Chapter 450: Rest
Everything in the Feng Bath is as before, the central pool is still filled with white mist, but there are no male pets and female guests passing through it, making it look a bit deserted.
Zhu Yan walked over slowly, looking at the familiar scenery in front of him. The iconic smile on his lips disappeared little by little, until his eyes completely lost their sparkle, and he slowly opened the familiar elegant room.
It was still the same luxurious eight-step bed, covered with soft bedding. On the imperial concubine's couch next to it, there was also the emerald green jade ruyi. Zhu Yan stood blankly at the door for a while, and then
Sighing silently, he stepped in. The private room was still burning with the kind of rose fragrance that Si Niang liked. Even the half-moon-shaped low table in front of him was covered with her favorite desserts and fruits. He slightly raised his lips with a smile.
, he casually took a grape and stuffed it into his mouth. The juice, which was obviously sweet, had a strange bitterness at the moment, making him spit it out all at once.
"Sir Zhu Yan..." A low voice came from the door. Yan'er, who had just changed her clothes, stood nervously and embarrassed, not daring to come in. Zhu Yan sat on the bed, looking at her in a delicate pink dress, which made her look beautiful.
The skin became even whiter, and suddenly the pale and bloody face appeared in front of her eyes. Zhu Yan's face suddenly became a little ugly. Yan'er cautiously took a step forward and stood there not knowing what to do.
Zhu Yan thought about it in his mind, waved to her and asked, "Why haven't I seen you before? Are you new here?"
Yan'er just nodded in agreement and didn't dare to say anything else. Zhu Yan suddenly felt bored and pointed to the imperial concubine's couch next to him and ordered: "Sit down."
Yan'er sat down obediently, and Zhu Yan picked a grape and handed it over, asking, "Have a taste."
She had no choice but to do as she was told. Yile Pavilion was also a famous romantic place in the imperial capital. Although there had been some troubles before, they had been settled by the mercurial mother Lan for so long. These grapes were bought from Yudu.
The treasures are only displayed when entertaining distinguished guests. A mouthful of the sweet juice in the throat is as refreshing as nectar. Zhu Yan looked at her satisfied expression with interest, but he sneered sternly and asked lightly: "Sweet
?"
"Well, it's sweet, you can try it too." Yan'er didn't know what he meant. Zhu Yan shook his head and threw all the remaining grapes to her, saying, "But I taste sour and bitter. If you like it, then
you eat."
Yan'er was startled and immediately put down the grapes in her hand. She saw that Zhu Yan was lying on the luxurious eight-step bed without even taking off his shoes. He spread his arms and stared at the ceiling, not knowing whether
He was talking to someone and murmured: "How did you get sold to Yile Pavilion?"
"Me?" Yan'er pointed to herself, not daring to hide it, "I was sold here by Madam Ya several months ago. Madam Ya didn't know what happened during that time, but she sold all the girls under her."
"Zhao Ya?" Zhu Yan's heart moved and he couldn't help but want to laugh. Zhao Ya, that beautiful snake, saw Gao Chengchuan dead and wanted to sell these women and run away. If she had run away then, maybe she would have run away now.
It was safe. However, he refused to give up and followed Gao Zhanping to gamble on this coup. As expected, he failed again. He sighed and shook his head. Suddenly he became interested and moved to the side to signal Yan'er to come over and turn over.
He pinned her down.
Zhu Yan stared at her for a long time, looking a little dazed. Frankly speaking, this delicate face was completely different from Yun Xiao's cold and cold face. The eyes that looked at him were trembling uncontrollably. There was nothing but fear.
other.
Afraid... Why are you afraid? Before that woman died, there was no look of fear in her eyes.
Suddenly feeling a strong nausea, Zhu Yan held his throat and retched. His sudden movement made Yan'er under him even more nervous, and her whole body began to tremble slightly. Zhu Yan stared at her coldly,
Annoyed, he grabbed the pillow and covered Yan'er's face. He didn't actually look at her face. This tall and thin figure looked very similar to Yun Xiao. He sat up and slowly uncovered the clothes on his chest.
Seeing his snow-white chest rising and falling violently due to fear, he felt an urgent impulse in his mind, forcing him to bend down and put his ear close to his chest to listen quietly to the heartbeat.
It's different. Even if the face is covered and the figure is similar, the unique heartbeat sound is impossible for others to have.
Zhu Yan held up his arms in despair, feeling distracted. Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the flickering candlelight on the low table. He sat upright, stared blankly at the candlelight, stretched out his fingers and placed them on the flame - burning
The sting of burning came immediately. Although it was weak, it made him feel ecstatic. Zhu Yan pointed a knife and cut off a small section of the candle along with the flame. He carefully held the palm of his hand and pressed his other hand on Yan'er.
On the chest, he pinched it with great force!
A heart-rending wail came from the private room, causing everyone in Yile Pavilion to stop their movements and not dare to speak out.
Zhu Yan ignored the struggling woman beneath him. He used only one hand to make Yan'er collapse on the bed like a puddle of mud, unable to move at all. From the chest that was torn apart with his bare hands, blood instantly filled the bed like a spring.
Mat, he still carefully dragged the candle in his hand, pulling the wound bigger and more obvious, and used his spiritual power to protect the beating heart from dying quickly, and the flame was put into his heart, Zhu
Yan was ecstatic and quickly squeezed and pressed the wound, then bent down again and put his ears up to listen carefully.
The heart was beating so violently, with the breath of fire that he couldn't suppress. He didn't lift the pillow cover on Yan'er's face, but kissed her hard through the gauze scarf. The woman underneath him was twitching violently.
, just like Yun Xiao who suffered from severe pain due to blood rejection that day, he desperately held down her hands and feet to prevent her from moving. After an unknown amount of time, until he could no longer feel the heat in his heart, Zhu Yan could
Stopped panting.
He looked coldly at the woman under him who would never move again. He almost subconsciously wanted to touch the Emperor Wa's Sword before continuing to stab the two fatal swords. The moment he touched the hilt of the sword, he suddenly trembled - the Emperor Wa's Sword was there.
In the previous battle at Xingluo Lake, Zhu Yan was cut into two pieces by Gu Chen. Zhu Yan was stunned for a moment and suddenly woke up.
He walked down from the bed and sat on the concubine's couch next to him. Regardless of the blood on his hands, he picked up the grapes and stuffed them into his mouth one by one. Until he ate the last grape, he still felt that his mouth was dry and his chest was heavy.
.
He pushed open the closed window and let the sunlight outside shine on the bloody eight-step bed. The bright red mixed with the woman's white body reflected the dazzling light, making Zhu Yan look as if he was lost in thought.
for a long time.
Suddenly thinking of the person he buried deep under the desert, the woman who would never see the light of day again, Zhu Yan rubbed his forehead and chuckled, he shouldn't have done anything to Yun Xiao, even if he could destroy all the evidence,
Even if he can make Xiao Qianye never find her again, killing Yun Xiao will not do him any good. Now that all the high-ranking officials and powerful officials are trying their best to curry favor with him, why would he destroy himself for a woman?
In the future, he might even offend Emperor Tianzun and bring disaster to himself?
But...but he just couldn't control it. He wanted to get her and destroy her. Even if there was no benefit at all, he wanted to kill her with his own hands!
Bullying women? It turns out that he is just a bully.
"Haha...haha." Zhu Yan stood up unsteadily. It was clear that he had suffered more inhumane sufferings than her, and he was also an innocent person. Just because she was a woman, she was Pavilion Master Xiao's.
Sweetheart, so the same thing can't happen again to her?
This world is inherently unfair, and he just wants those lucky ones who are born with golden keys in their mouths to experience pain and despair.
What other reason is needed? He has already been killed anyway. He is a person who has walked out of hell. He is nothing more than going back to hell again.
Zhu Yan pushed the door open and came face to face with Ah Ling, whose face was pale with fright. He casually wiped the blood from his hand, returned to his usual gentle smile and walked over. He slowly squatted down in front of Ah Ling and looked directly at her.
Looking at the other person's frightened eyes that were out of focus, he laughed and said: "Ah Ling, I should thank you. If you hadn't pulled her up and ran up, I might not have met her. I really like her very much.
So thank you very much."
Ah Ling remained motionless, his back straight. He had already seen the miserable situation in the private room in front of him. He gritted his teeth, knowing that he could not scream at this time. Zhu Yan touched his cheek with approval and gave a faint instruction.
He said, "Go and pack it up. I'll find someone to send the money to Mother Lan later."
He walked to the dressing area of the Feng Bath alone, slowly washed away the blood all over his body, changed into a pair of clean white clothes, and sat there quietly for a long time, until the sunlight outside began to weaken and the sunset spread far away from the horizon.
Like a flame, it hurts the eyes.
Walking from the phoenix bath to the lobby again, Mother Lan greeted her enthusiastically with the same smiling face, as if she had no idea about everything that happened during the day. Zhu Yan didn't mention it much. He had been in a daze all day, but now he felt
I was a little tired, but when I thought about the patrol boats being chopped into pieces, I had to turn around and sighed: "Mother Lan, I will sleep at your place tonight. There should be a free room, right?"
Lan's mother's cheek twitched obviously, but she didn't dare to offend him, so she could only shake her fan and nodded. Zhu Yan found a place to sit down at random. Before he could pour a glass of water to relieve the dry cough in his throat, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the door.
A small figure walked in, and Mother Lan immediately threw him away and rushed towards him. Zhu Yan looked over curiously, his eyes trembled violently, and he looked at that person in disbelief - the third princess.
?Why did Princess Longyue from the Sixth Prince's residence come to Yile Pavilion at this time?
He poured the water calmly. The third princess was the apple of the eye of the Sixth Prince. In terms of blood relationship, she was the cousin of Emperor Tianzun. His Majesty loved her more than his own siblings. The third princess had been favored and arrogant since childhood.
, can be regarded as a character that no one dares to mess with in this imperial capital.
