Chapter 173 Silver Needle
In the darkness, a soft voice came from nowhere.

"The princess is awake."

Song Qing'an squinted his eyes, unable to keep his eyes open because of the sudden approaching light.

Holding a candle lamp, Wei Ping leaned closer to Song Qing'an a few inches away, and smiled jokingly: "If the princess just sleeps for a long time, she won't suffer."

Song Qing'an kept silent and waited for him to finish.

But Wei Ping didn't say anything more, he held up the lamp and looked at it for a while, then got up and walked away.

Walking with him, the faint light slightly illuminates the surroundings.Song Qing'an forced himself to calm down and looked at him secretly.

After a while, she seemed to understand where it was.

She has been here.

"Admiral Wei brought me to the Department of Prisons, aren't you afraid of being found by Pei's palm print?"

Song Qing'an said in a hoarse voice, she was indeed puzzled.Wei Ping wanted to kill her, so why did he choose such an easy place to find her?

Wei Ping put down the lamp and turned his back to Song Qing'an, wondering what he was doing: "So the princess knows this place..."

"Princess, don't worry, I'm not afraid that the Lord will find him. If he doesn't come, I'm still worried."

He chuckled, accompanied by a grinding sound, like sharp knives rubbing against each other, slowly, frustrated in his heart one after another.

"Just right, I got some new things a few days ago. Please trouble the princess to try it for me before the lord comes."

Wei Ping turned around and raised his hand, flicking his fingers lightly in the air, the rope binding Song Qingan's hands suddenly snapped.

I don't know how long he was tied up, but Song Qingan couldn't move immediately after his wrist was loosened, his arms seemed to be frozen.

Wei Ping nodded in satisfaction: "The princess is more obedient, and she will suffer less."

Of course he meant that Song Qingan did not try to escape.

Song Qing'an couldn't be more clear about how she could escape from the prison department by herself.

Judging by Wei Ping's posture, it is obvious that he is the head of the prison department.

Even if he couldn't see clearly, Song Qing'an could probably guess what Wei Ping was holding.

In the prison department, the most indispensable thing is all kinds of instruments of torture.

Xu thought of this, Song Qing'an always felt a faint smell of blood filling his nose.

Wei Ping deliberately walked extremely slowly, with neither soft nor heavy footsteps, "ta", "da", stepping on his heart little by little, which could easily cause panic.

Song Qing'an rubbed his sore wrist, knowing what to do.

"Admiral Wei, what if Pei's palm print doesn't come?"

The sound of footsteps stopped, and Wei Ping said leisurely: "No."

"I have never seen the Lord pay so much attention to anyone."

"How can Admiral Wei tell whether Pei's palm print is real or fake?"

Song Qing'an pretended to be relaxed and said: "Admiral Wei most wants to let Pei's palm print see my miserable state, right? But if...Pei's palm print won't come at all?"

Wei Ping chuckled: "Impossible."

"The Lord will definitely come."

While speaking, Wei Ping had already walked in front of Song Qingan, and slowly knelt down.

"If the princess wants to delay the time, I advise the princess not to waste time, and save some energy for yourself."

As Wei Ping said, he took Song Qing'an's hand and looked at it carefully, and said in admiration, "Princess's hands are really nice, if..."

He held Song Qingan's wrists with one hand, and took out a silver needle that was half the length of her palm with the other, and smiled profusely: "If it is stained with blood, I think it will be more lovable."

Jiang Zhiyuan asked someone to bring Zhuyan back to her palace, and wanted to ask her after she woke up.But it didn't take long before Song Qinghuai sent someone to send word that Zhu Yan had been picked up by him.

Zhu Yan was taken to his residence by Song Qinghuai, and the imperial doctor was also called, and Lin Yuan took care of her.

Fortunately, Pei Qing came in time to stop her injury, and Zhu Yan soon woke up.

"how do you feel?"

Song Qinghuai and Lin Yuan stood by the couch together, seeing Zhuyan wake up, Song Qinghuai asked softly.

Zhu Yan opened her eyes, as if she hadn't recovered yet.After a while, she opened her mouth and let out a series of gasping sounds.

Lin Yuan quickly handed her water to feed her.

"Your Highness... Hurry up and save the princess."

Zhu Yan made a hoarse voice, struggling to sit up, but Lin Yuan pushed her down again.

"Where is the princess?"

"Princess... the princess was taken away by Wei Ping."

After Zhuyan finished saying this sentence, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and she couldn't stop panting.Lin Yuan couldn't hide his worry on his face. He had investigated her condition and found that her internal injuries were serious, and she would have to recuperate for a long time, and it was uncertain whether she would be able to recover as before.

"Wei Ping?"

Song Qinghuai couldn't help repeating, thinking of Pei Qing's previous sentence "The subordinates are dishonest".

"It's really him? Can you see clearly?"

Zhu Yan couldn't speak, but nodded with difficulty.

"Then do you know... where did he take the princess?"

Zhu Yan paused for a while, then shook his head vigorously.

"... Linyuan, you can stay here. I'll go find her."

"Your Highness, I heard that Wei Ping's methods are cruel and his martial arts are comparable to Pei Qing's. If Your Highness goes alone..."

"Zhuyan has to be taken care of. You know, the maids here can't take care of her."

Song Qinghuai patted Linyuan's shoulder: "Besides, there is still Guanshan."

"...Yes, Your Highness."

Lin Yuan stopped arguing, and went back to the couch silently to stare at Zhu Yan.

The door of the room was gently closed, Zhu Yan suddenly turned her head, looking straight at Lin Yuan.

"……What's wrong?"

"Brother." Zhu Yan pondered for a long time, and said word by word, "Do me a favor."

"What's the matter?"

Seeing that Zhu Yan was so solemn, Lin Yuan's face became more tense.

"Go to the inner hall of Mingguang Palace... and look for it. There is an imperial edict. Bring it out and announce it to the world."

Lin Yuan listened carefully, and suddenly felt his wrist tighten.

Zhuyan grabbed his wrist with such force that even Lin Yuan felt a little pain.

"Must... must be as soon as possible, this... this is the best way to save the princess..."

"Don't worry, brother will definitely get it done...I swear."

Lin Yuan said solemnly, Zhu Yan let go of her hand as if relieved.She was completely exhausted and closed her eyes wearily.

Lin Yuan took a deep look at Zhu Yan, turned around and left, his figure disappeared in the night.

"Why is Admiral Wei so sure that... Pei's palm print will be found here?"

"The Lord must want it."

He still maintained a morbid smile, and the needle tip that shone coldly had already touched the gap under Song Qingan's armor.

Song Qing'an felt her heart beating wildly in her chest, and her whole body screamed for her to run away.But at this time, she was stiff all over, as if she had been nailed to the ground, unable to move at all.

That life-threatening feeling has never been stronger.

At that moment, Song Qing'an thought of Pei Qing uncontrollably, and even hoped that he would come in the next moment.

While laughing at her naivety and absurdity, she couldn't control the expectation in her heart.

Fear, panic, anticipation and self-deprecation... All kinds of emotions made her heart into a mess, and even her thoughts became a mess.Song Qing'an could only stare at the needle, watching it approaching him with his own eyes.

"Admiral Wei!"

Song Qing'an suddenly raised his voice and called out, twisting his hand, the needle tip deviated a few inches.
