Chapter 166: The Evil Empress (26)
Vinola said, "Wait a minute." ”
She closed the door, snatched the sharpest letter opener from Victoria's dresser, put it in her arms, put down the broom, and opened the door with a normal face: "Let's go." ”
"Where are my brother and my mother?" Venola walked calmly in front, her eyes glancing at her feet, looking at the shadow of the guard behind her.
The guard was so preoccupied with Vinora that he didn't hear what she was saying.
"What did you say?"
Suddenly Venora pulled out the dagger in her arms and stabbed at the guards.
The guard was unsuspectingly stabbed in the abdomen, and the dagger he had been holding in his hand fell to the ground.
For no other reason, Zhao Jiaqi used her brother and her mother to threaten her that if she did not assassinate the princess as she said, her relatives would die without a place to live.
At that time, Vinola clearly remembered that the maid beside Zhao Jiaqi had revealed that she had locked her younger siblings in the secret room of the queen's bedroom.
She struggled to find the secret room, and quietly went to see it, and her mother and brother were indeed inside, but they were in a bad state.
So she dressed up day and day long, and in the middle of the night she went to bring them water and food.
Today's food has just been delivered, how can it be so fast, people arrived at the gate of the palace.
Venola ran wildly towards the Chamber of Secrets with a dagger in hand, and the Empress and the people around her apparently didn't know that Venora already knew where the Chamber of Secrets was, so it was not heavily guarded.
Vinola opened the door to the chamber and rushed in, only to be stunned by what she saw.
The water and food she had just brought had not yet been touched, but her mother and brother were covered in blood and had fallen to the ground.
Vinola couldn't believe her eyes, she stepped forward and picked up her brother's body, shaking it constantly: "Brother, brother, wake up soon, my sister is here to take you out, we can go out soon!" ”
"Mother, wake up! I just saw you all right, why now-"
Grief-stricken, Venora fell on her mother's corpse and wept.
But the crisis didn't make her sad for long.
The voice of a maid was heard at the entrance to the chamber, and Venola clenched the dagger in her hand and hid it in a dark corner.
Zhao Jiaqi's maid scolded the man in front of her as she walked: "Why did you mess things up again?" Do you know how long I begged Her Highness before she was willing to give you this opportunity? Don't say it, hurry up and look everywhere in the palace, she can't run far alone. ”
After saying that, he walked into the secret room alone.
After the maid entered the secret room, she looked at the corpses of Vinola's brother and mother on the ground and laughed: "Do you really think that Your Highness will let you go, knowing so many things, you can only get out of the palace alive to have a ghost!" ”
Venola, who was in the shadows, suddenly attacked, jumped out and rode on top of the maid, put a knife against her neck and said, "Say what you just said. ”
The maid looked incredulous: "Why are you here!" How did you find out here? ”
"It's not thanks to your mouth, otherwise I wouldn't have known there was a secret room here! You didn't kill my mother and brother! The more Vinola spoke, the more agitated she became, and the hand holding the dagger harder.
A red blood stain appeared on the maid's neck, and she hurriedly begged for mercy: "It's not me, it's the queen who ordered the guards to kill them, I just came here to clean up the mess, don't kill me, I'll tell you how to get out of the palace uh-"
Without waiting for the maid to finish speaking, Venola ended her life with the dagger in her hand, and looking at the maid's unwilling eyes, she said, "It's not you, you're also an accomplice!" Do you think I'll still believe your nonsense, you just want to trick me into going out and telling the queen that I will go to hell to atone for my mother and brother! ”
The sound of a blade breaking through flesh was particularly harsh in the silence of the chamber.
Vinora stood up, her clean clothes covered in blood, not knowing if it belonged to her relatives or her maids.
Unable to care about the embarrassment, Vinola cut off a strand of hair from her mother and brother's heads, put it in her arms, and hurried away.
Vinola wanted to run out of the city, to find Twelve, to tell her everything that had happened in the palace.
But the queen's pursuers soon caught up with Vinola, and she had no choice but to climb the city wall and run desperately in the direction of the city gate.
The city gate was in front of her, and Venola's eyes were full of joy.
But just as her hand was about to touch the ring on the door, Vinora felt a force in her chest stop her, and when she looked down, she saw a sword glowing with cold light, filled with blood, piercing through her body, and the tip of the sword burst out of her chest.
She couldn't believe it, and reached out to touch the blade of the sword to confirm whether what she saw was real, and at that moment, the guard with the sword behind her pulled the sword out of Vinola's body, and she fell to the ground.
The strong Venola felt no pain at all, she clutched her chest, felt the warm blood flow from the open hole, and dragged her body with her other hand towards the edge of the tower.
The guards who were chasing her shook off the blood on their swords, and walked towards Vinola with a smug face: "If I take your head to ask the queen for a reward, do you think I can ask an earl to do it?" ”
After saying that, he lifted Vinola's chin as if admiring a work of art, looked at her covered in blood and said, "You said that you are also good-looking, but it is a pity to offend the queen." ”
At that moment, Vinola pulled out the dagger from her bosom and plunged it neatly into the guard's chest, and the guard fell to the ground, and the voice of the pursuer was close at hand.
In desperation, Vinola leaped into the turbulent moat.
The pursuers who arrived later looked at the corpses on the ground, and looked into the moat for a while following the blood stains of Vinola, and the pursuers at the head said: "It seems that she jumped into the river, go back, even if we don't kill her, she will be more than lucky." ”
When the pursuers were chasing and killing Vinola, Zhao Jiaqi was not idle.
She went to Kyle's study in thin clothes, and at this moment Kyle was reading at night, and the breeze outside the window blew in, and he coughed twice from time to time.
Zhao Jiaqi walked over intimately and closed the window, Kyle raised his head when he heard the movement, and saw that it was her who said with a smile on his face: "It's so late, why are you here?" ”
Zhao Jiaqi took off a cloak from the hanger and put it on Kyle's shoulder and said, "I can't sleep at night, come and see you, don't sit on the tuyere and read a book when it's cold at night." ”
Kyle nodded his head to show that he understood, and asked, "Why can't you sleep?" Is the wound painful again? After speaking, he comfortingly touched the location of Zhao Jiaqi's injury.
Zhao Jiaqi shook his head tiredly, sat beside him, leaned on his knees and said, "No, I just suddenly felt very tired." ”
