"Xuanzhi, do you really want to be so decisive?" Jinghua's two fingertips pinched into the palm of her hand, and the pain made her try to stay rational.
With tears in her eyes, she walked up to Chu Xuanzhi with a shaky body and asked: "Although I am guilty, I will die in your heart?"
At that moment, she hated that she was not a boy. If she were born a boy, she would be the eldest son of the emperor. Her mother would also be promoted to the title of fourth concubine, and she would not be sent away as a child.
Under Concubine Wan's knees, she lived cautiously.
Chu Xuanzhi's eyes were firm: "There is no right or wrong in this matter, it is just a life for a life."
"Sister Keyi is still young, she is innocent, can't you even tolerate her?" Jinghua asked tremblingly.
She raised her head and looked at the sky, which was a little gloomy and seemed to be so depressed that she couldn't breathe. Although she didn't know martial arts, she could still detect the dangers lurking around her.
Jinghua closed his eyes, knowing that he would not be able to escape today. He stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, held up the hem of his skirt with one hand and knelt down on the ground: "I saved you twice, now I will give you to Sister Yi instead."
There is only one way to survive, one person does the work and the other takes responsibility. I don’t know about many things, so just risk my life to pay for it.”
Chu Xuanzhi kept his face tense and said nothing.
"I wrote a secret letter to the Queen Mother, reporting Feng's existence and causing her innocent death. I accepted this life. However, Jiang Yunxu's death was not forced by me. I did have the intention to persuade her to consider the overall situation.
After saying a few words, she pulled out her hairpin and killed herself, a life I would not accept no matter what."
Jinghua is taking a gamble now. She is betting on whether Chu Xuazhi will be soft-hearted.
Knowing that there is no way to escape, it is better for one person to die than for both people to die. Only by living can there be hope.
Chu Xuanzhi was not shaken by Jinghua's words at this time. If he hadn't been concerned about the past friendship, how would he have given him the poisoned wine?
To say the least, he was executed too late.
"Sister Huang, let's get on our way." Chu Xuazhi lost his patience and became determined.
Jinghua raised his head and looked at Chu Xuuzhi in shock, feeling a little excited: "Do you really want to kill the innocent Sister Yi? What is the difference between you and the foolish king who kills innocent people indiscriminately?"
He turned his back and didn't look at Jinghua's face again.
In Jinghua's frightened eyes, she watched the two guards approaching gradually. Jinghua stood up, grabbed the poisoned wine, drank it in one gulp, and then looked at Chu Xuanzhi's back staggeringly, smiling sadly: "Chu Xuanzhi
, you are so cruel, after all, I overestimated you...haha."
She laughed while holding back the severe pain all over her body, but the poison soon became apparent, bleeding from all her orifices, and she fell down with her eyes wide open in reluctance.
This scene was clearly seen by Sister Yi who was not far away. She bit her lip tightly and almost screamed out. A strong hatred welled up in her heart. She will remember today firmly, sooner or later.
One day she will make Chu Xuanzhi and Jiang Yunxu pay a heavy price!
"Master, the county master has expired." Yin Feng took a breath and brought a piece of white cloth to cover Jinghua.
A look of loneliness flashed across Chu Xuazhi's eyes, and he sighed softly.
At this time, the guard hurriedly came to report: "Reporting to the emperor, Miss Yi has jumped into the well."
"Lead the way!" Chu Xuanzhi raised his chin. If Sister Yi was a four or five-year-old child today, he would definitely spare Sister Yi with benevolence.
It's a pity that she is not. She was raised by Jinghua. She has learned a lot of skills from childhood. She is by no means as simple as she seems on the surface.
Especially after Lian Ye revealed the secret message, no one who threatens Xu'er's safety can be allowed to live in this world.
Chu Xuanzhi rushed to the well under the leadership of the guards. There were several maids kneeling tremblingly, and a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes were neatly placed on the ground beside the well mouth.
"This well leads to the moat outside. It is usually used for making fires, cooking, and doing rough work. Just before burning incense, Miss Yi didn't know what happened, but she threw it directly into it." A nun who was working hard trembled.
said in a voice.
Under the moonlight, she saw someone wearing the same clothes as Miss Yi, standing at the mouth of the well. Just as she was about to get closer, she saw Miss Yi jump into the well with a splash. She was so frightened that she screamed and screamed again.
After attracting the guards, this scene happened.
Chu Xuanzhi lowered his head and looked down the well. The water in the well was indeed fast. He turned to the guards and ordered: "Find a few guards with good water skills to see where the well is going, and then surround the entire county master's palace."
, no one is allowed to step out of the county lord's mansion until he finds Sister Yi!"
