Chapter 7 A Broken Heart (2)
——East Building——
At the gate, people could always be seen coming and going. Even after such a long time, Zhao Ziheng still did not return to the country. He still tried hard to search for Yinyin's whereabouts every day. Although King Zhao had urged him to return many times, Zhao Ziheng declined every time...
The familiar yet unfamiliar figure that had appeared in the capital before arrived at the gate of the [West Pavilion]...
Around dusk, a large number of imperial guards came out of the palace, led by Zhou Cheng, Zhou Yan and Shan Zhen. Each of them had a different expression, as if they were rushing somewhere anxiously?
A figure dressed in women's clothing appeared in a thatched house not far from the hunting ground outside the capital, and put away the men's clothing that had just been changed. It seemed that the figure that appeared in the capital before was her? But what was she doing in the [West Pavilion]?
Just as she was busy cleaning up, a strange cry was heard outside the house. The owner of the figure trembled violently and was frightened. The continuous strange screams made her alert. She turned her head to face the door. When the figure turned around, we could see the owner of this familiar figure!
That’s right, this person is Yin Yin. She was bitten by a tiger in a nearby hunting ground and was afraid of the hunting ground and dared not approach it. However, no one usually approaches the hunting ground and it is very safe. Therefore, although this is the most dangerous place, it is also the safest place!
The strange sound coming from outside the house made Yinyin feel a little chilly, but she had to go out to take a look. So she walked out with fear and anxiety, but the sound that seemed to be outside the house just now seemed a little distant now? As if it was tempting Yinyin? But Yinyin didn't think too much, following the strange sound, Yinyin came to the woods behind the hut, walking deeper and deeper...
Yinyin realized that she had gone too deep into the forest and finally felt something strange, so she stopped. Suddenly, a white shadow passed by, causing Yinyin to continue forward. The sunset in front of her eyes became more and more dazzling, and she was about to walk out of the other end of the forest...
When she just walked out of the forest, a familiar figure appeared in front of Yinyin. Although she had her back to her, Yinyin felt that she had seen this figure before. The sunset in front of her was a little dazzling, and there was a cliff in front of her. Yinyin covered her eyebrows with her hands and asked: "Excuse me, who are you?"
But Yinyin's inquiry did not seem to receive a response. Yinyin felt something was wrong, so she stepped forward. Her disheveled hair covered the side face of the figure. Yinyin moved to the front. When she saw the face of the figure, she immediately screamed and sat down on the ground powerlessly, less than two feet away from the cliff. However, she was even more surprised...
Looking at the face covered in blood, bruises and knife marks, Yin Yin was very sure and shocked and shouted: "Ms. Jiang?"
However, Yinyin's words still received no response, and Yinyin was speechless, because her eyes were fixed on the knife on Jiang Ruting's chest, and she did not notice that Jiang Ruting's hands and feet were tied up, and her clothes were stained with blood and tattered...
When Yin Yin came back to her senses, she spoke incoherently: "Ms. Jiang, Ms. Jiang!"
Yin Yin was trembling and shaking all over at Jiang Ruting's miserable condition. At this moment, Jiang Ruting's body fell forward. Yin Yin immediately stepped forward to catch her and prevented Jiang Ruting from falling on the hard ground. However, because of this, Yin Yin's hands and body were stained with blood. However, Yin Yin had no time to care about these things.
She anxiously called out to Jiang Ruting, hoping that she would respond. However, when she first saw Jiang Ruting, she should have guessed that Jiang Ruting would never wake up again. Such a beautiful woman had left in such a tragic way. Although Yinyin had no good feelings towards Jiang Ruting, her tragic death made Yinyin feel a little sympathetic. She put Jiang Ruting down and prepared to pay tribute...
However, before Yin Yin could go to offer sacrifices, a voice came from behind, breaking the desolate scene. Yin Yin turned around abruptly and saw Zhou Cheng, Zhou Yan, Shan Zhen, and a large number of imperial guards pouring out of the forest. Soon the imperial guards had surrounded Yin Yin, leaving only the cliff behind Yin Yin empty!
Zhou Cheng and the others were speechless as they watched the bloody scene that seemed to have just happened. As Zhou Cheng walked forward step by step, Yin Yin became more and more nervous. Looking at the person lying on the ground, although she was disfigured, Zhou Cheng could still clearly know that this person was Jiang Ruting. He slowly knelt on and slowly reached out to her with trembling hands...
"Why, why are you doing this?"
Zhou Cheng looked at the tragic death of Jiang Ruting, his face already pale, and asked in a trembling, sad and angry voice!
"I--"
Before Yinyin could speak, a clear voice sounded, loud enough for the entire forest and the cliff below to hear...
