Empress in Golden Age - C997
Ah Zi was laughed by her and said angrily, “you talk the most.” After that, she kowtowed to Shen Xijun and said gratefully, “I thank you for your kindness on behalf of my mother.”
“Good!” Shen Xijun patted her hand with a smile. After Huang Jiu got the things, he wrote the instructions and handed them to ah Zi. Wen Yan said, “if you don’t trust your mother, stay at home for one night and come back tomorrow. There are Alan and Huang Jiu waiting for you in our palace. You don’t have to worry.”
Purple moved straight tears, choked: “master, you are very good.”
Shen Xijun wiped away her tears and said with a smile, “OK, go quickly.”
“Well.” After a Zi saluted Shen Xijun again, she left the Changxin hall with something in her hand. Looking at her back, Shen Xijun said with emotion: “I hope her mother is OK, otherwise this girl will be sad.”
Alan said with a smile: “with the blessing of her master, ah Zi’s mother will surely be able to turn the bad into the good and live a long life.”
“I hope so.” Shen Xijun never dreamed that this farewell would be forever
A Zi’s family lived at the end of the east city, dozens of miles away. After she left the palace, she hired a carriage. She was also lucky. Soon after she left the palace, she met a carriage passing by. Usually, there were few people near the imperial city.
The wheels of the car kept rolling on the slippery ground, circle after circle, and the wind and snow became more and more heavy. Fortunately, the curtain was thick, and after the two sides were tied, there was basically no wind leaking in. It was not too cold in the car, but it was impossible to lift the curtain to look outside.
Ah Zi was eager to return home and kept urging the driver to hurry up. It was strange to say that although the ten mile road was not short, it was not long. It took only one or two hours to walk on weekdays, but the carriage had been driving for more than an hour, and it had not arrived yet.
“Coachman, are you here?” Ah Zi asked across the curtain.
“Soon, girl, don’t worry.” The driver’s reply as like as two peas did not change, but this time, purple was suspicious, and quietly unwrapped the car curtain beside him. Although it was filled with snow and wind, his vision was unknown, but he could still see it clearly. Both sides were mountains, and even personal films were not.
This This is just outside the city!
“Didn’t I tell you about Liuzi street in Dongcheng? What are you doing out of town? Stop! Stop In the face of a Zi’s rebuke, the coachman not only didn’t stop, but whipped the horse to run faster.
“Stop the car!” Ren a Zi was so scolded that the coachman refused to stop. She was so surprised and anxious that she untied the front curtain and wanted to grab the reins. At this time, a touch of ice, which was a bit colder than the snow, lay across her neck. “Go back and sit, or don’t blame me for being rude!”
A Zi looked down stiffly, a sharp dagger against his neck, believe that as long as the hand holding the dagger handle a little hard, you can take your life.
Ah Zi didn’t dare to act rashly and said in a trembling voice: “you What do you want to do? ”
“Sit down and I’ll take you to a place.” The coachman said coldly, sweeping away his honest appearance.
“Well, I won’t move, and you don’t mess around. It’s against the law to kill people.” A Zi Yiyan sat down, his eyes always fixed on the dagger in the driver’s hand, “you catch me just to seek wealth, I give you all the silver, as well as bird’s nest, ginseng and silk. These are valuable things. You can get 100 Liang silver if you take any of them.” Seeing that the driver didn’t speak, she said, “I’m the Queen’s man. If you kill me, the queen will never give up. She will find you.”
This time, the coachman had a reaction and grinned: “I not only know that you are the Queen’s person, but also know that you have been with her for many years.”
Ah Zi was surprised. Listening to this tone, he clearly intended to come for himself, not to rob money. The encounter outside Zhaoming palace was not a coincidence, but how did he know that he would be out of the palace at this time?
“Who are you?”
“I’ll find out later.” With these words, the coachman no longer spoke, drove the carriage all the way, and finally stopped in front of a humble hut at the foot of the mountain.
“Go in.” The coachman pushed ah Zi into the room. The room was built of wooden boards with thatch on the top. It was very simple. There was a small room next to it, separated by a curtain. It should be the kitchen. There are bows and arrows on the wall and some animal skins. It seems that they are the places where the hunters lived when they were hunting. But now it’s freezing and the animals are all huddled in the cave, so they can’t catch them at all, so they didn’t come to live.
After the driver closed the door, he approached ah Zi step by step. The latter was forced to retreat until he reached the wall and had nowhere to retreat. She said in a trembling voice: “you What are you going to do? ”
The coachman played with the whip for driving horses and said slowly, “just ask a few questions. As long as you answer honestly, I’ll let you go immediately. If you don’t answer…” He waved the whip and said with a sneer, “it’s not good to smoke this thing on you.”
Ah Zi swallowed her saliva and tried to calm herself down. “Just ask.”
“Good.” The driver nodded and said, “what did the queen say when she went to see the king of Qi in prison?”
Ah Zi didn’t expect that what he was going to ask was this. She was stunned and asked, “what do you want to do with this? What does it have to do with you? “The coachman lifted his eyes and yelled, “it’s your turn to ask me, please.”
Ah Zi bit her lip, and her mind turned like a wheel. For a moment, she said: “after the master went in, he bandaged the wound for the king of Qi, asked about the dispute with the prince, and then asked for a few words to leave. It’s nothing special.”
The coachman stared at her without saying a word. His eyes were undisguised suspicion and violence, in sharp contrast to his honest and honest face.
You can’t judge a person by his appearance. That’s what I mean.
After a while, the coachman grinned grimly. “It seems that you’re going to have a toast instead of a drink. Well, this whip hasn’t tasted human blood for a long time. It’s just to drive you away.”
With these words, the whip fell on ah Zi, the thick cotton padded clothes were immediately broken, and the wadding came out from the crevasse and flew everywhere, which was a bit like the snow outside.
“Hiss!” Ah Zi took a cool breath, even though she could feel the pain through the cotton padded clothes. She didn’t dare to imagine what kind of pain it was to smoke directly on the skin.
“Say it or not?”
“I’ve said all you want me to say. I really don’t know what else to say.” At the end of the speech, another whip was whipped on him. This time, the coachman obviously deliberately picked the place, so he whipped at the original place, losing the protection of cotton wadding. This whip is much more painful than the original one.
A Zi can almost hear the voice of skin and flesh blooming, hot pain, but she is just the answer – no comment.
