"Don't look at me, I won't bear it."
Time suddenly stopped in an instant, and everything in the world seemed to have lost its voice. A room full of lights flickered, still not as attractive as the man's eyes. It is clearly the most intimate appearance, ambiguous like a whisper of a lover, but in an instant, it all turns into a strong killing intent.
Xie Jing Xing lowered his eyes, the place under his palm was slightly warm, he could feel his eyelashes blinking slightly, like fluffy butterfly wings, he wanted to fly away, but he was caught and couldn't fly away.
"Gao Yang, you go out." Xie Jing Xing said.
Gao Yang frowned: "What do you mean?"
“You go out first.” Xie Jing Xing calmly said.
Gao Yang glanced at him and said nothing. He picked up what he had just wrapped and turned around and walked out. After the footsteps disappeared far away, Xie Jing Xing slowly released his hand.
He spread out his hands, and in the white palms, there seemed to be sparkling flashes under the lights.
Just before Shen Miao seemed to cry.
Xie Jing Xing said lazily, “It’s not death, why are you crying.” He wanted to say something, but suddenly stopped when he saw the look of the girl in front of him.
Shen Miao's brows are delicate and beautiful, even though there was a little bit of childishness on her face, now it was covered by the coldness on her face and nothing was left. Her eyes were as clear as water, but there was no trace of tears and sadness. Fang Cai was probably cheating, so she wasn't afraid at all. As Xie Jing Xing’s thoughts flickered, he saw that Shen Miao suddenly raised her elbow and hit him in front of his chest. This time it was both ruthless and accurate. Shaking slightly, she already grabbed Shen Miao's left arm. Shen Miao was so pulled by him that she almost bumped into Xie Jing Xing's arms. But she saw that she quickly took out something from her sleeve and stabbed Xie Jing Xing's arm without hesitation.
That hairpin was originally small and could not be seen without paying attention, Shen Miao’s movement was also vicious, she did not soften her hand and the hairpin sunk into the latter’s arm abruptly. Xie Jing Xing's eyes sank, his hand raised for a while, Shen Miao was thrown in front of the stone wall again.
Xie Jing Xing’s hand clicked on Shen Miao’s fragile neck, it seemed that with a little force, the neck could be easily broken. His voice was slightly deep, with a hint of anger that could not be detected, and said: "As expected from the general's mansion, sneak attack is a ten percent learning."
Shen Miao's eyes fell on Xie Jing Xing's arm, where half of the hairpin fell outside, and blood gradually flowed out, dyeing most of his sleeves red, and sticking tightly to his arm. Xie Jing Xing followed Shen Miao's gaze and smiled indifferently, "It doesn't matter even if it is poisonous, I will definitely kill you before that."
His eyes were extremely beautiful, and he was most intoxicated when he looked at people casually. If his half-smiling appearance fell into the eyes of the Ding capital girl, he would probably have to argue again. However, Shen Miao was in it and saw the indifference and coldness that were well hidden.
Who is Xie Jing Xing? He seems to be very complicated. The image of him in the Ding capital is that he is capable but cynical, and his unruly temperament is destined for him to be unable to be controlled by others, nor to show his strength in his official career. But at this moment Shen Miao had to doubt in her heart, that Xie Jing Xing in the eyes of the world was really Xie Jing Xing? He is indeed arrogant and fierce, but such a person, who hides so deeply, really has no intention of conspiracy
Xie Jing Xing seemed to be dissatisfied with her distraction, he deceived himself and approached, stared at her and said, "Shen Miao, I killed you today, but in the future, there will be no one to protect the Shen family."
As soon as Shen Miao's eyes moved, she saw Xie Jing Xing in front of her with a wicked smile, "Shen Yuan has returned to the capital and the second and third of the Shen family join forces, what is the chance of Shen Xin winning?" Coming from Shen Miao’s Achilles’ heel, “The Fu family is eyeing the Shen family, Shen Xin will have a hard time in the future, what you are asking for, what you are planning, will be ruined in my hands today, if you want to take revenge, you will have to wait for the rest of your life. ."
The more ruthless he was, the more unbelievably handsome his face became. As if he could clearly see the heart of the heart, his words were all directed at what Shen Miao was most worried about. When Shen Miao was reborn, all she wanted was for the Shen family to be safe and sound, and all she wanted was to seek revenge, and if her life was lost here, everything would come to an abrupt end. There was no sympathy or pity in Xie Jing Xing's eyes, he was truly indifferent, no matter what status she was, even if she was a royal princess today, as long as the relationship between Xie Jing Xing and Gao Yang was broken, there was absolutely no reason to retreat peacefully. This is the reason why she fought so hard just now, otherwise, with her cautious temperament, she would not use such a risky method until the last moment.
The smiling faces of Wan Yu and Fu Ming from the previous life suddenly passed in front of her eyes, Shen Miao widened her eyes, she did not even notice it, and two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks.
Too unwilling to die here, really, too unwilling.
Seeing her tears, Xie Jing Xing narrowed his eyes and looked at her inquiringly, he did not forget the ruthless hand that Shen Miao had just done. A woman who uses tears to win sympathy will not work with him.
However, Shen Miao just stared at her eyes and shed tears silently. There was no pitiful expression in her eyes, and she was crying silently, but it suddenly made people feel sad. It seems that long before this, he has experienced pain that ordinary people cannot understand, and he has reached the end of the road, and there is a great sadness and sadness.
Xie Jing Xing looked at her with a frown, and the hand that clung to Shen Miao’s throat gradually relaxed a little.
Shen Miao did not notice it, finally, Xie Jing Xing put down his hand and showed a little helplessness. He was tall and had a little girl against the corner, which made him feel a little weird, as if he was bullying children. Although Xie Jing Xing knew very well that the three words "little child" and Shen Miao were probably never compatible.
After a while, he finally pulled off the hairpin on his arm, pulling the hairpin off was also very painful, Xie Jing Xing frowned slightly and took the pulled hairpin in his hand to play with. Seeing Shen Miao staring at him, she felt inexplicably embarrassed. He said: "Don't cry, I won't kill you." After a pause, he added: "Scare you."
Shen Miao breathed a sigh of relief, she knew that Xie Jing Xing did not scare her. At that moment, the killing intent was fierce, and the other party was really motivated to kill. In the end, her heart softened, but she shed a few tears. As for what moved Xie Jing Xing, Shen Miao was not very clear.
Xie Jing Xing said, "How did you discover this place?"
"I once saw the picture of Liu Yuan's night banquet copied by the third uncle at home. I accidentally discovered this secret room when I was groping. I was curious, but I didn't expect to come in and meet you."
Xie Jing Xing looked at her with a smile but not a smile: "Shen Wan?"
Shen Miao lied without changing her face, "Yes."
“Little girl, I am not a brother of the Chen family, don’t use it on me to kill someone with a knife.” Xie Jing Xing said lazily. Shen Miao was also stubborn in her bones, and even at this level, she would give Shen Wan a sullen look.
“Today I didn’t see anything, I didn’t hear anything, if you don’t embarrass me, I will naturally not embarrass you.” Shen Miao looked at him, “Let the well water not make the river water.”
“You can’t embarrass me either.” Xie Jing Xing’s reckless tone made his teeth itch with hatred, he said, “I will spare your life today, if this matter leaks a little bit, your Shen family can’t blame me for bad luck.”
Shen Miao answered quickly, "I will not leak it out."
Xie Jing Xing was extremely satisfied with her attitude of accepting it as soon as she saw it, he was silent for a while and suddenly asked, "Shen Miao, do you have any grudges with the Fu family?"
He said "Fu Family" instead of "Tian Family", and the meaning in his words is somewhat intriguing. Shen Miao turned her head to look at him, her heart moved slightly, but said indifferently, "Little Marquis can do whatever he thinks."
Xie Jing Xing raised his eyebrows, “As expected.” He glanced at Shen Miao, “Since this matter is over, you should leave first, stay here for too long and attract others, I cannot save you.”
Shen Miao didn't say a word, she turned around and left. Today's meeting with Xie Jing Xing made her understand something in a trance. At least this little Marquis of the Marquis of Lin'an is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Such people cannot be used, nor can they be offended. If Xie Jing Xing's enemy was also the Ming Qi royal family, she would naturally end up doing well, if not, she must not try to attack him.
Shen Miaofang took two steps, Xie Jing Xing followed, he had long legs, he quickly caught up with Shen Miao and threw her a small medicine bottle: "Don't say I bullied you and cried again." Then he strode forward, Shen Miao left first.
Under the dim light of Huo Zhezi, Shen Miao suddenly had a look of embarrassment, just now she was also making a dangerous move. In her previous life, after she returned from Qin State, when she was fighting for favor with Madam Mei, her temper was extremely tough, and she had heard other beauties offer advice: "The majesty is dignified and solemn all day long, even though she is a mother in the world, your majesty may not like it. Look. Mrs. Mei is gentle and careless, and she is even more coquettish and foolish. It is said that children who can cry have candy to eat, and love in this world is also a truth. Men are all sympathetic and cherishing jade, and the daughter's home is like water."
However, she sneered at this statement at the beginning, thinking that such a move was not on the table, how could the dignified empress be confused with the flattering methods of those women. But just now under Xie Jing Xing's killing intent, she suddenly remembered what the beautiful woman said, "Children who can cry have candy".
Now that she is still a cardamom girl, she is also innocent and immature when she wants to be born again, and she doesn't have the queen's phoenix robe. Shen Miao never dreamed that a tough-natured woman would cry “pear blossoms bring rain” to a man, but the ending surprised her, that Xie Jing Xing’s fierce and rebellious temper would actually let her go.
But this time the confrontation, after all, she used a very dishonorable method.
After leaving the secret room, it was unknown where Xie Jing Xing and Gao Yang had left, but there was actually no one in the tea room. She walked out of the tea room, Mo Qing was still guarding outside, Shen Miao asked him, "Can someone come out from inside just now?"
"People?" Mo Qing was stunned: "Isn't there only Miss inside? Miss met someone else inside?"
“No.” Shen Miao smiled slightly, and said, “Just ask casually.” But in her heart, she thought highly of Xie Jing Xing’s ability.
“Stayed for a long time, why did the eldest brother not come, let’s find the eldest brother first.” Shen Miao said.
Mo Qing was a little confused and did not know why Shen Miao changed her mind after a while, and just said clearly that she would wait for Shen Qiu in the tea room, but now it is not the case. But naturally he would not refute Shen Miao's point of view, especially for such trivial matters, he silently answered and followed Shen Miao to the outside.
When Shen Miao left, she looked back at the closed door of the tea room, not knowing if Xie Jing Xing and Gao Yang were still here. She came here for that "thing" today, who would have known that the "thing" actually fell into Xie Jing Xing's hands. Shen Miao couldn't figure it out for a while, according to the traces of the previous life, Xie Jing Xing should not have discovered the secret room at this time, could it be that something has changed in this life, even Xie Jing Xing's fate has changed? Or, her short and tragic life in the previous life, there are some truths that have been ignored.
This question was not resolved until after seeing Shen Qiu and returning to the Shen residence in the evening. On the other hand, Shen Qiu was in a daze after seeing Shen Miao coming out of the Prince's Mansion, and thought that Shen Miao was frightened by the blood donation in the Prince's Mansion. What's up with that ugly place. Shen Qiu was really wronged, but Shen Miao didn't realize it.
On the other side, there were also people who were fighting for Xie Jing Xing.
"That girl is too ruthless." Gao Yang stared at the scar in front of him in a stunned manner.
Xie Jing Xing took off his outer robe and only wore a wide middle jacket. The collar of the middle coat was loose, revealing half of his sturdy and straight body, the sleeves were rolled in half, and on the exposed arms, the scars pierced by half of the hairpin could be seen deep into the bone. Xie Jing Xing let Gao Yang give him medicine while playing with the hairpin in his hand.
The hairpin was an ordinary plain silver hairpin with simple wavy patterns on the top. However, the pointed end of the hairpin was so sharpened that it was comparable to a silver needle used as a hidden weapon, and the pointed end was bent. Like a barb. If such a hairpin poked into a person's body, it would definitely be able to tear off a large piece of flesh.
For example, Xie Jing Xing had a wound on his arm.
"Shen Xin's family is beautiful, why is that girl so vicious? It doesn't look like Shen Xin's daughter, she's not holding the wrong child." Gao Yang was still very surprised: "You don't think she was soft when she attacked. , this is all in the flesh." He evenly sprinkled the medicinal powder on the wound, Xie Jing Xing frowned and took a deep breath.
"I have to endure the pain." Gao Yang said angrily, "Xie San, I have followed you for so many years, and I have never seen a time when you have Lianxiang Xiyu. What are you doing today, she broke through such a big thing, Even hurting you, you just let her go. I said," Gao Yang stroked his chin: "Did you really like her? She's still a little girl, you don't need anything, you're crazy."
Xie Jing Xing said impatiently, “Alright, bullying a little girl, I’m not that shameless.”
“It’s as if you never bullied a little girl before.” Gao Yang sneered, “I really don’t understand more and more what you are thinking.” He carefully wrapped the bandage around Xie Jing Xing’s arm and sighed after wrapping it up. Tone, "Now that the things are in hand, what's next?"
"Look again." Xie Jing Xing said.
“The Fu family will know sooner or later.” Gao Yang frowned, “Actually, what I find most strange is how Shen Miao knew about the secret room, if she was from the Fu family, you would have exposed it.”
“She has a grudge with the Fu family.” Xie Jing Xing said lazily, “I wish I could use my hands to kill people. As for how to find it, it’s a coincidence.” There was a flash of sharpness in his eyes, Shen Miao said that she did not know the secret room by accident, and this reason is fundamental. He doesn't believe it. Shen Miao is very purposeful in her actions, which can be seen from her dealings with Shen Qing and Prince Yu. What seems to be of little use, in the end, can play an unexpected role. Xie Jing Xing even had a guess that Shen Miao started to deal with Prince Yu maybe because of the “things” in his hands.
But how did she know? Even he and Gao Yang had just learned about it, and it took a lot of energy. Shen Miao was only a boudoir daughter and there were many inconvenient places to investigate the news, but she was able to know the secrets. Her secrets are no less than others.
"Anyway, be careful." Gao Yang stood up, picked up the remaining medicine and bandages, and walked out of the house: "Besides, now that she has discovered my identity, she doesn't know what kind of changes will happen in the future. ."
Xie Jing Xing stayed in the room alone, he pointed the hairpin in his hand at the flames dancing in the light, and looked at it thoughtfully. After a while, the secret room appeared in his mind, the girl's eyes widened and tears silently appeared.
He was not someone who loved fragrance and jade, nor did he have other thoughts towards Shen Miao, but at that moment, there was an inexplicable feeling of unbearableness. This unbearable emotion finally broke his usual calm approach, but now that I think about it, I regret it a little. The wound on the arm after the medicine was a little numb and even more painful. When the other party started, he was never soft at all. If he didn't hide quickly, the hairpin might fall on his face.
In fact, the tears that Shen Miao shed might just be a means. Xie Jing Xing knew very well that that young girl was extremely cunning, her mind was sensitive and intelligent, and the means she used unexpectedly had amazing abilities. Suddenly showing weakness, probably also want to ask for life.
Xie Jing Xing spread out his hand, the silver hairpin shimmered in the palm of his hand, but it reminded people of the fluffy feeling in the palm of his hand when he covered a pair of eyes, like a flying butterfly, about to dance in the palm of his hand, that is, that The fragility for a moment made something strange in his heart, which should not belong to his sympathy.
“Little poisonous woman,” Xie Jing Xing suddenly smiled, under the lights, the handsome young man’s brows were dazzling, the smile on the corner of his lips was playful, and he muttered, “You shouldn’t be soft-hearted.”
…
The East Courtyard of Shen Mansion is in full bloom at this moment.
Inside the Rongjing Hall, Mrs. Shen looked gloomy, looked at Shen Gui and said, "So, girl Qing can't come out?"
Shen Gui shook his head: "Prince Yu's mansion was destroyed overnight, and Qing'er is the only one left. No matter how you do it, you can't escape the relationship, and the case has to be tried again."
"Apart from such a big thing, I don't know if His Majesty will blame us." The old lady Shen said worriedly: "What happened to that girl, Qing'er, this matter really has nothing to do with her?" , was actually very suspicious of Shen Qing.
Ren Wanyun exploded when she heard the words, she rushed to the front of the old lady Shen and knelt down, startling the old lady Shen, Ren Wanyun cried and said, "Old lady, you watched Qinger grow up, what is she like? You don't know your temperament, how could you do such a thing. Besides, what skills does Qing'er have to have a relationship with such a powerful person. It is clear that Prince Yu's mansion has formed an enemy, but Qing'er was just lucky and picked up one. Life, we have already felt sorry for her, and we must not leave her alone."
Ren Wanyun and Old Shen Furen have been mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for so many years, and she has a clear understanding of Old Shen Furen's temperament. Even if he had three or two feelings for Shen Qing, when it was time to protect himself, he would abandon Shen Qing without hesitation. Ren Wanyun sometimes feels that Shen Gui is such a conscienceless person, but it is because of the blood of Old Shen Furen in his bones, so his selfish temperament is exactly the same.
After listening to Ren Wanyun's words, Old Shen Furen became even more angry and said, "Eldest daughter-in-law, what you said is strange. How are we sorry girl Qing? I forced her to have an affair with Prince Yu, and I forced her to be shameless. Pregnant? These rules, I didn't teach her at all!"
Old Madam Shen was originally a singer, and the people who came out of the market were naturally not very good at what she said. Even if Ren Wanyun was savage in her bones, she would be turned upside down by such merciless words as Old Madam Shen, she said: " Mother! How can you say so clearly, she is your granddaughter!"
Chen Rouqiu persuaded: "Second sister-in-law, don't say a word, mother is also worried that Qing'er will be angry, everyone knows that among the three daughters, mother's favorite is sister Qing."
She used to be the girl she liked the most, but now she can abandon her without hesitation. Old Madam Shen's selfish character is really despised. Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan both showed contempt, but they didn't say a word, Quan should be watching the fun.
Shen Yuan glanced at Chen Rouqiu, and his glance was also very gloomy, which made Chen Rouqiu pause for a moment and felt a little apprehensive. Shen Yuan walked to Ren Wanyun and helped her up, looked at Old Shen Furen and said, "Grandma, don't worry, things are not too bad, now my sister is only suspected and has not yet been convicted. My sister has nothing to do with this matter, I want to come here for a while. The truth will come to light in the day. I will seriously investigate this matter, and I will not let my sister be innocently wronged."
When Old Madam Shen heard the words, her eyes softened. Among her children and grandchildren, the youngest grandson Shen Yuanbai was the one she liked the most, but the one she was most proud of was Shen Yuan, who was very capable at such a young age. Besides, Shen Yuan would like to please her again, so he nodded and said, "If that's the case, go check it out. If the girl is innocent, I naturally don't want her to be wronged." After a pause, Looking at Ren Wanyun again, she said with a sneer, "But I think your mother is stunned. If you are really not clear-headed, don't go out, stay in the mansion, and don't cause me any trouble."
Ren Wan Yun was both angry and hated, her face flushed red, and she didn't know when, Old Shen Furen became more and more dissatisfied with her, and now she even wantonly humiliated her in front of all her children. Even Chen Rou Qiu could look at her with mocking eyes.
It wasn't until she was helped back to Caiyun Garden by Shen Yuan that Ren Wanyun was relieved. She grabbed Shen Yuan's arm and said, "Yuan'er, think of a way to save your sister. How could Qing'er have such great ability, how could she be a murderer!"
"Mother, don't worry." Shen Yuan comforted her: "Since my sister has been wronged, I am not afraid of being investigated. Now I am suspected because the real murderer has not yet been revealed. In this case, find out the real murderer, sister. The grievances will be resolved naturally.”
When Ren Wanyun heard the words, it was as if she had found a life-saving straw, and her eyes suddenly became bright again. She asked happily, "When will the murderer be found? How long will your sister be imprisoned? When will you find the murderer?"
Shen Yuan stared at Ren Wanyun, Ren Wanyun's complexion was very haggard, she hadn't worn makeup for a long time, her skin looked old and dull, her hair was even more disheveled, and there was no place for her meticulous and delicate appearance. She has always been a person who pays attention to appearance and wealth, but now she is so sloppy, it seems like a different person.
And the cause of all this is just because of a cardamom girl who used to be called a straw bag.
Shen Yuan felt a headache in his heart. He prided himself on being smart and sensitive, but he didn't expect that when he returned to Beijing this time, he would be given such a big mess as soon as he returned to the manor. Ren Wanyun's status in the mansion plummeted, Shen Qing was only pregnant before marriage, and now he was involved in the massacre of Prince Yu's mansion.
For some unknown reason, Shen Yuan suddenly remembered the day when Shen Qing got married, when he talked to Shen Miao, Shen Miao said at that time, "No one can tell what happens in the world, people will have good or bad luck, it is uncertain, and there will be no road ahead."
Now, there is really no way in front of Shen Qing, at least if there is a way, the road is extremely difficult. She was the only survivor left in the entire Prince's Mansion. At this point, Shen Yuan could see clearly that the person who started the attack left Shen Qing alone, not because of soft-heartedness or sympathy. This left a life, but for Shen Qing, it was a reminder.
At least, being implicated in the massacre of the family and dying on the charge of murder, the things you get are very different.
The attacker clearly deliberately put Shen Qing into such a difficult situation, but Shen Qing is just a little girl, who would be so cruel to a little girl. Is it Shen Miao? How could Shen Miao drive so many killers to kill the people in Prince Yu's residence for her. Such people, I am afraid it is difficult to do.
Shen Yuan's eyes were heavy, no matter whether the person behind was Shen Miao or not, he would investigate this matter to the end. Since that person was targeting Shen Qing, it was not necessarily that he was not targeting the second room of the Shen family. Although Shen Qing was in a difficult prospect right now, he was not at the point where he was desperate. He was bound to find out who was behind it, and then return it a thousand times over.
Shen Yuan thought like this, but what he did not expect was that, just like Shen Miao's words, no one can accurately say anything in the world. People have bad luck and good fortune, and there may be no road ahead.
His way, on the second day, was blocked as a dead end.
