Qi Chengyi frowned, an impatient murderous look flashed in his eyes, and thrust a dagger straight into the throat of the man in black!
The man in black was so frightened that he jumped out of the way!
Qi Chengyi hugged Fu Yunqing and left the bed.
"You actually found Li Quan's place!" The man in black held a wild goose-wing knife in his hand, with fierceness in his eyes.
Fu Yunqing observed the man in black's attire and said, "This man is similar to those men in black who killed the Chu family."
"Are you sent by Chen Yushi to get Li Quan's secret letters about what happened back then and hide them in the secret room?" Qi Chengyi asked the man in black.
The man in black looked at the old letter hidden in Fuyunqing's sleeve, nodded and said: "That's right! Based on your martial arts skills, you are definitely no match for me. Hand over the letter obediently to avoid torture!"
Fu Yunqing saw that the opponent had strong internal strength and he was probably no match for him, so he immediately gathered all his energy and drew out the soft sword wrapped around his waist.
A sinister smile flashed across the corner of Qi Chengyi's mouth, as if he was watching a cricket shaking a big tree, or looking at a grasshopper, his eyes were contemptuous, and a green leaf flew out of his sleeve——
Slit the neck of the man in black.
Fortunately, the man in black retreated in time and did not hurt his throat. He only injured the surface of his neck. He immediately looked shocked and said in disbelief: "You..."
The next moment, there was still shock in the eyes of the man in black. Qi Chengyi had flashed over and inserted a knife into his heart!
Blood splashed onto the back of Qi Chengyi's hand, turning red.
"It's so dirty." He whispered in disgust.
Fu Yunqing's pupils dilated slightly with shock. She saw the evil and cold smile in Qi Chengyi's eyes, like a ruthless Shura and a cold-blooded King of Hell.
Qi Chengyi turned around, the coldness in his eyes dissipated, turned into warm spring light, and looked at Fu Yunqing softly: "Qingqing...?"
"Your Highness, Your Highness." Fu Yunqing came to her senses. At that moment, she felt that Qi Chengyi had killed many people.
"Did I scare you?" Qi Chengyi frowned, "I don't think you should be scared so easily."
"I'm... just surprised."
"What are you surprised about?"
"Has Your Highness killed many people?" Facing the absolutely powerful and terrifying strength, Fu Yunqing couldn't help but take a half step back. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, but she mustered up the courage to look directly at him.
Qi Chengyi will not hurt her.
"Are you... afraid of me?" Qi Chengyi was silent for a long time, looking at her who took half a step back, "Why are you afraid of me?"
"I..." Fu Yunqing thought of his terrifying martial arts, of his knife piercing a wolf's head, of killing people with green leaves, and of his evil smile and mist-like identity.
At that moment, she felt that Qi Chengyi was like an abyss, which she couldn't see through and didn't dare to approach.
And she was on the edge of the abyss, about to fall, but she grabbed the grass on the edge of the cliff.
Qi Chengyi softened his tone: "That day I sealed my throat in the Li Mansion and killed several servants. I won't do it again."
"No, I just think... you are more complicated than I thought." Fu Yunqing tried to lighten the atmosphere, put away the secret message in his sleeve, kicked the assassin's body, "I, let's leave."
Qi Chengyi stared at her back, his brows furrowed.
It was already late at night when he left the study. After Qi Chengyi ordered people to deal with the traces, he sent Fu Yunqing back to the wing before leaving Li Mansion.
Glass lamps were burning in the room.
Fu Yunqing sat cross-legged in the bed tent, recalling the past of Qi Chengyi protecting her and rescuing her.
The two have gone through so much and are clearly close friends of life and death, but Fu Yunqing feels that she is far from touching the real Qi Chengyi.
She didn't like this feeling.
I don’t know how long it took, but Fu Yunqing finally turned off the lights and fell asleep.
Not far away from the eaves of a tall building, Qi Chengyi held a small wine jar in his hand, sip after sip, and the sake dripped down his jawline. He stared at the side room where the lights suddenly went out, and raised his head to drink all the wine.
…
The next day, Zhenfusi.
Lying down and kneeling were Li Quan, Fuyun and Li Jingshu.
Qi Sui'an was sitting on the right side, her lips slightly pursed, her brows filled with deep thought. She was thinking about how to send Li Quan to prison today.
This is an uncertain trial.
Never before has an official been sued to the Zhenfu Department for beating his daughter.
Jiang Xingwei, who was wearing a Chu-colored round collar and peacock patchwork, walked into the Zhenfu Division with a serious smile.
As he entered, the expressions of the surrounding guards changed slightly, and they became more energetic.
Jiang Xingwei raised his sleeves slightly and saluted the eldest princess. Then he sat on the high platform and slapped the crowd: "I am here today to hear the case of Li Quan beating his wife and daughter."
Outside the Zhenfu Department, many men, women and children gathered around to watch.
There are women with bruises on their faces holding a child, there are also old women with crutches, men smoking pipes and puffing smoke, and salesmen carrying baskets...
"Oh, it's really strange! Are you trying a case of beating your wife and daughter?"
"Women have to rely on beatings. If they don't beat them, they won't obey!"
"Last time, the guy in my house didn't cook, so he beat me up with a fire poker. The brand is still there. He was extremely obedient, like a dog. He would wag his tail when he saw me, and he would kneel on the ground to change my shoes. , be more obedient and more obedient!" Beside the scarred man, stood a young woman with a mark on her neck. She timidly held her child in her arms, with tears in her eyes and some fear.
After hearing this, the women all looked at the scarred man with resentment, anger, or fear...
"Why do I, as a woman, deserve to be beaten?" A clear question sounded, like a volcanic stone thrown into a pool, causing a heat wave.
Fu Yunqing, wearing a daylily purple waist dress, walked over, and the crowd automatically made way for this woman with stunning appearance and unparalleled temperament.
The scarred man immediately fell silent when he saw that Fuyun Qing was either rich or noble.
Fu Yunqing looked at his wife. She was a skinny and weak woman. Even if her collar was raised up, it could not cover the deep scars. It was as if a man deliberately burned his neck to show off, making others see, "This is my woman." , If you don’t accept it, fight! ', that kind of perverted conquest and dominance, as if women are treated as living objects.
She is not a human being, she is just the property of Scar Man. She can be whipped, humiliated, vented, relieved, and given birth...
Fu Yunqing looked at the other women again. There was indifference, sympathy, fear, helplessness, and distress in their eyes... but there was no resistance.
Looking back at the men, they all had a look of familiarity and no other emotions could be seen.
Fu Yunqing suppressed the emotions surging in her heart, her face was so calm that it was terrifying, and her tone was cold: "It doesn't matter, how many scars you gave her will be branded on your body later."
"Today Mr. Jiang is hearing the case of beating women and children. Women, old and young, who have been beaten can kneel in front of the court to express their feelings."
"My eldest daughter, Fu Yunqing, will kneel in front of the hall together and plead my love for you."
Fu Yunqing lifted up her skirt slightly and knelt on the futon. Her slender back was as straight as a ruler, like a gardenia standing in the wind and snow.
Gardenia blooms all year round, growing white and wild, even when covered with wind and snow, and never withered by frost.
There seemed to be a sound of eagerness behind him.
Perhaps Fu Yunqing's words were too encouraging, or maybe the atmosphere was encouraging, so many women knelt down one after another.
"Bitch, you dare to kneel down in front of the hall and accuse me of beating you?" The scarred man glared at the woman with the mark on her neck, and raised his arm as if to hit her——
The woman knelt down with her child in her arms, her eyes filled with tears and her whole body trembling.
Fu Yunqing swept his eyes sharply: "You dare?"
In front of the hall, Jiang Xingwei slapped the hall with a cold face: "How can I allow you to be so presumptuous in front of the hall?"
The man with the knife hilt's expression changed in horror, and he hurriedly covered his mouth and said nothing.
In the bustling crowd, a man with unobtrusive clothing and an extremely outstanding face and temperament, wearing a light gauze bamboo hat, was looking quietly into the hall. He popped out a green leaf from his fingertips and cut the scarred man's hamstring impartially. .
The man made a clang and knelt down in front of Fu Yunqing.
In fact, Fu Yunqing never expected that dozens of women would kneel behind her.
Some have injuries on their faces, and some have inconvenient legs and feet...
Li Quan looked at so many people kneeling and felt something bad. He looked at Chen Yushi who was supervising the case.
Chen Yushi sat on the left side and nodded slightly towards him to express his peace of mind.
Fu Yunqing had a clear view of the two people's little moves. This was her plan.
The first step is to incite public opinion.
