Chapter 5: Substitute for the Dead
Jiang Shaoqing was greedy for wine and lustful, so he disposed of a small courtyard in the secluded area of East Street, far away from the downtown area, and raised a beautiful outer room, and came over to play at every now and then.
He was originally an official in charge of receiving the princes of the Northern Dynasty, and it was not good that he was still messing with the outer room at this time.
Tonight, I was eating and drinking with my colleagues, and while eating, an evil fire arose in my body.
Apparently accidentally tricked.
Drugged someone.
But Jiang Shaoqing also knew that the envoys of the Northern Dynasty entered Beijing, and the eyes of the Manchu Dynasty were staring at Honglu Temple.
So after the wine was gone, he hurriedly came here to vent his fire.
Jiang Shaoqing fell into the courtyard with wine, and the monkey kicked the door open in a hurry, with a lewd smile on his face: "Little wave hoof, the master is here, let the master take care of you......"
He stepped into the door, and the door behind him suddenly made a "clang" sound and closed tightly.
In the dark room, there was a soft snort.
Instinctively, he felt that something was wrong, looked down, and was immediately shocked.
Blood, a lot of blood.
The beloved concubine who called him longing for his heart was lying on the ground with a pale face, a dagger was inserted in her neck, and Bobo's blood gushed out of her neck, soaking her whole body in a pool of blood, a pair of charming eyes that seemed to be able to hook the soul, staring at the boss, teary eyes and frightened.
It's lifeless.
Jiang Shaoqing's legs suddenly became weak, and his body trembled like chaff.
"Tonight, the moon is dark and the wind is high," a young man in Xuanyi sat on the Taishi chair, his body arched forward, one foot on the brocade bench, and his arm was naturally on his bent knee, "It's very suitable for killing." ”
Jiang Shaoqing looked at him in horror: "Yes, it's you......"
"Are you right?" The young man played with a short knife in his other hand, and in the dim room, there was a thin light of the forest, revealing the sharp edge of the devouring people, "Young, Qing, big, human!" ”
He paused word by word, the words were round, and the tone was frustrated.
"Originally, it was you!" Jiang Shaoqing finally found his voice and trembled, "Northern Dynasty proton Ji Ru, Xuan." ”
"It's me," the young man's posture remained unchanged, the smile on his face gradually expanded, the beautiful Danfeng's eyes were upturned, and the lying silkworms under his eyes were full of pleasure, "Surprised, surprised?" ”
"Ji Ruxuan," Jiang Shaoqing regained his confidence as a fourth-grade official, and said in a fierce voice, "A humble and lowly proton dares to be arrogant in my Southern Dynasty, and if you know each other, you can quickly tie up your hands and arrest ......"
He seems to have forgotten his situation.
My mind went blank too.
I only said this by instinct after many years of being an official.
"I killed someone," Ji Ruxuan said lightly, as if to say that the weather is so good today, and then, his face became panicked and frightened, and he used an exaggerated and funny tone, "Oops, you saw it just now, what should I do, I'm so afraid, I'm really afraid!" ”
He acted too exaggeratedly, which made Jiang Shaoqing panic, and felt that Ji Ruxuan was like a madman.
"What to do?" Ji Ruxuan fiddled with the knife in his hand, a little distressed, his tone changed suddenly, and he became excited, "Then I have to kill you too, otherwise no one will know that I killed someone." ”
He was laughing, smiling very beautifully, and there was a frightening excitement in his voice, like a child, revealing the innocence of not knowing the world.
"You, what do you want to do?" Jiang Shaoqing's body suddenly rose with emotion.
Before he could hold it, he felt a hot liquid, drenching his pants, and a burst of dampness slowly overflowed on the ground under him.
Ji Ruxuan sighed, looking disgusted.
"Ji Ruxuan, let me go," Jiang Shaoqing didn't know where he got the courage, 'pounced' and knelt on the ground, begging, "Please let me go, shackle you, humiliate you in the street, yes, it's Lord Siqing's idea, it's him, he wants to use this move to publicize the merits of the Cheng'en Mansion, take the opportunity to suppress the majesty of the Taiwei Mansion, and curry favor with the ......Cheng'en Mansion."
Cheng'en Gong led the army to defeat the army of the Northern Dynasty, and this is the matter of sending protons.
Humiliating the proton of the enemy country can indeed achieve the goal of declaring authority and morality.
Over the years, it has always been the Qi clan of the Taiwei Mansion that has been at war with the Northern Dynasties, and such a meritorious achievement of the Chengen Mansion has indeed dealt a huge blow to the prestige of the Taiwei Mansion.
The game between the courts has always been simple and crude, nothing more than the advantages of one or the other, whether the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.
It's boring.
A blood stain between Ji Ruxuan's eyebrows gave him an excessively pale and sickly face, adding a bit of color and a little more demonic.
"What a beautiful little sun," he suddenly covered his face, as if he was ashamed to see someone, and said a little self-defeatingly, "He actually made me ugly in front of her." ”
Like a puddle of mud, it must be ugly.
It's just terrible.
I want to kill someone.
Jiang Shaoqing looked at a loss, not knowing what he was talking about: "Your Royal Highness, please let me go, I, I really just do what I am told, it's none of my business, there is a wrong, there is a debtor, you go to Lord Siqing, it's him, I won't dare to do it again......"
Ji Ruxuan finally moved, he slowly stood up, stepped on the blood all over the ground, and came to Jiang Shaoqing step by step, condescendingly, holding the top of his head with one hand.
"No......" Jiang Shaoqing was frightened, and his fat body subconsciously moved back, "Don't come over......"
"Yes, you're right, there is a wrong, there is a debtor," Ji Ruxuan admired his frightened expression, his arm was forced, slowly pressed down, and laughed harmlessly, "You have to remember, it's not that I want to kill you, it's you who have suffered on behalf of others and become a substitute for others." ”
"No, don't ......" Dou Da's sweat kept sliding down his forehead, and Jiang Shaoqing made a 'ho-ho-ho' sound in his throat, "You can't kill me, I, I'm Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, the official worships the four products, I am the official of the imperial court, I am useful, I am the contact person of Proton in the Southern Dynasty, with me, after keeping you, I will live comfortably in the Southern Dynasty......"
In great fear, he finally regained a shred of his senses.
"Jiang Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, drunk, late-night tryst in the outer room," Ji Ruxuan's tone paused, and his smile expanded silently, "When the tide of love was surging, I accidentally knocked over the lampstand and made a peony flower ghost, this way of death, is it okay?" ”
"No, you can't kill me......" Jiang Shaoqing kept yelling.
"Peony flowers die," only heard a "click" sound, Jiang Shaoqing's eyes were cracked, his fat body, "bang", collapsed to the ground, Ji Ruxuan slowly withdrew his hand, laughing harmlessly to humans and animals, "It's also romantic to be a ghost!" ”
Inside, calm was restored.
Half an hour!
"It's dirty." Ji Ruxuan took a handkerchief and wiped it slowly, the dirt on his hands that did not exist, one by one, as if there was something on his hands, and he couldn't wipe off the dirt.
He crossed the pool of blood, lifted the lampshade, and picked up the candlestick.
