Chapter 30: Murder
"Miss, it's been so long, Miss Gu has been closed all day and no one has been seen, I'm afraid she is really disfigured." Xi'er was a little worried on her face, and seeing Ji Qiang's indifferent appearance, she was even more anxious, "What if she wants to take revenge on Miss?" ”
Ji Qiang put down the scroll in her hand, looked at the panicked Xi'er, and showed a shallow smile, "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, when have you ever seen your young lady afraid?" ”
"If she really wants to take revenge, she won't dare to do it in the Guogong Mansion." Ji Qiang said, as if she remembered something, "Xi'er, you go to your mother's place to take care of it tonight, two days ago, your mother was talking to me about another maid's massage, which is not as good as you." ”
Xi'er didn't know what idea her young lady had in her heart, and what she wanted to say more, Ji Qiang looked at it with a firm look, swallowed the words back into her stomach, and responded to the next sound.
The night breeze is clear, the moon is sparse and the stars are light.
All the subordinates are asleep, and the sound of insects and birds can be heard quietly, and the people on the bed are breathing evenly, and they are already asleep.
Suddenly, I saw a figure outside the window, but after a while, I saw a slender bamboo pipe reaching into the house through the window paper, spraying a puff of smoke from it, and then drifting into the air.
After half a pillar of incense, the door was gently pushed open, and the cold light of the dagger struck at the sleeping man on the bed.
A knife went down, but there was no real feeling, the figure of the person was stunned, and he suddenly opened the brocade quilt, and found that the person who should have been sleeping was nowhere to be found, leaving only a pillow.
I secretly said in my heart that it was not good, so I listened to the sound of the door closing behind me, "It's not in vain that I will take Xi'er away, but I can also calm down, this is too late, and you are so risky to assassinate me." ”
A cold and mocking voice sounded, the black-clothed man's eyes flashed, and he struck in the direction of Ji Qiang with a sword in his hand, but it was empty.
"There's nothing new at all, your master really likes to play this kind of shady trick." As soon as the words fell, the man in black only felt a stinging pain in his arm, and the long sword immediately fell to the ground, and Ji Qiang suddenly got down from the beam and patted the dust on his body.
The moonlight was dim, and he couldn't see Ji Qiang's expression clearly, but when the man in black saw her appear, his killing intent suddenly rose, and he took out the dagger he was carrying and was about to move.
Ji Qiang stood two feet away from him, without any timidity.
A glimmer of joy flashed in the eyes of the man in black, the previous poisonous powder was really effective, even if she wasn't unconscious, the poisonous powder had the effect of making people lose their actions.
But I didn't want to see her sigh, the smile on the corner of the black-clothed man's mouth was stiff, and he felt numb from the tiger's mouth, and soon the whole person couldn't move.
Ji Qiang only heard the sound of something falling heavily on the ground, lit the candle on the table, and met the eyes of the man in black on the ground staring at her.
Ji Qiang picked up the dagger on the ground and squatted in front of him, with a shallow smile on her face, which looked a little unfathomable under the light of the candlelight, and the look in her eyes was even more cold and terrifying, "You want to kill me?" You're not qualified enough. ”
The man in black stiffened on the ground, and Ji Qiang sneered, "Isn't it strange why I didn't get hit?" On the contrary, you are now numb all over your body, and your internal organs are aching. ”
Fortunately, during this time, I learned how to use poison with Zhao Qiao, tried to make some of it, and smeared it on the golden needle to try the effect, but I didn't expect that a guinea pig would be sent to the door so soon, "As long as you tell who sent you, how about I will detoxify you?" ”
The man in black hesitated and opened his mouth to say something, but Ji Qiang didn't hear it clearly, and got a little closer, never expecting him to struggle up and raise his hand to pinch her neck.
Ji Qiang was startled, probably because she didn't expect him to be able to resist, she didn't have time to think about it, she had already inserted the dagger into his abdomen, and her hands stopped half an inch from her neck, and then hung down weakly.
Ji Qiang frowned, looking at the man in black who was gradually silent on the ground, his face changed with warm blood on his hands.
Looking at the overcast sky outside, his eyes sparkled.
I heard a scream in the courtyard, and the maids in the courtyard who had been up in the morning hurriedly ran to Ji Qiang's room to see what was going on.
When they saw the corpses on the ground, their faces turned pale, and several of them had already run out of the courtyard.
In just a quarter of an hour, Ji Yuanxun arrived.
With him came, there was also Gu Hanyan, because his face was not healed, he was veiled, and when he saw the corpse on the ground, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he hid his face and said in horror: "Qiang'er, are you killing someone?" ”
When Ji Yuanxun heard her say this, his heart had already sunk for half a minute, the shocking red color was disgusting, the corpse on the ground was bleeding, there was a dagger stuck in his body, and he looked ugly, and he couldn't help but sink his face, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Miss Guogongfu killed someone, this matter is not a trivial matter.
Ji Qiang had a white face, she was already sitting on the side with the help of her subordinates, still in a trance, when she heard Ji Yuanxun's voice, she raised her eyes in a daze, met his gloomy gaze, her eyes were red, and she seemed to have finally come to her senses, staggered to her feet, and lowered her eyes to call Daddy.
Ji Yuanxun rushed over when he heard the news, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw a corpse, so naturally he didn't notice Ji Qiang.
At this time, I noticed the blood stains on her body, her face was pale, her hair was scattered, and she seemed to fall down as soon as the wind blew.
Before Ji Qiang could speak, Gu Hanyan had already spoken: "This should be a thief who broke into the house and wanted to steal something, but I didn't expect to break into Qiang'er's room by mistake, but no matter how bad it is, it can't end his life!" This is a human life, why are you so confused! ”
Gu Hanyan had a look of hatred on his face, and his tone was full of distress.
Ji Qiang glanced at Gu Hanyan, whose eyes were red, sneered in her heart, stabilized her mind, and glanced at the black-clothed man on the ground, "How does Yan'er know that this is a thief who steals things, not a killer who wants to take my life?" After a pause, he said, "How do you know that he must have broken in by mistake, in case he came for me?" ”
Gu Hanyan choked, and retorted dissatisfiedly: "What does Qiang'er mean by this, the guards in the Guogong Mansion are all strong in martial arts, so naturally no one will be able to get close to Qiang'er's body." ”
The corners of Ji Qiang's mouth hooked slightly, and her eyes were clear, "What Yan'er said is very reasonable, the guards in the Guogong Mansion are strict, and ordinary thieves can't get in, when this person died last night, he said that someone instructed him." ”
A trace of panic flashed in Gu Hanyan's eyes, and he turned to look at Ji Yuanxun on the side, "This person's daughter has seen it a few times in the mansion, I am afraid that she has been hiding for a long time, she sneaked into my room last night, and when she woke up, she found that this person wanted to kill her daughter, and she ...... the dagger in the struggle."
Ji Qiang bit her lower lip, her expression was full of fear for the rest of her life, and she didn't need to say much about the rest of her life.
Ji Yuanxun's eyes were full of distress when he looked at her, and he scolded: "What are you still doing in a daze, leaving this thing here is an eyesore!" ”
The family members who brought her were all stunned, and they all started to carry the body down, Ji Yuanxun patted her shoulder comfortingly, "You have a good rest first, everything has a father." ”
