I slowly raised my head and looked at him, with a cold and sharp look: "You told me before that if this child cannot be preserved, people from Yangzhou will be buried with you; but if someone wants to harm me and the child in my womb, this matter will not count, right?"
“…”
"If this is the case, you'll say it earlier," I suddenly smiled: "Isn't that going to save trouble?"
"Light!"
He raised his voice and called my name.
I have cleaned up enough for him in the past. As long as his face darkened and his tone became heavy, I was worried that someone would be dragged out to kill in front of me. The lives of people in Yangzhou City made me unable to sleep or eat. But now, it seems like a rare time when I can be proud. Even if he calls me this name, I have nothing to worry about.
On the contrary, he, under my smiling gaze, had a little pain in his eyes.
He said, "You know I didn't mean that."
"I don't know what you mean, I just want to know who wants to harm me and who wants to harm the child in my belly."
“…”
My eyes looked at the sign in his hand with a burning look: "If you don't tell me, it doesn't matter if you want to shelter this person, but don't threaten me with the lives of others, let alone threaten me with the lives of people in Yangzhou. After all, - only a thousand years of thieves are thieves, but a thousand years of thieves. How could I know if one day, it's not that I can't find the medicine, but that the medicine I found is wrong. Then my child is not dead unfairly?"
“…”
"Wouldn't the people in Yangzhou be even more unfair?"
“…”
"If I am not careful and have one corpse and two lives, then when I go to the underworld, who should I sue and who should I hate?"
"Stop talking!"
His eyes turned red slightly by my words, as if he had seen that scene happening, and his hand clenched into a fist.
I looked at him, closed my mouth very "obediently", slowly leaned back to the head of the bed, and closed my eyes slightly.
The room immediately fell into a nearly suffocating silence.
Although he didn't speak, I could feel his breathing heavy, as if he was carrying a heavy burden, which made the atmosphere in the whole room feel heavy. After a long time, he finally raised his head, but did not look at me, but turned to Han Ruoshi who had been standing in the corner with a pale face. After hesitating for a long time, he finally slowly raised his hand and showed the sign in his hand to Han Ruoshi.
I also saw that it was an iron plate with a strange shape with a big word "Ling" on it.
There is no other decoration, or even any record of identity or detailed orders. If it falls into the hands of other people, at most you will know that this is a token, but where it comes from and what origin is, it is afraid it will be difficult to find out.
But Pei Yuanxiu put the token directly facing Han Ruoshi and said word by word: "Is this your token?"
Han Ruoshi's face was pale, as if she had been frozen into ice.
Pei Yuanxiu continued: "You have your own power in Jinling, I know."
“…”
"Those people have been following you, and I know."
“…”
"This is your token to command them."
“…”
"Ruoshi, you speak."
Han Ruoshi shivered slightly. Although she didn't have to worry about this man turning against her and killing her, she could still feel the trembling aura at this moment, almost piercing her thin body, making her whole soul leave her body.
When she spoke, her voice kept trembling: "Yuan Xiu, I--"
"You don't need to explain, answer my question first."
“…”
“Yes and no.”
“…”
"Ruoshi, you answer me."
“…”
This time, Han Ruoshi probably understood that it was impossible for him to escape, and finally said as if he had accepted his fate: "Yes!"
Pei Yuanxiu took a breath.
I could feel his breath, from hot to cold, only a moment, and he didn't speak anymore, but his eyes were like a knife, looking at Han Ruoshi hard, almost piercing the human body. Han Ruoshi didn't know whether it was fear or despair, but at this time he took two steps in a row, and his back hit the cold wall, making a dull "bang".
The collision seemed to have woken her up. She calmed down a little bit and hurriedly said, "Yuan Xiu, listen to my explanation!"
"Okay, you explain."
He said in a deep voice: "You're the best, you can explain it to me."
After saying this, his hands slowly drooped, his fingers loosened, and the heavy iron plate fell to the ground, shaking slightly on the ground with a clang.
I looked down and saw that the iron plate was bent by him!
Han Ruoshi also saw this scene and opened her eyes wide. She shuddered for a moment. Pei Yuanxiu stepped forward and approached her and said, "You'd better explain why you want to kill your own people."
“…”
"You'd better explain why all the medicines for pregnancy were taken away by your people."
“…”
"You should remember, I told you a long time ago, what is my bottom line."
“…”
"Touch her, just touch me!"
“…”
"Now, you explain."
Every time he said something, Han Ruoshi's body twitched, and I leaned on the bed, holding my wrist with the hand that grabbed me even harder. At this moment, I felt like my wrist was about to be crushed by myself. I saw Han Ruoshi leaning against the wall, her face pale, as if a helpless person was about to be forced into a desperate situation by fate.
Suddenly, she became weak and fainted.
Pei Yuanxiu frowned, and as soon as he saw her back slid down against the wall, he immediately took a step forward and reached out to support her.
Han Ruoshi had completely lost consciousness at this moment and fell softly into his arms.
Pei Yuanxiu was also at a loss, patted her face gently, and shook her shoulders again: "Ruoshi?Ruoshi, wake up."
Seeing Han Ruoshi holding an innocent broken doll in his arms, soft and soft look as if he would be crushed after touching it again, I slowly supported myself and got out of bed. When Pei Yuanxiu heard the voice on my side, he hurriedly turned around and said, "Light, don't move."
But I didn't listen to him, and slowly walked over, looked down at the pale face, and then smiled.
“This is so interesting.”
“…”
"I am a pregnant woman, I was taken around by someone. I didn't faint without taking a sip of medicine for a few days. Why did she faint faster than me?"
When Pei Yuanxiu heard me say this, his face darkened, he looked down at her, and I squatted down and pinched Han Ruoshi's people.
No response.
