Chapter 158: Kneel down and talk to me
The carriage didn't stop until it reached a desolate suburb.
The leader pulled Qingyu off the carriage.
"What do you want to do? Why are you arresting me?" Qingyu looked at the people in front of her with fear on her face.
"Stop pretending. Aren't you the one sent by Ji Chuhe to deceive Magistrate Gao? Today is the day you die! Don't worry, my knife is very sharp and will save you a lot of pain!"
The man raised the knife in his hand and slashed towards Qingyu's neck!
"Swoosh!" A sharp arrow shot out and directly pierced the man's wrist.
"Ah! My hand!" The knife fell, and the man covered his hand and took a few steps back. He almost fainted from the pain.
County Magistrate Gao and his men rode towards this side at high speed on horseback.
As soon as he got off the horse, he ran towards Qingyu, put his hand on Qingyu's shoulders and looked her up and down.
He couldn't imagine what would happen if he came a little later!
Qingyu was still in shock, tears suddenly fell from her eyes, her legs went weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
County Magistrate Gao held her arm and lifted her up. Seeing her like this, he felt heartbroken.
As soon as Qingyu had the strength to stand firm, she pushed County Magistrate Gao away with disgust.
"Don't be afraid. As long as I am here, I won't let anyone hurt you." After saying this, County Magistrate Gao turned around and looked at these people.
When these people saw County Magistrate Gao, they knelt down involuntarily.
After all, they were all people who came out of the Gao Mansion. Although they were now under the command of Concubine Gao, County Magistrate Gao was still their master.
"Get out!" County Magistrate Gao shouted angrily.
These people fled away from here tumbling and crawling.
"Yumeng... No, Miss Qingyu, shall I take you back first?"
Qingyu did not move, but asked coldly: "Are they your people?"
"They were my daughter's subordinates. There were some misunderstandings. I promise that such a thing will not happen again." County Magistrate Gao coaxed in a flattering manner.
"They just said that someone sent me to bewitch you, so your daughter wants to kill me, right?" Qingyu continued to ask.
"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." County Magistrate Gao explained dryly.
"A misunderstanding is going to take my life, Magistrate Gao, your daughter is really powerful! She wanted to send someone to kill me! My head was almost chopped off! Are you going to let this matter go?"
"She was wrong about this matter..."
"She was wrong, so let her kneel down in front of me and apologize to me! If she doesn't apologize, I will sue her in the government office. I don't care how powerful you are, I have nothing to lose anyway!" Qingyu said, and walked away.
"Miss Qingyu, Qingyu!" County Magistrate Gao immediately chased after her, "I know you are very angry, I will definitely give you an explanation! Come back with me first, and don't go to the theater to sing anymore."
"Is Magistrate Gao afraid that I will sue your daughter, so he wants to put me under house arrest?"
"No, I want you to stay with me. How much money can you make in the theater? I will pay you ten times the price. If you want to sing, you can sing for me in the mansion. It's like I have reserved the whole theater. Is that okay?"
"Please ask County Magistrate Gao to settle today's matter first, and we can discuss the rest slowly later!"
……
When Concubine Gao heard the news, she immediately stood up from her chair.
"Useless! A bunch of useless people who can't even kill a weak woman!"
"Concubine, someone has come from Gao's residence and asked you to come over immediately."
Without saying a word, Concubine Gao immediately ordered someone to prepare a carriage and go to Gao's mansion.
County Magistrate Gao accompanied Qingyu and tried his best to please her.
However, Qingyu never even looked at him.
When Concubine Gao arrived, she saw how worthless her father looked, and she was so angry that she almost died!
"Father!" she called out.
"You are finally here! What did I tell you? You actually dared to have someone kidnap Jingyu behind my back and wanted to kill her!" County Magistrate Gao started to question him.
"Father, why are you so stubborn? You even brought her into the house!" Concubine Gao has not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.
County Magistrate Gao raised his hand and slapped Concubine Gao!
Concubine Gao was stunned and looked at County Magistrate Gao in disbelief.
"Kneel down!" County Magistrate Gao shouted angrily.
Concubine Gao knelt down.
"Apologize to Miss Qingyu!"
Concubine Gao stood up immediately!
It turned out that he wanted her to kneel down and apologize to this actor! If she knew what her father meant, she would never kneel!
Qingyu watched the scene coldly.
The hatred in my heart is overwhelming.
She has been arranged to get married and should have a bright future.
But, all of it was ruined by Concubine Gao and her son!
They were just putting on a show for their own selfish interests, and they didn't hesitate to let an innocent person suffer such great harm!
Although Zhou Dahu is dead, she still can't forget the assault!
Now, the real enemy is right in front of her. How can she not hate him? She wants to skin Concubine Gao alive!
"County Magistrate Gao, your daughter asked her men to kill people using such cruel means, but she refused to even kneel down. It seems that she has no sincerity in apologizing." After Qingyu finished speaking, she stood up and walked out.
County Magistrate Gao immediately stopped her and said, "Miss Qingyu, please wait a moment."
After saying that, County Magistrate Gao turned around and shouted to Concubine Gao, "Kneel down! Otherwise, don't blame me for not caring about the father-daughter relationship!"
"Father!" Concubine Gao was furious. "I won't kneel!"
"Okay, if you don't kneel, today, we will sever our father-daughter relationship. From now on, we will go our separate ways and have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
Concubine Gao's eyes were filled with shock, and it took her a while to come back to her senses.
"Father, for an actor, you don't even want your own daughter?"
"I warned you not to touch her, but you didn't listen. Kneel down and apologize, and this matter will be over."
"Okay, I'll kneel!" Concubine Gao endured it.
Her father's attitude towards Qingyu was much more serious than she had imagined!
There is no good result from a head-on confrontation.
She could only give in first.
Concubine Gao turned her head and looked at Qingyu.
If looks could kill, Qingyu would be dead!
He suppressed the humiliation in his heart and slowly knelt down.
As soon as her knees touched the ground, she stood up.
"Did I ask you to get up?" Qingyu asked coldly.
Concubine Gao almost bit her gums and knelt down again.
"You almost killed me. There must be a reason. Who told me to seduce your father?"
"You are still pretending! Didn't Ji Chuhe send you here?" Concubine Gao asked angrily.
"Ji Chuhe? The Crown Prince's wife?" Qingyu looked surprised.
Concubine Gao was so angry that her lungs were about to explode!
"How could I have known a woman as beautiful as the Crown Prince's wife? As for your suggestion of seducing County Magistrate Gao, I would like to ask for your help."
Concubine Gao stood up again.
"Kneel down!" Qingyu spat out two words in a cold voice.
Concubine Gao stole a glance at County Magistrate Gao, only to see him glare at her. She could only kneel down again.
"Now, you are only fit to talk to me on your knees."
