Could it be that this person is a thief? Jiang Ji thought like this, and a glimmer of hope suddenly appeared in her heart.

The thief snuck in, and the door must not have been closed. At this moment, she was searching the bookshelf, and she happened to have her back to Jiang Xi.

Jiang Xi took a soft breath, landed on all fours, and began to move towards the door little by little.

The maidservant girl was still facing away from Jiang Xi, rummaging through the bookshelves. Jiang Xi suppressed the wild heartbeat, tried not to make any noise, and slowly crawled to the center of the room. As long as she climbed forward for more than ten steps, she would be able to hide behind the curtain.

Looking at the purple embroidered Shu brocade curtain with crane pine and bamboo patterns, Jiang Xi's eyes burst out with a light of hope.

But at this moment, there was a loud "snap" under her palm, and then she found that the green bricks under her palm were actually cracking to both sides.

"Ahh Jiang Ji shrieked and retracted her hand, trembling and crawling back two steps, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the servant girl turning her head suddenly, and a pair of slender eyes with cold light emerged, staring coldly on her body.

"Don't kill me, please don't kill me." Jiang Ji pleaded desperately as she stepped back. Now she doesn't even have the strength to stand up, so she can only use her hands and feet to step back.

"Ginger...... Two girls? The servant girl opened her mouth with some hesitation, with a hint of obvious surprise on her face. Her voice was very rough, as if she was muffled in her throat, and it was unspeakably uncomfortable to hear.

Jiang Xi stopped suddenly.

Does this handmaid know herself?

She looked at the other with her eyes wide open and a look of horror.

"It's Jiang Xi. Second girl Jiang, right? The maidservant continued, and as she spoke, she came over.

Jiang Xi was so frightened that she climbed back two more steps, and only had to stop when she retreated to the wall, opening her frightened eyes wide and looking at the person in front of her.

She had never seen the servant before, but it was clear that she knew her.

"Second Miss Jiang, how are you here?" The maidservant walked up to Jiang Ji and stopped, looking at her suspiciously.

Jiang Xi shrank up tightly, and a cool air appeared on her back.

She saw it clearly. The handmaid had a dagger in her hand. The cold light on the tip of the knife pierced her whole heart.

The maidservant seemed to see that she was extremely frightened, so she squatted down and said softly, "The girl probably doesn't know me anymore, I'm Quan'er." At the time of Gusu. I am the sprinkler in the courtyard of Mrs. Song in Jinhui Hall. ”

Kam Fai Tong ...... Mrs. Song...... Gusu ......

These are already like people or things from a previous life. It suddenly appeared in Jiang Xi's mind.

She looked at Quan'er in a daze. A very faint shadow gradually appeared in front of him: short, thin, always with his head down, silently sweeping the ground outside the corridor of Jinhui Hall.

Truly. She still vaguely remembered the name, Jinhui Hall did have such an inconspicuous sprinkler maid, called Quan'er. However, what does that girl look like, Jiang Xi has no impression at all.

"It's great to meet her." There was a hint of joy in Quan'er's tone, "Just ask the girl to run for me, I can do other things." Her eyes curled into a thin line with a smile.

However, looking at Quan'er's smiling face, the hairs on Jiang Xi's whole body stood up.

"You...... You want me to do it...... What to do? She asked in a trembling voice.

What answered her was the tip of the cold knife that instantly hit her throat.

Jiang Xi's whole body stiffened for a while, and she didn't dare to move.

"Girl, run a trip to the British Prince's Mansion for me." Quan'er's voice was very relaxed, as if she was asking her to go to the back garden. As she spoke, Quan Er had an extra pill in her hand at some point.

"Come on, open your mouth and eat it." Quan'er laughed.

"This ...... What is this...... Jiang Xi's words were only halfway through, Quan'er had already stuffed the pill into her mouth, and the tip of the knife in her hand was slightly forced, Jiang Xi was so frightened that she quickly closed her mouth.

"Swallow it." Quan'er's voice was still smiling, but her small eyes were cold.

Jiang Xi clenched her fists, and Quan'er sent the tip of the knife forward.

A stinging pain came from her throat, followed by Quan'er's soft giggle: "It's already bleeding, if you don't swallow again, my hands will continue to shake." ”

Jiang Xi's face was as white as paper, and her lips were bloodless. Knowing that the pill was not a good thing, he had to swallow it with his neck straight in order to survive.

Suddenly, a salty and sweet taste came up from her throat, and Jiang Xi couldn't help coughing.

"Open your mouth!" Quan'er ordered the tunnel.

Jiang Xi opened her mouth, and let Quan'er pick up the tip of her tongue with a dagger to look at it, and she couldn't help but hate and fear in her heart.

In her impression, Quan'er is a stupid girl, but where is she stupid at the moment? It was extremely meticulous, afraid that she didn't swallow the medicine, and told her to open her mouth to check.

Seeing Jiang Xi swallowing the "pill", Quan'er seemed to be relieved, she put away the dagger, turned around and came to the blue brick that had just cracked, and took out a bag of things from the inside, while saying: "You are taking a highly poisonous medicine, if you don't eat the antidote within an hour, you will bleed to death from seven holes." ”

Jiang Xi's face was blue and gray, her whole body was so soft that she didn't have any strength, she couldn't move against the wall, and only looked at Quan'er with a pair of distracted eyes.

Quan'er turned back to her, handed her the bag of things, and said with a smile: "You go to the British King's Mansion to get the antidote, I don't have it here." ”

Jiang Xi was shocked.

Antidote? Will she really be able to get the antidote?

"As long as you run to the British Palace, they will give you the antidote." Quan'er said.

"You...... You are talking nonsense...... Royal Court ...... How can there be an antidote? Jiang Ji said in a trembling voice, with a look of disbelief.

"I said yes, yes." Quan'er didn't care much and said, "If you stay here, you won't be able to escape death, I gave you a chance to live, don't you want it?" Do you want to go into the cage? Or do you want to be poisoned? ”

Jiang Xi couldn't stop trembling again.

She didn't want to go into the cage, she didn't want to be poisoned, and she didn't want to die!

She hasn't lived enough, she hasn't enjoyed the glory and wealth, why should she die so humbly?!

At that moment, Jiang Xi didn't know where the strength came from, and she stood up all of a sudden.

Quan'er was right.

She will inevitably die, and now that Quan'er has given her a glimmer of life, she can only jump down even if it is a trap.

Jiang Xi made a decision in an instant.

She took the bag of things in Quan'er's hand and asked in a trembling voice, "What should I do?" ”

"It's easy." Quan'er said, a gleam flashed in her small eyes, "You go to the British King's Mansion now and tell them that you are Diding Yiqi, and you have something important to report." They will let you in, and you will give them your things, and then tell them that the king will do it. Whatever they ask, just tell the truth. ”

"Tell the truth?" Jiang Ji looked at Quan'er, and her eyes showed doubt, "If they ask about you......"

"You tell the truth." Quan'er said briefly. With that, she waved her hand, "Go quickly, the North Point Gate is open, and from there, go out across the street and then south to Jinshui Lane." (To be continued.) )
