Chapter 46 Isn’t country more important than beauty? (3)
As soon as the man in fine clothes opened his eyes, water was poured on his face and he immediately screamed.
"What the hell is that? This is cold water, Mr. Yang." Qiao Xi sat back at the tea table with a cold face.
"Where did you come from, this yellow-haired girl? Do you know who I am? Do you know who my father is?"
When Yang Tiankuo saw that there was only a little girl with haircut hair on the other side, he immediately scratched his neck and screamed.
"Your father is Yang Guangyuan, the Minister of Rites, and you are a prodigal, I know."
"What do you want to do? Did I call someone?"
The man looked at her constantly wiping the dagger in her hand, and his legs were so frightened that he said tremblingly.
Qiao Xi looked at the dagger in his hand and lightly cut his clothes a few times. He didn't speak until blood beads seeped out,
"Didn't you tell your men to retreat downstairs? How could you hear it?"
"Relax, I'll ask you a few questions."
"Didn't the madam tell you not to enter this house?"
Yang Tiankuo's drug addiction had not passed, but he looked at his arm that had begun to bleed, his chin trembled, "I told you."
"Then you're still coming in? Are you disturbing my practice?"
Qiao Xi now looked very much like the murderous female devil in the storybook, cutting his flesh with an expressionless face, which made Yang Tiankuo kowtow repeatedly in fear.
He had long heard that a female devil appeared in the martial arts world, but he didn't expect that he would meet her.
…
Looking at the well-dressed man running away, Qiao Xi smiled and bent over.
"Did the stuff arrive?"
The man came out from behind the screen.
Even though he only wore a thin white undershirt, he still could not hide his aura.
The person who was as gentle as jade just now has a stern look on his face now.
However, his eyes recognized what Qiao Xi had just done.
He is indeed a person who has achieved great things!
"It's been delivered. I won't leave until the second prince opens the letter."
Qi Anze did not know that Qiao Xi did not give the letter to the second prince, but imitated his handwriting and wrote a letter to the general... but did not send it out.
He got dressed and sat at the table drinking tea leisurely.
Qiao Xi originally wanted the general to take him to his house, but now that he is fine, he still has to stay here.
This madam is a money-minded owner. She just left today and let people in. If someone offered a higher price, she would probably dare to sell the host for a big price.
——
At the third watch, everything is silent.
Qiao Xi secretly lay on the roof wearing night clothes and watched every move in the house.
"Did you see clearly, that man is really the prince?"
"It's absolutely true. I met him when I was on duty at the third prince's house, but I was a little far away at the time. I just recognized him through the screen." The person who spoke was the boy next to Yang Tiankuo.
"But he doesn't have anything valuable on him, how can you prove that what you said is true?" the madam asked suspiciously.
"A few days ago, when we were at the third prince's residence, the two of them were sparring in martial arts. His Royal Highness's arm was scratched by the third prince. Judging from the time, there should still be marks on it now." The boy gestured.
"Any more?"
"Even if there is this, I don't know about it. After all, I just clean the outer courtyard and only meet him by chance." The boy said flatteringly.
The madam nodded and motioned to the people around him to give him the money on the table.
The boy took the money given to him by the madam and prepared to leave with a smile, but before he could go out, he was stabbed to death by the boy next to the madam from behind.
Josie's eyes widened and she swallowed subconsciously.
"Sister, why don't I take the portrait and ask someone again." The guy asked while wiping the blood on the knife with a cloth.
"Let's go and investigate. If the situation is true, then he is the biggest bargaining chip for our Anhe Association to fight against the imperial court. As for the wounds on his body, we will be closed for the day tomorrow and let Cui Wei go in with the doctor to take care of him."
She originally wanted to scare the madam by pretending to be a ghost, but she didn't expect to witness a murder, and she didn't expect that the other party turned out to be a member of the Peace Society.
In the original plot, the brothel was simply described in a few sentences without any details. Now it seems that they have come out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den.
In the original text, the Anhehui was always dissatisfied with the imperial policy, and conducted several sieges without success. It was only after the host came to power that he recruited An, and finally stopped, but the role of the brothel was not mentioned.
After listening for a while, she carefully returned to the room, gently pushed the person on the bed, and whispered,
"Host, we have to move to another place. It's no longer safe here."
"What's wrong?" the man asked in a low voice, and his reaction speed was not like that of a sleeping person.
"I found out that this is the stronghold of the Peace Society. Now they have recognized you and are planning to let you be used as a hostage in exchange for their brothers who were captured by the imperial court."
Qi Anze let out a light 'ha' and said self-deprecatingly, "What's the use of a prince who has been thrown into the cold palace? It's only a matter of time that this title will be abolished."
Qiao Xi: "..." She didn't know how to comfort Qi Anze. After all, in the original script, his father really wanted to depose him and make the second prince the crown prince. It was only because there were too many old ministers that he delayed.
There is no way to take action.
Because his father originally used the words "the former emperor was incompetent and the prince was young, and if he does this next time, the country will be swallowed up", he got the consent of the old minister, but the condition was that the prince must ascend the throne twenty years later, and now the host is greatly
He will be old in one year, so the second prince is anxious to take action.
‘Dong dong dong,’
"Is the young master sleeping?" the madam's voice came in a flattering tone.
Qiao Xi handed the luminous pearl in her arms to Qi Anze to illuminate it, carefully hid the person in the closet, changed her clothes, and turned around to go out.
"Young Master is fast asleep, Madam Yu, what can I do?" Qiao Xi turned around and closed the door, blocking the Madam's sight.
"I just got a good bird's nest here, and I specially prepared it for the young master to replenish his health."
Looking at the decoction in the Madam's hand, Qiao Xi looked at the Madam again and took it carefully, "As Madam Laoyu is concerned, I will accept it for the Young Master."
Suddenly, a special fragrance wafted out. Josie stroked her forehead and watched the person in front of her covering her mouth with a handkerchief gradually appear as a double image. She raised her hand unwillingly.
Too careless!
The next day,
The bright daylight came through the gap in the window, shaking Qiao Xi awake, and he squinted to observe the surrounding environment.
She was tied up, this should be a woodshed!
…
"Wake up, girl." The madam came in carrying a plate.
"Mrs. Yu, what do you mean?" Qiao Xi gestured to her tied hands and feet.
"Young lady, you don't know. Men come to my place to have fun. It's very inconvenient for you to stay with that young man all the time."
Qiao Xi: "..." What can he do with his body that can just get off the ground?
‘Dong dong dong’
The madam was called out before she could say a few words.
Through the silhouette of the window, you can see that the other person is Cuiwei, the top girl in the building.
——
"What's wrong, didn't you see it?"
"Mrs. Yu, he doesn't understand amorous feelings at all." The woman covered her face and said coquettishly.
"What did Mrs. Yu tell you just now? Are you being reserved again?"
"No, I followed your instructions as soon as I came in. When I took care of him and drank the medicine, I pretended to sprinkle the medicine on his clothes. However, the young man wore too many clothes and accused him of being careless and kicked him out. He even vomited anxiously.
Blood."
The madam waved her hand and asked her to go down.
"Sister, what should we do now?" Linsan asked next to her.
