After having sex with a fake eunuch, I became the queen
Chapter 23 Want to meet
"Qingyue, is your leg really okay? You should try to walk less, but don't let it develop a chronic disease!" Qiao Wan'er pulled Wu Qingyue to sit down together and said worriedly.
It turned out that when she saw Wu Qingyue, the careful Qiao Wan'er noticed at a glance that she walked with a limp. After repeated questioning, she found out that it was because she had not recovered well from the beating she received from Liu Baihe last time.
Seeing that Qiao Wan'er kept talking about her legs, Wu Qingyue quickly reassured her, "It's okay, Sister Wan'er, don't worry too much. It won't affect your walking or your work. It will be fine in a few days."
After saying this, he deliberately lifted that leg off the ground and shook it vigorously a few times to show that he was flexible.
But Qiao Wan'er didn't take it seriously. Instead, her expression became more solemn. She stared at Wu Qingyue's leg with a frown on her face. Qingyue was beaten because of her, and she hadn't recovered for so long. She must have injured her muscles and bones, and she didn't get good care of her.
"Okay, okay, Sister Wan'er, stop staring at my legs and tell me how you stabbed that old bastard to death with just one pair of scissors that day? How can you be so powerful!" Wu Qingyue interrupted Qiao Wan'er's self-blaming gaze and quickly changed the subject.
"No, it wasn't just one scissors, I... I used two scissors... I don't know how I hit the vital point by accident... Oh... let's not talk about this anymore! By the way, speaking of Liu Baihe, what happened? Did she really fall into the lake and drown?" Qiao Wan'er seemed reluctant to talk about her bravery in killing the enemies. After saying a few perfunctory words, she quickly changed the subject like Wu Qingyue.
"Of course not, he must have been dragged into this by Shuxiu's wronged spirit, hahaha!" Seeing that Qiao Wan'er was unwilling to talk about what happened that day, and probably didn't want to recall that horrible scene, Wu Qingyue stopped asking and happily took over the new topic... and it was a topic she also wanted to talk about very much.
"Qingyue, stop joking and tell me what's going on."
"Sister Wan'er, did you hear the news of Liu Baihe's drowning from the jailer in the death row?"
"That's right. When I heard the jailer talk about it in prison, I couldn't believe it."
"Sister, you probably don't know yet. It was Fuzhi's idea to ask the jailer to tell you the good news so that you can go on your journey happily."
"What did you say? Was the jailer bribed to tell me the news? Or was it Fuzhi's idea? What... is going on?" Qiao Wan'er looked shocked.
"Sister, after you were imprisoned in the death row, Fuzhi came to me secretly one day and said that he wanted to bribe the jailer and the executioner, hoping that the jailer would take better care of you and let the executioner behead you more easily. However, it was inconvenient for him, a eunuch, to come forward, so he wanted me to help deliver the silver. Then he gave me twenty taels of silver."
"What? Twenty taels of silver? Where did he get so much money?" Before Wu Qingyue could continue, Qiao Wan'er interrupted in surprise.
"Sister, don't you think he is the son of a landlord? A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although his family is in decline, he should still have some wealth, right?"
"And then what? You used the money he gave you to bribe the jailer and the executioner?"
"Then, I followed his instructions and went to find a pawn named Hu Qi in the Shenxing Division. Fuzhi told me that Hu Qi was a pimp who specialized in collecting stolen money for the people in the prison. It turned out that more money meant easier work. When the man saw the heavy silver I handed over, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth and readily agreed to do the work for me."
No wonder she ate well and slept well in prison, and the jailer took good care of her and told her the news of Liu Baihe's death - this news really made her happy for a few days, and at least she didn't have to worry about Wu Qingyue being harassed by this person.
No wonder the executioner on the guillotine kindly pointed out to her the little emperor where to watch the execution.
How many kind-hearted people are there in the world? It's just that money makes the world go round.
"Qingyue, I'm about to die, why are you still helping him spend that money? That's twenty taels of silver... cough cough cough!" Qiao Wan'er might really have never seen the world. When she heard that twenty taels of silver were wasted, she was so angry that she couldn't breathe before she finished her words. She covered her chest and coughed hard.
"Sister Wan'er, don't be anxious. If you really die, the twenty taels of silver will not be wasted at all!" Wu Qingyue quickly stretched out a hand to stroke Qiao Wan'er's back to help her calm down.
"It's okay that the jailer took the money. I had good meals three times a day in prison. But the executioner took the money and didn't give me a quick death. Isn't this money wasted in vain?" Qiao Wan'er looked heartbroken, as if she couldn't wait to get stabbed and earn the money back.
Wu Qingyue looked at Qiao Wan'er who was confused and laughed, "Sister Wan'er, you were able to survive, which is something that even ten thousand taels of gold could not buy. How can you calculate it like this? Besides, the money is not yours. It was paid by Fuzhi, the sucker, on his own accord. Why do you have to feel bad about it? Hahaha!"
"I don't want to owe anyone money. If I really die, I won't have to pay it back. Since I'm alive, I still have to pay it back." "Pay back the money? You didn't force him to pay the money. He gave it willingly. Why should you pay him back?"
"But that money is for me!"
"Sister Wan'er, I think the money I gave to the executioner was not wasted!"
"No white flowers? Why do you say that?"
"Although the executioner didn't cut your neck, he must have hit your head with the back of the knife. So I say your money was not wasted, hahaha!" After saying this, Wu Qingyue burst into laughter again.
It took Qiao Wan'er a long time to realize the meaning of her words, and she flicked her head with her backhand: "Girl, you really don't say a single serious word! By the way, you still haven't told me how Liu Baihe fell into the lake and drowned?"
"This is a bit strange. After Xu Shixin got into trouble, Liu Baihe was probably afraid that she would be investigated. After all, she was the one who recommended you to Xu Shixin. So one night, she took a package of pearls, hairpins and rings and ran to the woods by Tingchao Lake, intending to dig a pit and bury them. She said that the treasures in the package were given to her by Xu Shixin, and they must have done some shameful exchange. As a result, when she was digging the pit, she somehow alarmed the night patrol Yulin guards. She was so scared that she ran away, and in a panic, she tripped and fell into the lake. Because it was too dark, when the Yulin soldiers fished her out, she was already dead, and she was still carrying the heavy package on her back."
"What! How could it be like this! Her luck is so bad!" Qiao Wan'er opened her mouth for a long time in astonishment, as if she couldn't digest this bizarre thing.
"Who said it wasn't? That's why I said it was Shuxiu's spirit appearing. Of course, we don't know how many treasures Xu Shixin had taken from the bodies of concubines who were buried alive with the emperor. Any one of them could be possessed by a wronged soul, hahaha!"
After hearing this "ghost story", Qiao Wan'er immediately fell into deep thought. Although she was also happy, she still felt it was incredible - how could Liu Baihe, such a cautious person, do such a flawed thing and even lose his life. This reincarnation was so immediate, maybe it was really the appearance of some wronged soul!
"By the way, Sister Wan'er, have you seen Fuzhi again since you were released from prison?"
"Ah, I, haven't seen it." When Xiao Wan'er heard Wu Qingyue ask this, her cheeks unconsciously became hot.
"Sister, do you want to see him?"
"Qingyue, what do you mean by that?" Qiao Wan'er's face became even hotter.
"I met Fuzhi by chance in the palace a few days ago. When he saw me, he seemed to want to say something but hesitated. I guess he really wants to see you, hahaha!" Wu Qingyue seemed to have noticed Qiao Wan'er's shy look and said in a joking tone.
"Qingyue, you..." Qiao Wan'er's face turned even redder and she was suddenly speechless.
"As for Fuzhi, I don't have a good impression of him because of Shuxiu's incident. He is timid and cowardly. Look, he didn't even dare to go to the pimp to give him money, and he had to ask me for help..."
"Fuzhi...he is not as timid as you think. He doesn't want to show up because he is afraid of gossip. If you didn't have so much money given by him, you wouldn't be able to accomplish anything, right?" Qiao Wan'er didn't agree at all that Fuzhi was a coward. After all, she saw with her own eyes that Fuzhi killed Xu Shixin cleanly and efficiently. In her mind, this little eunuch had long become King Lanling. So before Wu Qingyue finished speaking, she interrupted and refuted.
"Oh, Sister Wan'er, can't you bear to hear others say he's not good? In this matter, he really did a pretty good job. He spent all his money to find a way to send you on your way. It can be seen that he really cares about you, Sister Wan'er, don't you agree?"
When Qiao Wan'er heard Wu Qingyue say this, she didn't know how to respond. Her face turned red and she didn't say a word for a long time.
"Then sister, tell me, do you really want to see him?
"I...I still have to pay him back. Of course I want to see him."
