Fast time travel: Veteran Green Tea is showing off his acting skills again

Chapter 246 The Three Princesses of Master Qin’s Family 23
A damp cage, a narrow strip of moonlight outside the window, ghosts crying and wolves howling around.

Xia Ling sat on the cattail grass, and she was imprisoned for murder.

She still couldn't figure out who she had such a big hatred with, who she had such a big conflict with, why she framed herself at this time, and what exactly she wanted to get.

When I left just now, I didn't see Duan Hangrou.

I don't know where she went. If she knew that she was imprisoned, she would definitely come to rescue her.

Xia Ling's head was stuck against the damp wall, Duan Hangrou became his only hope at this moment.

With this hope, she waited from late night to early morning, then to noon when the sun was shining, and then to nightfall.

But still did not wait for Duan Hangrou or his father to rescue him.

"Eat, eat!"

A jailer outside the door opened the small door of the cage, and passed the bowl of leftovers through the small door.

Xia Ling only leaned forward, smelling the rotten smell, already wanted to vomit, how could he swallow it?

Looking at the cold rice, she couldn't eat it.

Tomorrow, tomorrow someone will come to save me.

Just waiting day after day, counting the rising and setting of the sun, but there is no one who should come.

Only the same cell, the same jailer.

Xia Ling suddenly woke up one day.

Why did I suddenly start to rely on others for salvation?

Obviously relying on others is the most stupid idea.

"time to eat!"

Just as he was thinking, the jailer reached in again.

Xia Ling had not eaten for several days, and her body was swaying weakly when she walked over.

She squatted on the ground, quickly reached out and grabbed the jailer's wrist, "Key, give me the key."

"Let go! Is it possible that you want to escape from prison?! Even if you get the key today, you still can't escape! The prison is heavily guarded, and trying to escape from prison is simply a fantasy. I advise you -"

Xia Ling grabbed the jailer's hand, and when he heard his words stop abruptly, as if someone had strangled his throat, he pulled out his hand twice, and finally the grasped wrist no longer struggled, It became extremely soft, as if it had no bones, drooping casually.

There were a few rustling sounds outside the door, and then a "click" sound of unlocking was heard.

It's father!Is it Duan Hangrou, or Qin Luo? !

Xia Ling's dull eyes were lit again, and she looked longingly at the person who walked in from the door.

But that person was not Duan Hangrou, not his father, nor Qin Luo, but Duan Zhilai, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

Duan Zhilai, wearing the clothes of a jailer, walked into the door and threw the jailer who had just delivered food to Xia Ling into the prison.

"Why is it you?" She sat on the ground, looking up at Duan Zhilai, her voice hoarse and weak.

"It's not me, is there anyone else?" Duan Zhilai pointed to the jailer lying on the ground, "Take off his clothes and put them on, hurry up, I'll take you away."

After saying that, he exited the door again.

Xia Ling glanced at the fainted jailer. Even though he was a man, he didn't care so much, and stretched out his hand to untie the jailer's clothes.

Putting on the changed clothes in a hurry, tidying up quickly, then knocked on the door from the inside, and said to Duan Zhilai outside the door: "I'm ready."

After the words fell, the door opened, and Duan Zhilai hooked Xia Ling, "Follow me, no matter what happens, don't look up, do you understand?"

Xia Ling supported his hat, lowered his head, and replied, "Understood."

The two walked through the cold and damp prison one after the other, followed Duan Zhilai's pace, and finally walked out of the underground.

It was already late at night, and there were not many guards in the prison.

Seeing Duan Zhilai and Xia Ling, he only asked to see the tokens on them, then yawned again and let them go.

Get out of the prison door.

Duan Zhilai hurriedly pulled Xia Ling into a carriage.

"Where are we going?" Xia Ling took off the hat on his head and looked at Duan Zhilai, "Why are you here to save me? Where's my father? Where's Rou'er?"

Duan Zhilai also took off the hat on his head, put his hands on his knees, and looked at Xia Ling with scrutinizing eyes, "You have lost a lot of weight, have you suffered a lot in the past few days?"

Xia Ling continued to ask persistently: "I'm asking you, where's my father? Where's Rou'er? Why didn't they come to rescue me?"

Duan Zhilai frowned, and said slowly: "Rou'er, I'm preparing for a big wedding. Ten days ago, the list was released, Qin Luo High School won the top prize, and the emperor ordered a marriage. Tomorrow is the day of their big wedding."

Big wedding?

How did you get married?

Didn't Duan Hangrou say she would refuse?

Didn't she say that she had a way to prevent the emperor from marrying her and Qin Luo?
"I have told you before." Duan Zhilai naturally knew that she was surprised at this moment, "Rou'er is a princess, she is not a simple silly girl raised by someone else. She has grown up in a harem where you and I are fighting since she was a child. , how can she be as innocent as you imagined? I just told you that every word and every action you see is carefully designed by her. "

Even if actions and words are designed, eyes cannot deceive people.

Xia Ling stared at Duan Zhilai, she couldn't believe that all of these were designed by Duan Hangrou.

Duan Zhilai raised his head to meet her questioning gaze, "You don't believe me."

Xia Ling said firmly, "Yes, I don't believe it."

She didn't believe it, and Duan Zhilai was not surprised.

He asked in a deep voice: "Then let me ask you, what does Alan Maud's father do? Who does he take orders from? Then let me ask you again, how did he bring a knife into such a strict examination room? Let me ask you again, except for the Lantern Festival that Bailiu Academy allows you to go out, why did Duan Hangrou easily run outside to deliver a letter to your father in order to save you?"

Xia Ling frowned and pursed her lips tightly, unable to speak for a long time.

Even if the answer is in her heart, she doesn't know how to admit it, how to face such an answer.

Duan Zhilai asked again: "What is the other name of Bailiu Academy?"

Xia Ling turned his head away and interrupted softly: "Enough."

Duan Zhilai said: "White Willow Academy, also known as the Royal Academy, consists of a few bright talents, a few sons of wealthy businessmen, half of the officials' children, and half of the emperor's relatives. Allen Maud's father is General Allen, whom Your Majesty values ​​most. He obeys orders. The emperor naturally obeys the princess. All the taboos for you in the academy are not the same as for Duan Hangrou. In the academy, she is the biggest."

Xia Ling: "What is she for? If she likes Qin Luo, she can just wait in the palace and wait for Qin Luo to come to her door. Why did she come to the academy to make friends with me on purpose? Why?"

The car was bumping, and Duan Zhilai looked at the puzzled Xia Ling with heavy eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Haven't you noticed? What she wants is not Qin Luo, never has been."

Xia Ling: "Who is that?"

Duan Zhilai said: "It's you. The daughter of the city lord of Yunxia Mountain."
