Chapter 619 Timid

Su Xi was amused by Xiao Duzi's serious look.

Who was holding the sleeve and wiping away the cold sweat just now?

However, Xiao Duzi really should practice his courage, maybe there will be many more things in the future than now, just to practice him.

"Then go ahead and lead me the way."

Su Xi took a step back on purpose, letting Xiao Duzi stand in front.

Xiao Duzi swallowed hard, although he was afraid in his heart, but now he couldn't hide behind the imperial concubine and act like a turtle.

If the master knows that he has not taken good care of the imperial concubine, why not take some layers of skin off him.

Compared with the master, this execution room seemed less scary.

Thinking of this, Xiao Duzi became more courageous.

"Imperial concubine, please come with the servant." He straightened his body and took a step forward.

"Subordinates see the imperial concubine!"

Seeing Su Xi coming, the Imperial City Army guarding the door bowed their heads respectfully and saluted her.

Su Xi raised her hand slightly: "Everyone is free."

One of the leaders opened the two closed doors and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, no matter how much the woman interrogates, she just keeps silent. It's been several days and I haven't heard her voice."

"Didn't you ask anything?" Su Xi inquired.

The man shook his head, his face showing embarrassment: "No, I've been on a hunger strike for the past few days, neither eating nor drinking."

"The subordinate ordered someone to forcibly feed her some food, lest she die like this."

Hearing this, Su Xi fell silent.

"Don't explain anything, don't eat or drink, she must be looking for death." She frowned slightly.

If Nanny Li died like this, all the clues would be cut off.

"Your subordinates will keep an eye on her, Concubine, don't worry." The man lowered his voice, appearing extremely respectful.

"Understood," Su Xi raised her forehead slightly, "You guys have worked hard too."

She gave Xiao Duzi a suggestive look.

Xiao Duzi knowingly took out some money from the purse prepared in advance and rewarded several guards.

Several people thanked repeatedly after receiving the reward.

"Nurse Li must know a lot." Su Xi glanced at a few people, "I want to make sure she is alive before I ask anything."

"Your subordinate obeys your orders," the leading guard cupped his hands, "Please rest assured, your imperial concubine, I will give you my orders."

"Thank you." Su Xi smiled slightly.

"Xiao Duzi, let's go in." She glanced at Xiao Duzi.

Xiao Duzi resolutely walked ahead, feeling that the closer he got to the door, the more he could not control his legs.

The cold wind really hit the face, much stronger than before.

Mixed with the smell of carrion, don't mention how cautious you are.

And the light inside is very dim, it is almost difficult to see the road under your feet.

Fortunately, two discerning guards saw the imperial concubine coming in person, and specially lit a few torches stuck on the wall, so that there was some light.

Xiao Duzi swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, and walked forward with difficulty against the unpleasant smell.

While walking, he did not forget to turn his head and tell his imperial concubine to be careful not to bump her feet.

Su Xi followed behind him, seeing that his trembling legs were almost unsteady, but he still tried to pretend to be calm to take care of her.

She smiled helplessly.

Alas, Xiao Duzi is so afraid of ghosts.

This is hard enough.

Seeing that he was really panicking with fear, she stopped embarrassing him and walked forward quickly.

"Follow me." She said softly.

Xiao Duzi didn't react for a moment.

After he reacted, Su Xi had already walked a certain distance, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and strode to follow.
