After Zhao Jing finished speaking, she let go of the hand that was pinching the maid's chin, stood up and wiped her fingers with a handkerchief, as if her fingers were stained with dirt, and sneered, "A slave for a day, a slave for the rest of my life, even if I'm not Princess, I can still handle you."

The poisonous intent in Zhao Jing's eyes made the maid panic. She didn't care to cover her red and swollen cheeks, and knelt down in front of Zhao Jing, "I know I'm wrong, miss, please forgive me."

"Is Jing'er awake?" With the sound of footsteps, Qin's gentle voice sounded outside the door, Zhao Jing's face immediately changed, she pulled out the pearl hairpin from her head and threw it on the ground, the blue hair fell, and the eyes in her eyes Welling up tears will not fall.

The door was pushed open.

"Jing'er, are you awake?" Qin stepped forward in surprise, and then saw the maid kneeling on the ground, and the face of Zhuchai on the ground changed slightly, "What's the matter? Is the maid not serving you well?"

Zhao Jing turned her back to her, her body trembled slightly, as if she was enduring a great humiliation, "Thank you, Princess, for taking me in. Since Zhao Jing is not a member of the palace, she will not disturb the palace any more."

"Jing'er!" Qin was very sad, her expression was shaken, she looked at the maid kneeling on the ground, and instantly figured out the outline of the matter in her mind, a coldness flashed in her eyes.

That's right, Jing'er will not say such a random word, someone must have said gossip, this child has always been arrogant, and now she knows her own life experience, she can't accept it, and it is no wonder that she is angry after hearing a few gossips Some of them don't even call mother concubine anymore.

Thinking of this, Qin Shi walked behind Zhao Jing with a distressed face, raised her hand and gently held her arm and turned her body around.

"Jing'er, turn around and look at Concubine Mu."

After Zhao Jing resisted for a while, she turned around with her strength.

A bright face was full of tears, Zhao Jing sobbed a bit, Qin's heart ached terribly, "What's the matter, who made Jing'er wronged?"

Zhao Jing didn't speak, but shed tears silently. Qin Shi looked at the nanny Wang Shi beside her, who immediately sullenly looked at another maid, and reprimanded, "What happened, tell the truth."

The maid who was kneeling on the ground looked at the standing maid as if begging for help, and the maid also knelt down, turning her head slightly as if she didn't see her gaze, and imitated exactly what she said .

"That's how it happened. Please forgive me, my maidservant tried to persuade Cuizhu, but she didn't listen to my maidservant's dissuasion." The maid washed herself clean, causing Cuizhu to look at her with hatred.

"How courageous." The nanny Wang said angrily, "Even if the girl is not the princess, she is still the daughter of the princess as if she were her own. How can you, a lowly servant, criticize me?"

Qin's face was extremely cold, she embraced Zhao Jing, "Silly child, my concubine said that no matter whether you were born by me or not, you are my precious daughter."

Zhao Jing softened her body this time, and she threw herself into Qin Shi's arms, her voice full of grievances, "Mother, I was so angry that I slapped her, she dared to fight back and slapped the hairpin on my head. They're all knocked out."

Mrs. Qin patted her on the back, "Don't cry, it just made Concubine Mother feel bad, Concubine Mother knows that Jing'er has been wronged."

"Princess, what should we do with these two people?" The nanny Wang pointed to the two maids on the ground, and Qin glanced coldly, "Since there are so many mouths, let someone pull out their tongues and cut off their hands. sold."

"Princess!" The maid's eyes widened, and she shouted in disbelief, "I didn't say anything about it, Cui Zhu said it, Wangfei knows it."

Cuizhu hated her so much, she wanted to speak up to defend herself, but the maids who came in to pull people covered her mouth.

"Mother Concubine." Zhao Jing suddenly said, she glanced at the two maids, and said, as if she couldn't bear it, "Actually, these two people are at fault, but it is not enough to impose severe punishment on them."

Mrs. Qin was puzzled, but Mrs. Wang, the nanny, said, "The girl is still kind-hearted, the princess is trying to vent her anger on the girl."

Zhao Jing lowered her eyes, "The prince doesn't like me at all, I heard that the princess is gentle and kind, I..."

She stopped her voice, but Qin Shi immediately understood, and said: "Mother Concubine knows that you want to please your father."

She looked at the two maids, and saw that they were expecting, and said coldly: "Since Jing'er wants to let you go, then don't pull out your tongue and cut your hands, and drag you to the front to beat the [-] big boards again, so that the prince's mansion will give you a hard time." Everyone went to have a look and criticized the fate of the master."

The rest of the maids quickly dragged the two maids down. Zhao Jing's goal was achieved, and a gleam of pleasure flashed in her eyes. Isn't Qi Yuyao gentle and kind, and when she comes back and sees the two being executed, she wants to see Qi Yuyao Dare to save.

Zhao Jing's plan was very good. If Qi Yuyao was saved, Qin would definitely be angry. If she didn't, then Prince Chen could see clearly her so-called gentleness and kindness.

However, things were not as expected, the rewards from the emperor and the queen mother were sent to the palace, and at the same time, there was a news that Qi Yuyao was deeply loved by the queen mother, and she stayed in the palace for a while.

After Zhao Jing heard the news, she immediately broke two vases. She had only lived in the palace for two or three nights since she was a child.

"Why is she!"

When Qi Heng left the court, he wanted to go to Shoukang Palace to pick up Qi Yuyao, but he ran into someone sent by the Queen Mother on the way.

Because the queen mother learned that he was going to the border.

"The empress dowager is actually worried about the lord..." the maid who came to convey the message lowered her head and said tremblingly.

"The king knows what the queen mother wants." Qi Heng said indifferently, how angry the queen mother was, she even said that she would not see him, and she never told him to give up going to the border. It can be seen that the queen mother also has something in mind.

She knew that if he, the Prince Chen who held the Tiger Talisman, did not go to the border, then he would have to hand over the Tiger Talisman, and once he lost the Prince Chen he relied on, the Queen Mother did not want to gamble on the so-called kinship.

So she could only be angry, while looking for excuses to leave Qi Yuyao in the palace to take care of him, so as to save him from worries.

Naturally, Qi Heng was worried about Qi Yuyao's safety in the palace. Emperor Jin Yuan would not do anything to her, and it was much better to have the Queen Mother take care of her than to return to the palace.

Seeing Qi Heng's gloomy face, Chen Wang Hunpo thought he was angry, and helped him to speak: "Don't think too much, the queen mother must be worried that you will leave the palace, and Yuyao will be bullied by the Qin family."

The maid resigned, and Qi Heng saw the person walking away, so he glanced lightly at the soul of King Min Chen, "Who doesn't understand even the things you can see."

"You wait for me." Chen Wang was stunned for a moment, he always felt that this was a bit strange, and then seeing that Qi Heng had gone far, he hurried to catch up.

When Qi Heng returned to the palace, Zheng Er had already guarded the door.

"My lord."

The maid squatted in front of Qi Heng, straightening his clothes that were a little rumpled after getting off the carriage, Qi Heng nodded indifferently, motioning for Zheng Er to come forward and speak.

"My lord's previous order has been fulfilled." Zheng Er said in a low voice, "I'm already in the dungeon. Do you want to see me, my lord?"

"Let's go now." Qi Heng nodded again, and Zheng Yi beside him gestured to the accompanying maids and servants, signaling them not to follow.

Dungeon

Zhao Yan'er struggled to get up from the cold and wet ground. The back of her neck was sore and sore, as if someone had hit her with a stick.

"Hiss, where am I..." Sitting up from the ground, Zhao Yan'er rubbed the back of her neck. She remembered that she seemed to be eating, and then suddenly lost consciousness.

In connection with the soreness at the back of her neck, Zhao Yan'er's eyes widened. Could it be that she was knocked out?

Her eyes accidentally fell on the iron gate of the fence, and the speculation in her heart became more and more serious, "Could it be that I was kidnapped?"

Zhao Yan'er panicked. She ran to the iron gate of the fence and found that it was locked. She pulled it hard a few times, and the iron gate clanged, but no one appeared even with such a loud noise.

"Is there anyone!" Zhao Yan'er shouted loudly, kicking the iron gate a few times, "Is there anyone? Come out!"

However, no matter how much she shouted, no one came out, and Zhao Yan'er's voice became hoarse.

"Yes...no...is...someone..." She shook the iron door feebly a few times, without any expectations in her heart. She was locked here for a whole day, and no one showed up or sent her off. It seems that the kidnappers are planning to starve her to death here.

Unexpectedly, this time, two black-faced men in armor appeared in front of her, and said in an unhappy voice, "Be quiet."

Zhao Yan'er was agitated, she threw herself on the iron gate, "Let me out, who are you and why did you arrest me?"

"What's the trouble, tell her to be quiet, and the master will come over later." A man dressed up appeared out of nowhere, his eyes were as cold as an eagle's, Zhao Yan'er met his eyes, and was so frightened that she stopped her voice.

Those eyes didn't look like people, but like a cold-blooded poisonous snake staring at its prey.

The two men appeared for a while, and then left in a hurry. Zhao Yan'er was tired from shouting earlier, and she was tired from eating, so she didn't bother to bother anymore.

She leaned against the iron gate, the light here was dim, and after an unknown amount of time, there were finally a lot of footsteps outside.

"Master, the person is inside." A faint yellow lantern appeared not far away, and Zhao Yan'er immediately got up, threw herself on the iron gate and tried to look out.

Following the sound of heavy footsteps, a black prince's python robe appeared in Zhao Yan'er's field of vision. She looked up in disbelief, and the icy and ruthless face of Prince Chen came into her eyelids.

"how come……"

"Open the door."

"Yes." Zheng Yi took out the key and stepped forward. He met Zhao Yan'er's unbelievable eyes, and silently lowered his head to open the lock.

"My lord wants to ask you something, just answer it well." He whispered, but Zhao Yan'er pursed her lips and ignored him.

The door was opened, and Zhao Yan'er rushed out of the cell immediately.

"Presumptuous." Zheng Er, who was guarding Qi Heng's side, immediately pulled out the sword in his hand, and the lantern reflected the cold silver light of the sword.

Zhao Yan'er looked at the sharp sword point close at hand, her face turned pale with fright, Qi Heng waved Zheng Er back, his eyes as deep and cold as a cold pool locked Zhao Yan'er, "I have a question for Miss Zhao to answer .”

"What does the original work mean?"

Zhao Yan'er's blood turned cold, as if she was in a world of ice and snow.
