When Ye Qiqi woke up again, she found that she was packed in a sack, surrounded by darkness and could not see anything. Her hands were tied behind her back and a rag was stuffed in her mouth, probably to prevent her Yelling.
What's happening here.
After Ye Qiqi panicked for a while, she forced herself to calm down.
She should be in a carriage now. The carriage's wheels were traveling on the bumpy road. Her body seemed to be falling apart. She was probably bumped along the way.
I just don’t know who arrested her and why she and Liu Yunwei were arrested.
Ye Qiqi listened carefully for a while and found that the driver and her were the only two people on the carriage, and she didn't know where Liu Yunwei had gone.
But for now, it would be better for her to get away first.
Ye Qiqi took a deep breath, and then used her inner strength. The rope tied to her wrist was easily broken with a "chi" sound.
Moving her wrists that were red from the rope, Ye Qiqi removed the piece of rag stuffed in her mouth, and then placed her palms on the sack that contained her. With a little force, the sack was immediately filled with her internal force. Crushed.
Ye Qiqi looked up and saw that where she was, it couldn't even be considered a carriage. It could only be regarded as a broken flatbed truck at best, and the puller turned out to be an old cow.
There were some messy straws scattered on her body, and an old man wearing a straw hat was sitting on a bullock cart, driving forward with a whip in his hand.
Ye Qiqi blinked her eyes, moved, and quietly approached the old man driving the car. She took out the black black iron dagger from her sleeve robe, and gently pressed the cold and sharp dagger against the old man driving the car. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Don't move."
"Don't... don't kill me..." The old man driving the car was driving the car just fine, but suddenly there was a dagger on his neck, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move.
"I have something to ask you, and you give me an honest answer. If you don't answer obediently, I will kill you immediately." Ye Qiqi narrowed his eyes, looked at the back of the old man in front of him, and said in a fierce voice.
"Okay... Just ask..." The old man stiffened his neck and said in a trembling voice.
“What’s being transported in your car??”
"It's just some rice." The old man who drove the car replied to Ye Qiqi with a trembling voice: "I... I am the old man who delivers rice to the Fourth Prince's Mansion."
"Rice??" Ye Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then turned around and took a closer look. Sure enough, there were many sacks covered under the straw. The way they were stacked up, they did look like rice.
"Yes, it's just rice..." The old man didn't know what to say, so he could only imitate Ye Qiqi's words mechanically.
"Who asked you to send it??"
"That's the fourth prince..." The old man stiffened and replied without hesitation: "I, I have to send things to the fourth prince's house every day. Sometimes it's rice, sometimes it's fruits. Vegetables and stuff.”
"So now everything in this car is sent to the Fourth Prince's Mansion??" Ye Qiqi lowered his voice and asked again.
"Yes, yes." The old man nodded quickly.
“Besides rice, there’s nothing else in the car??”
