"Oh, then please take good care of me from now on. Do you know how to comb my hair?"
"Of course I will. Princess, come and sit down and take a look at our sisters' cooking. Do you like it?"
After Qin Qingyao packed up, she had a simple breakfast with Liushuang and Feixue, and then went out.
When they arrived at the city gate, Lin Xiafeng's carriage was already waiting by the roadside.
Haha, this girl is quite positive!
Qin Qingyao sat in the carriage and silently apologized to the two sisters Liushuang and Feixue in his heart. He was really sorry for letting you encounter such a thing on the first day of taking office.
Judging from the way Zheng Mingxuan and his men treated Baiji, they were not gentlemen who would show sympathy to women. The two of them would definitely suffer.
Qin Qingyao only told them to ambush, but did not specify the specific location of the ambush, nor did he agree on a specific time to take action.
Qin Qingyao didn't know whether they would take action when they left or when they came back.
So she was quite nervous along the way. Even when she reached the mountain gate, she didn't see the four of them coming out. Qin Qingyao and Lin Xiafeng got off the carriage and walked into the temple.
When Lin Xiafeng saw Qin Qingyao, he smiled and asked, "Why does the princess look a little nervous? Let's go and ask for incense first."
"No, why should I be nervous about praying to Buddha? I'm not a ghost!"
The two followed the little nun's guidance, worshipped Buddha, burned incense, donated incense money, had vegetarian meals in the temple, and listened to the young monks chanting for a while.
Lin Xiafeng wanted to drag Qin Qingyao to draw lots, but Qin Qingyao firmly refused!
"Drawing lots is just like fortune-telling. I don't like fortune-telling. Fate is like Schrödinger's cat, inherently fickle. But once you peek into it, it's set in stone and difficult to change."
Lin Xiafeng, "What cat?"
"Oh, I mean, I'm a cat, so I have nine lives. I can always turn misfortune into fortune, and my life will definitely be prosperous, no need to calculate! Miss Lin, do you have anything else to do? If you don't, let's go back. I'm afraid we'll be late and my prince will be worried!"
Lin Xiafeng said in a very good-tempered manner, "Okay, then I won't count it either."
Since you are so eager to die, why should I stop you!
On the way down the mountain, they were silent. When the two of them were together, the atmosphere was really uncomfortable.
Qin Qingyao is very talkative in front of the person she likes, but in front of the person she doesn't like, she really can't think of any topic to talk about no matter how hard she racks her brains. There is a thick and unbreakable awkwardness in the air.
Suddenly, Liu Shuang and Fei Xue protected Qin Qingyao from the left and right, and said solemnly, "Princess, be careful, something seems to be wrong here!"
Qin Qingyao looked around. This place was halfway up the mountain. The dense forest made it seem a little dark. There was a mountain wall on the left and a valley on the right. It was indeed suitable for an ambush.
Qin Qingyao at least brought two masters, Liushuang and Feixue, while Lin Xiafeng only brought a mediocre Caiwei. It can be said that they cooperated very well, and he was very confident in Zheng Mingxuan and the other three.
Liushuang and Feixue protected Qin Qingyao and walked quickly down the mountain. Before they had walked 200 meters, four big men in black suddenly jumped out and attacked Liuyun and Feishuang without saying a word.
Qin Qingyao looked at the six people fighting with each other, feeling terrified. It was not because she was afraid, but because she was afraid that the four of them would really kill the two new girls.
What about the agreement to kidnap her and Lin Xiafeng? Even if you came to kill me, you should have done something right first. What's the point of going straight to kill her maid?
Are you afraid that I don’t know that you have bad intentions?
Seeing that the two girls were already unable to resist, Qin Qingyao had to speak out, "Hey, heroes, I'll give you whatever you want, just don't hurt my maid!"
It seemed that after being reminded by her, Zheng Mingxuan and the others remembered their mission. They left behind the wounded Liushuang and Feixue, and ran straight to Qin Qingyao and Lin Xiafeng, picked them up and flew away!
This is an easy task. Asking the four of them to pretend to be bandits and kidnap people is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!
So, he was fighting with Liushuang Feixue just now because he had too much free energy and had nowhere to use it?
"Miss!" Caiwei's martial arts skills were not good enough, and she couldn't even touch the corners of the four people's clothes. No matter how anxious she was, she could only cry and shout on the spot.
Feixue's injuries were slightly less severe than Liushuang's. When Qin Qingyao was abducted, she flew after him and ordered Liushuang, "Return to the palace immediately to report to the prince!"
Liushuang knew that chasing after her would only lead to her death, so she turned around and ran down the mountain. In an instant, only Caiwei was left on the mountain road, crying loudly.
Zheng Mingxuan and the other three covered Qin Qingyao and Lin Xiafeng's mouths roughly and took them through the woods, almost making Qin Qingyao vomit.
Then, in the forest, I found a small wooden house built by a hunter. I don’t know how long it has been since anyone came here. Mushrooms have grown on the beams and pillars!
Qin Qingyao was truly worried about herself now. "Please, Wu Gang! Wu Yu! Qi Mo! Wu Cheng! My life is in your hands. If you lose me, you won't even be able to find my body!"
Zheng Mingxuan and the other three acted very well. After throwing Qin Qingyao and Lin Xiafeng to the ground, they tied them up with ropes like crabs.
Qin Qingyao glared and shouted angrily, "Hey! Are you crazy? Why are you tying me up? Tying her up is enough. To avoid any more trouble, kill her quickly!"
After Qin Qingyao finished speaking, Zheng Mingxuan and the other four stood still. Lin Xiafeng, who was also tied up, suddenly laughed, "Haha, hahahaha, Qin Qingyao, are you trying to make me laugh to death?"
"I thought you'd perform a few more scenes to satisfy your craving. I was so ready to cooperate with you, but you just can't keep your composure? I'm so disappointed!"
Qin Qingyao glared at Lin Xiafeng, "What do you mean by that?"
Lin Xiafeng sneered, stood up, and then the rope on his body fell off.
It turned out that the rope on her body was not tied at all, but was held in her own hands.
Qin Qingyao was shocked and angry. "What do you mean by this? Why are you tying me up instead of her? Are you trying to rebel?"
"Rebellion? Qin Qingyao, you are truly hopelessly stupid! Do you think those four are your guards? Let me tell you! King Wu Ling personally gave them to me two years ago!"
"From that time on, they have nothing to do with the Wuling Palace. Their master is me, not you, so how can they be said to be rebelling?"
Qin Qingyao said, "Since they are your dogs, why not keep them at home and guard the house? Why would you send them back to the Yanling Army?"
"How dare you ask? Isn't it because you can't tolerate King Wu Ling's concern for me that you asked him to call these people back? You really are a forgetful person!"
Qin Qingyao rolled her eyes to the sky. Dugu Yu recalled these four people to the Yanling Army without mentioning a single word to her. In the original novel, these four people never left Lin Xiafeng's side. How could she possibly know?
If she knew, she would definitely disagree!
"I see. I trusted you four so much and entrusted you with such an important mission. You truly disappoint me!"
Zheng Mingxuan and the others simply took off their veils and showed Qin Qingyao a look of contempt and disdain.
"Princess, don't make yourself sound so innocent. After all, you've never asked us brothers who we're working for!"
"Tsk, you'll tell me if I ask you? Fine, I'll just ask you one question. Did you kill Baiji?"
This was the secret code Qin Qingyao agreed upon with Wu Gang and the other three. As long as she found out the cause of Baiji's death, they could show up and arrest him.
But before Zheng Mingxuan could respond to her, Lin Xiafeng interrupted, "Are you still thinking about that little maid? The princess is truly a loyal person!"
"Although this cabin isn't as nice as that dilapidated temple, it's the place you chose for your own burial, and it's worthy of your worthless life!"
Your life is worthless. I don’t know how valuable my life is!
"I always thought that killing you wouldn't be easy, because Dugu Yu really protected you so well. I originally planned to keep you alive and let you watch with your own eyes as I took back everything you stole!"
"But I didn't expect that before I even started, you'd find such a convenient way to die! How long do you think it would take them to find your body? Would you have already rotted by then?"
Qin Qingyao felt a headache when she saw Lin Xiafeng's smug face. "If you want to kill me, just do it now. Stop talking nonsense!"
"Haha, are you so anxious to die? But I really don't want to let you die quickly. Why are you so stupid? Why are you so clever as to seek death?"
"Why can't you wait for me? Why can't you wait until I send Ling Jingxuan, Dugu Yu, and the Qin family to hell one by one, and then it's your turn?"
"I don't want you to die so soon. I want you to have tasted all the pain I've tasted and endured all the suffering I've endured!"
"I want you to watch helplessly as all you loved left you. I want you to cry like me, blinded by tears every day, watching your own blood trickle out of your body, feeling your own death and your body stiffening!"
"I worked so hard to create a surprise for you, and before I could even put everything in front of you, you put your neck in my hands. Why are you so annoying?!"
Qin Qingyao's mouth twitched uncontrollably. Was this girl crazy? How could she say something so creepy?
"So are you going to kill me or not? If not, can you let me go home early? I can return them to you, and I promise to keep everything that happened today a secret and never tell anyone a word!"
However, in Lin Xiafeng's opinion, Qin Qingyao is the one with a abnormal mind. Is he so anxious to die?
"Don't worry, even though you're annoying, I'll still give you a chance to be a good person and make your name known in history. After today, everyone in the world will know that you, Princess Wu Ling, died protecting me. How great!"
Lin Xiafeng took two steps back after he finished speaking, looked at Qin Qingyao with a smile, and ordered coldly, "Kill her!"
