The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented
Chapter 279 At worst, I'll repay you with my body.
Xu Qin immediately recognized it.
That voice belongs to... that soldier.
"Has it finally happened?"
The joy on her face instantly became unconcealable. She had been sulking, but now she stood up and even deliberately struck the best pose, ready to welcome the horse owner she imagined.
What kind of person would he be?
Handsome and dashing, with a cold and aloof expression?
Or is it domineering and surging, with a broad and generous chest?
Unlike Xu Qin's optimism, the restaurant owner was somewhat bewildered and even on the verge of collapse.
Just as the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance was pressuring them to open for business, military officers came knocking on their door.
Moreover, judging from their appearance, these soldiers are not local to Huai'an City; they are most likely imperial troops who have just entered the city.
They've come with ill intentions!
The restaurant owner quickly smiled apologetically: "Sir, we only have one table of customers here. I don't know if the person you're looking for is here."
"Brothers, search for him!"
Upon hearing this, Bangchui stopped talking and led his troops upstairs in a large group. Soon they saw the group from the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance.
Especially... Xu Qin.
She stood there proudly, like a smug little rooster, looking like a princess waiting for her guards to come and fetch her.
"That's her!"
With a pointed finger, the soldiers rushed forward and, before Xu Qin could react, pinned her arms down.
When soldiers strike, there is no such thing as leniency, especially towards someone like Xu Qin who has committed a grave offense; they show absolutely no mercy to him.
Then, a "crack" was heard, and the fragile Xu Qin immediately let out a pig-like scream.
"what!"
The sound was penetrating and reverberated through the roof tiles.
This completely stunned Xu Qin.
For the first time, an expression of disbelief appeared on her face. Being dragged along like a dead dog, she finally felt a sliver of fear within herself.
But along with fear came even more...
anger!
Anger from the bottom of my heart!
"What are you soldiers doing?"
Do you know who I am?
Do you even know what I've done?
"You're being so rude! Does the horse owner know? He won't let you get away with this."
Everyone in the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance stood up, their faces filled with disbelief.
This is a gathering of their Love Mutual Aid Alliance; even the city lord of Huai'an City has to give them some face.
Now there are actually soldiers coming to arrest people?
Are you trying to defy the heavens?!
Led by Young Master Qi, several people stood up, about to ask questions or even stop him!
However, before he could even open his mouth, the leading soldier suddenly slapped him across the face.
"Snapped!"
It made a crisp sound!
The slap was extremely loud!
A slap landed on Xu Qin's face.
Xu Qin's face swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Immediately, the sound of the mallet, as cold as snow, rang out.
"I know you all too well. You deliberately poisoned the general's prized horse. It's only because the general wasn't there that you weren't killed on the spot, you son of a bitch, that you got lucky. Now..."
"Come with me to jail."
"Wait for the general to return and handle this!"
Xu Qin immediately objected: "I'll pay for the horse..."
"Can you afford to pay for it? Even if you were sold, it wouldn't be worth one ten-thousandth of that BMW."
"At worst..." Xu Qin had already thought of something, and now that these topics were being discussed, she felt much more at ease and said firmly, "At worst, I'll repay you with my body."
"It's just a horse, how could it be more valuable than me!"
"Snapped!"
Another slap landed, and after the stick made Xu Qin's left and right cheeks symmetrical, he sneered, "You sure know how to dream!"
"Go to jail!"
He stopped wasting words and ordered his brothers to work together to drag away Xu Qin, who was as lively and energetic as a pig during the Lunar New Year.
It came on strong and left with a vengeance.
The people in the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance were also frightened, and no one dared to stop them.
Most importantly, these people could tell.
Xu Qin was arrested because he had deliberately injured the general's warhorse.
In the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance, some people come from good families. For example, Young Master Qi's family runs a book printing and sales business, and he is well aware of the value of warhorses.
The value of a warhorse is beyond imagination, and it is even more terrifying when it is a general's warhorse.
Intentionally damaging a warhorse would be a capital offense, punishable by beheading, even in Yunjing.
Therefore, everyone watched as Xu Qin was dragged away, but no one was convinced of her guilt.
"Xu Qin is guilty of injuring the warhorse, but we are holding a gathering of the Love Mutual Aid Alliance. How dare you come here to arrest people? Do the officials have a death wish?"
"Yes, that's so rude. Let's find a way to tell the Tongxin Alliance and get them to step in."
"I feel there must be more to the story. Sister Xu Qin must have done this for love, and in our culture, love is innocent."
"Brothers and sisters, why don't we all go through our connections and find out the truth? If it's because of love, we need to get the government to release him."
"Just releasing them isn't enough; they need to apologize!"
……
The members of the Huai'an City Love Mutual Aid Alliance quickly came up with a plan and left Wangchun Tower in a swarm, just like they had swarmed in earlier. They disappeared without leaving a single coin and went off to inquire about various things.
The restaurant owner was quite helpless, but he could only endure it and pray that the imperial army that came this time would properly deal with these folk organizations that were affiliated with the Tongxin Alliance.
First, we need to teach that ringleader, Xu Qin, a lesson.
It was obvious that the restaurant owner's wish could be fulfilled, because no matter how dissatisfied or irritable Xu Qin was, he was dragged into the prison like a dead pig.
With a clang, the iron railing closed and the chains were fastened. In the blink of an eye, Xu Qin went from being an employee at Xiemapu to a prisoner in the jail.
She was still unwilling to give up and still held strong expectations.
"How dare you treat me like this? Does the horse owner know about this? Go tell him, I want to see him."
"At most, he'll make me his personal maid to pay off his debts. He absolutely cannot be so rude and disrespectful to me. You all hurry up and go!"
"Snapped!"
The whip cracked.
In this dark and gloomy prison, the soldiers, including Bangchui, behaved even more ruthlessly than outside. This whip was vicious, striking Xu Qin's hand and leaving a red welt.
Xu Qin winced in pain and immediately fell silent.
"Shut the hell up, just you wait. When General Zhang Shi comes back, you'll be sorry."
Bangchui snorted coldly and turned to leave, but then he saw a man dressed in a specific uniform with a curved sword at his waist leaning against the wall. It was Xie Changfeng, the current deputy demon slayer of the Demon Suppression Division.
Xie Changfeng said to Bangchui, "Brother Bangchui, if General Zhang Shi has any issues that are inconvenient for him to handle after he returns, he can inform our Demon Suppression Division."
"These are things that our Demon Suppression Division excels at."
"I guarantee that this Miss Xu Qin will truly repent and wholeheartedly turn to good."
Bangchui glanced at Xie Changfeng and said, "We still need General Zhang Shi to come back and handle this. Everything depends on General Zhang Shi's decision."
"I wonder how far General Zhang Shi has gone in his pursuit of Xu Shang?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than one of his brothers came running back excitedly: "Hey, General Zhang Shi is back!"
"Oh?" Bangchui's eyes lit up. "Let's go find General Zhang Shi quickly."
