Fourth Lord's Black Moonlight Queen

Chapter 20 Jealousy

At this time, Nian Gengyao walked out of the door of the wing with a pale face while holding on to the railing, holding a bloody long sword in his hand. "

"I'm sorry, I didn't want to trouble you, but I really don't know who else I can ask for help!"

Nian Gengyao gritted his teeth, and knelt down on his knees with a plop, kowtowing to Yinzhen nonstop.

"If the fourth elder brother can rescue the slave's younger sister and parents today, the slave's life will be the fourth elder brother's. Nian Gengyao swears that he will repay your life-saving grace even if he is a cow for the rest of his life!"

"The reason why the slave's mother, Mrs. Bai, is missing is because the slave's father handed over the order of the head of the Nian family to the slave's mother before he became seriously ill."

"If the fourth elder brother can help, when the slave takes over the position of master, the Nian clan will be at the mercy of the elder brother."

Nian Gengyao's words were so straightforward that Li Jingui could understand the meaning, let alone the fourth elder brother.

When Nalan saw her for the first time, she seemed to be grasping at straws. She followed Nian Gengyao and knelt down towards the fourth elder brother.

"Although the slave is a concubine, but the slave's Amanalan Rongruo is a slave to a precious daughter."

"The servant's Mafa loves the servant the most, and the servant still has some say in the Nalan family. If the fourth elder brother is willing to help, Nalan will never forget his deep kindness at first sight!"

"This prince is only here to help Li Jingui, as for what you said is right and wrong, this prince doesn't want to know at all!"

"This world belongs to Huang Ama, and you can only serve Huang Ama alone. Nian Xialing and Nalan Mingzhu never taught you what is called a pure minister?"

Yinzhen asked in a deep voice with some displeasure. The two people speculated that he wanted to win people's hearts. If it got to Huang Ama's ears, he would not be able to explain it.

Nian Gengyao and Nalan Chu saw that their minds were too simple, and there were many people in the inn with miscellaneous eyes. If someone with a heart heard what they said, they would definitely think that the fourth elder brother was forming a clique for personal gain.

"Don't talk so much nonsense! Tell me how to rescue Xiaodie now, and how to find Nian Gengyao's mother! If you wait any longer, the day lily will be cold!"

Lan Qi'er really couldn't stand the faces of these people who tried to test each other.

So he interrupted their conversation impatiently.At this time, Tang Liuying, who was inquiring for information, also hurried back to the wing.

"Found it! Miss Xiaodie was imprisoned in the chieftain's mansion, but Nianbai's family is still missing. For the current plan, the only way to rescue Miss Xiaodie is to go to the chieftain's mansion at night!"

"One more thing, it should be helpful for Mr. Nian to regain the position of the Patriarch of the Nian family! It's about the secret of the Long family."

It was already midnight, and outside the back wall of the Chieftain's Mansion on the banks of the Xiangjiang River, there was a huge black hole half a person's height, and a pungent and foul-smelling sewage was flowing.

Under the bleak cold moon, pieces of red objects resembling rotten meat can be vaguely seen.

Those objects were washed into the water of the Xiangjiang River with the current, and suddenly a group of fish scrambling for food frantically surrounded them and began to tear and grab food.

Li Jingui, who was paddling a boat, got closer and found that the red objects were unknown rotten meat similar to cattle and sheep.

It's just that it was stirred by something and couldn't see its original shape.

"It smells so nauseous!"

Li Jingui leaned against the wall, rubbing his sore forehead against the wind.Resisting the urge to gag.

"Jingui... If you're feeling overwhelmed, just tell me, everyone can help you find a way~"

Lan Qier had a perceptive smirk, and her perceptive eyes wandered back and forth between Li Jingui and the fourth elder brother.

"Lanzier!"

Li Jingui looked embarrassed, and said angrily with downcast eyes, Lan Qier could only laugh a few times in embarrassment.

"Huh? What the hell are these?"

Lan Qier, who is full of curiosity, naturally wants to carefully observe and find out when facing unknown things.

"beauty!"

Lan Qier looked around curiously.Apart from her being the most beautiful, there is no other beauty.

"Where are the beauties?"

Lan Qi'er used the Hidden Sword that he carried with him to pull the pile of rotten meat.Bian asked suspiciously.

"I said the pile of meat you are fiddled with now is the meat of a beauty."

Tang Liuying explained again kindly.

"Depend on!!"

Lan Qier stood up in fright, with a look of shock on his face.

"There are even more extremes. I heard that the missing girls nearby are all related to the chieftain's mansion."

Tang Liuying sneered and asked Nian Gengyao, who was looking livid, sarcastically.

Nian Gengyao's face suddenly changed, and he immediately retorted:
"It's just a rumor, and I'm a Han Chinese, how could I know about the Long family? Don't talk about these non-existent things!"

"Oh? Then I'll let you see the rumors with your own eyes. Let's go. The best show is yet to come~"

"I heard that the young wife of the governor of Huguang, Longshi, is the saint of the Hongmiao clan.

Although she is a middle-aged mistress, her appearance is like a cardamom girl who is young and young in [-] years. "

"Young Master Nian, you asked us to go through danger to save people for you, but you are not honest with each other. Do you really want me to tell the truth for you?"

"Since the administration of Nian Xialing in Changsha Mansion, Yunying girls who have reached the age of fourteen have disappeared every year. Mr. Nian doesn't want to explain where the souls of these girls go?"

"Shut up! That's a sinful debt made by the Long family, and it has nothing to do with my Nian family! Those who killed those women were the Long family and her father, Long Kedi!"

"It has nothing to do with Nianshi!!"

Nian Gengyao angrily reiterated the innocence of the Nian clan, and he knew more or less about the evil deeds of the Long clan and his daughter.

But the Long family is the mistress of the Nian family, if the Long family is convicted, the Nian family will also be in danger.

"You're really deceiving yourself and others. Doesn't Mr. Nian know that it's a crime to see death without saving him?"

"I really don't know, I just want to save my sister and parents, I can take them away from home, I can let the Nian clan remove Nian Gengyao's name from the family tree, as long as my sister and parents can live well .”

"I know it has nothing to do with you, otherwise you think you can still stand here and argue with me?"

Tang Liuying saw Nian Gengyao's distraught appearance, and knew that it would be too difficult for him to explain this matter personally at this time.

"Let's come down and talk about it. In order to maintain eternal youth, the Long family actually bathed with a woman's blood."

"At the cost of living life, to warm and nourish the skin!"

"And it's still alive!"

"what!"

"What's even more outrageous is that the person whose blood was taken alive had to wait for more than a day before dying. If the person whose blood was taken was fatal on the spot, the executioner would be executed."

"Their blood flows into the blood pool for bathing through the blood drainage groove placed under the device until they lose excessive blood and die of shock."

"I've heard about it, but no one has ever found the instruments of torture and the dead bodies of the victims. Rumors stop with the wise!"

These are just rumors. If there is no factual evidence and seeing is believing, Li Jingui simply cannot listen to one-sided words.

"Isn't the minced meat on the ground the missing girls! Look there!"

Everyone looked along the sewage pipe pointed by Tang Liuying's sword point, but saw that there were sharp knives on the route where the corpses flowed along the way.

These vertical tunnels are like bloody Shura fields leading to hell, filled with the rotten smell of sin.

And these corpses crushed by the sharp blades were wrapped in countless resentful spirits, and they were washed into the Xiangjiang River with the sewage to feed the fish in such a desolate way, without leaving any traces.

Smart as Nian Gengyao actually already guessed this.

But as a child of the Nian clan, seeing the honor of the Nian clan being trampled by the dirty and ugly crimes of the Long clan, he can only choose to remain silent to escape the ugly truth.

Everyone groped along the dark corridor and came to a round secret door after a while.

"Shh! Someone's up there!"

Tang Liuying lowered her voice and made a silent gesture.A charming female voice came out faintly.

"Cough cough cough cough, I'm not dead yet! It's not your turn to be the master this year!"

"Young age! You don't want to toast and eat fine wine!"

"Heh, although I, Long Qingqiu, have been your legal wife in name for the past 17 years, my life is not as good as a widow whose husband died!"

"You and Bai Rumei ruined my life! Don't you guys feel any guilt?"

"I just want my son to be the head of the family! Is this too much?"

The woman asked angrily, she called herself Long Qingqiu, but who was Nian Gengyao's aunt Longshi?
"Your Majesty bestowed the marriage, you and I just followed the will, I didn't treat you harshly."

"Hahahaha! What an emperor's order is hard to disobey, and what a good one who didn't treat him harshly!"

"Over the years, the story of your doting concubine and destroying your wife at such a young age has long been spread in the circle of officials and family members. Do you know how much cynicism and ridicule I have been subjected to?"

"Nian Xialing, if you don't want to see Bai Rumei, a bitch, die in front of you, you should obediently hand over the Patriarch's Order to my concubine!"

"Hmph, men are big pigs. When you see one and love the other, you only see the newcomer laughing but not the old one crying!"

Lan Qier muttered and cursed in a low voice.And Li Jingui also had some sympathy for the situation of the Long family.

The palm of the hand warmed up, and the slightly chilly hand was held by the fourth elder brother who was next to her.

Seeing him staring at her aggrievedly, Li Jingui couldn't help laughing.

"understood……"

She responded softly, only then saw his frowning brows relax.

"Long Qingqiu! Cough cough cough cough...what are you going to do! Let her go!"

There was the sound of a heavy object rolling down from a high place, as if the old man had fallen from the bed.

"Long Qingqiu!! Let her go!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, look at her! She is old and faded, even the skin is full of fine lines, and there is this face!"

"If I lost to a younger and more beautiful woman, I wouldn't be so aggrieved!"

"Why did I lose at the hands of such an old and ugly woman! I'm not reconciled! I hate it so much!"

"You let her go!!!"

"Oh, look, you hold a woman who can't even look down on these two lowly old beggars like pearls and jade all your life! You are so blind!"

Everyone finally understood, it turned out that the vicious Long family wanted to be blackmailed by beggars in front of the seriously ill Nian Yaling.

"Use the sweat medicine first!"

Yinzhen dragged the irrational Nian Gengyao back, and calmly gave instructions.

"Go away! Don't touch her! Go away!"

"As eyebrows!"

"Nian Xialing, why are you crawling on the ground like a dog? Don't you even want human dignity for this woman?"

The more he ignored Bai's rage for the crown, the more frustrated Long became.

"Rumei! Wake up! Long Qingqiu! What did you do to Rumei?"

"Please, please, I will tell you, old age! Kneel down and beg me! I will tell you, a gentleman is hard to follow!"

Long Qingqiu laughed out loud almost insanely.

"I...I beg you...let her go...as long as you let her go, everything in the Nian family is yours! I beg you!"

Plop, plop, heavy kowtow pierced into the eardrums, I didn't expect that the young and beloved woman who had power over the government and the public could abandon her dignity, it was really touching.

"He is so stupid! The more he is like this, the more extreme Long will be!"

Yinzhen shook his head helplessly, at this time Tang Liuying and Ma Qi also began to take out the Mongolian sweat medicine to deal with the person who was talking in the room.

"Well... I didn't tell you, I'm not a gentleman, but a woman in a backyard?"

"Poison woman! You backtrack on what you say!"

"As eyebrows!!!"

Sure enough, Nian Xialing's exclamation was soon heard, and everyone secretly thought that something was wrong, and they didn't care too much, they rushed through the secret door and entered the room.

The strange thing is that there is half a figure in the room at this time?At this moment, fine air bubbles appeared in the blood pool.

"come out!"

A figure slowly emerged from the originally calm and empty pool of blood.

Under the bright lights in front of her eyes, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl with picturesque features was looking in horror at the unexpected guest who suddenly appeared.

At this moment, she was soaking in the steaming red blood pool.

"Where is Long Qingqiu! Where are my father and mother!"

Nian Gengyao drew his sword and pointed at the girl soaked in the pool of blood.

"Strange! I heard them arguing just now, why did they transfer so quickly!"

"Have you seen enough!"

The girl in the blood pool put away her fear and smiled mockingly.

He stood up slowly.

The fourth elder brother, Ma Qinian, Gengyao and the other men also did not expect that this woman would make such a shocking move, and they turned their backs in embarrassment for a while.

"Who are you... woo woo woo..."

The pear blossoms and the rain that the girl cried are pitiful.

"Save your energy. I'm a woman. It's useless to do this to my aunt. The more you do this, the more I will tear off your beautiful skin! See what monsters and ghosts are hiding in your bones!"

Lan Qier hated this kind of artificial dodder the most.I really don't understand why most men like such women.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand!"

"I'm just the concubine of Dragon Priest Xinna. Are you looking for the eldest lady? She's in Taiwei Pavilion!"

"There is also my uncle, my uncle should be with the young lady at this time, and the young lady has been taking care of my uncle who is seriously ill for the past few days!"

The woman wiped the corners of her eyes innocently, and finally stopped crying.

"I really don't know about other things, please let me live, I promise I won't tell anyone I've seen you!"

The "Miss" and "Uncle" in her mouth naturally refer to Long Qingqiu and Nian Xialing.The high priest is naturally Long Qingqiu's father, Long Kedi.

"Can you let me get up first? This spaghetti can't be soaked for too long, I feel so uncomfortable"

She covered her heart with a painful expression on her face.

It turned out that the red water was the medicinal juice of Millet Spatholobus, no wonder there was a strange herbal aroma, Li Jingui thought it was human blood.

"Get up, don't make any fools, otherwise I really want you to look good, if you dare to shout, don't blame me for slipping and making you look bad!"

Lan Qier shook the sharp blade in his hand impatiently.

"Don't worry, how can I, a weak woman, defeat so many of you, I'm really sad, please."

"Then hurry up! Are you delaying the Chinese New Year!!"

Lan Qi'er saw how pitiful she was trembling, so she scolded her with a sharp mouth and a bean curd heart.

The girl got up from the pool of blood with lotus steps after hearing this, then turned around and walked behind the screen to change her clothes.

"Click, click, click..."

Suddenly there was a strange sound behind the screen.

"No, this is the sound of the mechanism pulling, the woman moved her hands and feet!"

Immediately outside the door was the sound of weapons and armor colliding.

"Miss, how are you?"

"Help! Come in and catch the assassin!"

The girl's shrill cry for help made people's eardrums hurt, and some servants were banging on the door frantically, almost breaking the nanmu gate with thick arms.

"Grandma, I shouldn't be soft-hearted!"

Lan Qi'er flew forward and fell on the screen, only to see that the girl was safely covered under a golden bell cover, and she couldn't even see her figure.

"Shhhhhh!!"

Several clusters of hidden arrows rushed towards her face, but she dodged them deftly. After the arrows fell into the blood pool, the blood was completely black.

"You want me to die! You vicious little bitch!"

"You think it's okay like this? I'll let you taste the must-have disfigurement at home—jealous beauty!"

Tang Liuying put on sheepskin gloves and took out a small pill, ignited it carefully and threw it into the air outlet of the golden bell cover.

"go!"

Everyone got into the tunnel hidden in the dark cabinet again.

"Ahhh!! It's so itchy! What is this thing!! It hurts so much!"

The girl's screams resounded throughout the building, and when the servants rushed in, they didn't even see Li Jingui and the others.

"Her face is ruined now!"

"Hmph, it's all cheap for her. I just want her to look good. The next time I see you, I'll stab this femme fatale to death!"

"As long as she doesn't take the initiative to scratch, nothing will happen after an hour, Amitabha, it seems that I am still too kind!"

"Come on, the name of your broken medicine is so evil, no normal person can survive it!"

"I still can't figure out why we couldn't find anyone after we rushed in even though we were so close at hand!"

Li Jingui couldn't understand it.

"No! That woman is Long Qingqiu!"

Nian Gengyao suddenly realized that he was too careless to underestimate the enemy.

"Every five years, Long Qingqiu must go back to this chieftain's mansion for a short stay for a month. When she returns to Nian's house, she will always have an indescribably strange appearance!"

"No wonder her eyes look familiar, let's go back!"

Nian Gengyao, who was belatedly aware of it, was very annoyed.But now that he has already startled the snake, if he turns back, he will have no chance of winning.

"It's ventriloquism!"

Yinzhen, who was silent all the way, finally cleared his mind.

"From the moment we stepped into the chieftain's mansion, Long Qingqiu had already discovered our whereabouts. From the beginning to the end, she was setting up a trap for us to fall into the trap."

"It's a ventriloquist or not a ventriloquist."

"What does that mean?"

What the fourth elder brother said was cloudy and vague, and Li Jingui was a little dizzy.

"There are echo walls inside those secret doors. We thought they were just separated by a wall. In fact, it may not be that there is no relationship between them."

"Between reality and reality, people are confused. This is a kind of demagogic formation."

"If the woman we saw was Long Qingqiu, then who was the voice that humiliated Nian Xialing? A ventriloquist imitating it?"

"The formation is divided into heaven and earth gossip and the gate of life and death. If you guessed correctly, then under the blood pool is the entrance leading to Nian Xialing's place!"

"Nian Xialing is indeed in Taiwei Pavilion!"

Xu Zhen observed the topographical map of Tusi Mansion for a long time with the dim Huozhezi, and said firmly.

"Her way of setting up doubts is really clever! If we realize that she is Long Qingqiu, then we will not be in danger at all. No one will be so stupid as to go to the tiger mountain knowing that there are tigers in the mountain."

This woman is very scheming, and her tricks of scheming people's hearts are indeed powerful. If she is allowed to escape, there will be endless troubles.

"It's not too late, before Long Qingqiu has completely defended himself, let's go to the Taiwei Pavilion to save people!"

Yinzhen began to order everyone to act in an orderly manner.

"Ma Qi and Ertai, you two find a way to capture Nian Xiyao alive!"

Since Long Qingqiu is able to hold hostages, they will return them in the same way.With her own son as a hostage, she has a better chance of winning.

"The rest of us will go to Taiwei Pavilion together."

Just when everyone was about to split up, there were bursts of rapid drumming from all around.

"Boom boom boom!"

"No, that's the Miao people's drum to welcome the enemy! Foreign enemies broke into the chieftain's mansion!"

Tang Liuying drew out the sword at her waist, and guarded it cautiously in front of Li Jingui. The young master had specifically explained that she had to protect Miss Jingui, but she couldn't control the others so leniently.

"The enemy's enemy is our ally! What's more, it's the Nian family's confidant in the army!" Yinzhen said with confidence.

I still remember that after the abrupt beauty that night, in order to avoid the embarrassment of meeting, he took the initiative to ask His Highness the Prince for orders to inspect the barracks.

But he didn't want to go back to the palace, but there was no sign of Li Jingui. After careful questioning, he found out that she followed Lan Qier to Changsha Mansion to rescue Nian Gengyao.

Of course he knew about the Nian family's affairs. His Royal Highness wanted Nian Xiyao to be the new head of the Nian family, so he naturally didn't want to disobey His Royal Highness's intentions.

"This time he came to Changsha Mansion not only with the emperor's order, but also with the order of His Royal Highness, which is to assist Nian Xiyao to take the position of Patriarch Nian."

He thought he could stay out of the matter, but he didn't want to be involved in it involuntarily. Now that he was riding a tiger, he didn't complain.

Whoever called her Li Jingui, even if she broke the sky, he would try his best to deal with the aftermath for her.

The problem cannot be solved by relying on the blood and bones, and the only way to stop killing is to kill at critical moments.

At this time, the sound of killing outside the door was loud, and not long after, several soldiers in armor rushed over.

"Second Young Master, Long Kedi and Eldest Young Master are holding our family members hostage, threatening that if we don't submit to Eldest Young Master today, we will execute them in public!"

It turned out that it was the confidants of the Nian family's army who came to support, and the two generals of the Nian family who came with Nian Gengyao finally couldn't help but worry.

Nian Gengyao grew up in the Nian family's army since he was a child, and without the backbone of Nian Xialing, everyone in the army naturally only looked up to Nian Gengyao.

When everyone rushed to the front yard, they saw hundreds of old and weak women and children with sharp swords on their necks on the high altar.Among them are many family members who look calm and composed,

But most of the family members who were held hostage were trembling with fright, crying and calling for help to their relatives.

"Mother save me!"

Nian Xiyao had already turned pale with fright, and kept howling at Long Qingqiu and his daughter on the altar.

The scene in front of him made people feel depressing and solemn. On the three-foot-high altar, Li Jingui saw the bound Nian Xialing's family.

On top of a mountain of firewood, a girl in white was staring at the crowd with empty eyes.

"Grandpa, someone caught it!"

Ma Qi and Ertai, who had not been seen for a long time, threw the tied-up Nian Xiyao on the ground.

At this time, Nian Xiyao had a rag stuffed in his mouth, and when he looked closely, he saw that there was a puddle of water stains on his outer robe, which made him pee in fright...

"Bring him here, I have something to say to him alone!"

This worthless wretch was so scared that he peed on his pants.Yinzhen somewhat hated iron for being weak, and ruthlessly gouged out Nian Xiyao who was curled up on the ground like a puddle of mud.

But helplessly, his mission is to help this mud up the wall.

Li Jingui watched as the fourth elder brother dragged Nian Xiyao into the dark and didn't know what to do. After about half a stick of incense, Nian Xiyao was escorted to the altar again.

"Nian Gengyao! Let my son go! Otherwise, I'll let these people be buried with me!"

"Sister! Mother! Father!"

Nian Gengyao looked at his relatives who were being held around their necks with knives, and his eyes were reddened. He raised his sword and was about to rush forward to fight to the death.

"Nian Gengyao! Are you surrendering or not? Do you really want to see your good sister's blood splattered on the spot?"

"The position of Patriarch is nothing more than a mere patriarch, but you have the heart to pave it with the blood and bones of your loved ones!"

Long Qingqiu sarcastically said.

"Recalling how strange my father's illness is, could it be that you, mother and son, poisoned him!"

Nian Gengyao suddenly realized something, and asked decisively.

"You're talking nonsense. When it comes to my father's illness, I haven't asked you to blame me, but you're going to turn right and wrong first."

Nian Xiyao hurriedly explained.

"The entire Nian family knows that before going to the capital, my young master has been in the military camp without any skills. How can I murder my father?"

"It's you, the second brother! Father favors Aunt Bai to the point of being indiscriminate. Could it be that Aunt Bai and you are relying on your father's backing to have something you shouldn't have?"

"My Nian Gengyao made an oath on my own reputation and future! If my father's illness has anything to do with me, my Nian Gengyao will definitely die! Five thunders strike!"

"Brother, do you and your mother have the guts to swear to prove your innocence?"

"Nian Gengyao! The person my father loves the most is me! How could I do something so inferior to a pig or a dog!"

"Old witch! You're not dead yet!" Tang Liuying said as she threw a dart.

The servants next to him were caught off guard, and when they returned to defense, the veil covering Long Qingqiu's face had already been shot down by a hidden weapon, revealing a series of scabbed scars.

"Tsk tsk, this little tender muscle recovers faster than the rough-skinned and thick-skinned little Cui next door to my house..."

"Who is Xiao Cui?"

"Oh, the old sow next door to my house."

Tang Liuying kindly explained to Lan Qier who asked the question.

"Mother!!"

Nian Gengyao watched his mother being tied up and dragged forward rudely by soldiers, his eyes were filled with tears of worry and distress.

On the other hand, Bai's face was covered with criss-crossing scars. Although her hairpin skirt was disheveled and in a mess, she was calm and indifferent, standing upright.

"Mother is fine, don't be afraid!"

She stopped looking at Nian Gengyao's motherly tenderness, turned around, with an angry face distorted, gritted her teeth and scolded Long Qingqiu:

"How dare you say that the master's illness has nothing to do with you! I found someone to check that the master's symptoms are caused by Gu poison."

"If you want the position of the head of the family, just take it. My son and I don't care about the position of the head of the family!"

"Let go of the master, one day husband and wife one hundred days of kindness, in the end it was me who made you unhappy, and the one who offended you was me! It was me, Bai Rumei!"

"The Patriarch's Token is on you! You can't think of it! The Patriarch's Token that you have been thinking about so much is worn on your head all day long!"

Bai Shi looked at Long Qingqiu's distorted face with sarcasm.

"Bitch!"

Long Qingqiu hastily tore off the purple jade hairpin from the topknot. This hairpin is a family heirloom of the Nian family, and only the main wife who is the mistress of the house is eligible to wear it.

She didn't have the favor of her husband in the Nian family, so she had the title of the first wife for nothing, so she naturally cared very much about the only thing that represented her status.So almost never leave the body.

This hairpin is the Patriarch's Order!

Her first wife was kept in the dark, but Bai's concubine knew it well.

It's no wonder that every time Bai Shi was pressed about the location of the Patriarch's order, she would have that sarcastic and mocking expression.

Long Qingqiu held the hairpin tightly in his hands, until the hairpin pierced her fingertips, and the pain filled her heart before she slowly recovered.

"Young! I hate you! What do you think of me?"

Long Qingqiu wept bitterly, held up the hairpin and rushed in front of the dying Nian Xialing.

I love this man so much that I hate him so much, I finally found out that half my life's infatuation was wrong. Since we can't live together, let's die together!
"master!!"

With a cry of surprise, Bai Shi broke free from the shackles and rushed in front of Nian Xialing, the hairpin in Long Qingqiu's hand pierced her heart impartially.

"Mother!"

"Don't come here! Don't take revenge! Take good care of your father and your sister, otherwise I won't be able to rest in peace..."

"Brother Xialing...Rumei...Rumei is one step ahead..."

"As eyebrows..."

Nian Yaling weakly called out the name of his beloved woman, but found in despair that he could only helplessly watch her lying in a pool of blood, close at hand, yet separated forever.

"Even if she dies, I'll be the same as him! You're just a concubine! Slut! Someone! Drag her down and burn her to ashes!"

"Long Qingqiu!"

Yinzhen put the long sword on Nian Xiyao's neck and shouted quietly.

"Nian Xialing or Nian Xiaodie, you choose one to exchange hostages! Otherwise, wouldn't it be a pity that you don't have a legitimate son to inherit this huge family business?"

"Xie'er! How dare you try to hurt him!"

"As eyebrows!!"

At this time, Nian Yaling stumbled towards the burning fire, but his long-sick body moved extremely slowly.

He was dragged back by Long Qingqiu, this man actually wanted to die for love.

"You want to die with him? Dreaming! I will order people to scatter her ashes into the Xiangjiang River, so that her soul can only wander all over the world."

"You two dogs and men, one is in the water after death, and the other is buried in the soil, and you will never be able to get together for life, hahaha!"

Even so, she still couldn't get rid of the anger in her heart.

"Hand over my son, this trash to you!"

Long Qingqiu raised his foot and kicked Nian Xialing off the altar, while Nian Gengyao took his father firmly into his arms with quick eyesight and hands.

Yinzhen also kept his promise, using his internal strength to throw Nian Xiyao onto the altar.

"Today I'm dealing with the Nian family's family affairs. My concubine Bai Rumei colluded with a foreigner to commit a scandal. Now I have dealt with her according to the Nian family law."

"How dare you mobilize the army for the mere matter of the back house. What do you want to do, Nian Gengyao? These soldiers belong to His Majesty, and you will not succeed in rebelling against him!"

"I, Nian Xiyao, guarantee as the new head of the Nian family! Today's matter ends here, and no one will be held accountable!"

"Mother, this is the end of today's business, let them go! Just expel Nian Gengyao and his siblings from the Nian clan and remove their names from the family tree!"

"And Dad, now his body is no longer suitable for continuing to be in politics, the crown prince has invited His Majesty a few days ago."

"In a few days, His Majesty's decree will come to cut him off. Now that he is no longer a threat to us, please let him go. He is my real father after all!"

"Give me back my sister! And my mother's remains!"

"I will never step into the Nian family again in this life!"

"Hehe, even if she looks like this, it's useless to you. Why don't you go underground to accompany her mother, so as to atone for Bai Rumei's sins!"

"Xiaodie!!"

"Mom! Let her go!"

Nian Xiyao snatched the torch from Long Qing's hand. How could she act recklessly in front of the fourth elder brother, but she couldn't reveal the true identity of the fourth elder brother.

"Xiyao, why have you become so timid today? If you don't wipe out Nian Gengyao's brother and sister, how can you keep the hard-won position of Patriarch!"

Long Qingqiu lowered his voice and scolded in a voice that the mother and son could hear.

How could she fail to see her son's abnormality and evasion, he was cowardly and incompetent since he was a child, and she, a mother, had to worry about every detail.

"Mother, no one can take away the position of head of the family. The son is backed by the crown prince! Mother! Just listen to me!"

"Now that we are in a situation where we can't recover from the defeat, so what if we let that little bastard leave with daddy and that girl!"

"What are you afraid of? Now, the situation is full of our people inside and out, and the family members of those warriors are in our hands. Seeing that the victory is in our hands, why do you say that the defeat is over?"

"mother!!"

"Shut up! How did I give birth to such a wimp like you!"

"Daddy! Quickly order people to kill all these assassins!"

When Long Qingqiu turned his head, he found that his father standing behind him had a Hidden Sword stuck in his heart.

"father!!"

"Who... um..."

"Xiyao..."

She clutched her neck in pain, warm liquid gushed out, and her hands were covered in blood.

"brute!"

The murderer was her own son!She never dreamed that planning her whole life for this son would end in such a miserable end.

"Mother, you don't understand! My son is not filial! But if you insist on going your own way, everyone will die! My son doesn't want to die!"

Long Qingqiu, who did many evil things, died at the hands of his most beloved biological son in the end, what a retribution.

"Nian Gengyao! From today onwards, you will not be a descendant of my Nian family. Take your sister and father to leave Nian's house and Changsha mansion before I repent!"

"My mother and grandfather have died to apologize, you and I owe each other nothing!"

"Nian Gengyao, I can only protect you so far! There is still a long way to go."

Now he has done his best in this ending, if he insists on going his own way, he will definitely offend His Highness the Crown Prince, and then the lives of Nian's brothers and sisters and Nian Yaling will be lost.

"But…"

"Geng Yao...I have already lost your mother, do you still want me to lose you and Xiaodie? Give me the sword and let me go with your mother..."

Nian Yaling was the first to realize that the young man in front of him must be of extraordinary status.

If you look closely, you can find His Majesty's shadow on his face.

Reminiscent of the situation of the two sons in the Forbidden City, the identity of the person in front of him is clearly revealed.

"The guilty minister pays homage to the fourth elder brother at a young age!"

"My lord, you don't have to be so polite, this prince is only following orders."

"Si elder brother, Nian Gengyao will always keep your kindness in mind! Don't say thank you for your kindness! The slave's life will be assigned to Si elder brother from today!"

Nian Gengyao knelt down in front of the fourth elder brother gratefully, and said to the fourth elder brother in a low voice.

And Nian Xiyao, who was on the altar, was crawling on the ground and trembling with fright, he didn't even dare to look in the direction of the fourth elder brother.
