Chapter 586
Yunxi nodded and followed the girl.
Whenever a banquet is held, a changing tent is always provided for the guests, and the Eastern Palace is no exception.
The girl kept asking questions as she headed towards the changing tent. Chen Qiang watched this scene and felt even more at ease.
What can you do if you don't even know the way?
When she reached the front of the tent, Chen Qiang stopped.
The two were not yet close enough to enter the tent together.
Yunxi went inside by herself, while the girl and Chen Qiang stood guard outside.
There was a rustling sound inside the tent for a while, then there was no more movement.
After waiting a while, Chen Qiang frowned, pushed aside the girl blocking her way, and strode inside.
But where was Yunxi now, inside the tent?
Chen Qiang knew something was wrong. She turned around and caught up with the girl who was trying to escape in a few steps, shoving her to the ground. "Where did you take Xi'er? Tell me!"
The girl shook her head in terror, "I don't know, I don't know anything!"
Just then, a slow, deliberate voice rang out: "What's going on?"
Chen Qiang looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yun Wan standing not far away, looking down at her: "Princess Consort, this is the Eastern Palace, and this young lady is also a distinguished guest of the Eastern Palace. If Princess Consort wants to make a move, shouldn't she choose a time and place?"
As the saying goes, even when beating a dog, one must consider its owner. Chen Qiang's actions in the Eastern Palace are unjustified!
Chen Qiang ground her teeth.
Yun Wan stepped forward and helped the girl up: "If anything happens, I can help the Crown Princess."
The two stood facing each other, and sparks seemed to fly in the air.
——
At this moment, Yunxi was bound hand and foot and thrown into a filthy woodshed.
A burly old woman stepped forward and yanked the gag out of her mouth: "She really does have a vixen-like appearance! No wonder she made our girl suffer so much!"
"That's right! The Crown Princess is in a terrible mood because our young lady is having a hard time at the Marquis's residence. She can't even eat. This time, let's deal with this vixen and see how she tries to make things difficult for our young lady in the future!"
The women hit it off immediately.
Just as they were about to make their move, one of them suddenly rolled his eyes and said, "Hey, this guy is so good-looking. It would be such a waste if he just died like this."
The others looked at her and asked, "What do you want?"
"My son has never tasted the pleasures of a woman before! This is the Crown Prince's woman, if only my son could be so lucky..."
The group exchanged glances and couldn't help but laugh: "You, as a mother, are really going to great lengths for your son! Even at a time like this, you still can't forget to let him have a little treat!"
The man chuckled twice.
Clearly, they didn't think Yunxi could pull any more tricks, and had already treated Yunxi like a fish on a chopping board.
"However, the young lady ordered that the person be dealt with immediately. Since you wanted your son to come, we're also taking a risk..."
The old woman immediately said, "Don't worry, ladies, after this is all over, I'll treat you all to a big meal!"
"You said it yourself, so it's settled!"
Everyone glanced at Yunxi again.
She hasn't woken up yet, and the ropes binding her are so tight, so even if she does wake up, there's nothing to be afraid of.
So everyone turned and left.
"Snap."
With a very faint sound, the ropes binding Yunxi suddenly loosened.
Yunxi opened her eyes.
Not only did she wake up, she also cut the rope!
She was using the bracelet that Zhong Jie had given her.
The bracelet has a hidden mechanism; by gently pressing the gemstone on it, a sharp blade will pop out from the bracelet.
