated me like this, and now you are here to frame me!"

"My lord... My lord killed her, my lord killed her!" Gu Ruo'er yelled hysterically, "How could I do such a thing? My lord! Your lord, you have to trust me! My lord!"

Seeing the two of them blaming each other, Mingzhu felt cold in her heart.

She looked up, but Feng Zhanxiu had a relaxed expression on his face, as if watching a play.

"Tell me, who caused you to be harmed by these two people. As long as you speak, this king will immediately cut that person into pieces!" Feng Zhanxiu smiled slightly, showing awe-inspiring evil spirit.

Mingzhu was dazed for a while, then moved her lips, "Feng Zhanxiu, you are so cruel."

"You say this king is cruel?" Feng Zhanxiu said calmly, staring at her.He looked so happy, as if he was talking about someone else, not himself.The curvature of the corner of his mouth became more and more condensed, he seemed to be smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes.

It seems that there is always a layer of hazy light covering the sight, making it impossible for people to see clearly.

Mingzhu didn't know what was wrong, she just felt dazed looking at him.

She looked at him and said quietly, "Yes! You are cruel!"

Your cruelty, ruthlessness, heartlessness, heartlessness...

"How cruel is this king?" He asked again, finally a trace of confusion appeared in his tone, "This king finds out the people who framed you for you. How can this king be cruel? Those who hurt you will be punished one by one by this king. I didn’t let it go. This king did this for you, but at this moment, you actually said that this king is cruel?”

Feng Zhanxiu narrowed his eyes, and tightened his arms around her waist.

The scorching heat passed through the clothes in the palm of her hand and penetrated into her skin, Mingzhu suddenly felt a chill.

Mingzhu laughed, laughing so self-deprecatingly, "My lord, you kept saying that it was for me, for me to find out those who poisoned me, for me to punish those who hurt me, for me, to control people's life and death with one word. Cut hands, Death, five horses to divide the body..." She said, her voice trembling, "But the prince..."

"It's not what I want, it's not what I want to see."

"You only think about yourself, and everything you do is for yourself, not for me. If the prince must pursue it to the end, then the prince can continue. Anyway, the prince has never changed his mind for anyone, Mingzhu knows that I don't have the patience for that."

"but……"

"Mingzhu still wants to tell the lord that you have to forgive others and forgive others. Good and evil will be rewarded in the end."

Her voice is very soft, but every word is extraordinarily powerful.

There was a bit of evil between Feng Zhan Xiu's eyebrows, and the whole person showed arrogance.The domineering and suffocating breath surrounded the Pearl, she felt depressed, but she still greeted him arrogantly, not letting herself escape.He looked at her for a long time and didn't speak for a long time, the sparks in his eyes were flickering.

The hall was even more silent, as if only the two of them existed for a moment.

"Haha——" Just when everyone was stunned, Feng Zhanxiu suddenly laughed out loud.His laughter was so reckless, with internal strength, it made people's ears hurt, and it created a huge air current.

Everyone screamed in pain and covered their ears unbearably.In an instant, the guards let go, the maids fell to the ground, and Gu Ruo'er knelt and curled up into a ball.

Everyone had hideous expressions on their faces, struggling to escape the sharp laughter.

Looking around, only Zhongli was standing there safe and sound.

Mingzhu also squinted her eyes in pain, why did this kind of laughter make her feel so sad.Through the eyelids, she stared closely at his eyes, which were still hazy.From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of everyone's suffering, and she begged, "My lord...Don't laugh, my lord..."

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Feng Zhanxiu raised his head and laughed, a soft female voice sounded in his ears, he stopped laughing abruptly.

In the next second, he reached out and stroked her palm-sized face.His eyes were rarely hazy, but it was a look she didn't understand.Mingzhu's ears were buzzing, and she could only see his lips moving slightly, but she couldn't hear what he said.

Mingzhu was a little anxious, "You...what did you say..."

Feng Zhanxiu leaned close to her ear and breathed out, "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, do you mean death?"

"This king is really looking forward to it. If good and evil come to an end, when will the retribution come..."

Mingzhu's eyes widened in an instant, and she was speechless for a moment, "..."

"What are you doing looking at me like that? Hehe." Feng Zhanxiu said hoarsely, bowed his head and kissed her cheek.

Then, he glanced coldly at the hall, and his gaze stayed on Nanny Rong's terrified old face, and he shouted, "For the sake of your care for your master earlier, this king will give you the whole body! Come on!" Now! Throw this old woman into a dungeon!"

"Ah—" Nanny Rong was defeated like a mountain, with a panicked expression.

"Yes!" The guards got up from the ground and immediately dragged Nanny Rong out of the hall.

"My lord! My lord, be merciful! This servant is really wronged! Ma'am! How can you treat this servant like this, Ma'am! This servant has served you for ten years, a full ten years! This servant has hard work without merit! This servant is wronged! This servant is really wronged! "Nurse Rong's sad and angry female voice hovered in the sky, and then she swore viciously.

"Gu Ruo'er, you are treating me like this! Gu Ruo'er, you have to die! Gu Ruo'er, you have to die..."

"Even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go! Gu Ruoer, I won't let you go! Gu Ruoer..."

Gu Ruo'er caught a glimpse of Nanny Rong's hateful eyes, and took two steps back in horror.

"Let's go, this king will take you away." Feng Zhanxiu said solemnly, and got up holding Mingzhu.

Gu Ruo'er watched him walk towards her slowly, until he approached her, and couldn't help but say, "My lord..."

"You can stay here with peace of mind. Naturally, this king will not treat you badly." Feng Zhanxiu looked at her indifferently, put down these words, and strode away with Mingzhu in his arms.

Gu Ruo'er's heart was empty, she knew that she had truly fallen out of favor and was thrown into limbo.

Not only that, but she also lost Nanny Rong. This is really losing my wife and losing my army!
Feng Zhanxiu's slender figure walked past her, Gu Ruo'er clenched her hands tightly, her nails dug into her flesh, oozing blood.When passing by, she suddenly raised her head and stared at Mingzhu without blinking.

There was too much hatred in the eyes for a moment.

Mingzhu was frightened by her eyes, her heart beat half a beat faster.

Such a look, so much resentment.

Gu Ruo'er laughed foolishly, helped herself up slowly, and shouted softly, "I will send you off to the prince."

In the season when the cold winter is about to pass and the early spring is approaching, the icy cold wind is blowing bitingly.Mingzhu closed her eyes, feeling extremely heavy in her heart.And his deep male voice asked with concern, "Is it cold?"

Cold.Mingzhu remained silent.

The body is cold, but the heart is colder than it.

That night, Feng Zhanxiu did not stay in Yin'an Hall.

But Mingzhu slept very restlessly, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep no matter what.Hearing the beating sound coming from a distance, Mingzhu quietly opened her eyes.It was gray and hazy in front of my eyes, and the candlelight was flickering and flickering.

Staring at the candlelight, she could only sigh, "It's the third watch again."

Thinking of everything that happened today, Mingzhu feels scared.

Feng Zhanxiu is too scary, such a man is completely terrifying.

If a person is not even afraid of death, what else is he afraid of?
After thinking about it, Mingzhu got up restlessly half-lying, and now she didn't even feel sleepy at all.Simply get out of bed, why not go outside for a walk to relax.Mingzhu put on embroidered shoes, took a velvet blue cape hanging on the screen, and quietly walked out of the room.In Yin'an Hall, the maids and servants have already rested.

At this time, the Yin'an Hall, and even the palace was quiet.

There is only a moon hanging in the night sky.

Mingzhu walked on the moonlight, walking alone in the quiet palace.She was not afraid of anything in her life, but she was afraid of the dark and ghosts.I don't know where the faith came from today, just move forward.The cold wind blows from time to time, making her body shiver, but it also makes her mind become clearer.

She can't stay here for long, she wants to go back to the capital.

Mingzhu was walking contemplatively when she suddenly felt someone following behind her.She slowed down vigilantly, and the people behind her also slowed down.She frowned, feeling a little scared.

Isn't it so unlucky?Can't there really be ghosts?

Mingzhu clenched the corner of the cloak, walked forward sullenly, and even quickened her pace.And the people behind seemed to be staring at her, and quickened their pace.Mingzhu couldn't help but glance sideways secretly, but still didn't dare to look back.She bit her lip and walked faster and faster. After taking a few steps, she turned into a trot.

She ran in a panic, towards the way to and from Yin'an Hall.

The moonlight made Mingzhu's thin figure longer, but the sound of heavy footsteps gradually approached,

A hand stretched out from the outstretched hand, and slowly reached Mingzhu's shoulder.

Mingzhu missed half a beat of her heartbeat, and felt someone put her shoulders on her shoulders.Just as she was about to open her mouth to scream, the man swung his other hand out from behind and covered her mouth directly.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Suddenly, a teasing male voice resounded clearly, "Hush! It's me!"

"..." Mingzhu froze all over, and stopped struggling and resisting.She recognized the voice, Gongsun Qingming?Just when she was confused and suspicious, the hand covering her mouth was released.Mingzhu turned around reflexively and pushed the man away.When he turned around, he saw Gongsun Qingming standing behind him.

Under the moonlight, Gongsun Qingming's tall and straight figure seemed a little vague.

He was just dressed in white, with a dazzling light.

He took out the jade fan and shook it lightly, and said in a low voice, "You little girl, what are you doing out here in the middle of the night without sleeping?"

"Gong, Sun, Qing, Ming!" Mingzhu heaved a sigh of relief, but her heart was about to split in two because of his actions just now.She gritted her teeth and shouted, stepped forward and snatched his fan, "Don't be like a ghost, okay!"

Gongsun Qingming shrugged and said softly, "Okay, I was wrong just now. I will apologize to you."

As he said, he bowed and apologized.

Mingzhu had no choice but to stare at him angrily.Not intending to continue entangled with him, just turned around and walked forward.Turning around, the fan in his hand was thrown backwards, "Give it back to you!"

"Hey? Watch out for the fan!" Gongsun Qingming hurriedly caught her, and ran after her.

Mingzhu ignored him and strode forward.

"It's so late, where are you going?" Gongsun Qingming asked.

"It's none of your business." Mingzhu flatly refused, obviously still annoyed.

Seeing that her expression was still tense, Gongsun Qingming naturally understood that he had indeed frightened her.He grabbed her wrist and said in a good voice, "It's really not intentional, isn't it okay to apologize?"

"If there is another time, I will definitely ignore you." Mingzhu said after being bored for a while, pursing her lips.

"No exception!" Gongsun Qingming quickly promised with a smile, and asked again, "Where are you going?"

Mingzhu stared at Lirong, and murmured, "I haven't gone anywhere, I can't sleep, come out for a walk."

"What a coincidence? I can't fall asleep either. Why don't we go for a walk together?" Gongsun Qingming cautiously suggested, and said with relief, "Walk with me, and you can avoid the patrolling guards."

Mingzhu glanced at him, and said angrily, "I'm afraid what the guards will do! I was going back to Yin'an Hall."

"Yes, yes, you don't have to be afraid now." Gongsun Qingming looked at her and smiled, his jade fan waving gracefully.

The two walked towards the front quietly, and the two figures, one tall and one lower, did not look abrupt.After walking for a while, Mingzhu couldn't help asking, "Gongsun Qingming, how long have you known him?"

"Him?" Gongsun Qingming deliberately pretended to be stupid, and Fox asked, "Which him?"

"It's just..." Mingzhu couldn't help being a little awkward when she mentioned him, "It's the prince..."

Gongsun Qingming glanced at her and said jokingly, "You mean the prince? I have known the prince for some years. The prince at that time hadn't been crowned king yet!"

"What did he do before?" Ming Zhu asked again when she heard him say that.

"Before? No one knew." Gongsun Qingming said vague words, making people puzzled.

"No one knows? How is it possible!" Mingzhu was surprised.

Gongsun Qingming nodded, "At least I don't know."

"Then what else do you know about him?" Mingzhu persisted.

Gongsun Qingming thought for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at her.Mingzhu waited patiently and looked at him.He finally opened his mouth and said in a deep voice, "My lord has a very cherished person."

Cherished person?who?

"Oh! Yin'an Palace is here! I'm going back to sleep too. See you tomorrow." He smiled, turned around and flew away.

Mingzhu wanted to ask who that person was, but was a step too late, "Gongsun..."

"Ah—" In the night sky, a shrill female voice sounded at just the right time, which made people startled.

Mingzhu shivered, and ran into Yin'an Hall in fright.

Nanny Rong died, that night.

According to Feng Zhanxiu's order, she was given a cup of poisoned wine and left with her whole body.It's just that the body doesn't know how to dispose of it.Mingzhu still remembered the miserable female voice that day, which kept circling in her ears.She couldn't help asking Xia'er if she heard her.But Xia Er shook her head, saying that she didn't hear anything.

I'm afraid it's because I slept too soundly, so I didn't feel anything at all.

Mingzhu felt uneasy, so she went to the temple again.

I've been there once before, so I didn't go astray this time.When I came to the temple, burned incense and prayed for blessings, it seemed that I was at peace.

On the way back to Yin'an Hall, I saw maids and servants moving here and there, or cleaning, or pruning.New Year's Eve is approaching, and the palace begins to be busy.Ming Zhu and Xia Er chatted and laughed without saying a word, and ran into two maidservants pacing forward.They didn't realize that there was someone behind them, so they stopped and whispered something.

"Have you heard? That Gu Ruo'er, she's crazy!"

"Ah? You mean Mrs. Gu from Yanyun Building?"

"That's her! She's crazy! Now she's unkempt, she's not like a human, she's not like a ghost! It's really strange how this good-looking person is crazy! Besides, I heard that she shouted that there are ghosts and ghosts all day long." !Could it be the ghost of Rongmao who came to look for her? Oh! It makes my scalp tingle!"

Mingzhu was startled, ran up behind them, and asked, "Who do you think is crazy? Gu Ruoer is crazy?"

"Slaves...slaves don't know anything!" The two maids immediately knelt down and replied tremblingly.

Mingzhu looked down at the two servant girls kneeling in front of her, and immediately frowned.

※※※

In front of the courtyard of Yanyun Building, two figures suddenly flashed.It was Mingzhu and Xiaer.After Mingzhu heard what the two maids said, she rushed here immediately.At this moment, she was standing at the arched doorway, and when she looked around, she could only see the coldness and loneliness, which was chilling.A gust of bleak wind was blowing, and a female sobbing faintly could be heard in the air.

Xia'er was so frightened that she clenched Mingzhu's sleeves and said tremblingly, "Master, this place is so scary. Let's go quickly."

"Xia'er, just wait for me outside." Mingzhu patted her little hand reassuringly, and said firmly.

"No, no! The servants must protect the master!" Xia'er became more courageous, but her expression became even more panicked.

Mingzhu turned her head and glanced at her, seeing that she was nervous but still trying to be brave, she couldn't bear it at the moment.After finding a reason at random, she ordered, "You can't go in with me. The prince has ordered that no one can enter casually. You stay outside and if someone comes, please notify me immediately."

"Master..." Xia Er hesitated.

Without waiting for her to make a decision, Mingzhu let go of her hand and ran into the courtyard.

"Master, be careful." Xia'er reminded her, only to see her figure turn around the corridor and disappear in an instant.

Mingzhu is very familiar with Yanyun Building.Looking around, she didn't find Dongmei and Dongzhu two maids.Strange, where did they go?Mingzhu was curious and even more confused.She looked around, but there was no one in every room.But the sobbing still came faintly.

Mingzhu stopped in her tracks, and looked around in search of fame.

That direction is Gu Ruoer's boudoir!

Subconsciously clenched her little hands, Mingzhu ran towards the boudoir.The closer they got, the closer the sobbing sound.Mingzhu finally walked to the boudoir, feeling that the sound of sobbing was only separated by a door.She took a deep breath, even though she was afraid, she still stretched out her hand and pushed towards the closed door.

"What are you doing here?" A ghostly male voice suddenly sounded from behind, extremely deep.

Mingzhu gasped, her eyes widened, and she turned around abruptly.

A slender figure appeared in front of her, and Feng Zhanxiu quietly appeared behind her.He looked at her calmly, with no strange expression on his face.Mingzhu bit her lip, and then met his eyes.She didn't intend to hide it, and said honestly, "I heard that she is crazy, so I'll take a look."

Feng Zhanxiu remained silent, and suddenly raised the corners of his lips, "She is indeed crazy."

"Why!" Mingzhu asked coldly.

Feng Zhanxiu walked up to her, raised his hand to stroke her hair that was close to her cheek, and said in a deep voice, "How does this king know? Crazy is crazy."

Mingzhu was out of breath, turned around and pushed open the door.

There was only a "creak—" sound, and the door gradually opened.

Mingzhu hadn't recovered yet, but a black shadow with disheveled hair rushed towards her.Before she even had time to yell, she was startled by those red eyes.Someone hugged her into his arms, protecting her with warm palms.

In the next second, a sneering female voice roared in her ear, "Go to hell! Go to hell! Haha! Hahaha! Go to hell!" She opened her hand, wanting to grab the two people outside the room, But he couldn't move forward because his feet were chained.Suddenly, there was another cry of horror, and he went back into the room and curled up in a corner.

"Wuwu, don't come here. Wuwu, don't come here. Don't come here. I didn't kill you..."

Mingzhu turned her head tremblingly, stunned.

Is that Gu Ruoer?How did she become like this?
Feng Zhanxiu took a step back with his arms around her, and said in a deep voice, "Be careful, she will hurt you."

Everyone stepped forward and closed the door, and the moment the door closed, Gu Ruoer's hesitant and desolate face was frozen in Mingzhu's mind.She broke away from Feng Zhanxiu suddenly, and took a step back, "Why is this..."

"You tell me why she is crazy! Tell me!"

Feng Zhanxiu stared at her, his eyes shivered, "You are not allowed to step into the Yanyun Tower for half a step in the future! Let the people leave! Send people to guard this place! No one is allowed to enter without the king's order!"

"Yes!" The crowd responded.

Mingzhu bit her lip and remained silent for a while.It's not that she froze in place and walked, and it's not that she didn't go.In the end, he walked helplessly towards the outside of the Yanyun Building.The whole person seemed to be lost, without any energy, just muttering to himself, "How could this be...how could this be...how could..."

Feng Zhanxiu looked at her leaving figure, and stood alone on the spot without moving for a long time.

The tall and straight figure reflects a ray of loneliness, which seems to be absent.
