Chapter 225

Meng Ran saw that both of them were in a daze after reading the letter, so he couldn't help asking, "What is Die Shuang's request?"


Xue Yi came back to his senses first, and replied in a low voice:

"She explained that at the time of Rixu, the Shilipo Mountain Temple in Niujiazhuang outside the city, let me take Shu'er alone, otherwise it will be bad for Buhui."


Meng Ran frowned and said:


"This is a bit difficult. The place is wide and flat at the foot of the mountain, while the mountain is covered with dense forests, and it is difficult for our people to approach."


"Since Die Shuang wants me to go alone, I must be prepared. Then there must be troops of the Seventh Prince's cronies inside and outside the mountain. No matter what, I must go."


Xue Yi had been thinking about it for a full month, and this uneasy heart had already lost its calmness.


She didn't know how Buhui, who was still in her infancy, survived this month, and she even wondered if she would—


She didn't dare to think about it, so no matter what happened tomorrow, she had to go to Shilipo first, and she could feel at ease when she saw no regrets!

The next day, a misty ray of sunlight melted into the thick gray-blue clouds.


Burning peach blossoms are blooming all the way, and a carriage is galloping on the gravel road in the outskirts. She is dressed in white clothes, with a wide-brimmed hat with white gauze on her head.


Xue Yi lashed the horsewhip vigorously, drove the carriage fast, and headed for Shilipo in Niujiazhuang.


At this moment, Biegong.


It was already afternoon when Shangguan Fenglan woke up. She used her internal strength for two hours to force out the silver needle on the acupoint, rubbed her sore neck, and there was some anger in her eyes.


Unexpectedly, Xue Yi would have guessed his thoughts in advance, he wanted to touch her faint point, and went to Shilipo by himself, but he was just about to strike, but she slyly diverted his attention, and the silver needle pierced his neck In the hole, he sealed his acupoints again.


Looking at the dusk sky outside the window, at this time, Xueyi probably has almost reached Shilipo.


At dusk and evening, smoke from cooking houses is everywhere in the countryside.


Green mountains and green waters, mountains and mountains.


Xue Yi was not in the mood to appreciate the boundless natural scenery, and even the fresh mountain air could not dispel the heavy feeling in her heart. She sat in the carriage with Shu'er in her arms, and looked out of the carriage window from time to time.


Fields, mountains, rivers and people pass by in a hurry and forget them.


Shu'er has a pair of glass-like eyes on her rosy face, and her little red mouth is babbling non-stop, with a line of sticky saliva always hanging from the corner of her mouth, she looks very clever and cute.


"'Madam', ten lipo is ahead!"


The coachman outside the carriage shouted.


Xue Yi felt the cold air coming from the mountains, she tightened the cloak on Shu'er, the carriage stopped, and got out of the carriage with Shu'er in her arms.


I gave the coachman a piece of money, and the coachman pointed the way, "Madam, walk along the road from here, and you can reach the mountain temple in less than half an hour."


"Thank you, old man."


"It's late at night, madam, be careful all the way."


The old man put away the money, and the carriage drove back again.


Taking advantage of the still light in the sky, Xueyi hurried up the bluestone steps into the mountain with Shu'er in his arms.


Not long after walking in the mountains, I saw some common people's houses, the sky was getting dark quickly, Shu'er in her arms became a little uneasy.


While coaxing, she kept walking towards the mountain temple.


About half an hour later, several people appeared on the road in the forest. Xue Yi took a closer look and found that they were guards in official uniforms.


"who!"


"The person you are waiting for."


Xue Yi took off the bamboo hat, revealing his face.


Those people sized her up and led her into the mountain temple.


The old-fashioned old temple has been around for many years, but it is still a place where people offer incense and worship gods. Therefore, although the temple is dilapidated, it is cleaned very cleanly, and the sandalwood candles are still intact. Temple people live.


As expected, Bai Dieshuang was there.


Seeing Shu'er, Dieshuang was obviously a little excited, her face was half covered with a black veil, her eyes were full of eagerness.


"Mother Zhou, bring the baby here!"


Die Shuang asked the servants to come up to hold the child, Xue Yi took a step back holding Shu'er, "Wait! I want to see my child first!"


Dieshuang stared at Xueyi with a hint of a smile, and raised her hand, "Come here, bring the child here."


But in the time for a cup of tea, the person who went down came back again, there was the cry of a child in the swaddle, Xue Yi's eyes were hot, and she was about to step forward to have a look without regret, Die Shuang stepped in front of her first.


"Show me my baby!"


"Hand over Shu'er first."


"I have to make sure that the child is not my regret!"


Xue Yi persisted and refused to hand over Shu'er.


Die Shuang smiled coldly and gave him a look, and the guard who held no regrets came over.


Xueyi only saw the baby in the swaddle clearly, and it's not a big deal if he doesn't regret seeing it, although he is not as round as Mo Li, but he has grown up a lot compared to a month ago.


Xueyi breathed a sigh of relief.


But she didn't let go of her vigilance, looked at Die Shuang coldly, and said: "What are you going to do to let my child go!"


Die Shuang held a icy smile, and her gaze was like the tip of a poisoned needle, piercing Xueyi viciously one after another.


She suddenly raised her hand and slapped Xue Yi's cheek to the side, and the left cheek was in hot pain, and Die Shuang's slender fingers patted her face lightly, "I can't see your icy face the most." You look lonely, what do I want, you don't understand, do you?"


Xue Yi turned her face back, with a trace of blood on the corner of her mouth, because of the staggering footsteps and the sound of the slap, Shu'er in her arms and Buhui beside her burst into tears.


Shu'er lay tightly on Xueyi's chest, when facing Dieshuang in her eyes, there was infinite fear and pity.


Die Shuang gritted her teeth fiercely, furious with pain and hatred.


This is her daughter, how can you be afraid of her!


Look, her ugly face scared even her own daughter, what was left of her.


Even her own daughter was bought by the enemy, what else did she desire.


As long as Nalan Xueyi dies, as long as she dies, she can extinguish this fire of hatred!

Butterfly's eyes instantly turned ferocious and cold, and she unconsciously stared at Shu'er in Xueyi's arms. Shu'er was crying heartbreakingly, holding onto Xueyi's hair with her small hands, refusing to let go, and kept yelling Mother.


"Die Shuang, you just want my life, I can give it to you, but I want you to let my daughter go first."


Die Shuang smiled coldly, stepped back a few steps and sat down to sip tea. After a while, she coldly shouted: "Come on, bring the child here and take her down!"


Xue Yi regained her composure after being slightly startled, she hugged Shu'er tightly, her mouth could not help but sneer, her eyes gleamed coldly as she stared at Dieshuang, "Dieshuang, if you don't want Shu'er to die of poison, then release my daughter." Now, send it to the palace, and I can stay here to detoxify Shu'er."


Die Shuang stood up abruptly, and the tea was overturned, but she regained her composure the next moment, and sneered: "Nalan Xueyi, you won't poison Shu'er, otherwise Shangguan Fenglan won't let her go You, how could you make him hate you, Shu'er is his daughter after all."


Xue Yi continued to sneer, her gaze was fixed without any trace of warmth, "Really, you want to take a gamble? In order not to regret it, I would not hesitate to be a villain, not to mention that Shu'er is your child, you You have already betrayed Feng Lang, do you think he will still value Shu'er?"


"you!"


Die Shuang suddenly became annoyed, stabbing at Xueyi with bloodshot eyes, grinning grinningly: "Well, Nalan Xueyi, you should die!"


"You forced me to do this. I just want to save my daughter."


Xue Yi's eyes were fixed on Buhui, and he tried his best to hide his anxiety and panic.


After a while, she heard Die Shuang's sneer laughing from the temple, her whole body shivered, and she started shaking as if entering a cold cellar, there was a fierce hatred that couldn't be hidden in that laughter.


Only Die Shuang laughed for a while, and said viciously: "Shu'er has long since denied me as a mother, she has already denied me as a mother, you have taken everything from me, now I am neither human nor ghost, even me My daughter is afraid of me, she is afraid of me! Very well, if Shu'er dies, I will use you to bury her with her."


Xue Yi was shocked when she heard this, and showed some panic: "Die Shuang, she is your daughter who was conceived in October, don't you even care about your own daughter's life?!"


"With you accompanying my Shu'er, Shu'er will not be lonely."


Die Shuang laughed so darkly that it made people tremble.


Xue Yi couldn't believe it, hatred could make the once beautiful woman so crazy.


"Take my child and take her to me!"


Die Shuang spoke in a cold voice, and immediately a group of guards came up to snatch him away.


Even though Xue Yi had a few skills, she was no match for a group of them, and she was afraid of hurting Shu'er, so she was restrained immediately.


"Die Shuang, I beg you, don't hurt my daughter, you want my life, you take it!"


Xue Yi never thought that Die Shuang was so crazy that she didn't even care about her daughter, so she became a little anxious at this moment.


Die Shuang smiled coldly, "Don't worry, she is still valuable, I will not let her die easily, as for you, I really can't wait to see you die without a place to bury you."


The sharp words paused, and cold eyes shot at Xue Yi: "You know how long I have been waiting for today!"


In the temple, Shu'er was crying hoarsely, tears, saliva and snot mixed on her pockets on her flushed little face, her fleshy little hands stretched out and kept grabbing in the direction of Xueyi, slurring her speech Calling mother, mother.

Eyes as clear as beads were full of terror and innocence.


The crying of the child is really heart-wrenching.


Bugui in the swaddling baby also cried earth-shatteringly. Looking at Shu'er, Dieshuang filled her heart with more and more hatred like weeds growing wildly, and waved her sleeves coldly:

"Mother Zhou! Don't take the child down yet! It's making me upset!"


"Hey, yes, the servant will take the child away!"


Zhou's mother immediately led the guards and carried the child into the back room.


Seeing that Bugui was taken away, Xueyi was dragged to death while struggling, and cried so much that his heart ached.


Die Shuang came forward, and the slender and crystal-clear Dan Kou stroked her face, raised her tearful face, and snorted a few times, "I really feel sorry for you, she is so charming. She is so charming. , when you are an ugly girl, you can seduce people. With this face, it will make every man fall in love with you. If it is not a disaster, it is what it is."


The slender nails scratched unconsciously on her pale face, the bright red blood seeped out of the skin instantly, Xue Yi immediately frowned.


"I really can't wait to know, after three days and three nights of soaking your face in sewage, will it still be so beautiful?"


After saying that, she laughed coldly, and gave the guard who captured her a look, only to feel a force on the back of her neck, and Xue Yi fell to the ground in response.


After waking up, the surroundings were dark and dark.


A pungent stench lingered in the nose, and the air was cloudy and humid, making it suffocating. When Xueyi woke up, she subconsciously struggled to get up and look around——


There is only a one-foot-square transom on the top of the left wall.


It took a while to get used to the night glowing through the window, and then I realized that this place is a deserted water prison, the ground is muddy, dirty and damp, and there are dots of dark waves on the surface of the water in the pool of water prison.


In the corner of the cell covered with moss, there are even clumps of plant reeds coming out of the ground, which can be seen as a water cell that has been abandoned for a long time.


Recalling what Die Shuang said before fainting.


Could it be that Dieshuang wanted to drown her in this water prison?

Is it still in Shilipo?

She thought about it, probably Die Shuang knocked her unconscious in order to prevent her from remembering the way and place.


Then this place may not be Shilipo anymore, but judging from the time and feeling, this place may still be in Niujiazhuang.


Suddenly, there was a faint yellow light swaying from a distance, and the sound of footsteps was facing where she was.


Xue Yi panicked.


—————————————————————————————————————————————————————— ——


During half a cup of tea, I heard the sound of chains outside, followed by oil lamps, besides Die Shuang, there were a few guards, and the dark water prison was lit up for a while, but under the lights, it only looked more dirty and filthy Unbearable.


"woke up?"


Dieshuang glanced at Xueyi's embarrassed appearance with a sneer, and said fiercely: "Don't say I am cruel, I will arrange you and your child in two places, if he comes to save you, your child will die, if he Save your daughter, you have to slowly drown here. You and the child, he can only save one, you say this is fun, isn't it fun? Will he... heartache? I really want to see His heart hurts, although the more he hurts, the more I hate him, but I still want to see him regretting infinitely, I love him, but I also hate him!"


After finishing speaking, a series of cold smiles appeared on the lips under the veil, and with a light wave of his hand, several guards came up and put on their snow clothes and plopped down into the pool.


"If you want to blame, you can blame him."


After saying the last word, Dieshuang smiled coldly, and walked out of the water prison without looking back.


In the narrow space, there will soon be the sound of rushing water flowing into the pool from the four corners, and it will rise in a very small and slow manner!

Xueyi's hands and feet were chained to the wall, unable to move.


The pool water was submerged in her chest at this moment, and an unpleasant stench filled her nostrils, making her want to vomit.


But all she thought about was Bugui, since Dieshuang said that, she must have left clues for Shangguan Fenglan to find Bugui.


At this moment, she only hopes that Shangguan Fenglan will not show up, and she must go to rescue him without regret!

Time passed minute by minute.


The water in the pool was rising higher and higher. Judging by the light coming in through the transom, it had been a day and a night. The snow clothes began to wear down, and the body soaked in the water was also swollen. When the last ray of light from the day slipped through the window.


bang——


Night covered everything.


The sound of running water had already spread to her jaw without a sound, and within two hours, this pool of water would cover her mouth and her breath!

———————————————————————————————————————————————— ——————————————————————


In the mountain temple, Shangguan Fenglan was brought to the temple.


Everyone else was blocked at the foot of the mountain.


As soon as Pu saw Shangguan Fenglan, Die's eyes became moist. Although she hated Shangguan Fenglan, when he stood in front of her, she still couldn't restrain the strong love in her heart.


After such a period of time, after so many things changed, she had an illusion for a moment, and ran over to hug him in a few steps, "Lan, you came to take me away, didn't you!"


Shangguan Fenglan's cold voice sounded: "Where are Bugui and Xue!"


Die Shuang was so startled that she took a few steps back, only to regain consciousness from the reality, and suddenly there was a wave of undercurrent in her eyes, and her cold expression was hot:

"You are so ruthless! Shangguan Fenglan, I hate you! She is the one who forced me step by step. I will not let her go! I hate her, I hate you!"


Die Shuang's hysteria, Die Shuang's appearance so strange that he could hardly recognize him, Shangguan Fenglan couldn't help clenching his fists, "Shuang'er, no one is forcing you, you have always been forcing yourself."


"Enough! I don't want to listen!"


Die Shuang scolded him loudly, her snow-white face was as pale as a piece of paper, she straightened up with a sneer while staring at the fire of hatred, "Shangguan Fenglan, I want you to be in pain for the rest of my life, I want to see you with my own eyes How did your child and the people you care about die!"


"What did you do to them!"


Shangguan Fenglan's eyes showed a little bit of coldness.


"They are still alive now, but I can't guarantee the next moment. The child and Nalan Xueyi, you can only save one. Lan, how do you choose?"


Die Shuang sneered: "If you save the child, Nalan Xueyi will die miserably. You are heartbroken? If you save Nalan Xueyi, the child will die. I think she will never forgive you in her life. , doesn't it feel good?"


After half an hour.


Down the ten mile slope.


"My lord, let the humble official lead someone to save the little princess who doesn't regret it! My lord, go save the princess!"


A subordinate spoke up.


Meng Ran curled her lips and said, "Since she arranged this trip, she was naturally prepared."


Looking at Shangguan Fenglan after speaking, Shangguan Fenglan's eyes had already agreed, "No matter which side, if you don't see me, the child and Xue will be in danger."


Meng Ran clenched her fist, gritted her teeth and said, "Did she leave some clues?!"


"The child is to the east of Niujiazhuang, and the snow is to the west."


Meng Ran's face became even uglier:

"This Niujiazhuang is the largest village in the suburbs of Beijing, with thousands of people, where can we find it?!"


Shangguan Fenglan's face turned pale, Meng Ran hesitated for a while, but still asked in his heart: "Master, which one to save!"


Shangguan Fenglan looked up to the west, stared fixedly for a while and turned around, "Go to the east entrance of the village!"


"My lord, really—disregarding the life and death of the princess?"


Meng Ran was a little unwilling and angry.


"If she had to choose, she would also choose to save the child."


Shangguan Fenglan said in a low voice.


"But--"


Shangguan Fenglan interrupted Meng Ran's next words with a raised hand, and ordered:


"Meng Ran, take 200 people and go to the east entrance of Zhuangzi to find a woman who has just given birth, and then find a house with goat milk!"


Meng Ran thought for a while, "My lord, you mean, following this clue, you can find the little princess faster and spare time to save the princess?!"


"No regrets must drink milk, I hope to find no regrets faster through this."


Even so, Meng Ran was worried that it would be too late to save Xue Yi.


Shangguan Fenglan got on his horse, kicked up a cloud of dust, and the pair galloped eastward.


Snow, be sure to wait for me!


The night is dark blue, with a cool luster, the water in the pool is rippling, overflowing Xueyi's mouth inch by inch——


The stench made her dizzy, and the pool water slapped the tip of her nose with her movements, almost drowning her breath.


Goo-goo-goo-


The nightingale chirped.


From time to time, guards who stayed behind outside the water prison came in to take a look, and then left indifferently.


The water flow rose faster and faster, rushing upwards, and her consciousness was very clear at this moment, the pool water poured into her nose, she tried to raise her head, her chest heaved violently, and took a breath desperately.


bang——


The surface of the water submerged her nose silently.


She was unable to lower her upturned head, and the water flooded her ears and eyes.


The sound of rumbling water rang in her ears, and she could no longer smell the pungent smell, but felt that her chest was about to burst.


The dark surface of the water swallowed her blackly.
