The news of Qi Ce's death was nothing less than a slap in the face, a blow to the Qi family's head.
All wins turned into losses, and they finally let the people behind the scenes succeed.
Yes, no one in the Qi family believes that Qi Ce's death happened naturally. It can be said that they are stubborn, but when an emotion reaches the extreme, its influence is huge.
In the early morning, Qi Ce's belongings and bones were sent home together.
Ling Yutong woke up from the nightmare and went to the front hall as quickly as possible.
Mrs. Qi looked at her and called out in a low voice: "Yutong, this is a letter from Ce'er to you."
The letter held in the old hand looks very thick, one letter can be as heavy as a stack.
Ling Yutong felt aches in her heart, so she took the letter and silently began to open it.
The first thing that caught my eye was a painting of a woman with a beautiful bun and a sweet smile. That was her appearance.
Ling Yutong's eyes suddenly became sore. She turned over the thick letter paper one by one, and each one was hers.
Only the last page has Qi Ce's clear handwriting.
[There are thousands of things in the world, but you are the only one who stands out on the page. May Yutong live a happy and safe life. 】
Big tears instantly poured down on the letter paper, and one can imagine the emotional impact on her heart.
Mrs. Qi grabbed Qi Yan who was about to walk over and shook her head at him silently.
Some emotions will make you sick if you keep them in your heart. It is better to vent them out quickly, which will become a scar.
Although it will still hurt, it will gradually calm down as time goes by.
In addition to the letter to Ling Yutong, Qi Ce had also prepared a final letter, which was written to everyone in the Qi family.
Qi Yan's heart felt heavy when he saw it, and his eyes were all frighteningly red.
He felt more and more that his second brother must have known something, so he left the letter in advance to avoid any eventuality.
Mrs. Qi opened the envelope at the bottom and was slightly startled when she saw the signature on it.
An Nanhou.
After reading the letter, her body was shaky and she would have fallen if Qi Yun hadn't been supporting her.
"this……"
Her eyes were startled and uncertain, and a bit deep.
This...could it be that what they guessed was all false?
An Nanhou's letter contained the most sincere apology, indicating that Qi Ce went to the battlefield with him and died to save him.
Qi Yan's eyes flashed violently, he didn't believe it.
Qi Ce is not a person who loves the battlefield. When his father's body came home and his second brother did not come back with him, he became suspicious. This time, his doubts reached their peak.
He never believed that there was no other person behind this.
A figure fell in front of him. His pupils shrank and he shouted: "Yutong!"
Ling Yutong fainted.
When she woke up again, she was too quiet and too calm. She locked herself in the room and didn't drink any water for the whole day.
When she opened the door again, her eyes were dark, and her body was enveloped with a stormy aura. She was very calm, but even a sudden look made people a little nervous.
"Songyue?"
She looked at the person guarding the door in surprise.
Songyue looked at her worriedly and said hurriedly: "The queen asked the slave to come. Lu He was left in the care of the queen, and the injury is not healed yet."
Ling Yutong nodded casually. She rubbed her overthinking brain and whispered, "Okay, go get me some food."
After eating and drinking, she had a thought, changed her clothes and went out.
The familiar street appeared in front of her. She could only wait for a moment when a surprised voice came from behind her.
"Hey, how long has it been since you came to visit us again?"
The waiter in the shop was all smiles and was very friendly.
Ling Yutong quickly stated his needs in a low voice. A trace of surprise flashed across the eyes of the other party, and then an abacus appeared from nowhere in his hand, making a clattering sound.
"Two thousand eight hundred and eighty cents after discount. Only regular customers can get this price."
The waiter was smiling.
That posture just said "I'm waiting to give you a discount" on his face.
Ling Yutong paid without hesitation. Seeing how refreshing she was, the waiter smiled even more sincerely and said, "We just like doing business with customers like this girl. It's refreshing and not petty."
"Just for your pleasure, I am willing to tell you one more piece of news."
The waiter's eyes clearly didn't look at Ling Yutong, but his words immediately hit home.
"I see that you have a grudge against the person you want to investigate. By chance, we happened to have received the person you wanted to investigate. It opened our eyes to the fact that the searcher was willing to spend money after his own death.
Ah~"
Ling Yutong's eyes flickered and he frowned: "What do you mean by spending money after death?"
The waiter's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and he said in a low voice: "I'm offering a reward to anyone who kills him."
"You spend a lot of money to lock up your own life, but you are scrambling for a five thousand tael mission, tsk."
As if the expression just now was like a flower in the mirror, a familiar warm smile appeared on the corner of the waiter's mouth.
"So, if you still want to do what you want, you should think about it~"
"After receiving your money, the message will be found tonight. You can come and pick it up later, or the store can take the initiative to deliver the message to your door."
Ling Yutong raised her eyes and stared at the waiter. He had a pair of smiling eyes, and his expression seemed to be deliberately controlled. He was full of enthusiasm and sincerity, so that she could not find any flaws.
However, as a person from Andu, could he really reveal such huge information to her without any defense?
After all, the person she wanted to investigate today was Yu Nanxun.
Nothing could be seen from the left and right, so she nodded and prepared to leave. She turned her head and looked thoughtful in her eyes.
There must be some other reason.
Qi Mansion, the spirit has stopped inside the door, half of the seven days have passed.
She lowered her head quietly, still integrating the information in her mind.
When Qi Yan came to the mourning hall, what he saw was her overly calm profile.
Since that day, she has never lost her composure.
Even the eldest sister would look at the memorial tablet in a daze from time to time, her eyes gradually turning red, but Ling Yutong's state was so calm that it was worrying.
Will a person who can't let go in his sleep be so peaceful in reality?
Unless, she keeps enduring it.
Qi Yan's eyes suddenly darkened, hiding all his worries.
Ling Yutong's thoughts had reached an anxious stage, and the information Andu gave her confirmed her suspicions to a certain extent. As early as when her second brother was imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment, Yu Nanxun had not intervened during this period.
A cold hatred gradually appeared in her eyes.
Regarding Lu He, we finally have an answer. Lu He’s relatives did not die due to the influence of the Qi family at all, but because of Yu Nanxun’s deliberate interference back then!
It seems that it is time to go to the palace and bring Lu He out.
Let her know how hateful her enemy is!
Civilian lives are tools he uses to test his humanity and loyalty. The burning point of the tool is hatred. Once the raging hatred has burned out, the tool can be scrapped.
