Chapter 1338 644 Truth
Two days later, the embarrassed Madam Lu was brought to Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue by Wang Chaoyuan and a guard, and she knelt on the ground with a plop.
She lost a lot of weight because she was biting her tongue and could only use a tube to feed her. There was a deep shadow right now. Obviously, these days should be tossing and turning day and night.
Xiao Yi's gaze stopped on her for a moment, then made a gesture, and the guard took off the gauze ball that was stuffed in the mouth of Lu Ma.
Looking at the turbid old eyes of Lu Momo, Xiao Yi's deep eyes glowed with a dark and stern light, and there was a smile that was not a smile on the corner of his mouth. But Nangong Yue could already feel the gloom in his heart from his straight back, so she said lightly, "Mother Lu, believe it or not, even if you bite your tongue a hundred times, I will take it back for you?"
Wang Chaoyuan stared at Madam Lu icyly. Where is the need for Concubine Lao Shizi to take action, they will never give this Madam Lu a chance to bite her tongue!
"Slave... slaves don't dare." Madam Lu said inarticulately.
She respectfully kowtowed to Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue: "Slave... I've seen... Shizi, Shizifei."
"Mother Lu, you are no longer the servant of the palace." Xiao Yiman casually brushed his sleeves and said, "I can't stand it."
Madam Lu's face froze for a moment, and she said hurriedly, "This servant has been honored by... the first princess... kindness, I dare not forget it."
The smile on the corner of Xiao Yi's mouth deepened, but it was icy cold.
Madam Lu's mellow body trembled violently, and she kowtowed heavily: "Master Shi... why did you say this?! This slave and maid is wronged!... Please ask Shi Ye to see it clearly!" After speaking, she kowtowed again. , again and again, and after a few kowtows, his forehead turned blue, looking pitiful.
Xiao Yi raised his brows, "If you are innocent and have a clear conscience, why would you bite your tongue and commit suicide?"
"Master Shizi!" Madam Lu raised her bruised face, and said with tears in her eyes, "This servant is... misunderstood, thinking that she was kidnapped by... gangsters..."
It seems that this Madam Lu is not going to die without seeing the Yellow River, and her mouth is stubborn. A cold light flashed in Nangong Yue's eyes, and she saw a silver light grazed by the neck of Lu Ma's neck, and then nailed it to the threshold with a bang.
And there was a blood line on Lu's neck, and in the next instant, bright red blood overflowed from the wound and slid down her loose skin...
Madam Lu only felt a chill in her neck, and she couldn't move her body. She stared blankly at Xiao Yi in front of her. The other side's peach blossom eyes were shining brightly. She played with a flying knife in her hand with a smile, and the silver blade was displayed. With her embarrassed appearance, like a mad woman...
Just now, as long as the blade of the flying knife was a little deeper, there would be more than this small wound on his neck.
She suddenly realized that although the appearance of the other party looked like a playful second-generation ancestor, just like the more venomous snake's body surface, the more gorgeous the patterns, Xiao Yi was a feared killer on the battlefield!
Madam Lu gritted her teeth and said, "I will be a slave for one day, a slave for life, Shizi... If you have to kill the slaves, there is no slave..."
Her words were interrupted again, and another silver sword light flashed, and then there was a bloodstain on the other side of her neck.
"World……"
This time, she only spit out a word, and a third blood line appeared on her neck...
Madam Lu only felt that the cold hairs on the back of her neck stood up. She was not afraid of death, so she could resolutely bite her tongue and commit suicide, but she didn't think that she was not as afraid of death as she thought. so scary...
Suddenly, Xiao Yi's action of playing with the knife stopped, causing Madam Lu's pupils to shrink reflexively.
But Xiao Yi's flying knife didn't shoot, he looked straight at her, his eyes were so sharp that it seemed to penetrate her heart, and his voice was even colder: "I don't want to hear another nonsense, you'd better think about it before answering! How innocent, why did you quietly dump the dregs under a magnolia tree in the back garden?! Do you want this prince to call Banxia to confront you, and then bring those dregs?!"
Pinellia? ! Madam Lu's eyes narrowed, vaguely remembering that there was a third-class maid named Banxia in the yard of the former concubine, who was sold by herself because of a crime... Now that I think about it carefully, this Pinellia was sold. The time is really a bit delicate, don't you think...
Madam Lu almost collapsed, and her back was mostly wet.
She gritted her teeth, knelt down on the ground humbly, and said with difficulty: "The slave-maid pleads guilty! It was the slave-maid who was bribed and received money, so she used her hands and feet in the medicine of the former concubine, and wanted to make the former concubine one corpse and two corpses. Life……"
Xiao Yi was noncommittal, exuding an icy aura from his whole body, and said with a half-smile, "Oh? It turned out to be bought by someone..."
Madam Lu lowered her head, her eyes were rolling, and her mouth moved slightly, but before she could say anything, she heard a clear female voice sounding in front of her, not hurriedly—
"Mother Lu, sometimes, I have to admire the patience of you Baiyue people!"
Nangong Yue's understatement was as if a thunderstorm had struck the ground, causing Madam Lu's ears to rumble.
Madam Lu's eyes widened, and her face showed a shock that could not be concealed. Then, she lowered her eyes and said in a puzzled tone: "Prince Shizi, slave maid... This slave maid is the son of the An family, how could she be from Baiyue? Woolen cloth……"
Nangong Yue slowly curled the corners of her lips and looked at her with a half-smile.
In fact, this is just a guess between her and Xiao Yi.
Judging from the clues they have obtained so far, the rise of the An family is likely to be supported by Baiyue, and the process of Lu Ma's becoming the first queen's wet nurse is quite suspicious.
This made Nangong Yue guess that Madam Lu was from Baiyue at all, and was one of the spies who penetrated into the major families in southern Xinjiang through the settlement of Baiyue!
Madam Lu did a good job of covering it up, but her expression at that moment still missed the point.
Nangong Yue flicked her sleeves, changed her words, and asked, "Mother Lu, why are you in Zhangnan?"
Zhangnan is a barren land located on the southwestern border of Southern Xinjiang. It is a place where prisoners are exiled and served to open up wasteland in southern Xinjiang. It is desolate and difficult. Except for the native people, there are basically only three types of people here at most, the border guards. , exiled prisoners and relatives of prisoners. Last year, in order to open up wasteland and build a border town, Xiao Yi directly ordered that the prisoners in the prison who were not up to the standard of exile were also distributed.
Madam Lu was slightly startled. She thought that Nangong Yue would continue to press herself with the question just now, but she did not expect to ask Zhang Nan suddenly.
Concubine Shizi even knew the secret that she had kept for decades. Could it be that even that incident...
As soon as she thought about it, Nangong Yue's next sentence completely broke her heart defense——
"I guess you should go to meet your grandson secretly."
In the beginning, Zhu Xing sent a few dark guards to visit Huaiquan Town, the hometown of Madam Lu's man, but what they got was an epidemic more than ten years ago, and the whole town was half empty. The dark guards found I visited the surviving neighbors of Mama Lu, and learned that Mama Lu's family, except for her and a grandson who was born, all died of the epidemic.
The thread is interrupted.
However, the dark guard did not give up, and continued to investigate around Huai'an Town. Finally, he met an elderly teacher in a nunnery not far from Huai'an Town, and learned a big secret from her.
At that time, Nangong Yue was seriously ill, and Xiao Yi had just returned. Hearing the news, he ordered the dark guard to go to Zhangnan. Sure enough, he found Madam Lu, who worked as a long-term worker in the barracks of the border guards and provided meals for the prisoners.
Madam Lu shuddered and said stiffly, "Prince Concubine, what grandson does this servant have? More than ten years ago, the whole family died in a plague, leaving only the servants and servants alone..."
Nangong Yue interrupted the other party with a smile: "Mother, don't deny it so quickly, your grandson's name is Ding Cong, and he is eighteen years old this year. He is currently doing hard labor in Zhangnan, by the way, I remember he has other A name, seems to be the surname Ye, called..."
With Nangong Yue's remarks, Madam Lu's face became whiter and paler, her body trembled like chaff, her mouth was slightly open, like a fish out of water, every breath became so difficult.
There was only one thought in her mind: Concubine Shizi really knew! ?
"... Ye Yinming."
These three words exploded in Madam Lu's mind like a bolt from the blue, making her almost collapse to the ground.
Nangong Yue said while smiling, smiling so brightly, but in Madam Lu's eyes, the beautiful woman in front of her looked like an evil spirit crawling out of hell.
"No!" Madam Lu finally couldn't hold back her words, her face lost the last trace of blood, and she almost roared, "Prince Concubine, stop talking!"
At this moment, she did not dare to have the slightest chance.
Concubine Shizi knew that she was from Baiyue, that her grandson was still alive, and even threatened her with her grandson's life!
They know everything!
The grandson is her only relative, she has been looking for him for 18 years, she can't just watch him die!
Thinking about it, Madam Lu was completely paralyzed, and she lost her energy in an instant.
She had long known that she would inevitably die, but she didn't want to know that her real life was already in someone's hands.
At that time, after the previous princess died of "illness", she was done and asked to leave the house. But because she already had a husband and a son in Dayu, she didn't return to Baiyue. After receiving the order to continue hiding, the family went to Huaiquan Town.
Who would have known that within a year of good times, an epidemic suddenly broke out in Huaiquan Town.
Her husband, son, and daughter-in-law died, and she was the only one who escaped with her two-month-old grandson, who was waiting to be fed. On the way to escape, she accidentally stayed in a nunnery, but found that she also had symptoms of fever. She knew best that the epidemic started from fever, and her heart sank all of a sudden...
It doesn't matter if she dies, what should her grandson do?
In desperation, she turned her attention to a family who also stayed in the nunnery. From the conversation of the other party, she probably learned that it was an official family with the surname Ye, and the wet nurse was preparing to return to the capital with the two-month-old young master.
It will take at least half a month for this trip to Wangdu, and a child should be able to fool around every day!
Thinking of this, Madam Lu's heart was ruthless, and she killed the young master of the Ye family secretly at night...
The nurse woke up in the middle of the night and found that the young master was gone. She thought she had not taken good care of herself and was at a loss. When she was at a loss, Mother Lu gave her grandson "kindly" to the nurse. The only way to get into trouble is to accept the "kindness" of Madam Lu.
The wet nurse took her grandson and continued on the road, while Lu Ma Ma was left alone to recuperate. She really caught the epidemic. It was a month after she recovered, and she hurried to Wangdu to find the family surnamed Ye, wanting to get her grandson back, but she didn't want that Lord Ye to be gone.
After several inquiries, Lu Momo only learned that the original Lord Ye was accused of embezzlement and bribery, and the whole family was escorted back to the capital. Just in case, the Ye family could leave a seedling, and it would take less than two months. The big young master entrusts it to the wet nurse.
Fortunately, the luck of the Ye family was not too bad. At that time, Mr. Ye, the old grandfather Ye, was only dismissed from his post, so the family went back to their hometown. Madam Lu finally found out where the hometown of the Ye family was. On the way back to her hometown, she was seriously ill and died. Mrs. Ye Tai simply sold her ancestral house and did not go back...
Since then, Madam Lu has lost the whereabouts of her grandson Ding Cong, but Madam Lu has not given up. She has been searching for so many years, and it was not until more than half a year ago that she learned that her grandson was studying in an academy in Jingzhou, and she said He came to Southern Xinjiang in order to raise funds for the exam.
However, when she arrived in Luoyue City, she found out that her grandson had already been disqualified from fame and was sent to Zhangnan to serve in hard labor.
She worked so hard to find her grandson. She thought that this secret should be known only to her, but she didn't expect...
Madam Lu closed her eyes and took a few quick breaths, feeling like she heard the sound of something shattering in her ears.
She took a deep breath and opened her eyes with despair in her eyes.
"Concubine Shi... You are right, I... I am indeed from Baiyue." She said intermittently, so laborious, she almost exhausted all her strength.
In any case, she must inevitably die, and only hope that her only grandson can have a way to live...
Wang Chaoyuan's pupils shrank abruptly when he heard the confession from Mama Lu.
The former wangfei's wet nurse turned out to be a spy for Baiyue. She secretly sneaked into Fangfu more than 30 years ago. Baiyue is really insidious and cunning...
In this way, the four major families in the southern border, no, it should be said that there may be Baiyue spies lurking in all the houses in the southern border... Thinking of this, Wang Chaoyuan is almost a little frightened.
Nangong Yue's face was indifferent, and she could only say that Skynet was splendid and sparse.
Madam Lu would never have imagined that the wet nurse who was the young son of the Ye family, because of remorse, came to the vicinity of Huai'an Town, and became a nun in the temple where the young son of the Ye family died in vain, praying for him day and night. The dark guard not only learned what happened in the past from her mouth, but also learned that Madam Lu had returned to the southern border in order to find her grandson.
Nangong Yue was stunned when she learned from Xiao Yi's mouth that Ye Yinming was actually the grandson of Madam Lu. However, looking back and thinking about it, it was obvious that Ye Yinming she knew had average knowledge and bad conduct. , but he was named the champion at a young age in the last life, perhaps because Lu Ma found him, or because Baiyue people supported him behind him.
And Ye Yinming impeached Xiao Yi, who was already in control of Southern Xinjiang at that time, for killing his father and his younger brother several times in the courtroom, and wrote a series of essays, provoking literati and writers to punish Xiao Yi, probably not to avenge his sister. But for unspeakable reasons...
The truth of all this is now unknown.
Madam Lu gritted her teeth and said with a deadly expression: "I was ordered to go up to the peak and secretly replaced the An family's family to give birth to a child. When the An family chose a nurse, I was selected... Then I was sent to Fangfu. , to be the wet nurse of the previous princess." This has been done for more than ten years.
Baiyue has sent out so many spies, and some spies may be ordinary people in their entire lives, and they will live an ordinary life until they reach the peak. Of course, Mama Lu hopes that she can do the same.
She spent ten years in Fang Mansion smoothly and smoothly. When she thought that she might be able to live her life peacefully and happily, the former princess was actually engaged to the prince of Zhennan at that time, that is, the current king of Zhennan. .
The moment the marriage was decided, Madam Lu knew that her illusion was shattered.
Since then, Madam Lu has been terrified every day. Others see her as the first person beside the former princess, envious, jealous, and flattering... But only she knows that she is walking on a narrow single-plank bridge. The bottomless abyss, as long as she is not careful, she will die without a place to be buried!
Sure enough, his smooth life finally came to an end on that day——
"Nineteen years ago, I... I received an instruction from Shangfeng," the instruction after more than ten years, "let me put medicine in the decoction of the former princess."
The former concubine had always trusted her, and she did not take any precautions at all. In the end, the former concubine had a difficult labor and had a bloody collapse...
However, the prince was born safely.
At that time, she didn't know if she was going to do anything to the crying baby, but in the end she didn't get any new instructions until Lifu.
Thinking of this, Madam Lu's eyelids trembled, her expression a little dark and complicated.
The room was silent for another moment, Xiao Yi's fists were tightly clenched together, even if he didn't speak, he could feel a storm brewing in his body...
At this time, Nangong Yue asked again, "Mother Lu, nineteen years ago, because the two wet nurses prepared by the Fang residence for the concubine developed rashes, you were temporarily sent to the Fang residence by the An family. Why would a nurse suddenly develop a rash?"
Baiyue took so much trouble, then every link in the whole thing must have been designed in advance, there is no coincidence at all!
Madam Lu was stunned, then shook her head honestly and replied, "This... I don't know."
After all, she is just one of the hundreds of thousands of spies, and she is as humble as an ant. If she hadn't become the wet nurse of the previous queen, I am afraid her fate would be completely different now!
Thinking, Mother Lu's expression was tangled and complicated, and her heart was obscure.
Somewhere in the world, there may still be a wonderful power called destiny, which has led him step by step to where he is today, and the son of the former concubine is destined to avenge his mother.
Skynet is plentiful, sparse but not leaking.
In the end no one can escape...
Madam Lu was taken down by Wang Chaoyuan and the others.
Even after she left, the atmosphere in the hall was still uncomfortable. Nangong Yue stood up, smiled at Xiao Yi, and stretched out her hand...
Xiao Yi stared at her warm smile, and also got up and took her hand. The two of them walked out of the hall holding hands without hesitation, and went to Qiwu Garden together. Xiao Yi was silent along the way.
When the two walked near the small garden, Xiao Yi couldn't help but slow down and looked in the direction of the small garden.
"Ayi, how about we take a walk in the small garden?" Nangong Yue waved the hands of the two and suggested.
Xiao Yi responded, and the two went to the small garden.
At this time, it's only time, the golden sunshine is warm, shining over the garden full of purple and red, quite a bit of a feeling of infinite spring...
A few colorful butterflies were dancing and playing among the flowers, Xiao Yi suddenly burst out laughing, Nangong Yue looked at his handsome face that turned to sunny, and raised his right eyebrow slightly.
Xiao Yi said with a smile: "Stinky girl, I miss home."
For some reason, when he saw those colorful butterflies flying among the flowers just now, he inexplicably thought of the way the two stupid cats at home were foolishly fluttering butterflies in the garden of the palace. He had stayed in the capital for so many years before, but he never missed Zhennan Wangfu...
For him, the palace at that time was not his home.
But it's different now. Since his concubine and his stinky girl came, Bixiaotang has become his real home. They will have children there in the future, and they will grow old together.
"The day after tomorrow, shall we go home?" Xiao Yi shook her hand and said coquettishly.
"Um."
Nangong Yue nodded vigorously, but she didn't know why Xiao Yi suddenly thought about it again.
However, since she knew Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi was such a person.
Even if he was caught in a negative mood for a while, he would never let those things get in the way of his progress.
Those setbacks, those hatreds, those sorrows, those injustices...
It will only become the driving force for him to move forward, prompting him to go faster, further and more steadily!
This point, no matter in the past life or this life, Xiao Yi has not changed.
Her Ai! is unique!
She looked at him fixedly, her eyes were like water...
