38. Chapter 38 Meeting “sisters” for the first time
Author: Yan Rugu
The official envoy read out the imperial edict.
The general meaning is that Qiao Qingqing's identity is unknown. In order to find out the truth, the Prime Minister's Office has temporarily detained Qiao Qingqing in the Tingwei Mansion until the truth comes to light.
Qiao Qingqing was forced out of the house in confusion.
The officials of Tingwei Mansion all looked like Rakshasa, and Qiao Qingqing acted softly and hard, but no one on the other side responded.
Slowly, her heart began to beat.
When entering Tingwei's Mansion, Qiao Qingqing carefully observed the surrounding environment. It was heavily guarded and could not be more appropriately described as "not even a fly can fly out."
The group of people pressed Qiao Qingqing into the most secluded cell, closed the iron door tightly, and soon disappeared outside the door.
Qiao Qingqing wanted to cry but had no tears.
Who will tell her what happened?
However, fortunately, it was safe enough here. The fatigue of the whole night came with sleepiness, Qiao Qingqing turned around and sat on the couch, and fell into a dark sleep.
She was woken up by a pair of rough palms.
Beside the dark sealed stone wall, a pig-headed face covered with acne was looking at her greedily with drool.
His fingertips roamed across Qiao Qingqing's cheeks, causing Qiao Qingqing to get goosebumps wherever they went.
"Get away!"
Qiao Qingqing pushed him away with all her strength and lowered her head to check her collar. Fortunately, it was intact.
She raised her eyes angrily and saw that the other party was still staring at her face, smiling broadly.
"Your skin is so good!"
He moved his steps, stretched out his five fingers towards Qiao Qingqing again, and wanted to continue to move forward.
"You toad, your big fat butt is covered in oil, you are so stinky and shameless! He tui!"
After spraying a mouthful of saliva on the man's cheek, Qiao Qingqing began to regret it.
In this kind of environment, if she angers the other party, she may not know how she will be treated!
Thinking of this, Qiao Qingqing stared at the person in front of her defensively, fearing that he would rush towards her and do something indescribable...
Sure enough, the smile on the man's face disappeared inch by inch.
But the next moment, his lower lip was trembling at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then he covered his face with his hands and cried softly.
It was just a small sob at the beginning, but by the end, it was already hoarse...
Huh? What happened to him?
Qiao Qingqing didn't dare to step forward, she just stood helpless in the corner, staring at his round shoulders that were trembling. She looked so aggrieved!
"I know I'm fat and ugly, do you need to be so straightforward?"
This voice...why is it so coquettish?
Suddenly, a bold idea came together in Qiao Qingqing's mind!
She coughed awkwardly and asked in a low voice, "Are you... a eunuch?"
"You are the eunuch, and all your family are eunuchs!"
He suddenly raised his fat cheeks, his face was covered with tears and snot, and his hurt look made Qiao Qingqing immediately blame herself.
Hiss~ That’s not a eunuch, that’s... a sister?
Qiao Qingqing started to look at people with evil eyes. She shrugged apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I thought you were going to do something wrong to me..."
"Hmph, who cares?" The other party rolled his eyes disdainfully, "I was prettier than you when I was a child, but in the past few years, I have slowly become fatter and have sores on my face..."
Speaking of this, he began to feel sad secretly again, "I saw your face was clean, so I just wanted to touch it."
"That's it..." Qiao Qingqing began to look at the person in front of her carefully. Seeing that he was not very old, she comforted him, "It doesn't matter. Pay attention to your diet and exercise more. After puberty, your face will naturally be clean..."
"Really?"
The other party's face was filled with hope, and that look was quite humorous.
Qiao Qingqing's thoughts turned around and she smiled mysteriously, "How about this, I ask you a few questions, you answer me truthfully, and I will help you look better?"
The other party's eyes widened, "Seriously?"
"Well," Qiao Qingqing nodded pretending to be mysterious and made a gesture of invitation, "What do you call sisters?"
"Thief deer."
"Okay, Thief Deer, where am I now?"
"Tingwei Mansion."
"Tsk, I'm asking you, what level of cell am I in Tingwei Mansion?"
Nonsense, of course she knew that she was in Tingwei's Mansion, but this cell was extremely luxurious. Not only were there no snakes, insects, rats, or ants, it was even better than her bedroom in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Thieving Lu sniffed, "Tianzifang, this is specially prepared for you by the prince."
"Prince? Did he catch me?"
"Weren't you assassinated last night? The prince is busy with other things and can't care about your safety. The prince has killed you again. He has no choice but to resort to tricks and hide you here and order me to protect you."
"You?" Qiao Qingqing looked suspicious, "With your glass heart, can you protect me?"
While talking, an announcement was heard outside the cell:
"Quickly, call the cell leader. The patrolman has lost his key, and now the cell door is all open!"
At that moment, the sense of déjà vu from the American TV series "Prison Break" appeared in Qiao Qingqing's mind. The prisoner in prison had long lost his humanity. What if he rushed here...
She looked around and saw nothing but stone walls.
The noise outside the door slowly began, accompanied by beatings and curses, and the obscene words were unbearable.
Thieving Deer's original fragile expression suddenly disappeared.
He stood up, picked up the iron lock on the desk, ducked out of the cell door, and locked it.
The sound of footsteps outside the iron gate was very close, and Qiao Qingqing's heart beat rapidly.
"I think this is the trick of the prince," Thief Lu drew out his long sword and stared at the iron door, "How could the patrolman lose the key? Even if he lost it, he would have found it quickly, unless it was done deliberately.
.”
"Does he want me to die in a riot?"
"If I'm not wrong, the prisoner who was imprisoned for theft last night is most likely a dead soldier planted by the prince."
As soon as Thief Lu finished speaking, the iron door was broken open with a bang!
A group of vicious prisoners swarmed over and grabbed the beautiful girl in the cell, their greedy eyes suddenly full of desire.
The leaders were obviously too calm.
Although Qiao Qingqing was disgusted, she also agreed with Thieving Deer's analysis.
She stood up and stepped forward, "Thief Lu, can you do it? If not, don't hold on!"
She wanted to say that she still had an overtime card for writing...
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the prisoner had already broken into the iron gate. Qiao Qingqing watched helplessly as Thief Lu punched one after another, raised his sword and dropped it, accurately landing on the intruder's weak spot, hitting the target with one blow!
At that moment, the fat man with a shiny face seemed to be standing in the light...
Half an hour passed, and everyone fell to the ground. Only Thieving Deer was still standing by the iron gate not far away, like a guardian war god.
There were footsteps outside the iron gate. The jailer seemed to be used to Thief Lu's skills, so he just bowed his hands to him and said, "Thank you for your help, Young Master Thief!"
Thieving Lu waved his hand and waited until the mess in front of him was cleaned up and the iron door was closed again before he opened the cell door.
"Sister, how are you?"
He pursed his lips, completely different from the ruthless expression just now.
“Thai pants are hot!”
Qiao Qingqing applauded and shook her head, with "admiration" written all over her face.
Thief Lu let out a proud "hum" and took out a half-eaten candy man from his arms.
When Qiao Qingqing saw this, she snatched it away and threw it on the ground!
"I hate it, what are you doing!" Thief Lu raised his orchid fingers and glared at her fiercely.
"Do you still want to heal your face? If you do, from now on, please quit sugar!"
The thief is doubtful, so Qiao Qingqing returns to the topic:
"Why did the prince kill me? What shady deeds did he want to do?"
