Volume 006: How many cuts are there?
Nangong Li's study is generally easy for no one to enter, even if she arrives in this room, she can't go in.
Jiang Ci was guarding outside the door, and when he saw Jiu Pei coming over with the maid, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Aunt Jiu."
"Lord Jiang, is the prince inside?"
"Yes, but the prince is changing clothes, please wait a while."
"Okay."
Before coming to this study, Jiu Pei had already restrained the viciousness hidden in his eyes very well, pretended to be docile, and stood aside obediently.
But her brain was soaked with poisonous juice, and she thought that she would add oil and vinegar later, saying how arrogant the princess was after she went to the ceremony, and how she poked her sore spots.
She wants to let this little princess who doesn't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth have no place in this palace.
In fact, she didn't need to describe it, before she met Nangong Li, someone had already told Nangong Li everything that happened in the Fengluan Palace.
It didn't take a quarter of an hour for the candle flame in the study to go out.
The whole room was plunged into darkness for an instant, and with a creak, the man who had changed his cloak walked out slowly.
"Lord Wang, are you out?"
As he spoke, Jiu Pei took several steps forward, about to reach out to grab his arm, but when he came into contact with the warning gaze under the mask, Shengsheng stopped his movements.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing. It's just that tonight is the great joy of the prince and the princess, and I have already been to the Fengluan Palace to see my sister. ”
Walk side by side with him on the stairs, though not even the corners of his clothes have been touched.
But a sense of pride rose from the bottom of her heart.
"Did she bully you?"
This sentence was very natural, and Jiu Pei was very happy when he heard it.
"Sister Princess, she didn't bully me."
Although he said so, there was a sense of grievance and pity in his tone.
Jiu Pei has been following him for a long time, and he can naturally see the grievances behind her.
"How did I not bully you, this king saw that your eyes were red."
As if poked into the soft place of her heart, she quickly wiped the non-existent tears with a handkerchief.
Then he motioned to Guocui with his eyes to speak.
"Lord Wang, you don't know, our Aunt Jiu went to ask the princess for peace, but the princess didn't know what to do, and she slandered our Aunt Jiu with bad words."
"Huh? How did she slander Aunt Jiu? ”
Nangong Li's tone was very casual, and he didn't care much about this matter.
But he also knew that just after a short period of contact with that Mu Xue, he said that the person had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and he really didn't wronged her.
It is a master who cannot suffer any loss in his words.
"Our aunt kindly showed the princess her face, saying that she was a rich and noble lord, but the princess spoke ill of us Aunt Jiu, saying that our Aunt Jiu should look at her face more. Isn't this a blatant sign that our aunt's face has been ruined? ”
Na Guocui kept her head down, just caring about these things, and didn't notice Nangong Li's face.
But Jiu Pei stood beside him, and saw that his eyes were angry, and the corners of his lips were hooked into a triumphant smile.
"Did she really say that?"
As he asked, he turned his gaze to Jiu Pei's body.
Jiu Pei sobbed, nodded pitifully, and said, "Sister Princess did say so." ”
"Oh, what a big boldness, she said that this king doesn't care, but she can't poke your heart."
"Lord, Sister Princess, she must have been unintentional, she must have been punished by you, she is angry, don't punish her."
Oh, a good one to retreat as advance.
said that the prince should not punish her, but in fact, he was reminding Nangong Li that he must punish that little slut well.
"Jiang Ci, go to Fengluan Hall and give an order, let that guy kneel for another hour."
"What are the charges?"
"Offended Aunt Jiu."
Nangong Li's tone was as indifferent as ice, which was even more chilling than the cold north wind in this courtyard.
"Yes, then the subordinate will go and spread the word."
Jiang Ci was about to turn around and leave.
Jiu Pei over there sobbed again, crying endlessly aggrieved.
Nangong Li's eyes did not change at all, and he continued to command while playing with the jade wrench finger in his hand.
"When you're done kneeling, take her and slash her in the face."
Hearing this, Jiu Pei stopped crying.
Jiang Ci kept bowing, and surprise flashed in his eyes when he heard the words.
"Yes, my subordinates will go."
Walking on the way to Fengluan Palace, Jiang Ci's heart was actually not very comfortable.
Looking through the archway, I saw that the princess was still stubbornly kneeling there.
The man was thin and stubborn, kneeling there stubbornly, with a rather proud air.
The two things that the prince commanded, he suddenly didn't know how to say it.
"Princess, the hour has come, get up quickly."
Mu Xue only felt that her two knees were about to be unconscious, especially her left knee.
It was swollen and itchy, and the pain in her heart was pulling her limbs, and she couldn't move at all.
This leg has been delayed for so long without treatment.
She thought that even with the best medicine, she would not be able to recover as before.
She couldn't get up in pain, so Fei Qi wanted to help, but with a casual pull, Mu Xue bared her mouth and fangs in pain.
"Hmm, it hurts, don't move me."
Mu Xue struggled, climbing Fei Qi's arm to get up.
Jiang Ci walked to her side, still with the same businesslike and indifferent face.
"Princess, you don't have to get up."
Mu Xue bit her lip and raised her head to ask him with her eyes.
"The prince said, saying that you offended Aunt Jiu and will punish you for an extra hour."
When Fei Qi heard this, he immediately retorted: "What are you talking about, where did our princess offend Aunt Jiu, it is clear that Aunt Jiu first cursed our princess to die early." ”
is a good girl, but eighty percent is going to be affected by herself again.
Jiang Ci didn't take Fei Qi's words seriously at all.
In this palace, everyone knows that the prince is partial to Jiupei.
Even if it was really Jiu Pei who said something first, the princess was also on her knees at this hour.
"This is also what the prince meant, and please obey the princess."
"What do you mean... This extra hour... Is it for that Jiupei to kneel? ”
Mu Xue's tone was even weaker than before, and there was great pain in this weakness, and a sentence was divided into several paragraphs before she finished speaking.
"Yes."
"Heh, that Jiupei, what kind of thing is Jiupei, kneel for her? If she dies soon, I'll give her a ride on my knees. ”
There was endless sarcasm in her tone, although her whole person looked extremely embarrassed.
But the stubborn spirit on her body made Jiang Ci's eyes light up.
"This concubine offended the prince, and he asked me to kneel, and I knelt. But Jiu Pei is just an aunt, how can there be a reason for the princess to kneel to her. ”
Enduring the pain of piercing her heart and bones, Mu Xue's whole body almost pressed against Fei Qi's body, and she barely got up.
"The princess's words are also reasonable, but the prince also ordered another thing."
"Say it all at once, don't be so verbose. This concubine is still waiting for the medicine. ”
It's time to go up the steps, Mu Xue can't lift her feet at all, and her forehead is covered with sweat.
She was wrong.
She had said that anywhere was better than the dilapidated yard.
It's good to find that broken yard now.
At least she won't let herself hurt like this, and the pain is so painful that she hates to saw her leg.
"The prince said, saying that the subordinate took the princess and cut a few knives on your face."
A very simple order, Jiang Ci was stunned for a long time before he finished speaking.
Mu Xue couldn't stand up straight, and stood under the steps in a strange posture at the moment, completely stunned when she heard the words.
"What did you say?"
She looked at Jiang Ci, who had an obscure face, with a suspicious gaze, and asked her incredulously.
"That's exactly what the prince ordered."
When Fei Qi heard this, his face was full of righteous indignation: "It must be that Aunt Jiu who cried and cried in front of the prince." ”
"I'll just say that the food in your palace is poisonous, that Jiupei's heart and intestines are poisoned, such a bad-hearted woman, your prince is still a treasure."
This sentence told the entire palace, from the prince to the servants.
But the most important thing is to say vaguely that the prince does not distinguish between right and wrong, and does not know the truth.
"Princess, you ask the slave maid to apologize to Aunt Najiu, so that the prince can take back his life."
While speaking, Fei Qi let go of the hand holding Mu Xue's body, and then the girl was about to run.
"You are not allowed to go."
Mu Xue's command was weak, and the hour of kneeling, coupled with the injuries on his body, was already top-heavy, swaying, and unsteady on his feet.
"Princess, no, Aunt Jiu is narrow-minded, if you don't go, she will definitely not let you go."
"If you don't let it go, you won't let it go."
Mu Xue sneered, suddenly looked at Jiang Ci with extremely sharp eyes, and gritted her teeth: "Go and ask him, how many knives do you want?" ”
Jiang Ci was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Mu Xue meant.
"What do you mean, Princess?"
"Go and ask your prince, how many knives do you want to cut on my face, which part, how long, how deep, and what is the thickness, ask more carefully, clearly, if you don't do it at that time, the concubine will come by herself."
After saying this series of words, Fei Qi and all the servants waiting in this Fengluan Hall gasped.
Fei Qi hurriedly knelt beside Mu Xue: "Princess, you can't say such negative words." ”
Jiang Ci also looked at Mu Xue with the same gaze as if he was looking at a monster.
Mu Xue also looked back at him, with endless firmness in her eyes.
Quite barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes.
Mu Xue had a knee injury and couldn't even stand steadily.
There was also a wound on the face, and the side that was beaten was already swollen.
The cold wind blew for another hour, and he had already been tossed and lost his spirit, and he couldn't even support the wedding dress on his body, his shoulders drooped, and he was still wearing the dark coat before the prince.
Looking at it, she is obviously in a mess.
But I don't know why, Jiang Ci seems to have a feeling of being above everyone when she looks at her.
"Go ask !!"
Gritting her teeth, it seemed that these two words had exhausted all the strength of her body.
Jiang Ci had an illusion of surrender in his heart, and then he denied himself in his heart.
But he bowed and said, "Yes, my subordinates will go." ”
Jiang Ci came to visit, but he didn't complete any of the two instructions given by the prince.
