Chapter 172: Ji Yuqing's death

Ji Lingxue's three questions, the words like needles, poked Ji Yuqing's heart straight, Ji Yuqing's pupils shrank, she swallowed her saliva, and said with no confidence: "You... don't have any evidence, how can you slander you? What I did... You are looking for me to vent your dissatisfaction. If you are a little unwilling, how can you go to the prince and tell me that you are looking for me... What is the matter?"
Ji Lingxue's eyes were slightly cold, and the hand holding the short knife tightened. The sharp blade cut through Ji Yuqing's skin, and the bright red blood drop across the blade fell to the ground with a tick.
A layer of cold sweat oozes from Ji Yuqing's forehead, and Ji Lingxue's cold eyes appear in the bronze mirror, just like an ecstatic messenger from hell.
Ji Yuqing said with a trembling voice: "Ji Lingxue...sister...you...you have something to say again..."
Ji Lingxue snorted coldly: "I didn't have a sharp mouth just now. Why are you trembling now? You'd better think clearly before speaking. Otherwise, the knife in my hand doesn't have eyes long. What I cut is only the first part of your neck. A layer of skin, if you go deeper and cut your arteries, your life will be buried in my hands. Even if the prince arrives later, it will not save your life."
Ji Yuqing was so scared that she turned a pretty face. She didn't know if Xiao Yichen would come to her yard, but she believed Ji Lingxue's words. Dogs would bite people if they were in a hurry, not to mention that Ji Lingxue has lost her mind at this moment.
After weighing the pros and cons, Ji Yuqing had to bow to the evil forces.
Ji Yuqing said: "Sister, as long as you don't kill me and don't want to know anything, I will tell you."
Ji Lingxue smiled with satisfaction and moved the knife away a little, "Now answer my first question."
Ji Yuqing said: "I asked someone to buy the storyteller..." Things have passed for so long, and Ji Lingxue hasn't been seriously injured by the rumors, right?
"Where did the mystery of the life experience you used to negotiate with me come from? Don't lie to annoy me anymore, as Ru Ge said, he never left me a letter before he left Dongqi, let alone hide the letter on the roof."
Ji Yuqing's fingers trembled slightly, and it took a while before she said, "Yes... it was given to me by a mysterious person."
Mystery man? Ji Lingxue thought for a while and realized that she had followed Ji Yuqing to talk secretly with a man in a black cloak. It seemed that it was that person.
Ji Lingxue asked: "Who is that person?"
Ji Yuqing: "I...I don't know?"
The blade approached her neck again, Ji Yuqing's heart was hanging in the air, really worried that her neck would be cut off.
Ji Yuqing cried: "I really don't know...Woo, the mysterious man found me out of nowhere and said that he could help me get the heart of the prince. I don’t know, I love the prince very much, and his conditions are too attractive... …"
Ji Lingxue sneered: "So you are seeking skin with a tiger, leading a wolf into the room, stealing the map of the palace for your own desires and exchanging it with him, do you know what this means?"
Ji Yuqing: "What does it mean?"
"It means that you betrayed the prince and colluded with outsiders to deal with the prince. If I hadn't changed the map, because of your ignorance and stupidity, the Chen Palace might be bloodbathed!"
Ji Yuqing shook her head, "How could this happen, I...I didn't betray the prince, to kill the prince, I just want the prince to notice that I...care about me..."
Ji Lingxue sneered: "The prince gave you a chance. If you do more unrighteousness, you are afraid you will go to hell..."
Ji Yuqing blinked, soya bean's big tears across her cheeks, before she had time to confess, Ji Lingxue's cold voice floated from behind, "I don't need to hold you accountable for the previous matter. I now ask you who spread the rumors to the palace. My biological father is Dayan?"
Ji Yuqing made her head look like a wavy drum, and tried her best to defend her face with a bitter face: "No... I didn't do it... You believe me, how can I have such great connections?"
Ji Lingxue nodded, "Think about it, just because of your brain and your connections, you can't reach the palace, so do you know the inside story?"
Ji Yuqing looked down and said: "It was Evian. She asked his cousin to do it. As you know, she and I are the number one talented woman in Beijing. She has always admired the prince, and his cousin worked under the hands of the uncle."
"Uncle Guo..." Ji Lingxue murmured, everything has his share.
Seeing that Ji Lingxue had already believed it, Ji Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Sister...I have told you everything you want to know, can you put the knife down first?"
Ji Lingxue put the knife away and put it in its sheath. This knife was given to her by Dayan Ruge. Touching the night pearl inlaid on the sheath, Ji Lingxue's eyes flashed with warmth.
Ji Yuqing was holding her neck and she didn't dare to say any more. She was worried that she would say a few more words, and would provoke Ji Lingxue again, and hit her neck again.
Ji Lingxue looked at Ji Yuqing's panic and fear, took out a white porcelain bottle from her sleeve and threw it to her, "Injury medicine." After speaking, she opened the door.
Seeing Ji Lingxue's back, Ji Yuqing saw the wound medicine in her hand suddenly raised her lips and smiled as the wind poured in. A dark shadow appeared strangely in front of Ji Yuqing. Her eyes widened in astonishment, and her neck fell on the ground with a cold hand. The porcelain vase in there is everywhere...
In the next room, she heard the movement of purple leaves lit a candle and walked into the house. She screamed when she saw Ji Yuqing lying on the ground with her neck bleeding.
The scream cut through the clouds, and the entire palace was moved.
The door of the courtyard was slammed by the guards. Mo Xiang walked quickly to open the door, "What happened?"
The guard said: "Is Xue Ji here? The prince ordered me to wait to bring Xue Ji."
Ji Lingxue opened the door and walked out with a look of confusion, "What's the matter?"
The guard had a serious face and an expression that he didn't want to say more. He made a "please" gesture, and Ji Lingxue squinted her eyes and followed.
The hall was brightly lit, with Xiao Yichen sitting high, Ziye kneeling on the ground and crying, "The prince must be the concubine Qing..."
Evian was helped by Linglan and entered the door, "Master, what happened?"
Xiao Yichen pointed to the place beside him, motioned to Evian to sit next to him, and then said: "Ji Yuqing is killed."
Evian turned pale when he heard the words, "How could this happen, who did it?"
Xiao Yichen said: "The dark guard said, a quarter of an hour ago, Ji Lingxue went to Ji Yuqing's courtyard."
Evian looked surprised and said: "They are sisters. Why did Xue Ji murder Sister Qing so cruelly? Is there some misunderstanding?"
Xiao Yichen murmured: "This king also hopes that this is a misunderstanding."
Ji Lingxue walked to the door of the living room and listened to the conversations of several people. A sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth. Is Ji Yuqing killed? Just a quarter of an hour ago, she went to ask Ji Yuqing for questioning. She did not expect that as soon as her front foot left, someone would take the knife to kill someone to put her to death. It was a conspiracy. She had no evidence and no evidence.
Standing at the entrance of the hall, Ji Lingxue looked at Xiao Yichen, who had no facial expression on the high seat, through the candlelight of a room. Ji Yuqing was killed, but he was not nervous or anxious. He was really ruthless.
At this moment, she felt that Xiao Yichen on the high seat was remote and strange.
She still remembered that on the way to Dayan, the man cared about her meticulously and said he liked her. She still remembered his jealous and nervous expression, and remembered that she asked him to carry her on his back, and he smiled and did so. At that time, he was very different from him at the moment.
Ji Lingxue: Xiao Yichen, do you think I will kill Ji Yuqing, are you sitting here to deal with me?
Evian stood up and said, "Xue Ji is here, tell the prince, what's the matter with you and sister Qing?"
Ji Lingxue glanced at Evian indifferently, then turned to Xiao Yichen, and asked calmly, "Ji Yuqing...what happened to her?"
Xiao Yichen also replied calmly: "A quarter of an hour ago, I was cut..."
Ji Lingxue: "You can check the wound, can you judge the weapon used from the wound?"
Xiao Yichen nodded and said, "Dagger."
Ji Lingxue shrugged, drew out the jewel-studded short knife around his waist and threw it on the ground, "Same as this blade?"
Evian looked at Ji Lingxue, then at Xiao Yichen, blinking, the two had such a calm conversation, a husband who didn't look like a dead wife at all, and a murderer who didn't look like a murderer at all.
Xiao Yichen stood up and walked towards Ji Lingxue step by step. He stopped on the jewel-inlaid short knife, bent over to pick it up, and the night pearl inlaid on it broke into two cracks.
Xiao Yichen: Ji Lingxue, you are really cruel, do you want to fall so hard?
Ji Lingxue asked, "Master, you haven't answered my question yet."
Xiao Yichen coughed: "Wai Zuo said it was a cut from a short knife. If it is this knife, you have to let Wu Zuo check it." He said, handing the short knife to the guard next to him, and the guard turned around after taking the knife. Away.
Xiao Yichen continued to ask: "The dark guard said you had been to Ji Yuqing's room a quarter of an hour ago?"
Ji Lingxue nodded, "Yes."
Xiao Yichen asked: "What did you say when you went to find her?"
Ji Lingxue rolled her eyes, "Talking about women's affairs, is it necessary to repeat this? Or did the prince think that I was in a bad mood and ran to kill others to let go of my concubine?"
Evian frowned, Xiao Yichen's words were quite partial to Ji Lingxue. How could this work? No one but Ji Lingxue had entered Ji Yuqing's house again. She was most suspicious.
Evian walked to Xiao Yichen's side and said: "Xue Ji, you are most suspicious of sister Qing's death, the dark guard said, except for you who entered her room, there is no one."
Ji Lingxue smiled, "So, I have become a justifiable murderer? Do I look so stupid? Since I want to kill someone, why do I do it myself and send a killer? Why do I get blood?"
Xiao Yichen said: "Ji Lingxue, you can't speak well."
Ji Lingxue said: "I have always spoken like this. There is no evidence to prove that I murdered. I do not plead guilty."
Evian took Xiao Yichen's arm and said: "Wang Ye, sister Qing's death should be investigated carefully. Although Xue Ji is the most suspicious, we can't wrong her?"
Ji Lingxue's eyes fell on Evian's hand holding Xiao Yichen's arm, her heart sinking.
