It was late.
Qiao Nian woke up groggily on the ground, looking at the candles on the walls that were about to burn out, thinking that it should be late.
But she didn't know how long it had been.
She only knew that Ming Wang whipped her back again and again, and finally stopped when Ming Wang was completely exhausted.
She could even remember Ming Wang's wanton and happy laughter when he left...
Just like the evil ghosts in the underworld, laughing wildly after being extremely cruel.
Her back was burning with pain.
She didn't dare to move.
The blood stuck to her clothes, and as long as she moved a little, the pulling and friction would make her feel heartbroken.
It hurts...
It really hurts!
It hurts much more than the nanny in the laundry department!
But his technique was very precise, and her hands and cheeks were not stained with any injuries.
He even ordered her to take off her coat before whipping her.
Fortunately, she took off her coat.
Otherwise, if she returned home with injuries like this, her grandmother would definitely know.
Thinking of this, Qiao Nian moved her fingers slightly, and then stood up despite the pain of thousands of tears on her back.
She couldn't stay here any longer. It was getting late, and she should go back.
Otherwise, her grandmother would be worried if she knew she was late!
But I don't know if she heard the movement in the house.
The door was opened, and the previous driver was standing outside.
Seeing Qiao Nian standing with blood all over her body, the driver showed a trace of fear on his face, and then hurriedly lowered his head and said, "The prince ordered me to take Miss Qiao back to the mansion."
Qiao Nian glanced at the driver lightly, said nothing, just staggered to the side, picked up her coat, and put it on with difficulty.
She tried to straighten her back, fearing that the blood on her back would stain her coat.
After finally buttoning the last button, she raised her foot and walked out.
The driver followed from a distance, as if he was worried that Qiao Nian would run into him when she fell down.
Unexpectedly, although Qiao Nian's feet were weak and she stumbled all the way, she still walked to the carriage smoothly.
Just when Qiao Nian was about to get on the carriage, he couldn't help but look back at the driver and whispered, "How many people have come to this mansion, including me?"
Qiao Nian's throat was a little dry after being abused, and his voice was extremely hoarse at this moment.
He could even hear a bit of weakness.
But such a weak and hoarse voice revealed a heart-shaking pressure.
So much so that the driver spoke truthfully after a brief shock, "Auntie, the girl happens to be the fifteenth."
Fifteen?
Tsk, it's really not an auspicious number.
She was sent to the laundry bureau after living in the Marquis' Mansion for fifteen years.
She thought about it and asked again, "Did those girls get out before?"
She actually wanted to ask if anyone got out alive.
But the driver didn't dare to answer because he was afraid that he asked too directly.
Even at this moment, the driver lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at Qiao Nian.
But he shook his head gently.
Qiao Nian understood in her heart, and then she climbed onto the carriage with all her strength.
It was indeed late outside.
The sun had risen, and when the carriage stopped outside the Marquis's Mansion, the sky was a little dark.
As soon as Qiao Nian got off the carriage, Lin Ye's sarcasm came from behind, "I thought who would come to the Marquis's Mansion so late, but I didn't expect it to be Miss Qiao!"
Qiao Nian's eyebrows twisted slightly.
She didn't have the energy to entangle with him today.
The wound on her back hurt too much, she wanted to go back to Fanghe Garden and see Ningshuang...
So, she pretended not to hear it and walked into the mansion.
Unexpectedly, Lin Ye rushed up and grabbed Qiao Nian's arm, "This young marquis is talking to you, what's your attitude!"
Qiao Nian was almost fainted by the strong alcohol, but fortunately the piercing pain in her back kept her awake.
Lin Yuan chased after Lin Ye and comforted him softly, "Brother, don't be angry. My sister came back late because she went out to play with King Ming today. Even for King Ming's face, don't embarrass my sister."
"King Ming's face?" Lin Ye sneered, "Yes, I should give King Ming some face. Look, how good he is to you, and he even took you to the lake! If I were to say, people like you should be taken directly to the west of the city!"
Qiao Nian's originally emotionless face was instantly stained with a bit of shock because of Lin Ye's words.
"You, know about the west of the city?" She finally spoke, but the hoarseness in her throat made Lin Ye stunned, and even sobered up a bit.
He stared at Qiao Nian, his eyes showing some scrutiny, and finally his eyes fell on Qiao Nian's earlobe.
The blood had dried, but it was still obvious that she was injured.
No wonder he had faintly smelled a bloody smell since just now.
But, with just this little injury, there was a bloody smell?
Lin Ye was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Nian suddenly asked, "Do you know about the west of the city!"
Her emotions became so excited that the wound on her back was involved, and her entire back seemed to be sprinkled with salt, and she was so painful that a layer of cold sweat instantly appeared on her forehead.
Lin Ye was stunned at first, and then pushed Qiao Nian fiercely, "How dare you yell at me!"
Qiao Nian was already holding on. If she wasn't afraid that her grandmother would know and worry, she would probably have fainted in the carriage.
At this moment, she was pushed by Lin Ye like this, and she fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.
He only heard Lin Ye's roar coming from behind, "What if I know, so what if I don't know? I told you a long time ago that King Ming is not a good thing. It's you who insists on climbing up, thinking that you have found support. At the back of the mountain? Ha! I tell you, it is a fire pit! You will be burned to pieces!"
Qiao Nian's back was really so painful that it was almost numb.
But he didn't know whether it was because he was numb from the pain, or whether the pain in his heart had taken over, making the pain on his back less obvious.
She still couldn't get up, and she didn't even have the strength to look at Lin Ye. She just asked stubbornly, "So, do you know about Chengxi?"
Seeing her in such a miserable state, Lin Ye felt that it was difficult to breathe for a moment, but this feeling made him more and more depressed.
But suddenly I realized that I seemed a little afraid to tell the answer.
But, what is there to be afraid of?
What is he afraid of in front of Qiao Nian?
At that moment, he shouted loudly, "Yes, I have known about Chengxi for a long time. I have known for a long time that Prince Ming is not only a cripple, but also a pervert! How about that!"
"Ye'er!"
An angry shout came from not far away, it was Lord Lin.
I saw him coming quickly and angrily, "Who allowed you to explain the king like this!" Even in the palace, you should not say such disrespectful words!
But Lin Ye drank wine today and was angry again. He was very resistant to Lin Houye's angry rebuke, so he immediately went back and said, "This is no longer a secret, why can't you say it!"
Isn’t it a secret?
Qiao Nian heard the implication and slowly raised her head to look at Mr. Lin, who was already standing not far in front of her. "So, you all know?"
