33. Chapter 33(1/2)
Yangzhou is already a little hot in July, and the occasional wind seems to make people restless.
It was only past noon at this time, and the sun at noon was very hot. Xu Miaoyin couldn't care about the hot sun. She wondered why Fang Zhiyuan was looking for her? How could she ignore Xiao Qi's restriction on her?
, took her out of Lanyinyuan.
At first, Yuqiu wanted to stop her, but she was defeated by Fang Zhiyuan's eyes. She wanted to go out with Xu Miaoyin, but was ordered by Fang Zhiyuan not to follow, so she could only watch Xu Miaoyin helplessly.
Out of Lanyinyuan.
After walking out of Lanyin Academy, she kept following Fang Zhiyuan, speculating on Fang Zhiyuan's purpose of meeting her alone, but during this period, Fang Zhiyuan didn't say a word to her.
It wasn't until the two of them reached the water pavilion by the lake that Fang Zhiyuan turned and entered the water pavilion. Xu Miaoyin could only follow and walked into the water pavilion.
The two of them sat on both sides of the tea table, but Fang Zhiyuan made tea leisurely. It wasn't until the water boiled that Fang Zhiyuan raised his eyes and looked at Xu Miaoyin and said, "You are quite calm, and you didn't even ask me
The purpose of my search for you."
When Xu Miaoyin heard this, she just smiled and said: "Since uncle came to me deliberately, he must have something to say."
Fang Zhiyuan poured tea and said: "We don't have much time. Xiao Qi will be here soon. Let's make a long story short. I think you already know his identity and his purpose. If you want to leave here, I can help you, but
I have conditions."
He actually offered to help him leave here. Xu Miaoyin did not expect that it would be so smooth and she could reach a consensus with Fang Zhiyuan.
Xu Miaoyin asked: "What are the conditions?"
Fang Zhiyuan didn't stop, put the collected tea into the teacup, poured in the soup, and said: "I want you to help me kill Xiao Qi."
Xu Miaoyin was startled and looked at Fang Zhiyuan in surprise. Wasn't he Xiao Qi's uncle, who had been helping him seize the throne? Why would he want his life?
Xu Miaoyin didn't know his purpose and asked: "Why?"
Fang Zhiyuan gave her a strange look and said, "Because he didn't listen to me, so..." He placed the brewed tea in front of Xu Miaoyin, and then said, "I don't have to keep him.
"
Xu Miaoyin was still in shock. The person in front of her and what he said seemed a bit familiar to her, as if the person in front of her had said the same thing to her, but she couldn't remember anything about it.
Xu Miaoyin was suddenly in a trance. It seemed that she was not in this waterside pavilion, but in a very high place. The wind was blowing around the corners of her clothes. The wind was very strong, making her shaky. She turned around and seemed to be
She saw someone running towards her, but she fell from a height with the wind...
"Xu Miaoyin..."
Fang Zhiyuan's voice brought her back to reality. She looked for a voice and then remembered that they were in a waterside pavilion now, and the person in front of her was negotiating terms with her.
Xu Miaoyin came back to her senses, clenched her hands, and said: "I also have conditions. You have to help me rescue my father and sister. I want to see them leave Yangzhou with my own eyes, and then I will help you."
Fang Zhiyuan smiled playfully, looked at Xu Miaoyin thoughtfully, and said after a moment of silence: "Okay, I promise you, you will be able to see people in three days, but you have to pay something, so we can
It’s a fair deal!”
Fang Zhiyuan pushed the tea in front of Xu Miaoyin forward, and then said: "I have poisoned the water. As long as you drink it, the poison will be released in five days."
Xu Miaoyin looked at the tea cup in front of her, and her heart shrank. Her heart felt empty and painful. She would do anything for her father and sister, even if it cost her own life.
She closed her eyes, raised the teacup, and was about to drink it when the back of her hand seemed to be hit by something. It numbed her instantly, and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground.
I saw Xiao Qileng striding into the waterside pavilion with a calm face, grabbed Xu Miaoyin's hand, blocked her behind him, and asked in a cold voice: "I don't know why uncle is looking for Miaoyin? But you can say it in front of my face
."
Fang Zhiyuan was still sitting comfortably and found a comfortable position. He looked at Xiao Qi and said, "We have finished talking about our affairs. You can take her away."
Hearing this, Xiao Qi's eyes flashed with sternness and panic, but his face was still cold. He looked at Fang Zhiyuan with warning eyes and said: "If uncle still wants to stay here, it's best to follow my wishes. If
It’s still so casual, so don’t blame me for inviting uncle out of the Xu family!”
After saying that, he took Xu Miaoyin out of the waterside pavilion and returned to Lanyin Courtyard.
Along the way, Xu Miaoyin could feel Xiao Qi's anger and his breathing disordered by anger. He seemed to be suppressing his anger, and her hands were already painful from his grip.
After returning to Lanyin Courtyard, as soon as I stepped through the gate, I saw Yuqiu and Yuchun kneeling in the yard, with marks of being whipped on their bodies. Both of them looked pale, but they did not dare to raise their heads.
Seeing this, Xu Miaoyin suddenly struggled, "What did you do to them? I followed your uncle voluntarily, why did you whip them?"
Xiao Qi kept walking and pulled her away without looking back after hearing the words. He kicked the door open with a bang, pulled her into the house, and closed the door vigorously.
Xu Miaoyin rubbed her wrists and saw Xiao Qi's stern face, as if there was a storm in his eyes, approaching her step by step. Xu Miaoyin gradually felt the dangerous aura emanating from him, so she turned around and ran to the inner room and closed the door. Unexpectedly,
The door that was closed the next moment was kicked open by Xiao Qi.
Xu Miaoyin was so frightened that she kept retreating until her feet got caught on the chair and she suddenly fell down on the chair. Xiao Qi also approached her and leaned over to look at her for a long time before speaking slowly.
"Do you know who he is? Just follow him rashly."
The suppressed anger and fear made Xiao Qi feel a little abnormal. Xu Miaoyin also felt it. She glanced away, not wanting to say a word to him.
Xiao Qi was irritated by her neglect, reached out and grabbed her chin, turned her head to face him.
His hot breath sprayed on Xu Miaoyin's face, "Don't treat me with such an attitude. I told you, you don't want to know the consequences."
Xu Miaoyin was also irritated at this time, "Then what attitude should I use towards you? Should I please you and be at your mercy?"
"Or, even if you want to kill my father and sister, will I still spend time with you and be the canary in your cage for the rest of my life?"
Xu Miaoyin stood up and approached Xiao Qi step by step, "I am just a stepping stone on your road to imperial power. You can take what you want and throw it away. I cannot resist or disobey. I will just be your entertainment for the rest of my life."
!”
By the end of the story, Xu Miaoyin was so excited that she choked slightly, and her eyes were even red, but she stubbornly refused to shed a single tear.
She looked at Xiao Qi bitterly. Although she said what was in her heart, her heart was not happy at all. She only felt sad.
Seeing him slowly becoming helpless and helpless because of her words, Xu Miaoyin smiled to herself, why was he helpless? Why did he show such an expression!
Xiao Qi was really at a loss. He didn't know that this was what she was thinking during this period. Now she said it out loud. Although he knew what she was thinking, she defeated him. It turned out that she believed in her heart
He would definitely kill her relatives. She had never believed him before.
Perhaps she was thinking this way three years ago, and believed that he was the murderer who killed her father and destroyed her home, so she didn't even want to keep the children. She just wanted to go with them and didn't want to listen to his explanation.
, unwilling to forgive him, no matter how much he loved her and wanted to keep her by his side, she was unwilling to look at him again.
She would rather go crazy than accept him!
Xiao Qi felt a strange sense of sadness in his heart. What else does he want in this world? If she doesn't want him, then he will let her do it. They will die together, and then there will be no worries.
She stayed by his side and could never leave him!
Xu Miaoyin didn't know that her words had stimulated Xiao Qi. She saw him looking at her. His face, which was still cold at first, suddenly became gentle, with a crazy light flashing in his eyes. He pulled Xu Miaoyin in front of her.
Holding her hands tightly with one hand, Xu Miaoyin could not struggle away no matter how hard she struggled.
Xu Miaoyin was a little scared for a moment, not knowing what he was going to do, "Xiao Qi, what on earth do you want to do?"
Xiao Qi just smiled and took out a dagger from his waist. The sharp blade penetrated into Xu Miaoyin's frightened pupils.
"Miaomiao, didn't you say that I killed your father? Okay, I'll give you my life, so you won't want to run away or leave me."
As Xiao Qi spoke, in Xu Miaoyin's frightened eyes, he put the dagger in her hand without Xu Miaoyin's refusal, and pointed the sharp end at his own heart while smiling like a child.
Xu Miaoyin was so frightened that she couldn't tell whether she was afraid that he would kill her or that she would never see him again. She could only shake her head and murmured "no".
Xiao Qi held her hand holding the dagger and stabbed it into his heart bit by bit, as if he couldn't feel the pain. He smiled and said: "Miaomiao, if I die, you can forgive me. Yes."
? As long as I die, you will always keep me in your heart, so you will never leave me."
Until this moment, Xiao Qi still didn't want to hurt her. As soon as he thought that she would die in front of him, his heart felt like a knife. This was more uncomfortable than killing him. In this case, he would kill himself and die.
In front of her, she will never forget him for the rest of her life.
Xiao Qi's strength was so strong that Xu Miaoyin couldn't break free from his grasp with both hands. She could only watch the dagger disappearing into his body inch by inch, and her heart also felt stronger and stronger as the dagger disappeared.
The growing panic and the feeling of powerlessness that she was about to lose the most important thing suddenly enveloped her.
"No, Xiao Qi, no, you can't do this to me." Xu Miaoyin looked at Xiao Qi with some collapse, tears constantly flowing down her cheeks.
It wasn't until the entire dagger was inserted into Xiao Qi's body that Xiao Qi lost his strength and let go of Xu Miaoyin. Xu Miaoyin couldn't help but hug his sliding body, and as he fell to the ground, she held Xiao Qi in her arms.
Xu Miaoyin held his head, her trembling hands already stained with his blood. Seeing the blood pouring out of his chest made her heart clench tightly.
"Don't force me, Xiao Qi, you can't force me like this!"
Xiao Qi reached out and touched her face. His lips, which were already pale due to blood loss, curled up slightly and said with a smile: "I will not force you, and I will never force you again..."
After saying this, Xiao Qi fainted.
As Xiao Qi broke away from his hanging hand, Xu Miaoyin felt her heart stop beating. She didn't want him to die. She had never wanted him to die.
"Come on, come on, call the doctor, come on, call the doctor..."
She couldn't help but blurt out her hoarse cry for help. It wasn't until Qin Zhan broke in that she looked at Qin Zhan and said helplessly: "Call Doctor Lu quickly, save him, save him quickly!"
Although Qin Zhan was shocked by the scene in front of him at first, he quickly recovered. He tested Xiao Qi's breathing first and felt his weak breathing. Then he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, picked up Xiao Qi, and put him down.
After lying on the bed, he said to Xu Miaoyin: "Madam, the master can still be saved, I will go and call Doctor Lu right now!"
When Xu Miaoyin heard that Xiao Qi could still be saved, she fell down beside the bed, held his hand and cried silently.
Fortunately, the Xu Mansion was not big, and the guest house where Lu Shifang lived was not far away. Within a moment, Qin Zhan came over with Lu Shifang.
Lu Shifang asked Qin Zhan to take Xu Miaoyin aside, check Xiao Qi's injuries, and after feeling his pulse, he hurriedly took out a medicine from the medicine box and fed it into Xiao Qi's mouth, then helped him swallow it, and then
