Chapter 225: Fight to the Death
When the carriage was halfway there was the sound of galloping horses.
The posture of the forerunner and the frequency of beating the horse all show the eagerness of the person on horseback.
"Master, it's the head of the family!" Xing Hui reported.
"You came just in time!"
Xinyuerong has been patient until now, and finally has a place to vent.
He picked up the whip and flew out of the car.
"Rong'er!"
The man on horseback cracked his whip several times, lunged forward, and dismounted, his body covered in dust.
His once handsome face has been weathered, and his sparkling eyes have been silent for many years.
At this moment, it is like a resurgence, with a little starlight.
"Rong'er, did you...find it?"
He stared at the person in front of him, full of affection and expectation, just like before.
However, what he got was a severe whipping.
"Beigong Ting! Eighteen years ago, you gave up on finding your daughter and nearly killed her. Five years ago, you found a woman to impersonate my Fu'er and tried to stop me from finding my daughter, so that we mother and daughter would never see each other again.
You've never cared about your daughter. Even if she finds her, what does it have to do with you?"
"Rong'er..."
Beigong Ting didn't care about his injuries at all.
I begged softly, "Yes, I was wrong. Can I go home now?"
He did that just to end his wife's hopeless search year after year.
Because I always believed in my heart that my daughter was no longer there.
Even now, he actually didn't quite believe that the person she found was really her daughter.
But it doesn't matter.
As long as his wife can come home, he will accept anyone as his daughter.
"Beigong Ting, do you know where my daughter has been living? In Pingyang! In Pingyang, less than a hundred miles away from Lutai!
You said you were looking, but are you really looking?"
The more Xinyuerong spoke, the more she felt like a fool.
Just because she believed he would find her, she went all the way south.
But it’s less than a hundred miles!
"If you had found it earlier, our family would have been reunited long ago."
But no.
It was right under his nose, but he didn't find it.
Beigong Ting was also shocked.
Just so close?
That's impossible. He sent people to look for Pingyang.
Could it be that my daughter has changed her appearance?
He looked towards the carriage.
A hunchbacked old man with white hair was sitting in the carriage.
The car curtain opened and Mo Cuiyu looked over worriedly.
At just one glance, Beigong Ting knew that this was indeed his daughter!
He moved his feet and tried to move forward, but was whipped hard again.
"You don't deserve to be near my daughter!"
"Rong'er, hit me, hit me hard, I won't move, I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"
"You know you're wrong, but it's too late! Do you know what happened to your daughter? She was buried alive! The person who buried her was your good sister, Beigong Yuyan!"
"Impossible! She is Fu'er's aunt!" Beigong Ting retorted instinctively.
Xinyue Rong laughed miserably.
"It's too late to regret marrying into a noble family! You're cold-blooded and heartless, worse than pigs and dogs!"
"Just to force you to help her remove the stumbling block, she plotted against me and killed my daughter. How cruel!
Beigong Ting, you are just a knife in her hand. What aunt, sister, your Beigong family are all a group of man-eating jackals! "
"Go back. I've given you the divorce papers multiple times. I don't want to delay the City Lord from marrying a new bride. The bond between you and me was completely severed five years ago."
"New Moon Melt!"
Beigong Ting cried out in pain: "Do you really think I will marry someone else? I just want to force you to go back..."
"You know my temper. Are you forcing me? Ha, who gave you this bad idea?"
How could Xin Yuerong be someone who could be forced?
"I'll tell you one more thing today: From now on, my Crescent Moon Villa will fight the Third Prince and his faction to the death! If he becomes emperor, he will do so over my corpse!"
However, I'm afraid he doesn't have that ability!
Didn’t Beigong Yuyan say that she was a lunatic and a fool? Then she should be prepared to bear the wrath of a lunatic!
"If you choose us, mother and daughter, then kill Beigong Yuyan! If you choose her, then raze Crescent Villa as soon as possible, otherwise, there will be no chance!"
"Beigong Ting, I'll wait for your news."
Xinyue Rong got on the carriage.
Only Beigong Ting was left standing alone in the cold wind, his body and mind chilled to the bone.
His wife and daughter were separated, and he had been lonely for half his life. His sister knew the hardships he had endured over the years.
If she really did it, how cold and hard her heart must be.
He wants to investigate thoroughly!
Turning back, I glanced in the direction of the carriage and saw a small round head popping up, looking over here curiously.
This child...
My memory suddenly went back to the past. I thought that things that happened more than ten years ago had been completely forgotten.
But at this moment, the memory is as clear as yesterday.
His daughter, who was only as tall as his knees, held a teacup and called out in a soft voice: Daddy, please have some tea.
A smile appeared on Beigong Ting's face.
The little kid in the car also responded with a smile.
This smile instantly broke his heart, which had been lonely for too long.
He wants his family to be complete and can't wait any longer!
"Mom, when you told Dad that you wanted to deal with the Third Prince, did you know that Dad would help us?"
In the car, Mo Cuiyu asked.
Xinyue Rong shook her head, "I don't know."
"That……"
“If it were in the past, I would have believed that he would choose me, but now… the Beigong family has supported the Third Prince for many years. If they withdraw now, it will involve too many things, and it is not up to him alone to decide.
But no matter who he chooses, Crescent Villa has already made preparations, and he can't just move it if he wants.
In recent years, the imperial court has been in turmoil, and the villa has secretly developed many forces. Mother has also contacted the Huaishan Palace, and they are at odds with the Third Prince's faction...
I'll tell you in detail when we get back."
…
Finally, there was no one on the road, and a man walked out from behind a tree in the distance.
Huo Jianglin knew that he had lost Mo Cuiyu forever.
He hated himself for being so cowardly by nature!
Many times, I have made up my mind to be brave, but when I encounter danger, my body subconsciously wants to escape.
There's no hope, there's no hope for him!
Huo Jianglin ran to the forest and hit the tree trunk like crazy, imagining that it was the yamen runner who bullied Mo Cuiyu. He cried and hit it.
Until exhausted, lying on the ground like mud.
I don't want to live anymore.
In fact, he was knocked to the ground and never got up again.
People like him have let down his father, his wife and his children.
Even if I live, I will not achieve anything.
If only their house hadn’t been ransacked, he and Cuiyu would have been fine.
If only he could resist refusing the food given to him by the yamen runners.
If only he hadn't beaten Cui Yu.
if……
There is no if, he has no chance to make up for it.
He didn't know how long he lay there, but his whole body was cold and covered with a layer of dead leaves.
Someone is talking nearby.
There was silence all around, and the sound fell clearly into his ears.
That strange accent is clearly...
