Chapter 59: The Upper Room Beam

"Summoned to the palace? But something happened to the Song State Mansion. Ji Qiang asked strangely.

Bai shook his head and said blankly: "He never talks about the affairs of the imperial court at home, and I don't just ask, I don't know what happened." ”

"That's right, let's rest in the house, it's getting late at night, I'm tired all the way, go into the house and sit down." Ji Qiang helped Bai up, Bai sat in the carriage for a long time, his steps were unsteady, he stumbled a little, and the frightened Ji Qiang hurriedly hugged Bai, so he didn't slip and fall, Bai didn't care too much about his body, on the way to the room by Ji Qiang, he asked about the jewelry shop in a row, Ji Qiang knew that he couldn't deceive him, so he said it 1510.

The room was lit with candles, and the light emitted by dozens of copper oil lamps illuminated the room transparently, Ji Qiang and Bai sat on the edge of the bed, Bai held Ji Qiang's hand tightly, and asked Ji Qiang about everything after entering the princess's mansion, and then talked about food, housing, and transportation.

"Over the years, he has been worried about the country and the people, and most of his mind has been put on political achievements for the people, and the family has not lost any money, all of which have been brought over by some of my mother's family, so that our family can sustain it, and now you have suffered such a dirty thing, framed by the villain, and the family really can't afford to spend much money, but you can't sit still, thinking that you can help a little is a little, so I discussed with your father, and brought the contract of the family's title deed shop over, and sold it, which is worth some money."

Bai Shi took out a thick stack of paper deeds from the cuffs of the fit as she spoke, she was still untying the cloth strips tied on it, Ji Qiang held down Bai's hand, shook her head and said: "E-niang, everything in the family needs money to take care of it, my brother's health is not good, and I can't delay taking medicine and seeking medical attention, I don't dare to ask for this money, and didn't I tell E-niang just now, I already have a way to solve the 400,000 taels, don't worry, take these back quickly, otherwise I won't be happy." ”

Between the words, the corners of Ji Qiang's eyes were a little moist, during this time, Ji Qiang had seen too much ugliness of human nature, and she had also seen the faces of those people in her previous life through and through, thinking of the gradual neglect of the Bai family in her previous life, and the anxiety of her family's concern for her now, Ji Qiang's heart, which had been strong for a long time, softened again.

As soon as the corners of his eyes were wet, Bai immediately saw it, took out a handkerchief to wipe her, and said distressedly: "But I'm still worried about the jewelry store, you have never let Eniang worry, but I'm afraid there is no way, this contract is still taken, and the family can use it tightly." ”

Saying that he was about to open the cloth bag in his hand again, Ji Qiang pressed Bai's hand and shook his head with satisfaction, Bai sighed, so he had to give up and take the paper deed back.

Since she was a child, Ji Qiang's personality has always followed her, she is a strong temper, and she can't pull back ten cows for the things she decides, knowing that Ji Qiang will not accept this money now whether she is alive or dead, the Bai family helped to think of a solution, but she secretly planned in her heart that when she went back to pull down her old face, she would go to her mother's house to borrow some silver taels, and she couldn't be crushed to death by the 400,000 Ji Qiang.

Ji Qiang didn't know Bai's thoughts, and chatted with Bai about the thief of the old housekeeper of the princess's mansion, Bai still thought that the old housekeeper was the one who harmed Ji Qiang, and scolded the old housekeeper, Ji Qiang's eyes flashed with deep meaning, and there was still a sentence to follow, this time, the two chatted for a full hour before giving up, if it weren't for Ji Qiang saying that she still had something to do tomorrow and needed to rest earlier, I'm afraid that Bai would still pull her to continue chatting.

Closing the door and watching the lights in the room go out completely, Ji Qiang walked to his bedroom in small steps, and when passing by the window, he also heard Bai's deep lament, this night, I'm afraid she won't sleep, Ji Qiang entered his bedroom with a heavy heart, and before coming in, he also asked Leng Xiang if there was news about Prince Qi, Leng Xiang said no, Ji Qiang asked them to rest, and entered the room by themselves.

In order to let Ji Qiang sleep peacefully, chamomile lit a good agarwood, and most of the oil lamps in the room were extinguished, so the vision was a little dim, and the door lock was locked, Ji Qiang took off the clothes outside, and prepared to go to bed to rest.

A few steps away from the bed, she suddenly smelled a subtle smell of wet earth, and between her forehead, a stone grazed her bangs and fell to the ground.

Ji Qiang's body tensed, her eyes skimmed upward, but she saw a boot on the beam of the room that was not completely retracted, Ji Qiang pretended not to know anything, and walked towards the bed quietly, between the fingers of her middle finger, a silver needle was tightly clamped in it, emitting a dim light in the night.

On the silver needle, with her latest configuration of poison, pierced into the skin, it instantly paralyzed and weakened, and also had the effect of sealing the acupuncture veins.

There are still two steps to walk to the bed, Ji Qiang keenly heard the sound of footsteps behind her, a breeze blowing, Ji Qiang's hand twisted and stabbed back, and the sound of breaking the air started, her palm holding the silver needle was directly grabbed by one hand, Ji Qiang secretly said badly, twisted her long legs and swept back, the hand that grabbed her behind her was released, and Ji Qiang also saw a man who retreated a few steps away.

Xia Jin looked at her with a young smile: "I haven't seen her for a few days, Her Royal Highness the Princess's skills have grown a little more, obviously there are endless crises, and Her Royal Highness the Princess's skills have not fallen, which really makes me admire." ”

"Where is it, how can it be compared to the last time His Royal Highness King Qi who looked like a thief, in the past, he used to climb the window, but now he actually goes to the beam, which makes people know that His Royal Highness King Qi climbed on the beam of the little woman's boudoir, I am afraid that it will make people laugh off their big teeth." Ji Qiang put away the silver needle and looked at Xia Jinnian mocking.

Xia Jinnian ignored her sarcasm, found a chair next to her and sat down, raised the teacup on the table and took a sip and frowned, "Doesn't the cold tea be refilled?" ”

"His Royal Highness the King of Qi, do you think you are in the Qi Palace? My small place is not as spacious as a mansion, and it is normal for people to be not attentive enough. Ji Qiang coldly leaned against the window to note Xia Jinnian's movements, the teacup that Xia Jinnian had just drunk, but she had drunk it before, in other words, Xia Jinnian drank tea with her teacup, thinking of this, Ji Qiang felt nauseous in her heart, and there was no good color on her face.

"Tsk, it's really shabby, not to mention that his shop still owes 400,000 taels of silver, so this king can understand." Xia Jinnian looked at Ji Qiang and said: "But I can ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to write a letter and ask me to come over, I don't think it's a small trouble if it's not the 400,000 yuan, but with this attitude, this king feels that it is difficult to help Her Royal Highness the Princess survive this catastrophe." ”

After speaking, Xia Jinnian turned his head and continued to pick up the teacup in his hand and play with it, Ji Qiang frowned, thinking that he would smash the wine glass after this person left, and walked towards Xia Jinnian with great reluctance on his face, and sat down on the chair opposite.
