Chapter 41 - Confession (II)

”Oh …” So that was the case. Then who discovered that Tong Dazhu had been killed? And who sent so many people to kill me? ” Zhuo Qingyan asked again.

”Yes, yes, it's me …” ”Howl …” Zhu Xin said: ”At that time, I was waiting for him in the courtyard in front of us, but he went … After being away for such a long time... None of them moved... I'll send someone to see... Results... Instead, it turned out that... He was killed … ” Zhu Xin cried hard.

”But you didn't expect that I would still be able to return to the Plum Garden alive. Furthermore, you didn't expect that second brother would return home so quickly …” Zhuo Qingyan snorted once again.

”Fourth Miss …” Please spare me … This servant truly knows her wrongs … Besides, Fourth Miss had gotten lucky from her misfortune and cured her silly disease … 'Am I not, moreover, married into a royal concubine? ' Is it... Your servant has done a great job … Is it... ”Spare this servant, this servant will never dare to do so again …” Zhu Xin struggled to get up and started to kowtow.

”Evil slave, he's an evil slave. What grudge or hatred does the Little Four have with you, what grudges did my mother have with you, and what about the four dead female servants, as well as Mo Yan and the little child … ”You are an evil spirit …” Zhuo Qingfan really felt that his words were poor and couldn't find the words to scold her.

Chu Yichen closed his eyes. Listening to all of this, he finally understood why Zhuo Qingyan had nightmares every night, hated how people suspected her, and how careful she was. He finally understood what kind of life she was leading.

He put his hand on her shoulder to give her encouragement, but he couldn't find the words to comfort her.

”Zhu Xin, the human heart is kind. I really do not know how you became like this, but each and every one of them are fresh lives, yet here with you, they are nothing more than grass. Honestly speaking, I really do not know how to punish you, or let you go, but for those who have wronged you, it is too unfair.

”Fourth Miss, don't...” Whatever you want me to say, I said it already … You can't go back on your word... I don't want to die... ”I don't want to die …” Hearing that, Zhu Xin shouted anxiously.

”Zhu Xin, you really don't understand, there are some things that cannot be forgiven. Let me ask you, about Mo Yu, who came up with this idea? It's just getting beaten up, and those dirty thoughts afterwards, who came up with that idea?” Zhuo Qingyan gritted her teeth and asked.

”This... This... Is Third Miss... None of my business... ”It's not me …” Zhu Xin didn't dare admit it anymore, she was afraid that she really couldn't live anymore.

”Zhu Xin, you are underestimating me, Zhuo Qingyan. Don't you understand that I was able to bring you here from the Zhuo Clan? Begging me? When they begged you? What was wrong with Mo Yan? She was only seventeen, and she was a little kid. You are not fit to be a human, living is such a waste of food! ” Zhuo Qingyan's killing intent was obvious.

Chu Yi Chen immediately opened his mouth and said, ”Ye Feng, take care of this person.”

”Yes sir!” With a chop of the blade from Ye Feng's hand, Zhu Xin fainted.

Chu Yi Chenqiang held her as they walked out of the dungeon. Looking at Zhuo Qingfan who had lost his soul, he couldn't help but sigh. ”Let's talk in the study.”

When the three of them arrived at the study, the servants immediately prepared the milk and tea. They also increased the temperature of the stove in the room because they saw the Princess and Young Master Zhuo trembling.

After taking off Zhuo Qingyan's big fur coat and hanging it up, he pulled her to sit on the wooden bed beside her and held her hand: ”Qingyan, you don't need to worry about this Zhu Xin, I will handle it.”

”You heard it, didn't you? Her hands are stained with the blood of innocent people. I can't let her live. It's not fair to those who have died … ” Zhuo Qingyan looked at him.

”This King knows that she will not live for long. This King still has questions to ask her. Can you trust This King?” Chu Yi Chen nodded to her seriously.
