Chapter 180 The Evil Fall of Gaoling Flower 21
Zhou Qianbai sensed the suppressed emotions. She felt a little timid and began to regret her own impatience.
She knew clearly that Zhou Yinghuai was an absolute lunatic, so she should have considered her plans more carefully.
But she was too scared, worried that if she was a step slower, she would lose Zhou Yinghuai completely.
Now that the truth has been revealed, we can only find a scapegoat...
"It was my personal maid Zhiyu who told me."
Zhiyu, who was originally extremely anxious, suddenly widened her eyes and looked at the young lady whom she had served wholeheartedly for more than ten years crying and complaining.
"She told me that you and the eldest lady had an abnormal relationship. Then my mother came to visit me and I accidentally let it slip. Then she...Ah!!"
Before Zhou Qian could finish his words, a dagger pierced through the back of his hand as it was supporting the ground.
Her screams of fear and pain almost pierced one's eardrums, but Zhou Yinghuai, who was half-squatting in front of her, remained indifferent from beginning to end.
"This time it was your hands, next time it will be your eyes."
The cold warning made Zhou Qianbai, who was sweating profusely from the pain, cry and gasp. With tearful eyes, she looked at the man in front of her with blood on his eyebrows and eyes, and a lot of resentment surged in her heart.
"Who do you think I am for?!"
Zhou Qianbai suddenly broke down and cried to Zhou Yinghuai: "Shen Qingyu is a demon! She is a demon, you know?! She died a long time ago..."
Before she could finish her words, Zhou Yinghuai suddenly grabbed her neck and lifted her up.
"I don't want to hear your nonsense."
The moment the last syllable fell, Zhou Qianbai was thrown out by a huge force. When she hit the ground, several bones were broken and pierced her lungs. The pain almost made her faint.
Blood oozed from the corner of her mouth. In a burst of piercing pain, she seemed to have returned to the time in her previous life when she was abused by her in-laws.
They have no dignity and are treated like pigs and dogs.
She was panting, her breath was full of the smell of blood. When she vaguely saw Zhou Yinghuai walking towards her with a knife in his hand, she suddenly started crying and laughing.
"Don't you want to know where I got the news? Then I'll tell you! Zhou Yinghuai, I know everything that will happen in the future!"
The absurd words made Zhou Yinghuai more and more impatient, until Zhou Qianbai said in a hoarse voice: "I know that you want to seize the imperial power for Shen Qingyu, kill Yong Che, and support the youngest grandson of the King of Zhenbei to take the throne as a puppet emperor."
These words made Zhou Yinghuai's pupils shrink slightly, and he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
If there was a risk that his affair with Qing Wan would leak out, it would be understandable, as it was nothing more than a traitor in the inner courtyard.
But what Zhou Qianbai just said were things he had just thought about when he was confronting Yong Che in the morning. He had not had time to tell anyone except himself.
Seeing Zhou Yinghuai's reaction, Zhou Qianbai laughed. The blood and air in her chest suddenly choked her breathing. She was still grinning while coughing hoarsely.
"You know, you know, whether what I said is true or false..."
Choking on a mouthful of blood, she laughed like a madman: "Also, I, I tell you, you can never be with her! Shen Qingyu, she will be dead in a year!"
The last four words suddenly hit Zhou Yinghuai's ears, making his mind go blank for a moment, and the blood color on his face faded instantly.
"What did you say?"
The hoarse voice seemed to be filled with a bloody smell, and it was even trembling slightly.
Zhou Qianbai felt even happier when she saw this. What she couldn't get, these people couldn't get either! !
So she held on with all her might, and said word by word with extreme viciousness: "She will be cut into pieces by the sword, wailing and crying until she dies in agony. Her body will also be skinned and bones removed. She will not be able to rest in peace even after death!!"
"lie!"
Zhou Yinghuai refuted with heavy breathing, the corners of his eyes were bloodshot, veins on his forehead were throbbing, and when he pinched Zhou Qianbai's neck and lifted him up, his face was no longer cold, but twisted like a devil.
But Zhou Qianbai felt it. His fingertips were cold as ice and trembling slightly. His hysterical fear was being concealed in vain.
So this is what Zhou Yinghuai looked like when he was afraid.
Zhou Qianbai was breathing with difficulty, his throat was blocked by a blood clot, and his vague and weak voice was almost a whisper, but Zhou Yinghuai still heard it clearly.
She was saying: "I can't change it. Nothing can be changed. This is fate..."
Although there was no shouting at all, it was more chilling than the most vicious curse.
The fear in Zhou Yinghuai's chest swelled to the point that it seemed to crush his heart. He trembled slightly, his eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't help but growl, "You're lying! You're lying!"
She simply bribed a spy to find out what happened, and then figured it out on her own.
Knowing the future? Ha! How is that possible?!
Yes, absolutely impossible!!
Zhou Yinghuai frantically used various reasons to convince himself, threw the person next to Sanchun, and ordered with great anger: "Hold her life, and pry open her mouth by any means. Tomorrow I want to know who the traitor in the inner courtyard is. Understand?!"
After Sanchun knelt on one knee and responded, she caught a glimpse of Zhou Yinghuai turning around and leaving in a hurry, even stumbling and falling to the ground when he reached the door.
The brocade handkerchief that he had been holding carefully in his left hand accidentally got stained with blood on the ground, and a corner of it was instantly stained.
Like some kind of ominous sign.
-
As night fell, Qing Wan had not yet been released from the small dark room.
Ever since she knocked Wang Peilan unconscious during the day, the rest of the people couldn't make up their minds, so they had to lock her up here first and then make plans.
They didn't dare to be too harsh on him, so even though it was a small dark room, it had all the necessary things.
Qing Wan was also happy and at ease. She sat cross-legged on the bed, spread out her bag and counted the number of her little golden beans.
She remembered the few young palace maids who had quietly helped her today, and she also noticed that their exposed arms all had whip marks, and some even had cracks and pus.
These are children sent here from poor families, and they definitely don’t have money to buy medicine.
So she wanted to find an opportunity to give these things away naturally. She didn't need them anyway, and she kept them just to maintain her image.
While thinking about this, she suddenly became aware of some movement.
A trace of cold vigilance surged in his eyes. When he turned to look at the open window, he saw Zhou Yinghuai climbing in by stepping on the windowsill.
Qing Wan wasn't really surprised, but she still looked surprised, and her eyes brightened.
"Ying Huai!"
She looked so happy that she rushed over and hugged Zhou Yinghuai without even putting on her shoes.
The latter's face was a little pale, and his eyes were extremely empty and dark, but the moment Qing hugged him, the corners of his mouth were still slightly raised, gentle and compassionate.
"Little girl..."
Zhou Yinghuai held her tightly in his arms, buried his face in the side of her neck, and sniffed her scent with restraint and obsession.
It's like a dying person absorbing the oxygen of life.
