Suddenly, a ruin with a strong smell of blood and pungent smoke appeared in front of me.
She covered her nose, frowned, and wanted to leave when she accidentally stepped on something. She looked down and saw that from the vague outline it seemed to be a plaque.
She originally wanted to ignore it and leave, but she was inexplicably suppressed by a pressure, forcing her to squat down and check the plaque.
It would have been better if she hadn't looked at it. Once she did, she was so frightened that her blood turned pale and she fell down in panic.
He instinctively stepped back, and in the cold moonlight, he suddenly saw the only character "Du" left on the plaque.
There is only one family with the surname Du in the capital, and there is only one family with the surname Du in such a large area of ruins.
Qiu Zhen stood up in panic and was about to escape.
However, the moment she turned around, men and women with disheveled hair and dressed in white walked out of the darkness.
A strong stench filled the air, and she could clearly hear the crunching sound of bones grinding.
This sound is...
Qiu Zhen watched in horror as those people in white trembled and walked towards her. Some were crawling on the ground, some were floating in the air without a head, and some were waving their arms and swaying left and right...
The cries became clearer and clearer, filling her ears. Qiu Zhen was completely frightened by this scene, and watched them open their bloody mouths to swallow her.
A scream of "Ah..." completely pulled Qiu Zhen back from the nightmare.
She was gasping for breath, stroking her chest. When she came to her senses and realized it was a nightmare, she was so frightened that she started crying.
"No, don't come to me. I didn't mean to do that. I really didn't mean to do that. Dad, I beg you, don't come to me. If you want to blame someone, blame you for abandoning us mother and daughter. If you want to blame someone, blame her, Du Yunge, for always suppressing me. If you want to blame someone, blame your Du Mansion for making people jealous. Don't come to me, don't come to me..."
In the darkness, someone suddenly let out a mocking laugh.
As soon as the voice came out, Qiu Zhen instantly froze on the bed. Her already trembling body was now shaking like a sieve. She slowly raised her tear-stained pale face, her hair dishevelled, and looked around in panic: "Who is it? Who's there?"
Just when Qiu Zhen thought that all this was an illusion, a woman in red with straight black hair and a ghostly face walked out step by step from the darkness.
When Qiu Zhen saw the woman's face clearly, she opened her mouth wide, her eyes almost popped out of her mouth, and she couldn't even close her mouth: "Du, Du Yunge?"
When her gaze fell from her beautiful face to the red dress she was wearing, Qiu Zhen felt her head buzzing and completely exploded. Wasn't that the phoenix robe that Du Yunge was wearing when she died?
She, is she really Du Yunge?
"Heh..., after not seeing you for a few years, you haven't changed at all. Sister, look at my face, has it changed?"
The woman in red slowly stroked her ghostly face. Suddenly, she pierced her sharp nails into her flesh and peeled it off bit by bit in front of Qiu Zhen. While peeling, she smiled strangely with her charming red lips.
"Sister, do you know how much pain it hurts? His dagger pierced my chest, leaving a huge bloody hole. Look, that's it!"
As she spoke, the woman in red suddenly pulled out a dagger that was gleaming with cold light and stabbed it into her own chest without mercy. The splattering blood was hot and instantly spilled all over the ground. Qiu Zhen's pupils contracted and his face was filled with fear.
"You, don't come over here, don't come over here, I beg you, don't come over here, don't come over here!"
Qiu Zhen's crying did not affect the woman in red at all. She kept fiddling with her bloody body as if she was talking about today's weather in a relaxed manner.
"The soft body was burned by fire, and the child that hadn't been born yet was suffocated to death, and you were just watching the fun from the side. Sister, how could I not miss you like this? Did you see that? Isn't my face beautiful?"
As the strange voice of the woman in red spread everywhere, her facial skin had been completely peeled off by her, revealing a bloody and foul-smelling face. Qiu Zhen covered her mouth in horror and kept backing away.
She wanted to scream, but found that she couldn't make any sound at all, especially after the woman tore off her entire face, she suddenly inserted one hand into her stomach and vigorously turned something over. At this time, Qiu Zhen looked at the large amount of blood on her body and feet, and her stomach began to churn constantly...
"No, don't move anymore, I beg you, don't move anymore!"
"Don't move? Why not? Qiu Zhen, do you know how miserable my death was? Compared to this, my pain is nothing? You can't stand it? I am so disappointed!"
The woman in red opened her bloody mouth and stared with her bloody eyes.
Finally, something seemed to be taken out of her stomach. When she showed a weird smile and threw the thing in her hand mercilessly to Qiu Zhen, who was trembling with her head in her hands, a sharp scream instantly pierced the night sky of Yongning Palace.
A few crows were frightened and flapped their wings, cackling and flew away.
But in Yongning Palace, it was still eerily quiet.
If you look closely, you will find that there are countless guards, eunuchs and palace maids lying in all directions inside and outside the Yongning Palace.
And those who were sleeping soundly were naturally still sleeping soundly, and Qiu Zhen's voice did not affect anyone.
At that time, Qiu Zhen was so frightened by the woman in red that he was panting more than breathing in.
She knelt on the cold floor, trembling like a sieve, and kowtowed to the woman in red. While kowtowing, she dodged the five poisonous creatures around her, such as snot and tears, including scorpions, poisonous snakes, toads and spiders.
It was not difficult to tell from her frightened eyes that she was terrified to the extreme at this moment. Unfortunately, these poisonous creatures only surrounded her and did not bite her, but they could scare her to death.
She wanted to faint directly, but the scary ghost girl in front of her would make her smell an unknown gas as soon as she fainted. She couldn't faint or vomit. Qiu Zhen felt that she was going to die. She had never wanted to die as much as she did at that moment.
"Please, let me go, let me go, I beg you, I will give you whatever you want, I will burn paper for you, lots of gold, even though you are dead, you will be rich and powerful in the underworld, okay? Please let me go..."
"Hahaha, if I let you go, then who will let me go? What about my son? And my unborn child? Who of you has ever let us go? It's too late to beg me now!"
"No, this is not my fault. It's all the fault of the emperor. It's all the fault of the emperor, sister. I really didn't do anything. I didn't do anything. Wuwu, please, don't come to me. Don't come to me."
The red-dressed woman's eyes were filled with more sarcasm: "You've completely denied it. When disaster strikes, everyone flees! Qiu Zhen, you don't really think that the dead know nothing, do you?"
Qiu Zhen, whose consciousness was beginning to fade, suddenly raised his head when he heard this. The fear in his eyes was suddenly replaced by vigilance: "No, you are not Du Yunge. That woman is dead. A dead person wouldn't know so much. You, who are you?"
The woman in red casually pulled her hair, and instantly a large clump of hair fell off. She casually scattered her hair onto the five poisonous creatures surrounding Qiu Zhen.
Then, she shook her paper-white arms, and with a casual pull, a large piece of flesh fell off. She threw it down casually, and the poisonous snakes instantly wrapped around it. In a short while, it was divided up completely.
She shook the head that was hanging tremblingly on her head, opened her bloody eyes, and looked at Qiu Zhen sinisterly.
"Who am I? Haha, who am I? Your surname is Qiu? Tell me, who am I? Look, my face is gone, my stomach is empty, and my head is about to fall off. Do you want to try and see if you can dig out these eyeballs?"
In fact, Qiu Zhen fainted from fright after seeing her throw her own flesh into the snakes.
This time, when the woman in red turned around, she just frowned slightly and did not move forward. Regardless of the fact that she was covered in blood, she waved her hand and a chair appeared behind her. She sat on it as a matter of course, and a cold voice suddenly rang out.
"Those who want to watch the fun can come in now!"
The shadow outside the door and the person lying on the eaves froze at the same time. Obviously, they didn't expect to be discovered so quickly.
But unexpectedly, the person who finally pushed the door open and walked in was the dark shadow at the door, while the person on the eaves quietly hid his tracks.
黑暗中,远处的帷幔被风刮的忽上忽下的舞动着,空气中,弥漫着厚重的血腥味儿以及特别的腥臭味。
黑衣人皱了皱眉,随手一掌挥过去,不但身后的门应声而关,便是连不知何时被打开的窗户,也被紧紧的关上了。
借着微弱的烛光,黑影瞥了眼趴在地上的仇贞,渐渐的将目光落在那个背对着她的披头散发的红衣女子身上,目光冷寒中带了一抹审视,“你是谁?”
“仇贞的仇人,不知这个答案,姑娘是否满意?”
彼时,红衣女子的声音里已经没有刚刚诡异的颤音,反而恢复了正常,似乎已经笃定了,这个时候出现在这里的黑衣人,是友非敌。
这般肯定的语气,饶是黑衣人,也格外诧异的挑了挑眉。
“你怎么就知道……,”
接下来的话还没问完,红衣女子却突然站起了身,随手一扯,脸上的所有血色伪装尽数被撤去,包括那身血红色的长裙也被红衣女子,哦不,现在应该说是……
上官晴曦!
暗处的人影在看到她的面容时,霎那之间僵硬在了原地。
而上官晴曦却并没有注意到此房间中除了他们三个,竟然还有一个人。
她直接将自己的行头扔到了正前方的黑衣人面前,似笑非笑的看着她:“这套衣服,可还熟悉?”
黑衣人原本没有注意,可当室内突然闪烁出夜明珠的光亮时,眼前的那已经血迹斑斑的衣服,却让黑衣人瞬时愣在了原地。
“这,这不是当年皇……,”
接下来的话还没说完,黑衣人已经紧张的捂住嘴巴,瞠目结舌的看着一身黑衣劲装,干练绝色的上官晴曦。
这时的她,哪里还是平日里他们所看到的那个孱弱的病美人?
“你,你到底是谁?”
“我是谁不重要,重要的是,我知道你是谁就对了,因为今天来这里,不单单是好好的恐吓恐吓这个女人,更重要的是,我是来见你的!”
此言一出,黑衣人彻底傻了眼:“见,见我?”
“琉樱,你韬光隐晦这么多年,为的不就是等我吗?”
这突如其来的话,让黑衣人踉跄了一下,不可思议的瞪大眸子,“你,你是,你是我当年抱走的那个孩子?”
“是我,我就是那个被你放在灵蛇岛的小女娃。”
上官晴曦平静的语气直刺激的琉樱险些厥过去。
“不,不对,这件事你怎么可能会知道?你那个时候,甚至连百天都不到,你,”
事实上,上官晴曦从一开始就知道自己为什么会出现在灵蛇岛。
因为当年便是这个琉樱,将她放在了那里,等待岛上的人将她抱走,她才消失不见。
而在此之前,琉樱整整照顾了她近百天,从她与一个男人的对话中,她才知道她所有的算计。
也正因为此,她根据琉樱的设计,取得了灵蛇岛上人的信任,并且通过一重又一重的考验,最终才有了如今的地位。
这么多年来,她一直在努力,一直在扩大自己的势力,就是为了有朝一日,能够亲自了结敌人。
仅是这永宁宫中,就有她安插的内线,已达十人之多。
随着她势力的不断扩大,从前不明白的地方也如抽丝剥茧一般呈现在她的面前。
同样的,她没有忘记将她带到这个世上的琉樱。
这些年,她一直未曾与她联系,为的就是这一天。
当年的她,怎么也想不到,被她派出去为父亲寻找药引子的琉樱,却成了她如今存活于世的唯一媒介,倘若没有琉樱,她或许早就不在人世了。
随着琉樱浮出水面,她又从宫中线人那里知道,同样活下来的,还有她的如烟。
可惜的是,喜鹊和锦墨,却再也回不来了,再也!
上官晴曦对自己究竟是谁的孩子,并没有仔细的想过,她唯一知道的是,她醒过来的时候,便已经被琉樱抱在了怀里。
当时,她还以为这一切是幻觉,可当她真实的摸到她的脸后,才后知后觉的发现,这竟然是真的。
她重生了,还重生在了琉樱怀里的孩子身上。
上天,果然是对她不薄的。
“因为我是带着记忆重生的,因为我是……!”
最后几个字,上官晴曦虽然只张了嘴,未发出声音,可琉樱却看得分明,当即被震得琉樱腿下一软。
“你,你说什么?你,你是……?”
“樱儿不用怀疑自己看到的,我就是她,我没有死,我重生在了这个孩子的身上,从头到尾,我都知道是你救了我,从头到尾我都知道你为了我脱胎换骨一步步走到了今天的位置。”
“樱儿,我谢谢你为我所做的一切,十二年了,我回来了,所以,我们的复仇,正式开始了!”
此时的琉樱已经不知用什么心情来形容她的内心,可是上官晴曦的镇静却让她不得不相信这一切的一切都是真的。
琉樱这个名字,已经有多少年未曾有人这般的叫过了?
“可,可这怎么可能?怎么会这么巧?怎……,”
话到这里时,琉樱似乎想到了什么,猛地看向自己的主子。
“难怪,难怪,当年这个孩子明明已经死了,明明已经没有任何的气息了,可我为了让您相信她还活着,所以奴婢骗了您,说她活着,所以,您当年是笑着离开我的。”
“可是,可是就在您刚刚咽气一刻钟后,孩子的身体居然奇迹般的暖了过来,脸色也不再像之前那般的乌青发紫,也没有窒息的征兆,她活了,她活了过来,”
“但我怎么也没想到的是,那个孩子的灵魂,竟然会是小姐您?这,这太不可思议了,一定是苍天有眼,让我们主仆携手来洗清杜家这个天大的冤案的,是不是?”
琉樱说的激动,完全没有注意到已经呈呆若木鸡状态的上官晴曦,正张着嘴巴,呆呆的看着她。
等等,什么叫她骗了我?
说她活着,还是笑着离开的?
无错版本在69书吧读!6=9+书_吧首发本小说。
什么叫她咽气以后,孩子活了过来,而且灵魂,还是她自己?
为什么她说的这些,她一点印象都没有?
如果当年不是亲眼看到就是琉樱救了她,她又怎么可能会如此笃定她就是那个孩子?
可是现在这丫头却告诉她,那个孩子的身份是……这怎么可能?
“姑娘,你,你怎么了?”
终于,琉樱发现了上官晴曦的不对劲,忙低声问道。
“你把话跟我说清楚,你救得那个孩子,也就是现在的我,是谁?她究竟是谁?”
此言一出,琉樱终于发现到底是哪里不对劲了,她诧异的看着眼前绝美却陌生的脸,
“您,您不知道?”
上官晴曦目光游弋,落在趴在地下人世不醒的女人身上,想起那一夜的可怕,只觉浑身都是冰冷的。
“我的记忆,仅存在澜儿惨死,我自尽而亡,慢慢的等待鲜血流干流净,那个时候,我感觉浑身的力气都抽走了一般,灵魂也跟着涣散……,”
“余下的记忆,根本就没有了,我甚至能感觉到那火蔓延到身上时炙烤般的痛苦……”
“别,别说了,小姐,您莫要说了!”
琉樱原本还有些戒备的心,在听到这些话之后,再也抑制不住内心的激动,踉跄着上前,扑倒在上官晴曦的脚下,即便坚强如她,也止不住眼泪只掉。
“小姐,我的好小姐,您当年自尽之后,并没有立刻就没了气息,您在等我,您一直在等我过去。”
“所以您用假死蒙骗了所有的人,您用残存的一口气,暗自施针给肚中的孩子,拼命的挽留她的生命。”
“可惜的是,您终究失血太多,再加之当时周围全是火,奴婢赶过来的时候,孩子她,已经窒息死了。”
“而您,在听说孩子还活着,并且是个女娃之后,便,去,去了……呜呜,苍天有眼,苍天有眼啊!”
原来竟然是这样!
上官晴曦呆在原地,愣了足足一刻钟后,才缓缓的垂下眸,看着已经哭得不能自已的琉樱,眼泪不知何时,也同样的模糊了她的视线。
“看来,那个时候,我基本上已经没有任何的意识了,如若不是有这个孩子吊着最后一口气,只怕根本就等不到你来吧?只是我算到了你,却没有算到我这个身份。”
“呵呵,我竟然重生到了卫瑜琛女儿的身上,哈哈哈,可笑,可笑啊!”
“小姐,这是上天都看不惯这个狗皇帝的所作所为,这是上天要给我们机会去复仇,小姐,您如今的这个身份,或许会是我们致胜的关键!”
上官晴曦若有所思的摸着自己的脸,眼中闪烁着复杂的光芒。
“可是我这张脸,根本就和当年的我没有半点的相似之处啊!”
When Liu Ying heard this, she suddenly thought of something, "Don't worry, young lady, this face of yours was actually tampered with by me secretly. My senior brother modified this face, so it can't be seen. If young lady wants to restore it, my senior brother may have a way."
"Transformation? You mean this face has been disguised?"
Liu Ying said hurriedly: "No, it's not a disguise. This face has never been disguised. Instead, the facial muscles and bones have been changed through a method of changing bones. This method is very profound and mysterious. My senior brother learned it from my master, Elder Xuanji. In this world, only my senior brother can do this."
"Back then, I was afraid that you would look too much like your old face when you grew up, so I did something wrong. But I didn't expect that even so, this face is still so beautiful that it makes people afraid. If you restore your true appearance, wouldn't it be...?"
"Is there such a profound and mysterious method in this world?"
Even the well-informed Shangguan Qingxi couldn't help but tremble with fear.
"Then Miss, do you want to recover? Senior Brother has already arrived in Beijing and can help you recover at any time."
Shangguan Qingxi shook her head: "I never want to see that face again in my life. It's not just me, you guys feel the same way, right? It hurts every time you see it, why bother yourself with making it unpleasant?"
"Although I don't know how similar this body is to my previous life, since we are mother and daughter, it must be not much different. I don't want to see it again."
"But if you don't rely on that face, how can you get close to Wei Yuchen?"
"I have my own opinion on this. Let's just leave it at that for now. Don't bring it up again."
After learning her true identity, Shangguan Qingxi was not surprised at all, but became more melancholy.
This result was far from what she had expected. In this case, how could she still talk about marrying into the Phoenix Palace?
After all, Wei Jie is still her uncle. How can a niece marry her uncle?
But she didn't want to give up such a good chess piece, so what should she do? Could it be that she really wanted to commit incest?
"Miss, where do you live now? How can I contact you in the future?"
Liuying, who had just met and recognized each other, felt that she had a lot to say to her master.
But when the words came to my lips, I didn't know where to start. I could only look at her greedily and hold her tightly, afraid that when I woke up again, all this would be fake, it didn't exist, it was just a dream.
Shangguan Qingxi gently helped Liuying up, and the master and servant sat together.
She touched Liuying's no longer young face, and tears couldn't stop falling.
"Good Ying'er, I'm fine. I've been very happy these years. I have many relatives, brothers and sisters around me. They take care of me like they take care of their own relatives. So, don't cry for me anymore. Do you hear me?"
Liuying wanted to say something but stopped herself. Shangguan Qingxi had already wiped away her tears and forced a smile.
"Let's not talk about this. Why are you okay?"
Before Shangguan Qingxi came here, she had filled the entire Yongning Palace with aphrodisiac incense. How could Liuying not have inhaled it?
"Because I went to see Ruyan, I didn't expect that I escaped. Speaking of which, if I hadn't escaped, wouldn't I have missed such a wonderful show?"
More importantly, she waited for her little master, the little person she had been praying for all these years, but what she never expected was that this little person shared the same soul with her mistress. She could even feel that they seemed to be one step closer to success.
"So how are you going to arrange this person, Miss?"
Liuying kicked Qiu Zhen right in the nose, causing him to bleed profusely. The poisonous creatures around him suddenly became excited when they smelled the fresh smell of blood.
"Just scare her tonight. When she wakes up tomorrow morning, she will naturally start to be afraid every night."
Shangguan Qingxi's confidence made Liu Ying very curious, "Why?"
"Because tonight, there will be more than just a killing. Tomorrow morning, there will be a good show!"
Shangguan Qingxi snorted coldly and brushed away the poisonous creatures on the ground. When she looked down again, they had disappeared.
These poisons may be extremely dangerous and terrifying in the eyes of others, but to her, they are like her best friends.
She has been exposed to these things since she was a child, and they are all derivatives of her careful care and are extremely close to her.
Even Liu Ying was frightened by her action. "Is it really okay to hang them like this?"
Shangguan Qingxi raised her eyebrows, "Don't worry, these are my good friends who fought together. Okay, I have to go now, and I'll leave the rest to you."
"When will the young lady come again?"
Liuying held her hand reluctantly, and Qingxi looked at her with emotion.
"Don't worry, I will have another identity, and it will be easy to enter the palace. Just don't send me any news, so as to avoid being suspected without reason. Understand?"
Liu Ying nodded with tears in her eyes. Shangguan Qingxi thought for a moment and said, "Don't tell Ruyan about this for the time being. She is more emotional than you. If you don't handle it well, it will reveal a flaw!"
After explaining the follow-up matters, Shangguan Qingxi bid farewell to the reluctant Liuying, easily transformed into a black shadow, and disappeared above the Yongning Palace.
But when she turned the corner, an inadvertent glance made her notice that the Qinzheng Hall was still brightly lit at this time, and what flashed in her mind was Wei Yuchen's sinister, dangerous and stern face.
She pursed her lips and was about to go the other way, but was suddenly stopped by a dark shadow, changing her original direction.
Even though she was frightened, her strong on-the-spot reaction allowed her to calm down quickly. She just stared at the tall man in black who gave her a strange feeling with her eyes wide open. "Who are you?"
Being able to appear beside her silently and control her in a moment was enough to show that this person's skills were superior to hers. Just a glance at the dangerous and cold aura emanating from this person made Shangguan Qingxi frown slightly, "Who are you?"
The man in black just stood there quietly, with a pair of cold eyes that seemed to be able to suck her in in the blink of an eye. This feeling made her feel inexplicably flustered. She frowned slightly and gave him a cold look: "Inexplicable!"
So he wanted to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, the man behind her clenched his fists, and his figure flashed, blocking her way and holding her slender shoulders tightly: "Are you Du Yunge?"
Shangguan Qingxi looked calm, but her heart was already in turmoil. She stared at him intently as if someone was choking her throat, her beautiful eyes wide open, "You, what are you talking about?"
The man in black took a deep breath and looked at the beautiful face in front of him. In the dark night, he suddenly pulled off his mask, revealing his stunning face.
At that moment, Shangguan Qingxi felt a loud bang in her head, as if something exploded. She stood there, forgetting to react.
The man seemed to be confirming her identity. His clear and steady voice sounded faintly at this time: "Are you Du Yunge?"
"I, I don't understand what you're talking about."
Shangguan Qingxi clenched her fists tightly and stepped back subconsciously.
The man in black didn't intend to give her time to think and moved forward step by step.
You retreat, I advance.
If you retreat again, I will advance again.
When there was no way to retreat, Shangguan Qingxi could no longer suppress the panic in her heart and raised her eyes in anger.
"What do you want to do?"
"Just now in Yongning Palace, you were not panicked at all! You and Mu Han, oh, or should I say Liu Ying?"
Before the man in black finished speaking, Shangguan Qingxi grabbed his throat with her backhand as fast as lightning: "What did you say? Were you in Yongning Palace just now?"
They didn't even feel anything from beginning to end?
Shangguan Qingxi's face turned pale in an instant, and when she looked at the man in black in front of her, her eyes were filled with murderous intent.
How could the man in black not see this, but he was neither panicked nor anxious. He just looked at her face greedily, and subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to touch her passionately, but Shangguan Qingxi struggled to avoid him in a vigilant manner.
Looking at the abnormal man in black, she gradually increased the strength of her hands. When she saw that the man in black was about to die, she seemed to hear him say something in a daze.
