Legend has it that at the end of life, people will have hallucinations in front of their eyes, and they will see the most difficult and unforgettable person in their life. And she tried her best to hate him, so why was he the last person she saw? !
It seemed like a long time passed, but it seemed like only a moment passed. She just slowly raised her heavy eyelids. The light was dim and she couldn't see the surrounding scenery clearly. Ha... It was indeed a hellish underworld, without even a trace of light.
"Su Su!" An urgent and familiar call sounded in her ears. Su Li raised his eyes slightly. In his blurry vision, Dongfang Ze's face drifted left and right, like slight ripples on the surface of a lake, with unpredictable ups and downs.
Su Li was slightly startled. She was already dead, so why did she still hear him and see him? Will she still have to carry the entanglement of love and hate in the past with her into the next life? Yes, he is always so domineering, regardless of her wishes!
Inexplicable grievance welled up, and she couldn't help but yell out bitterly: "Dongfang Ze, you... bastard!"
"Yes, it's all my fault that I made you hurt.
! "He was very upset.
She moved, wanting to get further away from him, but unexpectedly, her heart hurt and she gasped.
"What's wrong?" He nervously lowered his head to check. She happened to raise her head slightly, and her soft red lips brushed against his lips.
Su Li felt like she was getting an electric shock. The arms hugging her slender waist stiffened for a moment, he paused, and the next second he kissed her hard.
Su Li couldn't breathe. She could only feel his hot lips and tongue stirring in her mouth, almost swallowing her into her belly. The exciting breath, accompanied by the sweet and sour taste, constantly impacted her senses.
She wanted to push him away, but she didn't have any strength. In the midst of despair, a thought suddenly flashed across his mind. No matter how much love and hatred there was in the past, the entanglement between him and her would never continue in the next life. In this case, why should we suppress the farewell in the illusion at this moment? Thinking of this, her heart couldn't help but feel painful. She suddenly raised her hands to grab his shoulders and kissed him back heavily.
She tried her best, as if she wanted to melt all the painful struggle and love and hate she had endured for months into this kiss.
His eyes widened, and ecstasy instantly overwhelmed him.
She didn't dare to blink, for fear of missing anything, this last look at him.
Their eyes met each other, abandoning all grudges and hatreds, only the surge of love, earth-shaking, as if he and she were the only ones left in the world.
The fierce response made him unable to restrain himself, but he struggled at the juncture of burning desire. No, he couldn't have her. He wanted to push her away, but she held on tightly.
She had been suppressed for too long, and the unspeakable loneliness and despair in her heart suddenly found an outlet to vent.
How to let go? How can you let go
She suddenly opened her mouth and bit his lip. The taste of blood instantly filled her mouth, mixed with the sweetness of despair, and swallowed it into her stomach.
His body stiffened, and his only rationality collapsed in an instant. He could no longer refuse, and held her tighter, almost burying her in his arms.
Four lips, fiery, entangled, selfless.
Su Li's breathing became heavier and she raised her head unconsciously. His kiss fell to her ear, which was her most sensitive part.
. A shuddering, familiar heat rushes into my heart, and my body immediately becomes numb and limp every inch. As soon as the baby was born, his heart suddenly contracted, and suffocating pain rolled in his chest. She couldn't help but exert force when stroking his back, her brows furrowed, and she couldn't help but open her mouth wide and gasp violently. She didn't understand why the Jueqing Dan also reacted in the hallucination
"Damn it!" He broke out in a cold sweat and hugged her tightly, trying his best to calm the raging desire. Annoyed that he lost control for a moment, he even forgot that she still had the poison of the Heartless Pill in her body!
He put his palm against her heart and used kung fu to help her stop the pain. Cold sweat broke out on Su Li's forehead. The pain slowly subsided. Only then did she wake up completely and found herself lying on the bed in Xianju Garden! Then... the man in front of me is not an illusion at all? !
"You... you... you are real..." Su Li glared at him, with a hint of hoarseness in her voice.
Her face was as pale as snow, but the man beside her, who was holding her in his arms, looked even uglier than hers.
Dongfang Ze stared at her, frightened when he thought of the danger just now. If he had come a moment later, maybe she would have died in the battle! Thinking of this, his voice actually became hoarse: "Why are you stuck in the formation?"
Trapped in the formation! Su Li was startled, and she hurriedly pushed away his hand that was still around her waist, "I, I'm not dead?"
"I don't allow it!" His pale face flashed a few times, and he hugged her tightly again stubbornly, gritting his teeth and saying: "Don't say a word of death to me again! Do you understand?!"
Su Li looked at him blankly, speechless for a moment. Was he the one who saved her? That... the passionate kiss with him in the hallucination was actually real
He lowered his head and kissed her gently on the lips, "Susu, I will never let you leave me again..."
Su Li quickly grabbed the collar of his clothes, pushed his face away an inch, and stared wide-eyed, "You really saved me? Then I..." She was dumb for a moment, shocked and angry, and couldn't continue. .
"You are ruthless and have erysipelas. Fortunately, it's nothing serious." He breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile gradually grew in his eyes. He seemed to be happy that she had taken the initiative just now. He hugged her tightly and still didn't let go. "You don't understand. Formation, why did you fall into it?"
Su Li's heart skipped a beat and she quickly pushed him away and sat up. She fumbled for the vial from her sleeve and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was intact.
He glanced at it and frowned: "What is this?"
"I do not know either
. Su Li frowned, "Yang Xiao caught the assassin in the formation, I went to help him, and what I picked up under the tree may be related to the killer..."
"Are you willing to risk your life for this thing?" His brows furrowed even more tightly, and his face became uglier, obviously disapproving of her actions, "Why didn't you wait for me to come?"
Su Li said coldly: "I don't have the habit of counting on others for everything."
After she regained consciousness, she returned to her former indifference and alienation. It turned out that he was just "someone else" in her heart... Dongfangze's eyes dimmed slightly, and he just sighed lightly and said nothing.
There was still a faint blush on his lips, thinking of her biting him so hard just now. Her heart softened suddenly, and she turned her eyes away, not daring to look at him again, and whispered: "Why are you going up the mountain now? Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
Dongfangze said softly: "Yang Xiao chased the assassin all the way up the mountain. I couldn't feel relieved, so I came up to take a look. Fortunately, I'm here..." He looked at her deeply, fear flashing in his eyes.
Su Li's heart trembled slightly, and she deliberately changed the subject, "The logo of Ruifeng Camp was found on the assassin just now. Yang Xiao has gone to verify this person's identity."
Dongfang Ze sighed softly, "You must hope it's not him."
Su Li lowered her head, worried.
Her face was pale, and Dongfangze felt pity in his heart, and said softly: "Susu... you are tired, don't think too much, lie down and rest for a while."
Su Li was startled and lay back unconsciously. She was indeed very tired. She had almost exhausted all her inner energy in the battle. After she woke up, she spoke many words to him, but now she was exhausted.
Dongfangze fed her a Qingxin Pill and carefully covered her with a brocade quilt. Su Li quickly fell into a deep sleep and didn't wake up until the next morning. The early morning sun jumps out of the clouds and shines on the top of Juling Peak, making it as beautiful as a fairyland. The room was empty and quiet, and I didn't know when he had left. Su Li felt lonely in her heart for no reason. Touching her lips secretly, she seemed to be able to feel the hot temperature on his lips, and she was a little frightened. The aura of death and confusion that came instantly made her almost lose control. I thought my heart had calmed down, but I never expected that I would never forget my love.
Su Li secretly found her luck and found that the pain in her heart yesterday was much better. She thought it was the effect of the Qingxin Pill.
After lunch, my head felt a little heavy, and I just wanted to go to bed and take a nap.
. Suddenly I heard a voice saying sadly from outside the door: "I've met the Fourth Prince."
Su Li's heart moved. He went to check the identity of the assassin. He came so quickly. Could it be that the matter had already been revealed? Just as he was thinking about it, Yang Xiao strode into the room.
He felt refreshed and seemed to be in a good mood. He went straight to the soft couch and sat down. He asked with a smile: "Are you still sleeping in the broad daylight?"
Su Li smiled faintly and asked instead, "How is the investigation going?"
"The assassin's name is Zhang Jian, and he has been transferred to Ruifeng Camp for a year." A sharp cold light flashed in Yang Xiao's eyes, "He is a relatively capable subordinate of the emperor's uncle. Now that both human and material evidence are available, I must go to him. Ask clearly!"
Su Li's eyes darkened. She didn't know why, even though the clues were being investigated so smoothly, she felt an indescribable sense of ominousness. Although my uncle had been taking the lead in the war, he did have the motive to assassinate the envoy in order to fight for military power. But he has always been cautious and cautious in doing things. It stands to reason that he failed to poison Yang Xiao last time, and he will not do it rashly if there is a move this time...
What is the reason for this
"This case is of great importance and we need to ask clearly." She thought for a moment and found Yang Xiao looking straight at her and said with a smile: "Why are you so dazed? Why don't you go investigate the case quickly."
Yang Xiao blinked and smiled mischievously, "I'm waiting for you."
"wait for me?"
Yang Xiao came up to her and said with a smile: "Father has lifted the ban and allowed you to go down the mountain."
Su Li said in surprise: "Oh? Why?"
Seemingly satisfied with her expression, Yang Xiao said proudly: "Last night I went back to the palace to report the assassin to my father, and tried my best to persuade him to agree to let you help investigate the case. You are also the last person to see the assassin. I will tell you everything." Good words, he finally nodded.”
Su Li lowered her eyes lightly and said nothing. At present, the uncle is the most suspected in this case. Why did Emperor Bian agree to let her investigate together? Could it be that he still didn't give up and wanted to use this matter to find out her position.
Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, Yang Xiao felt a little uneasy and asked cautiously: "What's wrong? You don't want to go down the mountain, right? Or... don't want to help me?"
"No." Su Li shook his head and said, "There is no problem for me to investigate the case with you.
. On the contrary, you are not worried that I will show favoritism? "
"You won't. The Ah Li I know is definitely not like that." He immediately stopped his laughter, his face was serious, his eyes were sincere, and there was no perfunctory expression.
Su Li suddenly had a taste of life. Suddenly, he remembered that when she made a one-year appointment with him at Tianmen Inn, he trusted her without question. With a slight warmth in his heart, he sighed: "Thank you for believing in me."
Yang Xiao's eyes suddenly shone like jade. He pulled her up and said happily: "Without further delay, let's go down the mountain to find the emperor's uncle immediately!"
Prince Xiao's Mansion is located in the south of Biandu City.
The fourth prince Yang Xiao suddenly showed up uninvited, and the whole palace was in a panic. Butler Li stepped forward to greet him and said respectfully: "I have met His Highness the Fourth Prince."
Yang Xiao looked around and said in a deep voice, "Where is your uncle now?"
Butler Li was confused: "The prince is handling official business in the study and has ordered no one to disturb him..."
Yang Xiao said coldly without any doubt: "Lead the way!"
Butler Li hesitated for a moment, "Here...please go to the flower hall to have tea first. I will go and report to the prince."
"No need." Yang Xiao said coldly, "Go to the study!"
Butler Li had no choice but to lead the way. As soon as he arrived at the door of the study, Butler Li shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the fourth prince has arrived..." Before he could finish speaking, Yang Xiao had already strode into the study.
Yang Zhen, who was sitting behind the desk, felt a chill in his heart. He slowly raised his head and saw Yang Xiao standing in front of him with a stern expression, looking at him coldly. The woman behind him is actually Su Li! He was startled but remained calm. He narrowed his sharp eyes and waved his hand. Butler Li immediately left the study as if he had been granted amnesty.
"The fourth prince is visiting the palace in person, he is really a rare guest." Yang Zhen raised his eyebrows lightly.
Hearing the sarcasm in his words, Yang Xiao's expression turned cold. Before he could speak, Yang Zhen turned his eyes, looked at Su Li's expression carefully, and asked, "Ah Li, why are you here?"
Su Li stepped forward to greet him and replied softly: "The emperor ordered me to assist the fourth prince in investigating the assassination of the envoy."
Yang Zhen nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly asked: "Then why are you here?"
Yang Xiao sneered and slapped the tiger head bronze medal on the table, "Does the emperor recognize this thing?" "
On the back of the tiger's head, the words Ruifengying are clearly written.
.
Yang Zhen's eyes suddenly changed, he took the tiger head bronze medal in his hand and looked at it carefully, and asked sharply: "The tiger head order is the unique symbol of the Ruifeng camp soldiers, why is it in your hand?" His expression was stern, with a hint of questioning. meaning.
When Yang Xiao saw that he seemed completely unaware, his anger suddenly surged, but he suppressed it and said forcefully: "Yesterday, I found the escaped assassin in Huangpu Temple. It was from him that the tiger head token was found." It's just that my nephew is puzzled as to why the assassin carries a token related to you, the emperor's uncle..."
Yang Zhen glared at Yang Xiao and said disdainfully: "It seems you should ask the assassin this question!"
Yang Xiao suddenly smiled, but the smile was very cold, like a blade, "I wonder if the emperor still remembers that he personally promoted a person to join Ruifeng Camp a year ago. This person's name is Zhang Jian!"
"Zhang Jian?" Yang Zhen frowned and said, "He is indeed from Ruifeng Camp, but what does he have to do with the assassin?"
Yang Xiao said word by word: "The assassin is Zhang Jian!"
Yang Zhen was obviously stunned for a moment, and immediately went to see Su Li.
Su Li nodded, "The identity of the assassin has been confirmed to be Zhang Jian himself, there is no doubt about it. It was easy for him to hide in Huangpu Temple, so no one recognized him."
Yang Zhen's face suddenly turned livid, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What a Zhang Jian... Do you know who is behind the scenes?"
Yang Xiao sneered and said slowly, "Uncle Huang, why do you ask even though you already know?"
Yang Zhen suddenly changed his color, "What do you mean by this?"
"What does the emperor think?" Yang Xiao held the table with both hands and slowly approached Yang Zhen, his eyes becoming more and more sharp, "Zhang Jian is a small soldier in the Ruifeng camp. If no one instructs him, where does he have the courage to do this?" Assassin’s envoy?!"
Yang Zhen stood up as he slapped the case, his brows stained with anger, and he could hardly suppress the anger in his heart! Since becoming the king, he has held a large number of troops, and even the emperor has to be wary of him. When would anyone dare to be so presumptuous in front of him? !
"You said I was the king's instigator. What evidence is there
! "
Yang Xiao held up the tiger head token and immediately shouted without showing any signs of weakness: "There is evidence, and you still want to quibble!"
Yang Zhen retorted angrily: "There are tens of thousands of people in Ruifeng Camp. What can a Tiger Head Order prove? Where is Zhang Jian? Ask him to confront me!"
Yang Xiao said bitterly: "He is already dead." If the witness hadn't been dead, Yang Zhen would have been arrested and brought to justice today!
"Dead?" Yang Zhen was shocked. The answer seemed to be beyond his expectation. He suddenly felt something was wrong, and asked sharply: "How did you die?"
Su Li said solemnly: "After Zhang Jian's whereabouts were exposed, he fled all the way to the Big Dipper Formation and committed suicide by taking poison."
Yang Zhen laughed angrily and said sarcastically: "The fourth prince's investigation of the case is indeed extraordinary. With only a tiger head order and a mute corpse, he made random guesses and framed me! Is there anyone who will succeed the Bian royal family?" !"
The cynicism in his words was so obvious that Yang Xiao's face changed drastically. He couldn't bear it any longer and suddenly said, "You know very well whether you did it! Who in the court doesn't know that you have been arguing several times for peace talks?" Argued with your father. You were dissatisfied with the peace agreement signed with Sheng Kingdom, so you sent Zhang Jian to assassinate the envoy, hoping to cause trouble again!"
"That's nonsense!" Yang Zhen shouted loudly and rolled his sleeves angrily. He swept away the Four Treasures of the Study and the official memorials on the desk and scattered them all over the floor.
Su Li suddenly felt something was wrong. He saw their uncle and nephew looking at each other angrily. The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, and he was only a little bit drunk. She couldn't help but frown, and judging from Yang Xiao's intentions, she had obviously determined that her uncle was the mastermind behind the scenes. But my uncle's reaction was very shocked and he seemed to have no idea. Maybe... As she thought at this time, there was something fishy in it that was still unknown. But at this moment, Yang Xiao is filled with nostalgia and resentment, and he is preconceived and acting in an extreme manner. If this continues, not only will he be unable to find any clues, but the situation will only get worse!
Thinking of this, Su Li stepped forward, pulled Yang Xiao aside, and said softly: "Yang Xiao, we are here just to ask uncle about some things. Before there is conclusive evidence, we should be cautious in our words and deeds."
She turned her back to Yang Zhen, her expression calm and peaceful, and her eyes secretly reminded Yang Xiao not to be impulsive.
Yang Xiao's heart was shocked, and his anger was strangely calmed by her in an instant. Of course he understands that based on the current evidence, it is indeed difficult to prove that Yang Zhen is the mastermind behind this. So his face darkened and he stopped talking.
Su Li smiled slightly and said, "Go back to the Criminal Department first and see if you can find any other clues."
. "
Yang Xiao thought for a while, stood up and sneered: "Okay, for Ah Li's sake, I will give you a chance. When I find the evidence, it will be difficult for you to deny it!"
Yang Xiao strode away. The tense atmosphere in the study gradually relaxed. Yang Zhen's anger did not fade, and he shouted: "Ah Li also believes that this matter was done by his uncle?!"
Su Li smiled lightly, "Does uncle believe Ah Li?"
Yang Zhen immediately said: "Of course!"
Su Li fixedly looked at Yang Zhen and said softly: "Ah Li wants to ask his uncle the truth. Zhang Jian, was he sent by his uncle to assassinate the envoy?"
Those eyes are clear in black and white, clear and frank, like a clear mirror that can make all the hypocrisy and lies in the world invisible.
Yang Zhen was stunned, then his face changed, and he said coldly: "Why, you don't even believe in uncle?"
Su Li's heart moved and she said nothing.
Yang Zhen then said: "My uncle is very happy that you can come down the mountain, but he never expected that you would come with that kid to question your uncle! Have you forgotten that Yang Qian caused your uncle and your mother to lose their parents when they were young? The enemies who separated the siblings! They ruined your mother's life. Instead of avenging your mother, you helped them deal with your uncle? " His eyes were particularly gloomy, as if Su Li had betrayed him! His words could not hide his heartbreaking disappointment.
Su Li's heart tightened. Every time she mentioned her mother and concubine, she couldn't calm down. This person has passed away, and the truth of the past is unknown. She only knows that living well is the greatest comfort to her mother and concubine’s spirit in heaven! Her uncle still refused to let go of the old things. She could not figure out the reason for this for a while, so she could only say calmly: "Uncle, you have misunderstood. Ah Li just wants to find out the truth. Since this matter was not done by my uncle, can you please tell me more?" Tell me a little bit about Zhang Jian and Ruifeng Camp?"
Yang Zhen looked at her deeply and said nothing. There still seemed to be some doubt in his eyes.
Su Li sighed lowly: "My mother and concubine are no longer alive, and now my uncle is the closest person to Ah Li. Ah Li doesn't want to see his uncle being wronged, and hopes to find out the truth as soon as possible and find out the real culprit behind the scenes!"
Her expression was indifferent, but the sincerity in her words was unquestionable.
Perhaps it was the phrase "the dearest person" that touched him. Yang Zhen's expression gradually softened, and he called someone to serve tea. Then he slowly said: "Ruifeng Camp is indeed different from other military camps. Everyone in the camp is He is a master who was selected and trained by his uncle.
. "
He paused, as if he was deep in thought, and then said after a while: "Three years ago, during the military parade, my uncle accidentally discovered Zhang Jian. This man has some skills and is a promising talent. After sending someone to investigate, he learned that He was an orphan. He had good discipline after joining the army, so he was transferred to the Ruifeng Camp to train him carefully. Who knew that he was feeding a tiger? He turned out to be the assassin who killed the envoy of the Sheng Kingdom!" At the end of the sentence, he snorted coldly, His eyes were cold, his hands suddenly exerted force, and the tea cup shattered with a sound.
Su Li was startled, but remained calm. He was so angry that it didn't look like he was faking it at all. I just don’t know if Zhang Jian had already sneaked into Ruifeng Camp with a purpose, or if he had a different intention later
"If you let me know who planted this chess piece around me and dared to frame me, I will make him look good!" Yang Zhen said to himself, a hint of ferocity suddenly flashed across his handsome face.
Su Li was immediately frightened. Her uncle's words clearly confirmed that someone deliberately arranged for Zhang Jian to lurk around him. Who in the DPRK is so bold
She was about to ask again when suddenly there was a burst of chaotic footsteps outside the door, and someone shouted in panic: "Young Master! Run slowly, be careful where you step..."
But before the man finished speaking, there was a "bang" sound, as if something fell to the ground.
Yang Zhen immediately stood up, strode out, and asked in a deep voice, "Why are you so alarmed?"
Su Li followed and walked out, only to see a little boy falling on the stone steps in front of the study door.
When Prince Xiao was here, the servants were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were dripping with cold sweat. The leader of the nanny fell to the ground and begged for mercy, "My slave deserves to die! My slave deserves to die!" All the people kneeling in the yard did not dare to express their anger.
At this time, the little man lying on the stone steps raised his head and looked directly at Su Li.
Su Li's heart was moved. This child looked like three or four years old. He was pretty, round and cute, especially his pair of bright black eyes, which were astonishingly bright, as if they were ink jade.
Although there was a scratch on his forehead, he did not cry or fuss. He actually blinked and called out in a sweet voice: "Sister."
Su Li couldn't help but be surprised.
Everyone was stunned.
