Chapter 038: The Heart of the Matter (1 / 2)

Mu Zi Yan did not expect Xiao Cui to be so fiery, her eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light, and she stepped forward, her small body protecting Qi’s heel, blocking Xiao Cui’s spattered blood from her body.

After all, Qi saw red this morning, now indeed can not be stained with blood, in this era, double body is naturally taboo.

Qi’s eyes were cold and heavy as she nervously hugged Mu Zi Yan, “Yan’er, are you alright”

“Mother, are you alright” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at Qi and turned to look at Xiao Cui who had fallen in a pool of blood.

The timid maid on the side had a miserable face and lowered her head to kneel on the ground limply.

Biyun and Yunxiang since that day saw the death of Chunxi, for this matter will not be as scared as before, not to mention that this Xiao Cui also deserved to die.

Yun Xiang’s sharp eyes took the embroidered handkerchief and wiped the blood stains that stained the hem of Mu Zi Yan’s skirt.

Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at Zhang, she frowned and her face was gloomy, I think she did not expect things to develop to such a point, this Xiao Cui not only told the truth, but also made her will clear with her death.

Cui was heartbroken and pounced forward, not caring that Xiao Cui’s hot blood was staining her body, only focusing on the hairpin, trembling and pulling it out from Xiao Cui’s neck.

Blood rushed out, spraying Cui straight in the face.

Sister Lin hurriedly helped Cui up, “Your Ladyship, let the old slaves do the work, how can you?”

Cui stared at that Xiao Cui’s corpse, hated to death by a thousand cuts, where still care about their own face full of blood, drew out a handkerchief and carefully wrapped the hairpin, but, unfortunately, the hairpin soaked in blood, the jewel is also broken in half, although not broken, but also tarnished, can not be repaired.

Cui’s heartache like a knife twisting, tightly biting her lips, holding tightly hairpin, staring at that Xiao Cui, eyes within the cold light shot, silent for a moment, suddenly raised his eyes, will fall on the Zhang’s body behind him, seems to be to vent this anger on the Zhang’s body.

Zhang saw Cui staring angrily at herself, she is now also upset, where still care about Cui, only thinking that this night’s matter can be covered up.

Unexpectedly, one wave started before the other, before she had time to speak, she saw Zhong Hui leading people into the hall.

Zhong Hui face with a few points of anxiety, to enter the hall to see the dead body of Xiao Cui, eyes round, froze for a moment, and then fell his eyes on Qi’s body.

Qi gave Cui Maiden a wink, although this Xiao Cui died in front of her, but it is not dead in her yard, not to mention that Xiao Cui is not her yard head of the people, she did not want to overstep her role, and in vain to fall into the mouth of the truth.

Sister Cui hurriedly helped Qi to move not far away to sit down, and then stood aside without moving.

Qi’s behavior made Zhang even more embarrassed, her face was green and white, she wanted to open her mouth to explain, then she saw that Zhong Hui had already walked over.

“Daughter-in-law has met mother.” Zhong Hui still had a layer of thin sweat on the corner of her forehead, but she also bowed respectfully, and did not have half a trace of panic.

Cui saw Zhong Hui, the corner of her mouth hooked up a cold smile, staring at Zhang’s more and more uncomfortable, this day, she will make Zhang look good, holding tight hairpin hand can not stop trembling, her baby ah.

Qi’s expression was faint as she looked at Zhong Hui and said in a low voice, “Hui’er has something to do.”
