Chapter 6555
Ping An didn't know anything else, but she knew that the father and son of the Qiao family were very rich. She even suspected that the father and son had obtained some treasure, otherwise why would they just give her boxes of jewelry as a gift?
She felt particularly sorry for the jewelry now. It was inconvenient to take them with her when she left, so she left them all in Qiyun Mountain.
It's not that she wanted the jewelry, but if she had more than ten boxes of jewelry, she could feed more people.
Now the father and son of the Qiao family have become the monarchs of Qi State, and Qiyun Mountain is in the territory of Da Zhou. She was thinking that after she came back, she could suggest Meng Yi to conquer Qiyun Mountain.
It would be great to give the jewelry to the people at that time.
The three of them couldn't go to Qi State like they did in Da Zhou. The three of them disguised themselves and pretended to be merchants. For convenience, Ping An also changed into men's clothes. The three of them wore ordinary clothes and deliberately made their faces ugly, so that they looked just slightly better than ordinary people.
Although Meng Yi did not agree with them going to Qi State, he did not stop them. He just sent them off and watched until the carriage disappeared.
Seeing that he had been standing still, the adjutant said, "Prince, go back!"
"Yes." Meng Yi responded softly and turned away.
The adjutant looked at his own prince's lonely background, shook his head and went to do things.
Ping An and others had a smooth journey. When they arrived at a city in the central part of Qi State, the three planned to stay here for three days to understand the local customs and folkways.
The three found the largest inn in the city, and the servants went to arrange it. When the three were about to go in, they heard a sound of beating, scolding and crying not far away.
Ping An immediately stopped and looked over. Zhao Xiang and Meng Huo also looked over. They saw a little girl holding a thin child. The two were being beaten. The little girl didn't cry, but the child she was holding cried heartbreakingly.
Zhao Xiang was angry when he saw it, and immediately rushed up to save people, but before his foot kicked, the people who beat people were kicked to the ground.
Zhao Xiang, "???"
He only felt a gust of red wind passing by, and then a sword pointed at the neck of the person who had just hit him.
Ping An looked at the woman in red not far away. She had a simple ponytail, a red dress, a straight figure, an incredibly beautiful side face, and a cold and elegant temperament.
Zhao Xiang looked at the woman, his eyes were straight, he had never seen a woman with such a different temperament!
And, so beautiful!
The woman in red felt his sight, and her sharp eyes shot at him.
Zhao Xiang smiled awkwardly and lowered his head embarrassedly.
Ping An hurried over and said, "What's the matter? Are you trying to kidnap people?"
"Don't mind your own business! I bought this pair of sisters! If you mind your own business..."
Before the man finished speaking, the sword of the woman in red came closer to him again. The man shrank his neck in fear and dared not be arrogant anymore.
"You said you bought it, what evidence do you have?" Ping An looked at him coldly.
"Evidence... the evidence is here!" The man immediately took out a piece of paper and threw it out.
"Sir, it's not like that. We were kidnapped!" The older girl immediately looked at Ping An with a pleading look on her face.
"If you dare to lie, I will kill you!" The woman in red was about to kill.
Ping An quickly stopped her, "Sister, wait a minute. It's not worth dirtying your hands for such a person. Just send him to the authorities!"
