After rebirth, my wife just wants to be a widow

Hearing Shen Ruoyan say the word "divorce his wife", the man finally stopped leaving and clenched his slender hands into a fist.

Lu Yan turned around and looked at Shen Ruoyan, an inexplicable emotion flashing through his cold eyes.

The two people's eyes met in the air. Shen Ruoyan held her head up stubbornly and refused to give in. The two of them were in a stalemate quietly. Just when Shen Ruoyan thought that he would pounce on her and hit her, Lu Yan suddenly gritted his teeth and threw it. Next sentence:

"Don't go out for the next few days."

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and walked out with his hands behind his back.

Shen Ruoyan fell down on the bed, trembling uncontrollably.

She couldn't imagine what kind of uproar would be caused in the court because of the discovery of those letters. Her family would not be able to escape the crime at all. What made her even more unacceptable was that the one who handed the butcher's knife to the executioner was herself!

Not long after, Qin'er was sent back.

The little girl saw Shen Ruoyan huddled in the corner, holding her knees with her hands, and hurriedly walked over.

But no matter how she called, Shen Ruoyan's eyes were always empty and there was no response.

What happened to the lady?

When my uncle came out just now, he lost his temper and was so frightened that all the attendants dared not say a word. Now that the young lady has become like this again, Qin'er, who doesn't know anything, can only worry on the sidelines.

The master and servant were put under house arrest in the small courtyard.

Three meals a day were delivered by dedicated personnel. In order to prevent them from escaping, Lu Yan also arranged several guards in the front and back of the courtyard to keep their hands at the door twelve hours a day.

Shen Ruoyan had made troubles, had quarrels, and even secretly bribed her servants with gold and silver jewelry, begging them to let her go out once, but these methods all ended in failure.

Shen Ruoyan was very hateful. She hated Lu Yan's hard-heartedness, and she hated her own powerlessness even more. She could only watch her family fall into a desperate situation, and she couldn't do anything.

She and Qin'er were trapped in this small courtyard, like fish stranded on the beach, struggling desperately but without hope.

Gradually, Shen Ruoyan became silent, neither crying nor fussing nor talking.

Finally one day, an uninvited guest came to the small courtyard.

Su Xihe walked in carelessly with a few maids. When she saw the woman sitting on the bed with a pale face, she stared blankly at a tree of crape myrtle flowers in full bloom outside the window. Su Xihe smiled and knew He cleared his throat and said:

"Sister, I'm so excited and want to enjoy the flowers here."

There was no reaction from the person on the bed, but Qin'er immediately stood in front of her young lady like an old hen guarding her young, and said coldly to Su Xihe:

"What are you doing here? You're not welcome here, get out!"

Su Xihe seemed to be in a good mood and didn't care about Qin'er's rude attitude. She ordered someone to move a chair and sat down opposite Shen Ruoyan.

Looking at Shen Ruoyan who was still indifferent, Su Xihe raised a cruel smile and asked maliciously:

"Don't my sister know that today is the day when your whole family will be beheaded?"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunder. Shen Ruoyan felt her eyes go dark and almost fainted. Only the strong smell of blood rushed out of her throat to bring her back to reality.

Holding back the cough that came to her mouth, Shen Ruoyan forced down the nauseating feeling.

In the past few days, she had been under house arrest in the yard and could not find out any information. Finally, a talkative person came here. She had to calm down before she could find out more things from Su Xihe.

Shen Ruoyan clenched her fists and dug her nails into her palms. The sharp pain helped her regain some consciousness. Shen Ruoyan said:

"Impossible! My mother is the niece of the Queen Mother. Even if Your Majesty is angry again, he will definitely cherish the past friendship and be lenient to my mother."

"Speaking of your mother..."

Su Xihe paused deliberately, and Shen Ruoyan's heart rose to her throat, praying frantically to hear some good news from Su Xihe's mouth.

However, it is counterproductive.

"Speaking of your mother, Your Majesty originally wanted to spare her life, but unfortunately, she committed suicide in prison yesterday by swallowing gold.

Who told your Shen family to commit a heinous crime? The Holy Father was furious and ordered all the men to be beheaded in public, while the women were made into slaves. Maybe your mother herself felt that she had no shame in living in the world, so she committed suicide.

Oh, by the way, and your sister-in-law, I heard that your brother was beaten to death in prison and just hit his head on the roadside and died, and the blood was flowing..."

Shen Ruoyan couldn't hear anything else after that. Her mind was buzzing and she could only look at Su Xihe's rouged mouth, opening and closing, still saying something.

Everyone is dead!

She didn't even protect an important person!

Thinking of this, Shen Ruoyan could no longer hold back the sweetness in her throat and spat out a mouthful of blood.

A few drops of blood, with the remaining body temperature, splashed on the back of Su Xihe's hand, startling her, and she stopped talking immediately, not daring to speak.

Shen Ruoyan, who was half-leaning on the bed, had long black hair and a pretty face that was so white that it seemed like it had lost all color. Only a trace of blood hanging from the corner of her mouth made her look like a sad and beautiful person. Gorgeous fairy.

Su Xihe was shocked by the scene in front of her and opened her mouth before finding her voice.

"Are you OK?"

Su Xihe stretched out her hand tentatively, trying to make sure that the person in front of her was not a seductive spirit. But just as she was about to get closer, Shen Ruoyan sat up and pushed her away.

Su Xihe didn't expect that Shen Ruoyan would come so suddenly. She was unprepared. She screamed and fell to the ground. She was about to curse a few words when she saw that Shen Ruoyan had already ran out with bare feet.

"Help me up!"

The maids hurriedly helped Su Xihe up from the ground. When she was helped out, they saw that Shen Ruoyan had stumbled out of the courtyard door, her eyes were unfocused, her hair was disheveled, and she was muttering to herself. What.

The woman's body was very thin, and she only wore a white tunic, the hem of which was stained with the blood she had just spit out. A gust of autumn wind blew, and the sleeves of her clothes were fluttering, and blood flowers were tumbling in the air like coquettish blood plums.

Looking at Shen Ruoyan's crazy back, Su Xihe suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

She should obviously be happy, but why are her eyes so sore?

She and Shen Ruoyan had been fighting for more than ten years since she was a child. Ever since she married the same husband, Su Xihe had regarded Shen Ruoyan as a thorn in her side and a thorn in her flesh. She wished that one day Shen Ruoyan could disappear from this world forever.

However, seeing Shen Ruoyan like this now, she felt very uncomfortable.

The famous eldest daughter of the Shen family in the capital was as graceful as a queen and talented. She should be graceful, proud, and looked up to by everyone, but she should not be like this.
