"I am stupid and unlucky. I have a father like this, so I can only be coaxed by you."
During the month that Chu Qianhuang was imprisoned in Baiyun Temple, he had nothing to do except copying and listening to scriptures. He kept thinking about the people and things in the Chu family.
Her understanding of Jiang Minshan was limited by the dream, so she made a big mistake and was fooled by the other party.
Thinking about it now, Chu Qianhuang still felt unwilling and sneered: "You are not a weak dodder at all, you are actually a poisonous snake!"
No wonder the saying goes that the sting of a wasp is as poisonous as the heart of a woman!
Every word Chu Qianhuang said was full of thorns, but Aunt Jiang didn't even raise her eyebrows, she just said calmly: "Let me go."
"Why, you did it, and you don't allow me to tell you!" Chu Qianhuang did not let go of Aunt Jiang, but instead held her wrist tighter, her eyes fierce, "You have instigated and used me again and again, and used sweet words to induce me to go against my biological mother again and again, so that my mother and I are completely alienated; you also used me as a gun, instigating me to find Hao Ren and cripple my second uncle."
"Over the years, you have been accustomed to using others to achieve your goals. You are like this to me and to your father too!!"
"Let me guess what else you've done? I heard that my father had a stroke recently and is now paralyzed. He can't speak or move. Could this also be your doing?!"
Chu Qianhuang had only said it casually, but after he had said it, he felt that it was very likely.
Chu Lingxiao was only in his early thirties. If no one had done anything wrong, how could he suddenly have a stroke and become paralyzed?
Given Aunt Jiang's selfish nature, even if she once had true love for Chu Lingxiao that was willing to live and die with him, this love would probably have disappeared after more than a decade of suffering. What's worse, love has long since turned into hate.
Yes, she hated Chu Lingxiao! Facing Chu Qianhuang's indignant accusations, Aunt Jiang neither admitted nor denied them. She smiled faintly and repeated those three words again: "Let me go."
Her voice was still gentle, and her eyelashes trembled slightly twice, but other than that, her expression did not change in the slightest. There was no embarrassment, shame, dissatisfaction or ridicule on her face.
She kept smiling, and even her eyes brightened up a little.
She has waited and planned for so many years, and now Chu Yunyi has finally legitimately inherited the title of Marquis Yongding, which means that her greatest goal has been achieved and nothing can threaten her anymore.
Looking at Aunt Jiang's face with a fake smile, Chu Qianhuang felt as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her head. After being angry, she began to calm down.
She finally understood that Jiang Minshan really didn't care, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she did. She would take advantage of everyone wantonly, whether it was the former "Chu Qianchen" or herself later.
In order to achieve her goal, Jiang Minshan would use any means and regardless of the price! Therefore, my accusations against her, my anger and unwillingness, in Jiang Minshan's eyes, I am afraid that I am just a clown who can't hurt her at all!
The pressure in Chu Qianhuang's heart made her feel even more uncomfortable, and she couldn't vent her anger.
Suddenly, Chu Qianhuang felt a sharp pain on the back of her right hand. The next moment, Aunt Jiang's wrist broke free from Chu Qianhuang's shackles. Chu Qianhuang then noticed that Aunt Jiang's left hand was holding a silver hairpin, and she had just pierced the back of her hand with the tip of the hairpin.
Aunt Jiang casually put the hairpin back into her bun, then gently stroked her fluffy hair. Her slender white fingers set off her ink-black hair, the black and white distinct, just like a picture of a lady.
Aunt Jiang curled her lips, her smile deepened, but her eyes became more indifferent.
"If you have nothing else to do, I'll leave first." She gracefully stroked her sleeves which were a little wrinkled due to the entanglement just now, and was about to leave leisurely, as if Chu Qianhuang's existence did not even enter her eyes.
She looked like she was saying, "Whatever you say, that's it. It has nothing to do with me. No matter how you yell and curse, it won't affect me at all."
"Wait!" Chu Qianhuang was once again stung by Aunt Jiang's indifference. She took two steps at a time and stepped forward, blocking Aunt Jiang's way again. She said with a firm expression, "You are the one who killed my father, right?!"
"Jiang Minshan, do you really think you haven't revealed any flaws?"
"Don't you think I don't know? You did all this for Brother Yi!"
When Chu Qianhuang mentioned Chu Yunyi, Aunt Jiang's calm expression finally showed some subtle changes, and the faint smile on her lips faded.
Chu Qianhuang had been observing Aunt Jiang and caught her emotional change at that moment. She knew that she must have found Aunt Jiang's weakness.
That's right, everything Aunt Jiang did was for Chu Yunyi! Chu Qianhuang's thoughts turned quickly, and her speech speed also increased: "Whether it's using me, or instigating me to find someone to cripple my second uncle, or even now paralyzing my father, everything you did was for Brother Yi, right?"
"You really have put in a lot of effort to make Brother Yi inherit the title!" Chu Qianhuang's voice was full of sarcasm, "But, will Brother Yi appreciate your kindness?"
Chu Qianhuang looked down at the other person, and his tone became more and more calm.
When she saw clearly what Aunt Jiang was up to, she couldn't help but sigh that she had been blinded by her own blindness. In fact, Aunt Jiang's thoughts were not difficult to guess.
Aunt Jiang: “…”
Aunt Jiang's eyes flickered for a moment, and she pretended to raise her hand to hold the hairpin, turned her face to the side, and looked away.
Chu Qianhuang sneered and continued, "Brother Yi has always been upright and proud. He has the capital to be so. He is smart and hardworking. He passed the Imperial Academy's military exam on his own. Now the new emperor also intends to use him. His future should be bright and open."
"But if he knew what you did, how would he look at you?! With his intolerant nature, do you think he would still recognize you as his mother?"
Chu Qianhuang looked at Aunt Jiang with malice, and every word she said hit the other party's sore spot directly. Her mood also became happy, as if she had drunk a jar of fine wine.
Chu Qianhuang understood Chu Yunyi's character, and Aunt Jiang also understood her son. They both knew that Chu Yunyi would never tolerate the crimes committed by his biological mother.
"..." Aunt Jiang closed her eyes tightly, and her slender fingers pinched the handkerchief tightly. The skin of her hands was as white as wax sculpture, and her lips, which were originally pale, seemed to have lost all their color.
Seeing Aunt Jiang's expression change, Chu Qianhuang smiled happily, like a soldier who fought back and killed the enemy in adversity.
She added mockingly, "I guessed it all right, didn't I? Jiang Minshan, ah Jiang Minshan, haha, I thought you had no weaknesses."
"It seems that anything a person cares about will have weaknesses! Haha..."
Chu Qianhuang raised her chin slightly, and a wild laugh escaped from her cherry lips.
"Don't tell Brother Yi!" Aunt Jiang interrupted Chu Qianhuang in a cold voice. She spoke each word clearly, and her tone was not sharp, but it could not hide the threat.
Where their eyes met, sparks of fire flew and tensions were high.
"Why?!" Chu Qianhuang sneered as if she had heard a joke, "Why should I listen to you? You deceived me so badly, why should I listen to you!"
Chu Qianhuang felt that he had caught the other party's handle, so he relaxed and casually rolled the handkerchief with his fingers, again and again. He paused for a moment before saying, "Or, you beg me!"
The wind blew gently, softly brushing the cuffs and hems of their clothes, and their skirts fluttered like butterflies.
The pomegranate trees nearby also danced in the wind, with clusters of bright red pomegranate flowers blooming in full swing, extremely gorgeous. Occasionally, a few flowers dropped a few petals, and the remaining flowers hung on the branches, about to fall, as if they would fall off the branches at any time...
Aunt Jiang's gaze paused for a moment on the crumbling pomegranate flowers on the branches, her eyes seemed a little dazed.
Then, she closed her eyes again. When she opened them, her gaze fell directly on Chu Qianhuang's face. Her dark eyes seemed to be able to swallow up all the starlight in the sky. She said slowly, "Sister Huang, I beg you."
"Brother Yi is your brother. Considering how sincere he is to you..."
As she spoke, a thin layer of mist appeared in Aunt Jiang's eyes.
The wind was getting stronger, making her skirt rustle. Her figure looked even thinner and more delicate, which made the viewers feel pity for her. They just wanted to bring the best things in the world to her just to make her smile.
Chu Qianhuang casually pinched a section of the pomegranate branch, and this action moved the entire branch, and the clusters of bright red flowers on the branch trembled slightly.
Chu Qianhuang smiled sweetly, her small and delicate chin slightly raised, and she put her nose close to the flowers on the branch and sniffed the fragrance. The bright smile spread from the corners of her mouth to the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and even the tails of her eyes were slightly curled.
She laughed heartily, and her laughter was not only joyful but also proud, with a kind of contentment that came from winning people's hearts.
"You'd better not play any tricks in front of me in the future! Otherwise, I can't guarantee that I will say anything to Brother Yi." Chu Qianhuang had a half-smile on her face, just wanting to vent the frustration and resentment she had felt over the past few days. "Hey, if Brother Yi knew the truth, would he still be able to sit on the throne with a clear conscience?"
Chu Yunyi was her brother, and she had no grudge against him. She didn't want to see him fail, and in terms of character and talent, Chu Yunyi was the most suitable man in the Chu family to inherit the title. However, Aunt Jiang was like a poisonous snake and a blood-sucking leech, which made Chu Qianhuang feel very unhappy and couldn't swallow this breath. The more she made the other person unhappy, the more she wanted to do it.
She just wanted to see Aunt Jiang panic, to see Aunt Jiang begging her, to see Aunt Jiang regret using her! "Sister Huang, please don't be like this, I beg you." Aunt Jiang's eyes were filled with tears, and two clear lines of tears slid down her eyes.
She wiped the tears from her face with a handkerchief, and her eyes beneath the handkerchief grew deeper and darker little by little. There seemed to be a hurricane raging in those pupils, carrying a force that could destroy the world, as if wishing to turn everything in heaven and earth into ashes.
"..." Chu Qianhuang said nothing. She gently picked a pomegranate flower from the branch and twisted it between two fingers.
Snow-white skin, fiery red flowers, the flowers were held between the fingertips, as if a pool of blood had been pierced by an embroidery needle.
She is now isolated and helpless, and is worried that it will be difficult to avoid the eyes and ears of others. However, if someone unexpected helps her, she may not be able to escape.
Aunt Jiang is a very good candidate! No one would have thought of this, especially Shen Qianchen, she would definitely not have thought of this...
Chu Qianhuang was immersed in her own thoughts and didn't notice that Aunt Jiang took out a dagger from her sleeve under the cover of her handkerchief.
Tears kept sliding down Aunt Jiang's eyes, and she cried like a crabapple blossom after the rain, making me feel even more pitiful.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the dagger in her hand. The cold and shining blade reflected her murderous eyes, and her eyes were also reflected in the cold light of the dagger.
Aunt Jiang held the handle of the dagger firmly.
Since the day she poisoned Chu Lingxiao, she carried this dagger with her every day. It was originally prepared for Chu Lingxiao...
I didn't expect that this dagger would be used on someone else today.
Aunt Jiang gritted her teeth, threw away the handkerchief, held the dagger in both hands, and rushed towards Chu Qianhuang desperately, like a female beast! Her eyes were extremely firm, with a determination to burn her boats.
Yi Ge'er, everything she did was for Yi Ge'er! She would never let anyone become a stumbling block for Yi Ge'er! Her son should be bright and beautiful, and should live the way she dreamed! The tip of the dagger stabbed straight into Chu Qianhuang's abdomen. Because Aunt Jiang was hit with her body, the momentum was so great that the dagger instantly sank into her flesh.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
It all happened so fast, almost in a flash.
Chu Qianhuang only felt Aunt Jiang bumping into her heavily. She staggered back a step and her back hit the pomegranate tree behind her.
The pomegranate tree shook violently with its branches trembling. Bright red petals fluttered down and sprinkled on Chu Qianhuang and Aunt Jiang like flowers scattered by fairies.
The scene was beautiful as a dream.
But Chu Qianhuang's face changed drastically, and she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, a pain like a heart-wrenching pain...
It hurt so much, so much that her face turned visibly pale, as if her vitality was rapidly fading away along with the fading of the blood, and beads of sweat oozed from her forehead.
"You...you..." Chu Qianhuang shouted with a trembling voice, staring at Aunt Jiang who was clinging to her in disbelief, her eyes wide and round.
Aunt Jiang responded by pulling the dagger out of her belly again and then quickly taking two steps back.
"Tick-tock. Tick-tock..."
The glaring blood dripped from the dagger onto the ground. The sound was actually not loud, but to Chu Qianhuang's ears at this moment, it seemed to be infinitely magnified.
Chu Qianhuang subconsciously bent over and covered her abdomen. Because she leaned against the tree trunk, she was able to stand without falling.
The warm, sticky blood flowed out from the wound, instantly staining her skirt and slender white fingers red.
Blood gushed out from between her fingers, and then dripped down, onto her skirt, her shoes, the ground... forming shocking pools of blood.
The pomegranate flower that Chu Qianhuang was originally holding also floated down and landed on the pool of blood on the ground, soaking in the blood along with the other fallen petals.
Of course Chu Qianhuang didn't care about this pomegranate flower. She looked at the blood gushing out of her abdomen, then looked at Aunt Jiang a few steps away, still unable to believe it.
Aunt Jiang still held the blood-stained dagger tightly in her hands, her fingers were slender and her nails were stained with light-colored nail polish.
The blood-red tip of the knife was pointed firmly at Chu Qianhuang.
Her eyes, which had been washed by tears, seemed to be stained red by blood. They were like those of a wild beast or a monster, extremely ferocious.
"You forced me to do this." Aunt Jiang said softly, and the tail of her words was blown away by the wind.
Chu Qianhuang looked straight at Aunt Jiang's face. The pitiful look on her face was no longer there. Her expression was so cold and vicious, and her facial features were hideously distorted, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue.
Chu Qianhuang felt the wound hurt even more. At the same time, a chill crept up her spine and instantly reached the top of her head.
The scene in the dream appeared clearly in her mind, overlapping with the scene before her.
This scene is exactly the same as in the dream.
In the dream, Aunt Jiang also held a dagger in this posture and stabbed Chu Qianhuang to death with one knife.
how so?!
Everything in the dream actually happened so many years in advance. This should have happened more than ten years later.
It shouldn't be like this! It shouldn't be like this!!
Chu Qianhuang screamed silently in her heart, feeling her body getting colder and colder as the blood flowed from the wound.
The words Shen Qianchen had said when he came to her just now rang in her ears: "You can know the future, right?"
"Then, can you know whether you will live or die?"
Will she live or die?
Chu Qianhuang asked herself.
Obviously, before today, she was very sure that she could escape. She just needed to wait here for the right opportunity and wait for Gu Jue to pass away...
But at this moment, Chu Qianhuang could no longer be sure.
Will she die here, today? Chu Qianhuang felt the power in her body flowing away like a flood breaking through a dam. She was trembling slightly from her feet to her body. She felt weak, powerless, and cold.
She slid down slowly, slowly, with her back against the tree trunk, and then sat on the ground, her hands still pressing tightly against the wound left by the dagger.
Aunt Jiang did not move. She stood a few steps away like an ice sculpture, looking at Chu Qianhuang quietly with an expressionless face.
Aunt Jiang said again, "You shouldn't force me." Her voice was soft and gentle.
She didn't know whether she was trying to convince herself or declare it to Chu Qianhuang.
To her, anyone who could pose a threat to Chu Yunyi should not exist.
After all, Chu Qianhuang is the eldest sister, and even if she dies, Chu Yunyi doesn't have to observe mourning for her. This is perfect, she can help Chu Yunyi put an end to it once and for all and prevent future troubles.
Now that Chu Qianhuang is dead, no one will use Chu Yunyi's life to "save the emperor" anymore!
Aunt Jiang smiled, a gentle and sweet smile on the corners of her lips, but against the backdrop of the blood splattered on her body and the bloody dagger, her temperament seemed unusually enchanting.
“Pah…”
Something fell to the ground from behind, and then a few beads rolled over.
They are finger-sized rosewood beads.
Aunt Jiang stepped on one of the beads and looked in the direction the bead rolled from. She saw the lady in a green jacket looking at Aunt Jiang and Chu Qianhuang with a pale face, still in shock, next to the rockery two meters away.
There were still a dozen red sandalwood beads spinning around the old lady's feet. It was obvious that the broken bracelet was dropped by her.
"You...you..." The lady said incoherently, her wrinkled old face full of fear.
In fact, she arrived half a cup of tea ago and heard Aunt Jiang and Chu Qianhuang arguing. What they said was completely beyond her imagination. She was so frightened that she almost had a heart attack and fainted.
She still took a reassurance pill before she came to her senses. At first, she didn't believe that it was Aunt Jiang who paralyzed Chu Lingxiao, and thought that Chu Qianhuang was talking nonsense, but Aunt Jiang actually killed Chu Qianhuang.
Now that things have developed to this point, the Madam can no longer disbelieve it.
It turned out that Jiang Minshan was the one who poisoned her eldest son. Even the broken back of her second son was related to Jiang Minshan! (End of this chapter)
