After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Perhaps he ran too fast, perhaps he had no strength, and the man fell to the ground two steps away from the fence door.

"Kong'er..." She raised her head, her messy hair fell down, revealing a haggard face.

The light of the fire flickered, making this face sometimes teary-eyed and sometimes cold and weird. Not only the child, but Liu Yunxiang and the others also took two steps back unconsciously.

It was really hard for her to believe that the man in front of her, who was wearing a dirty prison uniform, had half white hair, and looked much older, was actually Feng!

She raised her head as hard as she could, with tears in her eyes trembling violently. She looked at her son and stretched out her hand eagerly, "Kong'er, come on, come here and let me take a good look."

She spoke feebly, and her whole body was reduced to skin and bones. There is no mirror here, she doesn't know what she looks like now, she doesn't know that her son hasn't recognized her yet, and is even afraid of her.

"Kong'er, what's wrong with you? Why don't you come over and let mother touch your face?" Feng looked at her son eagerly.

"Husband, madam?" Xiaolian called out uncertainly.

Feng turned around and saw that it was her maid, and nodded quickly, "Good girl, let Brother Kong come over quickly, why doesn't he seem to recognize me?"

After receiving Feng's response, Xiaolian couldn't hold back and started to cry.

"Madam, you...how did you become like this...you must have suffered a lot here..."

After hearing this, Mrs. Feng realized it later. She hurriedly touched her face with her hands, hurriedly arranged her messy hair, and then looked at the dirty prison clothes on her body, her eyes widened.

"I, I must look very embarrassed now! No, I can't scare Kong'er!" She panicked and wanted to hide back in the darkness.

"Mom!" Brother Kong rushed forward, and it was only at this moment that he recognized his own mother, "Mom, why are you here? Don't you want Kong'er anymore? Why don't you go home?"

After asking three questions in a row, Feng couldn't answer. She could only crawl over with difficulty, hold her son's hand, and touch his little face.

The child wanted to hug his mother, but he couldn't hug her through the fence, so he could only cry helplessly.

"Mom, come out quickly, let's go home!"

"It's so cold and dirty here, you can't be here!"

"I was able to recite the entire "Three Character Classic". I went home and recited it to my mother. My mother promised to take me to Zhuangzi to stay for a few days when I could memorize it. Then I could play with my friends on Zhuangzi. .”

"Kong'er, good boy, don't cry anymore." Feng wiped her son's tears with trembling hands, but her hands were dirty. Instead, she wiped the child's clean little face dirty, and she retracted helplessly. Hands, let Xiaolian wipe her son's hands.

"Mom, let's go home!" Brother Kong held Feng's hand stubbornly.

"Kong'er, Mom can't go home with you yet. You should be good and listen to your father in the future. Don't make him angry. If you are wronged, go to your grandmother. She will still care about you to some extent."

"Dad always scolds me and beats me. I hate him! I don't like my grandmother either. She always says something bad about you!" Brother Kong said angrily.

These words undoubtedly touched Feng's heart, "Are they not treating you well?"

"No, no, no, I just want my mother!"

"Kong'er..."

Feng couldn't help but burst into tears, "Mom can't help you, mother... there's nothing I can do about it..."

"I don't care, I don't care, mother, come out of this cage quickly and take me away from this place!"

Brother Kong was so noisy that Xiaolian had to coax him to go out first.

Seeing this scene, Liu Yunxiang let out a long sigh, "Ms. Feng, I am also a mother, and I understand how you feel now."

Liu Yunxiang took two steps forward and walked into the bright light. She looked at Feng steadily, her eyes slowly becoming sharp.

"But you killed someone, and you deserved it."

Feng raised his head suddenly, his eyes widened, and he looked eager to say something, but after a struggle, he fell silent again.

"Yes, this is my retribution."

Liu Yunxiang narrowed his eyes, "But is it really you who killed Xiao Wu?"

Feng's body stiffened, "Oh, I'm not stupid. If I didn't kill the person, how could I plead guilty."

"Maybe..." Liu Yunxiang bent down, stared at Feng, hesitated, and said, "Maybe someone is forcing you?"

"No!" Feng quickly denied, "No one forced me, I was the one who killed the fifth girl!"

Liu Yunxiang straightened up and looked at Feng who was huddled in the cold cell. She let out a long sigh.

"You saved her, but I really don't understand why you killed her again."

"I, I didn't mean to kill her, but I accidentally missed her..."

"If you accidentally miss it, you will be stabbed a dozen times?"

"I was... panicked... confused... I don't know why I killed him."

Liu Yunxiang raised his hands and took a step back, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and then spring, and your execution day is coming. You don't have much chance anymore. Think about your son, think about Xiao Wu who died innocently and tragically, think about Just yourself."

After saying that, Liu Yunxiang turned around and walked out.

After leaving the prison door, Xiaolian coaxed Brother Kong, but the child was clamoring to go in to see his mother.

Liu Yunxiang asked Xue Changfeng to take them in, while she took Zijin to leave first.

Walking on the street, Liu Yunxiang kept thinking about the Xiao Wu case. If Feng was not the murderer, then she must be covering up someone. Who is this person?

The answer is obvious, it must be Xue Hefeng.

But why did Xue Hefeng kill Xiao Wu?

This case is really getting more confusing the more I think about it, and I can't figure it out.

"Seventh younger brother and sister, what a coincidence!"

Hearing this, Liu Yunxiang looked up and saw the fourth prince's concubine Bai Jingyu standing not far away, greeting him with a smile.

Looking at her like this, she didn't look like someone who had just lost two children and was in agony. Liu Yunxiang hesitated for a moment, then smiled at Bai Jingyu and walked towards her.

When she walked over, Jiang Yunying was helped by the maid to get out of the carriage from behind. Her belly was already bulging. She was surrounded by two maids and two women, who were even bigger than the concubine Bai Jingyu.

Bai Jingyu took two steps forward and held Liu Yunxiang's hand affectionately, "We haven't gotten together in a while. Let's call Sister-in-Law another day and let's get together."

Liu Yunxiang smiled and nodded, "That's good."

As she said this, she looked at Jiang Yunying who was walking behind and smiled at her.

Jiang Yunying stepped forward and saluted Liu Yunxiang.

"These days of recuperation, I am trapped in my house every day, never leaving the door. Fortunately, Yun Ying often goes over to accompany me, so I won't be too bored. Today is a rare day, and Yun Ying said he would take me out to relax. This sister is really thoughtful." Bai Jingyu turned around and took Jiang Yunying's hand and said.

Liu Yunxiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Concubine Jiang is indeed considerate."

"She is more gentle and kind. She and I are not biological sisters, but we are better than biological sisters."

After exchanging pleasantries, Bai Jingyu and Jiang Yunying went to the nearby silk and satin shop to buy cloth. Looking at the backs of the two of them, Liu Yunxiang's eyes darkened.

"Girl, this fourth imperial concubine is too stupid." Zijin shook his head.

"Maybe he is smart." Liu Yunxiang said.

"what?"
