Chapter 262 - This Subordinate's Eyes Are Blind

Wei Qing blinked her eyes, thinking, could it be that Xiao Qingqian wanted to reveal his identity after there are so many people around?

But what was the purpose of calling the magistrate now?

Just as the constable was about to forcefully put on the shackles for Xiao Qingqian, Xiao Qingqian's palm flipped and landed heavily on his chest.

"Owehhhhhhh ~ ~ ~"

The constable was like a kite with its string cut as he hit the door and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Seeing more blood flowing out from Xiao Qingqian's shoulder, Wei Qing hurried forward, "Are you alright?"

The constable was so scared that he lost half of his soul in an instant. After being yelled at like this, he quickly ran out of the dungeon.

Soon, the magistrate appeared in the dungeon.

Looking at Xiao Qingqian standing in the distance, no matter how he looked, he did not look like a person who was running for his life.

Glancing at the Grand Master, the two of them fearfully walked in front of Xiao Qingqian.

Xiao Qingqian's cold eyes slowly landed on the County Magistrate's face, making him look like an X-ray machine, causing everyone's heart to palpitate wildly.

"Do you recognize this?" Xiao Qingqian revealed his own waist.

The magistrate blinked his eyes as he saw a "Chu" mark on his waist, and a chill ran down his spine.

"You, you are …" The county magistrate pointed at Xiao Qingqian, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

Wei Qing said in an enraged voice, "You casually found a scapegoat, do you really think that it's so easy to pacify the people?"

The county magistrate's gaze suddenly shifted to Wei Qing's face, and fell on her knees with a "putong".

"This official was blind and could not recognize the Prince Chu and the Princess Chu. This official deserves to die, I hope that Your Highness and the Princess Chu will forgive me this time!"

Grand Master and the other guards also knelt down.

Xiao Qingqian looked at the county magistrate coldly, "You recognize this duke's wangfei?"

The county magistrate raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat off his forehead, "This official has met Prime Minister Wei several times, I have also seen his only daughter."

Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows. "If you did not capture this king and his wife, you would have killed a good person. Are you worthy of this black gauze hat on your head?"

"This King and Princess Wangfei were attacked by the fierce tiger. Princess simply cut off the fierce tiger's claws and tried to remove the tiger's bones. This King doesn't believe that you haven't seen the contents of the bundle!"

"Now that the word has been released, if you don't kill the two of them, I am afraid it will make the people more worried!"

The county magistrate was startled, then understood that Xiao Qingqian was helping him catch a perverted bandit!

He hastily replied, "Please enlighten me, Your Highness."

Just from this short sentence, Wei Qing could easily guess that Xiao Qingqian would do as he pleased!

Indeed, it was as she had expected. Xiao Qingqian had the magistrate casually pick out two people from amongst the death row, and put on a hood made of black cloth.

All of a sudden, the fear in the hearts of the citizens disappeared.

The county magistrate, however, felt uneasy. He turned to look at Xiao Qingqian, "Your Highness, will this desperate guy really appear?"

Xiao Qingqian frowned slightly, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, "It might not be tonight, it might be in two days."

In any case, he was currently in the forbidden grounds, so it would be good if he could spend more time with Wei Qing.

Hearing this, the magistrate frowned, "Then if the commoners come out at night, won't that be perfect?"

"I'll have to rely on the county's order." If This King is to take everything into consideration for you, then what is the purpose of a county magistrate like you? "

The magistrate shivered as the corners of his mouth curled up stiffly.

Wei Qing nodded her head, and did not hide her ridicule as she looked at the County Official, "It's better to pick one out now, so that no one will misunderstand you as a bandit."

The county magistrate's expression changed drastically. "Princess, please calm your anger!"

Xiao Qingqian ordered for the things that Wei Qing needed to prepare to be done, and very quickly, he took out the tiger bone and soaked it in yellow wine.

Wei Qing sighed, rubbed her shoulder, and accidentally pulled the wound on her back.

Seeing her pained expression, Xiao Qingqian waved at her.

Wei Qing frowned, "What are you doing?"

"Don't you dare try to dig a hole for me to jump into!"

When Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows, he flicked his finger at her and released a stream of Qi.

Wei Qing's acupoints were sealed, unable to move an inch.

Xiao Qingqian slowly walked closer to her, and slowly untied her clothes.

When Argent White as Jade's back appeared before his eyes, Xiao Qingqian's breathing suddenly sunk.

He raised his hand, and gently caressed the wounds on Wei Qing's back that had already been covered in dirt.

Following his actions, Wei Qing's heart rose to the skies as well.

"Don't be nervous."

Xiao Qingqian ordered his men to take the medicinal wine and spread it on his hands, helping him to massage his wounds.

Wei Qing was truly nervous, her entire body tensed up as she remained on alert.

She thought of the method he had taught her to channel and tried to open her acupoints.

Unfortunately, her internal energy wasn't strong enough, and she didn't have a precise method of breaking through the acupoints either. Everything was in vain.

Xiao Qingqian's scorching hot breath sprayed onto Wei Qing's body, causing her heartbeat to stop.

"Xiao Qingqian, you are a man of honor, you …"

Before she could finish her nervous and fearful words, she was cut off by Xiao Qingqian's hoarse voice. "This king cannot sit still and do nothing!"

What do you mean?

Wei Qing's eyes were wide open, "Don't act recklessly!"

"If you continue shouting like that, This King really has no guarantee that he won't do anything rash!"

Wei Qing clenched her teeth, preventing the curse that was about to spill out from her mouth.

Xiao Qingqian adjusted his breathing a little, and after smearing the medicinal wine on her, blew two breaths and touched it a little. After confirming that the medicinal wine was completely dry, he pulled up her clothes.

As he said that, he poked Wei Qing's body.

With his acupoints undone, Wei Qing heaved a sigh of relief, quickly dodging and buttoning her collar.

Xiao Qingqian walked out of the room and took deep breaths repeatedly, barely managing to adjust his breathing.

In the evening, the county magistrate entertained Xiao Qingqian and Wei Qing with good wine and dishes, but the two of them did not eat and drink.

"Do you want to go out for a walk?" Xiao Qingqian asked.

Wei Qing frowned as she thought about it, before she shook her head.

"You don't want to sacrifice yourself?"

"What do you mean?" Wei Qing blinked her eyes.

"Use you as bait and lure that thief to take the bait."

Hearing that, Wei Qing's breathing suddenly became heavy, "Xiao Qingqian, can you still not have any more conscience?"
