Are you finally free? Why is this sentence so sarcastic and offensive to your ears? Xuan Yi, who had chased him here from Beijing and never let go, let go at this moment, finally let go, but finally free - right?
?Qi Zi thought bitterly in his heart.
Xiao Yunsheng was furious: "Who are you, and why do you dare to teach me a lesson?"
Mrs. Xiao slapped him hard on the face again, and Xuan Yi said: "Mrs. Xiao, Ling Sun's behavior is really worrying. I will send someone to your mansion tomorrow to disturb and talk about Xiao.
Regarding the matter of Young Master, I have been in Luozhou for so long. You also know my principles of doing things. I will not make a decision without full certainty. Although Young Master Xiao is your only grandson, the prince commits the same crime as the people. You
The old man is sensible, so what I said is right."
When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she slumped down on the stool. Xuan Yi continued: "I still have things to deal with, so I'll take my leave now. Mrs. Ling, take my leave."
Xuan Yi left, leaving behind a table of people who were at a loss and confused.
The banquet in the front yard finally broke up, and all that was left was to have a wedding party. Ling Shiqi got drunk, and Liu Zhongwen managed to escape the fate of being drunk.
Qi Zi didn't remember how she got back to the yard. She sat in the yard, looking up at the sky blankly. Her heart - I don't know when it was empty, there was nothing, and now I don't even bother to move. It's been a long time.
She then asked quietly: "Xiu Yu, it's time for the banquet in the front yard to break up."
"Miss, we left early. It's very late now. You should go in and rest quickly."
Qi Zi shook his head and said, "No, you can go down and rest first. I want to sit there for a while."
"Yes." Not long after Xiu Yu retreated, there was a rush of footsteps outside the courtyard. Qi Zi stood up and just turned around. Liu Zhongwen ran up to Qi Zi out of breath. You could smell the smell of alcohol on his body.
Liu Zhongwen held Qi Zi deeply in his arms and said excitedly: "Qi Zi, I've heard it all. He let you go, right? You finally don't have to be bound by him anymore. You are free now.
We can be together, we can be together forever." After saying that, he looked at her affectionately, held her hand tightly and said: "From now on, I will fulfill the promise between us and stay together for life.
, till death do us part.”
Qi Zi's heart skipped a beat. She just smiled slightly. Liu Zhongwen looked at her unexpectedly and said, "What's wrong? Qi Zi, are you unhappy? Didn't you say you hate him? Now you are finally free from him.
Why can’t I see you excited?”
Hate him? Qi Zi thought: Yes, I hate him. Now I finally don’t have to face him. I should be happy. How can I have the opposite mood? The person in front of me is the person I love, and I have to suffer for him.
After all the hardships, now the happiness has come to an end, how can you not be happy?
Qi Zi hugged Liu Zhongwen and said, "Brother Zhongwen, how can I not be happy to be with you? I'm just thinking about how happy and happy we will be in the future. I'm obsessed with thinking about it."
Liu Zhongwen hugged her tightly and said: "Qi Zi, do you know how long I have been waiting for this moment? Now I finally got my wish. Thank God, thank God, don't leave my sight, let me see it all the time.
your turn."
Qi Zi was stunned. It was Liu Zhongwen who said the words, but it was Xuan Yi's voice that he heard. Tears flowed down unsatisfactoryly. Why is this happening? Even though he asked himself a thousand times, he couldn't find the answer.
Liu Zhongwen said softly: "Cry, Qi Zi, cry everything out. Tomorrow is another beginning, our beginning."
The wind blows gently and the leaves rustle. What kind of tears are these? Are they joyful? Why do people who shed tears feel so melancholy and sad?
At noon the next day, Lan Zihui brought Mr. Liu, the state shepherd, and a group of officers and soldiers to the Xiao Mansion. After opening the door, he loudly read the emperor's edict. Mrs. Xiao fainted on the spot, and Xiao Yunsheng boldly shouted:
: "Not convinced."
Lan Zihui sneered and asked: "Mr. Xiao, what are you dissatisfied with? The emperor can see clearly what you have done. Just like what the emperor said to the concubine yesterday, he will not do it without full confidence.
Make a decision."
"What are you talking about? He...he...is the emperor." Xiao Yunsheng opened his mouth in shock and could not close it. Mr. Liu, the state pastor, also heard these words, and he was also surprised and at a loss.
"Why, do you think this general's imperial edict is false?"
"Even if he is the emperor, he cannot arrest people randomly." Xiao Yunsheng was still struggling. Lan Zihui smiled and said: "The emperor does not arrest people randomly. Come on, bring the people up to me."
"Follow your orders." After a while, officers and soldiers grabbed Boss Jiang, who had brought Qi Zi to Luozhou, and some thugs and individual travelers from the Xiao family who had violated the law came up. Xiao Yunsheng looked at them in surprise, and Lan Zihui said: "What?
Mr. Xiao, I don’t know you anymore. These people are all very close to you. They are the ones who exposed everything you have done in order to survive. Now you still say that the emperor has no evidence?"
Seeing that the incident was revealed, Xiao Yunsheng finally shed tears when he saw the coffin. He knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing: "General, have mercy on me, general, have mercy on me."
"Spare you, I can't make the decision, general. Come, take it away for me."
"Yes, get up, get up." The officers and soldiers ordered him unceremoniously. At this time, Mr. Xiao, who had been arrogant and domineering in the past, finally knew how to write the word "fear".
The officials escorted him through the market, and no one in the crowd clapped and applauded. Some people even pointed at him and said:
"Retribution, God has opened his eyes."
"He deserves it. This kind of person should have been arrested long ago."
"Finally, someone dared to treat him. Lao Kai opened his eyes."
"Yes, he has today too."
…
Xiao Yunsheng was imprisoned in Luozhou Prison. Xiao Yun was trembling in the prison column and looking at everything around him with fear. It seemed that he was very frightened. The old Mr. Xiao no longer existed.
.
At the door of the prison, Lan Zihui said: "Master Liu, please follow me to see the emperor."
Mr. Liu was startled, remembering that he had committed corruption and perverting the law in the past. Cold sweat dripped from his forehead. Lan Zihui saw it and sneered: "Let's go."
"Yes, yes, yes." Mr. Liu followed tremblingly and almost fell down. An officer and soldier supported him, and he shouted: "Get away, get away."
In Youyuan, Defu had just made a cup of tea for Xuan Yi. Xuan Yi sat quietly at the desk, looking at the memorial, and asked after a while: "Is it time for Zihui to come back?"
"Back to the Emperor, General Lan should be here soon. How about my servants going to the door to greet him?"
