Chapter 469 Opening the Live Broadcast Room
The road on the second day was even more difficult to travel, and it started to rain in the afternoon. Even though the officials were wearing straw raincoats and bamboo hats while sitting on the shafts of the carts, their clothes were still soaked by the rain.
Some people began to curse: the prisoners were enjoying themselves in the car, but they had to suffer outside.
The mountain road became increasingly difficult to travel on, and the sky became darker. The officer in charge gave orders to settle down on a slightly flatter part of the hillside nearby.
The escorts began to build tents against the trees to shelter from the rain, but they had no way to make a fire to cook, so they shared the leftover food from lunch.
Su Qianqian brought hot water to Zhuang Yan's car. Wang Yuke and Madam Qin were in her car.
"Young lady, be alert. These are all exiles. No one will know what happens in the wilderness." Su Qianqian made a joke and left.
That night the commander gave an order to put chains on all the prisoners to prevent them from escaping in the dark, and the men were gathered together for guarding.
All of this seemed normal, except that the officials were very nervous and did not ask Su Qianqian for wine.
The four corners of tarpaulins were tied to four large trees. Under the tarpaulins, the six men of the Qin family sat cross-legged, intentionally or unintentionally surrounding Qin Hanjue in the middle.
The rain was pattering, and the torches lit by the escorts shone like will-o'-the-wisp on the stiff faces of the officials. They looked towards the commander from time to time.
Finally, Qin Hanjue was the first to fall down with his head tilted, and then the others slowly fell to the ground. The commander then smiled and waved his hand, and the officers drew their swords and approached carefully.
One of the commanders on horseback was eager to make a contribution, so he was the first to raise his knife and chop at Qin Hanzhang!
But the man who had clearly fallen to the ground suddenly raised the chain in his hand, wrapped around the sword that was chopped in front of him, and pulled it with the momentum and kicked it, and the commander screamed and flew out.
"Quick, let's do it together!" The leader of the police realized that he had been tricked, and hurriedly ordered his men to attack together, taking advantage of the Qin family's hands and feet being tied up to get rid of them first.
With a few "swoosh" sounds, those bodyguards who usually looked like good-for-nothings suddenly pounced over like cheetahs, standing in front of the Qin family and standing with the officials.
These officers were carefully selected and quite skilled, but they were still no match for Jiang Baipin and his brothers, and they were all captured alive within a quarter of an hour.
"You, you actually dared to confront the officials, this is treason!"
The leader of the officers shouted at the top of his lungs, and only then did he believe that his initial intuition was correct; that ugly woman was indeed the problem.
"Fight? Against whom? You? No, you won't have a chance to report."
Su Qianqian thought of the original plot. The original owner was dragged out and humiliated by officials during exile. Xin Jilan, Du and He were all killed by them. None of these people were innocent.
Jiang Baipin didn't even blink, he slashed the leader's neck with a sword, and his brothers dragged him and threw him off the cliff.
The rain quickly washed away the blood, leaving no trace at all. This was why the commander chose to take action at this time and place.
This action frightened the remaining officers and they all shouted for mercy.
"Tell me, who told you to do this? Maybe I'm satisfied and in a good mood, so I spared the one who said it first." Su Qianqian frowned and quietly took a step back. The bloody smell was still there.
"I said, it was the eldest princess! The eldest princess wanted to avenge her son, so she ordered us to kill the people from Wuning Marquis' Mansion on the road!"
"Yes, that person is the housekeeper of the Princess's Mansion!"
Two officers answered one after another. They were the commanders of the other two horsemen.
"Very good, but I am not satisfied with this answer!" Su Qianqian said slowly.
Two brothers from Mingyue Tower came over, and in front of their horrified eyes, they suddenly chopped the man unconscious with their knives and dragged him to the other side of the cliff.
"Girl, please spare us. We know nothing. We are just minions following orders. Please spare us!"
The rest of the people cried and begged for mercy.
"From today on, you must serve the people of Wuning Marquis' Mansion well until they are safely sent to Huizhou for handover. If there is anything that makes them dissatisfied, please don't bother."
Su Qianqian said lightly, and the face actually didn't look so ugly anymore.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The officials felt as if they had been pardoned and finally found a glimmer of hope. They were grateful to Su Qianqian.
"Also, where did the three of them go? Do you know how to tell them?" Su Qianqian asked.
"They... they were riding horses on a mountain road. It was raining and the road was slippery, so the horses got scared and fell off a cliff!" An official made up a story without any instruction.
"Yes, that's right. There is no trace of the body left in the abyss!" another person quickly echoed.
"Okay, good. Do you know what to do now?" Su Qianqian looked at them.
The brothers from Mingyue Tower let them go, and they immediately bent over and carefully approached the second master and his men, opened the chains respectfully, and wiped off the rain water that had been brought in from the ground with their sleeves.
After removing the chains from all the female relatives, Madam Du reached out and grabbed Su Qianqian, tears streaming down her face:
"Why are you so troubled, kid? We misunderstood you in the past and made you suffer a lot. Han Zhang realized that the situation was not right, so he decided to keep you out of it. I didn't expect you to be so stubborn."
"Let's not talk about this for now. It's not safe yet. Since they insist on taking action before entering Huizhou, it means Huizhou is safe. Let's hurry over as soon as possible."
Su Qianqian supported Mrs. Du and changed the subject.
The rain gradually subsided in the second half of the night, and by dawn the sky was clear, as if nothing had happened last night.
Su Qianqian opened her eyes and suddenly heard the familiar sound of fireworks exploding!
[Congratulations, my dear lady, you have exceeded 50 million merit points, and the Doudou live broadcast room function has been opened! 】The system’s voices are filled with joy.
[What, the live broadcast room is opened already? 】Su Qianqian's voice trembled a little.
She didn't dare click on the icon. The feeling of homesickness was so real, but she was also afraid that it would be different from what she expected, and she would be disappointed if she clicked on it.
But she was eager to see what was hidden inside.
She tried hard to suppress the urge to click on the screen, and washed and ate as usual. Only when she was on the road again and sitting in the carriage did Su Qianqian nervously click on the Doudou live broadcast room.
It is called a live broadcast room, but in fact it looks like a video platform. There should not be many live broadcasts at this time, and most of them do not have the red "live broadcast" word on the icon.
However, Su Qianqian discovered that this live broadcast room had similarities with the live broadcast platform she used before, but also had many differences.
First of all, this live broadcast platform does not only correspond to the world she is in. There are too many races and costumes that Su Qianqian has never seen before. She doesn’t know which era or world they are from.
Out of curiosity, Su Qianqian clicked on a video, but the scene she saw scared her so much that she quickly backed out. It was clearly the underworld!
