After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 199 Imprisonment

"This person's alcohol tolerance is too poor. He had to collapse at such a critical moment. I am really impressed."

A trace of disappointment flashed across Xu Yingying's eyes, and then she muttered in dissatisfaction.

After saying that, she took her things and prepared to leave Guo's house, and then continue investigating Guo Shaoqi when she had the chance.

Xu Yingying had just walked a few steps out of the house when Cui'er stopped him and said, "Your servant greets Lord Xu."

Xu Yingying was slightly stunned, a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

"Reporting to Lord Xu, I am here waiting for you on the orders of the princess." Cui'er replied to Xu Yingying with a smile.

"Wait for me?" Xu Yingying asked in confusion.

"Yes, please get on the sedan chair, Lord Xu." After saying that, Cui'er immediately pulled Xu Yingying onto the sedan chair without caring about Xu Yingying's reaction, and then asked her men to lift the sedan chair and leave.

Just like that, before Xu Yingying could react, Cui'er took her to Li Qinyuan's room.

Li Qinyuan looked at Xu Yingying, who had drunk a little bit of wine, and her heart was suddenly moved.

Xu Yingying's originally fair face turned red because of drinking.

When Li Qinyuan saw this, she immediately liked Xu Yingying very much. Li Qinyuan's hand couldn't help but reach out to Xu Yingying. Unfortunately, before she touched Xu Yingying, Xu Yingying jumped to the side like a catapult, as if Li Qinyuan was some kind of monster.

After this incident, Xu Yingying was almost sober and became very clear-headed.

However, Li Qinyuan was very dissatisfied with Xu Yingying's behavior. "Xu Yingying, what's your reaction? Are you looking down on me? Do you know that there are many people who want to marry me, and you are not the only one."

Li Qinyuan's cheeks were puffed up like a goldfish, and it seemed that she was very angry with Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Really? Then please choose someone else as your husband! You are so beautiful, I really can't marry you."

Li Qinyuan's face turned blue with anger when she heard this. "Xu Yingying, I advise you not to be shameless. It is your blessing that this princess likes you. Do you know that? I must make it a fait accompli today and get you."

After saying that, Li Qinyuan reached out to grab Xu Yingying.

Seeing this, Xu Yingying quickly dodged to the side, and Li Qinyuan missed her and almost fell. If Cui'er hadn't been quick to support her, Li Qinyuan might have fallen to the ground.

Li Qinyuan was so angry when she saw Xu Yingying like this, "You, you, you really don't know how to be gentle with women at all!"

Seeing Li Qinyuan's expression, Xu Yingying shook her head helplessly and could not help but continue to persuade her: "Princess, why are you doing this? Why do you have to hang yourself on a tree? Look back, there is a large forest waiting for you. You can pick any one you want."

Xu Yingying persuaded Li Qinyuan earnestly.

Xu Yingying herself seemed to be trying hard to persuade Li Qinyuan, but in fact her words were undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire for Li Qinyuan.

In fact, when Xu Yingying learned that Li Qinyuan almost fell, she subconsciously wanted to reach out to help Li Qinyuan, but she was afraid that her action would give Li Qinyuan some messy ideas, so between being a gentleman and watching coldly, Xu Yingying chose to watch coldly.

Perhaps Xu Yingying's behavior completely angered Li Qinyuan. Li Qinyuan immediately pointed at Xu Yingying's nose and yelled, "Okay, you wait! You don't like me, right? I will imprison you in this yard. Calm yourself down. When you have figured it out, send someone to find me and release you."

After saying that, Li Qinyuan left without looking back.

When Xu Yingying heard this, she was suddenly overwhelmed.

What kind of people are these? They rely on their power to imprison people. Really?

Xu Yingying saw that two strong guards were posted to guard the gate of the courtyard where she was imprisoned.

Xu Yingying immediately gave up the idea of ​​climbing over the wall and sneaking away. She turned around and went back to her room to sleep.

At this time, Li Siqi was walking back and forth in the study anxiously.

"No news yet? Why hasn't Xu Yingying come back yet so late?" Li Siqi asked Xu Ruohao who was standing beside him.

Xu Ruohao shook his head and replied to Li Siqi helplessly: "Your Highness, there is indeed no news about Lord Xu. Lord Xu disappeared without a trace after entering the capital."

When Li Siqi heard this, his face suddenly changed. After thinking for a while, Li Siqi finally decided to go to Beijing overnight to see what was going on and where Xu Yingying had gone.

Li Siqi was afraid of being recognized, so he disguised himself and entered the capital overnight.

After some investigation by his spies in the capital, Li Siqi soon discovered that Xu Yingying was being held in Li Qinyuan's home.

Upon hearing the news, Li Siqi could not wait to climb over the wall and sneak into Prince Dun's mansion that night. At this time, Xu Yingying was lying half-dead on the bed.

Perhaps in order to make Xu Yingying surrender faster, Li Qinyuan did not allow anyone to see Xu Yingying during this period, and kept Xu Yingying locked in the room and did not allow her to come out.

In this way, Xu Yingying successfully suffered mental torture from Li Qinyuan.

Soon, Xu Yingying looked very weak and even appeared dazed in just a few days.

Just as Xu Yingying was lying on the bed half-dead and in a daze, Li Siqi took advantage of the guard at the door not paying attention and quietly slipped into the yard and jumped in through the window of the room.

"Xu Yingying, Xu Yingying, are you okay?" Li Siqi couldn't help but speak as he looked at Xu Yingying lying on the bed with a numb face.

"Huh? Who's calling me?" Xu Yingying sat up with a confused look on her face.

Looking around, she immediately saw Li Siqi. Unfortunately, Xu Yingying had been locked up for too long, and she was already a little confused and could no longer distinguish between reality and illusion.

Xu Yingying was so excited that she even forgot to put on her shoes. She ran barefoot to Li Siqi, hugged him and murmured to herself, "Li Siqi, it's great that I can still see you in my dreams, you know? Woo woo woo, they have been locking me up like a prisoner, you have to come and save me quickly!"

As Xu Yingying spoke, she began to cry out of grievance.

"Uuuuuu——"

"Who are they? They really don't treat me as a human being."

"If you can't have me, you'll destroy me!"

Xu Yingying complained dissatisfiedly.

Seeing this, Li Siqi quickly covered Xu Yingying's mouth with his hand, but it was too late.

The guard at the door heard the noise inside and shouted alertly: "Who? Who's in there?"

"Who dares to break into the princess' room?"

After saying that, the guards came in to check the situation.
