Longevity: Starting From Getting Down The Mountain And Marrying A Wife

Chapter 291: The Truth Comes Out: Yongzhen Dungeon

Yan Sandao: "Husband, I found the body. It lives in a side room next to the courtyard. There is no external injury on the body...I notified Sister Qingyao immediately."

Yu Qingyao: "It took about half an hour to die, and it was confirmed that she died after taking the 'Duoming Pill'. There was no sign of outsiders breaking into the room. I asked her other maids. She returned home from Fangshi, returned to her room and did not come out again. ..."

Qin Ziyue: "Husband, I have checked and confirmed from Fangshi that she did buy a bottle of 'Duoming Pill' at the 'Qi Medicine Hall', a total of two."

"..."

Everyone spoke to each other and told the details, including Xiao Xing's trajectory throughout the day.

Finally, Yu Qingyao pointed to the things on the table and said, "These are personal belongings found from her residence."

There is a 'death pill' left, as well as spiritual beads, dough, silver taels, jewelry and so on.

Zhong Yan walked to the chair in front of him and sat down, looked around and said, "Look for Dongcao and Qiuxiang."

Li Jingqiu stopped sobbing, the arena was silent for a while.

Seeing Zhong Yan's serious face and the girls' eyes flickering, Liu Ziying looked anxious, looking at the suicide note in Yu Qingyao's hand from time to time, not knowing what happened.

Not long.

Yuan Ziyi went back and forth to fly down the yard, Dongcao and Qiuxiang came together.

Seeing a group of people in the hall, and one lying down, the two of them didn't know why, knowing that something had happened, their hearts tightened, and they hurriedly saluted together.

"I have met my husband personally, all sisters."

One of the two is in charge of the internal affairs of the inner courtyard, and the other is in charge of the school, so they can almost control the work, life and going out of Li Jingqiu's mansion.

Zhong Yan said: "Dongcao, Qiuxiang, please tell me about Jingqiu's situation this month, such as going out, whether you are absent from classes, please be detailed."

The two looked at each other, bowed and said yes, and said a word respectively.

For example, Li Jingqiu once asked for a day off to go out to relax with his personal servant girl, but refused the guards to follow him.

Another example, today Li Jingqiu taught in the Tenth School all day long, and didn't leave until after school.

Yan Sandao added: "Yes husband, we moved the body here, and sister Jingqiu just came back."

Zhong Yan looked at the tearful Li Jingqiu: "Jingqiu, what do you have to say about Xiao Xing's death?"

Li Jingqiu raised his head and looked down, feeling terrified in his heart, he never expected that Xiao Xing would commit suicide suddenly, something must have happened that he didn't know about.

"You know best what you have done, and now I will give you a chance, to be honest."

Li Jingqiu's thoughts were confused, and he was worried, not knowing where to start.

"Why, do you dare to do it or not?"

Zhong Yan raised his hand to take the suicide note from Yu Qingyao's hand and threw it in front of her, shouting, "Speak!"

Li Jingqiu's body trembled violently, his eyes glanced at the content on the paper, his face turned pale immediately, he threw his head on the ground and cried out: "Husband! Master, this concubine knows my mistake, woo woo..."

Zhong Yan felt annoyed, "Tell me about the process of buying and poisoning the medicine!"

When Li Jingqiu met her husband's gaze, Li Jingqiu's heart trembled. Too late for remorse, he bit his lip, confessed everything, and talked intermittently.

Sea Shattering Pill, destroying people's Dantian Qihai, destroying people's Dao Foundation.

Spirit-eating Gu, colorless and odorless, is only useful for monks when soaked in joss sticks and burns. It can dissipate one's vitality and make monks fall to a mortal state, unable to practice anymore.

...

Everyone's faces changed when they heard it, and all the female cultivators couldn't help being afraid. If it happened to them... they dare not think about it.

Zhong Yan was suspicious that it was all her own idea and was not influenced by outsiders.

However, Xiao Xing's death was not in her plan, the master and servant had discussed it, and if something happened, Xiao Xing would come forward to take care of everything, but what happened today was completely unexpected.

After pondering for a while, Zhong Yan speculated that Xiao Xing should have fainted in the alley and was questioned by Wen Yongshan. He had a premonition that something was wrong, and was afraid of going to the Shizhong Court to report to the master and arouse suspicion, so he took the first step to finish it on his own.

Yuan Ziyi's voice transmission: "The problem should be in the black market. Their purpose was discovered by someone with a heart, and they took the opportunity to plan something, but why did they search for a maid?"

Zhong Yan was silent, and everyone in the arena dared not show their atmosphere.

He got up and walked to Li Jingqiu.

Li Jingqiu raised his head, teardrops rolled down, and he couldn't make a sound: "I...know my mistake, and I am willing to accept any punishment."

Looking at each other for a moment, Zhong Yan reached out and pressed her head, never thinking that the first soul search was on his own body.

The vast and complicated memories and complicated thoughts all drilled into Zhong Yan's sea of ​​consciousness, and he felt a slight pain.

Fortunately, his consciousness is strong, so he only felt a little uncomfortable.

a long time.

Zhong Yan withdrew his hand and read all of Li Jingqiu's memories and thoughts. He was silent for a while, feeling extremely complicated, with anger, surprise, confusion, and shock...

He secretly lamented the complexity of the human heart and human nature, and jealousy made her so psychologically twisted.

At the same time, she also lamented her feelings for her. Since the good impression for her can be traced back to the first time they met, she was only ten years old at the time. Seeing the love between men and women, love for the first time, fantasizing about 'uncle' as a husband...

Up to now, in her heart, she can do anything for him, including giving her life, which is probably no less than a bound wife and concubine.

Such deep affection was probably due to jealousy towards Jiang Huan, which prevented him from being bound.

In addition, what Zhong Yan did not expect was that in Li Jingqiu's mind, there was an extremely strong obsession, almost equal to her feelings for herself, occupying a small part of the sea of ​​consciousness: she wanted to step into spiritual practice and accompany her husband until old age.

What puzzled Zhong Yan was that even she herself couldn't figure out why she was only jealous of Jiang Huan and harbored hostility.

And up to this moment, he still resents Jiang Huan in his heart and doesn't know how to repent.

However, she did not lie about the cause and effect of poisoning Jiang Huan. She still had a bottom line in her heart. She didn't want to kill Jiang Huan. They all just want Jiang Huan to become a mortal.

"call……"

Zhong Yan let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Huan'er is poisoned. The future is unpredictable. Dongcao has evil thoughts in his heart, persecutes his family, wreaks havoc on the house, and causes death or injury. According to the clan rules, what is the crime?"

"This..." Dongcao looked at Zhong Yan's face, then at Li Jingqiu, hesitated for a while, then lowered her head and said softly, "Returning to husband, this is a felony and should be punished by being burned."

Needle drop can be heard in the hall.

"master!"

Liu Ziying's complexion changed drastically, and she fell to the ground, knelt and walked to Zhong Yan's feet, crying and begging.

"Uncle! It's my concubine who is not strict in discipline and cannot restrain Qiu'er well. If you want to punish me, punish me!"

"For the sake of Qiu'er's father, please spare her life. I am willing to be an ox and a horse to make amends!"

Zhong Yan glanced at her, then looked at Jiang Huan: "Huan'er, this matter concerns you, what's your opinion?"

Jiang Huan pursed his lips hard, feeling both pity and hatred for Li Jingqiu in his heart, he still couldn't believe that the other party would take action to persecute him, and at first he wanted to use the 'Sea Shattering Pill', if his Dao Foundation was completely destroyed, he would no longer be able to practice Being with your husband for a long time is not enough to relieve hatred with your own hands.

Liu Ziying pulled away her lost daughter, turned to Jiang Huan, and said anxiously: "Mrs. Huan, I beg you to see the sisterhood of sisters who are learning martial arts with Qiu'er, please forgive her once, Qiu'er will definitely turn over a new leaf and start a new life !"

Jiang Huan's face was calm, and he said calmly: "Everything is up to the master."

Zhong Yan said silently: "Li Jingqiu, ask yourself, have I ever treated you badly?"

Li Jingqiu burst into tears: "My husband has treated me with great favor. Being able to accompany my husband is a blessing I have cultivated in several lifetimes. I was deceived physically and mentally. I was confused for a while and made a big mistake. I am willing to accept the punishment..."

Zhong Yan: "Even if I have partiality, you are by no means the one who treats you poorly. You and I were a husband and wife, thinking of your father's deathbed entrustment, and now you are willing to accept the punishment and spare you the death penalty. Ziyue, put Li Jingqiu in prison and guard him specially. , you must not take half a step in your life!"

How is this different from granting death... Liu Ziying shouted: "Uncle!"

Li Jingqiu fell to the ground tragically: "Thank you, Master, for not killing me..."

Zhong Yan looked around the hall.

"In the future, whoever dares to do something similar to ruining the harmony of the family and mutilating the people of the clan will be dealt with according to the clan rules! There will be no mercy!"

"Dongcao, inform the whole house to warn others!

"Also warn the people from the Li family, and Li Shangwu, keep a low profile and do things according to your duty."

"My friendship with Li Henian won't be so damaged by them again, don't bring it up to plead for mercy!"

"It's gone!"
