The sickness of quick transmigration makes it difficult for her to fly

After hearing what Liao Kui said, He Lianqing's expression changed suddenly, and his brows also furrowed.

He murmured in his heart: Are you so bold?She is so bold that she even dared to run away from the marriage agreement agreed upon by the two countries. Isn't she afraid of an irreversible situation if the matter is revealed?

But right now it has indeed been revealed, He Lianqing thought, if she dared to escape under Liao Kui's nose, she was able to save her life because of her status as a concubine princess, but Liao Kui would never call him because of this matter on the road afterwards. She had a better time, presumably because she had suffered a lot.

Now that Liao Kui told him about this, he just wanted him, the future husband of the princess, to take good care of the princess so that no one would run away again.

Chasing someone is not so easy.

He Lianqing's eyes flashed, and without saying anything, he directly asked Liao Kui to release him, and Liao Kui didn't need to take care of the rest.

Someone helped him finish the rest, Liao Kui didn't need to beat the four maids anymore, he was relieved, and his brows and eyes immediately relaxed a lot.

When he found the firewood room, Liao Kui opened the door himself, and the outside skylight penetrated into the firewood room through the wide open door, illuminating the four maids who were huddled in the corner, bound and gagged.

Fear was written on their faces. Although Liao Kui had no intention of killing them these days, their lives were not easy along the way.

The daily meals were not as simple as what they used to eat in the Xuanguo Palace. Sometimes they would be interrupted by Beiyou soldiers when they were halfway through eating, and they would be tied up and dragged into the carriage again.

Often at that time, there was still food in the mouth that had not been chewed, but because the mouth was blocked by a rag, I could only swallow it forcibly.

After a long time, they have learned to be clever, and every time they get food, they try to gobble up as much as possible, otherwise, once they are brought into the carriage and tied up, they will never have food and water provided until the next station.

After being treated like this, the four maids lost a lot of weight in the second half month, and their faces were also emaciated.

He Lianqing approached the firewood room and saw the four maids huddled together, three of them were leaning towards the one on the far right, as if that maid was the backbone and pillar among them, and it seemed that being next to her would make them less afraid of.

He Lianqing has been astute since he was a child, and he is used to detecting the smallest details of people and things, and then extracting cocoons from them to learn some useful or useless information.

For example, at this moment, he noticed that the maid on the far right had a different look of fear from the three next to her. Compared with them, the expression on this maid's face was very superficial.

Although she had disguised herself well enough, she couldn't hide it from He Lianqing, a person who was very good at observing words and capturing details.

He Lianqing's gaze that kept staring at her made Biyu nervous, and she always felt that the man in front of her seemed to see some thoughts in her heart through her eyes.

Biyu tried her best to keep calm, not to let herself be at a disadvantage in this confrontation of eyes.

The fact that she is not at a disadvantage does not mean that she wants to overwhelm the other party in her eyes, but that she does not want the other party to catch something in her.

So at this moment, the fear in his eyes became more real.

He Lianqing staggered his eyes and turned his head to give Liao Kui a look. Liao Kui exited the firewood room with a knowing look, leaving He Lianqing alone to deal with the four maids.

As soon as Liao Kui left, He Lianqing paced up and down in the woodshed, taking every step very slowly.

His footsteps seemed to be on the heartstrings of the four maids, and they couldn't relax their vigilance at all.

Look at this person's attire and demeanor, and even the Beiyou envoys are respectful to him.

Biyu guessed that this person was by no means an ordinary official from Beiyou, but more like... a noble person with a distinguished status.

He Lianqing walked back and forth two or three steps and stopped, his eyes fell on the four of them again.

"The four girls suffered a lot of grievances along the way. It's because I, Beiyou, didn't take good care of them. Please forgive me."

As soon as He Lianqing opened his mouth, he apologized to them first, and his attitude was very good, but the four of them couldn't afford the apology from the person in front of them.

Because they know why they ended up in this situation.

The princess of a country, who was chosen as a marriage partner, was supposed to obey the emperor's order and go to Beiyou to marry the second prince.

But she escaped halfway, and found a woman who could pretend to be a real woman to replace her identity, trying to escape the golden cicada's shell and get rid of the fate of marriage.

Originally, it would have been fine if this matter hadn't been revealed, but once it was revealed and spread, the peace talks between the two countries would be like childish jokes, and it would arouse Beiyou's anger, and Xuanguo might never have peace.

When the Beiyou envoy found out about this, he was furious, and immediately tied up their four maids. The other woman who pretended to be a princess disappeared later, and they all knew in their hearts that there was probably no good end.

The woman died, and they were also in danger. They managed to save their lives, and they still lived in fear every day.

Although they didn't know about the princess's escape, if they got to the bottom of it, they might not be without responsibility.

People from Beiyou can say: "As the maidservant of the princess, but you failed to fulfill your duty of taking care of the princess, you should be punished!"

He would also say: "You and the princess are both members of Xuanguo. At that time, the place where the princess went was the wilderness. The soldiers in the team couldn't see the situation on the princess's side. How do you know that you and the princess are not in the same spirit?"

Now that the matter has come to this point, they are always a little suspicious. It is already very good to save a life, and they dare not have the slightest resentment.

He Lianqing's voice changed, and he was no longer as gentle and polite as before. He said with a bit of coercion: "You are the princess's servants. In addition to taking good care of the princess, you also need to restrain the princess's thoughts that she shouldn't have."

"Princess is going to do something wrong or say something wrong, you have to remind me from the side, don't close your eyes and let her go."

"And—" He Lianqing said clearly, "If you maids dare to lead the princess to do things that shouldn't be done..."

He Lianqing deliberately dragged out the ending sound to control their thoughts.

"Screen, kill, don't, discuss!"

When the last four words were thrown out, He Lianqing suddenly had a murderous look on his face.

He glanced at the maids who were huddled in the corner one by one, and beat them, telling them not to move their minds.

As long as these people don't make mistakes, even if Princess Ning Le wants to run, she won't have the strength to run.

After a short beating, the three maids except for Biyu were all sweating through their heavy clothes in this cool and almost late autumn season, trembling with fear.

From now on, they have to be more cautious in their actions and words, otherwise, if they make a mistake, the head on their neck may be lost.

Biyu was not as exaggerated as they were, but she was also in a state of agitation.

When the hemp rope that was tied up all over her body was loosened, Biyu let out a long breath, and looked at the small gray sky above her head with a complicated expression. (end of this chapter)
