"Shane?"

What he said made both of them confused. Today, during the day, Shi Qingqian drove her mother out of Yanwang's mansion, and at night Qiaocui came, saying "thank you", what is "grace"?

Qiao Cui cried and nodded heavily: "Yes, my mother, I myself feel that it is a burden, the theft has ended up like this, and I dare to be so presumptuous in the new mansion, I am actually afraid that the woman will affect my life for the rest of my life, although the princess drove her mother away, but did not sell it, I also felt grateful in my heart, so I made a few sachets...... I want to thank the princess in person! ”

As she spoke, she hurriedly opened the package in her hand, and there were really a few delicate sachets lying inside, looking at the embroidery patterns on them, even laymen could see how much effort they put into it.

Xue Ying and Xiaolian glanced at each other, but they were still a little hesitant, and when they were struggling, they suddenly heard Shi Qingqian's voice inside: "Call her in." ”

Qiaocui was like being amnesty, her face was overjoyed, and she hurriedly thanked her, "Thank you, princess!" Only then did Xiaolian Xue Ying push open the door and walk in with the sachet in his arms.

Shi Qingqian was sitting silently on the side of the bed, and when he saw Qiaocui walking in with a calm face, he glanced over: "I expected you to hate me, but I didn't expect you to be a general knowledge." ”

"How can a slave hold a grudge against the princess?" Qiaocui smiled, put the sachet on the desk, and sorted it out with both hands, "My mother, say it's my mother...... In fact, there is only the grace of childbirth, and there is no nurturing feeling, and the slave has never been rich and expensive in this life, I think it is good to be an unloved concubine in a small family, at least this life can be stable, right? But it's all her fault...... If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been involved in such a big house in my life. ”

What people, what lives, this is indeed the truth. Just like Shi Qingqian can't imagine how to live a life of poverty and destitude in peace, Qiaocui can never imagine the intrigue among the big families back then, how to protect herself.

Thinking of this, Shi Qingqian felt a little more sympathetic to Qiaocui.

After all, how many ancient women can marry perfectly? Either they respect each other, respect each other like guests and have no true feelings; Either it's the sympathy of living with your fingers in the small portal; Or, it seems that the mansion seems to be melting and rich, but in fact, it is terrified every day. In fact, when I think about it, I feel that fate is really fair. Those who are starving and trapped may be able to live in peace for the rest of their lives, but those who are rich and wealthy also have to worry about their future.

After packing up the sachet, Qiaocui put her hand in her sleeve in a regular manner, and gently walked to Shi Qingqian's side, Shi Qingqian was still a little puzzled, why Qiaocui's aura was a little different today, so she heard her say quietly: "The princess has been so good all her life, and she has never experienced the days of starvation and grabbing food with wild dogs." ”

Such a day, when she was just kicked out of the house, she was fortunate enough to experience it for two years.

Shi Qingqian moved his body slightly, and looked Qiaocui up and down, "Life has different sorrows in the world, I haven't experienced your difficulties, my difficulties...... You wouldn't know, of course. ”

Qiaocui's face turned cold, and before she could speak, she only heard a scream outside: "Princess! Come on! Princess—"

Shi Qingqian and Qiao Cui were both stunned, but they reacted very quickly, Qiao Cui's originally calm face suddenly became hideous, and the hand hidden in the sleeve was pulled out, and in my hand was a dagger that was bright and dangling!

At the moment when the gate was kicked open from the outside, Qiao Cui brandished a dagger and stabbed down—

Only hearing the sound of the dagger inserting into the flesh, Shi Qingqian almost felt the breath of death at that moment, his eyes suddenly lost focus, and he only struggled and clumsily flew up and kicked away Qiaocui who pounced on him.

The dagger was also pulled out by her, and blood immediately splashed out of Shi Qingqian's chest, staining her vision red.

"Princess—"

"Damn it!" Qiaocui fell down heavily, gritted her back molars and scolded and pounced again, "There is no one in the world who does not pursue wealth!" I'm not going to live like that again! Kill you...... King Ning will tell me to live a good life......"

"No, don't-"

Xiaolian screamed, her legs were as weak as the dough kneaded, she couldn't move a step at all, she covered her eyes in shock, Xue Ying wanted to pounce and pull Qiaocui, but she was like a crazy cow, her strength was great, and she kicked her away reflexively.

Shi Qingqian clutched his chest and gasped, fortunately, the wound was not in a very important place, but it still made people feel suffocated. Seeing that the dagger was getting closer and closer to him, suddenly a somewhat thin figure was in front of him, and the dagger stabbed into the body mercilessly, and the woman in front of him screamed, clutching her bleeding abdomen and head, and fell to the ground.

The dagger was still on the man's body, and Qiaocui, who had lost her weapon, was surrounded by a wrinkle, and before she could react, someone was hit hard from behind with a wooden plank, and she immediately closed her eyes and fell down.

Xue Ying, who was holding the small pestle in both hands, trembled, and after being stunned for a moment, he hurriedly threw the things in his hand aside, and pounced in three or two steps in front of Shi Qingqian, who was already covered in blood, "Princess!" Princess...... Princess, are you alright? ”

Shi Qingqian pressed the bleeding wound on her chest, only gasping heavily, unable to say anything, there was a faint pain in her abdomen, and she couldn't realize how much pain it was at this time, only knew that her consciousness was gradually blurring.

"Doctor! Hurry up and ask for a doctor! ”

At that time, Nanyuan was on fire, and the green leaves saw Qiao Cui in a trance that something reflecting the light flashed in his hand, and he couldn't rest assured in his heart no matter what, so he hurriedly chased after him, and sure enough, he saw Qiao Cui enter Shi Qingqian's house, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't stop Qiao Cui's behavior no matter how much he shouted, so he could only try his best to block in front of Shi Qingqian at the last moment when Qiao Cui rushed up with a bloody dagger for the second time.

Someone said that the favor will be repaid, that is what it will definitely do, Lu Ye has always been grateful to Shi Qingqian for giving him two silver taels to save his mother's life, so at that moment there was no hesitation in his heart, that is, he exchanged his life for Shi Qingqian, and this life is worth it.

The princess was assassinated in the palace, and the fetus in the womb was dying, and the Yan Wangfu was suddenly in chaos. Shi Qingqian struggled to suppress the confusion and uneasiness of the people in the whole mansion who had been away from home for two days, and suddenly surged up, roaring along with the fire against the sky in Nanyuan.

This night, the sky is full of blood red.
