Chapter 044: Seeking Skin with the Tiger

Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Great Jin Official Maiden!

The red waist was actually suspected of deceiving Ji Wushuang when she spoke, after all, she also relied on guessing, and she was not very sure.

But Ji Wushuang's next sentence smashed down coldly, and the red waist was also a little stunned.

"Your unmarried wife?" Redwaist repeats this sentence with some subtlety.

Ji Wushuang was so happy that he seemed to have decided to open the conversation and no longer hide it, "Not bad!" King Chen agreed to my condition of marrying the princess, that is, I would accompany Yan Gongzi in this dark earth until he died. ”

The second half of the sentence is a bit gnashing of teeth, of course, the red waist, who has also lived underground for a while, fully understands where the resentment in that gnashing teeth comes from.

The red-waisted dagger couldn't help but loosen up: "But you want to conspire with me and escape from here." ”

Could it be that he has only now discovered that it is actually not cost-effective to live here in the dark in order to marry a princess?

A sarcastic smile appeared on Ji Wushuang's face: "That's because of King Chen's treachery, I can't get what I want, and of course I won't continue to stay in this underground for a long time." ”

Red Waist had some complicated thoughts, she couldn't sort out the relationship between Yan Mansion and King Chen and Ji Wushuang for a while, and the top priority was to escape.

Thinking of Ji Rou's fate, Red Waist asked him left and right, "How did King Chen betray his promise?" ”

Ji Wushuang's face was cold, there was a hint of gloom, the hand holding the dagger in the red waist was sweating, and he heard him say, "Princess Chen Guo is no longer alive." ”

Sure enough, the red-waisted eyes flashed, but he still didn't dare to withdraw the dagger.

Unexpectedly, Ji Wushuang sneered: "What, you still don't believe it?" Then you just stab me to death, and save yourself from being suspicious here. ”

The red waist said suspiciously: "Why did King Chen just give you marriage, what do you value to King Chen?" ”

Ji Wushuang's thin lips pursed: "Do you think that this place, others are very willing to come?" Who can you send but me? ”

As soon as the words fell, his neck was loosened, and the red waist withdrew the dagger.

"I have one last question." The red waist looked at Ji Wushuang who turned around, his eyes were quiet, "Although Ji Rou is the princess of Chen Kingdom, she has always lived in Zhao Kingdom, how did you know her?" ”

Ji Rou is by the side of the city lord's wife and lives in Chili City.

Ji Wushuang's eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth were faintly hooked: "She has indeed been in Zhao Country all along, but I, but I have not been in Chen Country all the time." ”

It means that Ji Wushuang has been to Zhao State? There was surprise and surprise in the red waist eyes.

Ji Wushuang opened his mouth and said: "In previous years, I traveled in Zhao Kingdom and met Princess Ji Rou, and King Chen's eagle claw found out about this past, so he used the marriage of me and the princess as a bait and asked me to come here. ”

There is nothing wrong with this explanation, at least for a while the red waist cannot be verified and can no longer be doubted.

Ji Wushuang glanced at the sky above his head, and the corners of his lips sneered: "Can you go?" ”

By the time they had been delayed, the smoke had already billowed out of the passageway, and if they hadn't been standing at the vent, the smoke alone would have suffocated them.

Redwaist couldn't find a reason to keep him, so he could only acquiesce.

Ji Wushuang chuckled, stepped forward to open the manhole cover of the passage, and climbed up in a few steps. The red waist didn't dare to delay, and almost got to the ground with Ji Wushuang's front and back feet.

Ji Wushuang seemed to understand her thoughts, and laughed sarcastically.

Redwaist looked at him, "We must seal this passage, or the fire will spread to it." ”

The two of them pushed the iron cover of the passage mouth tightly and blocked the hole tightly. In this way, the fire in the cave will be slowly extinguished.

Ji Wushuang stretched out his hand in front of the red waist: "Give me the dagger." ”

Red Waist glanced at him: "What for?" ”

Ji Wushuang laughed: "Let's go out in a while, I don't know if there is an ambush outside, I know martial arts, do you think the dagger is safer in your hands or in my hands?" ”

The red waist silently handed him the dagger, this was also stuffed to her by Huo Yinniang, and the small one was only for self-defense at most. And if Ji Wushuang knows martial arts, she doesn't necessarily get a bargain when she holds a dagger.

Ji Wushuang weighed the dagger for a moment, then turned around and began to walk forward.

Red Waist walked out with him, it was really difficult to know the time underground, it seemed that a day and a night had passed, and now it was the sun setting, but Red Waist accidentally glanced at it and found that Ji Wushuang had beads of sweat on his forehead, and his footsteps were a little vain.

A person who has been underground for a long time, this can't be hidden, originally the red waist was a little suspicious of Ji Wushuang, but he really couldn't pretend to look like this.

Red Waist had to temporarily let go of the guard in his heart, and Ji Wushuang walked to a fork in the road and stopped, looking around, more like he was observing something, and then, he walked straight in one direction.

The red waist also immediately followed him, this Ji Wushuang didn't look like she was walking around, she and the other women were tied blindfolded, but Ji Wushuang was different, even if he was underground for a year and a half, maybe he still remembered the way out.

Thinking of those women, the red waist raised his eyes suddenly, looked around, and found that the courtyard was quiet, and even half of the figure was missing, what about the women who ran out in advance?

Ji Wushuang suddenly stared coldly at a door in front of him, this door was made of iron, and there was only one handle around it, but it seemed that the lock had rusted.

"This is the exit?" Redwaist asked.

Ji Wushuang raised the dagger in his hand, turned it upside down and slammed the deadbolt with the handle a few times, and the chain fell to the ground in response.

Ji Wushuang pulled open the handle and opened the iron door.

Even if it was a red waist, there was a little excitement at this time, and she looked at it according to her mood, and the scene in front of her was unexpectedly a little familiar, no, or rather, too familiar, too familiar.

It's like the backyard of the Yan Mansion. Red Waist had been here for three days before, and he was very familiar with every grass and tree here.

Ji Wushuang noticed that she was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The red waist restrained her face, the passage of such a big project under Yan Gongzi, and the way she got into the carriage and walked for several hours, she thought that it might be in a remote place in the middle of nowhere, but she didn't expect that everything had never left Yan Mansion.

It's like a dream, back to the original point, the red waist can finally understand why Huo Yinniang can appear in such a timely manner, from the backyard to another yard, of course, it is easy.

Red Waist felt that Ji Wushuang was still looking at him, so he calmed down and said, "Let's go." ”

She took a few steps, and Ji Wushuang called her leisurely: "Hong'er." ”

There was a hint of nonchalance in his voice, and the red waist turned around, just in time to see this expression on his face.

Ji Wushuang played with the dagger, and his eyes didn't look at the red waist, but the words he asked reminded people of the cold front that flashed out of the dagger: "How do you know that Princess Chen Guo has been living in Zhao State, and even know that she has never returned to Chen State?" ”

The people have this anecdote that the princess of a country has landed in another country, but they know that it is true, and they also know that this princess of Chen has never set foot in the land of Chen Guo, I am afraid that no one in the world will know.

Because it's a secret within a secret.

In order to force out Ji Wushuang's truth, Red Waist inadvertently said too much.

The red waist seemed to finally understand, she stared at Ji Wushuang stiffly, but Ji Wushuang still didn't look at her.

He played with the dagger intently, and waited patiently for the red waist to reply.

The red waist inhaled softly and said, "I've been to Chili City. ”

Ji Wushuang let out an "oh" and continued to look at the dagger in his hand: "But listening to your understanding of things, it's obviously not as simple as having been there." ”

Chili City has a large population, and tens of thousands of people lived in Chili City before King Zhao later decreed the closure of the city. But none of them knew for sure that Ji Rou, the princess of Chen Kingdom, lived in the courtyard of their city lord.

The red waist had to be on guard, her hand behind her back bent, and her gaze fell on Ji Wushuang's dagger.

She regretted handing over the dagger.

At this time, Ji Wushuang finally stopped his hand movements, and looked at the red waist seriously: "Although I am underground, I also heard about that big event, the city lord of Chili City, Guan Cheng, was guarding and stealing, but his wife had already betrayed him and took refuge in King Chen, after King Zhao knew about it, he slaughtered Chili City, the body of the city lord's wife was found, and his daughter Ji Rou was also killed by the people sent by King Zhao." ”

Ji Wushuang's voice was also very calm when he said this, he had previously admitted that Ji Rou was the one who wanted to be his wife, but now he said the news of her death himself, but there was a little numbness in his tone.

The red waist was sweating in the palm behind her, and she now understood a truth about seeking skin with the tiger, but she couldn't just let Ji Wushuang guess. She believed that Ji Wushuang was just guessing, as he said, after all, he was underground, and the details he could know were limited. Even in his case, it is already very surprising to know so much.

The red waist then stared at Ji Wushuang's eyes, not letting himself have any superfluous movements on his face, and said, "Actually, Princess Chen Guo is not dead. ”

Ji Wushuang's deep eyes couldn't see the waves, but he asked the red waist instead: "The princess is not dead?" ”

The red waist nodded affirmatively: "It's not dead, there was a big incident in the Guan City Lord's Mansion at that time, and someone let the Guan City Lord see through the true face of the City Lord's wife, so that the couple turned against each other." The lord of the castle wanted to kill the princess to take revenge, but he didn't do so because someone stopped him from the side. In the end, it was the city lord who lost his life first, and the city lord's wife also used her own life to replace the princess to continue to live, but the princess later ran out of the city lord's mansion by herself, and no one knows her whereabouts so far. ”

It's really no one knows, because if even the Nine Kings don't know in this world, then no one can know where Ji Rou is.

Ji Rou is not dead, but she is already crazy. A crazy princess, whether Ji Wushuang still cares.

Ji Wushuang was about to speak, and behind the red waist, a gentle voice with a gentle smile slowly sounded: "Isn't this Hong'er, you're in the mood to tell a story just after you come out?" ”
