You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?

“Anyway, I still want to thank the three big brothers.

If you hadn't let me out of that sack, I would never have had a full meal until I died, let alone drink so freely."

In order not to arouse the suspicion of the three people, Du Qingwan pretended to cry and complained, looking really pitiful.

"Alas! Isn't it the same for us? If we don't follow orders, our wives, children and elders will all be killed by that vicious woman, the Queen Mother!"

"Girl, I know you are a good person, and we brothers won't make things difficult for you.

Anyway, you don't have much time left, so you should eat and drink, and make it worthwhile for us brothers to get to know you."

"Alas! These days, good people don't live long!"

To Du Qingwan's surprise, the three men inexplicably became close friends with her.

She couldn't help but feel secretly delighted, and an evil thought quickly flashed across her clear eyes.

"Brother, since the four of us are so destined to be together, why don't we..."

When Du Qingwan got to this point, she suddenly became timid and didn't dare to continue.

She was worried that the three of them would see through her little thoughts.

If that were the case, her life would be in danger.

"Girl, just speak up. If anything happens, we brothers will take care of it for you!"

The man in the lead was probably drunk and spoke without restraint, but he seemed very sincere.

Upon hearing this, the other two quickly nodded in agreement, very much agreeing with their boss's decision.

Seeing this, Du Qingwan couldn't help but smile with joy.

"Thank you, brothers, for taking pity on me. Qingwan would like to express her gratitude here.

What I mean is this, since the four of us are so destined to be together, why don't we become sworn brothers?"

I don't know where Du Qingwan got the confidence from, but she actually wanted to form a sworn brotherhood with three people in Peach Garden for the first time.

The three of them were drunk and immediately agreed happily.

Soon, under Du Qingwan's step-by-step hints, the three of them drank the wine that she had secretly poisoned while they were not paying attention.

As expected, within three minutes of drinking the poisoned wine, the two men staggered and passed out.

But the leader still had some consciousness and was in high spirits.

He naturally thought that the two were just drunk.

In order to prevent people outside the door from getting suspicious, Du Qingwan carried the leading man while he still had some consciousness and staggered towards the door.

Some shadows who were in charge of guarding saw that their boss was chatting happily with Du Qingwan. After asking a few simple questions, they did not dare to stop the two from leaving.

Du Qingwan carried the leading man to a small forest, and when no one was paying attention, she threw the man to the ground.

"Go to hell! You guys are so capable, and you still want to take me down? Don't you see what I've put you through?"

She clapped her hands lightly, straightened her clothes, and subconsciously raised the corners of her lips into a smug smile.

"Three days of drunkenness! Without three days, you will never be sober.

By then, you would have been buried alive by your own people! Humph! You deserve it! You bullied me!"

Du Qingwan kicked the man hard several times while speaking, then raised her eyes and glanced around, and when she saw that there was no one there, she left as if escaping.

The guards realized that Du Qingwan and the leader had been away for a long time, and they couldn't help but become suspicious.

"Hey, you said that the boss and his men have been out for so long, and it's not over yet? Is the boss really that powerful?"

One of them reached out and patted the people around him, then smiled obscenely in the direction where Du Qingwan and the other person were walking.

After a long time, he thought that the two were going to solve a physiological problem.

The other person couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard this:

"Hush! Alcohol makes cowards brave. They may be deeply involved in it now. Ahem..."

After saying this, the two of them looked at each other and smiled at each other at the same time, their faces full of vulgarity, which was simply disgusting.

"I always feel like something is wrong. Isn't it because the boss has syphilis and has been impotent? How could this be?"

After a moment, one person suddenly realized something and immediately became extremely alert.

My head was buzzing and my nerves were involuntarily tense.

"Oh no! Something might have happened to the boss! Quick!"

The person next to him also felt that the situation was not good and reacted immediately.

Without any hesitation, the two of them quickly called a few brothers and ran non-stop in the direction where Du Qingwan and the other had left.

Unfortunately, when everyone arrived there, they only found the leader lying in the grass like a dead pig.

But Du Qingwan had long disappeared.

"Damn it! She must have escaped! Find her quickly!"

One person reacted very quickly and immediately called on everyone to go search for Du Qingwan.

Although all of Empress Dowager Qiao's shadows are highly skilled in martial arts, it is not as easy as imagined to find Du Qingwan in the suburbs not far from Xian'an City.

After all, the place where Du Qingwan was tied up was only five miles away from Xian'an City.

It only took Du Qingwan one hour to successfully escape back to the official post station in Xianning City.

……

In the room, Zhao'er carefully poured tea for Du Qingwan, his face full of heartache.

It's only been a few days since I last saw Du Qingwan, and Zhao'er has become as thin as a skeleton, with a pointed chin and a round face that has become a melon-shaped face.

"Miss, where have you been these days? We had such a hard time looking for you that the Emperor almost chopped off our heads.

Are you not hurt? Did those thieves do anything to you? They..."

Zhao'er gently put down the teapot, carefully handed the teacup to Du Qingwan, and asked with concern.

Seeing this, Du Qingwan almost couldn't help laughing, and instantly felt like crying but had no tears.

"Hey! Zhao'er, don't worry, it's just a small matter.

Look at me, I'm fine, right? Don't worry!"

Du Qingwan took the teacup, slowly brought it to her lips and took a sip.

It had been a long time since she had drunk such delicious tea. She suddenly felt a little reluctant to part with it and looked very satisfied.

"That's great. Miss, should we set off for Loulan tomorrow?"

"I heard that Loulan has been forcing the Emperor and the Queen Mother to ask for someone.

If we still can’t reach Loulan in these three days, Loulan will raise an army to attack Daye. Their goal is the Thirteen Prefectures of Youyun.”

Zhao'er really had no idea what Du Qingwan was thinking, so she could only tell Du Qingwan all the news she had heard in recent days.

In Zhao'er's opinion, the most crucial thing to resolve the current dispute between the two countries and avoid more innocent civilians from being hurt is to complete this marriage as soon as possible.

She had also carefully inquired with Huang Sanjin and found that if they set out from Xian'an City tomorrow, they would be able to reach the border of Loulan in exactly two days.

"Let's go! The reason I chose to come back here is because I plan to go to Loulan to marry a princess."

“In recent days, I have been thinking about it, and I think Queen Mother Qiao will not let me reach Loulan alive.

Then why don't I do the opposite? I just don't want to do what she wants. I want to go to Loulan alive and marry her!"

Not long after Zhao'er finished speaking, Du Qingwan smiled wickedly and spoke in a calm manner.

"Ah? Is this... possible?"

Zhao'er had a dumbfounded look on his face, his eyes were wide with shock, and he looked bewildered and at a loss as to what to do.

She really couldn't guess what Du Qingwan was up to, but she felt that Du Qingwan was a little different from before.

"What? Just listen to me. Give the order and we will set off tomorrow and go to Loulan as fast as we can."

Du Qingwan patted Zhao'er's arm gently, looked at her with a smile and said.

Zhao'er hesitated for three seconds, then immediately nodded in agreement and quickly ran to explain the situation to Huang Sanjin.
