Chapter 21 (First Update)

Hearing Chu Yu's words, Wei Yun was slightly taken aback.

The girl who was drifting away was full of calculations, and she was only one year older than him, but she already had a completely different momentum.

Perhaps just as he felt that he was eager to grow up to support this Weifu, she also felt that as the elder sister-in-law, she should support him, right?

Wei Yun looked at Chu Yu's back.

Chu Yu didn't find it, but Wei Yun clearly saw that blood was printed from Chu Yu's back.

She was injured, but she still smiled, not even her voice trembling with pain.

Just like in the daytime, when she saw her husband's coffin, her eyes were full of tears, but she still smiled and lifted her up and brought him a glass of toast.

She buried everything in her heart, and she faced him with the most beautiful gesture, and said to him with silent movements, it's okay, everything is fine.

Why not tell him the truth?

Wei Yun clenched his fists, his mind was full of bloodstains printed on her back, and slowly closed his eyes.

The bruised leg bone was aching faintly, but another, more powerful pain emerged from within.

Impotence caused by weakness, helpless.

He had never had a moment when he was so hungry for power.

On the way back with his father and brother, all he thought about was how to find out the truth, how to redress the injustice, how to become the pillar of the family and support the Wei family.

However, when the woman smiled and said the phrase "sister-in-law cover you", he really felt his weakness and powerlessness. He was not even as good as a girl. Although he was his sister-in-law, he was only one year older than him. year old girl.

He wants to live.

Wei Yun suddenly opened his eyes.

He has no clear understanding that he must live, stand up, and become the one who can shield others from the wind and rain. As long as he lives for one day, he will never allow the Wei family to experience today's pain again!

Chu Yu came out of the prison, thinking about the clues given by Wei Yun.

The prince was in charge of the army. Yao Yong was the prince's uncle. He must have been instructed by the prince to come to Baicheng, and then conspired with Wei Zhong to make a plan.

But for some reason, the plan failed, and Yao Yong shied all the responsibility on the Wei family. And the emperor... probably knew it.

Chu Yu got into the carriage and tapped her thighs with her fingers in thought.

Did the emperor know about this, or was he involved?

Did the emperor cause the failure of this incident, and the Wei family took the blame for the emperor; or did the prince cause this to happen, and the emperor covered it up for the prince; or did the emperor have the intention to eradicate the Wei family?

No, not possible.

Chu Yu thought of the third answer and instantly denied it.

Mrs. Xie would stand in the Wei family, and he helped the Wei family when he was aware of the inside story, which was enough to prove that the emperor did not intend to kill the Wei family, and even felt guilty towards the Wei family. If the emperor had planned to eradicate the Wei family, Wei Yun would not be able to return at all.

The emperor will not leave any seedlings of the Wei family.

As long as the emperor did not deliberately plan to eradicate the Wei family, the Wei family would be much safer.

Chu Yu thought about returning to the Marquis of Zhenguo, and Jiang Chun was still waiting for her. Seeing Jiang Chun, Chu Yu smiled and said, "Why are you still not sleeping?"

"You didn't come back, I'll remember."

Jiang Chun stepped forward to help her down: "How is today?"

"Some eyebrows."

Chu Yu looked up at Jiang Chun: "How are the others in the house?"

"Zhang Han and Wang Lan cried a lot and were persuaded to go back. Yao Jue scolded Cao Yan for a while in the room, and now they fell asleep. Xie Jiu stayed in the mourning hall, I don't know if I will go back."

Jiang Chun's words were a little tired. After saying this, he added: "Everyone has come today, and I don't know what to say."

Chu Yu nodded and said with Jiang Chun, "You have worked hard."

"I'm fine," Jiang Chun laughed hard: "It's all trivial things, but you..."

Jiang Chun sighed: "Ayu, if you weren't here, I'd be afraid of myself..."

The words didn't go on, but Chu Yu knew what she was going to say. In her last life, when she was gone, the choices Jiang Chun made gave a glimpse into her heart now. Chu Yu squeezed Jiang Chun's hand and said hoarsely, "I'm here."

"Don't say it," Jiang Chun suppressed the tears that were about to come out: "Go back to sleep first."

"You go first." Chu Yu smiled: "You have been tired all day, so go to sleep in the middle of the night first, I will go to the mourning hall to guard the seven-star lantern, and you will come back in the middle of the night."

Jiang Chun hesitated for a moment, but nodded, and walked with Chu Yu for a while, then went back to sleep.

Jiang Chun is someone who can do things. When Chu Yu went out for a long time, the mourning hall of Wei Mansion was all built, and Wei Feng also found the coffin and placed it safely in the mourning hall.

Chu Yu changed clothes and came to the mourning hall. As soon as she entered, she saw a figure. She was wearing plain clothes, kneeling on the ground, guarding the seven-star lamp enshrined in front of the mourning hall.

The seven-star lantern is an oil lamp with seven candles. According to Da Chu, after a person dies, the seven-star lantern should be used to illuminate Huangquan Road. The seven-star lamp needs family care and cannot be extinguished for the first seven days. Otherwise, the person will not be able to find the Huangquan Road and become an orphan. Ghostly ghost.

The Wei family has only just returned, and the seven-star lantern has only just been lit.

Chu Yu walked into the mourning hall, knelt beside the woman, and said softly, "You are here."

"Um."

Xie Jiu spoke lightly and turned to look at her: "Go to see Xiao Qi?"

"See you."

"How's it going?"

Chu Yu didn't speak, Xie Jiu didn't ask, Xie Jiu knew that Chu Yu didn't trust her, and she didn't force Chu Yu.

She looked at the coffin quietly, her voice was steady: "Today my mother came and told me, let me ask Xiao Qi for a letter of letting go of his wife. Now that the Sacred Heart is undecided, I am staying at the Wei family, she is afraid that I will follow the Wei family. Buried together. In case the 70,000 people are really the Wei family's crime, this crime can be big or small, if one of them is killed, what should I do?"

"Next time I'll see Xiao Qi," Chu Yu said in a flat voice, "I'll beg for you."

"Aren't you afraid?" Xie Jiu turned to look at her. Chu Yu didn't speak.

If it was before, if she was just Xie Jiu, then naturally... she was afraid.

But if you live your whole life again, you will not be so afraid of life and death. When you turn back the road you have traveled, you will have more courage.

What's more, she clearly knew that the Wei family was not beheaded by the whole family back then, and it wasn't there back then. Now that she helps her so much, how could it be?

However, she would not say these words, Xie Jiu lowered her eyes: "I thought I would be very afraid, but seeing him come back today, I suddenly stopped being afraid."

"I don't want to see him." Xie Jiu sighed softly: "I don't want to leave because I'm afraid to see him, I just want to follow him. Aya always asked me if I liked him before he died, and he said he didn't feel that I liked him."Actually..."

Xie Jiu closed her eyes gently, her throat twitched, and after choking for a moment, she said hoarsely: "I'm just afraid, I like him too much. A woman's life is inherently difficult, and the road to a concubine is even more difficult.After thinking about it, talking about whether I like it or not, my path will be too difficult."

"Look," she stood up and walked slowly to the edge of Weiya's coffin. She put her hand on Weiya's coffin and looked down at the coffin, as if the person was sleeping there, and she was looking at the sleeping face.She looked at it with a smile, and tears fell suddenly: "It would be great if I didn't like him."
