After a while, Song Ziyu, who had finished bathing and dressed neatly, walked out of the inner room. She lowered her head, not daring to look into her parents' eyes.
From the moment her father told Zhang San to dispose of the body, she knew that her father had decided to protect her, and she felt relieved.
"Tell me! What's going on?" Song Heng looked at his daughter and asked.
Song Ziyu looked at Qiu Ju and Hui'er in the room. Although she didn't say anything, Shen Wan understood what she meant and winked at Qiu Ju and Hui'er.
The two understood, retreated and closed the door.
Song Ziyu was silent for a while, and then said: "I didn't want to kill him, he was the one who threatened me first. He said that as long as I gave him five hundred taels of silver, he would leave the imperial city and not tell us what happened in the past. I told him. But I gave him money and he asked for thirty thousand taels. He was obviously obsessed with me. Even if I gave him another thirty thousand taels, he wouldn't just let me go. I was very angry and acted impulsively. ..."Just kill him!"
Did she really think about killing Zhou Yu? The dagger was also hers for self-defense.
Shen Wan's brain throbbed with pain, "You are entangled by that scoundrel, can't you discuss it with your father and me? Of course we have a thousand ways to make him shut up and leave the imperial city."
She could guess how Zhou Yu threatened Song Ziyu. It was precisely because she didn't tell her family anything that he threatened her so unscrupulously.
Song Ziyu bit her lower lip and whispered, "I just don't want you to know." She didn't want anyone to know about the intimate things she had done with Zhou Yu, let alone be looked down upon.
Song Heng said in a deep voice: "You didn't want us to know, but you turned yourself into a murderer. Do you know what the consequences will be if outsiders know what happened today? Even if your father and I are Zhenbei University General, I'm afraid I can't protect you either."
Today's emperor always pays attention to the law. The emperor's crime is the same as that of the common people, let alone the eldest daughter of the general's palace. Even though Zhou Yu threatened to blackmail him, he did not commit the crime to death.
"I know I was wrong." Song Ziyu whispered.
Song Heng put his hand on his forehead, "What's the use of knowing you're wrong now?"
Mrs. Li sat aside and sighed. She really didn't know that Ziyu was so brave and even killed someone.
Song Ziyu stood in the room with her head bowed and didn't say a word. She didn't expect that she could kill Zhou Yu. Now that Zhou Yu is dead, her parents will protect her and not push her out. The worst case is punishment.
She knelt down in the ancestral hall, scolded her, and was grounded. She just suffered.
At this time, the voices of Shen Ming and Song Ziling rang outside.
After a while, the two opened the door and entered the house.
Shen Ming looked at Song Ziyu standing in the room and asked, "Are you okay?"
Song Ziyu shook his head.
Shen Ming looked at the faces of his mother, sister and brother-in-law, and felt something was wrong. Their faces were even uglier than when they knew Song Ziyu went to slander him in front of Princess Liufang.
Song Heng looked at Shen Ming and said, "Who did you meet when you came back?"
Shen Ming said: "When I met people from the patrol camp, and when I was interrogating them, I just said that there was a thief in the general's mansion and something was stolen. We went out to catch the thief!"
The people in the patrol camp still asked if they wanted to help? But he told the people in the patrol camp that the thief had been caught, so the people in the patrol camp didn't ask any more questions.
Song Heng looked at his daughter and said, "Ziyu, please go back to Cuiyu Pavilion first!"
Song Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief, blessed them, and left Qiushi Courtyard.
After Song Ziyu left, Song Heng also asked Song Ziling to return to the room.
"Where did Ziyu go?" Shen Ming asked.
Shen Wan did not hide anything from him, and said with a very ugly face: "I went to see Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu threatened her that if she didn't give him money, she would tell her about their past affairs. She also planned to pester her. Ziyu impulsively killed Zhou Yu."
Shen Ming was so shocked that he was stunned. No wonder his brother-in-law asked Zi Ling to go back to the house.
"This girl is too courageous!"
"What are you going to do?" Shen Ming asked, frowning, this is no small matter.
Song Hengdao: "What else can we do? Of course we must destroy the body and eliminate the traces and cover up this matter. Otherwise, can I personally send her to the Fuyin Yamen?"
Song Heng was an upright person all his life, and this was the first time that he did something that went against his own conscience and principles.
Shen Ming nodded without saying anything, he could understand.
Shen Wan asked the maid to report to Mrs. Liu that she was safe. She only said that Song Ziyu had been found, but did not say what she had done.
An hour later, Zhang San and the others came back. They took Zhou Yu's body back to the General's Mansion and hid it in the stable. The city gate would be opened early tomorrow morning, and they would put it together with the fodder and take it to a mass grave outside the city. Go and bury it.
Song Heng also gave some instructions to the soldiers, asking them not to spread the word about what happened today. The soldiers all swore that they would never spread the word.
In the middle of the night, after ordering the soldiers, Song Heng returned to his room.
"Have you finished everything?" Shen Wan, who was still lying on the couch and not sleeping, asked.
"Yeah" Song Heng didn't light the lamp, took off his clothes and got on the couch, lying down next to Shen Wan.
Shen Wan moved closer to him, leaned on his shoulder and said, "After much thought, I feel that I am also responsible for Ziyu becoming what he is today."
Even if Song Ziyu didn't listen to her, she shouldn't ignore her and let her be taught badly by Lin Qingxue. From the beginning, she shouldn't treat herself as a bystander who stays out of the matter.
Song Heng put his arm around her shoulders and said, "It's not your fault, it's my fault." If he didn't marry Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin wouldn't have the chance to teach his children bad things. And it was him who was the father to educate his children. responsibility.
"Ziyu, what are you going to do?" She made such a big mistake, so she couldn't just let it go. Moreover, the child's psychology is a little distorted. If you continue to let it go, you may not know what will happen in the future.
Song Heng thought for a while and said: "Buy her somewhere else, send her to the village, and find a strict nun to discipline her."
Shen Wan nodded in disapproval and said: "She is already complaining about us now. If you send her to Zhuangzi again, she will complain about us even more." If she is locked up in Zhuangzi for a few days, Years later, her psychology may become even more distorted.
"What should we do?" Song Heng asked.
Shen Wan thought for a while and said: "Don't let her go to a girls' school yet. Ask a strict nun to teach her! I will send a letter to Princess Ren tomorrow and ask her to help look for it." Someone whom Princess Ren knew. If you have more, you will definitely be able to find a good upbringing nanny.
"Hey..." Song Heng sighed and said, "That's all we can do for now. Ziyu, you should pay more attention first."
Shen Wan didn't say anything. She felt a little guilty. She took someone's body but failed to educate their children well, although there was a reason for all this.
