Chapter 229 She's Dead
Early in the morning, Qiu Man came out of the house. After spending two wonderful nights with Song Wang, she was full of energy. She jumped out, knocked on the door and asked softly, "Are you up?"
Soon, the door opened.
Jiusu asked: "Manman, what's with that expression on your face?"
"Hey, did you have any last night..." Qiu Man glanced into the room ambiguously.
Jiusu pointed his finger at her head and gently pushed it, "You slept well. How are you and Master Song?"
Qiu Man blushed.
"Am I not your wife now?"
Jiusu chuckled and said helplessly, "Yes, Meiling saw you and Mr. Song flirting yesterday, and also saw me and Ajing... Hey, I'll go see Meiling."
I knocked for a long time, but no one opened the door.
Fearing something might happen, he rushed in.
The waiter had just finished delivering the hot water when he saw them looking for someone and said, "She was taken away by the Shao Mansion's housekeeper. She said she was going to serve the master. Or was it me who delivered the bath water?"
Jiusu opened the letter.
treasure.
The two words are as heavy as gold.
"I'm going out for a while. If I don't come back within an hour, have Lord Song lead the troops and take over the Shao Mansion!"
Qiu Man realized the seriousness of the situation and reminded her, "Sister... uh, let Young Master Jiang accompany you, okay?"
Jiusu shook her head and turned around.
She opened the door a crack and saw A Jing standing very close to her. He would not come out without her permission. She said, "It would be bad for anyone if his identity is exposed. Let him stay with Lord Song."
Watching the person leave.
Jiang Jing lowered his eyes and looked at the dark shadows on the ground. Without Qiu Man's explanation, he could understand what A Su meant, but he could not ignore A Su's safety.
Next to the bed was the women's clothes that Ah Su had changed out of.
His gaze paused.
"I would like to ask Miss Qiu for a favor."
“…”
When he came to Shao's house again, Jiusu felt something was wrong. The housekeeper's smile was gloomy. Jiusu said with a stiff upper lip: "Housekeeper, I'm here to see Mr. Shao."
The butler nodded: "Please come in."
Suddenly, a figure flashed past from behind. Jiusu turned around and didn't see anyone. She pursed her lips, fearing that this time it would be very dangerous.
In the study, clouds and smoke are like the sea.
The air was damp and choking.
As soon as Jiusu entered, he saw Shao Jie's eyes full of calculation.
Shao Jie rotated the portrait in his hand.
"Is this you? Should I call you Jiusu, Jia Sile, or fake death?"
He thought about it all morning and finally figured it out.
From the beginning, it was a trap.
Now that the truth is out, there's no need to pretend anymore.
Jiusu pulled off his sticky beard and stuck it on the table, his expression arrogant and contemptuous, and asked calmly: "Boss Shao, did you call Jiusu?"
Suddenly, Shao Jie put down his pipe.
Kneel on the ground hurriedly.
"My humble eyesight is poor, please forgive me, sir."
I dared not vent the anger in my heart.
Originally, he wanted to take the initiative so that he could question Jiusu why he lied, whether he had other motives, or whether he wanted to go against the Shao family.
How big a wave can a woman make?
Taking the initiative is not as good as using power to suppress others.
Jiusu took out a face towel to remove her makeup. She asked, "Where's Meiling?"
His hair was loose and he had a dagger tied to his boot.
Shao Jie was shocked when he saw all this. He couldn't help asking, "Mei Ling is just a dancer."
Jiusu had been in the ancient world for so long that he had a bad temper. His voice was tinged with murderous intent as he asked, "Where is she?"
Seeing that he was hesitant, he quickly drew his sword.
When the blood dripped from his neck, death approached briefly. Shao Jie, sweating profusely, knelt on the ground and said in a vague voice.
"In, in Prince Chang's house."
Jiusu drew back his sword, his eyes sullen: "Lead the way!"
Shao Jie was leading the way in front, he was worried that nothing would happen to Mei Ling, and he also thought that Prince Chang would definitely deal with Jiusu.
A prince and a third-rank female official.
"It's right inside."
From the room, a woman's scream of pain was heard. If she wasn't in extreme pain, she wouldn't have screamed that way.
Jiusu pushed the door open and walked in.
Mei Ling was tied up.
The white undershirt was also stained red with blood.
The three people in the room looked over at the same time. Mei Ling was soaked with sweat, and her dull eyes suddenly brightened up. She murmured, "Master Jia..."
The previous makeup has been wiped off.
Her hair was loose and her face was unmade up.
This kind of Mr. Jia seems even more charming.
Prince Chang paused, put down his pipe, and said, "Miss Jiu, it's been a long time since we last met. Did you miss me? Did you break into my bedroom with the intention of pushing me onto the bed?"
ill.
Jiusu cursed in his heart.
She said politely, "Your Highness, you are joking. I am afraid that Mei Ling will contradict you, so I came here in a hurry to apologize. Please allow me to take her away."
Prince Chang guessed that even a hero cannot resist the temptation of a beautiful woman.
But unexpectedly, besides heroes, beauties are also sad.
He raised his eyebrows and said disdainfully, "What if I won't let you go? Jiusu, do you want to offend me? Or, please beg me to spend the night with you and take this dancer with you."
Mei Ling shook her head and shed two lines of tears.
"No, I am of humble status and not worthy of your Excellency's doing this. Please leave."
The pain in the body is a thousand times greater.
When you are deceived and treated sincerely by someone, the tangled emotions are like ants gnawing at your heart, sour and numb, unable to love or hate.
Jiusu asked, "Is this the atmosphere in the imperial court?"
That's the same excuse again! Prince Chang clenched his fist and slammed it on the wooden table. Yun Yong immediately drew his sword. The tense atmosphere was exactly the same as before.
As long as the prince commands, his sword will pierce the dancer's throat.
Prince Chang cursed, "Do you think I dare not kill you?"
Jiusu clapped his hands and said without any fear.
"I just don't know what crime the prince will be charged with for killing an imperial official. Will the emperor, the people, and the border soldiers blame you?"
Prince Chang couldn't get impulsive at all, could he kill him?
I can, but I don’t dare.
"Are you challenging my bottom line?"
Jiusu took a half step back and said in a gentle tone, "I have no intention of offending Your Highness. Please be kind and allow me to take Mei Ling away from here. I will be very grateful."
It was quiet all around, and the only sounds were the sound of rain and sobbing.
Time passes by little by little.
The agreed time is almost here.
If Ajing and Lord Song really brought people here, things would get worse, and their relationship with Prince Chang would be exposed.
Prince Chang asked, "How do you plan to express your gratitude to me?"
Jiusu looked at the pipe still emitting smoke and said, "Your humble servant may not tell the emperor that I saw you using this thing in Lingcheng."
"threaten?"
"How dare I? It's a deal."
The prince's secret was exchanged for the dancer, and it was clear at a glance who got the advantage.
The tea in the porcelain cup was filled.
Wisps of hot air were coming out.
Prince Chang said, "After I finish this cup of tea, I will launch a large-scale manhunt throughout the palace. If you don't escape, don't blame me for being ruthless."
This cup of tea will probably take only three minutes.
Jiusu gritted her teeth. She no longer hesitated, cut the rope, and helped the weak Mei Ling escape. But as soon as they left the yard, Mei Ling's legs went weak. "Is your leg injured?"
Mei Ling just shook her head and chuckled.
"Sir, leave me alone and go."
