As soon as the dim light from the lantern outside the door shone in, Peng Ying felt that a string in his body was suddenly broken.
He stopped hitting the pillar and suddenly laughed. Then he aimed hard at the pillar and hit his head hard.
There was a sudden "bang" sound, and Hongye, who was about to look up when he just entered the door, was stunned for a moment and looked along the source of the sound.
Before he could see clearly, everything suddenly went dark. The candlesticks in the room and the lantern in Xuanya's hand were all extinguished by Ye Xiu with a flick of his sleeves.
"What, what's wrong?" Hongye was puzzled, looking at the darkness in front of him, and the faint smell of blood coming from the tip of his nose, his face changed, "Wen Tian?"
Wen Tian suddenly reacted, turned around hurriedly, blocked Hong Ye, and led him out of the house.
It wasn't until he was standing in the courtyard outside that he relighted the lantern in Xuanya's hand and said in a hoarse voice, "Let's go. You're not feeling well. I'll take you back to the house to rest first."
"What happened inside? I heard that Peng Ying was... "
"It's okay, I'll explain to you later..." He couldn't continue, but he could see clearly just now that Peng Ying had... hit a pillar and died, right in front of him.
Hong Ye keenly felt that his mood was a little strange, and did not dare to ask any more questions. He nodded quickly and said, "Okay, let's go back to the house to rest first."
It wasn't until they walked far away and the light of the lantern gradually disappeared in the yard that Yu Qingluo lit the candle again.
There was light in the room again, and everyone's eyes fell on Peng Ying almost immediately.
He hit it with all his strength, leaving no chance for himself at all. After hitting the pillar, his eyes fell in the direction of the door, his eyes widened, and he seemed to be looking at someone greedily. Same as people.
Mo Xian bit his lower lip. He felt very heavy when Peng Ying ended up like this.
He slowly stepped forward and closed Peng Ying's eyes.
Ye Xiu glanced at Peng Ying alone, stood up suddenly, and said to Mo Xian, "I'll leave him to you."
After that, he left without looking back.
Yu Qingluo sighed, glanced at Peng Ying, and said to Xuanya, "Please help me."
Xuanya jumped, "Why... I, eh..." Looking at Yu Qingluo who hurriedly left alone with Ye Xiu, leaving only her back, Xuanya was about to explode.
Is she just there to look after people and deal with the aftermath
Yu Qingluo followed Ye Xiu all the way back to his courtyard. He walked in a hurry. When he reached the door of the room, he said to Yue Xin who was sitting there sewing clothes, "You ask someone to bring water in, and go to Lan." I gave an order in Sheng's room, telling Nannan to stay with Lan Sheng tonight and not come here."
Yuexin was confused for a moment, then nodded immediately, turned and left.
Soon the two of them were left in the room. Yu Qingluo sighed secretly, walked behind Ye Xiudu, put her hands on his back and squeezed him gently, "I know you have been in love with him for many years. , and you haven’t treated him as a servant for a long time. He betrayed you. Although you haven’t said anything these days, you must feel uncomfortable in your heart. But now that the matter is over, what are you thinking about so much? "
Ye Xiudu rubbed his eyebrows, lay back slightly, and leaned directly on the soft couch.
"I didn't think much about it, it's just... a little unpleasant."
Yu Qingluo laughed and said nothing more. She just turned her hand to his arm and squeezed his hand.
The room became quiet for a long time before hearing Ye Xiudu's sudden voice, "It's just... I wasted a good antidote of yours."
"Pfft..." Yu Qingluo couldn't help laughing, "It's not a waste. If I hadn't sold you that medicine for such a high price, I would have known you were Nan Nan's father. I left. It was because I couldn’t bear the money in your hand that I took the risk and followed you back to the imperial capital at the risk of being discovered by you. It was also because you saw the flower-shaped birthmark on Nan Nan’s body while loading up the money. Get up, you and I have today thanks to that medicine."
Ye Xiu laughed alone and said, "Now you are not asking for trouble? You knew the relationship between Nannan and I but you still tried your best to hide it. You should be taught a lesson."
After saying that, he really came to catch her.
Yu Qingluo hurriedly stood up and took two steps back. At this moment, Yue Xin's voice came from outside, "Miss, the water is here."
Yu Qingluo quickly straightened the expression on her face, coughed slightly, and let Yue Xin in.
After putting out the bath water, Yu Qingluo pushed Ye Xiu to take a bath alone, "It's been a tiring day today, so hurry up and go to bed. Aren't you still going to talk to those people in Yufeng Hall tomorrow? Meng Xin and Meng The concubine is dead, and the Seventh Prince will get the news soon, and I don’t know what trouble will happen again.”
Ye Xiu nodded and went to wash up obediently.
Yu Qingluo took a look at Xu Rou. Everything was fine and the maid was taking care of her.
Ye Lansheng and Nan Nan were tired all day today, exhausted both mentally and physically, and looked drowsy, so she drove them to bed.
She asked the housekeeper again about the situation of the third prince and the third princess. The third prince woke up and knew that the matter was settled and it was getting late, so he said he would come to see Ye Xiudu the next day.
Wen Tian and Hong Ye returned to the house, not knowing what to say. Let them handle the matters between them themselves.
Peng Ying's body has also been handed over to Mo Xian for disposal.
As for the deposed prince... It is said that he woke up. As soon as he woke up, he started to curse. Before he could say a few words, he was knocked unconscious by Fan Qiyun, and he was not even given food.
After Yu Qingluo had a general understanding, he returned to the yard.
Ye Xiudu was already lying on the bed, breathing steadily, as if he was asleep.
She washed up quietly, then quietly lifted the quilt and lay down in it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she lay next to him, he hugged her whole body.
"Did I wake you?"
"No, it's because I can't sleep. Have you visited Peng Ying?"
"No." Yu Qingluo turned over and faced him, "Mo Xian has already gone to deal with it, so I won't look at it. He and Peng Ying have been in a relationship for many years and will handle it well."
"Yeah." Ye Xiudu didn't say much and closed his eyes.
But seeing how he couldn't sleep, Yu Qingluo couldn't help but frown, got up and lit the incense, and then lay down next to him again.
Ye Xiu laughed alone and hugged her tighter, "It's great to have you."
"That's the truth. If it weren't for me, you would definitely not be able to sleep tonight."
Ye Xiudu smiled again and closed his eyes, but his nerves seemed still tense.
Yu Qingluo pressed his temples and talked with him, "You, if Peng Ying didn't commit suicide today, then... would you really kill him?"
