Chapter 257: Good Intentions Concealment
Qian Qianqian opened her eyes with some difficulty, and couldn't stand such a strong beam of light for a while, so she couldn't help but squint her eyes, and it took a moment to get used to it before she could open her eyes completely.
What caught her eye was not a simple and dirty cell, but a clean and elegant room, looking at the furnishings in this room, Qian Qianqian inexplicably felt familiar, and always felt that she should have lived here before.
"Miss Qian, you can be regarded as awake."
A maid stood by the bed, staring at Qian Qianqian, and when she saw that she was awake, she was overjoyed and ran out to call someone.
Xiao Mohan walked in from outside, still wearing a dark robe, with long eyebrows and sideburns, thin lips and deep eyes, strong facial features, tight chin, and a hint of chill under his eyes.
"How? How does it feel? Xiao Mohan sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Qian Qianqian's face, his sword eyebrows were furrowed, and his face was anxious.
Qian Qianqian struggled to sit up, the bruises on her head had been bandaged, and the scars on her wrists and ankles had been medicated, but her body was still very weak, and her face was as pale as paper.
"Mu Tianyue and Xue Yi, how are they? Did you get rescued? ”
Qian Qianqian tugged on Xiao Mohan's sleeve, not caring about herself, but caring about others first.
"Don't worry, they're all fine, they're safe, but you, drugged, want to rest."
Xiao Mohan only felt that the woman in front of him was too stupid, and she was still worried about others at this time, so it was better to save her energy and worry about herself.
"And where is this?"
Qian Qianqian raised her head and looked around, some fragmentary memories appeared in her mind, but they couldn't be pieced together.
"Zhao Ziwei's mansion, this place is now under my control, so it is very safe."
Xiao Mohan lifted his thin lips lightly and spoke lightly, there was no superfluous expression on his face, and there was indescribable majesty in his every move.
"What did you do to Zhao Ziwei?" Qian Qianqian tightened her eyebrows, a little puzzled in her heart, and couldn't help asking.
"He fornicated with the enemy country, his crime is unforgivable, and he has been imprisoned in heaven, and when I return to Beijing to worship the saint, I will deal with it."
Xiao Mohan's expression was extremely calm, there was no wave in his eyes, as if all this was expected by him, and Zhao Ziwei had betrayed him secretly as he thought.
"You can't have arranged this, right? You already knew that Zhao Ziwei had a problem, and you deliberately let us come here, right? ”
Qian Qianqian looked at Xiao Mohan's expression, and felt more and more that something was wrong in her heart, Xiao Mohan has always been extremely smart, and Zhao Ziwei is not his opponent at all.
"I do know that Zhao Ziwei is not that simple, but there has been no evidence, Zhao Ziwei is the prefect of Wu'an, if there is no sufficient evidence, I can't move him at all, so I took this opportunity to let him show his feet, and in the end, it was as I expected."
Xiao Mohan didn't hide it, there are some things, he just did it, there was no need to pretend, and he didn't want to pretend at all, he had the confidence to let the people he fancy understand him.
"So you use me, use Mu Tianyue, and use Xue Yi, we are all your pawns, in order to achieve your own goals, you did not hesitate to keep us all in the dark and in danger, Xiao Mohan, sure enough, this is you, nothing has changed."
Qian Qianqian couldn't help but get excited, although she didn't have much strength on her body, she spoke extremely firmly, her face was full of grief and indignation, her hands were clenched into fists, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Xue Yi and Mu Tianyue both know about this matter, the reason why they didn't tell you is because they are afraid that you will not be able to hold your breath and show your feet, so that Zhao Ziwei will find out, and I have arranged everything, you will be fine, and you will be safe in the end."
Xiao Mohan stared at Qian Qianqian's face, his voice was low, his sword eyebrows were slightly raised, his eyes were burning, and his eyebrows were heroic, revealing indescribable oppression.
Qian Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled bitterly, it turned out that she was the only one in the dark about this matter, it turned out that Xue Yi and Mu Tianyue were so good in front of her, it turned out that she herself was the fool who didn't know anything.
"Okay, very good, you know everything, just hide it from me, it turns out that I am your burden."
Qian Qianqian pushed Xiao Mohan away, slowly turned her face sideways, avoided Xiao Mohan's gaze, her eyes gradually moistened, and she was so upset that she couldn't shed a single tear.
"Qianqian, I didn't mean that, I just wanted you to be safer, if it happened again, I think I would still hide it from you."
Xiao Mohan is also a stubborn person, he has always recognized what is what it is, leading troops to fight like this, and coaxing girls is the same, which makes Qian Qianqian cry and laugh.
In Qian Qianqian's opinion, if a man like Xiao Mohan is placed in modern times, he is a typical straight man of steel, obviously he is kind, but he can't say a good word, and in the end he makes people angry.
"General Xiao, do you just not believe me like that? Am I a mindless person in your eyes who can't hide anything? ”
Qian Qianqian knew that Xiao Mohan was changing the law to protect her and would not hurt her, but she still couldn't help but ask sharply, although she was a woman, she also wanted to save face, and she couldn't be looked down upon in vain.
"That's not it, it's just that I don't want you to get involved in officialdom, there are some things you don't know, it's much better than knowing."
Xiao Mohan seems to have something unspeakable, originally he arranged it well, Zhao Ziwei transported Qian Qianqian out, and he intercepted it halfway, where did he know that Qian Qianqian was restless, not a fuel-efficient lamp, and banging his head like this, it was unexpected for him and made him feel distressed.
"What else are you hiding from me? If you don't make it clear today, I won't bother with you anymore. ”
Qian Qianqian puffed out her cheeks, pursed her lips, her eyes widened, although her face was not as ruddy as before, but she looked so annoyed and really cute.
"That's a lot of things, I'm afraid I can't say it clearly for a while, you can rest first, and when your injuries are healed, I'll tell you slowly, and promise that whatever you ask, I'll answer anything."
Xiao Mohan lightly hooked his thin lips, his eyes narrowed slightly, there was a smile in his eyes, his expression was a little subtle, he raised his hand and touched Qian Qianqian's head, and his every move was very gentle.
Qian Qianqian looked up at Xiao Mohan, somehow, she always felt that Xiao Mohan's action was like touching a dog, but she had no strength in her body, and she couldn't dodge, so she could only let Xiao Mohan touch her.
"When are you ready to come back? Why don't you reply to me? ”
Qian Qianqian curled up, clasped her hands on her knees, her face was annoyed, and she stared at Xiao Mohan in a daze, her little face was big and her palm was big, she looked so serious, she really looked like a wild cat staring at her prey.
"After dealing with the affairs of the frontier, I set off first, I received the letter you wrote, but I thought that replying to the letter was too much, so I simply did not reply."
Xiao Mohan pursed his thin lips lightly, speaking lightly, his deep eyes were full of indescribable pampering, and his eyes seemed to overflow with tenderness.
Qian Qianqian glanced at Xiao Mohan and stopped responding, but her stomach screamed twice at an inopportune time, and the room was already silent, so the sound became more and more harsh.
Qian Qianqian lowered her head, her old face flushed, she bit her lower lip tightly, and clenched her fists with both hands.
"I ordered the kitchen to prepare food for you, all of which you like to eat on a daily basis, so let them come in."
Xiao Mohan remained silent, and also saw Qian Qianqian's embarrassment, stood up after speaking, and walked straight out, and after a while, several maids walked in from outside.
The smell of rice wafted in, Qian Qianqian couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and kept holding her stomach, she was indeed hungry, she had been locked up by Zhao Ziwei for so long, she hadn't eaten much, and now she was relaxed, and her stomach was empty.
"Miss Qian, these are all specially ordered by the general, and there are a lot of medicinal materials to nourish your body and qi, which is the best for your injuries."
The maid put the food on the table, leaned over and helped Qian Qianqian out of bed, these meals are mainly soup, the most nourishing stomach, Xiao Mohan thought about it very thoughtfully.
Qian Qianqian scooped up a spoonful of soup and put it in her mouth, it was really soft and glutinous and sweet, it was her favorite taste, it seemed that Xiao Mohan remembered it all.
After eating, Qian Qianqian was a little relieved, she had never been a person who would enjoy Qingfu, so she had to figure out the whole thing and see where Mu Tianyue and Xue Yi were.
"Miss Qian, General Xiao has ordered, you are weak and must rest, if you want to go out, let us stop you, and please don't embarrass the slaves."
As soon as Qian Qianqian walked to the door, before she opened the door, she was stopped by two maids, it seemed that Xiao Mohan gave them a death order, and they would not dare to disobey no matter what.
"General Xiao is taking me as a prisoner, my own body knows it myself, why should he make the decision for me?"
Qian Qianqian was angry in her heart, but she also knew that these two maids were innocent, so she was just angry and did not embarrass these two maids.
Xiao Mohan has not appeared in the past two days, as if she has a lot of things to do outside, and Qian Qianqian is locked in the house, although she has a maid to take care of her on weekdays, and she has no worries about food and clothing, but she can't hear any news, and Mu Tianyue and Xue Yi haven't come to see her.
It wasn't until the third day that Xiao Mohan finally appeared, and the injuries on Qian Qianqian's body had healed a little, forming a thick scab, although it looked a little ugly, but it didn't hurt much.
"You're finally able to get me out, and I'm suffocating to death if I stay in this house all day."
Qian Qianqian stretched her waist, the green silk was a little loose on her shoulders, and her face was a little ruddy, although she was still not salty or indifferent to Xiao Mohan, but she was not as repulsive and vigilant as before.
"Everything has been packed, you change your clothes first, and after an hour, we will leave for Lianzhou."
Xiao Mohan obviously didn't come to see her, but came to inform her of the matter in person, and when she heard that she was leaving, she was immediately puzzled.
"Have you taken care of all the affairs of Wu'an City?" Qian Qianqian was still a little surprised, since Zhao Ziwei betrayed Xiao Mohan, then Wu'an City must be a mess, there are a lot of things to deal with here, only these two people, the time is inevitably too short.
"The price of food in Wu'an has slowly come down, and I have instructed other officials in Wu'an, they will take care of the aftermath, so there is no need to worry."
