Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

Chapter 380: Anger, not decreasing but increasing

The queen's chest rose and fell with anger.

Lin Cheng obeyed the order and raised the whip in his hand.

There was hesitation and hidden worry in Qinghuan's eyes.

Wei An gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

Luo Xiaoran was thinking whether to endure it and wait and see if the Queen would call for a stop, or to just escape.

Are you kidding? Eighty lashes, she thinks eight lashes are too much!

"Snapped!"

Opportunity is fleeting.

The moment Luo Xiaoran hesitated, Lin Cheng's whip had already fallen, but was blocked by Wei An again.

Luo Xiaoran tied Wei An and her own right hands with loose noose. As long as they struggled downwards with force, they could easily break free from the restraints.

Seeing that Lin Cheng had locked onto Luo Xiaoran, Wei An no longer cared about anything else. He instinctively struggled to break free from the ropes and served as a meat shield for Luo Xiaoran at the critical moment.

Lin Cheng was a martial artist and had great strength. In addition, Eunuch Sun had intended to show mercy to Wei An, so the second whip Wei An endured was several times more painful than the first. He groaned immediately and his face lost color.

Seeing this, Luo Xiaoran became furious and immediately freed her right hand from the rope noose. Then she took out a dagger from her waist and quickly cut the rope that bound her left hand.

By the time the Queen and others reacted, Luo Xiaoran and Wei An had transformed from matchstick men into free men.

On Wei An’s back, a whip mark appeared again on his brand new clothes.

Where the clothes were torn, the bandage that had been used to bandage the first whip wound was also torn, and the two hideous wounds were bleeding at the same time, which made Luo Xiaoran's heart stagnate.

She leaned close to Wei An's ear and said angrily:

"Wei An, have you forgotten what I told you before?

I don't need you to block the knife for me! Block the sword! Take the blame! Take my death!

If I really get into a desperate situation, I won’t be able to escape because I don’t have any Qinggong skills!

If I die, I will have to rely on you to escape and let His Highness avenge me!"

Wei An pursed his blue lips and looked at Luo Xiaoran helplessly, like a child who had done something wrong and was being scolded.

Luo Xiaoran saw this in her heart and her eyes felt slightly hot. After all, Xiao Wei'an just wanted to protect her!

"Humph! You two have a deep bond as master and servant!"

Luo Xiaoran's actions immediately made the Queen realize that her "self-binding" just now was purely a show!

"You are indeed a country woman who is not worthy of being in a noble place. You dare to show off such a petty trick in front of me!"

"That's right!" Qing Huan quickly replied, "Even if you're not tied up with ropes, there are people inside and outside the prison. Do you still want to escape?"

"If the Queen doesn't want to kill us, why would we have to run away?"

Luo Xiaoran's voice quenched the ice.

The Queen was puzzled. "When did I say...I want to kill you?"

"I just let you take the whipping you deserved!"

"laugh!"

Luo Xiaoran did not hide the sarcasm on her face, "If a person doesn't die after eighty lashes, that would be rare!"

The queen stopped talking and glanced at Lin Cheng.

Lin Cheng had already swung a whip and had some understanding of it in his mind. After estimating it, he nodded to the queen.

The queen wanted to touch Luo Xiaoran, but she didn't want to kill her.

The eighty lashes were a complete misunderstanding caused entirely by the Queen's lack of common sense.

But the queen is the queen after all. As one of the most noble women in Daliang, she does not need to bow her head, apologize, or speak softly to anyone.

"Even if I want to kill you, you can't escape."

so?

Luo Xiaoran waited quietly for the Queen's next words.

She had already thought it through. If the Queen was really stupid enough to kill her, she would hold her hostage first and then break out of the Sky Prison with Wei An. At worst, she would become a wanted criminal in Daliang in the future!

Luo Xiaoran pretended to be cool and made harsh remarks, but her silence made the queen's aura seem to be reduced by three points for no reason.

The Queen's anger grew instead of diminishing.
