After Princess Xuanxue came down from the mountain, the whole capital was in chaos.

Chapter 163 Ran away
At night, the Ministry of Punishment is in prison.

Xiao Zhen has been locked up here for seven or eight days. He has been thinking about how to escape, but the teleportation talisman and teleportation talisman on his body have been taken away. His muscles and veins are severed and he cannot move. He can only hope that someone will come to rescue him. .

After waiting for several days and no one came, he said to himself: "That's right, I'm already like this, who will go forward to seek bad luck? It's a pity that Kong Qing is dead, otherwise he will definitely come to save me ”

He will be on the road tomorrow and be exiled to the desolate land in the northwest. He holds on to his last glimmer of hope, hoping that someone will come to save him.

Just as he was drifting off to sleep, he felt someone speaking in his ear, a woman's voice.

"His Fifth Highness, who was so famous in the past, was in such a miserable state. He was really a bit pitiful."

There was no female jailer in the Penal Department Prison. Xiao Zhen opened his eyes suddenly and saw a woman wearing a blue robe squatting in front of him, looking down at him, her eyes full of sarcasm. And his appearance is average, not good-looking, not ugly, just average.

"Who are you!" He shrank back warily, but all the muscles and veins in his body were severed and he couldn't move at all.

"I am Kong Qing's junior sister, my name is Kong Ling." She held a pill in her hand, pinched his cheek roughly, and stuffed the pill directly into Xiao Zhen's mouth.

Xiao Zhen suspected that she was here to kill him and silence him, so he resisted with all his strength. However, he didn't know what method Kong Ling used. Xiao Zhen swallowed the medicine directly without even a chance to resist.

He asked angrily: "What did you give me to eat?"

"Don't look reluctant. The food I gave you was specially made by my master for you. It took a lot of my master's spiritual energy to repair your muscles and veins. You still have to live or die. With your virtue, you Do you think it’s necessary for me to harm you?”

Kong Ling looked disdainful, not treating Xiao Zhen as a noble person at all.

Xiao Zhen was very angry and felt insulted: "You are so presumptuous, how can you talk to me?"

Kong Ling patted him on the face like a humiliation: "You still think of yourself as a prince? You are already a prisoner. Don't demote yourself to a commoner. What's the point?"

The movement here alerted the jailer, there were footsteps coming this way, and someone asked: "Who is it?"

Kong Ling took out the teleportation talisman and escaped from prison with Xiao Zhen in front of the jailer.

The jailer rubbed his eyes and started shouting in shock: "There is a ghost, there is a ghost!"

Before Xiao Zhen could react, he was in a certain room in Wuji Palace. He felt much more comfortable after leaving the dirty and smelly dungeon.

"Thank you."

Kong Ling stood up with a very disgusted attitude: "Just rest. In another hour, your tendons will be almost repaired. I will come to see you then."

Xiao Zhen's depressed mood has improved a lot. At least he won't have to be carried into exile tomorrow. Now that he has swelled up since practicing "Ten Thousand Ghosts Chao Lin", he feels that he is invincible, but Yuan Qi With one move, he destroyed the evil spirit he had finally captured and left him half dead.

He had been catching those evil spirits for a long time. He thought they were very powerful and could help him get the throne.

What a joke. In other people's eyes, he is nothing.

He gritted his teeth and swore: "Yuan Qi, you have ruined my good deeds. You wait for this revenge. I will definitely seek revenge from you. Either you die or I live!"

He fell asleep in a daze, and when he woke up the next morning, he found that he could move.

...Early that morning, Yuan Qi followed Feng Caiyi to Feng's house. On the way, he saw the imperial guards all over the street holding a portrait and arresting people. However, he did not see Jiang Juncai. Instead, he met two of Jiang Juncai's men. I have been to Jiang's house several times, so Yuan Qi recognized him.

Yuan Qi asked the two of them, and one of them, a man in his thirties, replied: "Forget it, His Highness Five escaped from prison last night and was taken away. According to the jailer who witnessed it at the time, the person who rescued him was a female Taoist priest. The Fifth Highness suddenly disappeared from sight. The Emperor was furious and ordered me to arrest the Fifth Highness before dark. Miss Qi, can you help me figure out where the Fifth Highness is? "

Yuan Qi twitched his lips, not expecting that the other party would ask her for help: "Since it was a female Taoist priest who took him away, you might as well go to the Taoist temple to look for him."

The man chuckled: "What Miss Seventh said is that Commander Jiang has sent people to look for Taoist temples. However, there are hundreds of Taoist temples in Kyoto, large and small. Can Miss Seventh tell you which direction they are in?"

Yuan Qi didn't want to settle, so he just told the man: "His life should not be cut off because you can't find him. He has experts around him to help him. You might as well think about how to deal with the emperor."

The man looked helpless: "We and Commander Jiang are going to be beaten again..."

Yuan Qi was very surprised: "Didn't he escape from the Ministry of Justice? How come it was the commander of the Imperial Army who was beaten?"

"Miss Qi is right, the Minister of Punishment has been dismissed by the emperor. If we can't find someone, we will be beaten. Miss Qi, can you think of something?" The man knew that Yuan Qi had this ability.

Yuan Qi changed the subject with a faint smile: "By the way, have you memorized that woman's face?"

The man sighed and shook his head: "No, when the jailer thought about it afterwards, he couldn't remember the face of the female Taoist priest. It was really strange."

This is not unusual. Yuan Qi told him: "The other party probably used magic to make the other party forget his own characteristics."

After asking clearly, Yuan Qi left.

Feng Caiyi was very worried: "Seventh sister, His Highness the Fifth has escaped. Will he come to retaliate against you? You have to be careful."

When Jiang Juncai returned home, he told her about Yuan Qi's help in capturing Xiao Zhen.

Yuan Qi didn't care: "His two attacks are not a threat to me, sister-in-law, don't worry, ten of them are no match for me."

Feng Caiyi thought of Yuan Qi's abilities when she was in the northwest, and she smiled: "Yes, Seventh Sister's abilities are not what ordinary people have."

Not long after, the Feng family arrived.

Feng Caiyi took her to meet Feng Aotian and his wife.

Feng Aotian was injured a few days ago due to a battle in the Xuanzheng Hall and was still resting at home. He wore a brown brocade robe and had been waiting in the front hall with his wife.

Yuan Qi bowed his hands to the two of them and exchanged polite greetings.

Feng Aotian heard from her daughter and son-in-law that Yuan Qi led them to the underworld and had a close relationship with the Northern Ghost Emperor. She respected Yuan Qi very much. Although Yuan Qi was young, the other party felt that he was I don’t know how many years I have lived.

"Miss Seven, please sit down."

Yuan Qi was not an old woman who liked to chatter, and he had nothing to say to Feng Aotian and his wife, so he went straight to the point and said, "No, just show me around."

Feng Aotian: "Miss Qi is very happy, but my mansion is a bit big. Do you want to call a sedan to come over?"
