When Xie Yingmian transmigrated to become Prince Ling's joy-bringing consort, Prince Ling had only one breath left.
She was being held by the wet nurses, forced to drink poisoned wine as ...
Chapter 270: It’s Not Easy for Her
When Wang He said this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He seemed to be struggling.
After struggling for a moment, he slowly uttered two words: "Eunuch."
Qingxiao widened his eyes.
She covered her mouth with her hands, looking innocent: "Yes, is it the eunuch in the play?"
"No." Wang He lowered his voice, "It's the eunuch in the palace."
"Sister Cuiyu, I don't know any more news."
"All I know is that they came to Feiyang County to look for a fugitive. Everyone related to the fugitive has been arrested, and no one's plea is of any use."
"A few years ago, a general named Zhou arrived. He was of very high status and seemed to have a token from His Royal Highness Prince Ling. When our county governor saw the token, he kowtowed and knelt. Even the eunuch had to kneel when he saw the token."
"General Zhou was also reckless. He went straight to the eunuch to ask for the person. I don't know what happened between them, but I have never seen General Zhou since then."
"Sister Cuiyu." Wang He sighed, "Your father is unlucky to be involved in such a thing."
"This is no longer something we, the little minions, can interfere with. The man your mother is looking for is most likely a liar. Don't let yourself be fooled."
"I'm so sorry, I can't help you..."
Qing Xiao held Wang He's hand and shook his head: "Brother Wang He."
"I know."
"I know you're doing this for my own good. You've tried your best."
"My father was unlucky enough to be dragged into the struggle above. It was his fate. I..."
Qing Xiao, tears in her eyes, grabbed the corner of Wang He's clothes and said, "Can I go see my dad? Just for a moment."
"Brother Wang He, if I can just see my father, I'm willing to do anything."
Wang He's throat tightened.
He was unwilling to take risks.
But, Miss Cuiyu said that she was willing to do anything. So, she must be willing to give him her body, right?
Wang He weighed the pros and cons for a long time.
The people from the small restaurant have been arrested for over a month.
The interrogation that should have been completed has already been completed.
Although those people were imprisoned, they were guarded by the jailers of Feiyang County. The number of people brought by the eunuch was limited, so they were used to hunt down other people.
If you just go and take a look...
"Okay." The green worm in Wang He's head overcame his rationality. "I'll find you a set of yamen runner's uniforms. You come with me to the prison. When I go to pick up the prisoners, you look at your father from a distance."
"Remember, don't make any noise."
"If you make any noise, you, I, and your father will all die."
Qingxiao agreed.
She followed Wang He, changed into the yamen uniform, put on men's makeup, bought roast chicken and wine, and entered the prison.
Wang He is familiar with all the jailers.
After getting the roast chicken and wine, they happily shared them.
They didn't ask any questions about the young yamen runners brought by Wang He.
Wang He whispered to Qing Xiao, "Your father and the others are being held over there. When I bring up the prisoners later, sneak over and take a look. Remember, come back after taking a look."
"Don't make any noise. If anyone asks, just say it's your first time here and you're lost. I'll cover for you."
Qingxiao agreed readily and slipped to the place Wang He pointed.
As soon as I got closer, I smelled a bloody smell.
The people imprisoned in the prison were the people from the small restaurant.
They were all hung high up, with not a single piece of good meat on their bodies.
The person most seriously injured was the shopkeeper.
Qingxiao had seen the shopkeeper's portrait and recognized him at a glance.
Perhaps these people were too badly injured to escape. There were no experts guarding nearby, and even the jailers were secretly drinking and eating meat in the distance.
"Yu Changdong." Qingxiao shouted.
Yu Changdong heard someone calling his name in a daze.
He struggled to open his eyes.
In the bloody blur, I saw a young yamen runner in yamen runner's uniform.
"I was sent by King Ling." Qingxiao took out the token and identified himself.
Yu Changdong glanced at the token casually, then closed his eyes again, saying nothing and ignoring everything.
Qingxiao was extremely angry.
What the hell.
In order to get in, she acted for so long and even grabbed the hand of a greasy man. It was a huge sacrifice.
Even so, Yu Changdong still thought she was a liar?
"You suspect me, don't you? Fine, then you can just wait here to die." Qing Xiao said, "I'll personally capture that old eunuch and interrogate him."
Yu Changdong opened his eyes again and uttered two words with difficulty: "Code."
Qingxiao: ...
Yu Lingye never told her the secret code.
Yu Lingye only gave her a token.
"There's no secret code." Qing Xiao said, "Yu Lingye never told me anyway."
"He only gave me this token. Oh, the token allows me to withdraw a maximum of 1,000 taels of silver each time. Is that considered a secret code?"
Yu Changdong: "You are right."
Qingxiao:?
No, how did she get it right?
Yu Changdong cherishes words like gold: "Ping'an Lane, Liao Qingshan."
After saying these words, Yu Changdong closed his eyes and refused to say another word or look at Qingxiao again.
Qingxiao didn't bother with them.
"Everyone, open your mouth."
"I have medicine specially made by Princess Ling."
Yu Changdong didn't act stubborn this time and opened his mouth obediently.
Seeing this, the others also opened their mouths.
Qingxiao moved his fingers, and six pills fell steadily into the mouths of six people.
After feeding the pills.
Qingxiao returned to Wang He as quickly as possible.
Wang He was carrying the prisoner out and was relieved to see Qingxiao return safely.
He led people out of the prison.
Wang He, this little fish, is still useful. Qing Xiao did not kick him away, but made an appointment with Wang He to meet again in the evening.
Meet in the evening.
What can a single man and a single woman do at night?
Wang He felt so elated at the thought of being the groom tonight.
Qingxiao noticed Wang He's disgusting look.
She almost vomited.
It's not easy for a good bionic person to have to sell her body.
She will ask Yu Lingye to pay compensation for mental damages later.
Qingxiao quickly moved away.
After confirming that no one was following us, we found Ping'an Lane.
She originally thought it would take some effort, but unexpectedly, she found out Liao Qingshan's address after a little inquiry.
It is called a residence, but in fact it is just a blacksmith shop.
Qingxiao came to the blacksmith shop.
I saw Liao Qingshan, who had lost both legs, swinging the hammer.
The weather is still quite cold.
The blacksmith shop was bustling with activity, and Liao Qingshan was sweating profusely.
Liao Qingshan was busy, and Qingxiao did not interrupt him, but just sat aside and waited.
Wait for Liao Qingshan to make a hoe.
Qing Xiao then spoke softly: "When I heard the name Liao Qingshan, I thought it was a duplicate. I didn't expect you to be the Liao Qingshan."
"I'm very puzzled. The Liao family has been vindicated, and you've also been given a title... I forgot what title it was, but it was either Marquis or Prince. Why don't you enjoy your life in the capital instead of coming here to work as a blacksmith?"
Liao Qingshan ignored Qingxiao.
He picked up a chipped butcher knife and put it in the furnace, ready to melt it down and repair it.
Qing Xiao kept talking for a long time, but the other party didn't respond at all. He rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, let's get down to business. Yu Changdong asked me to come find you."
