Chapter 125 Speak Out
The sound of breaking bones rushed into his brain through his eardrums. Xu Ning's whole body was convulsing in pain. He wanted to cover his injured jaw with his hands, but his whole body was tied up tightly and he could not move.
He thought that he would be subjected to various tortures if he failed, but he never thought that the torture would come so suddenly.
He stared at Su Qingqing with bloodshot eyes. His broken jaw could not hold a clear word. He cursed incoherently, "Don't even think about getting a single word from me."
Su Qingqing looked down on others, smiled contemptuously, slowly took out her handkerchief, and wiped her fingers that were stained with Xu Ning's blood one by one.
"I don't want to know anything from you."
After wiping it clean, she threw the dirty handkerchief at Xu Ning's face, lazily but with murderous intent, "Drag him out and bury him alive in public!"
After giving the chillingly cold command, Su Qingqing turned around and pulled a chair inside the room to sit down.
Xu Ning's pupils dimmed for a moment, and he was overwhelmed by such panic that he didn't even know how to fight back.
If he was tortured, then if his backers acted quickly enough, he would be safe.
But now, the Crown Princess didn't even interrogate him.
Xu Ning swallowed subconsciously and looked at Rong Que.
Rong Que turned his body to one side and looked at Xu Ning. "You are just a dead chess piece used by others to kill Su Yunhe. I won't get anything valuable by interrogating you. I don't want to waste my time."
After saying that, he waved his hand to signal Minglu to take the person away without even a glance.
Ming Lu had just made a mistake, and after receiving the instruction, he immediately arrested the person and left.
The fear at this moment reached its peak in Xu Ning's heart.
I've been with you for so many years, and you don't even want to ask me why I betrayed you?
Don't you want to know who I obey after I betray you?
Aren’t you curious about why Su Yunhe suddenly vomited blood?
Don't you want to know the news I have?
Countless thoughts flooded into Xu Ning's mind, but he was gagged and dragged away by Minglu, and he didn't even see Rong Que's eyes when he left.
Xu Ning was dragged away, and the only sound left in the room was Su Yunhe's rapid breathing.
Su Qingqing smiled contemptuously, "Your Highness really trusts me. Aren't you afraid that Su Yunhe will die?"
Rong Que walked towards her with a smile, "You are not afraid, so why should I be afraid? You came all the way from Zhao Country, isn't he one of your targets?"
Su Qingqing looked at Rong Que. Rong Que kept smiling, with curved eyebrows, and let him look at him.
It seemed as if the environment at this moment was perfectly connected to the osmanthus tree just now, as if the person lying next to him was not a person who was convulsing due to poisoning.
Their eyes were entangled for a moment, Rong Que lightly twisted his fingers and leaned down.
The autumn night is slightly cool.
Su Qingqing's lips were cool, mixed with the smell of Su Yunhe's blood. Rong Que was like a bloodthirsty insect when he saw the blood. He heaved his chest and wanted to ravage and grind this softness fiercely.
Su Qingqing breathed rapidly, responding to him and fighting back.
Just as Rong Que couldn't help but move his fingers to Su Qingqing's back, Su Qingqing suddenly turned her head away and avoided this dangerous game of adults.
"Your Highness, are you still drunk?"
She raised her hand frivolously, and her slender white fingers gently touched the corner of Rong Que's mouth, wiping away the crystal clear spots on his mouth.
Rong Que's hot hand grabbed Su Qingqing's hand, brought her four fingers together, and kissed her fingertips, "Only alcohol can make people brave, but there is no such thing as drunken promiscuity."
He looked at Su Qingqing seriously.
Next to him, Su Yunhe was gasping for breath, his voice tearing and broken.
"Really? Too bad I don't like being someone else's stand-in."
She was still entangled with him fiercely just now, but at this moment, Su Qingqing's voice was full of playful coolness.
"Let's not talk about feelings, just talk about the body, maybe we can get along happily."
Rong Que was stunned and looked at Su Qingqing in astonishment.
Su Qingqing smiled carelessly, "Why? Your Highness, why do you look at me like that? When you kissed me, was it really me in your mind instead of your beloved?"
Rong Que: ...
"You have a white moonlight, but I don't have a cinnabar mole. If we talk about feelings, I will suffer, but I can abandon feelings..."
Su Qingqing had one hand held by Rong Que, and she raised her other hand and gently stroked Rong Que's facial features, "You meet the conditions for me to indulge you once."
Rong Que: ...
He held Su Qingqing's hand tightly, "Aren't you afraid of being too indulgent? Are you addicted to me?"
As if she heard something funny, Su Qingqing tilted her head and smiled, then looked back at him, "Can you forget your white moonlight if you indulge yourself too much?"
Rong Que's eyes were firm, "If I only love you inside and out, can you talk about feelings with me?"
The words that were not asked under the osmanthus tree just now were asked again in a different environment and in a different way.
Su Yunhe might really be dying, his rapid breathing turned into slow gasps.
"That depends on your ability, Your Highness." Su Qingqing gently patted Rong Que's cheek.
Rong Que placed Su Qingqing's hand on his face and rubbed it lightly, "Then I'll show you what the prince can do."
The bloody atmosphere is not ambiguous but also weird.
As we were talking, we heard hurried footsteps outside.
Minglu and Jixiang came back one after the other. Behind Jixiang was Chunjiao, the top girl in Suihonglou.
Maybe when Jixiang left, Chunjiao was still at a patron's wine table, with the smell of alcohol on her clothes. As soon as she entered the door, she went straight to Su Yunhe without even having time to greet him.
She had prepared a long silver needle in her hand at some point. She placed the needle over the candle and heated it for a moment, then inserted it into the acupuncture point on Su Yunhe's head.
Then, she took out a small cloth bag from her body, unfolded it, revealing rows of silver needles and a row of porcelain bottles inside. Everything was ready, and she breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Su Qingqing.
Su Qingqing still sat there lazily, "Just keep your life."
Chunjiao said nothing more and turned around to start using the needles and medicine.
Jixiang stood beside Su Qingqing and whispered, "Mother Du said that Gao Xinyang's mother was taken away by the steward of the Second Prince's residence. As for where she was taken, it has not been found out yet."
After Jixiang finished speaking, Rongque looked at Minglu, and Minglu immediately walked out.
As long as we have a target, there is no need to worry about finding the person. However, the Prince’s Mansion is now confined, and it is a bit difficult to go in and out.
As Minglu walked, Rong Que suddenly realized what was happening. He looked at Su Qing in astonishment, "Jixiang's kung fu is just average, right?"
Jixiang's eyes twitched as he looked at Rongque, "Why are you making personal attacks when things are going well?"
Rong Que: ...
Su Qingqing knew what Rong Que meant and said with a smile: “Although Jixiang’s kung fu is average, her greatest strength is wall climbing.
Otherwise, how could we have broken through the heavy guards in the palace of Zhaoguo and sneaked out to play?"
Rong Que knew that Su Qingqing was not telling the truth.
