Double Life: The Sickly Prince Eavesdrops on My Heart

Compared to the bustling imperial palace, Hu Qingyao's place was simply hell on earth!

A few days ago, she had just walked out of prison. Qin Yue generously lent her one hundred taels of silver and even found a carriage for her to take her on the long journey back to the Western Regions.

Hu Qingyao was deeply grateful for Qin Yue's kindness, and thought to himself that once he returned to the Western Regions, he would definitely thank Qin Yue for his help.

However, fate played a cruel joke on her at this time.

Not long after she ate the cakes handed to her by the driver, she felt weak all over and beads of cold sweat kept coming out of her forehead.

She was so angry that she asked the driver loudly, "Why did you drug me?"

The coachman's face instantly changed to a ferocious one, and he said with a wicked smile: "I am just following orders. You will be sold to that filthy place sooner or later anyway, so why not let me have you for now."

After saying this, the driver pounced on him like a hungry wolf.

Hu Qingyao's eyes widened with anger, as if fire was about to burst out of her eyes: "How dare you! I am a princess from the Western Regions, do you want to die?"

After hearing this, the driver was not afraid at all. Instead, he laughed wildly and said, "It's just right. I have never slept with a princess before!"

Although Hu Qingyao struggled hard, the effect of the muscle softening powder was so strong that she had no strength at all, and the driver finally succeeded.

The carriage shook violently for a long time before it stopped. At this time, Hu Qingyao's hair was disheveled, her clothes were torn, and she was shaking with anger.

"I am going to kill you!"

The driver pinched her chin without caring and said with a sinister smile: "The princess is indeed extraordinary! Hahaha!"

Hu Qingyao was so angry that he yelled with all his strength: "Qin Yue! I'm going to kill you!"

The driver ignored her anger and continued driving forward. After driving for about half a day, the carriage finally stopped.

The driver got off the car and left, probably to look for someone.

Hu Qingyao tried hard to get up, but his body ached and his strength had not recovered, so there was no way he could escape.

Her heart was filled with despair and anger, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Just at this moment, there was a noisy sound of footsteps in the distance. Hu Qingyao's heart instantly rose to his throat, wondering what he was about to face.

Soon, a group of ferocious people appeared in her sight. The leader, a big man with a face full of flesh, looked at Hu Qingyao with a greedy smile: "Is this the princess of the Western Regions? She is really a beauty. Now she can be sold for a good price."

Hu Qingyao glared at them, the hatred in her heart growing stronger and stronger. She secretly swore that if she had a chance to escape, she would make Qin Yue and these people pay a heavy price.

The big man waved his hand, and several of his men came forward and dragged Hu Qingyao off the carriage. Hu Qingyao was unable to resist and could only let them do whatever they wanted.

She was taken to a house and those big men, like hungry wolves, hurt her again!

Then, they had no mercy at all and cruelly sold her to a wealthy businessman as a concubine.

This wealthy businessman is truly a cruel and ruthless character.

His mansion was filled with many strong servants and ferocious thugs, which made people feel daunted.

Every day he would order people to feed Hu Qingyao the muscle softening powder on time.

The medicinal power of the muscle softening powder was extremely strong. After Hu Qingyao took it, he felt weak all over every day, as if all his strength had been drained.

She was drowsy and depressed, and could only allow the rich businessman to torture her at will, without any power to resist.

The hatred in Hu Qingyao's heart was like a surging wave, constantly rolling and rising, almost swallowing her whole.

She secretly swore in her heart that she would make those who had hurt her pay the heaviest price.

Later, when the rich businessman once again ordered his men to feed her the muscle softening powder, Hu Qingyao suddenly had an idea and secretly put the medicine in his mouth.

While no one around her was paying attention, she quickly and secretly spit out the medicine.

In this way, she continued cautiously for several days. Finally, after a long wait, Hu Qingyao's body gradually recovered its strength.

On this day, she seized the opportunity and took advantage of the rich businessman's unpreparedness to strike him with a palm.

The rich businessman was caught off guard and fell down immediately. Hu Qingyao did not hesitate at all, and quickly searched the rich businessman's body and found a sharp dagger.

She gripped the dagger tightly, with the flame of revenge flashing in her eyes, and stabbed it hard.

One, two, three times... until the rich businessman was no longer breathing, she fell to the ground trembling all over.

When the night was deep and the whole world seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Hu Qingyao carefully took the banknotes from the rich businessman, gently pushed open the door, and slipped out like a ghost.

On the second day, Hu Qingyao got up early at daybreak.

She went to buy two new sets of clothes, a strong horse, and carefully selected a long whip early in the morning.

It was just because her whip had fallen in the Third Prince's mansion before, and she didn't have a suitable weapon, so she always felt uneasy.

At this time, the detectives in the city were searching for her everywhere, presumably because the rich businessman's death had been discovered.

However, Hu Qingyao did not choose to escape in the chaos. She had only one firm belief in her heart, that is revenge.

After waiting for two hours, she finally found those big men. Her eyes were burning with flames of anger.

She swung a long whip and beat the big men.

Those big men wailed in pain under Hu Qingyao's whip.

Hu Qingyao was merciless and used the whip to strangle one of the men's neck until he died.

Then, she did the same thing, strangled all the big men to death, and then hung their bodies on the trees.

After doing all this, Hu Qingyao mounted his horse and resolutely left the city.

However, she did not set out on the journey back to the Western Regions directly, but returned to Kyoto without hesitation. She knew that the real enemy was still roaming around in Kyoto!

Hu Qingyao swung the whip in his hand vigorously and hit the horse's back hard. The horse felt pain and spread its four hooves, galloping towards Kyoto at lightning speed.

Along the way, all the humiliation and suffering she had suffered kept emerging in her mind.

From being drugged and raped by a coachman to being sold to a wealthy businessman as a concubine, she was force-fed muscle-softening powder every day and suffered ruthless torture by the wealthy businessman.

Those painful memories were like sharp thorns, piercing deep into her heart and making her hatred grow stronger.

Finally, after running for most of the day, she arrived outside Kyoto.

She led the horse into Kyoto and found an inn on the street opposite the Qin Mansion! She had a full meal and took a nap!
