Chapter 59 Responsibility
Inside the Hall of Glory of the Kingdom of Qi.
The rosewood dresser exudes a faint cool fragrance, Rong Xi is dressed in a dress with cloud brocade and gold outlining peony flowers, covered with extremely soft and light pink shark yarn, and carefully draws his eyebrows against the copper mirror with hollow carving inlaid with mutton fat jade in front of him.
Thinking about all this she is enjoying now, she can't help but sigh, "Sure enough, what I did at the beginning was really good! If I hadn't been in a hurry and lied that I was the princess Qi Yun, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to enjoy this today."
Now Rong Xi is not afraid of Qi Yun coming back at all, because just a few days ago, she received news that the real Qi Yun had died in Yixian County, and even the mausoleum seemed to be run by Wen Song next to Qi Sixian.
Thinking about it like this, Rong Xi felt that she should be able to sit back and relax now, after all, even Qi Sixian, who was the monarch, knew her true identity, and she was not worried that someone would be able to demolish her at all.
Rong Xi proudly admired her current appearance in the mirror, looking at the things she was wearing on her head, she suddenly felt that it was not enough.
How can these ornaments match me? Rong Xi thought of this in her heart, and she suddenly thought that on the day of her canonization, it seemed that Qi Sixian had also rewarded her with a set of white jade inlaid with pearls and jade, which seemed to be more in line with her dress today.
So Rong Xi immediately ordered to let people take out her headdress, but she shouted for a long time, but no one answered her.
These, it's only been a few days, they dare not listen to my orders, and I will definitely drag them down and punish them severely, Rong Xi thought so in his heart.
Because no one paid attention to her for a long time, Rong Xi had to get up and go out to see what was going on, but as soon as she walked out of the palace door, she was frightened by everything in front of her.
As far as the eye can see, there are corpses piled everywhere in front of him, even the glazed tile heavy eaves roof, and the palace walls and floors everywhere, which are stained with blood, and the whole palace is like a purgatory on earth.
She was so frightened by all this in front of her that she sat on the ground, just when she wanted to escape from her palace, someone stopped her, Rong Xi turned her head to see that the person who stopped her was actually Qi Sixian's henchman Ji Sheng.
"What are you doing here? Didn't you see that Her Royal Highness the princess fell? Don't help Your Highness up yet." Ji Sheng opened his mouth to reprimand.
After hearing Ji Sheng's reprimand, Rong Xi realized that there was not only Ji Sheng next to her voice, but also several palace people following Ji Sheng.
After the people behind heard Ji Sheng speak, they understood Ji Sheng's methods, because they were afraid that Ji Sheng would punish them, so immediately two people wanted to step forward to help Rong Xi up.
Seeing that the two of them were about to meet Rong Xi, Rong Xi suddenly felt that something was wrong, she hurriedly got up from the ground, and she didn't care about paying attention to her clothes, and she didn't even have half a point of noble demeanor.
Tut-tut, he said, how can this cheap maid be named a princess? It's just a small scene, and it's scared like this, if Her Royal Highness the princess is really here, it will never be like this, Ji Sheng thought in his heart.
But after today, she must not have a chance to be a princess. Thinking like this, Ji Sheng's eyes were a little more pitiful.
Rong Xi kept looking at the few people in front of her, so she quickly noticed the change in Ji Sheng's eyes.
Ji Sheng is just a minion, if he hadn't relied on being Qi Sixian's cronies, I'm afraid he would have been killed a long time ago, but how dare he always look at me like this? Rong Xi's heart was full of doubts.
Thinking of this, Rong Xi suddenly remembered that when he eavesdropped on himself before, it seemed that it was also this dog slave who suggested to Qi Sixian not to give himself a title, and thinking about it like this, Rong Xi's heart became even more disgusted with Ji Sheng.
Sooner or later, I'm going to clean up this dog minion, Rong Xi swore secretly, but the top priority was to quickly find out what was going on now, so Rong Xi said in a fake voice:
"Lord Ji is here, I don't know why? And what's wrong with the Hall of Glory of the main palace? Please let Master Ji know."
Hearing Rong Xi's question, Ji Sheng didn't reply immediately, only to see him look at the surrounding scene, and then returned unhurriedly.
"There's no hurry about this matter, Temple
If there's anything next, let's go to the temple first, and we'll talk about it later."
After saying this, Ji Sheng smiled and asked for mercy to enter the hall.
Seeing Ji Sheng's way of doing this, Rong Xi looked around and found that there was no one of his own, so he had to obey Ji Sheng's arrangement, and walked into this huge hall of glory with Ji Sheng and others.
After a while, everyone walked into the Hall of Glory, and as soon as Ji Sheng came in, he sat on the main seat in the hall, not caring about the feeling of pity.
Seeing this scene in front of her, Rong Xi really wanted to laugh, but she was just a minion, and she deserved to sit in her place.
"Doesn't Lord Ji take this palace in his eyes?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Rong Xi's mouth.
"In your eyes, isn't Your Highness, you don't know much about the situation outside? Why don't you let the minister speak for Your Highness."
Although Ji Sheng's tone was inquiring, he still called Rong Xi Her Royal Highness the Princess, but his attitude was extremely unfriendly to Rong Xi, seeing Ji Sheng like this, Rong Xi guessed that something must have happened outside that she didn't know.
But what can happen outside? Although Qi Xuan has not been found yet, hasn't Qi Sixian already succeeded to the throne? Even she has received the will of canonization, what can be done outside? It's a pity that I can't figure it out.
Before Rong Xi could think of it, the person next to Ji Sheng told Rong Xi why Ji Sheng dared to treat her like this, in addition, Rong Xi also learned about the current state of Qi through that person's mouth.
It turned out that just a few days ago, in the battle of Qi and Chu, the Qi State was defeated, and Wen Song, who had been ordered to lead the troops, had already sacrificed his life for the country.
Now the army of Chu has come to the city, and the Chu army will be the entire Linyu siege, and Chu Xingchen, the king of Chu, is known for his ruthlessness and ruthlessness, if it falls into his hands, I am afraid he will die very miserably.
Therefore, when Qi Sixian knew that he had no way to escape, he simply asked the entire Linyu people to be martyred for him.
Now in Linyu City, the government has locked the doors of every house in the city, and piled firewood and other flammable materials outside the door, waiting for Qi Sixian to give an order to let the entire Linyu City accompany him to the funeral.
"Your Royal Highness, you are the king's niece! Now the people in this Hall of Glory, the minions have been disposed of for you, and now you are left."
"You, you mean it's all because you're doing that?"
Rong Xi asked in a trembling voice, her hand unconsciously clenched the sleeve beside her, and the constantly shaking hand showed the fear and fear in her heart.
Seeing Rong Xi's performance, Ji Sheng didn't wait for the people around him to answer for Rong Xi, so he replied to himself: "Yes, but Princess Minghui is Her Royal Highness the princess of my Qi country after all, and the minister will give you a chance to choose how to die."
As soon as the words fell, Ji Sheng clapped his hands, and soon someone brought a tray.
I saw that there were daggers, white silk and a small medicine bottle on it in turn.
Seeing that Rong Xi's gaze fell on the medicine bottle, Ji Sheng couldn't help but reach out and pick up the bottle, he looked at the small medicine bottle carefully, and then played with him in his hand, and explained intimately:
"Does Her Highness want to take this? This is the latest poison developed by the Tai Hospital, and it is said that this medicine is colorless and tasteless, and it can be effective within a quarter of an hour after drinking.
But it seems that after drinking this medicine, it seems to be very painful! There was a person who tried the medicine before, and it seemed that he had already died of pain before the poison appeared! Are you sure Your Highness still chooses this?"
After saying this, Ji Sheng was about to hand the medicine to Rong Xi's hand, and Rong Xi was so frightened that he immediately took a few steps back.
"Your Highness stepped back, didn't you want to choose? If His Highness can't make a decision, then the minister will choose for His Highness himself." After finishing speaking, Ji Sheng also looked up at Rong Xi, and his eyes seemed to be full of eagerness.
Seeing Ji Sheng like this, Rong Xi admitted that she was scared, but since she dared to lie to everyone and say that she was a princess, now that she is really going to die, she will never sit back and wait to be killed.
Ji Sheng looked at Rong Xi like this, as if he had changed into a person in an instant, and abandoned his fear
, and then tell him confidently.
"Don't bother Lord Ji, this palace can choose by itself."
Hearing Rong Xi's words, Ji Sheng put the medicine bottle back into the tray, and then motioned to the others not to disturb Rong Xi, he wanted to watch Rong Xi in person, and let Rong Xi choose for himself.
Rong Xi looked at the things in front of her, to be honest, she didn't want to choose any of them, but looking at these people in front of her, she really couldn't think of how to get herself out of this predicament.
After a long time, Rong Xi finally chose the dagger......
Two flowers, one on each table.
When Jiang Wan inquired about the situation of the Han family, she planned to go directly to Cheng'an Hou, and exchange the original life-saving grace for Han Jiao to find Qi Xuan's whereabouts in Zhao Country for her.
"Little sister, don't you think it's like reciprocating kindness? Are you sure that Han Jiao will directly promise you?" 012 asked, confused.
"I'm not sure!" Jiang Wan replied casually.
"Not sure?" After listening to the young lady's answer, 012 felt that his blood pressure was about to be angry with the young lady. c
"I'm not sure you dare to go straight to someone."
Looking at 012's almost crazy appearance, Jiang Wan comforted softly, "Didn't I just give it a try? If she doesn't agree, I'll forget it, and then I'll find it myself."
"Okay, don't worry so much, besides, their family does owe me a favor that has not been repaid, and I came to ask for it this time, didn't it directly provide them with a chance to play.
The saving grace is so great, just ask them to help inquire about a piece of news, they should not refuse." After speaking, Jiang Wan also smiled at 012.
