Record Eighteen: V. Tortuous
Everyone around the room only heard a faint voice from Yu Yu and had no idea what was going on. Suddenly they saw Luo Yunqin's kneeling posture, and they couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Seeing this, Xuezhi took a few steps forward worriedly, but Luo Yunqin only glanced at her lightly, and the latter immediately wrapped his steps and did not dare to move again.
Wei Ruzhi and Jiang Shengyu looked at each other, frowning.
Luo Yunqin, who stood up and stood up, was reflected in the eyes of stars. When she looked back inadvertently, there was a hint of chill, which made Zhao Zhonghuan, who was trying to help her up in front of him, couldn't help but frown slightly.
Knock, knock, knock.
"Children's illness," Luo Yunqin raised his eyes to meet Zhao Chonghuan and gave a decent smile, "Thanks to Miss Zhao's benevolent hand, I have nothing to repay, so I can only give this gift!"
Zhao Chonghuan stared at her and smiled lightly.
"Madam, I really don't dare to accept such a gift! I'm relieved that the young master's injury is fine! As for his old illness, I can't help myself anymore, and I can no longer go to my house to give him acupuncture in person!"
"The newly hired doctor Huang is also a master of Xinglin. Yesterday I had a brief discussion of medical skills with him. He also agreed with my prescription, so I asked my wife to pass the prescription to him. He will definitely be able to continue to do it.
Young Master’s diagnosis and treatment!”
Luo Yunqin nodded, and then said respectfully: "I understand the girl's difficulties! It is indeed his blessing that he is still worried about the child's disease at this moment, and I am extremely grateful!"
"However," her tone suddenly changed and her eyes burned slightly, "Young lady probably doesn't just want to chat about my child's body with me, right?"
Zhao Chonghuan looked at her steadily after hearing this.
After a moment, she raised her hand and flicked the sleeve of her robe as if unintentionally, and said lightly: "What Madam said is true! However, I think Madam probably knows what I want to ask, right?"
Luo Yunqin's willow eyebrows suddenly trembled, her eyes gradually became colder, and her expression became slightly gloomy.
"But is it related to Ah Qiao?" she asked silently.
"Everyone has a motive for committing crimes! Wealth, sex, power, fame, hatred, it's nothing more than this!"
Zhao Chonghuan said slowly, "But Madam also knows that Aqiao is just a humble female envoy in your courtyard. She is simple and simple, warm-hearted and kind to others, and is not good at calculating. She can't offend anyone powerful even if she thinks about it!"
She clasped her hands together and looked at Luo Yunqin with her eyes, filled with cold moisture, like a pool in winter, with waves of cold smoke.
"However, the murderer used an extremely cruel method to murder her. He killed her with one move, neatly and without dragging her feet! The techniques are sophisticated and the internal strength is deep. It is definitely the work of a master in the world!"
"Madam, such a ruthless master who can come and go freely in Pingzhang Mansion only murdered a little maid, why do you think you are here?"
Luo Yunqin's chest rose and fell violently in response to Zhao Zhonghuan's words, and his throat trembled. He stared straight into the girl's eyes without moving. In the eyes of Xinghe Xuanlian, she faintly caught her increasingly cold eyebrows.
"Tell me, what do you want to know?" After a pause, she said in a low voice.
"What did Madam and Fan Huiniang talk about that night?" Zhao Chonghuan got straight to the point.
Luo Yunqin clenched her teeth together, and her pursed lips twitched involuntarily. Then she smiled sadly, and her eyes revealed a sense of desolation that she had never seen before.
"Did I hurt Ah Qiao?" she murmured.
Seeing her expression like this, Zhao Zhonghuan couldn't help but his eyes flickered, and he immediately said: "Madam, please don't blame yourself! If I am right about this matter, the internal disputes are far more complicated than what you and I have seen so far!"
Her expression was solemn and cold.
"In the case of Fan Huiniang's poisoning, although Wang Shitou committed suicide and died to apologize, you and I both understand that Wang Shitou was not alone in planning such a thorough and watertight murder. There must be a deeper secret hidden behind him.
power!"
"Furthermore, I have also speculated that at that time, someone poisoned the jewelry you gave me, and later secretly placed the poison in Ah Qiao's room. Everyone in the house knew that she was your personal maid who came to marry you, so the real person who framed her was
The purpose is self-evident!”
Zhao Chonghuan said solemnly, "That's why I feel - maybe you, madam, are the one who will be in real danger next!"
Luo Yunqin shrugged her shoulders slightly, and her white fingers subconsciously twisted around the pea-green ropa. The flowers on the rug rustled in her palm, as if they had been damaged by wind and rain and were vulnerable to a single blow.
"Now if we want to unravel the secret behind this matter, the only gap now is the relationship between Madam and Fan Huiniang!"
Zhao Chonghuan's eyes were clear and sharp, "I hope that Madam can tell you everything, so that we can catch the murderer of Ah Qiao as soon as possible and prevent anyone from having an accident in the future!"
Her tone was as candid as ever, "After all - the only person the young master can truly rely on is you, madam!"
Luo Yunqin stared at Zhao Chonghuan, waves of light surged deep in his pupils, stirring like a stream——
The girl in front of her is no longer the lowly young man who was trapped in Pingzhang Mansion back then, but the clarity and wisdom in her eyes are still the same as when we first met her. Although her words are few, they can always speak directly to people's hearts, giving rise to an inexplicable sense of trust.
And look up!
However, this kind of trust and admiration was something Luo Yunqin once despised and hated!
Just like those secret emotions hidden in her heart that cannot be expressed in words, let alone the world, they devour her natural reason and calmness, causing her to toss and turn, unable to escape!
However, all these delusions were instantly turned into powder after he discovered the real identity of the woman disguised as a man, and even revealed that she might be a descendant of the royal family.
Yesterday, when she saw Wei Ruxin leading the Royal City Division without saying a word and following the soldiers of Prince Rong's Mansion to leave, even she couldn't help but feel a bit ridiculously desolate, as if she were dreaming.

Zhao Zhonghuan's eyes did not move at all, and he naturally noticed Luo Yunqin's several changes in expression, but did not urge him, but just stood back and waited.
Luo Yunqin suddenly sighed lowly and said quietly: "Girl Lan Xinhuizhi, she has obviously seen the situation I am in in the Jia family!"
She smiled bitterly, looked up at the distant sky, her eyes were empty.
She paused for a while before continuing, "I heard that the girl was lonely since she was a child, but she was able to follow the masters to practice Taoism and learn skills, and she developed the good skills she has now! However, I don't have the luck of the girl!"
She turned back and stared at Zhao Chonghuan with clear eyes.
"It is true that the suffering you endured alone cannot be said to be a blessing! However, to me, those sufferings are far more terrifying than not being trapped in such an exquisite cage for the rest of your life! You also understand that when fate can only be left to its own devices,
When others are at the mercy of others, life itself is actually painful!"
