Chapter Sixteen: Distress 2
Duan Qingqian only walked around the house in the past two days. An Yunmo had his own business, but Duan Qingqian didn't see him in the past two days.
Early this morning, Grandma Shi had already arrived at Duan Qingqian's room.
"Princess, today is the day to return home in three days. Everything is ready. Princess, do you want to go take a look?"
"No, I can rest assured that grandma will take care of everything."
"yes."
"Can I ask for your permission, Your Majesty?"
"Someone has been sent."
"good."
An Yunmo had arrived outside Duan Qingqian's courtyard at this time, and the maids saluted one after another.
"See you, Your Majesty."
Aunt Shi heard the sound and came out to take a look.
An Yunmo asked, "Is the princess okay?"
Just as Grandma Shi was about to answer, Duan Qingqian had already come out of the room.
"My lord, why are you here?"
"I will accompany you back to your home."
"You stay with me?"
"Um."
Duan Qingqian heard that An Yunmo was quite busy these two days, so she originally thought of telling him that she could just go back by herself, but she didn't expect that he would accompany her back.
Duan Qingqian walked towards An Yunmo and said softly, "Won't I delay your business?"
"No, I am free to make arrangements."
"In this case, you can accompany me back."
An Yunmo nodded.
At the gate of the Prince Regent's Palace, four guards opened the way, followed by five or six guards. Duan Qingqian and An Yunmo were sitting in the carriage. The things that people were talking about before have calmed down a lot now, because An Yunmo has returned to his former self.
Now that he was like that, everyone was guessing that An Yunmo must have taken some magic medicine or had some magical secret method to stand up that day. An Yunmo's enemies were a little more relieved, but they were also more wary of An Yunmo.
.
In the sedan, Duan Qingqian and An Yunmo were speechless for a while. Fortunately, An Yunmo put a few books in the carriage to avoid being bored. Duan Qingqian picked up the book and read it, and An Yunmo looked at Duan Qing.
After a while, I leaned against the carriage and closed my eyes to rest.
Duan Qingqian watched An Yunmo close her eyes, and she relaxed and read a book. Occasionally she opened the curtain to look at the street scene. Although they were silent all the way, they felt relaxed and at ease.
"Your Majesty, Princess, are here."
Duan Qingqian responded softly, "Okay."
Duan Qingqian got off the carriage first, followed by An Yunmo, who was assisted by Asi. After An Yunmo was done, Duan Qingqian and An Yunmo entered the mansion together. Duan Ruhao heard that the regent was also coming with him, so he quickly led the way.
A large family greeted him at the door.
"I have met the prince and the princess."
An Yunmo said lightly, "No courtesy."
Duan Ruhao welcomed An Yunmo and Duan Qingqian into the mansion, and also carried the returning gifts into the mansion one by one.
In the hall, everyone sat down one after another, and the maid served tea. Duan Ruhao respectfully said to An Yunmo, "Your Majesty, the tea in my house is full of coarse tea. Please don't be offended."
An Yunmo responded lightly, as if he was absent-minded.
"Um."
Duan Ruhao hinted at Zhao Lingyue with his eyes, and Zhao Lingyue stood up, walked towards Duan Qingqian and got close to her.
"Qian'er, are you still used to marrying into the regent's palace? Your Majesty, Master, I have something to say to Qian'er about my daughter's family."
An Yunmo looked at Duan Qingqian, who stood up and replied.
"Your Majesty, Qing Qian also has something to talk to her mother."
"Well, I will come over to see you later."
"good."
Zhao Lingyue saw that An Yunmo had asked Duan Qingqian's opinion just now, and felt a little contempt in her heart. She didn't expect that this concubine had some tricks, and the prince actually listened to her opinion?
After Duan Qingqian and the others left, Duan Ruhao and An Yunmo were chatting in an official tone. An Yunmo still looked absent-minded and didn't know whether he heard it or not. Duan Ruhao's mentality was to have a good relationship, so that no matter which prince became the emperor, he would
I won't be offended.
Duan Qingqian was pulled into the courtyard by Zhao Lingyue. Zhao Lingyue was not rude this time. Duan Qingqian's sisters were here. Duan Qingli was going to enter the palace in a few days. At this moment, she was sitting proudly aside.
"Mom, eldest sister, I watched it too. I'm going back to the hospital."
After saying that, he went back to his yard. When he passed by Duan Qingqian, he glanced at Duan Qingqian.
Duan Qingqian didn't care about the arrogant little girl like her. After all, she was a few years older than her, and she didn't have any feelings for the sisters in the house. It was better to talk hypocritically here like Duan Qingli.
Zhao Lingyue greeted them and tried her best to behave as the matron of the house. After all, Duan Qingqian's status was different now. Seeing that An Yunmo cared about Duan Qingqian just now, it would be bad if Duan Qingqian went back and turned a deaf ear to her.
But Duan Qingqian didn't give her a chance. Since they didn't want to be decisive, she would be decisive. If she had this time, she might as well go home and lie down.
"Mom, you and I also know that we don't have any feelings for each other, so it's better not to waste time here. There are still some things to clean up in Qian'er's courtyard. Qian'er will go back to the courtyard first."
After saying that, he left. Since Aunt Yue and Aunt Liu were both there, Zhao Lingyue couldn't help but sulked while holding tea.
As soon as Duan Qingqian entered Cuiyuan, she felt the scent of a stranger. Duan Qingqian stopped, and the two maids following behind also stopped.
Xiao Xin asked, "Princess, what's wrong?"
"I forgot to ask the prince something, please go back."
"Yes, Princess."
The two maids, not doubting that he was there, turned around and were about to walk back when a pebble was thrown towards them, knocking them unconscious.
Duan Qingqian was calm when he saw the two maids falling down, "Why don't you come out and see me?"
The sound came from all over the yard, making it impossible to tell where the person was.
"Haha, the princess married by An Yunmo is quite calm. I'm just curious. Please don't take offense. I just want to invite the princess to have tea."
As she spoke, a stone hit Duan Qingqian. Duan Qingqian immediately realized that she couldn't move. Duan Qingqian really didn't know anything about the acupuncture skills of this era. After Duan Qingqian couldn't move, someone came and tied her with a bag.
, and then carry it away.
An Yunmo seemed to be feeling something in the hall, "A Si, you go to the princess's courtyard and have a look."
"yes."
A Si directly regarded Prime Minister Zuo's house as his own and used Qing Kung Fu. As soon as he flew to the roof, he saw a man carrying something out in the distance. A Si immediately returned and told An Yunmo.
"Your Majesty, someone is carrying something out in the courtyard where the princess is."
At this time, a dart flew in with a note. An Yunmo reached out to catch it and saw what was written on the note.
"Your princess is in the hands of An Yunshuo."
An Yunmo put the note in his hand and instantly crushed it into powder, and said in a cold voice.
"Asi, go to the princess's courtyard and have a look, and immediately send someone to keep an eye on An Yunshuo."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Duan Qingqian was still blindfolded at this time, and she could feel that she was sitting in the carriage. Although Duan Qingqian had no formal master who taught her how to practice internal skills, she had suffered from the internal skills of this world. Duan Qingqian herself had
I have found some mental methods for cultivating internal strength. Although I can't use them freely now, concentration can still play a role. Duan Qingqian is working hard to unblock her own acupuncture points. Her upper body is being touched with acupuncture techniques.
He couldn't move except for his legs, but he couldn't speak or hear what he was saying.
Duan Qingqian secretly held back her inner strength and directed all her energy towards her right shoulder, just hoping to unlock the acupoints on her right hand.
The person in the carriage with Duan Qingqian was completely unaware and rushed the driver of the carriage in a somewhat anxious manner.
"Hurry up, I don't know if we can deceive An Yunmo by using An Yunshuo as a cover."
"Yes, Master."
Suddenly Duan Qingqian let out a muffled cry, and she opened her acupuncture points. The people who led Duan Qingqian were anxious, and at the same time they were sure that Duan Qingqian couldn't open the acupuncture points with their own acupuncture techniques, so they didn't notice Duan Qingqian.
Shallow voice.
Duan Qingqian opened the acupuncture points, immediately took off the black cloth covering his eyes, took off the hairpin on his head, put the sharp end against his neck, his eyes became fierce, and he said in a cold tone
"parking."
Only after hearing this voice did the man realize that he wanted to stop Duan Qingqian. Duan Qingqian immediately saw his purpose, looked at him with cold eyes, and said again.
"I say it again, stop the car, or I will die for you!"
After saying that, he brought the hairpin closer to his neck. The man could slightly see that Duan Qingqian's neck became a little red because of the sharp peak of the hairpin. Unsurprisingly, blood would definitely flow out a little further down.
The man's eyes were full of evil, and his words were also very sarcastic.
"I really didn't expect the Princess Regent to be so secretive."
Duan Qingqian replied coldly, "To each other, why don't you show your true colors to others? Don't you dare?"
This use of internal energy is Duan Qingqian's first official use. She has never been able to find any tricks to use internal energy before. For her, it is to increase her resistance and protection. She will not feel it no matter if she falls or touches it.
Why does it hurt? Because her internal strength protects her body, her body is like a bouncing ball. If she is subjected to any external force, her internal strength will bounce it out. She herself is fine, but when the external force is stronger than her internal strength,
When the time comes, the protective cover will no longer be able to protect it.
The man ordered outside with a cold voice, "Stop the car."
The carriage stopped immediately.
"get off."
When the man saw Duan Qingqian, he only moved his right hand. His left hand was still hanging stiffly on one side, and he said with a smile.
"Why doesn't the acupuncture point on the left hand also be healed if the princess is so capable?"
Seeing this, the man's self-confidence returned a little, and Duan Qingqian, a woman from a deep palace, actually tried to unlock his unique acupuncture technique?
Moreover, he also added several percent of his internal strength into it. Without internal strength, it would be impossible to solve it. In Duan Qingqian's body, he couldn't feel her practicing internal strength at all. This time must be a coincidence. He comforted himself like this. If he knew Duan Qingqian,
Qingqian can talk to him freely now because she can lip-read. I wonder if she will be so angry that Duan Qingqian only solved the acupuncture point on her right hand and nothing else.
Duan Qingqian's internal energy is always hovering in the Dantian. It can only be felt when detecting the pulse or when she uses it. Otherwise, she cannot feel it at all, because Duan Qingqian does not use it externally as soon as people of this era start practicing internal energy.
She has never been able to use it. Although she can no longer fly over walls or grab objects out of thin air after practicing it, she found that it can relieve her pain when she is exposed to external forces, so she keeps practicing.
After getting off the carriage, Duan Qingqian immediately walked to the side. The man stood beside the driver of the carriage. The man mocked, "Princess, I'm getting off the carriage as you asked. There is no village in front of or any shop in the back. Even if you can
What if the acupuncture points below are unlocked?"
"Whatever you can't do, just go backwards and backwards."
When the man didn't leave, Duan Qingqian moved the hairpin on her neck slightly forward and said in a cold voice.
"You must have arrested me because of the prince. I don't know whether you went out of the city to slander my reputation or to threaten the prince. But no matter which one it is, if I die, you will not be able to achieve any purpose. Anyway, the prince and I just just
I don’t have to be the princess to get married. Even if I die, he will definitely dig deep into the ground to find you for the sake of face. Do you think it’s better for me to be alive or dead?”
Of course the man wanted Duan Qingqian alive, so why capture her if he wanted her dead.
"Okay, I'll step back."
The man said and stepped back. Duan Qingqian stepped forward step by step. She actually didn't know where she was going. She just wanted to delay time and see if there was any chance to escape. After all, she was facing two people with martial arts skills.
