Chapter 814: Trapped
king at all: "Little one, your courage has grown. Now you even dare to threaten me, huh" He seemed to miss her frightened and timid look when they first met."You really think I'm afraid of you Let me...In an instant, the flames instantly ignited 'Xiao Yu Ge' inside the ice coffin. Strangely, this corpse seemed to burn especially well, catching fire immediately. By the time they came to their senses and rushed to extinguish it, 'Xiao Yu Ge' had already been burned beyond recognition!
This is the emperor's second move. They knew Windless Silence would definitely try to take Xiao Yuge's body away, so they tampered with the body long ago. They sprinkled phosphorus powder on her clothes, which would ignite when it touched fire. Of course, Fang Minrou was also one of their pawns.
“Daughter!” Gazing at his daughter, whose face was completely burned beyond recognition, Feng Wuji let out a roar of rage that echoed through the heavens. The mournful cry sounded like an old ape mourning the loss of its child – there is no sorrow in this world greater than a white-haired person sending off a black-haired one!
The Emperor, as if only just realizing what had happened, ordered people to arrest Fang Minrou, but Fang Minrou was already gone without a trace.
"Your Majesty, Lan Zhao, today I must take Ge'er home. Please understand the feelings of a father!" Feng Wuji suppressed the hatred in his heart, though he was seething inside.
"Since the prince has said so, if I were to refuse again, it would be my fault." At this time, the emperor also seemed to reluctantly agree. Looking at the unrecognizable faces before him, a hint of triumph flashed in his eyes. Burned like this, who could tell if they were real or fake
"Well then, your Majesty. I shall take my leave!" Though his teeth ached to grind together in frustration, on the surface, Feng Wuji still managed to force back his grief. Now wasn't the time for a public meltdown.
However, the moment he stepped out of Lan Zhao, that Lan Zhao was ready to receive his wrath of revenge. The former God of War prince had returned! This time, he would fight for his daughter!
The Emperor, of course, wouldn't stop them from leaving. After all, as long as Feng Wuji was in Lan Zhao for a day, he couldn't find peace for a day. If Feng Wuji were to be assassinated or injured here, or even die, it wouldn't be good for him at all. What if Ge'er's matter was discovered That would be even more troublesome. So, now that this plague god was leaving, he naturally welcomed it with open arms. After a few polite words, he waved goodbye.
"Father, are you really letting the Regent leave just like that" Qian Si Chen seemed to not understand her father's actions.
The emperor raised an eyebrow and narrowed his eyes: “Then what Who do you think could keep him You”
Qian Sichen was speechless after being scolded by him. To be honest, in terms of martial arts, he was truly no match for Feng Wuji.
With no one else around, the emperor instructed again, "If you have nothing to do, go visit her in the prison more often. If she sees reason and follows you, once you have children together, will you still be afraid she'll leave you again" The emperor thought his words were already clear enough, hoping his unlucky son would understand.
"I understand, Father." Qian Sichin wasn't a fool. He knew exactly what his father meant. He wasn't unaware of the situation; he just refused to believe it. He didn't want to hurt Ge'er. He truly loved her, which is why he couldn't bear to hurt her.
“Chen’er, before your little uncle returns, you only have this one chance!” The emperor could see that his son was kind-hearted, but he still couldn't help reminding him. Of course, this was also the reason why he had been enduring all kinds of pressure and had to keep his position as the crown prince. A ruler needs to be ruthless and decisive, but he must also be kind in order to treat the people of the world well.
"Ever since your third brother went to the border, there have been repeated victories from the frontier. It seems that with Lei Ting Ge's influence, this war may be over soon. Although your third brother was disabled as a child, he has always studied military books diligently. He is thoughtful and meticulous in his actions. If he wholeheartedly assists you in the future, the two of you brothers will surely make Lan Zhao flourish!"
Perhaps at this moment, the Emperor was unaware that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. When Qian Yi'an returns, I fear that the skies over this capital city are about to change!
"Father, my third brother has always been intelligent. It's just that we didn't notice before; he's actually quite skilled at leading troops!" At this moment, Qian Si Chen seemed to realize the danger.
"It's good for him to go out and gain some experience, he can better protect this world for you in the future. As for Ge'er's matter, think it over carefully." If Ge'er were just an ordinary woman, the Emperor would not have done this. After all, using force on a girl is not honorable. It's all because Xiao Yuge is a woman of great fortune. If she wants Lan Zhao to be powerful, then she can only marry the future emperor.
As the father and son walked away, chatting along the way, they never realized that someone hidden nearby was listening to every word they said!
In the dark and lifeless prison cell, Xiao Yu Ge had no idea what was happening outside or how long she had been imprisoned. She originally intended to pass the time by meditating, but her heart ached for Qian Ting Xuan. She worried about his poison relapse and feared that if he learned of her misfortune, he would lose control.
So, she couldn't calm down at all and wanted to get up and move around, but even getting up made her sweat profusely. After taking a few steps, she was in pain all over. She cursed the National Teacher in her heart, vowing that when she got out of here, she would definitely get revenge!
At that moment, the prison door opened, and a young palace maid came in, carefully placing the meal before her.
"Leave, I won't eat!" Xiao Yu Ge leaned against the wall, even speaking loudly made her body ache. She didn't know what kind of technique that dog emperor used; she had tried many times, but couldn't break through the sealed acupoints.
"My lady, please eat something. If you don't, I'll be punished! " The little palace maid knelt down with a thud in front of Xiao Yuge and cried, "Yesterday, when Little Yuan went to serve the food, she was seen by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so she was beaten fifty lashes and is now lying on her bed, barely clinging to life."
"What" Xiao Yuge didn't expect that by not eating what they brought, she would even drag them into punishment. She couldn't help but tighten her silver brows.
"My Lady, please, just have a little bite," the young maid pleaded, kneeling there and weeping like a heartbroken soul.
"Alright, you leave the things here, I'll eat them later when I'm hungry." Xiao Yuge finally softened her heart. These young palace maids hadn't done anything wrong; she couldn't implicate them because of this.
"Thank you, Princess!" Upon hearing this, the little maid was overjoyed and burst into tears.
"Wait a moment." Xiao Yuge seemed to have thought of something, so she called her back.
"My Lady, do you have any further orders" the little maid knelt down again obediently.
"If you'd help me with a favor, I'll finish all of this."
As soon as the maidservant heard this, her face turned pale with fright, and she hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "My lady, I'm just a lowly palace maid, I truly can't help you!" She thought the county princess wanted her to be released, or perhaps plead for mercy with the emperor.
Don't refuse me so quickly. I'm not asking you to plead with the Emperor, just slip a message to the Crown Prince, saying that I want to see him! Xiao Yuge knew Qian Sichin wanted to be good to her, and he would definitely come to see her if she asked. As long as he came, she would try to persuade him. She couldn't stay here any longer; she was going crazy.his way This isn't like you."The elder sister is right, this little girl, with those big eyes blinking away, who knows what she's thinking.Xiao Yuge raised her eyes and offered him a sweet smile, a sm...
