Chapter 53 Unmarried

Yun Lin moved his wrist and raised the tip of the sword, and the proud look on Luo Sanniang's face instantly solidified.

"Okay, plus this time, you killed two people, so you deserve the death penalty."

Hearing this, Luo Sanniang turned pale. Why did the man's words have no effect?

Didn't he say that as long as she confessed him, she would be fine?

Luo Sanniang suddenly felt that she had been deceived, and anger surged in her heart, but the pain from her neck made her calm down.

No, she has to save herself.

"I admit, I did something wrong last time, but this time I didn't."

Luo Sanniang no longer had any scruples and told the truth at once: "I have no idea how Cui Hengyue was injured this time.

"I don't know why my scissors got into Li Bier's hands. Maybe she stole them, maybe someone else stole them.

"I have never been to Li Bier's room, nor have I stabbed Li Bier. Her injuries have nothing to do with me.

"Captain Yun, Captain Yun, you must believe me. I have not even touched Cui Hengyue today. The wounds on her body were not caused by me."

Yun Chen asked: "You were away for a quarter of an hour, what on earth were you doing?"

He would not believe her to change clothes, this excuse was too lame.

This time, Luo Sanniang didn't hesitate at all and said directly: "I went to see Xie Yu."

"impossible."

Yun Chen was shocked and didn't want to believe it: "The South Cave is heavily guarded, and you can't sneak in quietly.

"Furthermore, I have not received any news that the guards in the South Catacombs were attacked."

If Luo Sanniang and the guards guarding the South Cave made a move, the surrounding guards would definitely hear it, and there would be no chance that there would be no movement.

Seeing Yun Chen's expression, Luo Sanniang couldn't help showing a proud look: "I entered through the roof."

Her Qinggong skills were not inferior to Yun Lin's. If it hadn't been for the dark sky just now and Yun Lin frightened her for a moment, she wouldn't have fallen into their hands.

Yun Chen and Yun Lin looked at each other and continued to interrogate: "When did you and Xie Yu meet?"

Hearing this question, Luo Sanniang fell into memories: "When? It's a bit early. I met Xie Langjun long before I entered the South Hall..."

Half an hour later, Yun Chen, Yun Lin and others came out of the room with sullen faces.

"Remember, what happened today must not be leaked to anyone."

After hearing Yun Chen's order, everyone looked stern and said in unison: "Yes, we will keep our mouth shut."

"Watch carefully, don't let the prisoner escape."

Yun Chen gave instructions and left with Yun Lin.

As he stepped onto the stairs leading to Wenshu Pavilion, Yunlin suddenly asked: "Should we report to the general now?"

Yun Chen looked back at the moonlight: "It's too late today. It's better to go see the general early tomorrow morning."

--------

The moon gradually disappeared, the fish belly appeared on the horizon, and everything in the Ksitigarbha Pavilion was still quiet.

In the darkness, Song Zhuoxing suddenly opened his eyes and moved his hands.

Hearing the sound, Runzhu also opened his eyes and shouted softly: "Sanlang, are you awake?"

"Yeah." Song Zhuoxing responded softly.

Runzhu moved his hands tied by the rope, then gently moved a few steps to the side, leaning on Song Zhuoxing: "Sanlang, you went to Wenshu Pavilion yesterday, did you find anything?"

Song Zhuoxing shook his head.

Suddenly it occurred to him that there were no candles in the room and Runzhu couldn't see it. He lowered his voice and said, "I didn't find it. The thing may be in Guanyin Pavilion. I'll go check it out next time."

"Are you going today?"

"Let's talk about it after we get out of here."

"Are you really planning to stay here and wait for them to let us out?"

"right."

Runzhu was a little speechless: "..."

He was obviously protecting Miss Cui, but he was falsely accused of assassinating Miss Cui. After that, he was imprisoned in this small and dark room, beaten with a whip, interrogated, and he didn't know how long he would be locked up...

.

The master has been pampered since he was a child. When did he receive such abuse?

But having fallen into such a predicament, the master still looked unmoved, which was really frustrating.

Alas, he was so impatient, why did he follow such a calm master?

...

When the first ray of dawn shone into Shenyin Palace, Shui Fu and Shui Rong were already waiting at the door of the dormitory with washing things.

There were slight footsteps, and both of them looked down the corridor, only to see Mu Shui walking over with a tray covered with a piece of red silk.

Shui Fu was surprised, but she didn't forget to lower her voice: "Madam, didn't you stay on duty last night?"

"No." Mu Shui replied lightly and walked into the hall quietly.

After a while, she came out again. At this time, her hands were empty and she didn't take anything.

Seeing Mu Shui raise his hands, Shui Rong handed over the basin in his hand.

Mu Shui carried the basin into the bedroom again, and after a while, she came out again to get what Shui Fu was holding.

After taking the things, Mu Shui whispered: "Everyone, go down."

"yes."

The two retreated quietly.

But after walking a few steps, Shui Fu looked back. She didn't see Mu Shui, so she turned back and asked Shui Rong, "Don't you think something is wrong with my lady today?"

"What's wrong?" Shui Rong's tone was very calm.

"Although Madam usually doesn't let us interfere with King Chu's affairs, she won't ask us to step down so early. Anyway, I think something is wrong with Madam today."

Shuifu tilted her head and thought for a while: "It seems... the lady's eyes are a little red."

At this point, Shui Fu exclaimed softly: "Ah, the lady is not crying, is she? Is it the King of Chu..."

"Maybe the lady just didn't sleep well." Shui Rong promptly interrupted her inappropriate speculation.

Well...it's possible.

Shui Fu, who was dubious, saw Shui Rong walking straight away, and quickly quickened her pace to chase after her: "Shui Rong, wait for me."

Behind them, Mu Shui stood on the corridor, watching them quietly until their backs disappeared from sight. After waiting for a while, Mu Shui entered the bedroom.

After entering the dormitory, Mu Shui stood outside the curtain door of the inner room, not looking in like she did last night, although she was still tormented inside.

After a while, a deep voice came from the inner room: "Come in."

Mu Shui subconsciously glanced at the clock outside, which was a quarter of an hour later than usual.

She lowered her head and walked quietly into the inner room carrying the washing things. She looked up first and saw King Chu sitting in front of the window, so she walked towards the window.

After waiting silently for King Chu to wash up, Mu Shui walked out.

The master ordered her to wait outside last time.

"Change the water in the basin and prepare a new veil."

After hearing what King Chu said, Mu Shui paused and felt quite uncomfortable, but he still respectfully agreed and went to prepare things.

When Mu Shui came in again, he not only prepared the things that King Chu had given him, but also a complete set of toiletries and robes.

She placed the tray in her hand on the table and lifted the red silk cloth on it: "Master, I was in a hurry today and didn't have time to prepare my wife's clothes.

"This is my new dress. I haven't worn it yet. If I don't mind it, I'll make do with it for a day.

"Later, I will ask the embroiderer to measure the lady's measurements, and first make a set of dresses for the lady to change into tomorrow."

King Chu glanced at the material of the clothes on the tray, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes: "I am always at ease when you do things. She is still asleep, so please be gentle.

"By the way, she is injured, please take care of it."

Hearing such a gentle voice again, Mu Shui almost cried with joy, but she controlled her emotions and walked towards the bed with the basin in hand.

There was the sound of a wheelchair turning behind him. Mu Shui looked back and saw that King Chu had fled outside.

Mu Shui stared blankly at the swaying curtain, not knowing what expression to make.
