Chapter 302: Return to Chess

Sure enough, no matter how suppressed my imagination is, the reality is not up to me to decide-there is no figure of him in Lin Jixiang's palace.

"What are you doing?"

I asked the people in the hall who were packing up their bedding and daily utensils, and the uneasiness in my heart magnified infinitely.

When people heard the question, they turned their heads and saw that it was me, so they hurriedly stopped their work and stood in a row, and one of them answered my question.

"Back to Mrs. Xixi's words, Lin Qingong and the purple taro girl have already left, and the steward often ordered the servants and maids to clean up."

I really wanted to close my eyes and convuls, but I didn't dare to faint at this moment, because when I fainted, many people would have to close their eyes and never wake up again.

I was groggy and pulled Luo Liang out of the guest house, and in a no-man's land, I was depressed for a while before I had the ability to speak.

"Quickly send a message to Xiangjue, saying, 'Stop meeting the King of Qin immediately'." After I spoke, I felt that the strength and heartfelt were not enough, so I was busy and grabbed Luo Onion, and several flashed in my mind and said, I chose the most hypocritical of them: "I want to live, I want to be fast!" ”

It never occurred to me to find out how fast Lin Jixiang's tools were to be in his Circle of Communication, but at this point, I went crazy and wished that his tools were faster than those of his phone, even though I knew it was delusional.

If he hadn't received the message I had from Luo Cong before Lin Jixiang's visit to Yingzheng, if he hadn't had the time or energy to change what he had already decided to say to Yingzheng, if he had been stimulated by my "ruthlessness" to forcibly pull me away, and if he hadn't had Lin Jixiang's miracle of loving me more than his own selfish desires, there would have been no doubt that this matter would have been decided.

At this point, I really don't fear death, the only thing I am afraid of now is that the deceived Yingzheng is sad and angry, and wants to kill everyone who has anything to do with me!

The worst of these must be Luo Onions.

"Ma'am?"

Luo Onion, who came back from sending the message, saw me looking at her with sad eyes, and opened her eyes in horror to ask.

I breathed a long sigh of guilt, and my eyes were blurred with tears for the day after "meeting" me without paying attention to Luo Onion, who lived in fear.

"Dead or alive. It's all in Xiangjue's thoughts, let's go back to the palace and clean up. ”

Although talking to Luo Onion gave her a glimmer of life, I knew in my heart that I had to survive. Then it can only be the blessing of the Bodhisattva and the miracle appears.

"Wear bright makeup for this palace."

When I instructed the grandmother who was dressing me, I thought to myself that if I wore a big red phoenix robe and added blood-red lips and cheeks, the whole color would be similar to the color of blood, and if the blood splashed by the punishment would fall on my body and face, it would be a little less abrupt.

"Whoa!"

Mama agreed, and lived up to my expectations by giving me a bright color and light.

After I made up my makeup, I took a closer look at Tian Tianxi's peerless face in the bronze mirror, she was really beautiful without dead ends, and the description of "heavy makeup is always appropriate" was in line with her temperament.

Mama was very happy to see the essence of the Tiantianxi logo that had changed from the beautiful image of the past. But after a while, she saw that I was silent and had no expression of joy and anger in Dacheng's appearance, and she immediately panicked a little and was about to ask my thoughts. The servants outside the temple appeared, and I knew he was going to appear, but I prayed that he wouldn't appear.

"Mrs. Qiyu, the waiters in the Qiongyang Palace often ask to see you."

I closed my eyes staring at Tian Tianxi, calmed my mind, and agreed to his recital.

"Please!"

Anyway, what should come will still come, Lin Jixiang will continue to walk towards the Qiongyang Palace to resign, and Ying Zheng will call me to confront Lin Ji. With my strength, I can't dodge.

"Lady Creek Kang'an!"

The inner eunuch who came to the Qiongyang Palace was pardoned by my ceremonies, and opened the mouth of the word as I thought.

"The king has an order, please ask Mrs. Xi to move to the Qiongyang Palace before sunset."

I opened my eyes heavily, acquiesced to his request, got up and walked out of Qixi Palace.

Sunset. Isn't that the moment that is coming soon, Ying Zheng emphasizes time, that is, he wants to solve this matter before that time, right?

If Yingzheng had another urgent matter at sunset and had to close the case in a hurry, then he would have no patience and mood to listen to the words of Lin Jixiang and me, so. Maybe I can give it a good time.

I fantasized about it, but I couldn't speed up to unravel the mystery that was about to emerge.

If "sunset" is the time when Ying Zheng angrily summoned me and rushed to exit after hearing Lin Jixiang's own identity, then my delay of one second will anger Ying Zheng even more, right?

Even though I imagined a scenario that could not be delayed, I still could not stride forward to complete the order.

If, I mean, what would happen to Yingzheng if I hadn't arrived at the Qiongyang Palace on time at sunset? What will happen to Lin Jixiang? What will happen to me?

Will I be convicted of the crime with Lin Jixiang in the result that they negotiated before I met Ying Zheng? If there was such a possibility, then I would have been escorted so vaguely, so that at least, I would not have to see Ying Zheng's disappointed eyes looking at me, and I would not have to leave his painful hatred in my mind.

Involuntarily slowed down, slowed down a little, and some...

I walked towards the palace of the King of Qin, not too hurried and not too slow, I could only move forward at the minimum speed prescribed by the palace for the summons of the king.

However, the distance between Qiongyang Palace and Qixi Palace is so far, if I walk at this speed, I will definitely reach Yingzheng before sunset;

If I swagger and don't walk at this minimum speed, I will definitely arouse suspicion (especially on the road where I will be summoned by Yingzheng with Lin Jixiang, there will be more people who are looking forward to the excitement), and I will solicit the murder of the head in the name of slacking off the king's life.

Even if Yingzheng hadn't been convicted of the crime of deception that I had with Lin Jixiang, my charge would have killed me.

Suddenly sad and heartbroken, I wanted to laugh sadly: how unlucky I am, there are dozens of ways to go just to death.

I didn't want to see the pain of Yingzheng, and I couldn't deliberately slow down, I struggled with my mind and struggled on the road paved with stones.

No... No... There are "can't" warning lines everywhere, and the shackles are trapped physically and mentally, and I am almost struggling step by step, suffering disasters inch by inch, and I will walk a way at this time-

Road?

I had a flash of light, and my eyes lit up, and I quickly put it into action.

"Hmm!"

With an exclamation of "accident", I slipped gorgeously on the ground, the water stains did not dry after the rain, and my body was covered with a lot of mud.

"Oh, Mrs. Creek, is there a big problem?"

The attendant eunuch panicked, he didn't want me to go wrong during his completion of the order, but he couldn't lose his temper in front of me, so he had to hang his head in a hurry, and his hands and feet were at a loss.

"It's absolutely impossible to lose your honor in front of you, but this is almost there, this-how is this good?"

He rubbed his trembling hands, his legs shaking with fright.

If he saw Ying Zheng's face was not good when he came out, then it was obvious that he couldn't deliver on time at this time, and the fear of kicking his head to do things was completely understandable.

"Father-in-law, let's go and recover first." I trembled, tried not to be afraid, and forced my breath to say: "Your Majesty, the palace will come." ”

I didn't intend to add the name of this eunuch to the murder book of Yingzheng's rage, so I didn't let him wait for me to return to my life together, or follow me back to Qixi Palace to re-walk the round-trip, but ordered him to go first, and he completed the mission of conveying the task on time, and it was not a dereliction of duty.

The inner eunuch shook his head and looked at the position of the Qiongyang Palace and the Qixi Palace in the direction of both of us, and after a deep sigh, he listened to my words.

"The slave will explain to the king, Mrs. Xi, you are more peaceful."

If I am late in this way, can it be regarded as a reason for Ying Zheng?

In fact, I know in my heart that if Yingzheng is reluctant to reprimand me, then I can understand anything; But if Yingzheng can't look down on me, then I'm unreasonable anyway.

When I arrived at the Qiongyang Palace, only Ying Zheng was there, and I don't know if Lin Jixiang had been detained, in short, I didn't see any people or things about him.

"The slave concubine was ordered to meet her, but she accidentally fell on the way, delayed the hour, and hoped that the king would forgive her sins."

I don't know what kind of expression and mood is hidden under Ying Zheng's cold and resolute face, I avoided asking him about the purpose of coming to me, and first picked a superficial topic to talk about.

Ying Zheng sat on a stone chair in the courtyard, and there was a chess game on the stone table in front of him, and he had been staring at the chess game since I came in, and he had not moved.

After I finished speaking, Yingzheng didn't move, nor did he answer, he didn't speak, and I had to stand silently.

After a long time, I still didn't see Ying Zheng make any moves, so I was curious, and raised my eyebrows slightly to look at the chess game that made Ying Zheng puzzled.

Judging from the situation of this chess game, both sides should be engaged in the fierce and tearing moves in the process of the game, and only the mentality of decisive and urgent attack can make such a lose-lose result, so that both sides must be cautious and struggling.

The tragic endgame makes people feel suspicious, the calm and immobile Yingzheng and the silence that makes people calm down, this chess game display area, except for the autumn wind of Xiao Suo, seems to be frozen in the same silence for a while.

If Lin Jixiang is arrested, Ying Zheng won't be spying on me to wait for the confession of Lin Jixiang who was tortured in prison, right? This thought flashed through my mind for no reason, and I immediately sweated profusely.

"King Qiqi, the slave concubine dared to say that the situation in the bureau seemed to be a draw, no matter which side blocked the other party's way, it was a self-defeating end, but in the eyes of the slave concubine, there was actually another mystery.

If the opponent goes first, it is absolutely undesirable to move forward in the usual way, and if the game continues, it will only kill the enemy by killing 1,000 and losing 800, so that both sides will not be able to exert their strength freely; The king goes first, and so it is. ”
