Chapter 429: The Bottom of Mengtan
Looking at my confused appearance, Ji Juan "admired" me angrily.
"Oh, I don't know how you got to where you are now." Sighing, Ji Juan patiently explained to me: "Do you remember when the six of us first entered the Qin Palace, we didn't understand the rules and etiquette at the beginning, and often talked together? ”
I nodded, expecting her words more.
"Once you smiled at the pears on the tree, and after laughing, you were instantly full of frustration, I saw that Ji had suddenly come to you, and asked you why you were smiling and worried, and her voice was sharp at that time, and there was a needle in her smile, and I knew that she was wary of you, so she never showed up, but only looked at you from afar..."
According to Ji Juan's description, I vaguely remembered that the matter was probably like this:
The palace of King Qin is full of fruit trees, and in summer and autumn, the fruits in the back garden can be seen everywhere, and I looked at the pear trees full of branches and thought, if this pure natural pear grows in modern times, it will have to catch up with the auction price. I couldn't help but smile when I remembered that everyone would be curious to visit, but I quickly became depressed: I may never go back.
"Sister Xi smiled and worried, why?" A sharp voice suddenly came out of my ears, and Ji had already walked towards me, smiling with a needle in her face.
"It's a moment of sadness." I smiled lightly and didn't pay much attention to her.
Ji didn't leave anymore, she stopped beside me and chatted with me very warmly.
"Sister is worried about the fruit of Qi Kingdom, not for a long time, right?" She asked.
I was shocked, and at that time I was still panicking day and night about the irregular death of the princess who entered the palace from time to time, so I persuaded her to stop.
"It's a lot to worry about."
Ji didn't think so, she refuted my argument and said: "Homesickness is the normal feeling of people, worrying about the country is forced by others, and no one can stop our original heart." ”
Ji Wan frowned and continued: "I didn't want us to cause trouble so lightly at that time, so I raised my eyebrows and saw the black-robed man who stopped not far away wearing embroidered dragon clothes, and hurriedly went out to join you.
Later, Ji had already said to me. She saw the black-robed man who was staring at you, and she also guessed that the black-robed man must be the king of Great Qin, so she deliberately talked about it beside you, so that the king could listen.
Since then, we all know that you have been taken by the king, but the king did not honor you, it was Ji Ji's family letter, there must be this detail and her dislike for the king, and you are disgusted, so you advised the king to destroy the other five kingdoms first, which is very credible! ”
After affirming his own point of view, Ji Juan suddenly broke out another strong message to me: "I don't know if you know, Ji is different from us." She came to the palace with the intention of assassinating her, and I saw a sharp weapon in the house where she lived, and I once secretly handed a letter to the king with a large amount of money. ”
didn't feel guilty for betraying Ji Ji, but Ji Juan was complacent about her foresight, which was not a sin after she fell in love with Yingzheng and was betrayed by Ji Dan, but when she betrayed Ji Ji, we were all still "sisters and sisters" who depended on each other.
They had the foresight to repay their hatred in advance. Or am I maturing too late to keep up with the mental nature that the world needs?
Feeling bitterly sad, I raised my hand and poured a glass of wine, which I drank to warm my heart.
The thoughtful and ruthless Ji Juan. She said these detailed things to me about Mengtan, she probably didn't just want to kindly remind me how to better prevent Mengtan!
"Sister Wan wants to borrow my hand to get rid of the person who killed you for you, right?" I looked at her with a sneer.
Ji Juan once again did not deny what I said, but she also changed her perspective and did not admit my statement.
"Please. I don't have that mind yet. She glanced at me contemptuously, and didn't intend to show the slightest hint of begging me to do something, and said lazily: "It's just that she compares to you." I'd rather her go down and be with me.
Hey~~~ I want to hear her explain her ingratitude to me, and I want to have a cup of bitter wine with her and Ji Ji, and if she lives, you have to die, so I say it just to achieve my personal purpose. ”
She shook her body lazily, changed her comfortable position, and gently touched her fingers and said, "As for which of you to go down, you can decide for yourself, I will wait and see." ”
At this point, I also heard Ji Juan's mentality that she could have a premonition that she might not see the light of day again, but in the same way, I could also understand from her eyes and her expression that she longed for a miracle to happen and things to turn around, and this contradiction of despair and hope made me want to shed tears.
"In order to achieve your wishes, I will find out if the story you tell is true."
I didn't dare to persuade her to have vitality in her heart, because I was afraid that she would seriously depict the beauty after prison, and the stupidity of longing for hope without hope was the most distressing.
"I'll take the flowers, and leave me the wine, it's time for you to go out, otherwise your leg disease is as bad as the child, and I'll have to follow you unlucky."
Although it was full of ruthlessness and ridicule, I could hear that Ji Juan was both envious and concerned about me.
"I met a prison officer here when you had an accident, and I will try to get him to add you some drinks, but after all, this is the home of the Li family, and the relationship between you and Mrs. Li is directly related to whether you can drink this drink."
Mrs. Li and Ji Juan colluded and allied, but after Ji Juan was entangled in trivial matters, she didn't see Mrs. Li help her, and there were so many scars on Ji Juan's body at this time, I think she didn't take care of it.
It is that Su Ji can make it easier for Ji Wan to be accommodating, if the Li family is hostile to the princess other than Mrs. Li in the Inner Palace, then Ji Wan will not think about preferential treatment.
I couldn't bear to stay any longer to listen to Ji Wan tell her tragic afterlife, and I didn't want to see her tenacity, pain, arrogance, and bluff towards me, so I got up on the desk, I walked out without saying goodbye, and never looked back.
Seeing me pacing out slowly, Luo Cong hurriedly ran over to support me, and Su Ji also came up to listen to the instructions.
After walking out for a distance, I felt a little calmer after leaving Ji Juan's aura, and said my request to Su Ji before I was released from prison.
"If it's convenient, don't use it if you can not be tortured, so that she will not have to suffer some hardships in her next time."
A person with a high temperament like Ji Juan, who has fallen out of favor in prison, is already cold to the end, and she is lonely and cold in the world, and the bitterness in her heart is already bitter enough.
Su Ji agreed while following me.
"Whoa!"
"The matter of this palace coming here today must have reached the ears of many people, this palace is worried that someone will force Mrs. Jean to ask for details, if she is in a hurry, she may also attack her, please help me when you can help me."
After all, Su Ji is just a subordinate official, if someone like the Li family wants to do something to Ji Juan, it is better to monitor it secretly, but if he does it openly, then he can't say a word.
"Whoa!" Su Ji agreed again.
"Lord Su." I stopped.
"The slave doesn't dare, the slave is in front of Mrs. Xi, and he will always be the little jailer at the beginning." He said humbly.
"How come, this palace knows that you have the heart to return the favor of this palace, but the situation is changing, you are already the left prisoner of the dungeon, and you are no longer the little jailer who sent prison food in the past." I watched him continue to hang his head, and said with a warm smile: "Aren't you still going to be the prisoner of the palace who eats prison food?" ”
This remark relieved Su Ji's humility, and he knelt down in a hurry and apologized.
"Minions don't dare!"
"Hurry up." I knew that he was a little excited, so he reacted so much, and after he got up and stood firm, he said: "This palace also has a reluctant request, which may cause trouble for Lord Su, but this palace doesn't want Lord Su to be embarrassed, so I think Lord Su can do it, and if he can't do it, it's fine." ”
Su Ji took a deep breath, exuding a kind of tenacity and pride of "never giving up", and opened his mouth with assurance.
"Lady Creek, please."
In the tormented days of reluctance to die and hopelessness, it is better to be drunk and dream of death than to be awake and breathe painfully.
"This palace has just put a wine jug in Madame Jean's prison, she is irritable every day, you can let her drink some time to pass the time. Later, someone from Qixi Palace will come to send wine money, and please ask Lord Su not to excuse himself, even if someone else asks, he only says that it is a gift from the palace. ”
If someone who is interested in finding fault asks, it is better to push it to me than to let Su Ji bear it, no matter what, I can't make me guilty of sending wine to Mrs. Jean, and if Su Ji bears it, it will be a big sin.
Su Ji also understood the severity, he understood that a pot of wine could not affect me anything, so he complied.
"Whoa!"
Outside the dungeon was full of people on duty as it had been when I came, and it was estimated that none of them had really dispersed, waiting to see me off.
Ying Zheng's preference is really an extremely important survival rule, because I hold Ying Zheng's token, so I can accept everyone's admiration; Because he lost the interest of Yingzheng, Ji Juan was humiliated and tortured in the dungeon, and was regarded as a dying person who would never see the light of day again.
"It is your duty to fulfill your duties, go back to do things, and this palace will not bother."
My words caused the crowd to bow down.
"Congratulations to Mrs. Brook!"
I looked back at Su Ji and nodded, and left there with pity and pity for Ji Juan.
I don't know what Ying Zheng would be like if he was willing to see his once favored wife in such a situation, I don't know if Ying Zheng would be so tired of abandoning me one day, and I don't know what my result would be. (To be continued......)
