The maid said in a lost voice: "Princess, Princess Anguo, she was killed!"
What?!
As soon as these words were said, the entire hall froze. Hundreds of people lost their reaction in an instant, without even a sound. Everyone stared at the maid who was about to collapse to the ground after saying this sentence in disbelief.
It was like a thunder thunder blew up from the top of the head.
I just felt confused and couldn't believe my ears. Looking at the maid, it seemed like one of the two maids who had just held a copper basin and said they wanted to deliver hot water to the princess and the prince-consort.
But what she said has completely lost my ability to react.
What did she say?!
Princess - Princess Anguo -
Pei Yuanzhen, was killed?!
Killed?!
Killed...
The thunder seemed to be circling in my mind, deafening. I was even shocked and lost my mind. I couldn't even think about what happened to "Princess Anguo was killed". I just sat there blankly, and for a moment, my hands and feet were cold.
At this time, a crisp "pop" sounded in the quiet hall.
It seemed as if this sound interrupted my thoughts in chaos. I suddenly looked up and saw Pei Yuanhao sitting in the main seat. He stood up suddenly, brushed his sleeves across the table, swept the wine glass on the table directly to the ground, and smashed it to pieces.
His face turned pale, and the sound of his opening seemed to have quenched ice: "Where is the princess?"
The maid got up and got up and knelt on the ground: "Just in the bridal chamber!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked over.
I sat on the chair and watched his back disappear behind the shaking bead curtain. Before I could react, Pei Yuanfeng also got up and followed with a blue face. Xiao Yusheng beside him walked the fastest; and at this moment, one hand grabbed my wrist with force. I turned around and saw that it was Pei Yuanxiu next to me. He frowned and said, "Let's go and see it too."
"……Um."
I stood up by him, and he also pulled me over.
When I passed through the bead curtain, the sound of the beads hitting me rang in my ears until I was pulled by Pei Yuanxiu to the corridor of the back garden. When I felt the night wind blowing cold, it was still echoing constantly. The road ahead became strange and twisted, and the lanterns under the eaves kept swaying with the wind, making all the light and shadow dark and unpredictable, and even a little strange and unpredictable.
But soon, as we walked past the arch, a large area of light appeared in front of us.
The servants and maids all lit lanterns and candles and gathered outside the door. Although there were many people, there was no sound of coughing and wheezing. Everyone held their breath, and the swaying lights shone on the pale and terrified faces, making this moment look more depressing and heavy.
Pei Yuanfeng, who was walking in front of us, staggered when he entered the door and almost fell to the ground. When Pei Yuanxiu was led over, my feet tripped on the threshold and almost fell.
Because the moment I entered the door, a strong smell of blood came towards me.
The smell of blood is too familiar. Not only in my past memories, life, but also in my dreams, I couldn't walk away. When I smelled the strong smell of blood, a black fog seemed to rise in front of me, and I wanted to roll me back to those unbearable years.
Fortunately, one hand came across and held me.
I raised my head in panic and met Pei Yuanxiu's quiet gaze. He looked at me without saying anything. He just held my wrist and hands that were protecting my waist and used some force to cheer me up and stand firm.
Then, I walked into the room with him.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a red spot.
This is their bridal chamber, which is arranged happily. The door is red, the wall is covered with the word "Red" on the incense table in the hall, the red tablecloth is covered with two bright red candles, the carpet on the ground is red, and a bright bead curtain is hanging on one side of the hall. Inside the bead curtain is the bedroom, which is also bright red, bright red window paper, bright red bed curtains, and even the brocade quilt on the bed is red...
The only pale in the room was sitting on the ground, Liu Qinghan's face.
His face was never as pale as it was now, as if there was no trace of blood, as if all the blood in his body was shed, almost like the cold mask on his face, and what he was holding was a bright red man.
Pei Yuanzhen!
She was wearing a bright red wedding dress, with a blushing rouge on her face. Her white jade-like left hand was covered with her chest, and a sharp short knife was pierced deeply into her chest, turning it into a blood hole. Although she was wearing a bright red wedding dress, the blood flowed down, dyeing her wedding dress even more red, and even a large area of the floor under her was dyed red.
How much blood will it take to shed to make it happen?
Seeing this scene, I was completely stunned, especially when I saw Liu Qinghan slowly raising his head and looking at us with his godless eyes, I even forgot to breathe.
"this……"
I was trembling, but I couldn't say anything.
Pei Yuanzhen was killed! He was killed in his bridal chamber?!
Why is this happening? Who killed her in her bridal chamber on her wedding night on her happy day?!
At this moment, my whole thoughts were confused. I subconsciously raised my head and looked at the people around me. Pei Yuanhao, who was standing in front of Liu Qinghan, had a blue face and his teeth were tightly clenched. I could even hear the sound of his teeth clattering, but he didn't say a word, and just clenched his fists hard, and the veins on the back of his hand swelled, making his knuckles turn white.
Pei Yuanfeng, who followed him into the bridal chamber, seemed a little confused. He even rushed to Pei Yuanzhen at this moment and reached out to find her breath. When his hand reached under Pei Yuanzhen's nose, in just a short moment, I felt his whole body collapse.
At this time, Xue Muhua, who was following him, also squatted down and reached out to touch Pei Yuanzhen's neck.
Then, her voice was a little hoarse and choked, and she said softly: "Yuanfeng, don't need to be touched."
Pei Yuanfeng looked up at her, his eyes full of blood.
"She, she has-"
Before she finished speaking, she could no longer bear to say anything. She only stretched out her hand to hold Pei Yuanfeng's arm and wanted to pull him up, but Pei Yuanfeng still refused to believe it. She only stared at Pei Yuanzhen, who was lying in a pool of blood, and was still covered with blood. The pale face under the cover of rouge, was still stained with blood.
He stretched out his hand, and his slender and powerful fingers trembled, slowly touching Pei Yuanzhen's face.
The blood, before it dried up, soon dyed his fingers red.
He shouted, "Won-jin?"
“…”
No one answered him.
"Yuanzhen?"
He wanted to reach out to wipe the blood from her face, but when his hand touched Pei Yuanzhen's face again, he could not move, not knowing whether he felt the stimulation of the blood or the cold skin, but he could not move. He only looked at Pei Yuanzhen's pale face and tears fell from his eyes.
Xue Muhua hurriedly hugged him with his back hand and whispered: "Yuanfeng."
Pei Yuanfeng could no longer speak. I heard him suppressing himself with force, and a giggling sound came from his throat, as if he wanted to cry, but he could not cry. But when Xue Muhua hugged him, tears fell into her dark hair and disappeared suddenly.
This is their sister, the only sister.
Their brothers died and scattered. Now they have been in power and stand opposite each other. Only this sister's marriage can bring them back, but the only sister died tragically on the wedding night. No one can bear the heart-wrenching pain.
Pei Yuanfeng's eyes turned red, but he didn't say a word, just staring at Pei Yuanzhen's body.
Looking at the beautiful but pale corpse, I felt a hot heat surge from the bottom of my heart, and I hurriedly closed my eyes. At this time, I felt Pei Yuanxiu beside me reaching out to hold my shoulders and gently hugging me into my arms.
Behind us, some princes, princes, officials, and nobles have arrived here. The originally spacious new house is completely unable to be squeezed out at this moment. The halls of the house are full of people, and even the doors are crowded. However, so many people are here, they cannot even hear any sound. Everyone holds their breath, looking at the blood-red scene in the inner room with a little panic and fear.
The eldest princess Pei Yuanzhen was killed in her bridal chamber on her wedding night!
Just when everyone was so quiet that they dared not make any sound, a low, hoarse voice sounded with a bit of uncontrollable anger—
"What's going on?!"
This was not said loudly, but at this moment it seemed like a thunderclap, which made everyone tremble.
I looked up and saw Pei Yuanhao standing there, speaking heavily.
He didn't look at anyone, and there was no light in his dark eyes, as if a heavy haze was covered with. The remaining one of the two maids who had been kneeling on the ground at this moment, his whole body was kneeling on the ground, his thin shoulders kept twitching, and he said tremblingly: "I, I don't know..."
“…”
"When I came, I saw the prince consort and the princess..."
“…”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty forgives your crimes. I really don't know anything."
Looking at the maid kowtowing desperately, I felt horrified and unbearable for a moment, but there was still deeper uneasiness surging-
Where is Miaoyan? I haven’t seen Miaoyan as I have just walked along the way!
Pei Yuanhao's thick eyebrows were furrowed together, and his eyebrows were almost twisted into a lump, and his eyes were filled with indescribable cruelty, but he did not immediately ask Liu Qinghan, but asked, "Who else is there in this room?"
The maid raised her head and looked at Pei Yuanhao with tears on her face, and she choked and said, "I didn't see it--"
Before she could finish her words, she suddenly heard a very soft sound from a corner of the bed.
Suddenly, everyone in the bridal chamber was shocked. The guards behind Pei Yuanhao rushed forward immediately, stopped him, and said vigilantly: "Be careful!"
"Who?!"
"Beware of the assassin!"
However, after the sound was made, there was no movement.
The guards looked at each other, not knowing what happened. Two of them looked at each other, then pulled out the long sword at their waists and walked up slowly. Just as they walked to the corner and saw the scene inside, both of them were stunned.
"ah?"
"this--"
They stared inside with wide eyes, and seemed to have lost their reaction for a moment. Pei Yuanhao frowned and said in a deep voice: "What's going on?!"
The two of them looked back and one seemed to have a look at me.
"Your Majesty, is it—————————————————”
"It's Princess Miaoyan."
My heart suddenly jumped, and I couldn't even speak, so I rushed up.
I saw that in the corner of the bed, where the bed curtains were covered layer by layer, Miaoyan held hands and held them against her chest. Her face was pale and her eyes were wide open, but there was no spirit inside, as if there was a pool of stagnant water, only completely darkness left, and it seemed to be covered with a layer of smoke that was blinded by the mind, and the thick could not be dispersed.
