489: There is no danger
Princess Qinghe's Mansion is really magnificent, and Nalan Jinxiu feels that compared to this, Qu Qingjia's Mansion is simply the difference between the royal family and the grass people.
She remembered that Daning used to have a prince's mansion, which was also like this, but later she was suspicious of the saint and was beheaded all over the house. People who have been officials for a long time know that Taoguang is obscure, and it is rare to be as flamboyant as Princess Qinghe.
"The imperial sister used her daughter on the battlefield back then, and her military achievements were outstanding, which was given to her by the emperor. ”
Nalan Jinxiu was a little more curious about her titular mother. She followed Qu Qingjia and sat in the living room waiting for the princess. After a cup of tea, Qu Lianbing came slowly.
She has passed the age of standing, but she does not see old age all over her body, her skin is still fair and delicate, her body is slender, and she feels beautiful and majestic. She glanced at Nalan Jinxiu and said lightly: "It's really strange that you are willing to bring a woman here." ”
This glance made Nalan Jinxiu nervous, she had never seen such aggressive eyes. If the third brother's eyes are insightful, this is more oppression.
Qu Qingjia replied with a smile: "The newly accepted little apprentice, come and show the imperial sister." ”
"Your own apprentice, let me see what to do?" Qu Lianbing said not politely at all.
"Naturally it has something to do with you, you see if her appearance is still upright, can she get into your eyes, if you think it's okay, then in the future, you can find me a woman according to her standard! ”
Qu Qingjia's words amused Qu Lianbing, and she shook her head helplessly: "You are not a family at such an old age, and my father is naturally anxious." ”
"Aren't you still married, sister?"
"How can you compare with me, I am not a man, and I have no responsibility to open up for the royal family. ”
"After death, people will become a handful of white bones, and eventually melt into the loess, so what does it matter to future generations. Qu Qingjia drank another cup of tea and asked casually: "The imperial sister's tea is really good tea, and it was rewarded by my father!"
"Well, the day before yesterday, I entered the palace to face the saint, and my father happened to have good tea, so he rewarded me with some. ”
"Sure enough, my father still loves you. ”
Qu Lianbing was still like that, she didn't bother to say a word, she only rubbed her forehead tiredly. It looked like she hadn't slept well, or maybe she was overthinking.
"Since she is your new apprentice, presumably her medical skills are not bad, and I am not feeling well now, so it is better to let her show me. ”
Who Qu Lianbing is, Qu Qingjia knows best. If it weren't for her murderous heart, she would have been made a marquis and worshiped by the prime minister, how could she still be detained in this small princess's mansion? You must know that the women of Nanchu can also be officials.
If she let her little disciple face her alone, it is estimated that she will not even have the scum left to eat. Qu Qingjia still smiled and said: "She has only just started, and her medical skills are still lacking, and she is not enough to diagnose people independently, so it is better to let me take a look!"
"I don't have a problem with this, it's just that I have an itch on my back and some rashes. Qu Lianbing's meaning was already very clear, there was a rash on her back, and Qu Qingjia was inconvenient to look at.
Qu Qingjia was about to continue refusing, but Nalan Jinxiu secretly pulled his sleeve. The two of them didn't make much progress against her, and if she faced Qu Lianbing alone, then he would have a chance to survey the terrain.
"Then you can come with me!" Qu Lianbing stood up from the main seat, and she walked slowly, her posture fluttering.
Nalan Jinxiu carried her skirt and followed behind her, but felt that it was difficult to keep up with her. It seems that she is walking very slowly, why can't she catch up at a trot?
At the bend of the corridor, Qu Lianbing suddenly disappeared. Nalan Jinxiu looked left and right and found that there was no one here. She was a little nervous, but quickly returned to normal.
There are no bright places, and there must be a lot of dark places. She simply didn't chase after her, so she slowed down and walked forward, shouting in a low voice: "Eldest princess." "It looked like he was looking for someone.
Qu Lianbing was indeed in the dark, and as soon as this girl entered the princess's mansion, she didn't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at her. She was really curious about her, if it was an ordinary person, it would never be possible to get Qu Qingjia's favor. If she is not an ordinary person, then what is her identity?
Nalan Jinxiu walked along this corridor, and at the end was a blue brick house. The house was very poorly decorated, and it did not fit in with the luxury of the princess's mansion. She stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Is there anyone?"
No one answered her, so she stood in front of the door and looked around, hoping to see my figure to show her way. As a result, the person did not find it, but heard a terrible shout.
It was a man's voice, and it sounded extremely painful. Everyone knows that Princess Qinghe is unmarried, so all the miscellaneous people in the house are women, and there are no men.
Who was the voice just now? Could it be my brother? When Nalan Jinxiu was hesitating, a terrible shout appeared again, and this time she heard it clearly, it was indeed Xu Jince's voice, and it came from the opposite room.
She pushed open the door and found the room empty and still empty. She didn't know what was wrong with her, and from the moment she entered this room, she had a creepy feeling.
Then there was a terrible scream, one after another, and the sound seemed to be in her ears. Nalan Jinxiu blocked her ears with her hands and shouted, "Who is pretending to be a ghost!"
As she shouted, the screaming stopped abruptly, but the wall suddenly moved, and it looked like a secret door had opened.
Nalan Jinxiu stared at the door and found that it was just a dark hole, and there was nothing in it that could not be seen at all. She held her breath and had a feeling in her heart that something would come out of the doorway in a moment.
Her idea was quickly verified, and a woman dressed in black walked out of the door. Her whole life was extremely cold, and her face was abnormally white, and when she walked over step by step, it would make people feel frightened.
What made her scalp tingle was that she was holding an iron chain in her left hand, and the end of the chain seemed to be tied to something, and she was being dragged to the ground with a rustling sound.
The woman in black got closer and closer, waiting for her to walk out the door. Nalan Jinxiu also completely saw what she was dragging clearly, it looked like a person, and the body that had been tortured was incomplete, so the gender couldn't be seen for a while.
"Who let you in?" the voice of the woman in black, like her people, gave people a feeling of extreme coldness.
"I didn't mean to, I just got lost. ”
The woman in black narrowed her eyes, then opened them again, and Nalan Jinxiu found that her pupils were actually blue. It was at this glance that her spirit was not under her control.
She felt as if she had entered a dark room, with no light around her, and she was so oppressive that she couldn't breathe. She kept looking for a way out, but the darkness seemed to be endless......
Qu Lianbing looked at the unconscious Nalan Jinxiu, and still said in a somewhat cold voice: "Ask her who she is, where she came from, and what is the purpose of coming here." ”
"Nalan Jinxiu, Jinling people's clan, looking for relatives. ”
"Who are you looking for?"
"Brother. ”
Qu Lianbing's expression became dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Princess, what to do?"
"Of course, if you go back, a big living person disappeared in the princess's mansion, and King Qing will not give up. ”
"Didn't the princess doubt her identity?
"Since it's not the person I'm looking for, it's useless to ask. They can't turn over the flowers in the princess's mansion, so let them go. Qu Lianbing's expression had returned to normal, but the people around her could find that the princess was not in a good mood.
When Nalan Jinxiu woke up again, she had already returned to King Qing's Mansion, and Qu Qingjia was giving her needles. She felt a pain in her head, like something was about to explode.
"You bear with it, if you are in the soul technique, it will hurt a little to dredge the meridians. ”
Nalan Jinxiu's panting voice became rougher, she endured the tumbling in her stomach, and asked in a low voice, "How did I come back?"
"Do you remember what happened?"
"I don't remember, I think I got lost, but I don't remember what happened after that. ”
Qu Qingjia's expression was quite calm, and her eyes were very gentle when she looked at her: "Don't worry, don't go too deep, you can remember it soon." ”
After acupuncture, Nalan Jinxiu's headache symptoms were reduced, but she still felt dizzy. Gradually, she remembered something, and she said it all.
"The princess's mansion looks resplendent on the surface, but there are more dirty things in the dark. It was a private torture hall set up by the lord of the country, which was not a secret among the officials of Southern Chu. So there is nothing you can't understand about the sounds you hear and the sights you see. ”
"What's the catch?"
"Yes. Qu Qingjia took out a handmade map and pointed to the places marked in red on it: "If Xu Jince is in the princess's mansion, it will be these places." ”
Nalan Jinxiu took it over and took a closer look, and found that these places were extremely secret places, and one of them turned out to be the princess's bedroom.
"Where did you get this map?"
"The guard you brought with you did it. ”
"Mu Li also went today?" Nalan Jinxiu remembered that without him, and remembered that Qu Qingjia did have a little guy by his side, could it be that Mu Li?
"Don't think about it, it's him. ”
"How did you do that?" Nalan Jinxiu also glanced at the little guy at that time, as if his height didn't match Mu Li's.
"Don't ask, we naturally have our own methods. ”
"You just said I had a soul dementor?"
"Yes. ”
"What is that, and why is it being used on me?"
Qu Qingjia sighed: "Sister Huang, she is suspicious of you and wants to find out your true identity." It's just that you are not Xu Jinsheng, so she returned disappointed. Say that you told your true identity today, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back. ”
Nalan Jinxiu let out a sigh of relief and touched his chest again, this time it was finally in danger......
