Chapter 68: Drugged

After sobbing a few times, Qi Miaomiao took out a dagger and handed it to the queen, and called a maidservant to say that she had witnessed everything yesterday.

The queen looked at the dagger and asked the maidservant: "Let me ask you, did Liu Qi scratch the county lord's face with this dagger yesterday."

But the servant girl also began to weep.

"Yes, after I saw it yesterday, Lord Liu threatened me and threatened me that if I said it, he would kill me, and I was afraid...... Woowoo"

The queen waved her sleeves and called some of the guards in.

"Go and get Liu Qi in prison!"

When Liu Qi, who was in prison, was thinking about how to escape, the queen came to her with a group of people.

When Zhong Qin saw the queen coming, he immediately took off his robe and saluted.

"The queen mother is blessed with Jin'an."

The queen ignored Zhong Qin and threw the dagger in front of Zhong Qin and asked, "Is this your dagger?"

Zhong Qin picked it up and looked at it, it was his own dagger, and looked at this dagger with a puzzled expression.

The queen snorted coldly.

"The face is so ugly, it looks like it's yours."

Zhong Qin was even more puzzled, why her personal dagger was in the queen's hands, she didn't know at all.

"Let me ask you again, where did you go in a hurry yesterday when you were drinking with Princess Erya and Wang Yu?"

"I'm going to ......"

Zhong Qin just wanted to say it but stopped, lowered his head and said nothing.

"I'm going to see Yu Wenyou." Zhong Qin paused and hesitated for a moment. If he said this, he would definitely affect Yu Wenyou, since he had helped himself so many times, why should he cause others to be in danger.

When the queen saw that Liu Qi did not speak, she thought that she had confessed her guilt, and said sharply: "Three days later, Liu Qi will be executed!"

With that, he walked away.

Zhong Qin was slightly stunned after hearing this, and after being stunned for a while, he got up and looked at the dagger with a solemn face.

The next day, the news of Liu Chi's arrest and imprisonment spread throughout the city.

"Did you hear that? Lord Liu, that Liu Chi, is in prison. ”

"What!? Why? ”

"I heard that it was right and wrong, and the county lord of Nanwang Qi Miao also scratched the county lord's face."

"Tut-tut, it's really golden, and it's ruined."

"Hey, I also heard that Liu Qi also wants to kill the county lord......"

“……”

All kinds of gossip spread in the city for a while, and soon Wen Huai learned about it.

"What!? How could Childe do such a thing, someone must have framed him! ”

Wen Huai felt incredible, how could Zhong Qin do this.

"But, but the notice has already been posted, saying that it will be ...... in three days."

At this point, the maid stopped, not daring to continue.

"Three days from now?"

Wen Huai pressed the maid to continue.

"Three days later, Lord Liu will be executed......"

"What?!"

Wen Huai didn't stand firmly, his body fell down, but fortunately his hands were supported on the table, holding his head with one hand and the table with the other.

"Alright, you go down."

Wen Huai sat down the table on the stool again, still unable to believe that everything that happened was true.

Tears were already wet in my eyes.

"Childe ......"

On the other side, Qi Yan also got the news here.

"Your Highness, don't you come to the rescue?"

Qi Yan, who was playing with the birds, chuckled twice.

"No need, I want to see what this willow chime is capable of, and if he escapes again, let's just wait and see what happens."

When Qi Yuxiao learned about this, he immediately got up and wanted to rescue Zhong Qin, but was stopped by King Pingnan.

"Liu Qi was arrested by the queen's mother, we shouldn't do anything about it."

Although Qi Yuxiao looked reluctant, he still obeyed the words of King Pingnan and did not go to rescue Zhong Qin.

After Qi Wushuang heard this, she wanted to ask Qi Miaomiao if she knew about Zhong Qin, but suddenly heard some sounds at the door of Qi Miaomiao's room, so she stopped at the door, thinking that the guest just wanted to turn around and leave but heard some words that she couldn't believe.

"This will Liu Qi will definitely die! Haha, it's true that I wear a veil every day, but in fact, there is no injury on my face at all. ”

Qi Miao's sour voice sounded hateful.

What the? Qi Miaomiao's face was not injured, it must be Lord Liu who she framed.

"Yes, yes, the county lord is really good at acting, the queen can be deceived, it's really amazing."

A familiar voice came out.

The voice...... It's Xiao Nian! Why is she here, does it have something to do with her?

"You're a good plan, but I'm curious why you still let people add gut-breaking grass to Liu Qi's meal? He's already a dying man, so why bother with such a thing? ”

Xiao Nian smiled and said: "County Lord, you don't know the ruthlessness of this willow thief, it's best to let him stay unmoved for three days, otherwise what if you let him escape one day."

The embarrassed conversation between the two people in the room made Qi Wushuang hear it completely.

She walked back to the room tremblingly, she couldn't believe it was true, but in order to save Zhong Qin, she immediately found Wen Huai and told her everything, and before leaving, Wen Huai made a big gift to thank Qi Wushuang.

At this time, in a dark place in the prison, there were two people sneaking around with some food.

"Hurry up, put it all in, hurry up."

One spoke, the other impatient.

"I know, I know, it's not good."

One of them came to the door of Zhong Qin's cell with the food, kicked the door, and put the food inside.

"Hey, hey, it's time to eat, don't play dead for me, get up quickly."

Zhong Qin was woken up by the noise, so he picked up the food and ate it, and after just two bites, he felt that something was wrong and stopped.

No, it's just pickled steamed buns this morning, why are there big fish and meat at night.

Zhong Qin saw that the other people around him were still eating pickled steamed buns, and immediately put down the rice, and hurriedly let himself vomit the meal he had just eaten.

"Vomiting ......"

When the person who delivered the food saw it, he began to panic, rushed into the cell, grabbed Zhong Qin's hair and grabbed the food with his hands, and fed it to Zhong Qin's mouth.

The person who delivered the meal wrapped Zhong Qin's hands, feet and mouth with strips of cloth, so that Zhong Qin couldn't spit it out, and left after smiling.

Soon after, Zhong Qin's stomach ached so violently that Zhong Qin couldn't think, and she curled up in a corner of the cell, unable to move like a cow or sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

At this time, someone opened the cell door, and Zhong Qin felt that he was being picked up by someone in a daze.

"Childe...... Childe ......"

Zhong Qin finally had some consciousness, and she tried to see the person in front of her clearly.

Wen ...... Wen Huai, why are you here? Am I dead...... I can see you. ”

Wen Huai couldn't cry anymore.

"Childe, don't say it yet, hurry, this is the antidote, eat it quickly. I bought off the jailer to come to see you, you must hold on, I will definitely get you out. ”
