Lu Qian could not help but advise, "Niangniang, your important matter is related to the fate of the Wulin world in the future. The Lord Baylor Ling's little child is not sensible, don't talk nonsense for him and break the law. Your many years of painstaking effort will inevitably fall short of success; it will be a great pity. "
Shen Shiyun smiled and said, "Lu Qian, you underestimate my little child too much. Of course the Xuan Shuang will not talk nonsense, but Bengong has never done anything that I am not certain of. Since I dared to bring him along, I must have a foolproof plan. When the time comes, I will have a way to make him talk nonsense." Lu Qian said, "In that case, Wei Chen is relieved. Niangniang, please take care. Wei Chen … respectfully sends Niangniang off. "
Xuan Shuang was angry in his heart, "Lu Qian, evil thief, you are a fence-sitter, a big treacherous minister! You promised to follow me, but in the blink of an eye you are fawning on my Empress and ruining my business. You still dare to shake your head in front of me! Humph, humph, you think my future achievements will be inferior to hers? I am the genuine Emperor throughout the ages. She is nothing but the previous Emperor's favorite concubine. You are fawning on the wrong heel, just wait for your failure. When I ascend the throne, if at that time my Empress still keeps you, the first one I will deal with is you. Just wait and see. " He was so angry that he pointed his middle finger at Lu Qian. But he still felt it was not enough, so he chopped his fingers in the air and made a cross mark. Only then did he chase after Shen Shiyun.
The two of them arrived at the main hall. Shen Shiyun calmly sat on the main seat. She waved her hand and said, "Summon Shaoshuai Yun to see me." Xuan Shuang sat below her. His heart was thumping wildly, as if it was about to jump out of his chest. Right now he was under great pressure. He thought that he was able to profit from a disaster and obtain this rare opportunity to stay by his Empress' side and supervise her, to listen to their conversation with his own ears. If he was still unable to turn the situation around, not only he was incompetent, he would simply become one of her accomplices. Not to mention other people, even he himself would not be able to forgive himself.
An Yesun followed several eunuchs into the room. He immediately shook off the support from both sides and coldly said, "Noble Consort Yun, what do you want? If you have something to say, then say it all at once. Don't hemp and haw. You're disturbing me again and again. I'm not here for you to pass the time. "Shen Shiyun sighed and said," Young Marshal Yun, you lack etiquette in front of me! As a subordinate, you shouldn't speak to your master in such a tone, right? " An Yesun sneered, "Heh, hmph, your words sound better than singing. Do you think I want to be your subordinate?"
Shen Shiyun said, "When did I ever want to make fun of you? Compared to the other generals under my command, I already have a special respect for you. I have the intention to confide in you, and I hope you can be patient and listen to me. " Xuan Shuang said in his heart, "Confiding in me … You can say this kind of thing without any change in expression; I really admire you."
An Yesun said, "I don't want to hear a single word of your nonsense. If there's nothing else, I'm going back to practice martial art first. "Shen Shiyun stood up and said," Hold on, Young Marshal Yun. You entrusted me with this task as an exchange condition, all these years I have not forgotten even for a single day. After investigating from many sides, I finally found Miss Chu's whereabouts. I originally wanted to inform you immediately, but since you don't want to listen, I'll let my painstaking effort go to waste. Very well, you can go back first, I won't disturb you. "Xuan Shuang's heart was beating like a drum. He thought," Here it comes, here it comes, here it comes! "
Sure enough, An Yesun's expression was very happy; he was so happy that he did not know where to put his hands and feet. He said, "You … you … ay, why didn't you say so earlier? Why are you making fun of me like this? "Shen Shiyun smiled and said," Admittedly, I wanted to say it earlier, but you didn't even allow me to say a few polite words. You already said you don't want to listen to that nonsense, so what else do I have to say? I'm afraid that no matter what I say, in your ears, it will become nonsense. "
An Yesun said, "If what I say is unpleasant to your ears, why do you care so much? You know that I've always been … always been … "Shen Shiyun smiled and said," You want to say that you've always been impatient, right? In the future, you'd better avoid it as much as possible. " An Yesun hastily said, "Yes, yes, I'll listen to whatever you say. Quickly tell me about Menglin. She … how is she now? Is she living well? Is she happy? Quickly tell me! "
Shen Shiyun sighed and deliberately put on an awkward expression. She said, "Young Marshal Yun, I'm very sorry. This … do you really want to hear it? Perhaps it won't be good news for you. "An Yesun anxiously said," Don't keep me in suspense. The worst case scenario is that I can predict. Is it because she's not happy? The other party doesn't treat her well? "Shen Shiyun shook her head and said," It's worse than that. "An Yesun anxiously said," What actually happened to Menglin? Where is she? Tell me! She … "Shen Shiyun said," She's dead. "
The joy on An Yesun's face instantly turned cold, as if a basin of cold water had been poured over his head. He was completely stunned. He stiffly retreated a few steps, but he still couldn't accept it. He angrily said, "Impossible, you're talking nonsense! This is fake, I don't believe it! "
Shen Shiyun leisurely said, "She's really dead. Even her body was fished out of the river. Her clothes were mottled and stained with blood. Although her body was swollen and deformed from being soaked in water, we asked a few coroner to examine her body. It's definitely Miss Chu. I didn't tell you before because I didn't want you to be too sad. Her face was full of unwillingness, and she was also deeply pained by her inability to change the current situation. Even after she died, her eyes were still wide open, mournfully looking up at the sky. I personally closed her eyes for her. "As she said this, she glanced at the Xuan Shuang proudly.
The Xuan Shuang gritted his teeth and glared at her. Hearing her say that the news of Chu Menglin's death was true, he couldn't explain it, so he could only clench his fists tightly.
An Yesun felt as if his bones had been broken. He staggered and fell backwards until he was blocked by the square table. Only then did he raise his head and say intermittently, "Tell me, you're lying to me. I'll be grateful to you … hmm?" Shen Shiyun said in a low voice, "Everything I said is true. It's a matter of life and death, and Miss Chu is the most beloved in your heart. I wouldn't dare to joke about this matter. Miss Chu is already dead. She'll never come back. Even she wouldn't want to see you unable to recover because of her, right? "
An Yesun angrily said, "Don't say anymore, I don't want to hear it! As long as Menglin is well, what does my mood matter? Why would she care? " Shen Shiyun helplessly shook her head. She looked at the Xuan Shuang, whose face was full of bitterness and deep hatred. She smiled and said, "Xuan Shuang, aren't you very close to Young Marshal Yun? You should also persuade him a little. "
The Xuan Shuang's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. As soon as he heard this, he immediately jumped up from his chair and rushed to An Yesun's side. He pulled on his sleeve and said, "Young Marshal Yun, Miss Chu unfortunately passed away. We're all very sad. But the dead can't come back to life. You must restrain your grief and accept it …"
An Yesun flicked his sleeve and flung his hand away. He shouted, "Get lost!" He slowly walked in front of Shen Shiyun and said coldly, "Tell me, how did Menglin die? If I find out who killed her, even if I have to flee to the ends of the earth, I'll still kill him to pay with his life! I … I'll make him regret ever being born into this world! "
Shen Shiyun said, "Bengong understands your determination. But there are some things that can't be accomplished with just a burst of impulse. For example, the person who killed her, you can't deal with him. "An Yesun angrily said," In the entire Wulin world, there are very few people who can't be dealt with by my Broken Fiend Star! "Shen Shiyun said," That's right. But what if he is among those few people? Besides, a real first-class martial art master won't bully a girl whose martial art skill is far inferior to his own. He has some relationship with Menglin, and he's also someone very close to you … eliminating all these factors, you should get the answer, right? "
An Yesun's eyes were dark and gloomy. He said, "What do you mean … you … he knows Menglin …" His thoughts were in a mess, he couldn't stand steadily. After a long time, he suddenly had a flash of light in his mind, but he was also hoping that he didn't get this result. He muttered to himself, "Could it be … could it be … how could it be him … even a vicious tiger won't eat its own cubs. How could he have the heart to kill Menglin so ruthlessly …"
Shen Shiyun's clear and melodious voice said, "The murderer is indeed the Devil Cult's Hierarch, but it's not your Shifu!" An Yesun was even more shocked. He pretended to be angry and said, "Impossible, you can't fool me about this matter. Although Jiang Liechen's character is vicious, his love for Menglin is also sincere. How could he kill her? At that time, when he helped Menglin escape from the marriage, it was the two of us together … "
Shen Shiyun said, "Jiang Liechen is someone who haggles over the smallest trifle. If there's enmity, he will seek revenge. You know this. If he can't get something, he'd rather destroy it with his own hands than let other people touch it. On this point, Bengong understands him better than you. You said that you helped Menglin escape from the marriage, but may I ask, whose marriage did you escape from? The bridegroom is himself, who made him lose such a big face. Don't tell me he won't bear a grudge? Furthermore, do you still remember what Menglin took with him when he left your honorable Cult's headquarters? "
An Yesun's expression was stupefied. He subconsciously replied, "The Residual Shadow Sword …?" Shen Shiyun said, "That's right. Jiang Liechen has the ambition of a wolf, and the Residual Shadow Sword is the Wulin world's most valuable treasure. Don't tell me he would let Menglin take away the treasured sword? For the sake of a divine weapon powerful enough to command the world, and for the sake of a woman who betrayed him. Between the two, what do you think he would choose? "
An Yesun's eyes were bloodshot. His entire body was enveloped in a layer of murderous aura. Gnashing his teeth, he said, "What you said is true … Is it true that for the sake of the Residual Shadow Sword, Jiang Liechen … killed Menglin?" Shen Shiyun said, "That's not what Bengong said. It's what everyone in Jianghu is saying. It's also the truth that you and I have slowly analyzed. The truth is right in front of your eyes. But you're not Jiang Liechen's opponent. Even if you go to him, you'll only be throwing your life away in vain. Therefore, you can only grit your teeth and swallow your blood. It's a pity that no one can avenge Menglin. "
Xuan Shuang glowered at Shen Shiyun. Seeing her calm expression as she said those words to drive a wedge between them, he only felt that he had never experienced this kind of hatred before. The troublesome thing was that the news of Chu Menglin's death was irrefutable. No matter how they comforted him, they couldn't make him feel better.
An Yesun angrily said, "Who said so? Who said I can't kill him …! " With a flick of his sleeve, he swept the cups on the table to the floor. The cups flew everywhere in the hall, and with a flick of his hand, he tore the vase, the painting, the scroll, and the others into pieces. He raised his hand and chopped the square table into several pieces. Xuan Shuang couldn't bear it. He wanted to step forward and mediate, but Shen Shiyun grabbed his wrist and said, "Are you crazy? He doesn't recognize his own family right now. Don't provoke him. "Xuan Shuang angrily said," So what? Don't tell me it's still my fault? "
An Yesun swung his fist and punched the pillar. His hand was dripping with blood. With a hoarse voice he said, "He killed Menglin. I … I'll … I'll never be able to coexist with him …! If I don't kill him, I … I swear I'm not human! "There was a hint of sobbing in his voice. Then he turned around and ran out the door.
Shen Shiyun stood where she was. She smiled and said, "The effect is very good right now. But if we want to help him make up his mind, Bengong still has to help him. Let's go. You'll have a good show to watch. "Xuan Shuang angrily said," A good show? You dare to say this is … "Shen Shiyun didn't reply. She quickly ran after An Yesun. Xuan Shuang paused for a moment, then followed closely behind.
The two of them followed An Yesun all the way to the rear courtyard. They saw his body leaning over the mouth of the well. Most of his head was hanging inside. After a long time, he suddenly grabbed a bucket of water from the side of the well. With both hands tightly gripping the edge of the bucket, he poured the water over his head. Almost all the water in the bucket splashed onto his body. In an instant, his whole body was soaked. His wet hair stuck to his face. Droplets of water continued to drip down. He bit his lip. The whites of his eyes turned blood red. He angrily threw the bucket back into the well.
