Chapter 146
"Driver, turn the car around..."

Seeing this, Nan Gongxun narrowed his eyes, and told the coachman.

Hearing this, the coachman immediately pulled the horse's rein and changed the road.

"Master, you have to be the master of your servant! Last night, I didn't know that it was the killer who sent someone to kill this servant. If Chan'er hadn't heard the movement and came to find this servant, I'm afraid that this person would have already killed her! Master, you Let the servants be the masters!..."

Inside the Hou Mansion, Second Aunt said while wiping her tears.

Zhu Jing had just returned from the river bank and was sitting in the study.

He was already in a bad mood, and with the snow falling in the sky, his mood became even heavier. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe that Chu Hong would be such a person, but he had seen it with his own eyes, so he had to Believe it, however, Chu Hong was executed, he will inevitably feel sad!Originally, he wanted to go back to the Hou's mansion for a while, but he didn't expect to hear the second aunt's cry as soon as he came back.

This made him even more irritable, and waved his hand:
"It's just a small thief who makes a big fuss. The old man has already sent someone to investigate. It's not too embarrassing. He's yelling all day long. Don't cry here. Go out, and the old man needs to be quiet!"

The crying second aunt suddenly stopped crying when she heard the words, and quietly retreated out.

The second aunt had just left, but the guard at the door seemed hesitant to speak. Zhu Jing glanced at him out of the corner of his eyes, and said impatiently:

"Speak up if you have something to say, don't act like you can't shit."

"..."

The guard has been with Zhu Jing for so many years, and he has never heard him say such a bad word, so he couldn't help but choke, but after thinking about it, he still said:

"Actually, the villain also felt that what happened last night was a bit weird! Although the Hou's mansion is not as well-guarded as the royal family, which thief has the courage to come to the Hou's mansion? I heard that the prince was angry with a sword a few days ago. He rushed to the Changcui Pavilion, saying he was going to kill Second Aunt! I don't know why, but he was angry with a woman, this prince seems really stingy!"

The guard added fuel and vinegar, and then retreated cautiously.

After hearing his words, Zhu Jing became thoughtful.

Besides, after the second aunt returned to the Cuicui Pavilion from the study, Zhu Zichan rushed up to greet her and asked:

"Mother, that bitch Chu Hong has been soaked in a pig cage, you should be happy, why are you so sad?"

"Your mother, I also want to be happy, but can I be happy? Have you forgotten the masked man last night? Oh, I almost scared your mother out of my courage!"

The second aunt said exaggeratedly.

"But, didn't he succeed? Mother, don't think about it so much. In the future, it will definitely be fine if you ask father to send a few more people to protect mother."

Zhu Zichan comforted the second aunt and said.

"Hmph, there is nothing better than killing the person who wants to kill me! In that case, the worries of the future will be completely solved!"

The second aunt said bitterly.

"Mother, do you already know who is going to kill you?"

Zhu Zichan asked.

"Did you forget that the prince came to the Cuicui Pavilion with a sword that day? You forgot, but mother remembers it all!"

Second Aunt gave Zhu Zichan a blank look and said.

"You mean, that person was also the prince last night?"

Zhu Zichan's eyeballs rolled sharply, and she asked in doubt.

"Of course it's him. Is there anyone else besides him? He has a deep affection for that little bitch. You got that little bitch into the hands of King Ji, and I went to dig the house in Dongliyuan. Of course he Want to kill us to avenge that little bitch!"

Second Aunt analyzed.

"Well, what mother said is true!"

Zhu Zichan thought for a while, then nodded.

"You said, if we had unified the front with the King of Ji one day earlier, how could we be so passive? But now half a year has passed, and there is no progress at all! Zichan, you have to hurry up! Now the King of Ji has passed away. When he reaches the age of marriage, the emperor will give him a kiss in a short time, if we don't hurry up, we may not have many chances!"

As Second Aunt spoke, she blamed Zhu Zichan again.

"Mother, what does my daughter want? It's not like you don't know what to use to fight with the King of Ji. He has no interests, and he will not stand up for us. Originally, I wanted to rely on my father's influence , negotiated conditions with him, but father was still unwilling to make a statement. If this continues, I am afraid that King Ji will lose patience with our family! He wants to get married, so what can I do? Dou, the concubine daughter of those famous nobles? As a prince, if we can’t produce something, how can he marry a concubine as a concubine? Even if he marries, it’s just a side concubine!”

Zhu Zichan frowned as she spoke.

"In the final analysis, he still doesn't have you in his heart! If he does, how can he have so many conditions?"

The second aunt was not polite, she said to the point.

"Yes, yes, he doesn't have me in his heart, only that bitch Zhu Zixin! Now that she is imprisoned by him, he is not in the mood to look at other women again. No matter how my daughter behaves, I'm afraid King Ji will not be tempted either!"

Zhu Zichan also said angrily.

"Zhu Zixin! If that's the case, let's cut the grass and root out the root! As long as she dies, King Ji will not be fascinated by her. Then, you will have a chance!"

The second aunt thought for a while, and said with a stern expression.

"However, we don't know where she is hidden by King Ji now, so how can we find out?"

Zhu Zichan said.

"Of course you don't know, but as long as you have money, are you afraid that no one will do things for us?"

The second aunt turned around, went to the cage and took out a bag of silver, weighed it, and said:

"I heard that there is an organization of assassins in the capital called Wuyingtang. It is full of top masters, and all of them are very good at light kungfu! Moreover, there is no case that they have handled that cannot be solved! My mother, I will go to them !"

After speaking, the second aunt went to the door.

"mother……"

Zhu Zichan was dumbfounded. She didn't expect her mother to know all of this. Thinking about it again, Zhu Zichan sneered. I have to say, this method is really good!Thinking of this, she hastily chased after her...

On the small island, the snow was falling heavily, and it was getting bigger and bigger, and soon it was covered with silver, and it was completely white.

Time flies so fast, half a year has passed in a blink of an eye.

Looking at the vast expanse of white snowflakes, Zhu Zixin's heart had already flown to an unknown corner.

After staying on this deserted island for so long, she counted every sunrise and lived for a full 180 days.

During these 180 days, she thought of running away all the time, but she could see countless pairs of eyes staring at her all the time.

She was thinking about leaving all the time, but she was so weak that she would be exhausted and drowsy if she moved a little.

She knew in her heart that all of this was done by Nan Gongxun. He gave her medicine, a colorless and tasteless medicine. She has been looking for it, and she has been looking for it... At first, she thought it was in the diet, so, She went on a hunger strike for three days, but the situation did not improve. On the fourth day, she had to start eating again in order to survive.

Later, she thought it was on the clothes, but it was not.

Later, she thought that there was something wrong with the incense in the room, so she refused to let the servant girl smoke it, but the situation remained the same.

Today, Nan Gongxun came less often, but he still kept his promise, and would never force her to do anything she didn't like, except of course, to leave here.

He is really good to her, he has special servants to take care of food and daily life, as long as she asks, he will satisfy her.

Zhu Zixin knew that this was really rare for him.

It seemed that he was indeed here to fulfill his promise!It's just that everything he did meant nothing to Zhu Zixin.

She can't forget that bloody pig, she can't forget!

Now, he usually comes to this island once every ten days, coming in the middle of the night and leaving in the early morning.

He always talked to himself, knowing that Zhu Zixin would not talk to him, but he would still say, tell her what happened in the capital, tell her, which family's sweet-scented osmanthus cake is delicious, which family's cook is superb, tell her She, the jewelry of that family in the capital is exquisite. Of course, every time he said these things, he would always give her these things along with it.What he gave the most were head accessories, hairpins, bracelets, beads, veneers... everything.

He is really changing, Zhu Zixin can feel it, whether it's hypocrisy or acting...

He said a lot, but the only thing he didn't say was Nan Gongxi. Zhu Zixin knew that he did it on purpose. He deliberately didn't mention him in front of her. His purpose was nothing more than to make her forget him.

During this period, Zhu Zixin was often bored. Apart from reading to pass the time, she had nothing to do and would also do some things.What I do most is wind chimes.She hung them in the yard where she lived and listened to the jingle of the wind blowing through them.The wind on the island is very strong, and the doors and windows that often blow creak.It was very noisy to listen to, and the sound of the wind chimes covered the unpleasant sound, which would also make her feel at ease.

Later, it turned out to be a habit of hers, she didn't like to talk to anyone, including Jill who had been serving her all the time!Jier is good, and she is also Nan Gongxun's person. She doesn't trust them from the bottom of her heart.She missed her Xiao Cui, and was very worried about her, wondering how she would live now after she left.

She never gave up hope. There are many words of encouragement hidden in those beautiful wind chimes. She is afraid that if the days like this go too long, she will lose the ability to survive.

This kind of pampered, parasite-like life is the easiest to make people lose self-confidence, like a gentle trap, they will gradually adapt, and they will be afraid to leave this kind of life.

Zhu Zixin was afraid that she would be able to leave one day, but she didn't know where to go. Therefore, she never gave up looking for the cause and object that caused her poisoning.
