The Palace Prison Cell (2)

The leader of the soldiers tumbled backward. He fell on his bottom and stared up at Xiong Jingfei. It wasn't because she gave him a powerful hit to send him flying, but because it bruised his ego that a woman laid her hand on him. 

The soldiers standing nearby had a momentary shock before helping him stand up. 

"Why are you idiots still standing around here!? Arrest them! Arrest them all!" Their leader screeched and was pointing his fingers at the kneeling servants. He didn't dare pick another fight with Xiong Jingfei. "Hurry up! We don't have all night!"

"We didn't do anything!" 

"We don't know anything!"

"Please spare us!"

"Eldest Miss, help us!"

"Stop!" Xiong Jingfei took a step forward, and it made the soldiers take a step back. It halted their activity of dragging her people like animals out the front door.
