The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 133: Father Chu goes to jail, night spying (3)
Mingliu took a step forward and replied: "They are looking for suitable orphans under the order of Miss."

"Send a message telling them to come back immediately." Chu Qing pursed her lips, and then ordered: "Call Xu Chong to see me too."

"Yes." Ming Liu took the order and left.

When only Chu Qing was left in the room, her complexion turned gloomy, her eyes flashed coldly, and she said harshly, "Wen Qingzhu, if you want to play with me, don't regret it."

Duan Dao and Fu Su soon returned to the Chu residence, and even Xu Chong secretly sneaked into the pear garden. After the three of them knelt down to worship Chu Qing, Chu Qing immediately ordered: "Duan Dao, I want you to closely monitor the imperial envoy Wen Qingzhu. Report every move you make at any time. Fusu, you transfer the included people to the cottage, and speed up the transaction with the Hu family."

"Yes."

Duan Dao and Fu Su took orders.

Chu Qing looked at Xu Chong again, with dark eyes: "I want you to ask Wen Qingzhu for gold and silver from wealthy households in Anning within one night. Everyone knows where the disaster is."

"This subordinate will not disgrace his life!" Xu Chong clasped his fists and said.

Chu Qing flicked his sleeves, and the three of them retreated immediately, and acted separately according to their respective tasks.

As soon as the three of them left, Jiujiu returned to the pear garden, handed Chu Qing a waist card, and told Liu Hezhi's words: "Miss, Liu He said that he didn't know about the arrest of the master, but was sent by the imperial envoy. An order issued directly. He also believes in his heart that the master is innocent, but he can't be too disobedient to the imperial envoy, so he can only give you this waist card, and visit the master in the prison in disguise at night."

Chu Qing sneered, and took the badge: "This old fox is very shrewd. He sits beside him and doesn't help anyone. It's just a badge, do you still want me to remember his love?"

"Miss, we..." Jiu Jiu looked at Chu Qing hesitantly.

Chu Qing took the waist badge and ordered coldly: "Get ready, we will visit the prison tonight."

After a few minutes, two black figures came out from the side door of the Chu residence, their whole bodies were wrapped in pitch-black cloaks, and they could not be seen clearly.It was Chu Qing and Jiujiu who were going to visit Chu Zhengyang in the prison.

The things brought for Chu Zhengyang were put in a three-layer lacquer box by Jiujiu. The two looked at each other and left quietly.

This time, instead of taking a car, they walked on foot.

Naturally, Chu Qing, who has already achieved some success in Zhanyi Phantom, will not fail to keep up with the wine and wine that he practiced martial arts since childhood.

After a stick of incense, the two had arrived near the prison.

The wide brim of the hat covered the entire appearance of Chu Qing and Jiu Jiu, and they could only be vaguely judged to be women from their figures.

"Who is approaching?" As soon as he appeared in the light and shadow, there was a scolding from the cell door.

Chu Qing didn't say a word, but just handed out the token Liu He gave her.The jailer saw it, and immediately understood who it was.His attitude changed immediately, and he bowed and said softly, "You're here? Please hurry up. Chu Yuanwai has not been wronged."

As he spoke, he pulled down the chain and opened the cell door to allow the two of them to enter.

"It's time to work." Chu Qing said softly.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jiujiu took out the little kit that he had already prepared, and handed it to the jailer.

"Don't dare!" The jailer hurriedly waved his hands flattered.

Jiujiu stuffed the kit into his arms, and said with a smile: "My lady gave it to you, just take it. Our master has to trouble our elder brother to take care of it."

"This is natural, this is natural. Then I would like to thank Miss and this girl." The jailer put the kit in his arms with a smile on his face, and picked up a lantern to lead the way for Chu and Qing: "Miss, Miss, this way please No one will come to round the house at this time, you can speak slowly if you have something to say, and the villain will watch for you."

It was the first time for Chu Qing to visit the prison in Anning City.In her previous life, she was maliciously framed by a competitor and entered a prison in country M, but was released within a day.This life allowed her to see clearly what this ancient prison looked like.

In the prison cell, the road is rough, there are sewage deposits in the depressions, there are waves of stench, and the light is dim. If there is no lantern in the hands of the jailer, it may be difficult to find a place to step down.In the cells on both sides, many prisoners had already fallen asleep, but the smell on their bodies did not stop because of their falling asleep.

Jiu Jiu covered his mouth and nose with some discomfort, raised his eyes to look at Chu Qing, but saw that her expression was calm, showing no displeasure or unbearable emotions, at the moment, he was taken aback, put down his hands, and forced himself to adapt.

The jailer stopped and said to Chu Qing, "Mr. Chu is in the cell on the left in front."

There was a turn on the left that made the scene invisible, but the cells on the right were made clear by the light of the jailer's lantern.

"Who is that, and what did he do?" Chu Qing looked at the clean and tidy man in white clothes sitting cross-legged in the cell on the right with his back facing the cell door, and asked aloud.

To be able to be in such an environment, so and so, must not be an ordinary person.

The jailer looked over, stunned for a moment, and said, "Oh, that's our Lord Liu's former staff, Mr. Mu Bai. It's a pity that he angered the Lord with his words a few days ago, so he was punished here." After finishing speaking, he seemed to be joking again. Said: "I don't know if Lord Liu forgot to lock this master up. In short, no one cares about it."

Chu Qing smiled and said to Jiujiu: "Take out some of the food in the box and send it to Mr. Mu Bai."

Since Jiu Jiu would not disobey Chu Qing's orders, he started to move right away.

The jailer collected Chu Qing's money and had Liu He's prior instructions, so he would not stop the two of them from moving.He just inserted the handle of the lantern into the deep hole in the wall, walked over again, unlocked the chain outside Chu Zhengyang's prison door, and retreated.

"A Li, you're here." Sitting on the edge of the wooden bed in the cell, Chu Zhengyang was not surprised to see Chu Qing, but rather relieved.

Chu Qing pushed open the wooden cell door, and Jiu Jiu followed in.

"Daddy seems to be in good spirits." Chu Qing said with a smile.

Chu Zhengyang didn't appear to be worried at all, and said with a smile: "Since it's here, let it be at ease."

Chu Qing smiled, and took out the food from the lacquer box together with Jiujiu, and took out a brocade cloak from the bottom, and a mosquito-proof sachet.

Jiujiu walked out of the cell with the divided food, passed the plate in through the gap between the wooden railings, and said: "Mr. Mu Bai, this is what my lady asked me to bring, please use it slowly."

"Thank you for me, Miss." Mu Bai was not polite, turned around, walked over to pick up the plate, combed his hair behind him, and started to eat.

This informal spirit made Jiujiu look a little more curiously before returning to Chu Zhengyang's side.

There is only a narrow corridor between these two cells, Mu Bai's words can be heard clearly without wine.At this moment, Chu Zhengyang said: "Mr. Mu Bai was imprisoned because he advised Mr. Liu to stand up and quell the chaos during the riots."
