Chapter Twenty-Four

nightmare

Lantern Festival is another grand event in the first lunar month. There are lanterns all over the capital, which is too beautiful to behold.

Ji Si woke up in the dark night, she bowed her head, her hands were groping around her body, her limbs were short, her voice was immature, and wherever her fingers and palms touched, there were tingling pains.

Under the hazy moonlight, she lifted up her pant legs, revealing her calf covered with bruises.

"Mother... Mother, mother..." Ji Si cried.

The picture suddenly changed, and Ji Si held a small dagger and kept slashing, slashing, and slashing in the peach forest.

A figure of a woman in a gorgeous dress appeared in Taoye Lanman's place. She couldn't see her face clearly, but she could only hear her coughing continuously, as if she was weak and sick.

Ji Si had a mud ball on her face, covered with sweat, and turned to look at her in surprise: "Mother!"

Little Ji Si ran towards the woman, "Where's younger brother?"

The woman coughed badly, covered her chest and fell limply to the ground.

"Ma'am!" Immediately, a group of maidservants filed in, pushed Xiao Ji Si to the ground, and went to help her.

Blood color spread from the soles of the feet, ripples appeared, and the sky and the earth changed color.

The flowers in the sky turn into paper money, and the bright and colorful sky turns into a dead tomb.

The maid cried out sadly: "Ma'am!"

"Mother!" Suddenly, Ji Si woke up from the dream and sat up from the couch.

"you're awake?"

The candlelight dispelled the entire darkness, and a voice rang in my ears.

Ji Si turned her head with sweat profusely, and saw Qin Jun holding a white handkerchief in his hand.Ji Si lost her gaze and her pupils shrank suddenly, obviously she hadn't woken up from the dream.

"Don't be afraid," Qin Jun wiped off her sweat, wiping Ji Si's sweaty forehead little by little with a wet hot handkerchief, "You slept all day."

Ji Si's eyes refocused, and she suddenly grabbed Qin Jun's wrist and pulled her onto the couch.

The candlelight flickered, and Qin Jun was shrouded in shadow.

Qin Jun tried to get up in a hurry, but her knees were pinned down, and she fell back again: "..."

"You're afraid of me," Ji Si lowered her eyebrows, "Why?"

Qin Jun swallowed her saliva, she was too close, she could smell Ji Si's faint fragrance and resentment.

"I didn't." Qin Jun frowned.

Ji Si looked at Qin Jun sullenly, her eyebrows and eyes reflected the candlelight in the room, half in the darkness at the junction of light and shadow, half in the light of the candlelight, like a Buddha walking on the edge of black and white, thinking of heaven, thinking ofhell.

Ji Si's voice was hoarse: "Does it hurt?"

"Does it hurt more than Nu?" Ji Si whispered, constantly tightening Qin Jun's hand.

Qin Jun frowned, tears came out of her eyes, "Lady Pin..."

Ji Si tilted her head, as if looking at her, "What do you want? What do you want from me?"

Qin Jun breathed heavily, "What do you have now... Food and clothing are all given by me!"

"There must be," Ji Si said, "You just don't want to say..."

Ji Si grabbed Qin Jun's wrist and pulled it under her lips. Her lips were like peach petals, her tongue was like a rose red, with stamens bursting out of the peach red, and she licked a red mole on Qin Jun's wrist.

Qin Jun's pupils trembled, and he trembled uncontrollably under Ji Si's movements.

Qin Jun: "Lin Yan!"

Ji Si: "I only have this slave."

Qin Jun: "..."

Ji Si touched Qin Jun's collar, "When I took a bath that day, I saw that the princess also had a red mole on her heart."

"..." Qin Jun immediately called for help, "...Jin Xiu!"

A stone came through the air and hit Ji Si on the neck, making her unconscious immediately.

Jin Xiu broke into the door and threw Ji Si aside without hesitation, "Princess?"

Qin Jun breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank God, I almost lost my virginity."

Qin Jun sat by the stove and asked Xing'er to apply the medicine for herself.Call the Uncle King for questioning.

It was only then that Qin Jun knew that Fei Ye had been in a coma. Jin Xiu had just gone to give him the antidote. The poison would last for seven hours, and if it was a moment later, the assassin would be dead.

Qin Jun supported her forehead: "... Alas."

Uncle King knelt on the ground: "Lady Pin didn't intend to adjust the antidote, she was just afraid..."

Qin Jun was helpless: "She must be afraid that the assassin Fei will take the antidote and be plotted by Fei when she is also sick and weak."

Uncle King nodded immediately, "Yes, Miss Mingjian."

Jin Xiu frowned beside her, "Why?"

Qin Jun: "A person with a chaotic temperament is unreasonable. She is suspicious and angry. Who knows when Fei will provoke her."

Jin Xiu was at the side, pouring tea with one hand and handing it to Qin Jun, "Fortunately, I was careful and came to take a look at it at night."

After taking the medicine, Qin Jun tried to move his wrist, "Is there any visitor in the bamboo garden last night?"

Xing'er: "The servants of Prince Kang's Mansion came once, but the slaves sent them away."

Qin Jun pressed her forehead, "Don't worry, what about Song Wenzhou?"

Xing'er: "...I also fainted, because I was scared by the flying."

Qin Jun: "Wake him up, Uncle King, go and show him the prescription Lin Yan is taking, and see if there is any way to alleviate the toxicity."

"promise."

Uncle King went to work as promised, Xing'er and Jin Xiu waited for Qin Jun to rest in the bamboo garden.

Having trouble sleeping all night, Qin Jun went out of the palace at night to make things happen the next morning.

Just after the Lantern Festival, the schedule of going south to suppress the bandits could no longer be delayed, and the army led by Li Wuduan left the city at dawn.

When Qin Jun came to see him off wrapped in thick fur, Qin Kuang and Li Wuduan had just finished drinking the practice wine, they threw down the wine bowl and clasped fists at each other.

Qin Kuang: "Xiao Liu, why are you here?"

"Father told me everything." Qin Jun walked over.

As soon as he was about to go on an expedition, Li Wuduan became bold, "You have been in Capital for a long time, but you have never seen the color of Jiang Prefecture. If you win the suppression of bandits this time, His Majesty promises me to bring you back to Jiang Prefecture for two years! Meet your grandfather!"

In the original book, there is no such thing as Li Wuduan suppressing the bandits and bringing the sixth princess back to Jiang Prefecture. All the things that deviated from the established track made Qin Jun flustered.

"Jiang Prefecture can go at any time! Brother, don't love to fight!" Qin Jun said.

Qin Kuang didn't talk back this time.Li Wuduan agreed to suppress the bandits, but it came too suddenly. After talking with Qin Jun at night, he almost didn't hesitate to report the memorial to the ban.

After the death, Ji Si had returned to normal and came leading Xuan Zhima.

Xuan stallion snorted, Qin Jun pulled it once, it seemed to remember it, and spewed a burst of hot air towards Qin Jun.

"This horse has spirituality, Lady Pin is willing to lend it to the prince, and go south to suppress the bandits." Ji Si greeted Li Wuduan and blessed him.

Li Wuduan looked at Ji Si with complicated eyes, "Lin... girl, this horse..."

"It's okay," Ji Si smiled, and smiled elegantly at Li Wuduan, "Just treat it as a slave who offended the princess last night and apologized."

Li Wuduan: "..."

Qin Jun: "..."

Qin Kuang: "..."

Xuan Zhi Ma impatiently kicked his front legs, but Li Wuduan did not have a horse, so he got on his horse.

Xuan Zhima has a strong temperament, and almost no one can control it. He only listened to Ji Si's words, and immediately threw Li Wuduan off.

Ji Si patted the horse's head, "You haven't run gracefully for several years, go."

Immediately, the horse seemed to be encouraged, circled around Ji Si twice, and then paced in front of Li Wuduan.

"A good horse!" Li Wuduan yelled, but he didn't ride, "It's a good horse, use it on the battlefield."

Li Wuduan got on another horse, tightened the reins and pinched the horse's belly, Xuan Zhi took the lead and rushed to the city gate first.

"drive!"

The heavy city gate was slowly pulled open, and Xuan Zhi jumped out from the gap in the light-leaking city gate.

"Follow the horse!"

The army pulled out the camp, the cavalry rushed out, and the infantry outside the city had already set off, rushing to the south in the heavy winter mist.

As the sun rose, Qin Jun narrowed his eyes slightly under the light.

Ji Si walked to Qin Jun's side, raised her sleeves to shield her from the light, "Princess, go back."

Qin Jun turned her head and was about to say something when she saw Qin Kuang looking at Ji Si.

Before the words were spoken, another man came from the city on a fast horse.

Qin Jun turned her head to look at it and carefully identified it.

Jin Xiu: "It's the third prince."

"Little six—old four!"

Qin Jun immediately said: "Lady Pin, get in the car!"

"Woo! This king is late, brother Li left the city?" The third prince was dressed in black armor and had an unshaven beard. He should have rushed here just after finishing his shift from the forbidden center.

Qin Kuang: "I left a long time ago, third brother is really too slow."

Qin Ni laughed loudly, and explained: "The capital is going to transfer troops from Yulan Pass, and I have been very busy, this king—"

Ji Si was following Qin Jun into the carriage, and as soon as she climbed into the carriage, she attracted Qin Ni's attention.

"This girl is—"

Ji Si was about to turn her head, but Qin Jun who was in the carriage stretched out her hand and gently held her cheek, and brought her into the carriage.

Qin Jun: "..."

Ji Si half fell on Qin Jun's body, and looked at her with a half-smile.

Qin Jun blushed, pushed Ji Si away and got up, lifted the curtain and faced a pair of horse noses, "..."

Qin Ni was short, and he laughed straight: "This girl is Liumei's well-known Capital's small outer room? Why can't I show my brother?"

Qin Jun yanked down the curtain, and bid farewell to Qin Ni and Qin Kuang across the carriage, "There is nothing to see, Xiao Liu is going back."

The carriage swayed slightly, but Qin Kuang and Qin Ni did not catch up. Qin Jun heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Ji Si.

"What?" Qin Jun asked.

Ji Si reached out and rubbed her neck, "For some reason, my neck hurts badly."

Qin Jun: "..."

Qin Jun tugged on her sleeves and covered her wrists, "I just had a stiff neck last night."

Ji Si then said, "I haven't slept all night since I woke up."

Qin Jun: "..."

"Did the slave hurt the princess?" Ji Si's eyes fell on Qin Jun's wrist.

The corner of Qin Jun's mouth twitched: "...you remember."

Ji Si turned her gaze away, hummed softly, "Princess, forgive me."

"I was wrong, dare you next time, won't you?" Qin Jun interrogated Ji Si awkwardly, "That's what you think in your heart."

Ji Si blinked: "Of course not!"

Qin Jun turned her head angrily, she no longer trusted Ji Si, and she had lingering fears in her heart that she would sacrifice herself when she fell ill.

"Does the princess want to punish the slave?" Ji Si asked.

Qin Jun didn't turn her head, but smiled at the corner of her mouth, thinking that she was waiting for your words, "Have you heard of Central Capital?"

Ji Si: "Out of Capital, cross the canal and go south for a hundred miles to Central Capital. I heard that Central Capital has also been very prosperous in recent years."

Qin Jun nodded, "Although it's not better than Capital, it's fortunate that it's not better than Capital. I asked you to learn martial arts with Fei. How are you doing?"

"It's still half a month, don't slack off, I have something to tell you to do."

Ji Si was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "No."

"How's the book going? I'm going to take a school homework test in two days."

"I have already read the Three Character Classic by heart."

"Well, let's start learning three hundred poems."

"promise."

As soon as the Lantern Festival was over, the first month passed quickly, Zhuyuan began to move many large and small boxes, all of which were boxes of silver jewelry, all of which were bought by Ji Si at Capital in the name of the Li family and exchanged for silver notes.

After Assassin Fei trained, even though he didn't kill Ji Si with a single blow, it didn't make her feel better. He practiced martial arts every day to torture him, and he wished that Ji Si could be abolished.

There are still five days before the Linshui Banquet, and all the nobles in Beijing are waiting to attend the Linshui Banquet before leaving Beijing and returning to the fiefdom.

"Girl," Uncle King replied in front of the screen, "the prescription promised by the doctor has arrived."

After another ten days, Ji Si suffered from a burning headache, "Miss, are you coming back today?"

The Uncle King shook his head.

Ji Si withdrew the soft sword, "Where's Fei?"

Xing'er appeared behind Zhaobi, "You have been dismissed by the princess, you can go and rest yourself, don't worry about it."

Uncle King immediately said: "I'll grab the medicine and fry it!"

Ji Si narrowed her eyes dangerously, her body was weak and limp after the violent emotional upheaval, and she needed to rest very much.

"Princess, why is this so?" Ji Si said with a cold gaze, "You must keep everything from me."

Two days ago, in Shibuya outside Capital, the wind and snow were blowing, and a caravan continued to move forward along a secluded path.

"Ambush here, wait for Zhong Hui to leave the capital!"
