Dongfang Zhuo's eyes changed, he stared at her and asked, "How do you know this?"
Su Li replied: "On the day I went to the Prince Regent's Palace with Prince Zhenning, I witnessed it with my own eyes in the mourning hall. The pain of a white-haired person sending a black-haired person was felt by everyone present. ... The princess did not believe that the princess was like an outsider. It was so unbearable, and she did not believe that the princess committed suicide because she had no face to face the world. She insisted on opening the coffin for an autopsy, but what she saw was that the princess was covered in bruises, and it was obvious that she had been forcibly violated... Princess The grief and anger were so overwhelming that he vomited blood and died miserably on the spot, right next to the princess's coffin!"
Her cold eyes were fixed on Dongfang Zhuo's gradually whitening face. She spoke every word with a calm voice, as if what she said had nothing to do with her, and said: "Both the princess and the princess will die with their eyes open!"
The hand under the colorful sleeves trembled violently. Dongfang Zhuo looked at the emotionless eyes opposite him, and suddenly felt difficulty breathing. His heart felt like it was tightly held by a pair of soft hands, and it hurt.
"Then...did she commit suicide?" When he heard himself asking her, there was a tremor in his voice that didn't sound like his.
Su Li didn't answer immediately. She raised her head and took a deep breath. Li Yao had stopped crying and lay quietly in her arms. It took a while before Su Li softly uttered three words: "I don't know." His tone was heavy. , like pressing down several mountains.
Li Su obviously died from a sword attack, but everyone said that she committed suicide by throwing herself into the river. This fact itself is very strange. Therefore, she must not let anyone know that Li Su did not commit suicide. Before the truth is found out, she will be wary of anyone.
Seeing Dongfang Zhuo lowering his eyes with a sad expression, Su Li suddenly smiled and said, "Has the prince ever thought that if you could have given the princess more love and trust at that time, maybe she would not have died?"
"Shut up!" As if he was stabbed in pain, Dongfang Zhuo raised his head suddenly and shouted angrily. His face suddenly turned as white as paper, and his chest was obviously rising and falling violently.
Su Li seemed to be indifferent and continued: "If the princess does not die, the princess will not die..."
"I told you to shut up, but you still dare to say
! "He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her throat, glaring at him with great anger, but the opposite emotions were surging crazily in his eyes.
Su Li raised her chin, her stubborn and indifferent eyes made Dongfang Zhuo feel inexplicably flustered, and the mocking look on her lips seemed to be asking him: "Dongfang Zhuo, what are you afraid of?" He was shocked in his heart, and he stared and inhaled. , suddenly stopped his hand, unable to conceal the panic and agitation in his heart, and walked away as if fleeing.
Su Li looked at his back coldly, a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said nothing.
Li Yao exclaimed in shock: "Your Majesty! Sister Su, you... Your Majesty is gone, how can we go back?"
Su Li didn't speak.
Li Yao said: "I'll go find the prince and come back!" After saying that, he chased out anxiously. Su Li stood motionless and looked outside. Dongfang Zhuo was furious and irritably picked up Li Yao and threw her on his subordinate's horse. She got up and ran away, and she suddenly felt relaxed.
Finally, she could be alone with her mother and no longer had to pretend to be calm.
Walk out of the worship temple and kneel down in front of the tomb. Su Li did not cry, but quietly recalled her mother's voice, appearance, and smile during her lifetime. Those were the things that gave her the courage to live. And this kneeling lasted until night.
The injuries on her body were becoming more and more painful, and her legs were already numb and no longer felt like hers. Su Li tried to get up, moved her legs, went to the back of the tomb and sat down, leaning against her mother's perch, and slowly curled up, as if she was snuggling in her mother's arms in the past.
The faint cold air emanating from the icy tomb invaded her skin bit by bit. In less than a moment, her whole body was ice cold. But Su Li didn't mind. Being able to accompany her mother without any scruples was a rare opportunity.
The tombkeeper turned off the lights early and went to sleep. The surroundings were very quiet. She raised her face and looked at the dark sky. A gust of cold wind blew gently by her ears, and the thin whimpering sound was like the indescribable cry from the heart of the human heart. She suddenly felt sleepy and was about to close her eyes when suddenly, a figure ran towards her from a distance, very fast but without making any sound.
Su Li was stunned for a moment, then immediately hid herself, raised her ears and watched the intruder warily.
It's so late, who could it be
In the darkness, I couldn't see anything clearly. I could only vaguely see a slim figure, probably a woman.
. As soon as the woman arrived in front of the tomb, she knelt down, her mood swings even felt by Su Li behind the scenes.
"Master, I'm sorry, Jingwan is late!"
It’s Aunt Jingwan! Su Li almost screamed and quickly covered her mouth. Just listen to Jingwan say again: "... You always say that the regent is very kind to you, but in his heart, after all, you are not as powerful as his rights and country! You don't blame him, but Jingwan has no way not to complain... If the prince hadn’t strongly advocated for the young lady to marry Dongfang Zhuo, none of this would have happened!”
Su Li had never seen Jingwan so excited. In her impression, Jingwan had the same characteristics as her mother, calm and cold, with few emotional ups and downs. Hearing such an excited tone made Su Li feel excited and unable to restrain herself.
Jingwan seemed to be trying her best to calm down the grief in her heart, and her voice was full of sadness: "Master was born noble, but he had a rough life. He was deceived and let down... Even when you were most desperate, you didn't fall. I know it's because of Miss. !Your biggest wish is to give the young lady a warm home so that she can grow up happily under the care of her parents who love her, so you chose the prince... But the result was counterproductive, and you couldn't bear it. All this happened quietly. Wandu knows. After all these years, only Jingwan understands the pain in your heart... "
Su Li was startled when she heard this. What was the pain in her mother's heart
Jingwan suddenly took out a dagger from her sleeve, pulled it out and swiped it hard on her left palm. The clear sword light caused bright red blood droplets to splash, and Su Li almost screamed in surprise.
"Jingwan has arranged everything and will no longer stay in the Regent's Mansion. You told Jingwan to investigate the matter. Even if Jingwan risks her life, she will definitely find out the truth! Today, Jingwan is in front of your soul. I swear by blood, please rest assured, Master, your two wishes, Jingwan, will be fulfilled for you even if I die!"
Two wishes... Su Li was startled again. One was the one asked by her mother before she died to investigate the truth about her unjust death. What was the other one
A loud bang, tapping deeply on the stone slab. Jingwan's sonorous tone and determined back made a deep impression on Su Li's heart that night. Tears welled up silently, unable to hold back anymore, and a touch of warmth slowly seeped into Su Li's heart, which was as cold as ice.
I don't know how long I sat like this, but it seemed that it was almost dawn. Su Li looked up at the ink-black sky, her eyes were dry and aching with tears.
In the distance, a misty white light lit up, and at this time, there were slight footsteps again.
