Chapter 402 Never Changed
Xia Qi got out of the tent and closed the exit of the tent.

The wind in winter is dry and cold, and at night, the coldness at night makes people extremely uncomfortable.

Xia Qi stood at the exit of the tent for a moment, then turned sideways to look at the simple tent.

There is a yellow light in the simple tent. In the dark and lonely wilderness, this light is particularly warming, like a small, insignificant home that can light up the chest.

That light seemed to light up Xia Qi's eyes as well, making the corners of his mouth involuntarily curl up on his cold face.

Xia Qi turned his head and prepared to leave.

At this time, a thin figure rushed over quickly and knelt at Xia Qi's feet.

Xia Qi paused.

The woman at the foot raised her head, revealing a snow-white, thin face, with black hair hanging down, good features, dry lips, and a smear of gray mud on her face, like a beautiful girl reduced to a beggar, her There is a resemblance between the eyebrows and Li Ling.

Li Jingshu kowtowed towards Xia Qi, stretched out her hands again, and spread them out, revealing two thick scars on her wrists: "My lord! My lord! Please save me! They're going to kill me!"

Li Jingshu showed a look of fear on her face, and her pale face was full of sadness: "I am just an ordinary person, and I have no power to restrain a chicken. It's just because I look a little like that adult, and I violated her taboo." , she is going to kill me! Please, sir, save me."

Pulling back the clothes on her shoulders, revealing a few fresh scars, Li Jingshu begged Xia Qi: "Please help me, my lord, please help me, they don't treat me as a human being at all, and they will always bully me."

Li Jingshu's clothes are thin, revealing a section of snow-white shoulders that seem to have been abused, which makes people think about it.

Xia Qi's face was cold and calm, as motionless as a mountain, silent.

Seeing this, Li Jingshu wept and said sadly: "Please help me, please help me. As long as you can take me away, let me be a cow and a horse for you, a slave who serves tea and water, sweeps and washes laundry." ——My lord, I... I can't stand them, they treat me... like a beast."

As she spoke, Li Jingshu glanced at Liu Jin, Qin Huo and the Queen Mother who were sitting far away on the other side.

Following Li Jingshu's eyes, Xia Qi glanced at the three people sitting around the campfire.

Liu Jin just looked at Li Jingshu and sneered.Qin Huo's face was complicated and embarrassing.The Empress Dowager had a face of nothing to do with herself, and looked like she was watching the show.

Xia Qi frowned slightly, his figure flashed and disappeared suddenly.

"My lord?!" Li Jingshu raised her head and looked around in a daze. Where is Xia Qi's figure here? !

Xia Qi had disappeared, Li Jingshu put away the sadness on her face, and sat down on the ground with a dejected and disappointed expression.

Li Ling opened the tent, got out of the tent, and stood in front of Li Jingshu.

Li Jingshu's expression froze, and she immediately put her hands on the ground and lowered her head deeply, as if she was bowing her head in confession, but also seemed to be lowering her head in fear.

Li Ling looked at Li Jingshu, and said coldly: "Li Jingshu, I always thought you were not such a person."

Li Jingshu knelt on the ground, her body trembled, and she didn't speak.

Li Ling said lightly: "Back then you told me that you didn't want to be a canary in the palace for people to play with, so you practiced martial arts every day to fight for a future for yourself. But today, Sima Zhen is the first, and then Xia Kai... When did you start to make up your mind to live by relying on others?!"

Li Jingshu lowered her head, her complexion was ashen, and the hairs on her exposed shoulders were straightened up by the cold wind.

Li Jingshu wanted to tell Li Ling.After so long, she, Li Jingshu, has never changed.

Back then, she didn't want to enter the palace to be the concubine of the old emperor in the death palace because she could have a better choice, and she could fight for a future for herself.Now she seduces Sima Zhen first, and then begs Xia Qi to save her, just because she has no way out at this moment, and there is a dead end ahead.

If she can live to dominate the world, what is a man? !

But now she is as humble as grass, she is precarious, of course her own life is the most important thing, what are body, dignity, and deceit? !

She, Li Jingshu, knew that Sima Zhen and Xia Qi were Li Ling's friends, and if she worked hard on them, the chances of her escaping would be too low.But besides them, what choice does she have? !A person like Qin Huo, who looks gentle, is actually a serious person. He only wants to hand her over to Wang Chao Wanwan, the daughter of the Jin Dynasty.

Could it be... just let her wait to die like this? !
No!As long as there is a glimmer of hope, she, Li Jingshu, will never give up!
Li Jingshu's face was ashen, but her eyes were still persistent.But facing Li Ling's question, Li Jingshu didn't answer, she just kept silent.

At this time, Li Jingshu was just like Aunt Qian in the Li Mansion. Maybe everything she said was wrong.Maybe anything you say may lead to attacks from the other party.

Li Jingshu knew very well that although Li Ling said that she would hand her over to the current Queen of Jin, Chao Wanwan.But in fact, as long as she was around Li Ling for a moment, Li Ling might seriously injure her if she offended Li Ling, leaving her to take a breath to see Chao Wanwan.

Li Ling had a grudge against her, and Li Ling would think bad things in his heart when she said anything.Therefore, Li Jingshu didn't say anything.

Seeing that Li Jingshu just knelt on the ground with an expression of "I admit my mistake, I'm guilty, you can do whatever you want", Li Ling didn't bother to continue.

Li Ling looked up at the sky.

Xia Qifei left.

Li Ling took a deep breath, and the cold night air squeezed into his chest, making him feel slightly chilly. A trace of complexity flashed in Li Ling's eyes, and he turned back into the tent.

Li Ling closed the exit of the tent and lay down in the sleeping bag by himself.

This tent can sleep up to three people.It's just that the people outside are either men or have grudges against Li Ling, so of course Li Ling won't invite them in to "keep warm".

The yellow light illuminates the entire tent, which is very comfortable and warm.Li Ling's heart agitated, and her eyes became more complicated. She turned over and fell asleep by herself.

Outside the tent, Li Jingshu exhaled, straightened her clothes, and slowly stood up.

Liu Jin walked to Li Jingshu's side with a sarcastic smile on his face, with mockery and schadenfreude in his eyes: "Li Jingshu, you are really getting more and more open-minded..."

Li Jingshu was silent.

Qin Huo walked over with a complicated expression and opened his mouth to say something, but stopped talking and just said: "Miss Li Jingshu, come to our side. There is a bonfire here, it will be warmer."

Li Jingshu glanced at Qin Huo and nodded.

The queen mother sneered: "Another one who was defeated by her!"

The Queen Mother leisurely walked back to the bonfire: "I really don't know where she got her good luck. She is very good at martial arts, and the men around her are also very powerful!"
