Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Treachery in the Long Alley
On the other side, Bai Jiuke and the others have been waiting in Ji Jia's room for a long time, after all, no matter what, this imperial doctor order is a person in the palace, if he is really convicted of murder, it will naturally be handed over to the people in the palace to deal with, so people will call the spirit rhino who has just returned to the palace.
It's just that it's almost an hour, but there is still no result, Lingxi has not finished his homework, if his mother asks about it, he can't say anything, maybe tomorrow's homework will be doubled.
In addition, no matter what she does, her patience is not good, she hates that others make her wait like this, if it is okay for a while, but when the time comes, she will become impatient.
"Hey, didn't you say that you have a way to get the murderer to show himself? Why, how long has it been? Is it possible, your solution is to let the palace and the princess of Jin wait here with you? ”
"Or does this murderer know that you are dead now, and he still wants to see if you are dead?"
"I see you, you are so bold that you want to use this to entertain the palace and the princess of Jin?"
Such a sharp scolding made Ji Jia startled, and the cup on the tray in her hand fell directly to the ground and shattered into several pieces because she shook it.
The person immediately knelt down, but coincidentally, he knelt directly on a piece of glass, and the pain of inserting it into her knee made her take a cold breath, and her clothes were instantly stained with a layer of redness.
"Please Your Royal Highness, the princess and mother forgive the sin, the slave and maid don't dare."
"The slave really has a way to make himself exposed, and now he hasn't made any moves, which doesn't mean he won't take action."
"I know that he has always wanted me to die, in that case, he must come at night to see if I was killed by him, and please, Niangniang, and Her Royal Highness the Princess can give the slave a little time, the slave's guess will definitely not be wrong."
Seeing that they didn't answer, Ji Jia immediately added, "Otherwise, it's tonight." ”
"Tonight, please also ask Her Royal Highness the Lady and the Princess to be in the slave's room for the time being, and give the slave and maid a night's time, if he hasn't come over tonight, the slave and maid...... The slave is willing to accept any punishment. ”
"Please, the mother and the princess give the slave maid this time."
"I think there's something she said, Lingxi, why don't we stay here for a while and see if he really comes?"
"In case, if he does come, we can catch him directly, what do you think?" Bai Baike glanced at her and agreed.
"Since you have already said this, then what else can I say, then I will look at your face and give her this opportunity!"
"If we really find out that she is playing with us, it will not be too late to punish her."
Ji Jia, who was still kneeling on the ground, said with a proud face: "What are you still kneeling there doing, get up!" ”
"Yes, slave and maidservant, Her Royal Highness Princess Xie, Xie Niangniang!"
Ji Jia kowtowed before standing up and successfully left them behind, which was also a relief to herself.
I guess the plan over there should have been almost underway, right?
Lingxi looked at Bai Baike, who was still sitting upright on the side, looking unfazed, and his heart was still restless.
Although he has promised them to stay here, he is really not used to letting himself wait quietly here.
She was still extremely anxious, she was really not used to sitting quietly like this, and couldn't help but walk around the whole room, and even kicked the furnishings in the room to relieve her anxiety.
Bai Baike knew her character very well, so naturally he wouldn't blame her, but he shook his head helplessly, supported his head with his hands, and closed his eyes half-chaired.
I have a hunch that tonight is not destined to be a peaceful night, so take advantage of the fact that there is nothing to do now, and have a good rest.
It's better to calm down and sort out all the things that have happened in the past few days.
The night was hazy, and although the palace was brightly lit, even so, there were still many places that were still shrouded in darkness and slept silently.
Weiyang Palace is located in the easternmost part of the palace, where all the female officials live in the palace, plus if you want to come to this Weiyang Palace, you must pass through a long alley, this long alley is narrow and long, and at night, it is extremely dark without lanterns, and there is no end in sight.
The red side doors of the palaces on both sides of the long alley are half-hidden and half-hidden at night, and the lanterns are like monsters with their mouths open.
Not to mention that there are rules in the palace that they are not allowed to walk around the palace at will after the end of the day, and they are reluctant to walk around in this long alley that looks a little infiltrating at night.
What's more, today, it is rumored in the palace that the serial killer who shocked the capital may have infiltrated the palace, and no one dares to go out after dark.
The wind blew gently, and the wooden sign hanging on the red iron door slapped on the door, making a sound of "clang, clang", which sounded particularly infiltrating.
A girl was standing at the door of a red iron door, stretching out her hand, hesitating whether to knock on the door, when the breeze blew, and her coiled hair was slightly messy.
As if she had made up her mind, she reached out and knocked on it a few times.
This person is none other than Director Yu of the Sleroom.
She brushed her blown hair with her hand, clenched her cold red hand into a fist, and put it to her mouth to breathe.
The winter nights were already cold, and she didn't wear much, only a red Luo skirt and a red cape couldn't help her block the cold of the night.
The girl looked around nervously, as if she was a little afraid of being seen.
Seeing that the people inside did not respond, she patted a few times impatiently, but after waiting for a while, no one answered.
Director Yu stepped forward to look inside through the crack in the door, only to see that the courtyard inside was pitch black, and it didn't look like a human being.
It's no wonder why no one came to open the door after knocking for so long.
But it's a little strange that since she asked herself to come over, why is there no one now, isn't she playing tricks on herself?
Thinking of this, she stretched out her hand and slammed it on the door with some anger, but in this way, she heard the door "babble" and opened directly.
A gust of wind blew, and the door inside was opened, and at the same time, some yellow paper was blown out of the room, which looked somewhat similar to a dead coin.
With the wind fluttering in the yard, no matter how you look at it, it feels a little seeping.
Even if the person he is looking for is not here, of course there is no need for him to continue to wait here, Director Yu turned around and was about to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he heard the sound of wind chimes behind him, and at this moment, his skirt was also pulled......
