In the late winter of Dizi Mountain, heavy snow falls.
In the afternoon, Qiu Yilan trudged on the path leading to the top of the mountain.
The snow was falling heavily, and the wind was blowing down from the top of the mountain. Even though she took off her fur coat for easier movement, she was still struggling.
"Cousin, cousin! Let me go! Let me go!" Kang Jinzhang, whose hands and feet were tightly tied with water-soaked hemp ropes, was dragged through the snow with a rope, and his tears followed His nose turned to ice, and he begged in horror, "It was Yue Zhi who seduced me! You believe me! Believe me... I am your cousin, your biological cousin!"
"I just remembered that you are my brother now?" Qiu Yilan stopped, wiped the snow from her face, turned her head, looked at him with a half-smile, and said in a cold voice, "You came into my room in the middle of the night. "Why didn't you think about it? Yue Zhi just accepted it on my behalf. Do you think I don't know who you really wanted to touch that night?"
Kang Jinzhang was shocked: "You know?!"
"I had something to go out that night, so I asked Yue Zhi to sleep in my bed instead of me, but I didn't want to hurt her..." Qiu Yilan smiled softly, as gorgeous as a plum blossom, but she lifted the hemp rope without hesitation, Keep climbing.
"That night... I drank too much that night! Really!" Kang Jinzhang vaguely remembered that this direction was a cliff. He was so frightened that he begged incoherently, "Cousin, listen to me! Yuezhi is just a maid, and grandma loves her the most. Me, as long as you let me go this time and go back to be better than her, I will find you ten, no, a hundred!"
Seeing that Qiu Yilan was indifferent, he quickly said, "Cousin, do you know? There is something wrong with the marriage that your grandmother asked your uncle to arrange for you..." Feeling Qiu Yilan's movements speeding up, Kang Jinzhang exclaimed, "Then Although Deng Yi is the nephew of the King of Guangyang and is tall and handsome, he can only act like a man! As long as you let me go, cousin, I will ask my grandmother to break the engagement!"
"Old General Ruan is already terminally ill. He is my cousin's direct maternal grandfather! If you kill me, you will definitely not be able to hide it from your grandmother. Even the fact that you secretly followed General Ruan to learn martial arts will be exposed! Do you want the last paragraph of General Ruan? Can't you live in peace?" Kang Jinzhang racked his brains to think of a reason, and said earnestly, "And the second aunt - your mother is not in good health. Isn't it just to please your grandma that I sent you here this time? …Aren’t you afraid that grandma will ask your mother to kill me?”
Qiu Yilan put him down again, smiled at him, leaned down, and slapped him twice!
"Keep talking, I'm listening, see if you can persuade me to let you live?" Finally, she dragged Kang Jinzhang again, but said leisurely.
Kang Jinzhang watched the cliff getting closer and closer, terrified to death: "There is a secret. If you kill me, you will never know it in this life!"
"Oh?" Qiu Yilan smiled as she asked, "What's the secret?"
"Your brother's death!" As soon as these words came out, he was indeed let go.
Kang Jinzhang felt relieved and said quickly: "Third cousin, he was not killed by you at all! I heard with my own ears that he was killed by our family!" For fear that Qiu Yilan would change his mind, he said in one breath , "It's because not long after the news of your father's death in the war came back, your third cousin also died, just in time for your cousin to be born. Grandma thought that you killed your father and your brother, so she always hated you..."
"So what?" Qiu Yilan brushed her hair and smiled at him, but there was no smile in her eyes. "You knew but didn't say it. After so many years, what evidence can you still have? I know I don’t know, so what does it matter?”
"There is evidence! There is evidence!" Kang Jinzhang was anxious, "I can testify for you! I heard it with my own ears! Grandma will definitely believe me, you know she loves me the most!"
Qiu Yilan glanced at him with pity and sighed: "But it's useless! The man is already dead. If the murderer is found, he will not survive."
After saying that, he continued to drag him up the mountain.
Seeing that they were not far from the cliff, Kang Jinzhang struggled desperately on the snow and cried bitterly: "Cousin, you... no! Cousin, please let me go! Please! Please! I will never dare to try against you again." No more! I don’t dare to cause trouble with your second wife! As long as you let me go, I can do anything you want! I beg you! We are brothers and sisters!”
Qiu Yilan actually looked thoughtful.
Kang Jinzhang was as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "Cousin, say it! Just say it! Hasn't my aunt always bullied you? If I go back and say a word, my grandmother will..."
"Do you have the antidote for Youmianxiang?" Qiu Yilan asked softly, "If you do, I will send you down the mountain right away!"
"Youmianxiang?" Kang Jinzhang was extremely shocked, "There is no antidote for Youmianxiang... No! Cousin, there really is no one! If you change the conditions, I will definitely do it for you... "
Qiu Yilan pursed her lips and chuckled: "That's no need - didn't you just say that General Ruan and your second aunt were both dying of illness? They were all given this sleeping incense by your good grandmother Lu. ! Otherwise, I knew you had evil intentions in coaxing me to come to this remote mountain, so why would you listen to your second aunt and come here?"
"You think I have the antidote for Youmianxiang?!" Kang Jinzhang was so regretful that he almost wanted to hit the wall and shouted hurriedly, "Wait a minute! I remembered that my grandmother seemed to have asked me to take care of a box, and she seemed to have told me to talk to Youmianxiang. About…”
"I don't expect to get the antidote from you." Qiu Yilan interrupted his hope with a smile, dragged him to the cliff, and said calmly, "Don't expect your second aunt to save your life, do you know why? ?”
Kang Jinzhang felt that half of his body was outside the cliff and half inside the cliff. He was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder split. He subconsciously asked: "Why?"
"Because the mother of this body should have died of the poison a few days ago." Qiu Yilan looked at him with a smile, "She asked her daughter to come here before taking the poison. What she liked was that it was deep in the mountains, old forests, snowy, and inaccessible. What an escape!”
While pushing Kang Jinzhang away from the cliff, she smiled and said words that Kang Jinzhang couldn't understand, "In order to let her daughter leave the Qiu family with peace of mind, You Mianxiang, the mother in this body, would rather commit suicide early even though she can still wait for half a year. … Now that I have taken over someone else’s daughter’s body, I feel guilty if I don’t do something for them, don’t you think?”
"ah!!!!"
"Originally you may not die, but if you shout like this, it will be even worse to be buried alive!" A moment later, amid the rumbling sound of an avalanche, Qiu Yilan hid in a cave near the cliff and sighed, "Actually, I really didn't think about it. I'll throw you to death, I just want you to freeze down there for a while before I ask questions..."
