Chapter 242 Killing He Songning

Qiao Xinyu couldn't fall asleep.

Xue Qingyin's eldest brother is too scary. If he is wary of them, why shouldn't they be wary of him?

So when He Songning shouted "Qingyin" for the first time, Qiao Xinyu opened her eyes.

In the dark hole, only a little moonlight came in.

She vaguely caught a glimpse of Xue Qingyin being hugged, but then there was the sound of the blade cutting into the flesh.

I had just heard the sound of King Wei being killed earlier, and it was firmly etched into my mind and unforgettable.

I listened to it again so quickly.

He also wants to kill Xue Qingyin?

Qiao Xinyu couldn't figure out the logic, but she suddenly stood up and rolled down the haystack.

This movement suddenly woke up the two Mon slaves.

But Xue Qingyin did not look back, let alone ask for help.

Qiao Xinyu only heard her say: "You taught me this." "You are not my eldest brother. You know it and I know it too."

Qiao Xinyu was immediately frozen there.

What does this mean?

Xue Qingyin's next words answered Qiao Xinyu's doubts.

"Why? Shouldn't you understand clearly in your heart? You have occupied the position that originally belonged to my biological eldest brother. My mother-in-law loves you, but she doesn't know that the one she loves in the end is a fake!"

"I know your ambition. I know that you pushed me to King Wei, not because you really wanted to find a good future for me. You just wanted to use me to control King Wei and deal with King Wei."

"I know that you like Xue Qinghe more than usual. Is it because her weak and helpless appearance reminds you of yourself? Thinking back to the fact that your biological mother died young and your biological father who was the emperor refused to recognize you. You were also a human being when you came to this world. Wrong?"

Xue Qingyin speaks every word slowly and clearly.

He Songning's expression became even more gloomy and ferocious.

He held Xue Qingyin's wrist tightly, with such force that it seemed like he was going to break it.

Xue Qingyin didn't expect that even though he looked like this, he could still have such great strength.

She pursed her lower lip and clenched the handle of the knife tightly with her fingers, about to pull it out and stab it again.

But He Songning held her until she couldn't move.

The two of them fought for a while, but no one could gain the upper hand.

Probably because he used too much force, He Songning's eyes gradually became bloodshot. He asked sternly: "Since you have known this for a long time... and have decided to kill me, why are you still saying those words to me by the stream?"

Xue Qingyin pressed her lower lip hard and asked her, "Is it fun to lie to people?"

He Songning couldn't answer.

"I did it on purpose," she said.

Xue Qingyin paused for a moment, then followed up: "You think you can control people's hearts through applause. It's my turn to lie to you today. I advise you to put down your doubts, thinking that when you really let go, I will poke you again." If you cut me, it will hurt more."

When Qiao Xinyu heard this, her eyebrows jumped in disbelief.

Xue Qingyin... knows how to make people feel more painful.

"But people like you, even when you walk with me, you have to wonder if I will push you into the water. Even when you kill King Wei, you have to use me as an excuse to pretend to be affectionate. How can you really let go? Suspicious?" Xue Qingyin twitched her lips sarcastically.

"If I hadn't been frightened by the death of King Wei, would King Xuan and I have become the murderers when we returned to Liang Dynasty?"

"Did you really come to the Mon tribe to save me? Or am I just a scapegoat for you?"

He Songning took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Then you have been lying to me, haven't you? Show it to the king of the Meng clan, show it to me. It really made me put down my suspicions."

Xue Qingyin asked, "If I didn't pretend, you would have tried to kill me, wouldn't you?"

He Songning was speechless.

"Everyone may be a stumbling block to you in your eyes, and you have always been ruthless in dealing with stumbling blocks. ... I don't want to be a stumbling block."

"...You're not." He Songning stared at her and squeezed out three words.

Xue Qingyin was sober and unmoved at all.

She shook her head and said, "That's because you think I'm weak and pitiful, so you're willing to give me some tenderness. Do I have to act in front of you for the rest of my life? I don't want to."

"So you want to kill me?" He Songning laughed to himself.

"For my mother-in-law, for myself..."

"For King Xuan?" He Songning answered in a gloomy tone. Before Xue Qingyin could speak, he immediately asked: "Isn't King Xuan suspicious? Hasn't he ever taken advantage of you?"

"He is my pillow. I know him far better than you. You don't have to provoke." Xue Qingyin said.

He Songning's complexion suddenly became extremely ugly, and his body began to tremble because he was so tense.

Xue Qingyin pulled with him again and noticed that He Songning's strength was slowly weakening.

She bit her lower lip, exerted force, and finally pulled out the knife.

The blade cut across his palm, leaving a deep blood mark.

He Songning groaned and curled up, but still held her with his other hand and did not let go: "If I die here, Xue Qingyin... you will also be buried with me."

Xue Qingyin immediately reacted: "...your people are secretly following you?"

So he said with certainty that everything would be fine in two days?

He Songning opened his mouth and forced a smile: "You are really smart."

But they have already broken up to this point.

"Are you bluffing me?" Xue Qingyin took a deep breath, and while talking to him, she quietly clenched the knife in her hand again.

He Songning's eyelids trembled feebly, and his voice became even harder: "Then give it a try."

Xue Qingyin held down her racing heart, grabbed the knife and stabbed him twice more.

He Songning finally let go of her hand.

Xue Qingyin turned around quickly.

Before Qiao Xinyu could recover, she was grabbed by Xue Qingyin.

"Run! Yunduo, Azhuo! Let's go together!" Xue Qingyin's voice echoed in the cave.

Qiao Xinyu climbed to her feet.

Yun Duo and A Zhuo also rushed to Xue Qingyin's side.

Xue Qingyin grabbed the knife and ran forward for two steps, then suddenly turned back. She stretched out her hand and put it between He Songning's nose.

...no breath.

Is there no breath?

Xue Qingyin was afraid that she would misjudge because she was too nervous.

She took a deep breath and stabbed him in the stomach again.

Xue Qingyin said firmly: "...This is what you taught me."

When he killed King Wei, he killed him to the point where he was completely unable to save himself.

That means she doesn't have a horse.

No, no, even Arima can't do such a thing.

Xue Qingyin was sweating profusely and her whole body felt weak.

She didn't dare to delay any longer and quickly turned back to catch up with Azhuo and Yun Duo. The two of them fought against her and ran as fast as flying.

"Where are you running?" Qiao Xinyu asked after recovering from the huge impact.

Only then did she realize that Xue Qingyin’s eldest brother was actually the illegitimate son of the current Holy Emperor!

Only then did she realize that Xue Qingyin was not that delicate...

Xue Qingyin in this room was silent for a moment, her mind spinning rapidly.

The farmers made it very clear that if there is no one to guide them, they will lose their way in the mountains and forests.

"Go to a place with water first." Xue Qingyin said.

Qiao Xinyu is also a smart person. She knows that it is to ensure that they can survive first.

She asked: "To that creek?"

Xue Qingyin shook her head: "Go further."

Qiao Xinyu nodded and led the way.

Xue Qingyin hesitated for a moment, then asked her: "Did it scare you?"

Qiao Xinyu: "No. You... are very decisive. I thought I would die in the hands of your elder brother first."

Xue Qingyin breathed out: "What you heard today..."

Qiao Xinyu said hurriedly: "Only you and I know. If I reveal his identity, I will not be tolerated by the royal family."

Xue Qingyin was relieved. It's much easier to talk to smart people.

Then he took a few steps forward.

Xue Qingyin suddenly remembered and asked: "You are pregnant, so walking like this...isn't it okay?"

Qiao Xinyu looked at her: "Aren't you enduring the same pain?"

Xue Qingyin: "I didn't."

Qiao Xinyu was stunned for a moment: "...Then the pregnancy was still not saved?" As soon as the words came out, Qiao Xinyu realized that this logic did not make sense.

She was silent for a moment and asked softly: "Is it a lie?"

"Well, it's fake." Xue Qingyin said, "So I should still be able to take care of you, right?"

Xue Qingyin is not sure either.

She thought, luckily she brought A Zhuo and Yun Duo with her!

Qiao Xinyu was having a hard time digesting all the huge shocks she had received in the past two days...

She said: "I'm fine."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Xue Qingyin. Seeing Xue Qingyin still holding the knife, she was stumbling.

Qiao Xinyu said: "Give me the knife."

She paused for a moment, then quickly added: "I don't mean anything else, it's just... if your eldest brother, no..." Qiao Xinyu didn't know what to call him.

Xue Qingyin said nonchalantly: "Go on."

Qiao Xinyu nodded: "If your eldest brother's men keep following you, they will definitely come to hunt us down and take revenge after they find out that your eldest brother is dead. You must have difficulty using the knife. I have learned some moves, so why not leave it in my hands..."

Xue Qingyin blushed.

Qiao Xinyu also saw that she was reluctant to stab her just now.

But what can be done? Let alone killing people, she has never even killed a chicken.

Xue Qingyin handed the knife out generously and asked, "Are you really not tired?"

Qiao Xinyu breathed out silently and said: "To be honest, these two days have been the best I have ever had. My father may have arrived at King Xuan's camp, and he will go back to be with my mother soon. Reunion. ...The death of King Wei is also a good thing for me."

"If there is no burden on the heart, how can one be tired?" she said.

Xue Qingyin felt relieved: "That's good."

They said nothing more.

The slender figures walked away together under the moonlight.

Not long after they left, someone came and rushed to the cave.

"There is blood."

"Could it be that the Mon people are chasing us here?"

"It's impossible, we're staying on the right path."

Several people were talking in low voices and walking towards the cave.

Then their steps paused and their expressions suddenly changed.

A thin figure fell on the straw pile, and blood soaked deeply into the straw.

"Master!" They swooped up, their tentacles wet.

They managed to help He Songning up, and stretched out their hands in fear: "...I'm out of breath."

When the others heard the sound, their faces turned ashen.

"Who killed the master?"

"Is she a big girl?"

"No, it shouldn't be! The concubine of King Wei must have taken advantage of the situation to kill someone first, and then took away the eldest girl!"

"Yes, the father of the concubine of King Wei is the Jiedushi of Yizhou, so she must have learned kung fu from him..."

They said in cold tones and got up to chase the people.

At this time, the man who was supposed to be dead suddenly grabbed the cuffs of the person next to him. He sat up, his whole back arched, and blue veins popped out on his forehead.

He opened his mouth and spat out several mouthfuls of blood.

His chest rose and fell slightly.

But he was indeed... still alive.

They were startled: "Master?"

He Songning's face almost merged into the darkness, with only a little blood on his chin illuminated by the moonlight.

He murmured: "You have learned very well."

He didn't forget to stab him again when he left.

"How can you be weak... Aren't you and I... the same people? You are so cruel..."

He Songning smiled grimly: "When you bewitched me and made me want to have a normal family, you cut it all off with one knife."

"You are not less cruel than me... Qingyin."

When they heard the name of the eldest girl come out of the master's mouth, their scalps suddenly numbed and they stopped there at a loss.

He Songning turned his head with difficulty and moved his lips: "No... No need to chase."

She was right.

When she pretended to be weak, he showed her a little tenderness. It's not as good as his love for Xue Qinghe...

But his love for Xue Qinghe is no different.

It's just that he instinctively pities weak and pitiful things under his paranoia. Because only those weak and harmless things can really make him feel at ease.

And when she completely tore off her disguise...

He suddenly understood.

Weak and harmless things can't make him feel at ease.

That's not love, let alone love.

"You understand my thoughts so well, you and I are so similar, you should be the one standing by my side."
