In the evening, in the side hall of Zhao Mansion, the setting sun shines through the window.
“Unknowingly, it’s already the end of the year...”
Zhao Junchen sat at the table, looked at the sunset outside the window, and murmured to himself.
He clearly remembered that when he first came to this world, the evening sky was bright and not as dark as it is now.
Just like Zhao Junchen's mood changes these days.
At this time, on the table beside Zhao Junchen, there were four or five side dishes, two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, two wine glasses, and a mandarin duck pot.
There is a piece of Qian Ji Powder hidden in the cap of the Yuanyang Pot. Although it is a chronic poison, it can only be used to kill people for two or three hours. Next, Zhao Junchen will personally pour the poisoned wine to Fang Ru.
, let her drink it.
After coming into this world, it may not be an exaggeration to say that Zhao Junchen "does all evil", but this is the first time he has killed someone with his own hands.
But unexpectedly, Zhao Junchen found that his mood was very calm, without the slightest bit of anxiety or uneasiness.
Status determines the environment, the environment determines thoughts, and thoughts determine mentality.
Given Zhao Junchen's current status, nipping hidden dangers in the bud seems to be a matter of course.
"Master, Mrs. Ruyi is here."
Just as Zhao Junchen was deep in thought, Xu Qingyan's voice sounded from under the door of the side hall.
Zhao Junchen had a smile on his face and said, "Let her come in."
As Zhao Junchen finished speaking, the door of the side hall opened, and Fang Ru stepped in. Then the door was closed by Xu Qingyan. For a moment, there were only Zhao Junchen and Fang Ru in the side hall, and the left and right sides of the side hall
, and only Marquis Xu Qingyan was outside the door.
Zhao Junchen looked at Fang Ru, only to find that Fang Ru was still as voluptuous and graceful as when they first met, with a charming smile and bright eyes full of alluring charm.
When she arrived, Fang Ru seemed to be dressed up carefully, with a light dab of pink and red, adding to her beauty.
However, compared with the first time we met, there have been some changes. His figure has become thinner, and his face under the pink and white shades has also become paler.
"Master, you are finally willing to see me." Just as Zhao Junchen was looking at Fang Ru, Fang Ru moved lightly, came to sit next to Zhao Junchen, and said with a soft smile: "I thought that from now on,
, I will never see the master again."
Zhao Junchen said calmly: "You are my pillow after all, and you have never been sorry to me. How could I be so ruthless to you?"
Hearing what Zhao Junchen said, Fang Ru's smile became more charming, and she seemed very happy and contented, but her voice became softer: "Yes, the master is still willing to see me at this time, which shows that I still have some weight in the master's heart.
I am very contented."
While speaking, Fang Ru glanced at the food and wine on the table, and finally fixed her eyes on the mandarin duck pot.
Then, Fang Ru picked up the mandarin duck pot, filled Zhao Junchen's wine glass first, and then filled the wine glass in front of her.
However, while pouring herself a drink, Fang Ru turned the mechanism on the handle.
Seeing such a scene, Zhao Junchen's pupils shrank slightly.
She seemed a little surprised to see Zhao Junchen, but Fang Ru still smiled happily. In fact, Fang Ru had been smiling since she saw Zhao Junchen. Her smile was charming and had never changed.
"Master, are you surprised?" After Fang Ru put down the mandarin duck pot, she rested her head on Zhao Junchen's shoulder and held Zhao Junchen's arm. Different from the calm and calm look on her face, after physical contact, Zhao Junchen discovered that Fang Ru's body
It turned out that Zhao Junchen had been trembling slightly, and Zhao Junchen's arms were held tightly by her.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Junchen asked: "Do you know how to use this Yuanyang teapot?"
Fang Ru leaned her head on Zhao Junchen's shoulder and stared straight at Zhao Junchen's face. She was a little crazy. She exhaled like blue and said softly: "I know, I knew it a long time ago. Master, after all, you
I still underestimated the corruption of people's hearts in this world, so I must pay attention to this in the future. The original name of this wine pot is not the Yuanyang Pot, but the Yin and Yang Pot. Although it is a secret treasure in the palace, its manufacturing process has been developed a long time ago.
It was sold to a private brothel by a palace eunuch, but in the brothel, the lid contained an aphrodisiac instead of poison, so it was renamed the Yuanyang Pot."
"I was negligent." Zhao Junchen sighed and said, "I was negligent again."
Like a good wife, Fang Ru said quietly: "Master, don't blame yourself, just be more careful in the future."
After a moment of silence, Zhao Junchen asked: "So, you already know the purpose of my meeting with you?"
Fang Ru nodded lightly and said, "Master, you were the boss behind Baihualou back then. Fang Ru found out about this, and Master Fang Ru is worried."
Zhao Junchen was silent for another moment and said: "Yes, I am surrounded by dangers now, walking on thin ice, leaving no hidden dangers around me... When did you know about this?"
Fang Ru also fell silent, and after a long time she chuckled and said: "I also knew it a long time ago. After I came to the Zhao Mansion, Xu Qingyan originally treated me with courtesy, but since I personally poisoned Baihualou,
, Xu Qingyan was very wary of me, and even had people watching him all the time. It’s funny that he did this because he was afraid that I would know about it, but his doing so aroused my suspicion, and the income and expenditure accounts of our house have always been
Under my control, although you have erased the existence of Baihua Tower, you can always find out if you are willing to investigate."
Zhao Junchen sighed again and said with a wry smile: "You see, I was negligent again. I thought I did it covertly, but I didn't expect that there were loopholes everywhere."
"It's not the master's fault." Fang Ru murmured, "It's that Xu Qingyan who is useless and is dragging the master down."
Zhao Junchen asked: "Since you already knew it, why did you have to kill Wei Ping today?"
"Because I hate him!" Fang Ru's voice was filled with coldness and hatred: "If I had it to do over again, I would kill him again!"
..."...My parents died when I was young, and I was sold back and forth by human traffickers. I was eventually sold to Baihualou, where I was tortured and abused. During this period, I went through so many hardships that I couldn't tell anyone. But in fact, I
I am not afraid of the torture and ill-treatment, and I gradually got used to it. What I am afraid of is that I will not be able to escape the fate of all brothel girls. For a little money, I will allow myself to be humiliated and played with by men I don’t know, and I will force myself to smile and welcome us.
Sent, in the end, both body and soul are dirty and numb, until they are old and faded, abandoned, helpless, and despised by others, giving everything in their life, but not getting a little bit of themselves.
s things……"
"...That day, Baihualou arranged for me to leave the cabinet. They said I was leaving the cabinet, but in fact they treated me as a commodity and auctioned me off in public. The highest bidder would get it. That day, I kept hesitating, what should I do? I was allowed to be manipulated.
Should I live this life in chaos? Or should I end everything while I am still clean? Later, I stood on the high platform of Baihua Tower and looked at the eyes of the auctioneers looking at me. They were piercing and uncomfortable, or they were greedy.
Or insignificant, and then I finally decided that instead of living this life numb and miserable, I might as well take the opportunity to commit suicide. Maybe this is the only thing in my life that I can make my own decisions..."
"...However, Master, you showed up and did not participate in the auction bidding. Instead, you redeemed my body, freed me from the miserable fate of a brothel girl, and gave up my thoughts of committing suicide. Then, you took me to your house.
, care and pampering, the pet of the special house, although my identity is just a concubine, but you never treat me as a concubine, sir, you don't know how happy I was during those days, I finally have something of my own
The thing I want is not the fine clothes and fine food in the house, but the master you..."
"...But, I came from a brothel, and I felt that I was not worthy of the master, so I tried my best to please the master, and I tried my best to do things for the master. At the same time, I also begged the master, and I personally poisoned everyone in Baihualou. Firstly, to end it.
The second reason for my own past was to block other people’s mouths so that they would no longer dare to treat me as a brothel girl. But I didn’t know at that time that Baihua House was actually your property, and my actions had caused a lot of trouble.
Master, I have cleared up your suspicion..."
"... Later, because of Xu Qingyan's actions, I guessed these things and confirmed them. But not only did I not hate the master at that time, but I was very afraid. I was afraid that you knew, master, that I already knew everything. I understand, master
You are responsible for big things, and you should not leave hidden dangers around you. If you let me know that I already know, then I will never get your favor again. Everything I finally got will be lost. I will lose you.
…”
While talking, Fang Ru hugged Zhao Junchen's arm tighter, so tight that Zhao Junchen felt a slight pain.
"...Isn't it ridiculous? While the master is trying every possible means to hide it from me, I am also trying every possible means to hide it from the master, and I am trying every possible means to hide the fact that you are the boss behind Baihua Tower, because I am afraid that you will happen again
After getting this news, you will know it again..."
"...Later, Master, you went to Lu'an Mansion. After you came back, you changed. Fang Ru didn't recognize you. You became mature and rational, but you became more and more distant from Fang Ru. Fang Ru knew
, What happened at Baihua House back then, and Fang Ru’s revenge on Baihua House, have always been a thorn in your heart, master. Your master’s mood has changed, and he can no longer tolerate Fang Ru..."
"...Since these days, Fang Ru has actually been complaining about the master. The master is everything to Fang Ru. How could the master think that Fang Ru would be harmful to the master? But Fang Ru couldn't say these things to the master. She just said it.
It’s even more unclear, so Fang Ru can only let the master be alienated, and can only look at the master from a distance every day..."
"...Then, that Wei Ping appeared. He told me that you were the boss behind Baihualou back then. He was rejected by you and he wanted to use Fang Ru to take revenge on you. At that time, after knowing all this
, Fang Ru is a little at a loss. Fang Ru knows that these days, the master has monitored Fang Ru more closely, and Wei Ping is famous for being mediocre, so this matter must not be hidden..."
"...So, Fang Ru wants to kill him! He destroyed Fang Ru's last bit of luck. He made things irreversible. He made Fang Ru lose her master in the end. When things got to this point, Fang Ru knew that it had already happened.
There is no room for maneuver, so he must die..."
.........The tone was faint, Fang Ru kept talking, Zhao Junchen listened quietly.
Fang Ru initially called herself "I", but gradually changed to "Fang Ru", as if she was telling someone else's story.
But Zhao Junchen found that his shoulders had been wet at some point.
After confiding, Fang Ru quietly leaned on Zhao Junchen's shoulder for a long time, then straightened up and raised the wine glass in front of her. The glass was filled with poisonous wine.
"I wish you all the best in the future, and I wish you all the best."
Fang Ru still smiled lightly and toasted to Zhao Junchen.
While toasting, Fang Ru stared at Zhao Junchen's eyes, not missing the slightest change in Zhao Junchen's expression, as if she was still expecting Zhao Junchen to persuade him to stay.
However, after Zhao Junchen sighed lightly, his face remained expressionless, and he raised his glass and took a sip.
Seeing that Zhao Junchen had no intention of stopping him, Fang Ru, who had always been charming and charming in front of Zhao Junchen, finally showed a sad smile, and then, with some determination, drank the poisoned wine in one gulp.
Then, Fang Ru put down her wine glass and looked at Zhao Junchen dreamingly, as if she didn't want to miss another look.
Seeing Fang Ru drink the poisonous wine, Zhao Junchen's eyes finally showed some fluctuations.
Zhao Junchen asked: "Fang Ru, have you ever hated me?"
"I have hated it." Fang Ru said infatuatedly: "But... you can't hate it any more, because you can't hate everything you have..."
"Yeah?"
Zhao Junchen murmured.
"Master." Seeing that Zhao Junchen was still expressionless, Fang Ru's expression became a little more pleading: "Before Ru'er leaves, love Ru'er one more time, okay?"
Zhao Junchen looked at Fang Ru silently for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the room.
As Zhao Junchen left, soft sobbing finally sounded from behind Zhao Junchen.
With endless sorrow.
.........After leaving the side hall, Xu Qingyan, who was waiting outside the door, quickly asked: "Master, is the matter done?"
Zhao Junchen glanced at Xu Qingyan, but suddenly said: "Immediately have someone crush the pancreas, soak it in three basins of water, make it thicker, and then pour it into Fang Ru. No matter how much she vomits out, pour all three basins of pancreatic water in."
.Find those famous doctors in the capital and ask them to nurse Fang Ru back to health. Go quickly without delay."
Xu Qingyan was slightly stunned and asked: "Master, what are you doing?"
"Clean her stomach." After a rough explanation, Zhao Junchen continued: "By the way, call Li Lide, the Minister of Justice, and Gu Quan, the right deputy of the Inspectorate, to come. I have something to explain to them."
While speaking, Zhao Junchen turned around and left.
Qianji San is a chronic poison. As long as gastric lavage is performed in time, although you may inevitably get sick, it will not kill you in the end.
As for Fang Ru, Zhao Junchen still couldn't bear to kill her.
However, if Fang Ru does not die, it will be up to Zhao Junchen to find a solution to the matter of poisoning Wei Ping...
