Chapter 257 Cause and Effect
Chapter 257 Cause and Effect
"No!"
Sun Zhengze's pupils shrank suddenly, and he saw a cold silver light flashing suddenly from Lin Yujiang's arms, and a large amount of blood spurted out from his throat.
He covered his throat, trembling, and hit it hard in a strange way.
The room was filled with a thick, lingering smell of blood. Lin Yujiang was covered in blood, but he seemed unaware of it. He stabbed several more times until he was exhausted, then he stopped.
A raging fire started behind him and it took a long time to be extinguished.
Lin Yujiang stood up, his eyes drifted in a certain direction, he suddenly smiled terrifyingly, and walked out of the door.
……
Zhenguogongfu.
When Yun Yan came back, Yun Shuning was sitting in a rocking chair in the main hall, drinking tea leisurely.
"Sister." He greeted with a smile.
Yun Shuning was a little surprised: "Why did Second Brother come back so early?"
Yun Yan took out a booklet from his bosom and handed it to her: "This is the situation of our army's casualties in recent times."
There were hundreds of cases recorded on it, and Yun Shuning immediately saw the problem: "There are so many injured people, but they are using the most basic and least effective medicines."
Although such medicine can be bought everywhere and is cheap, it also has a drawback.
That is, the battlefield often does not wait for anyone. If the injuries do not get better in time, it will undoubtedly be fatal to a stalemate in the war.
Yun Yan agreed, "Yes, that's what I wanted to discuss with you."
"I have also considered investing a large amount of money to solve the problem of wound medicine, but many drug dealers I contacted would take the opportunity to raise the price of the medicine. I spent a lot of money, but the improvement was minimal," Yun Yan said, "So, I want to discuss with you to promote the wound medicine in your clinic to the army."
Yun Shuning nodded and said, "I have no objection to this. I just happened to develop a new medicine for healing injuries, and I was thinking of discussing with you guys whether it can be promoted to the military."
Although the war has temporarily subsided, it is always better to be prepared. The sooner the medicine in her hands is promoted to the army, the sooner the soldiers will receive strong combat support, which will reduce the mortality rate of the wounded patients to a certain extent.
The two were discussing in detail the next work to be done when a servant suddenly ran in from outside the door.
"Second Master, Miss, there is a woman outside who claims to be your sister and wants to see you."
elder sister?
Yun Shuning was stunned and immediately figured out who it was.
There would be no one else except Lin Yujiang who would come to see her like this.
Yun Shuning remained calm: "Tell her I won't see her."
Lin Yujiang inherited Lin Cheng's true teachings and has been very concerned about her reputation since she was a child. After rejecting her last time, he came again today. There must be some clue.
Yun Yan naturally thought of what Yun Shuning was thinking. He waved his hand, and the servant nodded in agreement and left quickly.
"Second brother, I will go to prepare the medicine for the wounds in the next few days. If there is any news, I will let you know at any time."
Yun Yan nodded and was about to say something when the servant outside the door ran in again with a sad face: "Miss, you should go and take a look. The man is kneeling on the ground and refuses to leave. The people have surrounded him in a circle."
Yun Shuning frowned slightly: "You really won't give up. Okay, don't make it difficult for me. I'll go and take a look."
Yun Yan also followed: "I'll go with you."
When the two men walked to the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, they saw Lin Yujiang kneeling there with a sad expression on her face, her body covered in blood. If one didn't know, one would think that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion had bullied her.
Yun Shuning ignored the whispers of the people around him and stepped forward and asked, "Why are you looking for me?"
A dark light flashed across Lin Yujiang's eyes, but she quickly hid it, raised her head and said sadly: "You are finally willing to see me?"
She grabbed Yun Shuning's skirt and said, "You know, Sun Lingyi is dead. His Royal Highness Prince Rui blamed the Sun Mansion and asked them to give him an explanation within three days, otherwise he would treat it as conspiracy to murder the royal family and kill all nine clans."
"So what if I know? This is something that your Sun Mansion did, and it's Prince Rui that was offended. What are you doing kneeling at the door of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion? If someone who doesn't know the truth sees you, they might think we're bullying you."
Lin Yujiang cried, "It is because Sun Lingyi offended His Royal Highness Prince Rui that I came to beg you. I know you are on good terms with His Royal Highness Prince Rui, and he will certainly listen to you. Please forgive us and spare our lives!"
She kowtowed several times, then stood up tremblingly, trying to hold Yun Shuning's hand. Just as Yun Shuning was about to avoid her, she saw a flash of cold silver light before her eyes.
Lin Yujiang had a stern look on his face. He pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed it towards Yun Shuning's heart.
Everyone was so shocked that their eyes widened, and they didn't know what to do for a moment.
Only Yun Yan, who had been staring at Lin Yujiang coldly, was the first to notice something was wrong. Almost at the moment when Lin Yujiang drew his knife, he flashed and chopped at Lin Yujiang's wrist bone like lightning.
Lin Yujiang felt pain for a moment and immediately released his strength, and the dagger with a silver glow fell to the ground.
Yun Yan protected Yun Shuning behind him and said coldly, "Someone, arrest her."
Dozens of guards immediately rushed out of the mansion, surrounded Lin Yujiang and arrested him.
Lin Yujiang was not panicked at all. Instead, she laughed crazily and said, "Yun Shuning, it's all your fault! You destroyed everything for me. You stood by me and did nothing to save me. You made me fall to this point and caused me to lose my child. I want you to pay with your life!"
As she was about to pounce on him, Yun Yan's eyes turned cold and fierce, and he suddenly became murderous: "Why don't you take her away quickly?!"
The guards immediately responded and dragged the man away by force.
Yun Yan waved his hand, asking the guards to disperse the people, and turned around and asked, "Ning'er, are you okay? Are you scared?"
Yun Shuning came back to his senses and shook his head: "I'm fine."
She frowned as she looked at the dagger and bloodstains on the ground.
For some reason, she always felt that something was not right about Lin Yujiang's state when she left.
Sure enough, within half a day, Yun Shuning received the news that she had committed suicide by hitting her head against the wall in prison. Then Yun Yan told her that Lin Yujiang killed the entire Sun family before coming to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and destroyed the bodies and burned them.
Yun Shuning sighed softly, pursed her lips and said nothing.
There must be something hateful about a pitiful person, and there is cause and effect in the universe.
She turned her head and looked at the rain pouring down outside the hall, and said softly, "It's raining..."
It's raining.
The downpour came suddenly and violently, as if the sky was pulled apart and the sea was overturned, pouring down with a loud noise. In an instant, thousands of small streams gathered on the ground and spread out.
……
Raindrops fell sporadically from the eaves of the East Palace, reflecting pearl-like light in the faint morning light, rolling along the tender leaves and seeping down.
Pei Yan was absentmindedly fiddling with the teacup on the table when she suddenly saw Mingzhu walk in angrily, "Madam, the man living in Meiyuan is really going too far!"
Pei Yan paused for a moment, then calmed down again.
"what happened?"
Mingzhu then recounted everything that had just happened: "I wanted to get the lotus seed soup for the queen just now, but the maid from Meiyuan Ji insisted on snatching it away, and she kept saying that her master needed the lotus seed soup more than you."
"I think she did it on purpose. Lotus seed soup is not a rare thing. Why does she have to compete with the queen for it?"
Mingzhu's eyes were red as she finished speaking: "My Lady, the girl from Meiyuan is just relying on her popularity in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a few days to act so recklessly. If you don't know her, you would think she is the mistress of the East Palace."
