That night, Sun Huang and the others finished the "deal" with the concubine, drank a few more tours, and then went back to the inn.
The poison that Huang Donglai had blew away undoubtedly had not occurred when they returned.
But after they left, it began to work...
This poison is one of the strange poisons recorded in Gu Qiying's notes. It has a particularly vulgar name, called "xiaohun San".
If the person who takes this xiaohun will not have any abnormalities for a while, but after one or two hours, the poisoned person will begin to feel dry and hot and hard to suppress, and then the person will try to find someone to "vent".
Next is the most wonderful thing about this poison. If the poisoned person cannot find someone else to "vent", for example, if the person is locked in a secret room with only him/her own and can only do the "thing" by himself, then he/she will be fine.
However, if he/she can find someone to vent, then once he/she starts doing things, in a short while, he/she will die suddenly during exercise due to insufficient blood supply to the brain and heart due to insufficient blood supply to the brain and heart.
Death situation... is exactly the same as those who suffer from sudden cardiac arrest and sudden death due to sexual intercourse.
Whether you look for coroners in the yamen or experts in the world to investigate, you will get the same conclusion. No one can tell that this is poisoned.
In other words, no matter how much you doubt it, the "facts" can only prove that it is an accident and a coincidence.
Therefore, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai are still very sure of getting rid of the crime. They have even thought about how to pretend to be shocked and innocent when the concubine comes to investigate afterwards.
Sure enough, people came in the early morning of the next day.
I won’t say much about how the Duke’s men advanced to the inn at such a time and how they called Sun and Huang and the others up.
In short, when they were ugly, the two of them put on their clothes again and were "invited" back to Qiliu Youlan from the inn again.
At this moment, it was not the madam who came to receive them, but a subordinate of the concubine.
They were invited directly to a strange room. As soon as they entered the room, they saw the naked concubine lying straight on the ground, her face was already gone, and her body was covered with a piece of cloth that could not be covered.
"Ah? What's going on?" Huang Donglai responded very surprised when he saw the corpse.
"Brother, is the common man... dead?" Sun Yixie also looked at the common man's subordinates and asked nonsense.
Seeing the performances of these two, the brother didn't say anything, just stood there and watched coldly.
Soon, another person walked out of the inner room of this room.
When this person appeared, Sun and Huang were really shocked because this person... was still the concubine.
He looked exactly the same as the corpse lying on the ground.
Of course, there is only one real concubine, undoubtedly the one who is still alive; as for the one who has died of energy on the ground... or the one who is with Shuangxie today and negotiates with Zhu Jiaduan, it is obviously just a substitute; he is the one who was summoned by the real concubine when Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai arrived at Qiliu Youlan and asked him to "do as planned".
"Do you need to think about it?" The concubine looked at Sun Huang and asked this question.
"Hey? Brother Shu, you are not dead!" At this moment, Sun Yixie suddenly raised his voice and rushed over with joy, "Hahaha! It's so good!"
"Hey~ you kid..." The concubine quickly raised his hand to stop Brother Sun from approaching, and said with disgust, "...Is it okay to have some face? If you are like this, do you still want to get through the troubled waters?"
Even Huang Donglai squinted Sun Yixi: "Brother Sun, after that, it's clear that it's a mistake. Do you really think that he is a mentally retarded?"
When Sun Yixie saw that the concubine was not fooled, she curled her lips: "Oh, I'll try it and it won't cost you, forget it..."
The concubine laughed dryly: "Ha...you two..." He shook his head and said again, "Okay, come with me."
As he said that, he walked out of the house with his hands in his arms, raised his head and chest.
His subordinate looked at Sun Huang and said, "Please." That means letting the two follow the commoner.
At this point, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai have no other choice. Since the intention to murder has been seen through and resolved, they can only be controlled by others.
The two followed behind the concubine, and soon they arrived at the destination - the "Dong" font-name "Secret Room".
Sun Yixie thought to be bad: Could it be that they were playing tricks, and the prince was going to settle the score with Chuxue and Shuisheng?
Just as he was thinking about this, the concubine had already pushed open the door.
The three of them came into the room and found that Chuxue and Shuisheng were already in the room, as if they had been waiting for a long time; Chuxue's little maid was not here, and she thought she had been sent away.
The subordinate of the Duke did not follow in, but waited outside the house. So after closing the door, there were only five people left in the room: Chuxue, Shuisheng, Duke, Sun Yixie, and Huang Donglai.
"Don't sit down, stand and listen to me." The concubine said as if she was the director of the Academic Affairs Office who called the students to the office. While speaking, she found a stool and sat down.
"I am very fair." The prince's thoughts were very clear, so he sat down and said without thinking much, "If I owe others, I will pay it back, but if others owe me, I will definitely take it back." He looked at Chuxue, "You'd better understand that I'm raising this woman like this now and keeping it... I have nothing to do with Shui Sheng. I do this just because one day in the future, I plan to take her as a concubine... This is what her father owes me, and she has to pay it back."
Listening to his words, Huxue and Shuisheng both showed despair and pain on their faces, but neither dared to interrupt.
"Men admire sex, women admire strength, this is nature." said the concubine, "Do you think I keep Shuisheng because I like to torture him? Or to threaten him to do things for me? Do I lack a person like him?" He paused and asked and answered himself, "I promised to let Shuisheng be a turtle slave here, just to let Xueer see that such a man who can even be denied for women is not called a man at all, and he is far from worthy of her."
"He is better than you..." At this time, Xueer muttered something in her mouth, and the second half of the sentence was so low that no one could hear it.
When the prince heard the sound, he turned to stare at her: "What are you talking about? It's okay to be louder."
At this moment, Chuxue also took a lot of effort. She took a deep breath and met the look of the concubine: "In my opinion, Shuisheng is thousands of times stronger than you! Ten thousand times!"
As soon as these words were said, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai who were watching from the side were also worried for her.
The face of the concubine also changed color. He hesitated for a moment, and then he snorted coldly: "Ha... I thought you were a smart woman, but I didn't expect..." His hand unconsciously clenched his fists, "Then I ask you... What have you done for you so far?" He paused for a moment and said in a leisurely manner, "When I took you away from home, he was seriously injured by my subordinates. It was you who begged me to kneel down and begged me to save his life.
"After healing his injury, he ran to Qiliu Youlan pennilessly, kowtowed like pounding garlic and begged me to let you go. It was your repeated requests that I did not bombard him, but let him be a turtle slave here.
"When Zheng Mukai came, he took action to protect you, but what's next? Because he was afraid of trouble, Shaozhi brought in people like Sun Shaoxia and Huang Shaoxia, and it turned out to be even more trouble...
"Besides, I scold him in person, he doesn't even dare to give up. You still need to speak out for him..."
All he said was true. Shuisheng couldn't repay his mouth, and Xueer couldn't repay his mouth either.
"So what do you like about him? Just treat him wholeheartedly to you?" The prince's words were not finished yet, "but you must understand that with your beauty and talent, there are many people in this world who are willing to treat you like this, and he has no outstanding features, and may not be suitable for you."
Speaking of this, the prince turned to Shui Sheng and continued, "Shui Sheng, I will ask you a question... Do you really think that a beauty like Xueer can protect and afford it if someone like you has the ability to protect and bear it?"
He actually didn't need to ask this question, everyone present had an answer in their minds.
"I...I..." Shui Sheng's blue veins were exposed on his head, his whole body trembled, and a word was right next to his mouth, but he couldn't say it.
Because speaking out means losing everything for him, or even losing the meaning of living.
"Sun Young Master, Huang Young Master." The monk did not wait for Shui Sheng's answer at all. After he finished what he wanted to say, he turned his head and said to Sun and Huang, "You two, Shu still admires you... Lei Buji is your brother. You come to visit me, the Seven Willows, for him, for you, is a friendship; but Xueer and Shui Sheng have nothing to do with you. In order to stand up for them, you actually have the courage to plot against me... This is chivalrous, but..."
Just as he was halfway through his words, suddenly something unexpected happened.
But seeing that Xueer, who was standing in the blind spot of the Duke's sight, suddenly pulled out a handful of sharp cuts from her sleeve and raised them high...
"Hello!"
"useless!"
Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai were facing that direction. When they saw this scene, they both thought that Miss Xueer was going to attack the concubine, so they quickly shouted to stop it.
Of course...
Xue'er's scissors didn't go to the concubine at all...
She was heading towards her face.
In a blink of an eye, Xue'er had cut several deep and long cut marks on her face.
The nearest Shuisheng was confused by the words of the concubine, and it took a few seconds to react. So when he grabbed the scissors from Xueer's hand, it was too late...
A large amount of blood flowed down Chuxue's face, neck, and wrists. At least four or five irreversible and shocking scars were cut on her white jade-like cheeks and forehead.
"Xue'er!" Shui Sheng roared and hugged Xue'er who was already limp.
When the concubine looked back at this scene, she was also shocked and calm. He thought that his words had "finished" the two of them, making them both give up, but she didn't expect that... Xueer's will and determination were far less fragile than he thought.
"You..." The prince also stood up and took two steps towards Xue'er. Looking at the peerless beauty with blood on her face and was disfigured, he felt mixed feelings in his heart, "Why are you doing this..."
But Xueer smiled, even smiling proudly: "You are right, you are just a stupid woman, and now I am even a stupid and ugly woman... So, now I should be a match with Shuisheng."
The commoner's expression froze, and he even took a step back unconsciously.
Before today, he actually didn't like Xue'er very much. He just felt that it was natural for such a beautiful beauty to be a concubine like him to be a strong man; but at this moment, he fell in love with this woman whose face had been ruined. He felt that it would be a great blessing to marry such a woman.
"Oh...it's a pity..." After a moment, the concubine sighed.
At first glance, he seemed to regret Xueer's behavior of self-destruction, but in fact he meant something else.
"Take her away." After sighing, the prince said to Shui Sheng, "You don't owe me anything anymore. Go as far as you can, don't let me see you again."
Even if he didn't say it, Shuisheng planned to carry Xue'er to find the doctor, so before he finished speaking, Shuisheng picked Xue'er up and ran out the door.
"Don't stop them, let them go." When Shui Sheng opened the door, the concubine shouted to the waiter outside the door, asking him to give up the Taoist.
After that day, Qiliu Youlan's top brand "Zhuxue" disappeared, and no one in the world had seen or heard about her.
Of course, this is what she and Shuisheng expected.
After the two men left and the door was closed again by the subordinates, the concubine sat down again.
His gaze stared at the remaining blood stains on the carpet, and he was a little dazed.
After a while, Huang Donglai's flattery made him come back to his senses: "The concubine is worthy of being a man of a man, a humble gentleman, I admire him..."
"My brother, I am also overwhelmed by the noble character of the concubine and am willing to give in to the disadvantage." Sun Yixie also continued at the right time.
The concubine looked up at Sun Huang, then calmed down before responding in a deep voice: "You two... why do you say this?"
"The beauty of a gentleman is a villain who wins the love of others." Huang Donglai said, "Since the common man would rather give up love than fulfill Xueer and Shuisheng, that is what an amazing gentleman does."
He and Sun Yixie could see through everything that happened just now. The only difference was that Sun Yixie could not express these meanings in such a literary tone like Brother Huang.
"Hmph..." The prince finally smiled again, but there was a hint of bitterness in his smile. "You two are really not as good as they are seventeen or eighteen years old..."
People like Duke cannot easily reveal their feelings; when he doesn't like Xueer, he doesn't like it, but because he falls in love with it... he wants to help others, and then he takes care of the pain in his heart.
Someone can understand his painstaking efforts at the moment, which not only made the concubine feel a little comforted, but also made him feel a little murderous...
He is such a contradictory person. Most of the time he seems to be a great traitor, but sometimes he seems to be a bodhisattva and is extremely generous and kind.
"The concubine is rewarded." Huang Donglai said, "The world is dangerous, and my brothers are just cautious in everything and think more about it."
Sun Yixie also said: "That's right, compared with the plot of the Duke, we are just a small witch, haha... Okay, it's getting late, and now the matter has been resolved. I guess Duke must want to drink a few drinks alone to relieve the depression. We won't bother you, let's take a step first..."
He walked towards the door talking, and wanted to catch fish in troubled waters.
