Chapter 122 Cell
Chapter 122 Cell
I don’t know what Qiao thinks of me now that he knows Xiaowu’s situation?
No wonder when Mrs. Qiao knew that he was going to go with him to provide disaster relief, she insisted on sending Qi You to the palace. Could it be that she discovered something was wrong with Mrs. Chen at that time? Yes, that should be the case.
Thinking of all the details of Chen's days, including her sudden illness, it all seemed extremely strange now, and he couldn't help but think deeply about it.
The more he thought about it, the more he found that there were many things wrong with Chen, otherwise how could such a coincidence happen? But he didn't take it to heart at that time. Or rather, he had discovered something, but his feelings for Chen blinded him, and he subconsciously made up for her.
He also threatened Mrs. Qiao at that time. Mrs. Qiao didn't want to go at that time, but he forced her to accompany him. As a result, such a thing happened, and Xiaowu was almost killed. It is obvious that even if Xiaowu was fine, Mrs. Qiao would not have any good feelings towards him. All the warm moments they had spent together during this period would have been shattered because of this incident, because Mrs. Qiao is such a vengeful person.
After all, in Qiao's view, he is definitely on Chen's side now.
Qi Heng had a terrible headache, and there was a hint of uneasiness in his eyes. He suddenly didn't know how to face Qiao when he returned.
Also, he was shocked that a coward like Chen could assassinate Qi You, but the fact was that he had to believe that Chen did it and it was made public.
Qi Heng did not deny that he still had feelings for Chen. Relationships of several years could not be broken up just like that. However, he could not tolerate Chen's assassination of Xiao Wu. It was also the murder of his offspring, which was his Achilles' heel, even if it was someone he cared about. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
He should give an explanation to Qiao and Qi You about this matter, and his father in the palace must be watching as well.
The next day, the group rode at full speed towards Shengjing City.
royal palace.
Qi You's residence.
"Judging from the time, he should be back soon." Qi You muttered to himself while lying on the bed.
He would be able to go back home to see his mother soon. Thinking of this, Qi You's brows softened, but he still felt a little anxious.
It’s not that the palace is hard to endure, but mainly because he wants to see his mother as soon as possible. He didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with his time in the palace. With his grandparents around, he was living a pretty good life.
Thinking of his royal grandfather, Qi You's expression was somewhat complicated.
He really didn't expect that his royal grandfather would give Zhuying to him. When he heard what his royal grandfather said, he was a little stunned.
Zhuying is the emperor's grandfather's right-hand man and is undoubtedly a very powerful person, but the emperor's grandfather gave this person to him. It can be seen that the emperor's grandfather's regard for him has exceeded his imagination.
He could see clearly that during the time they had spent together, his royal grandfather had been somewhat sincere towards him. It was not just because of his intelligence, but because of the love an elder has for a younger person, which came from the heart.
And grandmother.
He knew about his grandfather's expectations, and he also knew that his grandmother was so good to him mostly because of his father. However, they were indeed sincere, but this sincerity was mixed with other things. Qi You had a good impression of them, but it was just a good impression.
Qi You knew clearly that in his heart, they were not comparable to his mother.
On a dark, windy night, it is the time for murder and arson.
Zhu Yun was wearing black clothes and a mask, and he had already arrived outside the Ministry of Justice prison.
During the day, she had already found out where Chen was being held, so it was just the right time for her to come.
In the cell.
Chen curled up in the corner. Not far away, she heard the chirping of a nest of mice. At this moment, she really hated her own good eyesight. She was most afraid of mice. There were traces of tears on her face, which showed how long she had been crying. She looked extremely miserable.
However, there was unprecedented cruelty and overwhelming hatred in those eyes.
Qiao, Qi You, wait until she gets out. When she gets out, she will return today's shame a thousand times over!
If it weren’t for Qi You, how could she have ended up in this situation?
"Ah!!!" Chen felt something on her feet and screamed suddenly. Her face was pale and her eyes were full of fear.
The two secret guards sent by Emperor Jingyuan who were hiding in the dark rolled their eyes in the dark and looked at the woman who was screaming in the cell with expressionless faces.
"What's wrong?! What happened again?!" The jailer who came rushing over after hearing the noise was afraid that something had happened, so he hurried in to ask, but when he saw that Chen was the only one in the cell, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
When Chen saw someone coming, she shouted, "There's a rat! Get rid of it!"
However, the jailer just wanted to spit in her face for disturbing everyone's peace in the middle of the night. They were almost asleep, but they had been scared by this woman three or four times that night. If it weren't for the fact that this person had a different identity and the instructions from their superiors that no one should be killed, they would have to come and check at the slightest sign of trouble, fearing that they could not afford the consequences if something happened. Otherwise, they really wanted to whip her a few times to teach her a lesson.
Taking a few deep breaths to suppress the anger in their hearts, the two jailers looked at Chen with gloomy eyes, walked away without looking back, and ignored Chen's words at all.
Chen was so angry that the murderous intent in his eyes almost overflowed.
Good! Very good! When she gets out, these lowly jailers will be dead.
Chen has now been so overwhelmed by anger and hatred that she has lost all her rationality. She feels that everyone she sees is making fun of her, and even the jailer dares to give her the cold shoulder.
After the two jailers left, the jailer on the same shift lay down and asked lazily, "What happened to that woman? Could it be that there are rats again?"
Hearing this, the two jailers spat, their faces looked extremely foul, and cursed, "What bad luck!"
Seeing this, the jailer had something to understand. He let out a sigh and closed his eyes to meet Zhou Gong again.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and the two secret guards who were secretly guarding Chen looked at each other, and then one of them quickly chased in the direction of the wind, leaving one secret guard to guard the place.
The atmosphere in the cell suddenly became heavy. The quiet night would only magnify the fear for someone like Chen, who was in prison for the first time. Chen couldn't sleep at all, or rather, she didn't dare to fall asleep, for fear that all kinds of insects, rats and ants would crawl on her if she fell asleep.
As for her personal safety, she was not worried at all, because the emperor would not let anything happen to her. After all, she was the one who held their lives in her hands and had what they wanted, so they naturally would not let her die. It was just that this cell was so ugly and dirty that she could hardly bear it any longer.
The prince will be back soon, she just needs to hold on a little longer. When he comes back, she will be saved. Chen leaned against the damp wall and prayed that Prince Rui would come and rescue her soon.
