Yi Chenjing's departure brought Bai Qige's miserable life to an abrupt end. Although she was restrained, at least no one treated her harshly. Daily food and water were delivered regularly by the eunuch. Aside from the lack of freedom, she was able to live without worries.
Already.
During this period, Bai Qige also heard Su Yan's suspicions and inquiries several times. However, her biological sister interrupted and blocked her. Su Yan never discovered that Bai Qige, who had claimed to be out with the seventh prince Yi Chenjing, was in the house. Concubine Jing was ill.
Not to mention coming to investigate, more than ten days passed, and Bai Qige sat quietly in a dark room like an abandoned concubine in a cold palace, refusing to say a word for help even when she heard Su Yan's voice.
Why should she ask for help? She is living a very good life now, with food, drink, clothes and a bed to sleep on. Yi Chenjing has promised never to take action against the Bai family, and is just waiting for him to return with the truth, and everything will be finally settled.
However, people's hearts are different and the way of heaven is uncertain. Bai Qige wants to wait for the ending in peace, but some people and things do not allow her to be so comfortable. She insists on throwing two pebbles into the rarely calm water to cause ripples.
The first person to break Bai Qige's silence was ridiculous to say the least. He was not the prince or nobleman, but the entire Lianchenxuan, and could even be said to be the lowest status person in the entire Yao Kingdom palace, serving a hard labor sentence.
Although those eunuchs were castrated, at least they still had status and status, but these people didn't even have status. They sweated all day long and were whipped to do hard work. If they made the slightest mistake, they were beaten and scolded, and half their lives were lost at every turn. Maybe it was because they felt depressed for a long time.
Life or death no longer mattered, and some of the hard laborers had evil thoughts. When going to and from the harem to work, they would always cause some trouble and make the chickens and dogs restless.
One evening, the young eunuch brought food to Bai Qige, but when he left, he carelessly forgot to lock the iron chain on the door, which gave the opportunity to several hard workers who came to build the inner walls of Lianchenxuan.
Taking a nap after meals has become a habit that Bai Qige has developed during these days of boredom. She lies on her side, and a furnace of elegant incense kindly lit by the little eunuch curls into her nose, making her even more sleepy. Closing her dry eyes, Bai Qige recalls
Spending every moment with his family in Zhaoguo, he fell asleep unknowingly.
In the dream, her mother took the amulet she left at the city gate of Liang Shi and put it on her with a gentle smile. However, the amulet somehow became very heavy, so heavy that Bai Qige couldn't bear it. She pressed her chest and couldn't even breathe.
It has to be difficult.
My mother is far away in Zhaoguo, this is just a dream.
The remaining consciousness desperately called for the body to respond, but something tightly bound the limbs, preventing them from moving at all.
Bai Qige opened her eyes suddenly, there was no mother in front of her, no kind smile, only the lust of a strange man; her face was distorted by fire, and her ears were hot and panting, dirty hands were pressing heavily on her mouth, nose and chest, and the pain was coming from her nose.
The smell of sweat is disgusting.
Cold sweat soaked clothes instantly.
I thought that Lianchenxuan was the residence of the prince and there would be no accidents, so when the young eunuch forgot to lock the door, Bai Qige didn't say a word to remind him, and even fell asleep without taking any precautions. Who would have thought that a small negligence could actually cause a man-made disaster?
The man obviously had bad intentions, and desire surged in his greedy eyes.
Bai Qige was the only one living in this compound, and Yi Chenjing did not allow anyone to approach except the eunuch who was responsible for delivering meals. Even if he shouted for help, no one would hear him.
The clothes were dirty, the body was strong, and they were full of obscenities. Bai Qige concluded that these three people were undoubtedly serving hard labor. The younger one was pressing her shoulders and pressing her hard on the bed, and the other one was covering her mouth and nose tightly to prevent her from making any sound.
Alarming the others, the tallest and oldest man climbed onto the bed, his heavy body about to collapse.
No one would have thought that such a remote corner would actually live with a married princess, and a few men of humble status and dominated by desire were about to carry out activities that have not changed for thousands of years, even though they did not know who was suppressing them.
What will be the consequences?
If he knew, maybe he wouldn't be so bold as to risk his own life for a quick gain.
The burly man was so excited that he couldn't untie his waist belt after struggling for a long time. It was this brief moment that gave Bai Qige a chance to calm down and think. She held her breath and concentrated, quietly moved her limbs, and her mind was racing to calculate the possible risks and consequences of each method of resistance.
Probability of success.
Finally untying the belt around his waist, the burly man kept laughing, completely unaware that the woman beneath him was extremely calm and had a pair of cold eyes.
Whether she was lonely in her previous life or encountered misfortune in this life, she taught Bai Qige one sentence: Never expect others to save you, you must save yourself.
The moment the burly man threw off his clothes and threw himself down, a streak of blood shot up into the sky, and a scream cut through the dusk, startling the rising bright moon. Thick blood filled the airtight room, and the burly man was struck by scarlet blood drops falling on his face.
I was so stunned that I forgot how to react for a moment. I stared blankly at the young companion in front of me, holding his head and falling to the ground. Hot blood kept pouring out, and in a short time, a huge pool of blood formed on the ground.
The sudden change caught people off guard. Before the other two slave laborers could figure out what happened, a heavy iron chain came out of the air and hit their foreheads and shoulders accurately. The iron chain was so heavy that it immediately pressed down on Bai Qige.
The lying burly man was pulled under the bed. Bai Qige took advantage of no one to suppress her and instantly turned over and jumped up. Unknown at some point, the finger-thick hemp rope behind her was untied and fell loosely to the ground. Her long black hair flowed down her waist like a waterfall, and her hair was tied up.
The wooden hairpin is held tightly in the hand, with two dots of rich red dripping from the sharp end.
Bai Qige's career as a special forces soldier, who walked the line between life and death, made her accustomed to taking precautions. Even though Yi Chenjing, who posed the greatest threat to her, was not in the palace, she still seized every opportunity to strive for maximum freedom of movement for herself.
The eunuch responsible for guarding Bai Qige would never have imagined that he would carefully bring her food every day, loosen her ties, and then tie her hands behind her back again. The knot that she thought was difficult to untie would actually seem like nothing to Bai Qige.
A part of the rope was secretly nestled in the palm of his hand, no matter how hard he tied it, as long as Bai Qisheng loosened his palm and let go of the extra piece of hemp rope, no matter how tight the binding was, it would no longer exist.
This is one of the escape techniques. Bai Qige originally planned to use it to deal with Yi Chenjing's shackles at the critical moment, but unexpectedly it was wasted by three stupid men with sperm in their brains.
After she quietly freed her hands, Bai Qige grabbed the wooden hairpin by the pillow and stabbed it hard into the neck of the man who was pressing her shoulders. Then she kicked the chains on her feet and forced the other two away from her, instantly turning the situation around.
Escape from the tiger's mouth.
Self-rescue does not necessarily require sheer strength, but calmness and quickness are more important. Fortunately, Bai Qige has both of these qualities. This is the fundamental reason why she became a captain of the special operations team at such a young age.
"If you don't want to die, get out immediately."
Speaking coldly, Bai Qige did not hold back at this moment. Her cold face was even worse than that of Yi Chenjing. She was dressed in thin plain clothes and had a murderous look.
The man stabbed by the hairpin was seriously injured. The two people beside him had no choice but to try to stop the bleeding. When he suddenly turned around, murderous intent filled his eyes. He had been enslaved and humiliated for a long time and had accumulated too much resentment. He already hated the superior nobles to his bones.
, now a seemingly weak and weak harem slave girl dares to take action against them, which is unacceptable.
However, these two people did not know Bai Qige's true identity. When they saw her tied up and chained, they thought she was a palace maid who was being punished. They became so jealous that they picked up the stool next to them and threw it at Bai Qige.
If there were no shackles, Bai Qige would be 120% sure of knocking the two of them to the ground in a short time. However, the fact cannot be ignored. Although the wounds on his limbs were mostly healed after more than ten days of rest, he still had no leeway to move. He could not move freely in the face of the situation.
She could only avoid the enemies, and she had no other weapons besides the hairpin in her hand. The only hope she could have at the moment was that someone heard the noise and came to help, otherwise she would definitely be the one to suffer the consequences.
The thin figure ducked and dodged one attack after another. However, after a while, the two opponents also learned the lesson. They surrounded each other on the left and right, and used weapons when no one was close. Bai Qige was forced to have nowhere to escape.
He raised his hand and took the attack abruptly, taking three steps back.
Behind me, there is no way out.
Compared with his experience, the well-trained Bai Qige is superior; compared with his physical strength, his reborn body has nothing left to sigh.
After several struggles, she was panting. No matter how many thoughts she had, or how quickly she reacted, it was hard to overcome her physical exhaustion. After a moment of sluggishness, a hard stool hit her back hard, and her chest felt heavy and exhausted. Bai Qige lay softly beside the bed, looking at the burly figure.
Close but unable to do anything.
Holding the wooden hairpin tightly, I raised my head coldly. The night after dusk invaded my eyes, and the frost was flying.
At this time, Bai Qige is like a trapped animal waiting for a desperate fight. As long as the enemy is close, even if they have to die together, no one will taint this body. In this world, this skin is the only one that truly belongs to her.
Only by not letting Yi Chenjing make any excuses can she protect the Bai family and her most cherished relatives.
If there is no way to retreat, then we have to stain our hands with blood and kill as a crime.
The round stool was raised high, and time seemed to freeze for a moment. Eyes, ears, mouth, and heart were all ready for a fight to the death, waiting for the opportunity to come.
"You dare to offend the people, how dare you insult the princess!" A sharp shout broke through the chaos of the battle, and three eyes looked towards the door. The man in the Chinese robe stood proudly, the sword in his hand was so bright and sharp that half of his eyes were hard to see.
See.
Unexpected, but finally saved.
Bai Qige unconsciously showed a grateful smile, which caused a little worry and pity in the man's eyes, just like he had clumsily blocked her drink that day.
Yi Chenxuan, the fifth prince of the Yao Kingdom, was a completely different person from Yi Chenjing.
As Yi Chenxuan yelled, firelight and chaotic footsteps came in a hurry. The frightened slave dropped his stool and slumped down on the ground. The blood that had been ferocious just now suddenly faded away and turned as pale as paper - who would have thought of being locked in a room.
The frail woman inside turned out to be the prince's concubine? They had no choice but to sacrifice their lives to make amends for this disaster.
The eunuch responsible for looking after Bai Qige was so frightened that he blamed himself for his negligence while hurriedly asking people to take away the three hard laborers who had caused trouble. He turned left and right and kept asking Bai Qige if he was injured.
"Thank you very much, Fifth Prince, for saving your life."
"You're welcome." Yi Chenxuan put away his sword and reached out to help Bai Qige up. He frowned slightly, turned to the little eunuch and ordered, "Open these shackles."
This sentence was more terrifying than seeing the person who was ordered to guard being injured. The young eunuch fell to his knees with a plop, and banged his forehead on the ground: "It can't be done, it must not be done! Please spare the life of the fifth prince.
If His Highness comes back and sees the shackles opened, I won’t be able to explain it to you!"
"I told you to open it. Where did all this nonsense come from?"
Bai Qige was about to make peace with her, when suddenly she felt a blur in front of her eyes and her body lightened up. When she looked closely, she saw Yi Chenxuan holding her sideways in his arms, and his clear eyebrows could be seen when he raised his eyes.
Despite the blood stains on the little eunuch's forehead, Yi Chenxuan remained unmoved. He grabbed the key from the little eunuch's waist, unlocked the shackles, hugged Bai Qige tightly and left.
"Seventh brother came back and asked him to find me. I will take care of him first."
