"From the moment Xiao Yunyi snatched her away, we were destined to lose the opportunity."
What should not have happened had happened. After struggling for a while, they finally succumbed to the ruthlessness of fate. An indescribable emotion surged in her chest, making the corners of Ning Shu's eyes turn red uncontrollably.
Layers of guilt crushed Hui Mo's shoulders. He squatted on the ground and hugged his head. "When I came to catch him, he had already foreseen what was waiting for him. Why didn't he run away at that time? Why didn't he run away? Tell me, if I hadn't been in a hurry to catch him, and had asked him more questions and listened to him a little more, would the result have been different? He wouldn't have had to die … It's all my fault for being too rash! Why didn't I grow a brain? Why didn't I grow a brain? "
Ning Shu took a deep breath and walked to Hui Mo's side. She patted his head gently. "Hui Mo, don't blame yourself. It's not any of our fault, and it's not your fault either. It's because he wanted to die. "
Hui Mo lowered his head and looked at the silent ground under his feet. Drops of water flowed down his chin and soaked them silently. He wiped his face hard and said, "Lady Ning, you said that heaven and earth are heartless and treat all things as dogs. Then shouldn't it treat all things equally and not be particularly good to anyone and not particularly bad to anyone? But why does it always bully honest people? "
Ning Shu opened her mouth but did not say anything. She quietly looked up at the towering sky above her head. It was cloudy today and there was not even a star. The strong dark blue piled up layer by layer, turning into a terrifying darkness. It was so dark that she could not see her fingers in front of her, as if there was no trace of light in the world.
She stubbornly raised her head and looked directly at the darkness, as if she was confronting it silently.
"Heaven is unfair. Then we will abandon it. Anyway, I, Ning Shu, have never believed in it." After not blinking for a long time, the water in her eyes was dried by the wind. It made her eyes hurt, but it also made her eyes burst with an unyielding light, like a burning sun. She said, "The more people want to take away the justice in this world, the more I want to take it back with my own hands. The more people want to bury the truth, the more I want it to be exposed in broad daylight. Since God has closed his eyes, then we will climb to the sky and dig two holes, forcing him to open his eyes and look at the world. As long as we are still alive. "
The three hands were tightly clasped together.
"As long as we are still alive."
This night was destined to be a sleepless one.
Imperial Uncle's residence.
Seeing that Cao Huayu had returned, Cao Zhengwei couldn't wait to greet him and whispered, "Have you dealt with them?"
Cao Huayu leisurely walked into the room and picked up a unique Ru kiln Cerulean teapot from the table. He poured himself a cup of tea and slowly drank it before saying, "Father, do you still not trust your son? As a son, he naturally wouldn't dare to disappoint his father. Before the Fourth Prince arrived at the barracks, your son took action and killed him. Then, I pretended to hang myself and wrote a confession letter like Zhao Mingzhen. When the Fourth Prince rushed in and saw the confession letter, he couldn't say a single word. He suffered a great loss and left with an ashen face. "
"Then, did you go into the palace and report this matter to your aunt?"
"Of course. Aunt was very angry at first. That girl from the Ning family and Xiahou Qing dared to scheme against her. She had to find a chance to get rid of them completely. Then, my aunt greatly praised Erchen for his prompt decision to extinguish the ashes that had reignited, completely cutting off any chance of it reigniting. He resolved our Cao family's predicament and also resolved her predicament. However, my aunt also expressed her worries. It's true that Yuan Tianwang's mouth was destroyed, but this case has a wide range of implications. Everyone in the capital is talking about it. If we don't give it a proper conclusion, it'll be difficult to stop the world from talking. "
Cao Huayu smiled and looked as if he was devising a strategy. "It's very easy. Tomorrow at noon, in front of the Meridian Gate, the Ministry of Justice, the Supreme Court, and the Inspectorate will sit together and announce Yuan Tianwang's crimes to the world. After his death, we'll cut off the tongues of Liu Laosan and his family and order them to sign the confession letter on the spot. When the time comes, we'll confirm Yuan Tianwang's crimes.
Cao Zhengwei nodded. After a while, he turned around and said, "But that Ning girl is not a soft persimmon. She's full of thorns. What if she jumps out and destroys us?"
"Tomorrow, I'll place hundreds of pairs of eyes near the Meridian Gate. Whoever dares to go against our Cao family, don't blame me for being ruthless." Cao Huayu mysteriously curled his lips. His eyes were filled with a sinister look that didn't match his appearance. "As for that Ning Shu, father, don't worry. Erchen promises that she won't dare to come out and make trouble tomorrow. Instead, she'll obediently cooperate with us and put on this show until the end. Because she has no other choice. "
