Chapter 360: A slap in the face
While fighting for everyone's trust, Snow Kite suddenly slammed his head on the ground: "I'm sorry, Snow Kite knows that all this is Snow Kite's fault." It's the snow kite that deserves to die, but can I ask you to be kind enough to take the snow kite? To be honest, the snow kite is not far away this time, and it is really desperate to escape from Hsinchu Village...... As long as you can let me stay, let me be a cow and a horse, and the snow kite will admit it......"
"Be a cow and a horse?" Ji Range was slightly stunned for a moment, and suddenly wanted to say something, when he heard Ying Ning say on the side: "Since I am a friend of the concubine, I can not mind......" Ying Ning was saying, but who would have expected that she didn't even look at her, her eyes turned straight to Ji Range, and her head slammed on the ground and said, "I hope the princess will be perfect!" ”
This made Ying Ning lose face in front of everyone, and he hated in his heart, although he still pretended to smile casually, but the hatred in his heart was extremely obvious.
Ji Range was slightly stunned, flattened her mouth, originally she thought that this matter would pass like this, but unexpectedly, Snow Kite took the initiative to come to the door.
And whether she was an enemy or a friend, Ji Range couldn't help but raise her eyes and look around, and her eyes fell on the snow kite again.
She coughed softly and said to Snow Kite, "This is not the place to talk, go inside us." ”
As she spoke, she suddenly took a few steps forward and helped the snow kite kneeling on the ground to her feet, and then like a sister, she hugged the snow kite and walked inside, which made the snow kite, who was originally desperate, ecstatic for a while.
Originally, she thought that she had framed Ma Qiyan, and if Princess Gulun knew, she would definitely not let her go as easily as she did now.
However, she never expected that Ji Range would ignore her, in short, the expression on Xue Yinge's face was stunned, and when she was walking towards the princess's mansion with Ji Range, her eyes suddenly saw Qi Yan's face clearly, especially when he was close to Ji Range, there was an obvious trace of worry on his face, and suddenly turned into a trace of deep anger.
Snow Kite was stunned, such a face, there must be a lot of things to say to her, and sure enough, when she was passing by him, Qi Yan suddenly warned her viciously in Snow Kite's ear: "You woman, no matter what your purpose is." In short, if you dare to hurt the princess in the same way that you hurt me, then you just wait to give it a try! ”
The snow kite was stunned again, and she stumbled and almost tripped over the huge stone next to the door, and at this time, Ji Ran Ge happened to be a little distracted, and when she turned back, she saw that the snow kite was almost tripped, which made her come back to her senses and help the snow kite up.
This made Snow Kite's heart full of gratitude, and she pursed her thin lips, feeling even more guilty and self-blaming.
When he came to the main hall, Ji Range sat on a mahogany chair in front of him, with a square table next to it, Qiyan sat on the other side of the table, and Snow Kite was standing in the direction of due south, facing Ji Range and Qiyan.
After some interrogation, Ji Range's face was full of surprise: "You mean, your father and brother have all left, it's been three years, you have no relatives, and your family is surrounded by walls, so what do you usually rely on for a living?" ”
"Back to the princess, she mainly relies on doing some handmade sewing to supply the neighbors in order to earn some necessities for life...... Snow Kite said truthfully.
Ji Range nodded, and asked again, "What about the night of the incident?" ”
"An unknown person gave me a piece of silver and told me about the ...... of the horse."
"An unknown person?" When Ji Range was stunned, Qi Yan suddenly pointed at the snow kite and scolded, just now in front of the crowd on the street, he was still a little worried, but now that he is in the princess's mansion, he has no scruples.
"Nonsense, snow kite! I jumped into the river that day, and it was completely accidental, and there was absolutely no way that anyone would know about me. How could someone give you money to do such a thing? ”
Qi Yan's words made Ji Range's gaze turn for a while, and then pondered for a moment, and was about to say something, but unexpectedly, Snow Kite took the first step, cleared his throat, and added: "Horse, unless someone is at the scene of the crime at the time, and you know your temperament well." So you didn't pay attention at the time, and swam to Hsinchu Village downstream, and then found the snow kite......"
Ji Range was on the side, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "According to what you mean, then can you see the appearance of that person clearly?" ”
She was a little confused, but Snow Kite pursed her thin lips, shook her head and sighed: "That person's appearance is not very clear. But faintly looked at the lower right corner of his face, and there was a mole on the lower right corner of his chin. ”
Qi Yan was even more displeased, because he thought about it and thought that there was no such person in his memory.
Ji Range raised her eyes, as if she had seen through Ji Range's thoughts, she squinted her eyes slightly and said, "Donkey, in this way, maybe what Xue Kite said, I'm afraid it's the local villagers?" ”
Because someone saw the colt, they swam downstream in advance, in order to take the opportunity to get a chance to soar together with the snow kite.
This is a win-win cooperation, Ji Range said while thinking in his heart, although Qiyan on the side had not heard of any "win-win", but Ji Range's words made Qiyan's eyes flow unconsciously quickly, and he thought for a while and said: "If it is according to what the princess said, it seems to make some sense......
"What's wrong? Did you meet anyone on the way here? Ji Range pursed his thin lips and said.
"Who?" Although Qi Yan remembered that he and Wei Siyuan rushed from the imperial capital of Ji Kingdom to Wei Siyuan's house along the way, he vaguely seemed to have met several old acquaintances of Ji Kingdom, and there were several officials in Ji Kingdom, but he didn't remember who would do such a thing.
Just when Qi Yan was at a loss and noncommittal, Xue Kite knelt on the ground and continued to beg Ji Range: "Please princess, accept me, my father and brother were killed, I want to avenge them, but now they have been reduced to the point where there is no place to rest, in short, all this please......"
Ji Range thought about it for a while, and felt that although Snow Kite had done bad things, her life experience was very pitiful, and when she was about to nod, Qiyan on the side suddenly grabbed her sleeve.
Ji Range was a little stunned, and came back to her senses, but saw Qi Yan suddenly whisper in her ear: "Princess Wait, this matter is strange, the intention of the snow kite, whether it is friend or foe, not to mention that it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, in my opinion, we can't leave her in a hurry now!" Otherwise......"
Ji Range's delicate thin lips opened lightly, and the corners of her mouth closed one by one. Although she knew that Qi Yan was not a cold-blooded person and had no sympathy for the weak, but now he actually stopped her and took the snow kite in, on the one hand, out of concern for her, and on the other hand, for her love and protection.
"However, I think the snow kite has a point. Now that she has no relatives, I think if it were me and you, I would do the same......" Ji Range smiled slightly, and still looked calm when he spoke, and he didn't have any sense of caution, which made Qi Yan can't help but admire in his heart.
Whether it is Ji Range or Chu Xiaoxiang, his woman has never been simple, and he knows this from the first time Qi Yan met Ji Range.
"Alright then," Qi Yan sighed softly, "don't worry, princess." No matter what happens, you've got me by your side! ”
Ji Range nodded, she snorted in response, suddenly remembered something, and said to Ni Shang on the side: "You take the snow kite girl down, change into a few clean clothes, find a cleaner place to live, and settle her!" ”
Nishang stood aside and nodded, she was originally looking at the snow kite with some vigilance, but when she saw that Ji Ran Ge was willing to agree to take her in, she didn't say anything, so she took the snow kite out, and when she just went out, she suddenly saw the side of the Xiyan Pavilion of Changle Palace, crowded with twenty or thirty palace maids and eunuchs who came to see the excitement.
"What to see, what to see lively? If you have something, you will be busy, and if you have nothing to do, you will rest" Ni Shang glared, the palace maids and eunuchs present looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you, originally only said that the princess welcomed a new friend today, she was holding her in her hand, that person was not Qiao Qian'er, they were all a little curious, and wanted to come and see the excitement.
Unexpectedly, Nishang suddenly walked out, and her scolding made them all nod: "Yes, yes...... Sister Nishang taught me a lesson, "Anyway, it's all gone."
Ni Shang looked at their figures that fled in a hurry, and then looked at the snow kite, but he was thinking in his heart, this Zeng Shike didn't seem to be in it just now, although Ni Sheng didn't know why he paid attention to Zeng Shike, but thinking that he usually likes to hide and watch the lively temperament, today is not like other palace maids and eunuchs, gathered around the door of the main hall of Changle Palace to watch the excitement, but today, where did he go? She was suddenly curious.
Unexpectedly, this Zeng Shike was also mixed in the crowd watching the excitement, but suddenly he felt that someone was behind him halfway, and patted him on the shoulder, Zeng Shike suddenly turned around, and found that the person was no one else, it was the personal maid next to Mrs. Ying Ning - Amber.
"Sister is so ......" Zeng Shike turned his head and was talking, when suddenly Amber took advantage of the excitement when everyone was watching, and whimpered Zeng Shike's mouth with his hand without paying attention, "Don't speak," Amber lowered her voice and made a gesture of booing: "Go, Madame is looking for you, come with me." ”
Zeng Shike knew very well that the lady in this amber mouth would definitely not be the one inside. He nodded, answered a good word, and when he first arrived at Ningxiang Pavilion, he saw Ying Ning sitting inside, but unexpectedly, as soon as Ying Ning raised his hand, he actually gave Zeng Shike a slap.
The corners of Zeng Shike's mouth immediately became a little swollen, looking at Ying Ning, but he didn't even dare to come out, it turned out that this Ying Ning was ignored by the snow kite in front of many people just now, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, seeing Zeng Shike coming, and he happened to be on an errand by Ji Range's side now, Ying Ning was a little angry, and slapped Zeng Shike's face, but his palms hurt.
This made her feel a little remorseful, she knew that now, she should have let others beat him, no need to do it herself, Ying Ning secretly said in her heart, but her eyes were still staring at him fiercely, and the corners of her mouth twitched and shouted: "Zeng Shike, do you know why I beat you?" ”
