He Yuting's concubine and He Chengqi's biological mother, Yu Shi, was instigated by the housekeeper He Luwei. In a moment of obsession, he poisoned the tea that Ling Yun drank.
After the Dongchuang incident, he was forced to commit suicide by He Yuting. When he was sad and desperate, thanks to Ling Yun he stopped him.
He Luwei hurriedly borrowed the donkey to go down the slope, and sincerely begged He Yuting and Princess Changqing to forgive Yu this time.
Princess Chang Qing raised her lips in disapproval, but before she could say anything, He Yuting had already taken over the conversation at the right time.
He looked at Ling Yun with raised eyebrows, and a deep smile appeared on his originally stern face, "Zhichao, you are really broad-minded and don't care about past grudges - your broad-mindedness makes even a father admire you. ! Okay, since you, the person involved, are not pursuing this matter anymore, if I say anything more as a father, wouldn’t it look too petty!”
At this point, he paused slightly, then turned to Princess Changqing for advice and said, "Princess, do you think so?"
Princess Chang Qing rolled her eyes at him and couldn't help but sneered: "Chichao Zhichao is open-minded and doesn't care about this. He Yuting, you also act according to circumstances and go with the flow! After all, you just can't bear it. Let that woman die?
"Well, now that the matter has come to this, let's spare her this time! As the saying goes, you have to forgive others; not to mention she is also a poor woman..."
Princess Chang Qing's mind was spinning, so she had no choice but to comfort herself in this way. Although I was still unhappy, I finally nodded reluctantly.
So the matter ended like this.
Mrs. Yu was even more grateful to Ling Yun.
She knelt on the ground and thanked the eldest son of the Marquis's house for his magnanimity and his kindness in not killing her.
Ling Yun helped her up from the ground and said seriously: "Auntie, maybe there are some misunderstandings between us, but I think these conflicts should be resolved now.
"As for Cheng Qi's matter, I really try my best to handle it well. It's just that people decide what to do and what to do depends on God. But some things are beyond your control...
"Cheng Qi died. I am very sad and guilty. I failed to protect him at the beginning. I also hope that you can forgive me. Now that you have become angry, I think you should have dissipated. I hope From now on, we can all put aside our past grudges and live in harmony.
"Every word Ling Yun said just now came from his heart, but I don't know what my aunt thinks?"
Yu lowered her head silently, covered her face with her hands, and just cried. I cried until I was short of breath and couldn't say a word.
Her weak and helpless shoulders were shaking violently, and the suppressed and painful sobs seemed to be ripped out from the depths of her soul, echoing throughout the hall, making everyone present feel a little confused... …
Two flowers bloom, one on each side. Let’s talk about the Ding Mansion here.
In the living room. Ding Jinzhi, the Minister of Rites, was sitting in front of several cases with a handsome young man in brocade clothes to discuss matters.
At this time, the housekeeper Ding Yurong came in and said, "Sir, there is no one outside who wants to see you."
Ding Jinzhi's deep eyes flashed, and he raised his head and glanced at the young master in brocade beside him.
Young Master Jin Yi did not speak, but slightly narrowed his narrow, sinister eyes, and a smile of unknown meaning passed across the corners of his thin lips.
Ding Jinzhi nodded understandingly and told the butler: "Please."
The young man in Jinyi stood up lazily, walked slowly and slowly to the back of the screen.
After a while, He Yuting walked in cautiously accompanied by the housekeeper Ding Yurong, but his face was as dark as water, as if he was rejecting people thousands of miles away.
Ding Jinzhi seemed not to notice the other party's cold expression, he stepped forward with a smile on his face, grabbed He Yuting's hand and said: "Oh Brother He, you haven't been to my house for some days, I really miss you!
"Last time I came to express my condolences to the Second Young Master, I was not able to see Brother He in person, which is really a pity! This time Brother He came uninvited and came to my house in person, which made me a little flattered!..."
While greeting him warmly, he held He Yuting's hand tightly and led him to his seat, and ordered the attendants to serve tea quickly.
However, He Yuting kept a gloomy face from beginning to end, as if the other party owed him a lot of debt. He looked at Ding Jinzhi with cold eyes as he diligently and diligently sang the one-man show in front of him. He just sipped the tea slowly and continued. No words are spoken.
Ding Jinzhi looked at He Yuting's cold and distant look, and could not help but frown slightly and said: "Brother He lost his son in old age, I deeply sympathize with him. I would like to express my condolences to Brother He, and also ask Brother He to take care of himself and express his condolences." Change along the way.”
The corners of He Yuting's lips were slightly depressed, and the lines on his originally angular and handsome face were now sharper. He said coldly: "Where, isn't all this thanks to Lord Ding?"
The smile on Ding Jinzhi's face slowly froze, "I don't understand what Brother He means."
He Yuting felt his energy and blood surge, and he glared at him with scarlet eyes: "Ding Jinzhi, are you still pretending to be confused with me now? How did my son Cheng Qi die? Do you still need me to go to the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Punishment in person? Can I bring out the dossier and show it to you?"
Ding Jinzhi sighed softly and said slowly: "So, Brother He knows all those things? In this case, I don't need to hide anything in front of Brother He.
"Actually, this is good. You and I can talk about everything openly and honestly, and we don't have to cover up and make each other unhappy."
He Yuting's heart couldn't help but tremble violently, "So, Cheng Qi's case was really designed and planned by you?..."
Ding Jinzhi lowered his head sadly. He pursed his lips tightly and looked lazily at the water glass in his hand. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Well, speaking of this - I had no choice but to do it! I actually quite like this kid Cheng Qi. his……"
He Yuting's eyes trembled with emotion, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Tell me, you... why did you do this?"
Ding Jinzhi's deep eyes flickered for a moment, with a vague fierceness, "Brother He, I can't help myself! That old guy Lu Wenzheng has repeatedly made enemies of my younger brother; the revenge of killing his son is even worse. We are sworn in. I want to take revenge but I am constantly frustrated.
"But the current government is corrupt, the emperor is stupid, and listens to slander. If things continue like this, how can I get ahead? I have no choice but to find another way, cooperate with Gang Leader Li, and ask Gang Leader Li to lend a helping hand to help me get ahead -"
"Gang Leader Li?"
Ding Jinzhi said: "Yes, it's Gang Leader Li Ruiyun and Li!"
He Yuting lost his voice and said: "What, how dare you collude with the Tianxiao organization?"
Ding Jinzhiruo smiled nonchalantly and said, "Brother He, are you surprised?"
Looking at Ding Jinzhi's sinister smile, He Yuting felt his heart sink to the bottom. He remembered what Princess Chang Qing and Ling Yun had said to him that day in the study, and he felt very confused.
His face was ashen, he stood up without saying a word and walked straight out the door.
Ding Jinzhi said: "Brother He, are you going to report to the Holy Master?"
He Yuting didn't answer.
Ding Jinzhi added: "But I would like to remind Brother He that you should carefully consider the consequences of the matter before making any decision. Otherwise, if you make a mistake, it will be too late to regret it."
He Yuting stopped, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, "What do you mean by that?"
Ding Jinzhi said: "Don't Brother He feel any discomfort?"
He Yuting's expression suddenly changed. At this time, he suddenly felt cramps in his abdomen, his liver and intestines were cut off, and his internal organs felt as if they were overwhelming.
He trembled: "What... happened? You did something to the tea I just drank..."
Ding Jinzhi smiled and said: "Brother He, why do you have to speak so harshly? What I asked someone to put into Brother He's tea just now was just a few reassuring pills. As long as Brother He can sincerely cooperate with us, we can jointly deal with Lu Wenzheng." , these reassuring pills are great tonics!"
He Yuting's face was pale, and cold sweat was dripping from his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "You want to get me to join the gang, you are just wishful thinking! The Tianxiao organization brings disaster to the country and the people, and everyone will punish them. I, He Yuting, am loyal to the Holy Emperor and the imperial court. , How can I lose my innocence for the rest of my life? Even if I die, I will never do anything to disgrace the Holy Emperor and the imperial court!"
Ding Jinzhi smiled and said: "Brother He's impassioned speech was really sonorous and powerful! But I still said the same thing. Brother He must think twice before making any decision!
"Although Tingxin Dan can be used as a tonic, it can also be very overbearing at times. If there is no antidote, starting from today, it will attack once every night, and the attack time will become longer and longer, and the intensity will become more and more intense." Brother, are you willing to give it a try?"
He Yuting's whole body was twitching in pain and he was speechless.
At this time, a figure flashed behind the screen, and the elegant young man in gilded clothes slowly walked out, with a smile on his face and said: "Master He, are you okay?"
The person who came was dressed in brocade and jade, with long black hair flowing down. The slanting sword eyebrows inserted into the temples, the blood-red eyes, the slightly aquiline nose, the slightly sunken corners of the mouth, and the angular face more and more vividly accentuated the ruthless and powerful aura exuding from his body.
"Lin'er?!..." The moment He Yuting saw him, he was so shocked that he couldn't even speak. "You...are you a human or a ghost?..."
Mr. Jinyi smiled and said, "Does Mr. He believe that there are ghosts in this world?"
He Yuting said with shock on his face: "But..."
Young Master Jinyi smiled, walked up to He Yuting, and tapped his chin lightly with his parallel fingers. He Yuting was forced to open his mouth, and Young Master Jinyi stuffed a red pill into his mouth.
He Yuting's Adam's apple rolled twice unconsciously, and the pill slipped into his throat and was swallowed along the esophagus.
He Yuting stared at him with wide eyes in horror and murmured: "You... what did you feed me? Do you... you want to hurt me too?..."
Young Master Jin Yi raised his chin slightly, and his dark eyes glowed with a soul-stirring light, "Father, even if the child hurts anyone, he will never hurt you! - Don't worry, this is the antidote, don't you think now? Feeling better?"
After Mr. Jinyi said it, He Yuting felt that the pain had disappeared and his mood became much more stable.
The emotions on his face were rising layer by layer like surging waves. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his expression softened a lot.
He raised his head and exhaled softly: "Tell me, who are you?"...
