Harue Kagetsu

After the villain left, Zhu Jiyue was still in shock, collapsed on the ground, staring at the sword that was originally intended to be presented to Li Mu, feeling both ashamed and resentful. After a while, Fang gradually regained his senses. He wanted to get up, but his hands and feet were weak. He called the maid to help him, but there was still no response. Knowing that those people were all lazy, or took the opportunity to have a private meeting with the guards, gritted their teeth, barely stood up, grabbed a celadon flower bottle at hand, and threw it out the window angrily.

The porcelain bottle fell to the ground, making a cracking sound, which sounded extremely harsh in this silent night.

There was finally a sound of footsteps outside the house, as if someone was climbing upstairs.

"Where did they all die? Why don't you come in and serve me?"

Zhu Jiyue's face was full of anger, and she scolded sharply outside the door.

The door was half-closed, and in response, it was slowly pushed open, and a figure appeared at the door.

The interior is dimly lit. It is precisely because of this that Zhu Jiyue didn't see who was coming, and mistook the ugly man for Li Mu, which is why he was so humiliated.

But at this moment, in just one glance, she could see the person outside the door.

It was none other than the eldest princess Xiao Yongjia!

Zhu Jiyue was shocked, and the degree of shock was no less than the big hairy face that suddenly turned to him just now.

She gave a shudder, and while continuing to call out loudly, she ran to the window, looked down, and saw a few people guarding the entrance downstairs, clearly brought by Xiao Yongjia.

Zhu Jiyue froze for a while, unable to move, and watched Xiao Yongjia step in, step by step towards him, and finally stopped in front of him.

Her whole body was straight, her face was cold, and her eyes were like two digging hooks, chiseled into her body.

"Princess, what is the wind tonight, why did you blow me here..."

Zhu Jiyue finally calmed down with a smile on her face. Before she could say the last word "li", without warning, Xiao Yongjia on the opposite side raised her arm, and with a loud "snack", she slapped her. ear photons.

With the burning pain, Zhu Jiyue was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted, covering his side cheek, and said angrily: "Are you crazy? You dare to hit me—"

Before she could finish her sentence, there was another "pop", and the other side of Pang was hot again, and she ate another loud ear scraping.

Xiao Yongjia wore several rings on her fingers, and the hard metal scratched Zhu Jiyue's face. Although the skin was not scratched, there were also several deep red marks on her face, which were burning hot.

Zhu Jiyue has lived for more than 30 years, how has he ever suffered such a loss? Being slapped twice in a row, I couldn't help being angry, and I raised my hand subconsciously, waving the fan back towards the person opposite.

"Bitch, do you dare to touch my finger?"

Xiao Yongjia didn't dodge, just stared at her and said coldly.

Zhu Jiyue's hand stopped abruptly in the air, and did not dare to wave it down. After a while, it slowly fell, his face was red and white, and he reluctantly said: "Xiao Yongjia, this is my other residence, you broke in without authorization, What do you want?"

"Snapped"!

Another slap, which made Zhu Jiyue stand unsteady, staggered under his feet, and fell to the ground, his temples were scattered, and the cheek that had been slapped twice left five bright red swollen fingerprints, and the corners of his mouth were also slapped. A streak of blood slowly oozes out.

"Zhu Jiyue, if you touch my son-in-law of Xiao Yongjia, I'll give you a few slaps, just to teach you how to behave in the future!"

"I feel bad for hitting you!"

"Remember, if you let me know that there will be another time, it's not just a few slaps!"

"I, Xiao Yongjia, are useless, but it's more than enough to deal with a **** like you!"

After Xiao Yongjia finished speaking, he took out a pure white silk handkerchief, wiped his palm, which had also become slightly swollen, and threw it on the ground, without looking at Zhu Jiyue again, and turned away.

A pair of crested heads swayed between her temples, trembling with her steps, making a rustling sound.

Zhu Jiyue covered her swollen cheek, opened her eyes wide, stared at the back of the woman in front of her leaving, and suddenly sneered.

"Xiao Yongjia! You are nothing but an abandoned wife who is unhappy with your husband! What kind of prestige are you shaking in front of me? Do you know how others mock you behind your back? Yes, I am a slut, and my husband is not mine, But at least I'm having a good time! Look at yourself..."

She looked at Xiao Yongjia's back up and down with contemptuous eyes, made a tsk tsk, and shook her head.

"I'm dressed up in front of people, I'm afraid that at night, it's not enough to throw beans in the house and ask you to pick them up, right? You used your power, ruined my marriage, and took Gao Qiao, now what? He doesn't even touch you. In his eyes, you are nothing but an ignorant and jealous woman with a vicious heart! Apart from a false name, what else do you have left?"

Xiao Yongjia continued to walk out as if he had not heard it.

"If it wasn't for you, I would have married the Zhu family and the Gao family! You robbed Gao Qiao and made me marry the current wretch! You have harmed me for the rest of my life, and I have always tolerated you, but you are still going nowhere. Step by step, over the years, it has been targeting me everywhere!"

"Xiao Yongjia, your husband hates you because Shao Yuniang threw himself into the river. He doesn't agree with you. What do you blame me for? It's also God's eye, retribution! Let me see you down to where you are today! It's not just reporting to you. It also reported to your daughter! Come on, kill me if you have the ability! Otherwise, I'll just want to see your jokes! Laugh every day, laugh every year, laughing at how you will end up in this life!"

Zhu Jiyue laughed so hard that she laughed so hard that she was about to burst into tears.

Xiao Yongjia looked indifferent at first, but when he reached the door, he suddenly stopped and turned his head slowly.

"How do you know about Shao Yuniang?"

She stared at Zhu Jiyue on the ground and asked coldly.

Zhu Jiyue was startled, only to realize that he had lost his tongue, his face changed slightly, he couldn't deny it, he quickly suppressed the fear in his heart, and simply sneered: "How can I not know? Gao Qiao brought her back from the Northern Expedition, intending to accept her as a Concubine, but you are going to kill her, this Jiankang city, who doesn't know?"

Xiao Yongjia stood condensed, his face cold and blue, as if covered with a layer of mysterious ice.

That was sixteen or seventeen years ago.

Xiao Yongjia just married Gao Qiao for a few years and gave birth to Luoshen not long after. Gao Qiao's last northern expedition, when he came back, brought back a pair of Shaw brothers and sisters.

The Shaw family is also a big family in the north. In the early years, he did not move south in time, and he was not reused in the Hu people's regime, and his family was ruined. This pair of sisters and younger brothers is an offshoot of the Shaw Brothers, both parents have died, and they are dependent on others. When Gao Qiao's army arrived, he was injured by a stray arrow during the battle. Due to the hot weather at the time, his injury deteriorated for a while. Shao Fengzhi’s ancestor uploaded a spiritual medicine, and when he heard the news, he rushed to donate the medicine, and it really worked, and Gao Qiao’s injury was healed. The later Northern Expedition was unfavorable, and when the army returned to the south, the sister and brother also followed him south.

Xiao Yongjia is very grateful for the life-saving grace of the Shaw brothers and sisters to her husband. Seeing that Shao Yuniang came to Jiankang for the first time, she had nothing to rely on, and she was also sensible, Shuhui Zhenjing, who blushed after talking to outsiders for a few words. She was a little pretty, afraid that she would be bullied outside, so she was brought into the mansion and treated as a distinguished guest. And because she was only one year younger than him, but she was not yet married, she initially arranged for her to get married, but because she declined, she gave up.

After several months in this way, the prime minister was safe and sound, but Xiao Yongjia returned from the Jinshan Temple to worship Buddha and found that Shao Yuniang had actually left the house and disappeared. When asked, she was picked up by her brother.

Xiao Yongjia was very puzzled by her leaving so hastily, but she was not suspicious. It wasn't until a few days later that I heard the news. It was said that when she was living in the monastery that night, Gao Qiao returned home from a banquet, half drunk and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, there happened to be a servant passing by at night, and she faintly saw Shao Yuniang entering the house and came out soon after, and then the next morning. , her brother came to pick her up.

Xiao Yongjia became suspicious. Recalling that a few days ago, Aju had secretly reminded more than once that Shao Yuniang seemed to have coveted Gao Langjun, and told her to be careful, it is best to send her away. But Xiao Yongjia was careless, feeling that the woman was very serious, and she stayed at home all day, unlike such a person, she did not take it to heart.

Hearing such rumors at this moment, and thinking that the woman was walking strangely, he went to ask her husband.

Gao Qiao was reluctant to say at first, only that she was picked up by her brother, Xiao Yongjia repeatedly asked questions, and became furious.

It turned out that that night, when he returned from a banquet and slept alone, Shao Yuniang actually sneaked in to dedicate herself. After being rejected by Gao Qiao, she turned pale and cried on her knees, saying that she did the wrong thing out of admiration. , already aware of his regrets, and begged him not to tell the eldest princess about this.

Gao Qiao agreed, and asked her brother to pick her up quietly the next morning.

At that time, Xiao Yongjia was young and vigorous, and his eyes could not contain half a grain of sand.

People who treat each other with sincerity actually climb into their own beds to seduce their husbands.

She was furious, raised the sword on the spot, and was about to kill the woman, but was stopped by Gao Qiao who grabbed the sword, saying that the woman already knew her mistake and could not do more harm.

Although Xiao Yongjia has always been domineering, he has never really killed anyone. At that time, he was just extremely angry and impulsive. Seeing that her husband was protecting the slut, although she endured it at the time, her heart grew even more angry. Instead, she really wanted to kill, so she turned to go, but was dissuaded by Aju.

Aju said that since Gao Langjun was calm, he concealed it for Shao Yuniang at first, which shows that he was still thinking of the kindness of the Shao brothers and sisters. What's more, he has already taken the initiative to send people away. If the eldest princess kills her again, he is afraid that Gao Langjun will be dissatisfied and think that she is justified.

At that time, Xiao Yongjia was full of love for her husband, and was terrified by this sentence, so she had no choice but to dispel the idea, but how could the evil anger in her heart come out? When Gao Qiao was away, he ordered someone to drive the Shaw Brothers out of Jiankang, and ordered them to return to Jiangbei. They were not allowed to step into the Southern Dynasties again in this life.

This is how it used to be.

Unexpectedly, on the way to the ferry, an accident happened. A group of robbers showed up halfway. Shao Yuniang was taken captive.

The news still reached Gao Qiao's ears.

Gao Qiao was furious, accusing Xiao Yongjia of being narrow-minded and being too pushy, so much that he killed people.

Xiao Yongjia had a big quarrel with him, kicked him out of the house, and was not allowed to enter. It wasn't until half a year later that Gao Qiao took the initiative to admit his mistake and beg for good, Xiao Yongjia was relieved, and the two were in the same room again. After so many years, there have been many, many cracks, not only can't be eliminated, but more and more obvious.

It was not until a few years ago that Xiao Yongjia finally moved to Bailuzhou alone, and publicly separated from her husband until today.

She stared at Zhu Jiyue, and suddenly, a dark light flashed in the bottom of her eyes, as if she had an epiphany, and pressed towards her step by step.

"I kept the surname Shao a secret back then. You only knew her, how could you know that she threw herself into the river and died?"

At that time, Xiao Yongjia, the arrogant daughter of heaven, was proud of the spring breeze, and loved face very much. How could people know that her husband had two hearts with him because of another woman?

From the beginning to the end, things were kept very secret, including the fact that she sent someone to drive the sister and brother back to Jiangbei.

"Could it be that the robbers you arranged did that thing to separate my husband and wife?"

Her hands were clenched into fists, and her shoulders were shaking slightly.

Zhu Jiyue was extremely remorseful, and she only hated that she was quick to speak for a while, but she showed clues. There was a trace of panic in the bottom of his eyes, but he was still reluctantly calm: "If you want people to not know, you must do it yourself! There is no impermeable wall in the world. If you do something like that, it will spread out sooner or later! Why rely on me!"

Xiao Yongjia's face was ashen, he stood for a moment, suddenly bent down, picked up the long sword on the ground, and with a "clang", he drew the sword out of the sheath, the sharp sword tip pointed at Zhu Jiyue, and pressed towards her.

"Zhu Jiyue, let me ask you again, did you do that back then?"

Zhu Jiyue's eyes widened in shock: "Xiao Yongjia, are you crazy? You dare to kill me?"

Xiao Yongjia's hand tightly gripped the hilt of the sword, and a sullen look flashed in his eyes.

"I finally ask you, did you do it? Don't think I dare not kill you. Your husband's name is clan, but he's just a piece of trash. As for the Zhu family, he has to look up to the Gao family! I will kill you today. , report a mistake, the big deal is a fine and a ban, how can you take me?"

She gritted her teeth and pushed towards Zhu Jiyue step by step.

Zhu Jiyue showed fear, climbed up quickly from the ground, and kept retreating until she was blocked by the wall behind her, and there was no way to go.

"Xiao Yongjia, don't be a mad dog. If you catch someone, you will bite! Don't say that it had nothing to do with me at the beginning. You are relying on me and forced me to admit it. It's been so many years, what's the use?"

The tip of the sword was already approaching Zhu Jiyue's chest. She almost felt the chill, goosebumps all over her body, and her voice trembled.

"Gao Qiao was forced to marry you at first. In his eyes, you are a woman who is useless except for your identity! Domineering and do whatever you want! Do you think that if you tell him this now, he will believe you?"

Xiao Yongjia seemed to have suddenly been pulled out of something, and stopped, the evil spirit in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by a confused look.

The hand holding the sword was also stuck in the air, trembling slightly.

Zhu Jiyue watched her words and expressions, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, with a pleasing smile on her face.

"Eldest Princess, I know it's my fault this time. I shouldn't have been confused for a while and actually offended your son-in-law. Don't worry, I won't look at him again from now on..."

She said that, her eyes fixed on the tip of the sword, and she moved cautiously to the side. Suddenly, when Xiao Yongjia was unprepared, she rushed over to grab the sword in her hand, but unexpectedly, because she was too focused on her upper body , the foot was caught by the skirt that dragged the ground, and the body suddenly lost balance and staggered.

In the scream, she fell forward, her eyes widened, and two white spots that were rapidly approaching were reflected in her pupils.

"Pfft" with a dull sound.

The sharp sword tip slanted into Zhu Jiyue's throat and came out through his neck.

Zhu Jiyue fell to the ground silently, with a sword slanted around his neck, his eyes were round and staring at Xiao Yongjia, his eyes were full of unbelievable hatred and fear.

She didn't believe it, she was just like this, going to die?

Xiao Yongjia's five fingers slowly released the hilt of the sword, looking at Zhu Jiyue who was struggling and twisting under his feet, his expression was blank.

…

After a stick of incense, Li Mu rushed to Gao Xuan, pushed the door open, and saw this scene.

There was a musky smell mixed with blood in the air, almost disgusting.

There was a look of surprise in his eyes, and he quickly came to Xiao Yongjia's side. Seeing her sitting there, her face was pale and her eyes were dull.

Zhu Jiyue, who was on the ground, slanted a sword in his neck, and the wound was bleeding slowly. The blood had already flowed all over the ground. Seeing that he could not survive, but because he had not completely pierced his trachea, he was still not completely dead at this moment.

Her eyes were wide open, her eyes were scattered, her blood-filled lips were slightly open, like a dying fish on a sword in a dry pool, her appearance was extremely terrifying.

Li Mu immediately helped Xiao Yongjia, handed her over to Sun Fangzhi outside the door, and whispered a few words.

Sun Fangzhi nodded, and quickly went downstairs to protect Xiao Yongjia, who was almost lost.

Li Mu turned back to the house, came to Zhu Jiyue's side, crouched down and looked down.

Zhu Jiyue struggled, and took a breath again, her lips kept moving silently, her eyes fixed on Li Mu, and a crystal tear came out of her eyes, full of pity for survival.

Li Mu and her looked at each other, took a white handkerchief on the ground, put it on her **** neck, stretched out his hand, and put it on gently.

His hand suddenly became stronger.

With a slight crack of a broken joint, Zhu Jiyue's head tilted to one side, and the last trace of vitality in his eyes disappeared.

Li Mu withdrew his hands, his eyes had no waves, and he covered her eyes, and then calmly pulled out the long sword stuck in her neck, covered the corpse with his clothes, then stood up straight, looked around, and walked across the ground. Messy cups and plates, walked out.

At the entrance of the stairs, a man who looked like a leader of the guards rushed up, holding a blood-stained knife in his hand. Sun Fangzhi was chasing after him, and when he saw Li Mu, he shouted: "The rest are all obeyed, but this person is disobedient, extremely fierce, just injured. Got a brother!"

The head of the guard was also one of Zhu Jiyue's servants under the skirt. He had just gotten away with the maid, and then he realized that something was wrong and led people to come.

He took a few steps up the stairs, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he swung a knife at Li Mu.

Li Mu held the hilt with his five fingers, and at the end, a cold light flashed across the man's neck, as if a line had been drawn, and a straight black fine print instantly appeared.

The red liquid slowly seeped out from the black line, and then, the flesh was quickly rushing to the blood, opening a huge opening, like opening a huge mouth.

The man fell to the ground.

When Li Mu left, behind him, a raging flame ignited. The fire light illuminated the way, almost reddening the night sky in the eastern suburbs outside the city.

…

It was early in the morning, and Luoshen felt restless.

After Li Mu made a decision for her, he stayed.

But for some reason, my mother never came back. Later, he said that he would pick it up in person and told her to sleep in peace first.

How can Luo Shen sleep? Although Aju was with her, she kept her eyes open in the room, and finally couldn't help getting up, disregarding Aju's advice, dressed and went upstairs, leaning against the window, looking at the direction of the ferry.

Jiang Wu was thicker than before. There is some way to the ferry, and from the window, the night sky is confused and confused, except for a cold mist flowing quietly, nothing can be seen.

She was worried, she was about to go down, and waited near the door. Suddenly, she heard a movement on the corridor below the building in the direction of the door. Looking down, she saw that someone was coming, and hurried down. On the platform, run over to meet you.

Xiao Yongjia returned and was helped in by someone.

Luo Shen was surprised when he saw his mother.

Her face was pale, her lips were blue, her eyes were dull and dull, and she looked like she was in a state of dismay.

It was the first time that Luoshen had seen her like this since she was a child.

She quickly glanced behind her mother's group, but did not see Li Mu.

"Auntie! What's wrong with you?"

She went up and grabbed her mother's hand. She felt her hands, icy cold.

Xiao Yongjia shook his head, smiled reluctantly at his daughter, and said in a low voice, "I'm fine."

Aju was also quite surprised, and hurried forward to support Xiao Yongjia.

"The eldest princess is tired, let's go back to the house first."

Luoshen knew something was different, but it was not easy to ask again after seeing this, so he hurriedly sent her back to the house and settled down.

Xiao Yongjia seemed to be extremely tired. As soon as he lay down, he closed his eyes and remained motionless, as if he had fallen asleep.

Luoshen has been accompanying his mother by the bedside.

The surroundings were quiet, she looked at her mother's sleeping face, guessed Li Mu's whereabouts, gradually became extremely tired, lay beside her mother, and fell asleep in a daze.

She didn't know how long she had slept, but she woke up suddenly, and unexpectedly found that she was lying on her mother's bed, covered with a quilt.

But the mother was gone.

She quickly got up and called someone.

The maid enters.

She asked what time it was, and then where did her mother go.

The maid said, Yin Shi.

Just now, Li Langjun returned, and the eldest princess was talking to him.

…

Xiao Yongjia sat on the couch, and Li Mu faced each other and sat in the starting position.

Lights jump. Xiao Yongjia's complexion looked better than when he had just returned, but it still had a light gray color.

Since Li Mu came in, she has been looking at him like this, without blinking her eyes, for a long time, and asked, "She is dead?"

Li Mu nodded.

Xiao Yongjia closed his eyes. After a while, he opened it and said, "I killed people. I'll go to the palace tomorrow morning to plead guilty. I won't mention where you've been. Ami..."

She paused.

"Take it with you. Later..."

She emphasized her tone: "If you dare to offend her, I will not spare you!"

Li Mudao: "Thank you mother-in-law for being perfect. I will treat Ami kindly in the future. But don't worry, my mother-in-law is probably thinking too much. Tonight, everything is due to me, and the blame lies entirely with me. After you left, people will still be alive, and they will be What I killed, the follow-up has also been arranged. I have nothing to do with my mother-in-law, and my mother-in-law does not know, and I have never left the island tonight. "

Xiao Yongjia was startled and hesitated.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Mother-in-law remembers my words. Your Majesty has a hangover, and it's too late to get up today. Father-in-law has been waiting to meet His Majesty. After seeing His Majesty and discussing things, I expect he will come here too. Rest in peace."

He bowed respectfully to Xiao Yongjia, got up and walked out.

Xiao Yongjia looked at the back of his departure, his eyes were confused, as if settled.

…

Luoshen was waiting outside the house, feeling uneasy in his heart. After a while, when he saw the door open, Li Mu's increasingly familiar figure appeared at the door. He hurried up and asked him, "What happened tonight? What did my mother say?"

Li Mu looked down at her little face with a slight blue eye circle due to anxiety all night, smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Nothing. Just now, my mother-in-law answered my request and allowed me to pick you up."

Luoshen stayed for a while.

What she was worried about, her mother's tough attitude like a rock, could be solved so easily?

There was a little bit of joy in my heart slowly, but it was unbelievable.

She couldn't help going inside, wanting to hear what her mother had to say for herself, and before she took a step, Li Muyi grabbed her hand, took her, and turned back.

"Your mother is tired and needs to rest. There is still some time before dawn, and I am also tired. Take me to sleep."

Luo Shen felt that something big must have happened that night, and the mother would be so complacent when she came back.

But they don't say it.

Fortunately, it seems that there is no major problem.

She raised her eyes and met the eyes he was looking at her with, thinking of his last words that were probably unintentional, her face was slightly warm, she lowered her eyes, and gave a soft hum.

"Come with me."
