Chapter 97 Above the City Wall, I Just Ask You
Chapter 97 On top of the city wall, I only ask you one question
Author: Xu Lin
If they really wanted to set a fire, Xiao Zian would not let them do it. Even if he agreed, Jiang Huaice would not agree, but Shen Zhiyi was determined to do it.
She wanted to see her plan succeed with her own eyes, and her original intention was not to get involved in the fire.
Ai Niang was pregnant, so Xi Yanyu helped her slowly walk towards the house. Xi Yanyu was very angry, and Ai Niang coaxed her gently. At this time, her belly was swollen, and her whole body had a soft light.
Seeing this made Xi Yanyu feel itchy and wanted to hold him down on the spot. When the two of them walked into the house, Shen Zhiyi took out the fire seal from his arms and looked at the closed door of the house.
"Zhizhi, what are you going to do?"
Sang Yunji stopped her, didn't he say that he would only burn the empty house? Then Xi Yanyu and Ainiang were in the house, and she wanted to kill them?
Xue Ruozheng was also a little nervous, and suddenly remembered that she had asked him to go into the house and cut off the bolt of her beloved mother's door. This did not sound like she was going to trap someone to death.
Shen Zhiyi helplessly looked at the serious expressions on the faces of the two people and said with a smile: "Where are you thinking? Even if I want to kill people, I don't need to use such roundabout methods."
She came closer to the two of them and whispered a few words, and saw the expressions on their faces: "You are really a little bad guy." She only burned the small kitchen in Ainiang's yard. There was firewood there, and the fire started very quickly.
Moreover, in order to fear that the two of them would not be able to escape, she even forced Ruozheng to cut off the door bolt.
If Xi Yanyu and Ainiang were to die, they would run out when they saw the flames rising into the sky. Naturally, she secretly added some ingredients to the tea that Xi Yanyu drank. It must have taken effect at this time, and the two of them were naturally in love with each other.
This is also the reason why Shen Zhiyi insisted on coming in person. This method is not what she, a woman who has not yet left the cabinet, should know. If she told Xiao Zian, it would be a bit embarrassing.
She timed the effect of the medicine very well, and deliberately waited for half an hour longer. Then she tiptoed and threw the fire stick in. Soon the house was filled with flames that reached into the sky.
"Let's hide away."
Then it was time to watch the show. Within a quarter of an hour, the people arranged by Xiao Zian rushed into the yard to put out the fire. At this time, Xi Yanyu ran out without even having time to put on her clothes. Ai Niang also had a coat on her body. , the bellyband was hung on her belly.
The people onlookers looked at the immoral appearance of the two people and pointed at them. The three of them had not yet left the cabinet, so they did not look at them. They just turned their backs to them and listened to the whispers of the people.
The fire in the house was getting bigger and bigger, and the two of them stood naked at the door. There was a fire inside, and there were blazing eyes outside.
Xi Yanyu was used to acting like a nobleman when he was outside. Now that he was being stared at like this, he felt like he had lost all face. His beloved mother was better off, after all, she had a piece of clothing that covered her body.
I don't know how long it took, but Master Xi and Mrs. Xi hurried over after hearing the news, and then they were taken away so that they would not continue to be embarrassed here.
"Zhizhi, do you think Xi Yanyu will not dare to come out in the future?"
Xue Ruozheng looked amused, turned her head and said to Shen Zhiyi behind her. No one came back for a long time. When she looked again, where had such a big Zhizhi gone?!!!
"Where are the people?!"
Sang Yunji patted her and said, "Stop looking for her, someone took her away."
As for who it was, a lively smile rarely appeared on her face. It turned out that the person of interest of the evil god Changping Marquis turned out to be Zhi Zhi.
One is a gentle and gentle young man, Meng Xuan'an, who will definitely be able to fulfill his ambitions in the court in the future and rise to a height of 90,000 miles.
One is Jiang Huaice, the general in charge of the Kyoto camp. When he was young, he was granted the title of king and marquis, and was given the title of wolf as a lord.
She was also curious about who Shen Zhiyi would choose, but in her opinion, perhaps only the Marquis of Changping, who had a high position and was not bound by the world, could bring joy and stability to Zhizhi.
At this time, at the other end of the alley, Jiang Huaice pressed her against the wall with gloomy eyes. He saw that she was wearing someone else's clothes, pine green clothes, so bright and unobstructed.
"Tell me, why would you rather accept another man's clothes than mine?"
When he saw her looking at another man with a smile, and watching her reaching out to take his clothes and put them on, endless jealousy seemed to completely overwhelm him in an instant.
He wished he could knock Meng Xuan'an to the ground on the spot, and then take Shen Zhiyi back to the Changping Marquis Mansion. If the remaining shred of reason hadn't held him back, I'm afraid what he would have seen at this moment was Shen Zhiyi's resentful eyes.
He had seen this look in his previous life, when he imprisoned her in Qiongzhi Courtyard.
Just that one look, just that one look, made his heart hurt so much that he couldn't help it. It was like someone had taken out his heart and crushed it again and again. He didn't want to see her look like this again.
"You want to know why right?"
"I'm telling you, it's because there aren't that many gaps and misunderstandings between me and him, let alone the heart-wrenching hatred from my previous life!"
"It was you who imprisoned me in Qiongzhiyuan. It was you who prevented me from even seeing my family for the last time. Where were you when I needed you most? Where were you when I was tied up by the rebels? ?”
"Jiang Huaice, I just want to ask you, the struggle and hesitation in your eyes on the city wall, is it for me or for Dayong?"
After saying this, Shen Zhiyi closed her eyes, and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes. The pain she had never said before, every word was like a knife, constantly pulling back and forth in Jiang Huaice's heart.
"When the rebels entered the city, Lu Mei was stabbed to death in order to protect me. I had never felt that the road to the Hou Mansion was so long before, but when I was pressed by them and walked out, it was the most difficult thing I have ever experienced in my life. road."
She thought of the corpses covering the Marquis Mansion, and looked at the people who had smiled at each other in the past, now lying lifeless in a pool of blood. The smell of blood was so pungent, she was frightened, but what came out of her heart was When will Jiang Huace come to save her?
"On the city wall, I think you are Dayong's general. For Dayong, you can give up on me or don't want me. But at that moment, I just want to ask you, as my husband, what was the first thing that came to your mind at that time? Is it me?"
She didn't think she was selfish, and she never thought she had a noble personality. All she wanted was that he could protect her when she was in danger, that's all.
Shen Zhiyi slowly opened her eyes. She didn't want to talk about these past events. After all, they happened in her previous life. But today, she told him and opened up her bloody pain to him one by one.
Let him see her pain and her hatred.
"It's you, you will always be the first in my heart."
"My struggle and hesitation is because I am too far away from you. If I use a crossbow, the distance is not enough and it will annoy them, so I am afraid. But if I use a long bow, I will definitely be discovered. Even if I shoot the person pressing you to death, There is no way I can get to you quickly to protect you, and I will also annoy them."
"When I saw you falling from the city wall, I only regretted that I didn't have a pair of wings. Why was I so slow? Why couldn't I save you? I watched the person I loved most die in front of me."
Jiang Huaice stretched out his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips. He frowned, as if crying, and his eyes were full of grief: "Five years after your death, I will never dare to return to the Changping Marquis Mansion. I will just close my eyes." With my eyes, I can feel you."
"Every dark night I fear is because I know that no one will ever love me so truly again, and I am cautious, thinking that by neglecting her and not getting close to her, I can keep her safe."
He rested his head on her shoulder and said in a low voice: "But until I lost it, I didn't know how wrong I was, how wrong I was. I loved and cherished it, but I still lost it."
