Zhou Jingxuan's hands hidden in his sleeves were tightly clasped together, signaling An Er to continue: "He is in a village thirty miles outside the capital."
"She is very cautious. Her subordinates are afraid of alerting others, so they dare not make any moves and come back to report immediately."
Jiang Si glanced at Zhou Jingxuan: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's leave the city now!"
Zhou Jingxuan grabbed her and said, "Don't worry, going out now is too eye-catching, wait until night."
Jiang Si paused, feeling a little annoyed in her mind. Why had she forgotten this in such a hurry.
News from the palace spread quickly, and the priest's words spread everywhere in the afternoon.
Those who were waiting to watch the show dispersed one after another. Jiang Yue leaned against the restaurant with some regret: "My concubine really has something."
Zhou Jingxuan also went to see her about An He's matter, but there was no useful information.
That man was sincerely pretending and simply used An He as a pawn.
Jiang Si told what happened to An He, and Zhou Jingxuan felt a trace of guilt in his heart. He had promised An He's father to take good care of her, but in the end things turned out to be like that.
He had a headache and didn't know how to deal with this.
Zhou Jingxuan can quickly make the most advantageous choice for major events, but when it comes to matters involving a girl's family, Zhou Jingxuan seems a little at a loss.
Finally, Jiang Si said that she should ask Zhou Jingxuan to treat An He as his adopted sister, so that even if she lived in the mansion, no one would gossip about her.
When the time comes, when she finds someone she likes or someone she can trust, and she marries in the name of the Eighth Prince's Palace, no one will bully her anymore.
Even if he has the heart, he doesn't have the courage.
Jiang Si told An He this proposal. An He's eyes turned red instantly and her voice choked up: "Princess, your great kindness will be something An He will never forget."
An He's matter was settled, and all that was left was to wait for nightfall.
As soon as the sky darkened, the two of them immediately headed towards the outskirts under the cover of night.
Many people in the village have already turned off their lights, and the person An Er mentioned is at the end of the village.
Because he is an outsider, I heard that he spent money to stay.
The three of them stopped at the door, and An Er stepped forward and knocked hard.
A hoarse female voice instantly sounded inside: "Who is it?"
Then orange light shone through the crack in the door, and then a face was pressed behind the crack in the door to look at the situation outside. An Er turned his head and glanced at Zhou Jingxuan, and then kicked the door open.
The door was kicked open, and the woman was thrown to the ground due to the force. The oil lamp was knocked to the ground, but the flames did not go out.
The woman trembled and said, "Who are you!"
"come..."
Before she could say anything, she immediately stopped because An Er's knife was already on her neck.
The woman's legs were so frightened that she no longer dared to shout.
She picked up the oil lamp from the ground, refilled it with oil and lit it.
The orange light in the room danced, and Jiang Si could see the woman's appearance clearly.
Her hair was messy, and half of her face was covered with horrific scars, which looked like burns.
There was fear in her eyes, and she did not dare to look at Jiang Si and Zhou Jingxuan.
He just kept rubbing his clothes with his hands and whispered: "What on earth are you going to do?"
"I have nothing."
Her voice was trembling, and she felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart from the first moment she saw him through the crack of the door.
Who would look for someone like her?
Firstly, she has no money, and secondly... she has no appearance, she is just an ugly and strange woman.
When she saw that these people were wearing unusual materials, she suddenly started to panic.
Could it be for...
At this time, she was thinking about how to get through. If she was still alive tomorrow, she must move away from here!
Zhou Jingxuan raised his eyes and glanced at her, and his cold expression suddenly sent a chill through her body.
Jinnian felt that he basically couldn't survive.
Zhou Jingxuan spoke slowly: "Aunt Jinnian."
Jinnian suddenly trembled. She lowered her head and looked flustered, but she pretended to be calm and said, "Did you find the wrong person? There is no Aunt Jinnian here. My name is Chou Niang."
Zhou Jingxuan ignored Jinnian at all and continued to speak: "Aunt Jinnian was Yu Jiangnuan's personal maid. She followed Yu Jiangnuan into the palace."
"Yu Jiangnuan is now Concubine Yu, and the most trusted person around her has become the only personal maid who is still by her side. Now everyone calls her Nanny Qin."
"And another maid was burned to death in a fire that year."
"Aunt Jinnian, does the injury on your face still hurt at night?"
"The place where Aunt Jinnian lives now is too bad. Do you want me to go find Concubine Yu and talk about changing it to a better place for you?"
"After all, you have been with her for so many years and have done a lot for her."
Jin Huan was already scared, but when she heard Zhou Jingxuan's words, she was frightened and blurted out: "Don't tell the queen!"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly woke up and realized that she had spilled the beans.
She looked at Zhou Jingxuan and Jiang Si, their bodies limp, and there was no longer any dodge in their eyes. She gave up and said, "What do you want from me?"
Seeing Jinnian's admission, Jiang Si's eyes instantly flashed with joy.
According to the information found, not long after Concubine Yu gave birth, a fire broke out in Jinnian's residence. Others who had been with Concubine Yu were burned to death at that time.
The only one who survived was Grandma Qin who was next to Concubine Yu. The others were transferred later.
Zhou Jingxuan's eyes flashed and he opened his mouth. He couldn't ask the question for a moment. He expected the truth but was also afraid of the truth.
Jiang Si instantly felt something strange about Zhou Jingxuan, and reached out to hold Zhou Jingxuan's hand. The warm touch made Zhou Jingxuan's heart calm down instantly.
Jiang Si looked at Jinnian and spoke slowly: "I want to know whether the child born to Concubine Yu was alive or dead!"
Jin Nian's face suddenly changed. She looked at Jiang Si in horror and shook her head quickly: "I don't know, I really don't know."
Jiang Si glanced at her and said coldly: "Since you don't know, then we have nothing to talk about."
"Concubine Yu must be very happy to know that her old friend is still alive. I will take you back to Concubine Yu, and maybe I can make Concubine Yu happy."
Jiang Si pretended to pull Zhou Jingxuan away, and Jinnian's face turned pale instantly. She knew what would happen if Concubine Yu knew that she was still alive.
Everyone knows that the imperial concubine is beautiful and kind, but only those who serve her closely know it.
Beauty is like a snake and scorpion, but Concubine Yu is really ruthless, and she is also extremely cruel when punishing her servants.
She would have people throw leeches into a wooden barrel, then take off the maid's clothes and throw them in, watching her struggle in the water, and then her whole body would be covered with leeches.
Jinnian's scalp is numb with fear every time he thinks of this scene, and this is just one of them!
If she falls into the hands of a noble concubine, she will definitely be tortured to death!
