Secret room, dead people, they are trying to kill themselves!
When the door opened and the officials arrived, they found her with a dead body. She was the unmistakable murderer.
But after all, she is the princess and the Marquis's wife.
How could just one or two people frame her?
Even if she was framed by luck, she had no motive for the murder, and the case was full of doubts. In addition, the "eight discussions" reduced the crime and sentence. How much "benefits" could they get in the end from all their efforts?
Even so, Qianru was still afraid.
After all, who doesn’t want to live a good life in peace and enjoy the respect of others?
In the past few years, there have been ups and downs, and although the reputation has been great, the days of real comfort have not passed long.
She really wants to keep her good life now.
After calming down for a while, she suddenly realized that the jacket she just touched had a little bit of residual warmth.
At this time, a bold idea appeared in her mind:
"Climb in and touch her again. If that person is still alive, maybe my blood can save her. Maybe, by then, everything can be reversed."
With a lucky mentality, she crawled under the couch again shivering.
After touching her again and again, from her feet to her head, she was basically certain that she was a woman with slender limbs.
Although her hands and feet were cold, there was still moist air exhaled from her nostrils.
"God help me, I'm actually still alive."
Qianru felt deeper and found that the woman's injuries were on her chest and abdomen.
Perhaps her life should not have been taken, and the blood gushing from the wound was frozen, so she was lucky enough to save her life.
This was a bit tingling for Qianru. She had to use her hands to pry away the ice and blood clots in the woman's wound, and then wiped her own blood on her wound.
Fortunately, things went smoothly and she succeeded.
After feeling that the woman's wound had healed, she tried her best to rub her hands and feet, and finally saved her.
However, as soon as the woman came to her senses, he kicked her abruptly.
With one kick, she was pushed to the base of the wall.
It was so violent that it hurt her so much that she curled up on the ground and couldn't even straighten her back.
Then, the woman climbed out.
After some fiddling, the woman realized the fact that she was locked in the room and started talking to herself.
"The audacious human trafficker dares to kidnap even this princess."
Qianru listened for a while and felt that the woman's voice was very familiar, and she called herself the princess.
Looking at the entire capital, Xiao Lian'er and Xiang Xiang are the only ones who can use this title.
Xiao Lian'er must bring hundreds of escorts with her when she goes out. No one can harm her easily. Therefore, she speculated that the person in the same room with her must be Princess Xiangxiang of Hedong County.
As we all know, Xiangxiang broke into the house and beat her many times.
They have an irresolvable feud.
Therefore, Qianru finally understood the good intentions of Princess Nandu and Shangguan Liu.
However, they did not expect that Xiangxiang would be saved even if he was destined to die.
And this good fortune in misfortune has also become a "chip" for Qianru to plot revenge.
"Hey, stop yelling. If the bad guys know that you are not dead yet and they attack again, no one can save you!"
Xiangxiang also remembered that he was stabbed with a pair of scissors, but when he woke up and felt no injuries on his body, he thought it was a nightmare.
After Qianru said this, she was really sure that she had been injured. After all, there were holes in her clothes and there was a strong smell of blood.
But how could such a serious injury suddenly heal?
"Who are you? You saved me, right?"
"I saved you, but you probably don't want to know who I am."
Feeling Xiangxiang's hand reaching out, Qianru hurriedly avoided it.
"Where are you? I clearly heard your voice right here."
It was pitch dark, Qianru touched the wall and crawled cautiously, not wanting to be caught by Xiangxiang.
"Don't try to be violent, I will fight back."
This timidity is all a shadow of being beaten out the year before.
Fortunately, Xiangxiang treated her quite politely even though he didn't know who she was.
Now, she is only thinking about how to escape from the tiger's mouth and let the bad guys be punished.
"Hey, why are you under the bed?"
"I went to the Miaofa Temple to offer incense, and was invited to the side room for tea by the sister-in-law in the temple. Unexpectedly, the sister-in-law lured away the people around me, and then showed her evil face. When I woke up, I was already under the couch. Where are you?
"
"My husband and I came to visit relatives. He was lured away, and I was imprisoned here for no reason, and then I found you."
"Oh! You are really unlucky. But your coat is so soft, can I touch it again?"
She guessed that Xiangxiang was freezing, so she leaned over to let her warm him without any precautions.
Unexpectedly, this clever girl actually lifted her up.
And based on the lightness of her body, she guessed her identity.
"I was surprised when I caught you just now. With my little strength, I was able to catch you. Tell me, are you An Qianru? Are you that female ghost?"
"I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway, I'm not a female ghost."
After all, she had lost so much blood. After holding her up for a while, Xiangxiang felt a little weak and had to put her down.
"It must be you. It's impossible to find another person as young as you in the whole capital. I'm so unlucky that I almost lost my life because of you."
Qianru was surprised, "How can you be sure that it's because of me that you're unlucky, and not that I'm unlucky because of you?"
"Do you think I'm as stupid as you?" Xiangxiang said angrily: "Yesterday, the prince advised me not to come to Miaofa Temple to offer incense. He said that Princess Nandu and Shangguan Liu's relationship were too close, which was not a good sign. I didn't listen and was only thinking about the storm.
If you don’t change your mind, you will go up to this pillar to pray for the incense, and the result will be "
"If someone wants to harm me, I can't do anything about it. Besides, who told you not to listen to Chang Sun Ji?"
Xiangxiang started to cry.
Qianru couldn't bear to hear her crying, so she hurriedly went over to comfort her.
"Don't be sad, maybe your county prince will come looking for you in a while."
"It's better not to come here. He is not in good health and catches cold very easily. If he comes here, he will inevitably get seriously ill when he goes back. But if he doesn't come to me, no one will care about me in the world. Wuwuwu."
"I don't care about you."
"Why do you care about me? Why do you care about me? What are your intentions?"
A series of questions made Qianru not sure how to answer.
At this moment, a scream came from outside.
Qianru guessed that the evildoer overheard their conversation and was frightened. She quickly blocked Xiangxiang's mouth and urged her in a low voice to crawl under the couch and pretend to be dead.
And she was sitting on the edge of the couch wrapped in quilt, talking to herself.
After a while, a candlelight appeared near the window.
A strange voice said, "You heard wrong. There is clearly only one voice."
"No, I just heard two distinct voices."
"Don't feel guilty. The officers and soldiers are already halfway up the mountain. By the time they search here, everything will be settled."
Qianru hurriedly threw herself against the window and shouted: "Let me out, let me out, I don't want to stay with the dead bodies."
After some fooling around, the criminal was finally coaxed.
"I'm going to the mountain gate now to look for the wind. You can carefully clarify your confession yourself. Don't let the officers and soldiers say the wrong things."
Not long after, officers and soldiers came over to search.
The doorkeeper said anxiously: "The murderer is locked inside, just waiting for the official to come and get him!"
However, the official broke the door and saw Qianru and Xiangxiang living in the same room. There was no body in the room.
When Qianru and Xiangxiang saw that their evil-doing sister-in-law was trying to escape, they quickly called the police to arrest her.
Fortunately, she was rescued and able to escape. Xiangxiang burst into tears of gratitude to Qianru and said: "You are so kind-hearted like my sister."
She held her hand and said, "If you are willing, I will be your sister from now on and your forever relative."
