Sun Yixin said that Xiao Yi's biological mother, Dafang, was murdered? !
For a moment, the surroundings were silent, deathly silent.
Nangong Yue looked at Xiao Yi's eyes as cold as frost, and felt a little worried, so she quickly shook his hand vigorously.
Since Nangong Yue arrived in southern Xinjiang, Que'er would pass some news from the people in the palace to her from time to time, including the cause of Dafang's death. When I was one year old, I went there. I heard that Da Fang felt colic in her abdomen the day before she gave birth, and she vomited and vomited. She asked a good doctor from the Wangfu Medical Center to prescribe a prescription to relieve the pain...
At the beginning, Nangong Yue felt that these symptoms were somewhat suspicious, but just a few words that might be embellished were not enough to prove it. What's more, in the vicissitudes of life, things change and people change. In the palace, there has long been no old man who is close to Dafang's side to serve him. Now the one who knows a little bit is just the rough envoy woman in the palace back then, just echoing what others say.
Even Nangong Yue once suspected that the first concubine was suffering from dystocia because Mrs. Qiao gave shoes to Zhennan Wang Saimei, and she was depressed...
Thinking about it, Nangong Yue's brows were tightly furrowed, while Xiao Yi's face was as deep as water, the corner of his mouth curled up, and he sneered, "I'd like to see what tricks she can play."
Xiao Yi's voice was so cold that it seemed to come from the deepest part of hell. Zhu Zi looked at his eldest son worriedly, but didn't dare to say anything, and quietly led the way...
The death cell in Yanding City is just to the north of the city, about five or six miles away, Xiao Yi borrowed a horse from a patrolling soldier, and rode away with Nangong Yue, but it was only a cup of tea.
In the death cell, it was cold, damp and dark. Once you walked in, it was as if you had stepped into another world. There was no more light and hope.
"My lord, my concubine, please follow me."
The bearded prisoner held an oil lamp and led the way tremblingly, leading the two of them to an empty discipline room. The cell boss had already lit a few oil lamps inside in advance, and the oil lamps emitted dim yellow candlelight, and the candlelight danced, casting a half-bright shadow on Xiao Yi's face, making him look like a Rakshasa.
In the discipline room, the atmosphere was solemn and depressing.
After the two sat down, not long after, the cell boss ordered someone to bring Sun Xinyi over.
Sun Xinyi was still wearing the lake-colored dress from before, with her slender waist straight. Even at this time, her hair was still neatly combed. Although the dress was a little wrinkled, it was barely clean. There was a hint of ruthlessness.
She quickly swept over Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue with somewhat speculative eyes, and then stayed on Nangong Yue for a moment, as if surprised why she also came.
"Xin Yi sees Shi Zi Ye and Shi Zi Concubine."
Without hesitation, Sun Xinyi knelt down on the cold stone floor with a "plop".
Looking at Sun Xinyi's expression, Nangong Yue knew that even if she was locked up in death row, she still had no intention of introspecting herself.
Nangong Yue secretly shook her head in her heart, and sat silently beside her.
At this moment, Xiao Yi returned to his usual appearance, with a half-smile on his lips.
"I heard that you want to see this son?" Xiao Yi said casually, playing with the teacup in his hand.
Although Xiao Yi didn't mention the Dafang family, Sun Xinyi certainly understood why Xiao Yi was willing to see her, otherwise, with her capital crime, how could the dignified son condescend to come to see her.
Sun Xinyi took a deep breath, not daring to make circles with Xiao Yi, and said straight to the point: "My lord, Xinyi is willing to tell everything I know, and I hope my lord will spare Xinyi's life! Let Xinyi leave Yanding City safely, and agree Don't pursue everything in the past!"
Xiao Yi glanced at Sun Xinyi, and said lightly: "Speak up. This son wants to see if what you said is worth your life!"
Sun Xinyi was overjoyed, the cause of death of the son's biological mother was of course much more important than the life of her mere criminal daughter.
She straightened her thoughts, and said in an orderly manner: "Master, Xinyi's aunt used to be a sweeping maid in Fang's mansion when she was young. At that time, the Fang family had not yet separated.... When she was sweeping by the rockery, Hearing two people talking in the rockery cave by chance, my aunt accidentally made some noises, startling the other party, and finally confused them with cat meowing... Later, it happened that the first princess brought her maid to the direction of the rockery to admire them. scene, and the two people who were talking were startled away."
Hearing this, Xiao Yi showed a cold expression, and asked in a deep voice: "Did your aunt see who those two are?"
Sun Xinyi hurriedly replied: "Back to Shizi, my aunt didn't see it clearly, but only knew that one of them was a young woman, and the other man had an accent from Baiyue. My aunt heard the man say, 'As long as you help my king get it. The iron mine at Sigle Mountain, where your home is, will not lose your benefits...'" Sun Xinyi carefully glanced at the expressionless Xiao Yi, and continued, "The next day, the two maids in charge of sweeping the garden will leave He was beaten to death by the master for committing a crime. In fact, Xinyi's aunt was not in charge of cleaning the rockery that day, but because a good sister was unwell, she helped her to do the work."
Sun Xinyi's aunt is not a fool, she immediately wanted to understand why her good sister was beaten to death.
It was clear that the two people who spoke were still suspicious, so they killed each other to silence them!
"My aunt knew that something was wrong, so she bought a man who often came to Fang's mansion in advance, found an opportunity to deliberately break a celadon vase in the flower hall, and contradicted the nurse in charge, and then she was sold... "That Ren Yazi was also trustworthy, and chose a good family for Sun Xinyi's aunt, so she had the opportunity to enter the Sun's house as a maid. She became pregnant and raised her as an aunt...
Sun Xinyi paused, as if thinking of something, her eyes became obscured.
She took a deep breath before continuing: "Half a year ago, when the Nanliang army approached the city, Yanding City was about to be destroyed. My mother gathered all the women of my Sun family in her yard. Everyone hanged themselves. Xinyi's aunt knew that she would die, so she quietly told Xinyi about all these things back then."
Sun Xinyi's aunt told her all this in the hope that Sun Xinyi would not give up easily. Even the former concubine died, but she won a chance to live. Although she didn't win a second chance, Sun Xinyi might not have a chance.
Sun Xinyi gritted her teeth, and said: "...My lord, the former concubine passed away not long after that day, maybe they thought she heard something, so they killed her to silence her!"
After she finished speaking, the surroundings fell into dead silence, which made Sun Xinyi a little scared, her heart speeding up "thumping", echoing in her ears.
Ever since she was blackmailed by Nanliang yesterday and was found out by the concubine Shi Zi, she knew that she was finished. However, she was not reconciled, she was not reconciled to dying like this, why should she pay for that ignorant child who was only two years old? She thought hard all night, and suddenly it occurred to her that the secret that her aunt had inadvertently told herself seemed to win her a chance of life.
Seeing that Xiao Yi still didn't speak for a while, Sun Xinyi plucked up the courage to look up, met the other's dark eyes, and said again: "My lord, although Xinyi has no proof, so many years have passed now, the world has changed, But the Fang family is still here, and with your means, son, if you want to verify this matter, it is very possible... "
She talked endlessly, knowing that although what she knew was shocking secrets, the bad thing was empty words.
"Take her down."
Xiao Yi didn't want to hear her babbling anymore, and interrupted her with six words.
Sun Xinyi's eyes widened in disbelief, Xiao Yi, what does this mean? Didn't he promise to let himself go
"You... my son, how can you not keep your word?!" Sun Xinyi blurted out and asked.
There was a voice in her heart screaming, shouldn't it be like this? !
Although the eldest son Xiao Yi looks like a fool, but from the way he manages the army, it can be seen that he is by no means a dude like his appearance. The way to run an army is to keep one promise, how can Xiao Yi go back on what he says? !
Isn't he afraid of ruining his own reputation? !
Xiao Yi looked at Sun Xinyi coldly, his eyes were one point sharp, two points disdainful, and three points cold, and said slowly: "For a gentleman, of course, we must treat each other with sincerity, as promised, but for even people Wouldn’t it be ridiculous to talk about etiquette and honesty for a beast that doesn’t go up?!” Since she even gave up the way of being a human being, do you still want to expect others to treat her as a human being
Xiao Yi's few words were like pouring a basin of cold water from head to bottom, completely extinguishing the flame in Sun Xinyi's heart, and she almost went limp.
The cell boss quickly invited two people according to Xiao Yi's instructions, and Sun Xinyi was also very familiar with these two people, they were Li Shoubei and Mr. Jing Qian.
Originally, Li Shoubei and Mr. Jing Qian were going to take Sun Xinyi away early this morning. Who would have thought that Sun Xinyi would claim that she knew the cause of the former concubine Dafang's death as soon as she came out of prison!
This matter was no small matter, after the prison chief consulted Li Shoubei and Mr. Jing Qian, he immediately sent someone to report to Xiao Yi.
Li Shoubei and Jing Qian waited in another discipline room until Xiao Yi sent someone to summon him.
Both Li Shoubei and Mr. Jing Qian looked at Sun Xinyi with complicated eyes. Both of them were old friends with Sun Shoubei who went first, especially Mr. Jing Qian, who had been friends with Sun Shoubei for many years, and treated Sun Xinyi as his own junior. Since he came to Yanding City, he has always taken good care of Sun Xinyi, lest he might wrong her old friend.
Mr. Jing Qian had already planned in his heart. Sun Xinyi has no father or mother, no relatives and no reason. It belongs to the Sun family's property, so it will naturally be handed over to her. If there are evil servants who dare to deceive the master, they will have their elders Call the shots for her. In the future, when the three-year filial piety period expires, it will be considered worthy of Sun Shoubei who is under Jiuquan to marry her... Mr. Jing Qian even considered whether to recruit Sun Xinyi to marry him, so as to leave a trace of blood for the Sun family.
But thinking about it now, everything is so ironic and ridiculous.
Mr. Jing Qian stared at Sun Xinyi who was kneeling on the ground without blinking, his eyes almost popped out. He really wanted to peel off Sun Xinyi's skin and see what color her heart was... A two-year-old child, even if he had no relationship with her, ordinary people would not be able to bear to kill her, but Sun Xinyi even killed her. My nephew can also do it!
The Sun family is full of heroes, how could a pot of porridge be ruined by such a mouse feces like her!
However, she couldn't simply kill her once and for all... However, one has to pay the price for what one has done!
"Master... um!" Sun Xinyi wanted to say something, but was immediately covered by a jailer and forced to go down. Li Shoubei and Mr. Jing Qian also resigned.
The small discipline room fell silent again, only Xiao Yi, Nangong Yue and the cell boss who had led them the way were left.
The prison chief was a little uneasy, he almost didn't even dare to take a breath, until Xiao Yi turned his head and said to Nangong Yue: "Ah Yue, let's go." The prison chief was secretly relieved, and led the way attentively.
The light in the death row was dim and unclear, and the air was even more humid and filthy, filled with a hopeless and oppressive atmosphere, which made people feel gloomy.
The moment the prison door was pushed open, it was a bright light, the sun was still shining outside, and the slight cold wind brought the slightly cold winter air to blow towards the face, carrying the fragrance of the sun.
The two stopped riding, and walked slowly holding hands.
Nangong Yue turned her head to look at Xiao Yi from time to time, his side face was deep and perfect, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed at this moment, showing a bit of indifference.
But Nangong Yue knew that he was not as calm as he showed, and this matter was related to Xiao Yi's biological mother, so how could he calm down.
All she needs to do now is to be by his side.
The two walked forward slowly, aimlessly.
I don't know how long it took, Xiao Yi suddenly said: "Stinky girl, do you think what the surname Sun said is true?" His voice could not hide the obscurity. Although Xiao Yi has no impression of his biological mother at all, it is human nature to have blood affection.
Xiao Yi knows that what Sun Xinyi said is very likely to be true, not to mention anything else, whether there is any Fang family's iron mine near Sigle Mountain, and who owns it now, it couldn't be easier to check.
This point, the couple are well aware.
Nangong Yue pondered for a while, talked about what Que'er told her, and then asked: "A Yi, how much do you know about the difficult labor of the mother and concubine? You can also find the pulse case at that time... "
Xiao Yi pursed his thin lips, with a downcast expression, and said: "I really don't know much about the concubine mother. Since I can remember, few people have mentioned the concubine mother in front of me. It is only you who occasionally mention it. What I just said... Not a few years after the death of the concubine mother, all the people in the mansion who served her concubine personally were dismissed by Xiao Fang. As for the good doctors in the mansion, they have changed several times in the past ten years... "
As he said that, Xiao Yi remembered something, "So, it seems to me that more than ten years ago, a good doctor was beaten to death because he had an affair with a married woman." , There was also an uproar in the palace, and Xiao Yi could not help but accidentally overheard people chatting with each other many times, and it didn't stop until Xiao Fang issued a password-blocking order. Now that I think about it, is it really that simple? Is someone killing people again? !
Xiao Yi's hands clenched into fists unconsciously.
Nangong Yue thought about it and said, "Maybe we can try to find the stable woman at that time."
However, Nangong Yue didn't hold out much hope. After all, if there was a real problem, the other party killed even a good doctor, so how could she keep her stable wife!
After a pause, Nangong Yue said comfortingly: "Ayi, if you do something, there will always be traces, especially with the clue of Sigle Mountain... We will investigate carefully, and we will always find a clue."
Xiao Yi couldn't help laughing, took Nangong Yue's hand, and comforted her instead: "Stinky girl, this matter has been going on for so many years, so there is no rush."
Nangong Yue smiled at him, nodded, and said in her heart: After she returns to Luoyue City, she will inquire carefully and slowly.
Thinking about it, Nangong Yue's eyes turned cold.
Putting aside all the turmoil in his heart for a while, Xiao Yi dullly realized that the two of them had walked near the city gate unknowingly.
"Brother! Sister-in-law!"
A familiar voice came from the front right, and Yu Xiufan, who was wearing a suit of armor, was striding towards the two of them, with Chang Huaixi at his side. The hair of the two was messy, and there were a lot of blood stains on their battle robes. It was obvious that they had just come off the battlefield, and they described it as a bit embarrassed.
Yu Xiufan clasped his fists to Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue with a smile, and said, "Brother, are you here to inspect the city defense?"
Xiao Yi was startled, he had come here by accident, but after hearing Yu Xiufan's mention, he felt that it was a good idea to take the stinky girl up the city wall.
He looked at Nangong Yue with a questioning look. Nangong Yue had never been on the city wall before, so she readily agreed.
The eye movement between them did not escape the eyes of Xiu Fan and Chang Huaixi, Yu Xiufan couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "How about Xiao Xizi and I go up and walk together?" While he was speaking, Chang Huaixi The corners of Xi's eyes twitched, this Yu Xiufan casually spoke for him again!
So the four of them climbed up the city wall back and forth along the stone steps.
Along the way, only the voices of the soldiers saluting to Xiao Yi were heard one after another: "I have met the son!"
All the soldiers were refreshed, raised their heads and held their chests high, and their voices were even louder, more powerful, and majestic, which made the blood of those who heard it boil, even though Nangong Yue was just a little girl, even though Nangong Yue had never been on the battlefield , also at the center of these calls, the tide was surging and impassioned, and I deeply felt the respect from the hearts of the soldiers.
Perhaps, in the eyes of Nanliang, Xiao Yi is the cruel god of killing, but in the eyes of these southern border troops, he is the god of war who brings victory!
Soon, Xiao Yi, Nangong Yue and his party walked up to the top of the city gate, looking down from the city wall high above the outside of the city.
At this moment, the battlefield outside the city has already been roughly cleaned up. Most of the tens of thousands of enemy corpses were moved to the incineration site for burning. However, there are still many dark red blood stains left on the city walls and the ground. The smell pervades all around...
But everyone didn't care, and their faces were filled with joy after victory.
Xiao Yi shook Nangong Yue's hand slightly, and looked at her with showy eyes, as if saying: He can guard this great land for his concubine! He will make her the most honorable woman in southern Xinjiang!
The eyes of the two were fixed in the air, Yu Xiufan who was on the side suddenly felt that he was superfluous, Chang Huaixi gave him a look without sympathy, as if to say, it's not you who insisted on following!
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps from the direction of the stone steps, followed by a rough male voice: "What?! The prince and concubine also came just now?! The prince really left Take the concubine with you everywhere... Haha, old Wu, don't say that I'm afraid of my wife in the future, isn't the concubine the same..."
While talking, I saw two unshaven middle-aged soldiers walking up the city wall while talking and laughing. They immediately saw Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue, and couldn't help showing embarrassment, especially the dark-faced one who spoke just now.
There was a silence on the city wall, and everyone present wished they could disappear immediately, thinking: Look at this person who can't speak too much! Why is he afraid of his wife? ! The son and the concubine are deeply in love!
Xiao Yi was very proud, he laughed boldly, and said to the black-faced soldier: "Old Ling, you really have eyesight!"
He didn't say it clearly, but the implication behind his words was clearly affirming the other party's joke just now.
After finishing speaking, he winked at Nangong Yue, as if to say: Look, what a sharp eye she has!
Nangong Yue was a little embarrassed, her cheeks were stained with a faint glow. This Ah Yi, is fear so good that it can be used as a joke? Don't be afraid to ruin his majesty in the army!
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many people here, Nangong Yue would almost have given him an angry look.
But, all that aside, it's kind of fun.
Nangong Yue was shy for a while, angry for a while, and couldn't help laughing for a while.
For a while, the atmosphere on the city wall became much more relaxed, and many soldiers couldn't help laughing out loud...
A gust of cold wind passed by, sending out the laughter and joy, and even the bloody smell around seemed to have faded a lot...
