Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 420
Chapter 420 Plead Guilty
The medicine written on it was saffron!
Although saffron could activate blood, Su Wanwan was now pregnant! Wasn’t it the child in his belly that was suffering from abdominal pain after drinking it?
Seeing that Su Wanwan lowered her eyes and did not say anything, Huan’er placed the prescription on Su Wanwan’s lap and said, “Princess, if you killed Huan’er, Huan’er would not buy you such a thing!”
“Not buying?” Su Wanwan raised her eyes and looked at her. There was no trace of a smile on her face. “If you don’t buy it, it’s fine. I can only buy it myself.”
Looks like Su Wanwan still wants to buy it! Do you have to drink saffron!
Huan’er suddenly thought of something and immediately retrieved the prescription from Su Wanwan’s embrace, saying, “Princess, Huan’er will buy it for you.”
“Yes.” Su Wanwan replied in a deep voice. She was relieved that Huan’er had rejected this matter, but now she felt even more bored.
About two hours later, the carriage arrived at a small town. The coachman was very observant. He stopped the carriage at the entrance of the inn. Su Wanwan got off the carriage and asked for a good room to stay with Huan’er. When she reached the room, Huan’er wanted to go out to buy medicine. Su Wanwan warned, “Go out and call me Miss. Don’t call me Princess again.”
“Yes, Miss.” Huan’er immediately went down. Su Wanwan sat in the room and stared at the person in the mirror. She suddenly realized that the woman’s face was yellow. Her eyes were filled with autumn coldness and winter coldness. She was like a desolate person who saw through the mortal world. She was lifeless.
She didn’t know when Huan’er would come back, but there was a bowl of medicine on the table. Su Wanwan took a sip and scooped up a spoon of dark brown medicine and put it on her lips.
Huan’er looked at Su Wanwan and said, “Miss, drink up quickly.”
Huan’er actually urged her to drink? Su Wanwan felt that there was something fishy about it, but she still drank it. She drank it in her mouth, and a familiar tonic smell left a fragrance between her lips and teeth. She didn’t expect it to be a tonic! Not saffron!
No wonder Huan’er urged her to drink! Because Huan’er never thought of giving her and Saffron! Su Wanwan finally understood why Huan’er agreed to buy medicine so straightforwardly. It turned out that she had quietly bought some tire mending medicine.
At this moment, Su Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief. She gently caressed the child in her abdomen. She couldn’t help but sigh with admiration at the child’s misfortune. She almost miscarried a few times, but now she was about to be killed by her biological mother!
Su Wanwan sighed, took out a few pieces of silver and handed them to Huan’er, saying, “Buy this soup every day from now on.”
Huan’er revealed a happy expression and immediately replied, “Yes.”
The night gradually darkened and the two slept in the same room.
No matter what, Su Wanwan could not sleep. She opened her eyes and looked at the gauze tent. Suddenly, she heard a noise coming from outside. The corridor outside also lit up, as if a group of people were walking around with lanterns in their hands.
The sounds of footsteps and voices outside gradually grew louder. Su Wanwan felt that those people were walking towards their houses. Su Wanwan was stunned. She thought that Qi Chengfeng’s people had come looking for them. A moment of joy flashed in her heart.
However, this happiness was only an instant. The quiet voice of the room suppressed the joy in Su Wanwan’s heart.
“My lord, this room is a room for two women who stayed in our inn at night. They are wearing coarse clothes but they are very generous. They are indeed the most suspicious people.”
A lantern was hanging high outside the room. The sound of footsteps stopped outside the room. A row of black shadows swayed outside the door. The black shadows swayed under the dim yellow light of the lantern. They were like fierce ghosts released from hell in the dark night. Su Wanwan picked them up in her heart.
“Boom!” Someone slapped the door and said, “Who’s inside? Open the door! We’re from the government!”
“…”
It was really their door! Su Wanwan did not say anything, but Huan’er was woken up. Hearing the sound, she immediately opened the door.
“What are you doing in the middle of the night?” When Huan’er said this, her hand suddenly turned cold and she immediately woke up. After the constable pushed open the door, she placed the cold iron lock on Huan’er’s wrist!
“Stop!” Su Wanwan finally spoke. A constable walked towards Su Wanwan and said unhappily, “Who are you? How dare a prisoner speak to me like this!”
Su Wanwan frowned. Rumors had it that Peach Blossom Stream was a very safe town and the people were in harmony. She chose to come here. Who would have thought that such a thing would happen on the first day!
In the absence of evidence, we can only be considered suspects, but the constable called them criminals even if he didn’t agree with them!
It was truly chilling!
The constable walked over to tie Su Wanwan’s hand. Su Wanwan immediately said, “Stop! Didn’t you hear?”
“You are so arrogant! Do you believe me if you offend me? I will immediately give you the result!” The constable smiled and picked up the cloth to hold Su Wanwan’s hand. However, before she touched it, she was blocked by a strange barrier. The constable immediately shouted, “You, what did you do?”
“I didn’t do anything.” Su Wanwan walked towards Huan’er. Everyone was shocked by this cold and mysterious aura. Without stopping her, Su Wanwan broke Huan’er’s iron chains with nothing in her hands!
Everyone was immediately shocked. They pointed at Su Wanwan and said, “She is so strong! She is the most suspicious! Perhaps … she was the one who killed her!”
“That’s right! What a vicious heart! The so-called generosity must be due to robbing the landlord of a hundred taels of silver!”
“…”
Su Wanwan listened for a long time and sneered, “Idiots only use conjecture and suspicion. If you are certain, bring me some evidence to investigate. If there is no evidence, please go out. We will go to sleep.”
“You!” “Looks like it’s her!” A constable angrily pointed at Su Wanwan.
“That’s right! We don’t need to say anything more, just capture her! If she doesn’t go to the yamen, we’ll just kill her on the spot and give Landlord Qian an explanation!”
“…”
How could such a troublemaker come from such a good place? Su Wanwan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. A trace of displeasure appeared in her apricot eyes. Su Wanwan felt a slight pain in her stomach. She did not want to forcefully chase these people away. She could only say, “Everyone, what kind of murder are you talking about? We do not know. The two of us are not murderers. We are just travelers passing through this place. You …”
“Sinners say that they are not sinners!” A constable retorted, and then he actually pulled Huan’er over and tied her up to threaten Su Wanwan to leave with them.
Su Wanwan could only admit it. She went to the yamen with them, and as soon as she got there, she was imprisoned. A man dressed in a constable’s uniform appeared and said, “No matter who the two of you are, you must admit your guilt tomorrow!”
Was this forcing them to become innocent? Suddenly, Su Wanwan felt that her body was very cold. She said coldly, “What if I don’t agree?”
