Song Wan arrived at the Ice Lake at the moment of Xu.
The ice lake is silent at night. The trees around the lake are full of ice edges and dark shadows. However, the lake surface reflects the soft and crystal clear luster under the moonlight, like a priceless ice sapphire.
The palace man only asked Song Wan to come to Binghu Lake, but did not tell him where in Binghu Lake he should go, nor what Song Wan should do when he got here.
Song Wan walked around the lake for a while and stopped at a corner covered by trees.
The view here is good, you can see the entire lake, but because it is blocked by trees, it is not easy to expose your body.
Song Wan blew out the lantern in his hand and put it at his feet, rubbed his hands and let out a sigh.
It was already late at night, and the night wind was picking up again. The chill penetrated the body from all directions, penetrating into every hole, and it was biting to the bone.
Song Wan wrapped her cloak tightly around her body and waited patiently for a while. Then a thin voice sounded: "Miss, is this too risky?"
The voice was not far from Song Wan. Song Wan hid behind a tree and first saw a lantern swaying in the night wind.
In the dim light, two petite figures walked onto the lake.
The person holding the lantern in front was a little maid. The person following her wrapped herself tightly in a cloak, not even a hair was exposed.
¡°If you don¡¯t want to die, stop talking nonsense!¡±
The person hiding under the cloak shouted in a low voice. As soon as the voice came out, Song Wan knew it was Chu Ruoqi.
Song Wanchao looked around, but Song Qingfeng was not there, and there was no sign of anyone else.
How did Song Qingfeng get Chu Ruoqi to come here with only one maid in the middle of the night?
Song Wan was confused and saw Chu Ruoqi and the maid walking on the lake with their waists bent and holding lanterns, as if they were looking for something.
Song Wan suppressed his doubts and looked at the lake intently. After a moment, the maid whispered: "Miss, we found it!"
Chu Ruoqi walked to the maid. They were far away from Song Wan now. Song Wan couldn't hear what they were saying, and he didn't know what they found on the lake.
After a while, the maid left with a lantern, leaving Chu Ruoqi alone on the lake.
Song Wan¡¯s heart beat wildly.
Now Chu Ruoqi is the only one left. If she can seize the opportunity to attack Chu Ruoqi from behind, the chance of killing Chu Ruoqi is still very high.
This is not the first time she has killed someone. As long as she stays calm, she should be fine.
Song Wan thought about it and unconsciously took two steps forward. His hands were clenched into fists, and his palms were wet with cold sweat.
My mother¡¯s voice sounded in my ears again.
Ah Wan, move forward, no matter what happens, don¡¯t look back.
The fingernails dug into the palm of his hand, and a slight stinging sensation came. Song Wan gritted his teeth tightly, suppressing his panicked heartbeat and fear. His eyes and brain were empty, leaving only Chu Ruoqi standing on the lake.
Kill her.
Just kill her.
Song Wan kept repeating this sentence in his heart to convince himself. I don¡¯t know how long it took, but a sudden scream came from his ears: "Ah! Someone, come quickly, my lady fell into the water!"
The scream was so loud that it seemed like it was tearing the entire night into pieces.
Song Wan suddenly woke up and found that he had reached the lake. If he took another step forward, he would step onto the lake.
Chu Ruoqi was still standing as before, her head slightly lowered, not knowing what she was looking at, and was not affected by the shouting at all.
The shouting did not stop, and the patrolling Imperial Guards were quickly alerted. Song Wan saw many people rushing towards here carrying lanterns.
Is there Gu Yanting among these people?
How would he react if he saw himself here? Was he furious, or was he ruthlessly throwing her into Dali Temple?
Song Wan was distracted at an inappropriate time. The fastest rushing imperial guard had already arrived at the lake. With a 'boom', Chu Ruoqi, who was originally standing on the lake, disappeared.
Song Wan was stunned for a moment, then his body reacted before his brain and ran towards where Chu Ruoqi was standing just now.
Getting closer, Song Wan saw an ice cave about half a meter in front of where Chu Ruoqi was standing just now.
Chu Ruoqi jumped into the ice cave.
She doesn¡¯t want to live anymore? Could it be that Song Qingfeng had some control over her?
Countless unrealistic guesses flashed through his mind. Just when Song Wan was about to rush to the ice cave, his waist suddenly tightened and his whole body was pulled back by a brute force. He shouted angrily.bsp; Ye Qingling's maid still held a guqin in her hand, which showed that Wei Yuan was not lying.
The queen frowned and said, "I have never heard of your personal contact before. Why do you want to enjoy the night view together tonight?"
Wei Yuan said with a smile: "Qing Ling and I don't have much contact on weekdays, but we both appreciate each other's personality. It's rare to see each other outside the house on weekdays. We just take this opportunity of the Winter Laurel Festival to get along more with each other."
Too.
If Ye Qingling and Wei Yuan had no friendship, why would they want to stand up and testify for Wei Yuan at the banquet yesterday?
Thinking of this, the queen's head started to hurt again. The last time the queen mother called three people into the palace, she was actually the most satisfied with Ye Qingling. After Chu Ruoqi's disagreement last night, the queen also felt that Ye Qingling's character was better than Chu Ruoqi's. , but it is not a good thing that she is too close to Weiyuan now.
The Queen raised her hand to press the throbbing veins in her temples and asked Wei Yuan, "Have you seen everything tonight?"
Wei Yuan said cautiously: "I'm not sure what the cause and effect are. The only thing that's certain is that Miss Chu didn't slip and fall into the water, but jumped into the ice cave by herself."
Chu Ruoqi's personal maid was still there. When she heard this, she said loudly: "No, my lady didn't jump into the ice cave by herself!"
"Who asked you to speak? Come on, slap me!"
The queen glanced at the maid, and immediately someone from the palace stepped forward and slapped the maid in the mouth.
After a while, the maid was beaten until her mouth was full of blood, and she could not speak.
The corners of the Queen's lips lowered, her eyes turned sharp as she looked at Wei Yuan, and she said coldly: "Miss Wei, you can't say such nonsense. Qier is the legitimate daughter of Wei Yanghou Mansion. She has a rich family background, and she is the one who wants to be married." At the age when we are planning to get married, how can we not think about it and choose to commit suicide?"
There was a strong warning in the Queen's words.
She didn¡¯t know Zhao Ying¡¯s plan. When Wei Yuan said that Chu Ruoqi jumped into the ice cave by herself, she thought it was Chu Ruoqi¡¯s fault and deliberately forced her to settle the marriage as soon as possible.
Wei Yuan blinked and said innocently: "The Queen misunderstood. I just said that she jumped into the ice cave by herself, but I didn't say that she was out of ideas and committed suicide."
The queen's face turned even more ugly, and she said coldly: "You said she jumped into the ice cave by herself. If she wasn't looking for a short-term life, could she be crazy?"
The queen¡¯s words were extremely threatening. The palace servant who was kneeling on the ground lowered his head, for fear that if he was not careful, he would become the victim of his master¡¯s anger.
Wei Yuan shrugged and said, "I have to ask Miss Chu what she thinks. I just told the truth about what I saw and heard. Qing Ling was also there at the time. If you don't believe me, you can ask her."
It was cold at night, so Ye Qingling wore a white cloak outside. The brim of the cloak was covered with large pieces of soft and fluffy fur, which suppressed Ye Qingling's coldness and made her look like some kind of furry little animal, gentle and harmless.
Although the queen felt that Ye Qingling and Wei Yuan had colluded long ago, she still looked at Ye Qingling. Ye Qingling's eyes were clear and said: "My maid did not see Miss Chu at the first time. It was only after A Yuan reminded me that I found her alone. Standing on the lake, I was not sure what Miss Chu had experienced before, but she did jump into the ice cave by herself."
Ye Qingling and Wei Yuan's rhetoric was similar, but they left more room for Chu Ruoqi to defend herself.
The queen asked the two maids and the palace servant Siye again, and their stories were completely different.
Chu Ruoqi¡¯s maidservant was beaten until she could not speak, and in the end only Song Wan was left.
The queen had completely calmed down when she looked at Song Wan. The majesty of the mother of the country was spread out quietly, and she asked quietly: "I heard from the imperial guards that when they arrived, Qier had already fallen into the water, and you were right next to the ice cave. , you are not waiting for Prince Wei in the middle of the night, what are you doing there?"
"Back to the Queen, this slave is here to talk to Miss Wei on the order of the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince said that he was competing with Crown Prince Chu during the day and got the limelight. He asked Miss Wei to give in to Miss Chu these days, and not to let Marquis Wei Yang Fu Tai has no face."
Song Wan repeated the excuse that Wei Yuan had thought of for him before. The queen didn't believe it, and frowned and said, "You can say this at any time, why did you choose to go in the middle of the night?"
Song Wan responded calmly: "The prince said that Miss Wei was impulsive, and he was afraid that if he told Miss Wei later, Miss Wei would cause some trouble, so he asked the servant to do it as soon as he thought of it."
The queen said: "Since you have seen Qier fall into the water, why didn't you ask someone to save her, instead of running to the ice cave regardless of your own ability?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
