Traveling through: I rely on space to raise the sick Wei Wang

Chapter 303 In the Coffin
"The Queen Mother has always been hostile to Princess Wei, Your Highness. You know that Princess Wei is missing now, and it must be the Queen Mother's order."

When Su Yichen came back, he heard that something had happened to Xu Ruqing at the banquet. Not only was she framed, but she also had a miscarriage. He was anxious and hurriedly left his soldiers behind and rushed to the palace. Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he learned that Xu Ruqing was missing.

"Qing'er..." Su Yichen was heartbroken, not only because of the hard-earned child, but also because he felt sorry for Xu Ruqing. He didn't expect that she would suffer such a great injustice after he disappeared for a while.

She is still weak now, where can she go?

"Xuan Ming, pass the order down, send 3,000 soldiers from the Su family into the palace to surround Fengxiang Palace." Her Qing'er must not be in any danger, and he will make those who hurt Xu Ruqing pay with their lives.

Concubine Guo was shocked. She didn't expect Su Yichen loved Xu Ruqing to this extent.

It looks like a fight is about to break out.

After Su Yichen left angrily, Steward Su said, "My lady, I remember that Princess Wei didn't tell you that at the time. Now that you are leading the Prince of Wei to cause trouble for the Queen Mother, if Princess Wei knew..."

"What can we do now that we know?" Concubine Guo narrowed her eyes. "Fight, we must fight! Didn't Xu Ruxian dare to bully the harem because she had the support of the Queen Mother? Now that the King of Wei is gone, the Queen Mother will be skinned alive. I want to see how long Xu Ruxian can continue to be so arrogant without the Queen Mother to rely on!"

"But as for Princess Wei..." Bai Yuesheng is not someone to be trifled with. If anything goes wrong, Concubine Shu will also be to blame.

"Don't worry, I have my own plans. Princess Wei has helped me a lot, and I will definitely not let anything happen to her."

……

It was already dark when Xu Ruqing woke up. Yes, she had been drugged.

She only remembered that she was walking well when she suddenly smelled a faint fragrance. When she realized that the fragrance was unusual, she felt dizzy and her legs went weak. Then when she opened her eyes, she arrived here.

“Huahua, huahua.”

It sounded like a plastic bag being blown by the wind, or like the sound of a knife rubbing against a stone.

She forced herself to stand up and slowly moved her weak feet against the wall. She brushed aside the door curtain of the next room and saw a row of exquisite human skin masks. They were hung on fishing lines with wooden clips and had long been dried by the wind. There seemed to be a smell of lingering blood in the air.

Among these faces, Xu Ruqing recognized many familiar faces, but she was not sure.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"

There was a movement behind the cabinet. Xu Ruqing opened the door of the cabinet and was shocked to find Qiu Ju, who disappeared at the banquet, inside.

"Qiuju, why are you here!" Xu Ruqing said as he pulled the rag out of her mouth and untied her.

"I don't know what happened, but I remember my neck suddenly felt sore when I passed the Moon Arch. When I woke up, I was tied up and locked up here."

Qiu Ju came out of the closet and looked up to see the human skin hanging above her head. She couldn't help but be startled: "Princess, look, isn't this... the face of the Crown Prince's wife and the Fairy Concubine of Zhennan?"

Xu Ruqing said that the face looked so familiar, and it turned out to be Ouyang Bihua and Xu Ruxian.

Qiu Ju was frightened and then comforted herself: "But you have to admit that these human skin masks are so lifelike. Even the beauty mole on Xianpin's face is so realistic, and the hair on her face..." Qiu Ju was about to tiptoe to touch it as she spoke.

"That's real human skin." Qiu Ju was shocked when she heard that and stopped her hand in time. "What? You said this is really the face of Xianpin?"

"Don't ask so many questions for now. Bai Yuesheng brought you here with the intention of using you to lure me in. However, he didn't expect that I would take the initiative to come to him. My situation has changed from active to passive. I can't take risks with your life. I have to find a way to rescue you first."

Qiuju didn't know what happened, but she understood that she seemed to have implicated the princess again.

Qiu Ju frowned and looked bitter: "Princess, have I gotten into trouble again?"

"No way. You and I couldn't have predicted that he would catch you." Xu Ruqing looked around. The room had no doors or windows, and the air was stagnant. It smelled damp and musty. Apart from the oil lamp in the middle, there was no light at all.

After knocking carefully on the ground and walls, I found that their materials were not cement and stones used for houses, but wood.

Qiu Ju also searched for a long time, but found nothing: "I have been searching for a long time but still can't find the exit. Princess, where do you think the exit could be hidden?"

"The exit is above." Xu Ruqing said after thinking for a moment, pointing to the ceiling above his head.

Qiu Ju squinted her eyes and looked again and again: "How can I not see...Princess, where are we?"

"In a huge coffin." No, to be precise, it's a coffin-shaped basement.

"What?!!!" Qiuju had never experienced such a thing before and was shocked again when she heard it.

"Have you ever seen a coffin? What does it look like?"

Qiu Ju answered nervously, "One end is big and the other end is small. It's made of wood and is used to hold dead people."

Xu Ruqing said, "I just came out of the room inside and noticed that the floor plan there was trapezoidal and narrow, estimated to be only 600 centimeters, so small that it could only fit a bed. But when I came here, it suddenly became clear. There was not only a wardrobe, but also other living furniture. It was estimated to be 1,400 centimeters. What do you think it is if it's not one end big and the other small?"

"And the mushrooms growing in the corners, most of their spores can only grow by attaching to wood trunks. This shows that the building material of this basement is not mud, sand, stone or soil, but wood."

"So, the exit can only be on the top, which is the coffin lid."

Qiu Ju not only had no clue after listening to Xu Ruqing's analysis, but became even more panicked: "Princess, how can we get out?"

"He lured me here, but didn't kill me. He must have had other purposes for doing so much." Xu Ruqing touched the water droplets that seeped in from the wall and analyzed calmly: "It's raining outside."

……

"This is outrageous. You just break into Fengxiang Palace as you please. Where do you put the laws of Dongyuan and me?"

Su Yichen's eyes were gloomy: "If you hand over Qing'er, everything will be fine. Otherwise, I don't mind getting my hands stained with blood."

"You said Xu Ruqing is missing?"

The Queen Mother then laughed out loud as if she had heard of great joy: "Hahahaha, that's really God's will! Su Yichen, you and I have been fighting openly and secretly for so many years. Do you think you can do whatever you want just because I have the upper hand over you? You are wrong. Even if I didn't fight you, your ending would be the same. You are born a loner, destined to be separated from your wife and children and live in loneliness. Now Xu Ruqing's death is your retribution!"
