Chapter 125 Escape
Nangong Xi asked pretending not to know, her expression was full of concern.

"Alas! The family is unlucky, it's better not to mention it!"

Zhu Jing waved his hands and sighed.

"Hey, Lord Hou treats me as an outsider again? If you have anything to do, you may as well just say it. If I can help you, I won't refuse."

Seeing that Zhu Jing didn't say anything, Nangong Xi hurriedly said again.

If he didn't say anything, how could he come up with something?

Sure enough, as soon as these words were said, Zhu Jing put down his teacup upon hearing the words, and looked at Nangongxi with sharp eyes.He was always vigilant, and he became alert when there was any movement. The last time he raised a dead soldier, he was covered up by his well-designed rescue. The emperor rewarded him with some gold and silver.

He was afraid that something would happen to Nan Gongxi this time, and he felt that it would be better to let it go. Although this matter was a family scandal to him, it was better than Nan Gongxi turning over old accounts with the emperor.Although he was lucky enough to escape last time, he didn't have such good luck every time.

Thought of here
, Zhu Jing smiled awkwardly, and said: "Some things happened at home. It's not that the lower officials don't want to talk about it, but it's really hard to talk about it."

"So it's a family matter?"

Nangong Xi pretended to be puzzled and asked, and then said:

"Oh, the king shouldn't be involved in family affairs, but seeing how pitiful Miss San is, I can't bear it. If Lord Hou speaks out, maybe this king can relieve Lord Hou's worries."

"Well, the most poisonous thing in a woman's heart is that the second aunt hated the next official and continued her strings, so she sent someone to tie up the new wife and wanted to murder her. Fortunately, Zixin saved her, and the next official locked up the vicious lady in a fit of anger. Get up, and you must be punished severely in another day."

Zhu Jing said helplessly, after finishing speaking, he couldn't help sighing again.

"So that's the case, no wonder the third lady is frowning! Alas! I didn't expect such a thing to happen in the house. The second aunt did not think carefully, but it is understandable. Hou Ye, can you sell me to save face? For the time being Let the second aunt go first? This king can't bear to see the third lady's appearance, you don't know, how did such a lively child become like that?..."

When Nan Gongxi said these words, he felt disgusted to himself. As a prince, when had he ever talked to someone like this, but when he thought of Zhu Zixin's whereabouts now unknown, he couldn't calm down in his heart.Therefore, he agreed to Zhu Zichan's condition at the expense of his own face, and came to ask Zhu Jing to release his second aunt.

"Prince... It stands to reason that the rules of the Hou Mansion can't be just like this. The new lady just came through the door, and the second aunt is so arrogant and domineering. Fortunately, she is fine. If you don't show her some color, I'm afraid it will cause big troubles in the future." The trouble came... no..."

Zhu Jing wondered why, he didn't understand why the prince would intercede for an aunt, although he said it was for Chan'er's sake, but he didn't need to come forward for such a trivial matter, right?However, since the prince has spoken, he has to give others a little face no matter what.However, before he could finish his words, Nan Gongxi unexpectedly said anxiously:
"Then chop off a finger as a warning to others! Isn't this kind of punishment enough?"

Zhu Jing became even more dumb when he heard this, but it was considered a step down for him. Besides, thinking about it, this kind of punishment should be the best for Second Aunt!At least she had saved her life.

Therefore, Zhu Jing got up and cupped his hands, saying: "Your Majesty obeys."

Seeing that Zhu Jing agreed, Nan Gongxi put down the teacup, and said goodbye immediately: "Then I won't bother you, goodbye!"

After finishing speaking, he hurried back to the Prince's Mansion.

Zhu Jing sent him to the door, looked at Nan Gongxi's back and pondered for a long time, then turned around and returned to the mansion, and immediately ordered someone to cut off Second Aunt's finger.

On this side, the second aunt was dragged out by several servants, and she howled like a pig: "Master, please spare your life! Master, I beg you, for the sake of serving you for many years, please spare this servant!  … ..."

Zhu Jing stood there quietly all the time, watching Second Aunt being dragged past him, she reached out to tug at the hem of his clothes, but he took a step back to let her go.

"Go, it's just a finger, it's your luck if you didn't take your life!"

Zhu Jing's voice was cold and chilling.

After hearing these words, Second Aunt really didn't cry anymore, until the blood splashed on the ground, and a broken finger jumped on the ground, she heard her almost howling scream again: "Ah... !"

The sound spread far, far away.

Besides, after Nan Gongxun left, Zhu Zixin started to cut the rope again. Since the rope in her hand was quickly cut off by her, the rest was easy.

Soon, Zhu Zixin untied all the ropes on her body. She carefully walked to the window against the wall, poked a hole in the window and looked out. The two guards stood straight outside the door.

It seemed that going through the door would not work, and it was daytime, so they could easily be spotted.

However, the window...Zhu Zixin sneaked close to the wall and walked to the opposite window. When he opened the window, a gust of warm wind with a fishy smell rushed towards him. He stretched out his head and looked, heaven, outside It is the abyss of ten thousand feet, and the sound of the waves beating the table below is clearly discernible.

It turns out that this is not the real Prince Ji's Mansion!Although she has never been to Prince Ji's Mansion, she also understands that Prince Ji's Mansion should be in the capital, but here, it is clearly outside the city, and it is so close to the sea, so it must not be in the capital anymore.

Thinking of this question, Zhu Zixin immediately decided not to leave, but to investigate this place first, because she had heard from Nan Gongxi that Nan Gongxun had a secret base, maybe even here.

Back in the room, Zhu Zixin shouted to the door: "Brother guard, I'm thirsty, can you get me a glass of water?"

Outside the door, a guard said: "Drink it yourself!"

"My hands and feet are tied, I can't drink by myself!"

While talking, Zhu Zixin slowly moved towards the back of the door...

"It's so troublesome! I don't know why King Ji brought a woman over!"

The guard pushed the door open and walked in while chattering.However, as soon as he entered the door, he heard a "boom" and felt a pain in the back of his head. The man reached out to touch it and turned his face to see who hit him, but before he could turn his head, he responded fell to the ground.

Another heard the sound and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Brother guard! Brother guard! Come here, come quickly, this guard seems to have suffered from some kind of illness, and he fainted as soon as he entered the door!"

Inside the room, Zhu Zixin's voice continued to be heard.

Another guard outside the door rushed in after hearing the words, and the ending was naturally the same as the previous one.

Zhu Zixin dragged the two of them into the house, took off the clothes of the thinner one and put them on himself, closed the door again, and then ran out secretly.

Unexpectedly, this place is so big and there are houses everywhere. Zhu Zixin ran around like a headless chicken. Apart from having to avoid the guards who passed by from time to time, she secretly looked at several houses very carefully, but nothing happened. Find out what's the problem.

Just when she was about to give up, an open space not far away caught her attention, because there were many people gathered in that open space, and it seemed that they were training soldiers!
Thinking of this, Zhu Zixin hurriedly bowed his waist and approached those people through the cover. Finally, in a bush 20 meters away from them, Zhu Zixin hid himself and looked at those people.

At this time, they were training their archery skills. A mighty and sturdy man was riding a horse, with a bow and arrow on the horse's back.

These people seem to have practiced for a long time, and all of them have extraordinary skills.

"It really is here!"

Zhu Zixin said in his heart, intending to go back and tell the prince at this time, so that he can quickly come and wipe out this secret organization of Nan Gongxun.

However, at this moment, her ears moved suddenly, and she felt that someone was approaching her. That person was so good at lightness that he was already very close to her, and she didn't realize it.Without looking back, Zhu Zixin quietly pulled out the dagger from his boots, and then turned around and stabbed at the man with lightning speed.

Unexpectedly, the man seemed to have been on guard for a long time, and dodged with a backflip, and then Nan Gongxun's deep voice came over.

"Amazing skill!"

After finishing speaking, his eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "I didn't expect you to escape here!"

As soon as he was talking, he rushed to Zhu Zixin's shoulder, Zhu Zixin hurriedly dodged, but he didn't make another move, but walked towards Zhu Zixin slowly, and said in his mouth: "If you don't sneak out, I will let you go back today, but now, since you know my secret, it is not so easy to leave like this! It just so happens that this king originally had some friendship with me, and from then on, I can take you with me By my side, when the king of Japan sits on the dragon chair, you will be my concubine of Nan Gongxun. Concubine, what do you think of this idea?"

He stepped forward step by step, spitting out each word from his mouth, every single word seemed to hit Zhu Zixin's heart, making her have to back away in fear.

However, her stubbornness and unyielding character determined that she would not surrender like this person in front of her. Even though she was at a disadvantage now, she still caught him off guard and said, "Don't even think about it! Even if you win the world by despicable means So what? I, Zhu Zixin, will never submit to your lust! If you take it by force, I will die in front of you immediately!"

After speaking, Zhu Zixin raised the dagger in her hand and placed it on her throat.

"You... you unruly little leopard! Well, I promise you that I won't touch you until I get the throne, but you also have to promise that if I do win the throne, if I have the strength to make you willing If you fall in love with this king, you will sit on my Nan Gongxun's concubine, how about it?"

Unexpectedly, Nan Gongxun gave in because of his threats, Zhu Zixin was a little surprised.

She was already desperate just now, knowing that he had always had unreasonable thoughts about her, and now that he was on his territory, with so many of his subordinates, she knew that she would not be able to escape no matter what, the actions just now, although It was said that it was to intimidate Nan Gongxun, but from his behavior in the morning, he guessed that he had developed feelings for him, and he made a risky attempt. In fact, it was also an idea of ​​success or success.

If her innocence is not guaranteed, she naturally understands what it means in such an era. She doesn't want to be spurned or trampled on by others. Living like that, she might as well die!

Unexpectedly, she actually won the bet!
