After Jiang Yurong finished speaking, the room fell into silence, so quiet that everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and didn't dare to take a breath.
The temperature inside the room also dropped suddenly, even lower than outside, like being in an ice cellar.
Secretly looking at the master's face, it was now paler than Jiang Yurong's. His eyes were so cold that wherever he looked, they would immediately freeze into ice.
"Cousin, cousin, me?" Jiang Yurong couldn't bear the depressing atmosphere anymore and spoke tremblingly.
"Get out." He Zexu said these two words coldly. As if a suffocated person suddenly breathed air, everyone rushed out of the room and breathed hard in the corridor outside.
The one who walked at the end quickly closed the door.
The moment Jiang Yurong stepped out of the threshold, she collapsed on the ground in exhaustion.
This was the first time in her life that she felt so scared and embarrassed.
However, no one among the attendants felt sympathy for her, and no one stepped forward to help and comfort her.
No matter how ugly the dead woman was, no matter how unworthy of her master, and her marriage to his master was no longer recognized, she was his master’s woman!
After so many years with the master, this is the first, the first woman of the master, so that is naturally special.
Several people looked at Jiang Yurong again and saw her raising her hand to caress her chest, reacting as if she had escaped disaster.
Even if everyone was feeling grievances for the woman, so what? The key was to see whether the master really believed what his cousin said.
Afterwards, after the master knows the truth, will he really not pursue Miss Cousin? No one knows the answer.
Also, why did the master's eyes suddenly heal after being asleep for a few days?
For a whole day, no one came out, and no one was allowed in. There was only a loud noise after they came out, and then there was the sound of things breaking and falling to the ground.
The innkeeper heard this and hurried over to take a look. They stopped him and told them in a low voice that they would compensate for the damaged items before leaving. The waiter was not happy at first, but he looked at the fierce looks on their faces, then shrank his head and left muttering in a low voice.
The master inside has not eaten, and even though everyone outside is hungry, no one leaves to eat. They are all worried, and the master who has only just recovered his eyesight should not be angry, sad, or do anything else.
After all, I had been sleeping for three days and three nights without eating or drinking.
Just when everyone was exchanging glances and trying to decide who to let into the house to see the situation, they heard footsteps coming from inside.
The next moment, the door opened.
"Eat something and set off overnight." After He Zexu came out, he said expressionlessly and walked out.
Someone quickly went back to the house and looked around, and found that the coffee table in the house was broken and scattered on the floor, and there were several fist-sized holes on the wall with blood stains inside.
He hurriedly chased him out and asked his companion to pay the bill first and pay compensation. Then he ran next to his master and secretly looked at his hands.
The fists of both hands were bloody. I wanted to go forward and bandage my master, but after looking at his face, I gave up in fear.
Following his master into a restaurant on the roadside, He Zexu sat down without saying a word. Jiang Yurong, who followed him, sat diagonally opposite and remained silent as well. The subordinates had no choice but to take their own orders.
Thinking about my master's living conditions in the valley, I quickly ordered the best dishes in the restaurant, chicken, duck, fish, and a few vegetarian dishes.
Someone boldly asked the master if he drank alcohol, but he shook his head, picked up the steamed buns brought by the waiter, and ate them with no expression on his face.
The dishes were almost untouched. Seeing the master like this, the others naturally had no appetite. They had been hungry all day and had to go on a journey later. They had to fill their stomachs and there might be a fight on the way.
After eating, someone went to pay the bill, and someone wrapped up the untouched roast chicken and duck in sauce and took it with them on the road.
Zhuo Yan, under the signal of several brothers, mustered up the courage to go to his master: "Master, where should we go when we set off?"
At the inn before, the master only said that he would travel all night, but did not say where he was going. No one asked, and they felt uneasy.
He Zexu still had a stern face: "Beijing."
Huh, after receiving the master's exact response, everyone felt a little more at ease. It would be better to just go back to the Broken Soul Valley.
The person is gone, and going back will only lead to sadness, and may also encounter other misfortunes.
At the moment, the most important thing is to return to the capital as soon as possible. The master has been missing for too long, and some people have become more powerful.
The entourage brought the horses, and He Zexu faced the direction behind him, stood silently for a moment, got on his horse and rode forward.
He remembered that on their wedding night, when she and he went to church, the two of them made an oath to the bright moon: From today on, husband and wife will share the same heart, share joys and sorrows, be loyal to each other, and be a couple for the rest of their lives!
She made the oath. He still remembered that night she said, Brother Huai, our oath is only valid in this valley. After we leave here, the oaths we made will not count.
It turned out that she had long known that their marriage was likely to change someday in the future.
She wanted to make such a vow at that time, presumably it was also a kind of spiritual comfort for herself.
When chatting, she would say that it doesn't matter whether she enjoys happiness or not, as long as she is the only woman in her husband's heart, in his eyes, and around him. She said that she is not willing to share a husband with other women.
She can be generous with everything except her husband, and she must selfishly keep her husband's love to herself.
At that time, He Zexu still thought it was ridiculous. She was the only one who could marry a man who was blind and had nothing like him. What stupid woman would want to share a blind and penniless man with her?
However, he could not let her have such a simple wish, and even cost her her life.
She was so cheerful and kind-hearted, but she died so tragically.
He had heard about the things in the river in Broken Soul Valley and didn't take them seriously at the time. However, he never expected that his wife would die tragically in their belly.
Thinking of this, He Zexu felt his throat getting more choked, his eyes burning and his heart hurting.
They were a husband and wife, they knew each other for nine months and got married for half a year. They found out about her tragic death and didn't even know his identity or name.
She healed her eyes, but after he opened his eyes and could see things, he had no chance to see her and would never know her appearance.
I vaguely remember her saying that she had acne and didn't take good care of it, and her face was covered with acne marks, which was very ugly.
At that time, he comforted her by saying that it didn't matter, she was the most beautiful in his heart.
After saying those words, He Zexu couldn't believe it. How could he become so sweet-talking?
You know, this is something he has always scorned and disdained since he was a child.
When he said it, he didn't just blurt it out out of his mind just to make her happy.
In fact, before marrying her, he had no doubts about her life experience. It is normal for an orphan girl to become strong and self-reliant after experiencing a tragic event like the plague.
However, I heard from her subordinates that when she learned that someone was chasing them in the valley that day, she immediately gave advice and asked them to take him through the waterway. There were rafts there, and no one would ever walk on that river.
of waterways.
She prepared the raft and the route drawn on the paper. So when did she prepare it? And why did she make such preparations?
Was it prepared for him? This explanation is very far-fetched. Could it be that she has the ability to predict things?
Also, she healed the eyes, so why didn’t she heal herself before, instead delaying it until now?
Is it because she is ugly? Is it because he is afraid that after his eyes are healed, he will be able to see her appearance and dislike her?
If that's the case, she shouldn't have treated him that night. In that case, wouldn't she be afraid that the doctor would cure him and be rejected by him?
He Zexu's mind was very confused. The more he thought about her, the more he couldn't help but think about it. He irritably whipped the horse under his crotch. The horse neighed in pain and ran wildly. The snow on the road skidded the front of the horse.
His hoofs slipped and he fell, and He Zexu, who had his feet in the saddle, also fell to the snow...
