Chapter 289 Distress in the Palace
Chapter 289 Distress in the Palace
Qingyun woke up and saw that he was locked in an unfamiliar room, with his mouth gagged and his hands and feet tied.
It was pitch black in the room, Qingyun looked out, and it was already dark.
Qingyun wanted to know where this was.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the door, and Qingyun immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be in a coma.
The door opened. Messy footsteps came in.
"Princess, she hasn't woken up yet." A man's voice.
"Well, take her away." Hua Yan's voice.
"Princess, she was brought by Mr. Zuo. Mr. Zuo has been looking for her. Is it appropriate for us to kill her?"
"Damn! When is it your turn to teach this princess to do things! Hurry up!" Hua Yan scolded the man.
The man hurriedly stuffed Qingyun into a bag, carried it and walked out.
They walked very fast, and after a while, when they heard them stop, as if there were guards in front, Qingyun immediately kicked his feet hard, whimpering in his mouth.
"Who?" A question really came from the front.
"It's nothing, it's me!" Hua Yan's voice.
"Oh, the princess. It's so late, the princess pays attention to safety." The voice of the guard in front.
Qingyun was carried by someone and trotted like a fly.
After a while, she was put down and the bag was even tighter. Before she could stand still, she heard a "dong" sound, she was thrown into the water, and the cold water immediately drowned her, she held her breath, the bag kept falling, Qingyun struggled a few times, and found that the bag was on the Tie two large stones.
Qingyun felt despair in his heart, and heard the buzzing tinnitus in his ears. Are you going to be buried here today?
Hua Yan and they have already left. Qingyun was still struggling, the rope tightened tightly around her wrist, the tighter it got.
A black shadow swam over quickly, someone quickly took out the sheet from her mouth, cut the ropes on her hands and feet, and the already confused Qingyun suddenly woke up.
She was dragged ashore. The man covered his face and looked at her with bright eyes: "Are you all right?"
"Zuo Lang?"
"Shh! Don't talk, can you still go?"
Qingyun nodded.
Zuo Lang took off his coat and put it on her, led her to turn left and right, and finally climbed the wall and left the palace.
With a whistle, the black Yue Ying ran out. The two of them rode on a horse and quickly disappeared.
Instead of taking her back to the inn, he stayed in an inn. Open a room.
Zuo Lang instructed the store to prepare hot water, new clothes, and soak Qingyun in the hot water.
At this time, Qingyun finally came to life.
After bathing and changing into new clothes, Qingyun opened the inner door and saw Zuo Lang sitting at the outer table, making a pot of hot tea, a few dishes, and a pot of wine.
"Let's eat. Let's talk when we're full." Zuo Lang said.
Qingyun was indeed very hungry. She raised her neck and drank a large cup of hot tea. The dishes on the table were almost all vegetarian. She ate a few mouthfuls.
Although he was hungry, his stomach was full, as if he was full of gas.
"How did you find out that I was missing?" Qingyun asked.
Zuo Lang said: "I found out that you were missing after the competition was over. I searched everywhere and couldn't find you. Later, I found someone sneaking into the house, and I followed. That sneaky person led me to this place. I disappeared on the way, I found this house and saw a lot of guards standing at the door, and then the princess came, I followed her and found you."
"Who is Ling Si?" Zuo Lang asked.
Qingyun didn't answer, and looked up at him: "Are you standing in line with Fengjia?"
Zuo Lang said: "My horse passes through the hands of Lord Shangguan every year, and Lord Shangguan is the one who stands in the queue."
Qingyun nodded: "So you are also the Feng family. The Feng family wants to marry the princess for Chaoyun Continent, right?"
Zuo Lang said: "Yes. Why did the princess kill you?"
Qingyun said: "I also want to know, I want to see her."
Qingyun knew why Huayan wanted to kill her, but she didn't want to tell Zuo Lang.
Zuo Lang sighed: "I'm a businessman, and I don't want to get involved in these disputes. You came with me to the palace, you saved my life, I don't care what you are here for, I don't want you to die. Ling Si is a barbarian. Chief, when did he save you?"
Qingyun looked at him: "I don't want to answer your question."
Zuo Lang smiled: "Is Ling Si related to the former emperor of Daxing?"
Qing Yun didn't answer, but instead asked him: "Last night Ling...Ling Si and Fengcheng competed, what was the result?"
Zuo Lang said: "Fengcheng lost, Ling Si and the princess are engaged to be married on the 18th of next month."
The chopsticks in Qingyun's hand fell to the ground: "So fast!"
"Well, I guess it's because I'm afraid of long night dreams. Fengcheng will never give up, but Ling Si is very powerful, this month is time, and there will be blood and rain. In the past, except for Fengcheng, as long as you want to marry the princess, there is no Good end."
Qingyun: "Do you know where Ling Si lives?"
Zuo Lang: "Yes, but you have to tell me who he is."
Qingyun: "He is a very important person, and he may know the whereabouts of my son."
Zuo Lang looked at her suspiciously, and finally gave her the address.
Qingyun said: "I saved your life, and you saved my life today, and we don't owe anyone any more, you don't need to worry about me anymore. I don't want to hurt you. But my maid, I still need to Please take care of it for a few days, I will go to her after I finish my work."
Zuo Lang said angrily: "Everyone knows that I brought you into the palace, how can you get rid of it?"
Qingyun ignored him, "It's almost dawn, I'm tired, let's talk about it tomorrow." She ate a few random bites and turned to bed.
Zuo Lang fell asleep on the table outside.
When he woke up, Qingyun had disappeared.
Zuo Lang asked the store outside if they could see Qingyun, but no one saw it.
Qingyun came to the address Zuo Lang gave her, No. 68 Chaoyun Street. Chaoyun Street should be the center of the busy city, with hotels and restaurants, shops and martial arts halls everywhere.
Qingyun found No. 68. It was a very large hall, with two stone lions squatting at the door, a scarlet door, and two golden characters hanging above the door: Bei Zhai.
Qingyun walked up the steps step by step, and there were guards standing on the left and right of the door.
"Stop, who are you looking for?" the guard asked her sharply.
Qing Yun said: "Ling Si, I am looking for Ling Si."
The guard looked at Qingyun up and down: "No one wants to see our fourth master! Hurry up, hurry up, if you don't go, you won't be able to leave if you are caught!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened with a creak, and a tall, black-robed man walked out from inside. He wore a high crown of hair, elegant and handsome, and was holding a beautiful woman in his arm. The woman walked very slowly, as if injured.
The man is Ling Chen, and the woman is Hua Yan.
Ling Chen followed Han Zhitao and Zhang Yang.
When the two saw Qingyun, they were all stunned.
"Ah Chen." Qingyun stood there and looked at him fascinatedly.
"Who are you? Do you know me?" Ling Chen looked at her with sharp and alert eyes.
Qingyun's heart shrank: "I'm Qingyun, I'm Lanling, you, why are you?..."
Ling Chen's eyes looked at Qingyun up and down, but there was no trace of warmth in his eyes.
"Achen, do you still hate me? You misunderstood me, Achen, that child, the child you saved belongs to us, not Huo Jingyun's, oh no, not Sima Hui's..."
Qingyun was incoherent.
Ling Chen's brows furrowed: "What did you say, what child?"
