Chapter 266 - Why 1
Xiao Qingqian's back tensed up and he turned to look at Wei Qing.
Looking at her teary eyes, Xiao Qingqian felt a lump in his throat. She raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face with her finger.
"This is nothing."
Wei Qing glared at him angrily, "Shut up!"
Seeing him being injured so many times for her, Wei Qing was not unmoved!
Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows slightly and did not say a word.
When the magistrate heard this, he turned his head to look at Grand Master, who poked the magistrate.
"My prince, my princess, can we now interrogate the criminals?" the magistrate asked cautiously.
In the main hall of the county magistrate court, there was a solemn atmosphere. All of the bailiffs were holding their killing sticks expressionlessly.
Ladies' Dress Bighead was pushed into the main hall, the hand that had its tendons cut off was limp. When his gaze landed on Wei Qing's upturned face, he frowned.
"You really aren't a beauty!"
The voice was dark with a hint of anger from being duped.
Wei Qing raised her eyebrows and said, "I told you already, if you don't believe me, who can you blame?"
"You …"
"In this king's eyes, This King's consort is a priceless treasure. How can you allow yourself to spout nonsense here?" Xiao Qingqian squinted his eyes dangerously.
"Kneel!" The County Magistrate slapped the table, but Ladies' Dress Bighead refused to kneel no matter what. The bailiff's gaze fiercely pressed him down to the ground.
"Who are you kneeling on?" The magistrate shouted.
Ladies' Dress Bighead only raised her eyes and remained silent.
"Who exactly is inside the hall?"
Helpless, no matter how much the County Magistrate shouted, the Ladies' Dress Bighead kept his mouth shut and did not say a word.
The magistrate looked at Grand Master anxiously, asking for help. No matter how smart the Grand Master was, he still couldn't pry open this person's mouth.
Just when the two of them were panicking, Wei Qing slowly spoke out, "You hate beautiful women, could it be that you have been abandoned by beautiful women?"
These words were so light that it touched the strings of Ladies' Dress Bighead.
He frowned at her. "How do you know?"
Every extra word that Wei Qing spoke caused Ladies' Dress Bighead's expression to darken.
Wei Qing continued to speak, "Let me guess, you are a poor brat, who fell in love with a rich girl. This rich girl is very beautiful, and once swore an alliance with you, but in the end, you still married someone else …"
When Wei Qing said till here, Ladies' Dress Bighead's face suddenly changed, as though his entire body was stabbed with a painful foot, his breathing became extremely disordered.
Wei Qing was also only probing for a bit, she didn't think that she would really be able to guess the reason for this matter.
"So, you don't believe in any beautiful women anymore. If this goes on, you will want to kill all of them!"
When the word "kill" was uttered, everyone felt as if the pressure in the county courthouse had dropped to the extreme. Breathing heavily was a luxury.
Ladies' Dress Bighead suddenly laughed out loud. His laughter was not as sharp as the one he heard back in the abandoned house, it was very creepy. It was filled with a sense of masculinity.
Wei Qing did not continue, and only waited for his emotions to calm down before speaking.
Xiao Qingqian frowned as he sized Wei Qing up. In the past, when Wei Qing saw him, his eyes would definitely pop out, since when did he become so wise and farsighted?
Sensing Xiao Qingqian's gaze, Wei Qing turned her head. When their eyes met, she unhappily rolled her eyes at him.
Xiao Qingqian smirked and grabbed her hand at an angle that no one could see.
Annoyed, she tried to struggle. He hissed and grabbed her injured shoulder.
Wei Qing's breathing stagnated, and a few more traces of worry appeared in his eyes. After some thought, she let him hold her hand.
Xiao Qingqian raised his brows, and pushed one finger after another into the space between her fingers, tightly intertwining with her ten fingers.
Wei Qing glared at him, her eyes telling him not to go overboard. But Xiao Qingqian completely ignored him.
The two of them exchanged glances like this. In the eyes of others, it was as if the two of them were very close to each other and had deep feelings for each other.
"I loved Xiao Rou so much and she had even sworn an alliance with me, so why did she become someone else's bride in the end? I hate, I hate all beautiful women. "So …"
Ladies' Dress Bighead suddenly stood up when he said that. Helpless, the killing stick in the bailiff's hand was not just an ordinary wooden stick.
"Bang! Bang!" Several powerful killing sticks landed on his back as he was once again forced to kneel on the ground.
"Don't try to stop him!" Wei Qing asked in time.
If they continued to suppress him like this, Ladies' Dress Bighead would probably be angered and would not continue to speak.
Although she had never trained in psychology before, she felt that after going through such a huge blow, he now had a split personality.
The bailiffs looked at the magistrate one by one, and the magistrate tapped the wood, "The Prince Chu is here, what are you all looking at me for?"
When Xiao Qingqian looked at his own face with the county magistrate's flattering gaze, he said with a solemn face: "Listen to the wangfei."
All of the constables hurriedly withdrew their killing sticks.
Ladies' Dress Bighead's breathing had become completely disordered and Wei Qing's heart was hanging high in the air, afraid that he would choose to keep quiet because of his anger.
He angrily glared at Xiao Qingqian, leaned slightly and said to Ladies' Dress Bighead: "Have you ever thought that the matter might not be as you think?"
"What's that like?"
Ladies' Dress Bighead roared. His eyes were red with anger and humiliation. Just looking at him was enough to make people feel nervous.
Because of her words, Ladies' Dress Bighead's eyes flickered unsteadily. Because of his hatred, he did not look for Xiao Rou again.
However, three months after Xiao Rou's wedding, she had someone deliver a letter to him.
Wei Qing's gaze was fixated on his face the entire time, not letting out a single trace of change in his emotions from the bottom of his eyes.
In a flash, Ladies' Dress Bighead stood up excitedly. Just as he was about to rush out, he was stopped by a bailiff.
He angrily glared at the constables blocking him. Then, he lifted his foot and kicked them to the ground.
Wei Qing looked at Xiao Qingqian, "Quickly chase them."
"What do you think he remembered?" Xiao Qingqian asked calmly.
"I still don't know. If you don't chase after him, aren't you afraid of him running away?" Wei Qing asked urgently.
