The atmosphere in the imperial city was like solidified air, full of intrigues and shadows. The towering walls of the princess's mansion emitted a pale light under the sunlight. Chu Qing held Liu Qing's reply letter tightly in her hand. The indifference and calculation between the lines reflected into her eyes through the paper.

Chu Qing's mouth curled up into a malicious smile: "Shen Liuyi, you are really capable to make my weak and kind sister-in-law say such words. As long as you dare to step into the imperial city, I will make you die without a burial place!"

"Humph!"

Chu Qing snorted heavily, crumpled the paper in her hand into a ball and threw it in the corner, then walked down the couch humming a little tune in a good mood. The maid who had been kneeling silently in the corner picked up the paper ball silently, put it on the candlelight, and the flame licked it up. When the paper ball was completely reduced to ashes, she returned to her position quietly like a silent shadow and knelt down again.

Chu Qing stood up and walked to the mirror. The maids who had been waiting for a long time immediately came over and gently put on gorgeous clothes for her. The intricate embroidery sparkled in the candlelight.

Chu Qing suddenly asked, "How are those men being dealt with?"

The maid who was putting the jade ornament on her was slightly startled, and the jade ornament in her hand trembled slightly in her fear, but she quickly regained her composure and whispered: "I have arranged it according to the princess's instructions. Seven are dead now, and the rest are unconscious."

Chu Qing opened her eyes and said in an unhappy tone: "Seven people died? Is this so unacceptable?"

The maid didn't dare to speak. To be honest, she felt that only seven deaths were too few. Chu Qing had been torturing those people for as long as he had been back. He locked them up with the estrus war horses, and there were constant wailing and screaming in the stables day and night. No one who had heard it would not have nightmares.

But Chu Qing still felt unsatisfied: "Keep an eye on the remaining people, don't let them die so easily, if one of them dies I will chop off one of your fingers."

"......Yes."

Because Shen Liuyi went deep underground and destroyed the core location, the originally safest place became a turtle in a jar, while those who were on the periphery because of their low status took advantage of the chaos and escaped.

Then they were captured by the guards who came to rescue Chu Qing. Their original intention was to force them to tell the whereabouts of Chu Qing and force them to lead the way. They planned to kill them once they found them. However, Chu Qing did not kill them. Instead, he brought them back and tortured them slowly.

As for the other women who were imprisoned nearby, Chu Qing originally ordered to kill them. At that time, Chu Qing thought that all the people in the depths of Paradise were dead, so she wanted to kill these captured women together, and let all those who knew about her shameful experience die.

However, a mysterious man appeared and took them away. Chu Qing looked ferocious and wanted the guards to kill him, but he didn't expect that those guys not only did not do anything, but also politely called the man "senior" and ignored Chu Qing's rage and let him take the man away.

He didn't even look at Chu Qing, as if he was disdainful of her. The guards around him were unwilling to take action. Only Chu Qing lost his composure and elegance and stood there in a rage.

If he had not been interested in anyone except those women, Chu Qing might not have been able to bring these people back.

Chu Qing said at that time: "I am Her Royal Highness the Princess! I order you to put them down, you arrogant fellow!"

Then, the guard who had been hesitating and not daring to touch her actually covered her mouth for the first time and even knocked her unconscious. At the last moment of her coma, she saw her guard flattering and begging the man.

Thinking of this, Chu Qing felt extremely humiliated. She was really like a tiger in troubled waters being bullied by a dog. Be it Shen Liuyi or that mysterious man, neither of them took her seriously.

The underground auction house was truly her greatest shame.

What surprised her even more was that this was actually related to the Liu family, which made Chu Qing feel extremely disgusted!

......

Because the head of the Liu family took all the blame and the Qingzhao ancient clan was willing to protect him, Liu Qing was eventually released.

However, she cried so hard when Liu's father was executed, and because it was so tragic, it aroused the sympathy of many people.

The law enforcement elder seemed to be trying to provoke her, especially when he learned that Gu Xiang was still captured in that place. If Shen Liuyi had not rescued him in time, the law enforcement elder would never forgive himself in his life.

He dragged his sick body to carry out the execution in person, and although he could barely walk, he wielded the whip with great force and with a strong sense of revenge. The tip of the whip made a sharp whistling sound as it cut through the air, and hit Liu's father heavily, causing him to let out a shrill scream.

In particular, the law enforcement elder said to the disciples watching below while beating them: "As a human, colluding with an evil spirit master is disloyalty. As a husband, using your wife and children is unkindness. For a bastard, committing a huge mistake without distinguishing right from wrong is unwise!"

Many disciples could not bear to watch the bloody scene, and they turned their heads away. Some even retched.

Law Enforcement Elder: "Why are you all looking away? Look carefully! This is the end of being a beast. If your partner does such a beastly thing in the future, I wonder if you want to beat him up!"

As soon as these words were spoken, both the male and female disciples froze in expression, and their thoughts drifted away with the words of the law enforcement elder. As soon as they thought that their wife/husband not only had someone else in her heart, but also brought a stranger's daughter to raise for them, they shuddered immediately, and the little sympathy they had left for Liu Qing instantly disappeared.

Liu Qing was crying breathlessly, and no one knew whether she was angry with the law enforcement elder or crying for her cheap father. Li Mingxuan and Zhao Mu held her in their arms for comfort, and someone even covered her ears with his hands for fear of scaring her.

As a result, whether intentionally or unintentionally, when the law enforcement elder swung the whip again, the blood and flesh on the whip splashed on Liu Qing's face. Liu Qing was stunned on the spot, and even his crying was stuck in his throat, and finally his eyes rolled up, revealing the whites of his eyes, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

When I woke up, I was on the way to the imperial city. I was afraid that Liu Qing would be moved by the scene when she stayed in Qingzhao Ancient Sect, so she kept crying all the way.

Chu Qing personally went out of the city gate to pick her up. Liu Qing is now completely different from before. Jun Qingyi gives her all the good things he has, so the flying spiritual device she rides on is even more gorgeous and comfortable than the one that princess Chu Qing rides on.

only......

Looking at Li Mingxuan and Zhao Mu holding Liu Qing in their arms, one on each side, and occasionally raising their hands to gently wipe the tears from Liu Qing's face, Chu Qing frowned tightly, "Sister Liu Qing."

Liu Qing's eyes were red at this moment, and her eyes were swollen like cherries. The tears that had just stopped came out again when she saw Chu Qing. Now she just stared at Chu Qing and couldn't say a word. It was Li Mingxuan who spoke first. Looking at this mortal who called Liu Qing "sister", he patiently explained: "Qingqing's adoptive father just..."

Li Mingxuan pursed his lips.

Chu Qing didn't understand. Not only did she not understand, she was also very dissatisfied. She knew everything about Liu's father's affairs. This accomplice should be cut into pieces. What's the point of crying?

She did not vent her anger on Liu Qing because of these things. Chu Qing felt that she was already very magnanimous. It was just that she had just been slapped in the face by Qi Yu, Shen Liuyi, Cang Wu, and those people from the underground auction house. She was now very sensitive to the issue of others disrespecting her.

She was a princess, and she came out in person to greet Liu Qing, which was a great honor. Many people stopped to see who was so important that this unruly and cruel princess came out in person to greet him.

As a result, these three guys didn't even lift their butts when they saw her, which was too much.

What Chu Qing didn't know was that she felt that she was giving face, and Li Mingxuan also felt that he was giving her face. If Chu Qing hadn't called him Sister Liu Qing, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to a mortal.

Unlike her brother, the short-lived prince, Chu Qing is an upright mortal. As long as she cannot practice cultivation, even Princess Li Mingxuan will not look upon her with respect.

Zhao Mu ignored her from beginning to end and focused on comforting Liu Qing. He never wanted to leave Qing Qing again and would never let her out of his sight to prevent her from encountering any danger again.

Chu Qing's anger was rising: "Sister-in-law, what is your relationship with these two wild men?"

Li Mingxuan/Zhao Mu: "Sister-in-law?"

In the past, if Chu Qing jokingly called Liu Qing "sister-in-law", Chu Yi would be the first to come out with a red face to stop her. But now Chu Yi is gone, Chu Qing only knows that her future sister-in-law had an affair with another man immediately after her brother's death.

It's still unclear when it's in front of her!

This can't be tolerated.
