Chapter 50 He wanted to kill.
Rong, who was sitting in the room, heard the noise outside just now.
She originally planned not to say anything and let the old woman send Rong Jianxue away, but now it seems that she can't do as she wishes!
Rong Jianxue pushed the door open and walked in, carrying the chill of Liang Yue.
As soon as he entered the room, he smelled an unusual fragrance in the bedroom.
Her face was so cold that it looked like water could seep out of it. Rong Jianxue said in a cold voice, facing Rong who was sitting on the armchair: "Mother, where is Pei?"
Rong frowned slightly and was stunned for a moment: "Pei? Didn't she go back to the West Courtyard?"
She still wanted to delay time.
The beads on her sleeves tightened, and Rong Jianxue's voice was hoarse and cold, "She is not in the west courtyard. After she came to my mother's room, I haven't seen her since."
"Maybe she couldn't stand it anymore and went out to play," Rong said to the maid, "I've always said that Pei is a restless person. Xuan Zhou hasn't been with her for a long time, so maybe she's gone out to fool around again!"
Rong Jianxue's finger bones turned white.
He ignored Rong and took two steps forward to check the incense burning on the table.
"What did mother just order?"
"What did you order?" Rong frowned and looked at Rong Jianxue with displeasure. "Jianxue, are you now doubting what I did to her?!"
Rong Jianxue met Rong's eyes directly and spoke word by word, "It's best if mother didn't do anything to her."
Choked by his words, Rong lowered her head guiltily and just kept fanning herself with her round fan.
"Young Master!"
In the distance, Jiang Hui finally came back and reported to Rong Jianxue breathlessly.
"Have you found it?" Rong Jianxue said in a deep voice.
Jiang Hui shook his head, frowning, "There's no young master. I've searched the nearby Chang'an Street market, but couldn't find him."
Rong suppressed the sneer on her lips and said in a cold voice, "She must have gone somewhere to have fun. When she comes back tomorrow, she must be severely punished!"
As she spoke, Rong waved the fan in her hand faster.
Jiang Hui's face was also very anxious. He looked at Rong Jianxue, not knowing what to do.
In fact, he knew in his heart that the old lady probably knew the whereabouts of the Second Lady, but she insisted that she didn't know. The young master didn't have sufficient evidence at the moment, so he couldn't torture her to extract a confession!
Rong Jianxue didn't say anything, but a visible chill spread from his body. In the bedroom, the candlelight jumped violently, making a few strange crackling sounds.
He looked outside the house, and the old woman who had just stopped him was as heavy as a thousand pounds, pressing him so hard that he couldn't breathe.
The Buddhist beads on her fingertips turned over, Rong Jianxue pursed her thin lips, and her dark eyes seemed to be able to ooze water.
finally.
He stopped stroking the Buddhist beads.
"Jiang Hui." He said coldly.
Jiang Hui responded, looked up at him, but his eyes widened!
The man took off the string of delicate and lustrous Buddhist beads from his wrist and handed it to him.
Jiang Hui's heart sank suddenly, and he said to himself, "Oh no!"
——The young master had murderous intentions.
Jiang Hui has been with the young master for many years, and the number of times he has taken off the Buddhist beads can be counted on one hand.
The most recent time was three years ago, when the emperor was assassinated during the autumn hunt, and Rong Jianxue was the only one by his side.
That day, he handed the Buddhist beads in his hand to the emperor and asked him to keep them for safekeeping. He rode alone and killed countless assassins. The smell of blood spread far away, even attracting the surrounding birds and beasts!
Rong Jianxue has been practicing in Randeng Temple for many years, but he is not a humble and kind-hearted person.
In the official career, relying solely on a Buddhist heart is far from enough.
Rong, who was standing by, was a little confused when she saw Rong Jianxue taking off the Buddhist beads.
——He never lets go of his Buddhist beads, and she has never seen Rong Jianxue take them off.
She only heard the man's voice, which was as cold as frost and piercing to the bone.
"Take the old woman away and beat her until she speaks."
Jiang Hui's eyes widened when he heard this: "Young Master..."
Without any substantial evidence, isn't this just... torture?
A glance swept over, Jiang Hui lowered his head, clasped his fists and replied "Yes".
After saying that, Jiang Hui walked to the door, grabbed the old woman's collar with one hand, and took her out!
The old woman had never seen such a scene before, and she looked at Rong in panic. She fell to her knees and begged Rong for help: "Madam, Madam! Madam! Please save this servant! Please save this servant!"
"How dare you!" Rong finally reacted and slammed the table. Her chest heaved with anger as she pointed at Rong Jianxue and screamed, "Rong Jianxue, what on earth do you want to do!?"
"Ms. Pei is not in my room, what are you asking my servants to confess?"
Rong Jianxue looked at Rong Shi with cold eyes: "We'll know whether you can spit out the contents after you beat him."
Rong was panicked when he heard this: "You, you are being tortured into confessing!"
"Mother, you can go to the Dali Temple to file a complaint!" Rong Jianxue refused to give in and her voice became a little louder.
His voice was like the crushed sand rolling over a glacier, low and slow: "After this, I will go and accept the punishment."
Rong Jianxue stared at Rong Shi, but then spoke to Jiang Hui outside the door: "In half a minute, make her speak, regardless of life or death."
Jiang Hui lowered his head and replied solemnly, "Yes."
Ignoring the old woman's wailing, Jiang Hui grabbed her collar and dragged her out of the main courtyard.
Rong looked into Rong Jianxue's eyes, felt a chill on her back, and stumbled back into the armchair.
…
In fact, it doesn’t take half a quarter of an hour.
The old woman was frightened out of her wits at the sight of the tricks Jiang Hui had learned in prison!
Before Jiang Hui could do anything, the old woman burst into tears and confessed everything in fear!
"Sir!"
In Rong's bedroom, Rong Jianxue was still confronting Rong.
He rarely took off the Buddhist beads in his hand, and his face was solemn and frighteningly cold.
Jiang Hui came running over almost as fast as a flash, his expression sullen and his brows furrowed. "Master, that old woman said—Second Lady, she was sold to a brothel!"
Almost in an instant, Rong Jianxue suddenly stood up, and before she could even see his figure clearly, a gust of wind blew past, and the man had already quickly walked out of the Rong Mansion!
Looking at Rong Jianxue's leaving back, Rong clutched the handrail tightly, hoping that by the time Rong Jianxue arrived, Pei Jingxu would have been defiled!
Baiyujing is about half an hour's walk away from Rong Mansion. Rong Jianxue rode his horse at full speed and arrived at Baiyujing in just a quarter of an hour!
Outside the boat, orioles are singing and swallows are dancing, some are thin and some are plump.
When a woman saw this handsome man, her eyes lit up and she quickly surrounded him: "Sir, you——"
The woman didn't say the rest of the words.
Jiang Hui brought a sword down on her shoulder.
Rong Jianxue's face was cold, and his voice was as icy as a pond: "Search."
Jiang Hui accepted the order: "Yes."
…
On the second floor of the boat, inside the house.
Pei Jing's thin clothes were so thick that they penetrated his bones, and he was in a state of confusion.
She panicked and pushed the man who was approaching her away, her voice weak and powerless: "Let me go! Get out of here!"
