Chapter 127 Burning the Rose Garden
"Ruyan, you must be well and sober. Only in this way can you avenge Xiao Huahua!" Xiao Ye could only follow her at this time.
Qi Ruyan suddenly raised her head, stared at Xiao Ye in a daze, and said, "Xiao Ye, don't you like me? You like me, right? Then will you help me? I have nothing, I have only you."
"I will, of course I will."
After hearing Xiao Ye's affirmative answer, Qi Ruyan hurriedly knelt in front of Xiao Yede and begged: "Don't you know martial arts? Aren't you very powerful? Can you take me out?"
"Ruyan, I will take you out. But not now, we have to wait a little longer. When people are asleep in the second half of the night, I will take you out."
"Okay, okay. Shhh, let's be quiet, they won't notice us." Qi Ruyan nodded and whispered. Xiao Ye looked at her with a heartache. He knew how big a blow Xiao Huahua's death was for Qi Ruyan. Besides, Xiao Huahua's death was so miserable. I'm afraid that the wife would be angry with her impulse after she returned.
Qi Ruyan didn't say anything anymore. She knelt at the door with tears on her face. Although she couldn't see outside, she still wanted to give herself a hope. Only Xiao Ye knew that the direction she was looking at was where Xiao Huahua's body was.
"Ruyan, this is the first time I saw you crying." Xiao Ye murmured, wondering if Qi Ruyan didn't hear it, but she didn't answer.
This is probably the first time Qi Ruyan felt the smell of tears. She had never felt the pain so passionately. At this moment, she understood what it means to be a moment, and the heavens and man were separated forever. The sky gradually became dark, and the girls watching the night at the door also went back to sleep. Xiao Ye walked to Qi Ruyan, bent down and patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Ruyan, I'll take you out now."
Qi Ruyan turned around and looked at Xiao Ye in a daze, then slowly stood up. Xiao Ye took out the dagger he always carried with him, and then gently cut the window. He picked up Qi Ruyan as usual and jumped into the yard of Bizhuzhai. As soon as Qi Ruyan landed, he hurried to Xiao Huahua.
Only then did Xiao Ye realize that Qi Ruyan wanted to come out so desperately, but in fact she was just to bury the little flower.
"Xiao Ye." Qi Ruyan held Xiao Huahua's body in her arms and called out softly.
"What?"
"Can you take me to the back garden?"
Xiao Ye nodded, hugged Qi Ruyan's waist, jumped gently from the roof and between the walls, and soon came to the back garden.
"I want to bury the little flower here." Qi Ruyan said.
"Okay, I'll dig the soil for you."
"No, I'll do it myself."
Qi Ruyan walked under a tree, squatted down and began to dig the soil. She dug inch by inch with her hands, no matter how painful her hands hurt, she would not stop. It was not until she dug a pit deep enough that she buried the little flower flower in, then took out a scythe from her arms and lit the entire tree.
"Hey! Ruyan, what are you doing?"
"Hahaha!" Qi Ruyan smiled, then turned around and threw the scythe into the rose bushes, "Mingzhi! I hate you! I hate the rose garden you planted for her. The more beautiful it is, the more painful my heart will be!"
Xiao Ye looked at Qi Ruyan in the firelight, and her face was illuminated by the firelight. Since she had experienced so much today, she was still so beautiful and so far away. He did not stop her, nor did he ask Qi Ruyan where the fire sickle came from. He just wanted to stand aside and quietly accompany her, looking at her, until very far away.
Although Qi Ruyan said that she burned the entire rose garden because she hated Mingzhi, in fact, there was another more important reason. When she was very young, she witnessed a fire in the palace with Qi Tianqing. That time, the palace of the imperial concubine fell into fire, but Qi Ruyan and Qi Tianqing both felt that the fire was set by the imperial concubine herself, because the imperial concubine was only sixteen years old. She might not like the emperor, or maybe she could not stand the prison of the palace. After returning that day, Qi Tianqing said to her: "Qi Ruyan, if you go to something you don't want to go in the future, you are like the imperial concubine, setting up the largest and most likely fire to spread. As long as I see the fire, I will save you!"
Qi Ruyan didn't know if Qi Tianqing still remembered this agreement, but she did believe it. After that, she often carried a scythe on her body. After taking it for a long time, it became a habit, so she took it with her, regardless of whether it could be used or not.
Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.
Qi Ruyan watched the fire grow bigger and bigger, and laughed while she shed tears. She murmured to the fire: "Qi Tianqing, come and save me."
Such a big fire naturally scared the girl who got up in the middle of the night in Bizhuzhai to go to the toilet. She ran and shouted: "It's bad, it's bad! Everyone wake up soon! The back garden has a fire! The entire back garden has a fire!"
The girls all started to hear the sound.
"Grandma Ninth is gone! The Third Master is gone!"
"They must have set this fire!"
"Go and catch people!"
The lady was also woken up. She hurried out after just putting on a cloak. Seeing Chaotian's fire, she was furious. "Go and catch Qi Ruyan and Xiao Ye for me!"
The people from Bizhuzhai arrived soon, and they pulled Qi Ruyan and Xiao Ye out of the raging fire. The people from other courtyards also rushed to put out the fire.
In the chaos, Xiao Ye asked Qi Ruyan: "Do you want to take revenge? I will kill them for you now."
Qi Ruyan shook her head and said lightly: "I don't want to be the same person as them."
This incident was a big deal, and even Gong Meier, who had just given birth in the west courtyard, heard about it. In the past two days, Xiao Yu explained everything that had happened in the past few months to Gong Meier. The two finally resolved their past grudges, and Sanqiuzhai also came to report that Feng Xuan committed suicide by biting his tongue in the room.
No one wants to see the General's Mansion becoming what it is today.
"What punishment will Princess Anning and Xiao Ye be punished?" Gong Meier looked at Xiao Yu who was sitting by the bed teasing the child and asked softly. After hearing this question, Xiao Yu's smile gradually disappeared. He sighed and said, "Dad has gone on a battle these days, and when he comes back, it should be up to him to decide. However, as Princess Anning, he should also ask Prince Shunjing's Mansion. If there is no doubt about the Prince's Mansion, there should be only two final consequences."
“What is it?”
"Soaking a pig cage or sinking a pond. But the third brother will definitely be fine. Since ancient times, women have always said that women seduce men. So the only one who is punished in the end will be Qi Ruyan."
Gong Meier was silent. Although she didn't like Qi Ruyan, she now knew that she had done such a vicious thing to her. But she still didn't want her to die so miserably.
"Xiao Lang, I think Princess Anning and Xiao Ye should have no affair. Maybe we can save her."
"How to save this? Will they believe what we say?"
"Xiao Lang, you probably haven't touched her yet, right?"
Xiao Yu suddenly understood, "You mean..."
Gong Meier nodded, "Yes, test your body. As long as Princess An Ning is still innocent, it can prove that she and Xiao Ye have nothing to do. At that time, she will at most be expelled from the house and will not be punished for death."
