After having sex with a fake eunuch, I became the queen
Chapter 24 See you again
After knowing that there was a "hidden line" named Qiao Wan'er around Fuzhi, Ji Yin found out everything about the people and things around her. Later, when Qiao Wan'er was imprisoned, he deliberately appeared in front of her best sister Wu Qingyue, and observed her words and expressions. He found out that Wu Qingyue knew about Fuzhi, so he asked her to come forward to find the informant for bribery.
As for Liu Baihe, Ji Yin had heard about her disgusting pimping affairs from more than one person, so he even found an opportunity to recognize this person's face, hoping to see if he would have the chance to disgust this person in the future.
I didn't expect this opportunity to come too soon.
Liu Baihe might really be unlucky. When she was digging a hole in the woods in the middle of the night, she was targeted by a hidden "ghost". That "ghost" was none other than Prince Ying Geng, Ji Yin, who had sneaked into the palace pretending to be a eunuch. He happened to be doing business in the woods as well - to retrieve the information placed by the secret agents in the woods.
Seeing Liu Baihe stealthily digging a hole in the woods with a bag of things, Ji Wei immediately guessed that it must be some money of unknown origin, so he was "evil-minded": he might as well take the opportunity to kill this person. A woman as righteous as Qiao Wan'er had to die, so why should such a person be allowed to live? At least as far as he knew, she was not free from the death of Li Shuxiu and Qiao Wan'er, and the heavy jewels were bought at the cost of countless innocent lives.
After this idea came to his mind, he looked around. Because he was hiding high up in the trunk of a tree and could see far away, he vaguely caught a glimpse of a small team of guards with lanterns patrolling outside the woods. Then he suddenly came up with the idea of "killing with a borrowed knife".
He took out a stone that he carried with him as a hidden weapon, gathered all his internal strength and threw it, hitting a bird's nest on a branch not far away. The birds were startled and flew away. The movement startled the guards on night patrol, and the guards rushed into the woods following the sound.
Liu Baihe, who was digging a hole carefully, was naturally frightened by this sudden situation. She hurriedly took the treasure and fled to the other direction of the forest. Because it was dark night, her legs and feet were still nimble, and she managed to avoid the guards' pursuit by running and hiding.
Finally, she managed to escape from the woods and ran to the road beside the lake embankment, but before she had taken two steps, she was "sent" into the lake by an inexplicable force behind her - it was the "death ghost" that was following her that flew up and kicked her into the lake, giving her a chance to continue to please Xu Shixin.
Liu Baihe didn't know the truth about why she fell into the lake until her death. She thought it was the pursuers behind her who caused her to fall into the water.
The guards heard the cry for help from someone who fell into the water, so they rushed over. The person who fell into the water was no longer making any sound, and the instigator who was hiding in the dark was no longer at the scene, disappearing without a trace. The guards all thought that the person who made the noise in the forest was the one who fell into the water because he slipped and fell in the panic. During the whole process, the murderer Ji Wei was a mysterious person. This time, he didn't need anyone to take the blame for him. He just "whitewashed" the murder as an accident and got away with it perfectly.
When he heard that Qiao Wan'er didn't have to die, although he didn't show his joy like Lu Yi, Ji Yin also felt an indescribable sense of relief in his heart, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Logically speaking, he would be safest if the woman who knew that he killed Xu Shixin died, but it might be because he felt very embarrassed to let a weak woman take the blame for him, so he had such a reaction.
There was another "abnormal" reaction. A few days ago, Wu Qingyue sent a message saying that Qiao Wan'er wanted to see him. In his heart, he was too embarrassed to see her, but on the surface, he acted like a person who hadn't eaten buns for a long time and suddenly heard that he could eat buns, and he was overjoyed and agreed.
However, there is nothing wrong with this - since the two are in a concubinage relationship, the man helps the woman kill people, and the woman dies for the man. When the man hears that the woman wants to meet him after escaping death, he becomes ecstatic - he has acted the role quite well.
"Is this eunuch wrapping the tree in winter clothes?"
Ji Yin, who was working on the tree, trembled slightly all over when he heard the call. He quickly held onto the branch beside him with one hand and looked down - the person standing under the tree, looking up and calling out to him was none other than Qiao Wan'er.
She was still dressed as a palace maid in the same dark green skirt and holding a bamboo basket in her hand. Her hair was neatly combed. The two dark circles under her eyes that always appeared on her face were gone. Her complexion was much better than before, and her cheeks seemed rounder. She must have eaten well in prison.
The woman's eyes were filled with smiles, and the way she looked up at him made Ji Yin a little dazed - maybe they hadn't seen each other for only a month or so? Why did it make people feel like they hadn't seen each other for hundreds of years?
"Yes... I'm packing winter clothes. Does Auntie have any instructions?"
"I want to pick some berries to take back, but I'm afraid the picking season has passed. I've looked in several places but can't find any. Can you take a look and see if there are any berries higher up on this tree?"
"Oh... I'll go up and take a look." Ji Ying jumped up from the top of the tree like a monkey, "Aunt is lucky, there are still a lot of fruits left on this tree."
Seeing that Fuzhi had climbed so high that she could hardly see him, Qiao Wan'er's heart tightened: "Eunuch, please be careful. Don't..."
Before she could finish her words, something was suddenly thrown down from the tree and flew straight into the basket in her hands as if it had eyes - it was a berry that Fuzhi had dropped from the tree.
"The higher the altitude, the more fruits are left. There are really quite a few!" After saying that, the people on the tree began to play "tossing a pot"... The fruits were thrown down one by one and landed steadily in the basket.
Qiao Wan'er showed a bright smile, raised her arm, and moved the bamboo basket to her other hand. She actually wanted to change the position of the basket on purpose, but she didn't expect that even if she changed the position of the basket, the fruits were still thrown in without fail.
"My father-in-law's skill in throwing fruits is really amazing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt something hit him on the head, and then he covered his head and cried out "ouch".
"Ah, Auntie, you insist on praising me, but I just can't stand being praised. Look, I failed!"
As soon as the man on the tree finished speaking, another fruit flew down and hit the woman on the head. This time, Qiao Wan'er didn't care about covering her head, and quickly bent down to pick up the two fallen fruits. After picking up the fruits into the basket, she stood up and was about to ask the tree - why did you deliberately throw fruits at me?
Just when he didn't want to look up, he found that the person who was throwing fruits from the tree just now was standing right in front of him. He had his hands in the hem of his robe, which was filled with a bunch of fruits.
This guy's movements were really fast, just as fast as the last time when he turned around and ran after killing Xu Shixin. And how could he get down to the ground from such a high place in such a short time - I didn't know before that he actually had some skills of a martial artist.
"There are no more fruits on the tree. I picked them all." Ji Yin took another step closer with the fruits in his robe and moved the fruits in Qiao Wan'er's hand one by one.
For some reason, when Fuzhi approached, Qiao Wan'er felt uncomfortable. She didn't know what to do with her hands and feet. Her face even felt slightly hot. She said something to make conversation: "Fuzhi, why...why did you hit me on the head with the fruit?"
"Aunt, you are innocent. I was careless. I really was careless!" Ji Ying raised one corner of his mouth and showed a mischievous smile while speaking.
"Fuzhi... don't deny it, you... did it on purpose." When Qiao Wan'er saw the joking smile of the man in front of her, she felt strange in her heart. She suddenly felt that this man was very different from before. As for how different, she couldn't tell. Although the nose was still the same nose, and the eyes were still the same eyes, why did she like him more and more the more she looked at him?
After putting the fruit away, Ji Yin took a step back and stood there, slightly bowing his body. In fact, he was shaking off the dust on the hem of his robe, but it looked like he was bowing and greeting. So he used this gesture to continue jokingly saying, "I am innocent. I really didn't mean it! Aunt, please spare me."
Qiao Wan'er was so amused that she burst out laughing, and then she shifted her gaze from "Fuzhi's" face to his body again. She suddenly felt that this man's physique was very different from before, and she just wanted to take another look at him.
"Fuzhi, this is a return to you." After appreciating the performance of the person in front of her, Qiao Wan'er took out something from her sleeve pocket and handed it to "Fuzhi" - it was a light chrysanthemum-colored purse.
"What is this?" "Fuzhi" took the purse.
"Didn't you give Qingyue twenty taels to help me with this? I don't have that much silver on hand, so I'll return you two taels of change first."
Upon hearing this, Fuzhi opened his purse and actually checked to see if there was any money inside. He then took out some silver and put it into Qiao Waner's bamboo basket: "Aunt doesn't owe me any money, so take the silver back. But this purse is really pretty, I'd be disrespectful to refuse it!"
After saying this, he took the purse and examined it carefully: "Did my aunt embroider the chrysanthemums on it herself?"
"I embroidered it for fun."
"Unfortunately……"
"What's the pity?"
"It's a pity that the purse doesn't have a pair of mandarin ducks embroidered on it."
When the woman heard such a sentence, "Sima Zhao's intention is known to everyone", her face turned red, but she still bit the bullet and replied shyly: "Since...since the eunuch likes mandarin ducks so much, how about I embroider a mandarin duck handkerchief for the eunuch next time?"
When the man heard the woman say this, a smile as bright as a spring flower appeared on his face: "Wan'er, you must keep your word!"
After saying this, he seemed to suddenly think of something and quickly took out something from his arms - it was a small branch with a few small flowers.
The man still had a spring-like smile on his face. He stretched out his hand and handed the flower to the woman: "Wan'er, this daisy is for you!"
*
Ever since Qiao Wan'er admitted to Wu Qingyue that she wanted to see Fuzhi, Wu Qingyue became the mouthpiece between the two of them, and the chances of them "encountering" each other increased. However, it was not necessarily the case that each of them would be "alone" every time they "encountered".
Today, Qiao Wan'er finally got lucky. When she was picking berries alone at the outer wall of the Imperial Garden, she saw "Fuzhi" wrapping winter clothes on a berry tree, so she walked towards him happily.
