Chapter 153: The Cold-blooded Governor of the East Factory vs. the Vicious Aunt in the Deep Palace 4
Yingsi frowned: "What does this have to do with him?"
Mu Yunxiao couldn't bear to see her pretending to be stupid, so he grabbed her throat and said sternly:
"Stop pretending! Yun Xi is dead. Although I promised her that I wouldn't kill you, it doesn't mean I don't have other ways to torture you!"
Yingsi's throat tightened and her breathing was instantly blocked. She struggled and slapped his arm hard. He refused to let go, so she angrily slapped him in the face.
Mu Yunxiao probably didn't expect that she would dare to attack him. He was stunned for a moment and then let go.
Yingsi took two steps back, frowned and said angrily:
"Is it so difficult to explain clearly? I still don't know anything. The Queen and Wei Xuanzhi both want me to leave the palace. I don't understand who I am bothering!"
Mu Yunxiao poked the face that she hit with the tip of his tongue, and his anger rose, but he suddenly smiled.
"Okay, I'll tell you, the one who killed Yun Xi was Wei Xuanzhi, your Lord Wei. I heard that you once said in front of the emperor that you liked him? Then you should see more clearly what kind of heartless person he is."
It was like a bolt from the blue, and Yingsi was stunned.
"Wei Xuanzhi... killed the queen? That's impossible, he wouldn't kill..."
Seeing that her expression was too shocked, Mu Yunxiao sneered and pulled her out.
"If you don't believe it, then go and ask it yourself!"
After saying that, he asked someone to prepare a horse, and then took her directly to Wei Xuan's mansion.
When the factory workers at the door saw Mu Yunxiao, they lined up defensively.
Mu Yunxiao glanced at him and said sarcastically, "I am not here to cause trouble to him today. I am just sending him a person out of kindness. I hope he will thank me."
As if he was certain that Yingsi would turn against Wei Xuanzhi after seeing through his true nature, his expression contained a hint of contempt.
After saying that, he threw Yingsi down.
With lingering thoughts and angry eyes, he whipped the horse and walked away.
Seeing her, the factory workers respectfully moved aside to make way for her.
Standing in front of the mansion gate, Yingsi was a little hesitant.
Could it really be that Wei Xuanzhi killed the queen? The Li family had fallen, so he had no reason to kill the queen again.
The system did not indicate that there was a problem with the male protagonist's main storyline, so normally there should be no accidents.
Thinking of this, Yingsi still walked in with a skeptical attitude.
She had been here last time, and this time she found Wei Xuanzhi's room without the help of a messenger.
Without knocking, she pushed the door open and walked in.
The room was filled with the aroma of medicine, mixed with a strong smell of blood.
Yingsi frowned and continued walking inside.
Standing in front of the bed, he saw Wei Xuanzhi's face which was pale as a bloodless stone.
If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest proving that he was still alive, Yingsi would have almost thought that he was a dead person.
How could he become like this.
He didn't react even when she came so close to him, he must be seriously injured.
She gently lifted the quilt covering him, but her heart stopped suddenly when she saw the scene before her.
Below the neck, there is almost no good meat to be seen.
Every piece of flesh was flying around, and even after being processed, you could still see the knife or whip marks that penetrated deep into the bone.
Even the quilt covering him was soaked with blood.
The man with his eyes closed frowned at her touch, breathing heavier.
I've never seen him say it hurts, but at this moment, even such a light movement made him frown in pain.
You can imagine how painful it is.
How can I ask this? Who can even ask this?
She sighed dejectedly and prepared to leave.
The next moment, the fingertips hanging by my side were wrapped in coldness.
She turned around in surprise and found Wei Xuanzhi looking at her intently.
"Didn't I let you go..."
His voice was very soft and a little hoarse, and it was obvious that he was breathing very weakly.
She originally wanted to scold him, but seeing him like this, she suddenly lost her temper and even her tone softened.
"Without a home, where can I go?"
His eyelashes trembled, regret flashed in his eyes, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "It's me... I didn't think it through."
Yingsi pulled back her hand and said in a light voice: "I don't even know how many things your brain can think of. Can't you free up some space for me to know?"
He lowered his eyes to look at his empty palm and said in a low voice:
"The more you know, the less good it does you."
Yingsi moved a stool and sat beside his bed, whispering:
"Do I have to leave then? How have I hindered you? Why do you have to force me to leave?"
When she said this, her face looked a little aggrieved, and it was rare to see her with such an expression.
Wei Xuanzhi sighed softly, closed his eyes, and said softly: "With only him, I am powerless to fight him, and I can't protect you..."
Yingsi was silent for a moment, then raised an eyebrow: "Is it the Emperor?"
He nodded slightly.
Looking at his injuries, Yingsi suddenly understood something.
"He forced you to kill the queen?"
He opened his lips slightly: "The queen committed suicide, but I must bear the blame."
I was puzzled: "Why?"
He opened his eyes, and there seemed to be helplessness in his eyes.
"The Emperor will not allow the knife in his hand to get close to others. He has seen my cooperation with the Mu family. Only in this way can he separate me and the Mu family forever."
"This way, his throne and position in the Eastern Palace will no longer be threatened."
After thinking about it, I suddenly realized.
No wonder the Queen said such words on the day she sent her out of the palace. It turned out that she already knew her own fate.
When the prince came of age, his biological mother no longer had any need to exist.
How sad.
Yingsi paused and looked at him: "Then your injury..."
He curled his lips and smiled self-deprecatingly.
"If I go against the Emperor's wishes, I will be punished if I don't die. I will be spared for now, but it's not the right time yet."
So he was injured like this because he refused to kill the queen.
As a modern person, Yingsi really cannot understand this point.
Because of a suspicion that had not even been formed yet, he actually forced his own queen to death.
As for the ministers he admired, he was afraid of their betrayal, so he turned them into isolated ministers who were hated by everyone.
The emperor's scheming is really terrifying.
She could now finally understand the meaning of what he said to her that day: "The final winner can only be the emperor."
Damn feudal society!
After the queen's funeral, everything returned to normal.
The emperor got what he wanted, and Mu Yunxiao's family regarded Wei Xuanzhi as their mortal enemy.
Yingsi tried to explain to him, but Mu Yunxiao stubbornly believed that it was a lie by Wei Xuanzhi.
Or maybe, he knew what had happened, but still wanted to act like he would never have anything to do with Wei Xuanzhi again.
After all, they could not demand fairness and justice from the emperor, so they chose to compromise.
Wei Xuanzhi originally planned to send her to live in Lianzhou, but Ying thought that she had not yet accumulated the last ten points of favorability, so she refused to leave no matter what.
In a rage, Wei Xuanzhi packed her up overnight and sent her together with Jin Niangzi to the residence of Zhang Leqing, the governor of Lianzhou.
