The night was as cold as water, Jin Chi'er curled his knees with his hands, and from time to time through the hazy moonlight that appeared diagonally above the left wall outside the prison, looking at the stars faintly penetrating from the outside, and suddenly his heart was heavy.

She seemed to think of her lonely childhood, she was born a child without a father and mother, and she didn't know who her biological parents were and where they were.

When she was six years old, she was found by a palace maid who was kind enough to go out to buy medicinal herbs when she was on the street, adopted and brought to the palace, and later met the queen mother, who would have expected that the queen mother actually asked her to assist the emperor.

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger. Thinking of Ji Zisheng, who talked and laughed with him in the past, now that he has become the person who put her in prison, Jin Chi'er's heart is like rain hitting hail.

It's as if all this is two heavens of ice and fire, or the world is cold and warm. Jin Chi'er was sighing, when she suddenly heard the sound of a large iron chain swaying lightly outside the prison, accompanied by a loud bang, and the thick and heavy stone door was opened from the outside.

A few light footsteps stepped in in the direction where Jin Chi'er was: "Jin Chi'er, Your Majesty has something to summon you." A man in a crimson official uniform, with a long sword at his waist, suddenly spoke, his voice was hoarse.

"Summoning me?" Jin Chi'er was slightly stunned, and when she was about to respond, her eyes probed the official in front of her, although his face did not change, but there was a trace of flutter in his eyes.

Jin Chi'er's thin lips pursed slightly, and suddenly he was a little wary in his heart, so he didn't get up, but continued to squat in the corner of the prison, and said with his hands on his knees: "I'm sorry, please go and report to Your Majesty." Let's just say that it's getting late, Chi'er is a little sleepy, if His Majesty summons him, please tomorrow. ”

The man who looked like a palace guard immediately looked a little nervous, so he said: "I'm afraid this is not appropriate, Your Majesty is summoning you now, there must be something urgent," he was saying, suddenly turned around, took out a jade pendant from his waist, and shook it in front of her, as if he was afraid that Jin Chi'er would not believe it.

Jin Chi'er snatched the jade pendant, and when she held it in the palm of her hand, she found that the jade pendant was pure in texture and faintly shiny, and it was definitely the best Huanglongyu, but she still didn't let go immediately, but said: "This big brother, although you gave me a good jade, when were you in the Qiangong, why did I never see you when I was in the Qiangong?" ”

When the guard heard this, his eyes drooped, and he didn't even raise his head and said, "The girl doesn't know anything, and she has just arrived in the Qiangong not long ago." So, girl, it's reasonable that you don't know me. ”

Jin Chi'er nodded, as if she was convinced of the words in front of her, and she pursed her thin lips lightly: "It sounds like what you said, big brother, it seems to have some truth." In that case, then I will leave with you and go to see Your Majesty. ”

The guard was still a little hesitant, worried about whether Jin Chi'er would believe in him and plan to rob openly, but who would have expected that she would actually agree to go out with him, and there was a complicated smile on the guard's face.

Not long after leaving the prison, Jin Chi'er followed behind the guard, keeping a distance of three steps away, but suddenly saw that the guard had just walked out of the prison, and chose a remote path.

Jin Chi'er followed behind with some doubts, and when she came to the foot of a acacia tree in the palace, she pursed her thin lips, looked around, and said, "Big brother, are we in the wrong place?" She thought to herself, if someone didn't want to frame her, how could they lead her to this place where there was no village and no shop.

The guard's eyes were wandering rapidly, and he suddenly saw that there was no one around, and no one from the palace came to inspect at night, his face suddenly froze, and he said to Jin Chi'er: "Gone to the wrong place?" How is it possible, this is Huangquan Road, the place where I will come to take your life. ”

Although Jin Chi'er was originally a little vigilant, she still didn't expect that the person in front of her who said that he wanted to lead her to see Ji Zisheng turned out that seeing Ji Zisheng was just an excuse, and the real intention was to kill her.

Jin Chi'er was so frightened that she turned around and was about to flee, but at this time, she suddenly tripped over the stone under her feet, although she screamed in pain, but when she looked up, she found that the guard behind her, with a dagger in his hand, was approaching her.

Jin Chi'er didn't care about the pain, and as soon as he turned around, he got up from the ground, relying on the memories of his time in the palace, relying on his intuition, Jin Chi'er thought to himself, he should be behind the place where one of the concubines of the previous emperor lived.

Jin Chi'er thought in her heart, fortunately, this place should not be far from the street of the capital, and the guard behind her who was chasing her, even if he had ill intentions, should not be able to shake his courage and kill people on the street.

So, she ignored the darkness of the night, and fled in the direction of the main street of the capital, originally she heard that there was a side door there, but tonight as if someone was worried that she would escape, the side door was actually locked tightly.

Jin Chi'er was helpless, just as her eyes wandered around, and she found that the guard behind her was not in a hurry, but there was a big tree beside her, which happened to climb outside the palace wall.

Jin Chi'er twisted her eyebrows slightly, ignoring the fact that the big tree was full of thorns, and she didn't care that her hands and feet were a little worn out, so she climbed the tree vigorously, and when she was on the tree, she suddenly hesitated.

One step further, she is about to leave the palace, and when she sees Ji Zisheng again, she doesn't know when, but where is Ji Zisheng now, what are she doing, he understands her current situation, does he know that someone is chasing her? Jin Chi'er was thinking about it repeatedly in her heart, but someone in the palace was chasing her, so it was no longer safe here.

The only way for her to get out of here is to get out of here, although it may not be safe outside the palace, but at least she can stay away from this deceitful place.

Jin Chi'er pursed her thin lips lightly, and moved her feet forward step by step between the branches. The guards who came with him saw that Jin Chi'er actually went up the tree, and looked around, although he could faintly see the firelight, but it did not make him restrain half of his desire to collect the body for her.

"Jin Chi'er, it's time to leave the palace in front. Aren't you afraid of death at all? The guard said coldly.

"I'm afraid," Jin Chi'er said heavily, "but what I'm more afraid of is losing my freedom." ”

As she spoke, Jin Chi'er suddenly opened her arms in the wind like a giant bird, and one jumped over to the other side of the palace wall.

Siren saw that Jin Chi'er had jumped off the palace wall, this wall more than ten meters high, even if he couldn't fall to death, it was estimated that he would be disabled, so he wanted to turn around, but unexpectedly, he heard the shouts of everyone from a distance.

Not to mention, when Ji Zisheng suddenly decided to put down his identity at night and went desperately to visit Jin Chi'er in the prison, he pounced, not only was no one there, but even the door of the prison was open to the outside, and the guards guarding the door were all staggered and lying on the ground.

Presumably, someone must have wanted to get Jin Chi'er, so he injured the guards here and made them faint, but Ji Zisheng didn't know the specific intentions, the only thing he knew was that since Jin Chi'er entered the palace for so long, he had never seen her have any martial arts, or any special strength.

Thinking of this, Jin Chi'er's whereabouts are unknown, life and death are uncertain, and he has no other way than to send people, or even personally lead people around to find Jin Chi'er's whereabouts.

And at this time, the real murderer, who was originally dressed as a guard, was mixed in the palace of Ji Kingdom, taking advantage of the hazy moonlight, and followed many guards to "find" Jin Chi'er in the palace, and after a while, the murderer had an opportunity to sneak out of the palace.

……

After Jin Chi'er left the palace, she originally fell from the palace wall more than ten meters high, and was almost shattered, who knows, suddenly passed under the city wall A person with strong martial arts came.

The man was riding on a horse, and he was originally passing under the palace wall, but unexpectedly, a girl suddenly fell from the palace wall, and the man was light, jumped up, caught Jin Chi'er steadily, and held her in his arms, "Girl, are you?" ”

When the man was about to ask, Jin Chi'er suddenly opened his mouth, his heart was pounding, but the corners of his mouth were tugging: "Who is Your Excellency?" Thank you for the life-saving grace of the officials, in Xia Jinchier. ”

Jin Chi'er was talking, and suddenly saw the person in front of him, his eyes were clear, and he was no longer the fierce and vicious man just now, and there was a bit of awe-inspiring justice between this person's eyebrows: "Jin Chi'er? Wu Shichang was slightly stunned, he just felt that this name sounded a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he could only look up at the palace wall at the height, and pointed lightly: "Girl, why did you go over the wall just now?" Could it be that there is something that the girl can't figure out? ”

Wu Shichang was talking, and Jin Chi'er turned around, but he also lightly cultivated his thin lips. sighed and said: "This big brother, I can't hide it, someone in the palace just now wanted to kill me, so I thought of a way to escape." ”

"Want to hunt down the girl?" Wu Shichang was slightly stunned, glanced at Jin Chi'er, and saw that her face was full of elegance and temperament, so that she didn't look like a person who was a traitor.

"In that case," Wu Shichang suddenly noticed a little bit, and grabbed Jin Chi'er's arm, "If the girl can believe it, she can provide a place for the girl to go." ”

Although Wu Shichang hadn't said what exactly it was, Jin Chi'er nodded, and Wu Shichang hurriedly smiled and said, "Miss Jin Chi'er, the son of Taishou in the lower capital, Wu Shichang." I saw that I had a fate with the girl, so I took advantage of the night to take the girl to visit someone. ”

"Perhaps, she can take the girl in," Wu Shichang said, Ji Range's face suddenly appeared in his mind, and Jin Chi'er just listened, said a word of thanks lightly, and then stopped speaking.

Wu Shichang pulled Jin Chi'er on the horse, and in a blink of an eye, he went straight to Changle Palace, and when he came to the door of Changle Palace, Wu Shichang suddenly got off the horse, and said to Jin Chi'er with a thin lip: "Girl, you are waiting for me here." Come as soon as you go down. ”

Wu Shichang came to the door, knocked on the antique door of the vermilion lacquer, an old man just walked out of it, Wu Shichang was slightly stunned, only to see that the old man was wearing a gauze hat, so he hurriedly saluted and said: "Old man, please pass on one or two, just say that Wu Shichang has something to ask to see Princess Gulun." ”
