After all, who lost whom: broken glass

Chapter 14 Su Xinyue (2)
Su Xinyue raised her head in a daze, and saw a golden horse Shining in the teapot, with its hooves flying, and its hair on the sideburns spread out, as if it was about to fly away, she couldn't help but blurted out: "Dancing horse with a cup and pot!"

Rong Yu still smiled lightly, "Miss Su, have you met?" He spoke very easily, but his lowered eyes couldn't help looking at Su Xinyue, thinking repeatedly in his heart: Do you want to bet on this?All together, sweat dripped from the palms of my hands, and I couldn't help praying silently: my ancestors have spirits in the sky, help me!
The dancing horse title cup is just a shape of a pot. Although it is not common in the market, it is not uncommon among royal utensils.Dancing horse teapots are often made of silver, with dancing horses engraved on the surface of the pot. The horse dancing teapot next to Rong Yu is made of crystal, and the dancing horse is carved in gold, standing in the center of the pot. Looking around proudly, the horse is very handsome.However, the most special thing about this pot is not the shape, but the golden horse in the pot has the ability to distinguish poison. If there is poison in the tea, the whole body of the dancing horse in the pot will be completely red.

At the beginning when the honored guest of Shuang Silin presented this pot, Su Xinyue thought it was normal and didn't care at all. Later, when Lin Lang came to visit and saw this pot, she was shocked and said: "This is originally my family's thing."

Anyone can get this peculiar dancing horse holding a cup pot, but only the people of the Tang clan know that it has the ability to distinguish poison.

Su Xinyue stood up and took her seat, and replied in a harsh voice, "I met you once 20 years ago, and I don't want to have a second chance in my lifetime."

Rong Yu said softly: "Then you look up at me, and you say, do I... resemble her?"

Su Xinyue stared at it for a long time, and said: "Your Majesty understands in her heart, why bother to ask?"

Rong Yu said: "You are very good at talking, Miss Su. Then tell me, how did Princess Pingliu die?"

When Su Xinyue heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, and then she smiled wryly: "How noble is Princess Pingliu, how can Xinyue know how humble she is from?"

Rong Yu chuckled, "Then please tell me Miss Su, who is so generous to redeem Miss Su?" Su Xinyue's face was still pale, but she calmed down instead. She even drank half a sip of tea, and then slowly Slowly said: "Your Majesty's real surname is Rong?"

Rong Yu's question was blurted out without thinking too much, not wanting Su Xinyue's reaction to be unusual, she thought in her heart: Could it be that Qin Xiang was not the one who redeemed her back then?Suspicion arose in his heart, but he only said indifferently: "Naturally, I am from the Rong family in Yuzhou."

Su Xinyue said: "That's it... Please accept this thing, Madam." She took out something from her sleeve, it was as light as smoke and as thin as a wing, it turned out to be a scroll of silk books.Rong Yu took it with both hands, but when he opened it, he couldn't see a single word, he was very confused.

But I heard Su Xinyue say: "It is said that there are sharks in the East Sea who are good at weaving silk. The shark's silk is several times thinner than ordinary silk, and the shark's silk melts in ink, so no one has ever used shark's silk to record events or pass on books. But Lin Lang once told me that the silk is not ink, but the blood is stored in the silk, and only relatives can see it. If the empress is really the Rong family of Yuzhou, you might as well turn off the lamp first, the silk has the effect of night light, I believe that the empress can get her wish."

Rong Yu held the silk silk, bowed his head in silence, and said for a long time, "Thank you, miss." She suddenly felt a kind of fear: if she didn't read this silk scroll, she would never know the truth in her entire life, and all her efforts would only be in vain. To survive, just to avoid being sent to Guanju Palace; but if after reading this scroll, she finds that she still has no way out and cannot change her fate, will she be more desperate and helpless than she is now?

She took a deep breath. Although watching or not watching may lead to the same ending, she still wanted to know the truth. She didn't want to be a fool for the rest of her life, like Concubine Yu, who was empty of beauty and talent, but could only die in the Wuxin Pavilion.

Rong Yu turned off the lamp, and as Su Xinyue said, she cut her finger and dripped blood on the gauze, and the gauze suddenly brightened, with a light halo, although it was not as brilliant as a night pearl, it was still enough to see things.Small characters slowly emerged on the silk, the color of rouge, I'm afraid it was really written in blood.

Looking intently, I saw the silk said:

"The person who can read this book should be a member of my Tang clan. The Tang clan was wiped out 20 years ago, and there are only a few people left. Only the Yuzhou clan was expelled for violating clan rules, or survived. The Tang family in Yuzhou has used the first character of the class as their surname for generations, as I expected. Those who read this book should take the surname Rong. The old patriarch said that the Tang family will never be destroyed, and the Tang surname will never be reused forever, and they must not leave Yuzhou Now that the Tang clan is extinct, I, in the name of the No. 30 patriarch of the Tang clan, allow the Tang clan of Yuzhou to restore their ancestral surname, and allow the Tang clan of Yuzhou to leave their hometown."

Seeing this, Rong Yu's eyes were sour, and he even shed tears.She was not young when the family changed, and her family was difficult in her memory. Her mother repeatedly mentioned the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River, and her father always said: "The ancestors say that you are not allowed to leave Yuzhou, so you should give up your heart." She couldn't stop, but her mother said without hesitation, "Your family name is no longer Tang, why do you still insist on this Laoshizi ancestor's precept!" She always remembered this sentence, and later asked her mother why her father's surname was Ruan and her own surname was Rong. ?Mother said, I will tell you in detail when you grow up.

But her mother was gone before she grew up, and every time she thought about her mother's failure to leave that barren land all her life, she felt very sad.

Rong Yu calmed down and looked down:
"The extinction of the Tang family originated from my father. My father's surname is Chu, and he was originally a descendant of the royal family of the Chen Kingdom. There were rumors in the world that when the Chen Kingdom was destroyed, there was a general named Dugu who collected wealth underground and guarded it for generations. Preserved by the descendants of the royal family. My father's temperament is indifferent, he has a heart of love for the mountains and rivers but no ambition to restore the country. When he was traveling in the rivers and lakes, he met my mother Tang. At this time, the treasures have been spread all over the rivers and lakes. My parents got married, and my mother was staunch, so she eloped with my father.

This matter was spread all over the world, and everyone said that my father had hired the treasure map for the Tang clan, so everyone criticized it.The Tang Sect already had many feuds in Jianghu, and everyone raised their voices again, so the Tang Sect was wiped out overnight, with ruins and bones scattered all over the place, and no one took care of them.

At that time, my parents were far away from the Central Plains. When the bad news came, my mother wept unceasingly, and the tears were all followed by blood.Later, he insisted on going back to Shuchuan for the funeral, but his father could not stop him, so they both returned to Sichuan.

The mother was ashamed of Tang Sect and determined to take revenge, and all kinds of things during this time cannot bear to be recounted.

Now the great hatred has been avenged, the culprit has been executed, and the mother has been buried in the ground with the father.In the future, those who see this letter in the Tang family can record it in the Tang family tree, but everything is over, so there is no need to pursue it.

Handwritten by Ruan Linlang"

The silk book ends here.The bloodstain solidified, and the handwriting disappeared line by line, and finally returned to the previous thick gray without any luster.

It turned out that Lin Lang's surname was Ruan, just like her own father, who took the first letter of her class as her surname as a punishment—the annihilation of the Tang clan was ultimately her parents' sin.It's just that in the future, Xin Yu's obsession and Liu Luo's pursuit of the bottom line are not what she expected.

There are still countless questions left in Rong Yu's mind: who is the Chou family, how did her mother find out the details of the Chou family, and how to take revenge, why did she become a dead soldier of King Ning, and since the Tang clan is extinct, who is that so-called senior brother? Who, and who will the treasure of her father's family end up with?She vaguely felt that the most critical link was missing, but she couldn't figure it out in a hurry.

She was about to open her mouth to ask Su Xinyue, when suddenly Zhiqi's voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, the emperor is here." Rong Yu rolled up the silk, put it in his sleeve, turned on the light in a calm manner, and said in a low voice: "Miss Su has been wronged."

Xin Yu strode in, and Rong Yu led Su Xinyue to salute.He helped Rong Yu up with a smile, his gaze swept over Su Xinyue's face, his body froze, and his smile stopped.

Rong Yu explained: "Miss Xiaoyue is proficient in melody, the concubine specially left her in the palace to give advice."

Xin Yu stared at her for a moment, then sneered, and said, "So it's Miss Su!" The words "Miss Su" came to her ears, and Rong Yu's heart sank suddenly. Miss Su goes down, so I'm settled." Zhiqi agreed, and stretched out his hand to Su Xinyue, "Miss Su, please follow me." Su Xinyue gave Xin Yu a strange look, and went silently.

Only Xin Yu and Rong Yu were left in the room, it seemed much empty.Rong Yu saw that Xin Yu's face was not looking well, so he went to get the porridge and said softly, "Are you tired today?" Pushing, standing up abruptly, only to hear a bang, and the dishes in the food box were shattered.Rong Yu's face turned pale in shock, he didn't dare to speak, he knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said, "Your Majesty!"

Xin Yu ignored her and sat silently.After a cup of tea, he suddenly stood up again, walked a few steps in the room, went to the window, and pushed it, there was a cool breeze outside the window, and the fragrance of lotus, even Rong Yu, who was kneeling on the ground, felt a sense of ecstasy vibration.But I heard Xin Yu say: "Get up, and serve me another bowl of porridge." Rong Yu knelt for a long time, his legs and feet were numb, he stood up and staggered, supported the wall to stand firm, and slowly went out to get the porridge.

The porridge is very fragrant.Xin Yu's mood was ups and downs before, but now he has an appetite, and he drank a whole bowl of porridge in a short time.

He didn't speak, and Rong Yu didn't dare to open his mouth, he just tried to figure out the shape just now, thinking: The emperor must have met Su Xinyue, and Su Xinyue must have reminded him of something to cause such an attack.He also thinks that Xin Yu has always been gloomy, and that he can't show his emotions easily, and this is the first time that he has had an attack in front of him. Does it mean that he is gradually treating himself as the closest person?Rong Yu's heart was sweet and bitter, cold and hot.

Xin Yumo sat for a while, then suddenly said, "Rong'er, did I scare you just now?"

Rong Yu replied: "Your Majesty has something on his mind, and it would be a great honor for Rong'er to share in the eventuality."

Xin Yu didn't seem to hear her answer, so he was in a daze for a while, and said: "After 20 years, I can't expect to see my old friend again." A look of madness suddenly appeared on his face, and he murmured: "Lin Lang, Lin Lang, Won't you let me go?"

He suddenly discovered that his old friend was still there, and Lin Lang had been sleeping underground for 20 years, with life and death in the middle of nowhere.He suddenly didn't know how he struggled through the past twenty years, and how he was entangled with so many women who looked exactly like Lin Lang, and he couldn't get rid of it.For a moment, there was great pain in his chest, and his heart was as sad as death, and suddenly the knife flashed between his fingers, and he was about to stab his heart——

When the accident happened suddenly, Rong Yu lost his mind when he saw it, he took a step forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty!"

Xin Yu was startled when he heard the words, the blade deflected slightly, and blood gushed out immediately.Rong Yu felt a rush of fishy smell, and stared at him, crying, "Your Majesty!" All of a sudden, his hands and feet went limp, and he was extremely frightened.Xin Yu stretched out his hand to hold her down and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm... all right." Only then did Rong Yu regain his composure.

The knife wound was nothing serious, just bleeding profusely.

Rong Yu tried his best to stabilize his mind, and said: "Tell the imperial doctor." It was only when he spoke that he realized that he was shaking violently.Xin Yu shook his head and said: "Don't be afraid, listen to what I say, let the servants ask the imperial doctor for Jinchuang medicine, just say...you accidentally hurt your hand. Don't let outsiders in."

Rong Yu casually took a silk handkerchief and gave Xin Yu a simple bandage, helped him to lie down on the bed, took the Jinchuang medicine, and explained to Zhishu that he was so and so, and then hurried back. After she had stopped, she felt relieved, and suddenly saw the silk handkerchief on Xin Yu's wound, her face turned pale, it turned out that in her panic, she mistakenly used Lin Lang's silk handkerchief as a silk handkerchief to wrap Xin Yu's wound, so that In Jiaoxiao, only the blood of relatives is recognized, but no words appear.

Xin Yu leaned against the head of the bed, seeing her flustered expression, couldn't help smiling and said, "Come here, Rong'er."

Rong Yu sat close to him.Xin Yu said: "Just now...it seems like he was bewitched. It's all right now, Rong'er, you don't have to worry." There is no place to die.

Xin Yu said: "I knew the girl Xiaoyue you left behind today. At that time, I was also absurd. I went to Shuang Silin with a group of young masters to listen to the music—Shuang Silin, have you heard of it? 20 years ago, it was the most popular brothel in the capital. Miss Xiaoyue was originally called Su Xinyue, and she was the top brand in Shuangsi Lin. It is said that Su Xinyue was born not bad, but later her family fell into ruin. Due to her mother's illness, she sold herself to Shuangsi Lin, because of his outstanding talent and good training, he is quite famous.

But the real claim to fame still depends on the power of Shaoxiang Qin Mi.

It is said that it is a celebrity, and Qin Ni also has this problem. It is widely spread that if you can't find the young minister in the prime minister's mansion, you can go directly to Shuang Silin.

That day, Su Xinyue had just returned from the banquet, she was leaning on the head of the bed slightly drunk, and heard the servants report that there were guests, she knew that at this time, her mother would allow the beginner to be an extraordinary person, so she struggled to get up, but the alcohol was still strong , fragile, only perfunctory.The guest also pitied her for being tired after drinking, so he didn't stay for long, and left after sitting for less than half an hour.

A few days later, there was a new article from Shaoxiang in the capital, in which there was a beautiful sentence, which said, "The face is dizzy and light spring, the eyes are streaming, the fragrance is beautiful, and the charm is natural. I am too lazy to say a word, and I am shocked to love it." I'm sorry that I'm tired, so I don't want to go back." So the people in the capital guessed the identity of the woman in the sentence, and it was widely rumored that the woman looked like a god.

Afterwards, Qin Mi frequently appeared in Shuang Silin, met with Su Xinyue in poetry and wine, and praised Su Xinyue's songs, so Su Xinyue became famous in the capital for a while.

What do you think of this paragraph of gifted scholars and beautiful ladies, Ronger? "

Xin Yu seldom said so much, Rong Yu knew that it was because of his emotional agitation, and if he thought about it afterwards, he would probably regret his slip of the tongue again.Therefore, after careful consideration, he replied: "It is said that the youths from Wuling are fighting for their heads, and there are countless red silks. It is a blessing that Miss Su can enter the Qin residence."

Xin Yu said: "You're right. As the evenings go and the days come and go, businessmen value profits over parting. Su Xinyue's ending is something that many prostitutes dream of." He closed his eyes for a while, and then said: "Qin You and you When Su Xinyue was in love with each other, she was transferred to be an official. Su Xinyue sent her off by boat, and she sent her off for forty or fifty miles. She didn't return to Beijing until Qin Mi repeatedly persuaded her. After returning to Beijing, she refused to see guests. If you force her, she will respond with death, and it will be a good story in the capital for a while."

"What happened later?" Rong Yu couldn't help asking.

Xin Yu opened his eyes and smiled at her, and said: "After Qin You returned to Beijing, his family arranged a marriage for him, Miss Xie. Although Su Xinyue's heart is like a bright moon, there is nothing she can do about it. Fortunately, someone redeemed her for her. , and sent her to Miss Xie's family as a maid, and married into the Qin family together."

After pausing for a while, he suddenly asked: "Why don't you ask who is giving away money like this?"

Rong Yu raised his eyelids, and said, "That must be a first-class character like Jing Ke and Nie Zheng, Rong'er is an ordinary woman, how dare you ask?"

Xin Yu laughed out loud, touched the wound, then frowned fiercely, and said: "This time you guessed wrong, this first-class character of Jing Ke Nie Zheng is a woman, you must have heard of it-- yes Princess Pingliu." After speaking, he laughed again, but Rong Yu heard that there was infinite sorrow, emptiness, and loneliness in that laughter.

Rong Yu's eyes drifted away and fell on the silky hair on Xin Yu's wound, her heart skipped a beat, and she said to herself: I know where that incomparably rich treasure has gone.
