Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 535 Failure
From time to time, shrill screams came from outside, and they reached Xia Zijin's ears one after another.The maid who had been serving Qinglian for a long time couldn't help feeling a little unbearable. She raised her eyes to Xia Zijin, and opened her mouth to intercede for Qinglian.

However, before she could open her mouth, Xia Zijin raised her eyelids, gave her a faint look, a three-point sneer appeared on the corner of her lips, and licked her own lips, with anticipation in her eyes.

This kind of punishment is nothing to Qinglian at all, it is just to arouse her sympathy by calling it so miserable, but it is a pity that this trick is useless to her.Gradually, the sound outside became weaker, until finally, it became silent.

A quarter of an hour later, the guards dragged Qing Lian, who had already passed out, with her skin and flesh bruised.Xia Zijin saw that Qinglian was covered in sweat from the beating, and her hair was sticking to her face. She waved her hand, and immediately a guard came out, came in with a bucket of cold water, and poured it on Qinglian.

The maid looked at this scene, her heart trembled, she opened her mouth and knelt down to Xia Zijin, "Princess, Miss Qinglian..."

"Huh?" Xia Zijin snorted softly, raised the corners of her lips, and looked at her with a half-smile, "What? After staying here for a while, you even forgot about your master?"

After being stared at by her like this, the servant girl suddenly felt that a fierce beast was staring at her. She lowered her head involuntarily, trembling all over, putting away her thoughts of pleading for Qinglian, "I dare not."

Qinglian was splashed with a bucket of water in a coma, her body curled up unconsciously, her whole body trembled, her long eyelashes trembled twice, she slowly opened her eyes, and saw a thin figure kneeling in front of her, As soon as he turned his head, he saw Xia Zijin's cold eyes.

Xia Shengqing sat behind Xia Zijin, holding her palm with one hand, and the murderous intent was evident in her dark eyes.Qinglian lowered her head, her eyelashes were constantly trembling, revealing her flustered mood at the moment.

"Qinglian, aren't you going to tell the truth?" The situation in the capital is tense now. It is very risky for her to leave the capital at this critical moment. If she continues to delay like this, it will be even more troublesome.

Qinglian let out a miserable laugh, raised her head, her eyes, which were as clear as glass, were filled with cold air, and then she closed her eyes under Xia Zijin's gaze, as if she was letting herself be dealt with.

Seeing her like this, Xia Zijin laughed back angrily, "Okay, Qinglian, you think that if you don't tell me, this princess will just don't ask, but your brother is afraid that he will not be able to live in peace underground."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qinglian endured humiliation and endured so much pain just to avenge her brother, but now that Xia Zijin talked about her brother, she couldn't help it, and her face that was pretending to be calm immediately cracked Open a gap.

It was because he knew the importance of the former leader of Kunsha to Qinglian that Xia Zijin opened his mouth, and now seeing her looking at him angrily, with a look of being hooked, he involuntarily raised the corners of his lips, "Isn't it possible? Qinglian, you think you are avenging your brother, but in fact you are just trying to satisfy your own selfish desires."

Qinglian gritted her teeth and glared at her viciously, "You are talking nonsense, I am avenging my brother!"

"Does your brother need your revenge?" Seeing her hysterical look, Xia Zijin slightly raised the corners of her lips, and looked at her with a half-smile, "Kunsha is an organization that served the former royal family, so it shouldn't survive In Dalai, your elder brother was the leader of Kunsha before, so he was probably ready to dedicate himself, and he also showed that he swore allegiance to the previous dynasty."

"You know Kunsha?" Qinglian lost her voice in shock, she turned her head to look at Xia Shengqing, and then at Xia Zijin, with confusion in her eyes, "Then do you know the people around you..."

"My princess knows that the orphan of the former royal family, the last prince, is also the only surviving prince. I don't need to worry about this." Xia Zijin spit out the words from her mouth, shaking her mind. , I was speechless for a long time.

Qinglian was stunned for a while before raising her head complicatedly, "Does Your Highness know what I'm doing?"

"Of course I know." Xia Zijin didn't care about her eyes at all, and licked the corners of her lips, "It's you, who knows that your brother would rather accept punishment and lose his life than leave Kunsha, this loyalty, you have to personally Trampling?"

Her words were fierce, and she whizzed straight at Qinglian's face like a sharp sword. Qinglian's face turned pale involuntarily, and she couldn't help but clenched her hands on the ground. Her expression kept changing, obviously she was thinking. Xia Zijin's words.

Seeing that her thoughts began to follow her, Xia Zijin rubbed the palms hanging in the sleeves together, and leaned lazily on the high-backed chair, waiting for her answer.Xia Shengqing's eyes kept falling on Qinglian, and there was a trace of tension hidden in her eyes.

Xia Zijin turned her head and saw him like this, and patted the back of his hand to reassure him.

After a long while, Qinglian raised her head, and sneered as if she had seen through her scheme, "Princess Mingzhu is so eloquent, no wonder so many people are deceived, so what if my brother is so loyal? Was it because of that poisonous woman Yue Jingan?" Killed!"

Qinglian's words showed deep-seated hatred, just like Zigui crying blood, and when the words fell, Xia Zijin spit out a mouthful of blood, Xia Zijin looked at her like this, and sighed, "Qinglian, why did you ever think of you when you did this?" How does my brother feel?"

"Yue Jing'an is now the hope of the revival of the previous dynasty. If you kill her like this, I'm afraid you will be blamed by your brother if you go underground in the future." His expression was constantly struggling with her words, obviously hesitant, he clenched Xia Shengqing's palm and shook his head.

Xia Shengqing forcibly suppressed the anger rising from the bottom of his heart. Although his relationship with Yue Jing'an was tense because of her private attack and hurt Xia Zijin, Yue Jing'an was not something Qinglian could insult.

If Yue Jing'an hadn't been poisoned by her poison, he would have drawn his sword and killed her immediately.

Qinglian's heart was constantly trembling by what she said, she didn't care about whether the previous dynasty was not, but what Xia Zijin said was right, her brother's wish was indeed to restore the previous dynasty.

Her heart seemed to be pulled by a rope, one side was reason, the other side was emotion, which made her not know how to choose.

Seeing that she had shaken, Xia Zijin was not in a hurry, took a sip of the still warm tea on the table, and waited for her answer.

After a while, Qinglian raised her head with red eyes, gritted her teeth and looked at her, "Even if I give up my revenge, will my brother be at peace?"

"Naturally." Seeing what she wanted to hear from her mouth, Xia Zijin grinned and continued to confuse her, staring at her with dark and distinct eyes, "If you give up revenge, you will face her in the future." Fuxing, even if your brother saw it underground, he would be proud of it."

Qinglian's expression was in a trance, and she murmured as if possessed by a demon, "Proud..."

Just as Xia Zijin was waiting for her to open her mouth to hand over the method of contacting Gu poison, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes were red, she looked at Xia Zijin viciously, as if she was about to bite her, and sneered three times, "Bah !Princess Pearl, do you think that this will make me give up? Don’t think so!”

Seeing her waking up at this time, Xia Zijin's expectations were overturned, and a wave of disappointment flooded her heart, and she suddenly became irritable, "Come on! Drag him down and beat this princess until she is willing." Let's stop."

She didn't expect Qinglian's obsession to be so deep, but she underestimated Qinglian.Xia Shengqing saw her frowning tightly, and stretched out her hand to embrace her in his arms, "Zijin, don't worry, just find another way."

Only then did Xia Zijin recover from the irritability, glanced at him, and nodded, "Sheng Qing, it seems that I have to find a way to force the Gu worms out."

Shaking Qinglian's heart was a method that Xia Zijin had thought of before coming, but obviously, this method had no effect. This point has been confirmed by Qinglian.

Xia Zijin looked up at Xia Shengqing, smiled, stood up, and whispered something in his ear.

Early in the morning of the second day, Zhenwen led an old doctor into the mansion, and entered Xia Zijin's house secretly along the way.The maid serving Qinglian watched this scene, frowned involuntarily, turned and entered the room.

In the room, Qinglian was lying on the couch, her buttocks were ripped apart, and when she turned over slightly, the wound burst open, and blood oozes out along the gauze. The wound won't heal."

A sincere smile appeared on Qinglian's pale face, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

The servant girl waved her hands again and again, "Miss, you've beaten your servant. It's just that the girl, the princess, is not unreasonable. Why did you make her so angry?"

When Qinglian was being interrogated, Xia Zijin deliberately shunned all the maids in the room, including Xin'er, leaving only her and Xia Shengqing, so the maid didn't know why Qinglian angered Xia Zijin.

Qinglian couldn't help but smiled wryly. It was her fault that she used Xia Zijin to enter Miyamoto first, and then used tricks to force her to save herself. Now that she found out that she was cheated, it's no wonder that Xia Zijin was in a bad mood.

For this matter, she was sorry for Xia Zijin first, but revenge for her brother is the only pillar of her life in this world, so she will not violate her heart just because of this idea of ​​guilt, Yue Jing'an must pay for her brother's life.

A cold light flashed in Qinglian's lowered eyes, she raised her head, and suddenly saw Xia Zijin from the window sending an old man out with a smile on her face. The old man was obviously a doctor with a medicine box on his back.

For some reason, she suddenly felt uneasy in her heart, as if the old doctor would do something that would make her fall short.Just as she was thinking about it, she noticed a gaze falling behind her. Qinglian raised her head ignorantly, and saw the undisguised disdain and pride on Xia Zijin's face.

This expression, like a sharp sword, pierced straight into her heart, causing panic to rise in her chest involuntarily.
