Chapter 145 - Luo Qianqian is Missing
n

n
nLuo Qianqian swore she had fought the guards desperately but to no avail.
nShe was still learning from Master Lingtian, so she couldn’t sweep away the enemies like she had expected.
nThe guards grabbed Luo Qianqian and sent her to the Maximum Security Prison.
n
n
nLuo Qianqian couldn’t help but get emotional, ‘I must be the most pathetic Female Lead who has transmigrated! I just sent a villain to the prison and I myself turn out to be the next one who is going to prison!’
nBut luckily, our Female Lead Luo Qianqian was good at comforting herself, ‘Well, I better take things as they come, the empress dared not to kill me, then there’s nothing to worry about. Plus, Murong Yun will notice I am missing and I’m sure he will find me soon.’
nAnd in retrospect, she kept blaming herself for being so reckless and got caught by the empress.
nLuo Qianqian was surprised to find Princess Ninth was in the adjacent cell.
n
n
nPrincess Ninth was surprised to see Luo Qianqian in the beginning then she laughed hysterically, she stammered in spite of her swollen face, “Hahaha, Luo Qianqian! This serves you well! You are caught as well! If I’m going down, you are going down with me!”
nSilence.
n“I am talking to you! Quit ignoring me! Who sent you here? The empress! I knew it, the empress is avenging me!”
nSilence.
n
n
n“Talk to me! Is it the empress?”
nLuo Qianqian ignored Princess Ninth, she felt sorry for the girl, she didn’t have the heart to tell the girl the empress didn’t care for her at all. Plus, she couldn’t be bothered to get involved, so she kept silent.
nIt was getting dark, soon the prison guards started to distribute dinner, which was a bowl of sour porridge and a steamed bun as hard as a rock.
nThere were many prisoners who were kept in this special prison, the guards treated them equally without regardless of their status.
n“Dinner time!” the guards started to distribute food and the detainees devoured ravenously like the food were delicacies.
nUnfortunately, three lean meals were the only food available in prison, plus there were some detainees would be deprived off three meals if they had offended the guards, that was why they were all devouring ravenously.
n
n
nPrincess Ninth had some pastry before Luo Qianqian locked her up, so she wasn’t starving.
n“Are those edible?” Princess Ninth snorted on seeing the food. Then she sat on the haystack in her cell, staring at Luo Qianqian.
nLuo Qianqian was starving, she didn’t eat anything the whole day, but she didn’t have appetite seeing the food.
nHer cell was close to the guards’ table, she could see the guards were having a feast, there was even wine.
nLuo Qianqian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, she was drooling… …
nShe withdrew a wallet from her sleeve, it was Murong Yun who had put that wallet in her sleeve for emergencies.
n‘Haha, an emergency like this one.’
nLuo Qianqian withdrew a silver ingot from the wallet, “Hey, brother!” Luo Qianqian shouted.
n
n
nThe guards had noticed her as soon as she set foot on the prison, now a guard trotted towards her, “What can I do for you, young lady?”
nLuo Qianqian stuffed the silver ingot into the guard’s hand, “Brother, can I join you guys for dinner, please?”
nThe guard fiddled with the big silver ingot and beamed, “Sure, of course you can!”
nPrincess Ninth shouted, “Wait! I want to join you guys too!”
nThe guard didn’t spare a look at Princess Ninth, he walked towards Luo Qianqian’s cell and unlocked her door. Luo Qianqian walked out, the guard offered her a stool by one side of the table. Luo Qianqian and the guard sat by one side of the table, the other two guards were seated opposite.
nPrincess Ninth kept yelling, “I’m Princess Ninth! I’m talking to you, don’t play dumb with me, unlock me now! I’m hungry!”
nPrincess Ninth had already rubbed the guards the wrong way by throwing a big tantrum when she was first locked up, the guards retorted, “Quiet! Who cares you are a princess or imperial concubine! You are a prisoner once you are here! I just have distributed you some food! Quit making a scene now!”
nLuo Qianqian burst into laughter on hearing the harsh remarks, she was glad she was this beautiful now, the guards seemed to like her and her personality.
nLuo Qianqian dived in and she even had a cup of wine, she dared not to drink a lot for she didn’t want to so anything stupid under the influence of alcohol.
n“Did you enjoy the food?” the guards asked nicely, they treated Luo Qianqian like a friend instead of a prisoner, they hadn’t even asked her how she ended up in jail.
n‘Courtesy demands reciprocity’, thought Luo Qianqian, she was nice to whoever was nice to her, “Yes, thank you so much.”
n“Is there anything else we can do for you?” asked a guard.
n‘It looks like they are in no rush to lock me up, hmm, I’m sure Murong Yun will notice I’m missing, it’s just a matter of time before he breaks in and saves me. Why not have some fun while waiting then.’
n
n
n“Do you guys have dices?”
nThe three guards exchanged a look, “Yes, but why?”
nA bright smile crossed Luo Qianqian’s face, “Do you guys have money on you?”
nThey exchanged one more look with confusion, “Yes we do.”
n“Sounds good, let’s play dices, whoever loses need s to drink. Come on, come on, be a man and play with me!”
n“Great! We will play with you!”
nLuo Qianqian and the guards started to roll the dice.
nOn the other hand, Princess Eleventh had woken up, and Murong Yun indeed had noticed Luo Qianqian was missing.
nLvluo was worried sick, she dared not to look at Murong Xue in the eye, “I’m so sorry, this is all my fault, I should have followed Her Highness and kept an eye on her! I’ve looked everywhere, but I couldn’t find Her Highness.”
nMurong Xue just woke up, she got all riled up on hearing that, “What? My sister-in-law is missing?”
nLvluo knew it wasn’t time to defend herself, she just wiped her eyes and said, “I’m so sorry, this is all my fault.”
nMurong Yun, Su Liancheng and Lin Zimo are all lost in thought.
nNo way would Luo Qianqian just disappear, she asked Lvluo to deal with Princess Ninth and she left for somewhere else, she didn’t come back to see us. Obviously she was occupied by something else, what could that be?
