The Unruly Princess: Regent, please hug me

Chapter 873
Shen Qiqi also quietly waited to enter the palace to meet her grandmother, as Chi Mubai said, all speculation at this time is meaningless, only when she sees her can it be true.

The capital of Qinglan Kingdom was still similar to the previous one, full of people coming and going, when Shen Qiqi saw the street food stalls, for some reason she lost any mood.Xiangxiang got into the carriage from time to time, and he didn't have any interest in talking to Chi Mubai.Chi Mubai, of course knew that it was Shen Qiqi, because of Mo Yan, he was in a low mood at this moment, and he probably didn't have any mood to think about delicious food anymore.

They soon arrived at the north gate of the palace, which is the closest to the Ewha Garden.Shen Qiqi took out the token, and the palace man quickly opened the door and let him in.According to the rules of etiquette, Shen Qiqi should go to visit the emperor first, but thinking about her grandmother, she ordered Qi Zhao's carriage to drive towards Jingyuan.

It's almost time to arrive at Jingyuan.Shen Qiqi was thinking about seeing grandma, full of anticipation, she didn't want to suddenly rush out of a palace lady from the side of the road, the rush was extremely fast, if it wasn't for Jin You's sharp eyes and quick hands, reining in the reins, the carriage would have knocked her down.

"Princess, princess, I'm Xiaoyuan, please, hurry up and save Mama!" This maid is Xiaoyuan from Jingyuan, and Shen Qiqi also recognizes him, and she often follows Qingyuan. Nanny should be Qingyuan.

"What's wrong with her?" Chi Mubai was more anxious than Shen Qiqi, he promised Xu Xingran that he would keep Qingyuan safe, Qingyuan was Xu Xingran's only relative, so nothing would happen.

More importantly, if something happened to Qingyuan and Xu Xingran got angry, those weapons would not be guaranteed to be released into the market. Once they were used to deal with Qinglan, this would be a very difficult problem to solve.

"The nanny was sent to Jielan in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. She was whipped and tortured day and night. If the prince and the princess don't come back, I don't know if she will survive. The princess finally waited for you to come back, please rush to save Qingyuan Mommy."

"What's Jielan's place?" Shen Qiqi heard the name sound nice, but seeing Chi Mubai's face became very ugly, compared to the nice name, this place is definitely not a good place.

"It is the place where the Ministry of Internal Affairs punishes the palace servants who have made mistakes. All the palace servants who have made serious mistakes will be sent here, and will be severely punished and tortured. Usually, they will never return." Jin You was on the side Explaining, Shen Qiqi's face also became extremely embarrassed, how could Qingyuan stay in this kind of place?
"Go to Jielan's place." Shen Qiqi and Chi Mubai said in unison, the two of them have the same heart at this moment, they must get Qingyuan out, so that she cannot lose her life.

Lu Jinyou, who Qi Zhao didn't know, did know Lu Jinyou, and at this moment Jinyou speeded up and drove the carriage towards Jielan.

Since it is located in the darkest northwest corner of the palace, Shen Qiqi didn't wait for Chi Mubai's signal, and when the carriage came to a stop, she jumped out of the carriage and walked straight to Jielan's place.The gates where Jielan lived were two dark gray painted gates, and there was no one guarding the gates, Shen Qiqi was not polite, and kicked the gates open.

Looking around, there is a front hall with brick cracks and long grass inside, and the surroundings are notorious. The dilapidated houses that look like a long time ago are not like a place for people to live.Before seeing anyone, she heard screams coming from the room on the left, and she heard Qing Yuan's voice.

"What is it called? You are Xu Shen's cousin, his accomplice. Hurry up and tell him what he has done. How much gold, silver and jewels he has with you. If you don't tell me, I will kill you." Your hand was broken, you haven’t eaten for three days, and your bones are still so hard, I don’t think you will give you any water, will you tell me?” A sharp voice came out from the crack in the door of the same room, and turned to In Shen Qiqi's ears, there was the sound of a loud whip, coupled with Qing Yuan's screams, Qing Yuan's screams were like rolling over sand, hoarse and unpleasant.

Shen Qiqi couldn't bear it anymore and walked towards that room, kicked the door open likewise, before seeing anyone else, she saw Qingyuan in the middle of the room, both hands were tied with a rope, and the other end of the rope was hung high in the room At different heights, the toes only reach the ground, just like a ballet dancer, but her movements are far less elegant than ballet dancers, and she is hung in the middle of the room like a big character.Qing Yuan's head was drooping, her hair was disheveled, the original color of the clothes on her body could no longer be seen clearly, and it was in rags from being beaten by the whip.

And the other side hit Qing Yuan's shoulder just now, and there was another tear in the clothes there, exposing the skin that had been whipped inside, and the wound that hadn't scabbed yet, bloodstained again.

The people inside stopped, looked at Shen Qiqi and saw that he quickly threw down the whip in his hand, and knelt down to Shen Qiqi: "Princess, why are you here?"

Shen Qiqi gritted her teeth, grabbed the hem of her skirt, kicked that person's shoulder, and that person immediately fell backwards and fell to the ground.Seeing this, the people around didn't dare to step forward to help him up, Shen Qiqi didn't even look at the others, she went straight to Qingyuan and raised Qingyuan's face.

Qing Yuan's face has become black and dirty, his lips are dry and cracked, his cheeks are sunken, and his eyes are dull and lifeless.

"Auntie is me, I'm Chuqing, I'm back, I'm here to save you, wake up, wake up!" Shen Qiqi held Qing Yuan's face, trying to make Qing Yuan who had fallen into a coma after being beaten wake.But Qingyuan couldn't wake up from Shen Qiqi's call, Shen Qiqi put her hand on Qingyuan's nose, thankfully she still had breath.

"Put her down immediately." Chi Mubai also arrived later and saw this scene, his voice seemed to be frozen.And all the people present knelt down, but no one dared to move, they all looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to step forward.

"Your Highness, Princess, this is an order from the Emperor himself, saying that Qing Yuan is Xu Shen's cousin, a spy hidden in our palace, hurting the Empress Dowager, we need to know from her how much Xu Shen still buried in the palace. "The leading eunuch was the one who whipped Qingyuan with braids just now, and said in a low voice, he knew that neither Shen Qiqi nor Chi Mubai could be offended, but the emperor couldn't be offended, he could kill him at any time.

"Xiao Zuo, how can it be said that she is Xu Shen's Xiao Zuo? If so, is there any evidence?" Shen Qiqi rolled her eyes and the eunuch immediately lowered her head.

"You guys are really good at beating an unarmed woman like this. Did you dig something out of her mouth? Did she admit that she did it secretly?" Chi Mubai was also very angry. It's not that he hasn't interrogated people before, but Treating a woman like this is a heinous crime that cannot be forgiven.Moreover, he knew that Qing Yuan was extremely kind and kind to others, so how could it be a meticulous work?If she really worked carefully, the Empress Dowager would definitely not live today.
