"Da Xuexue, have you ever thought about leaving the storm room and living a normal life?"

"Why did you suddenly think of asking this question?!"

Nangong Xue was a little surprised...

"How could I not have thought about it? Who would want to live in darkness in this torture chamber, not to mention the lowly identity of a prisoner?"

"However, since I met you, this idea has gradually faded... Now, you are my home!"

The situation of Nangong Xue and her daughter was relatively better. The torture chamber was a terrifying place, and many family members of convicted officials would rather commit suicide than go to this torture chamber.

Xing Bang stroked her hair lovingly and continued, "Da Xuexue, let me tell you the truth. Today, His Majesty in the Hall of Supreme Harmony suddenly mentioned you and your daughter."

Nangong Xue was shocked. "Why did he suddenly mention us? If he knows about us, it won't harm you, right?"

"No, don't worry!" Then, Xing Bang gave a brief description of the situation in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Nangong Xue suddenly looked at Xing Bang, with a slightly worried look on her face, and then she let out a long sigh: "The imperial family is the most ruthless. His Majesty suddenly brought up this matter now, he must be using you to achieve some purpose."

"I understand your thoughts... Actually, life is pretty good now, and I really don't want you to encounter any difficulties because of things."

"Da Xuexue, just because I never asked about this before doesn't mean I haven't thought about it. If I have the chance, I will definitely give you a better life...

Besides, since His Majesty has taken the initiative to tell me about this matter, I can't stay out of it. He must want me to do something to make our relationship a success. It's just a favor from him."

"Most importantly, for you, even if there is a pit ahead, I will fill it up without hesitation."

"I... really don't know what to say!"

Nangong Xue's heart warmed up and her eyes suddenly became moist.

"No need to say anything, you are my Daxuexue!"

The two looked at each other, with nothing else in their minds except deep love...

"Don't...what if Wan'er comes over!"

"Huh? What's going on? We were just talking about your late husband. Why did this happen out of nowhere?"

Xing Bang's expression was very serious, it was true that love was strong when it mattered!

What's more, the mature charm that Nangong Xue exudes really makes people feel miserable.

"Hate it, you are such a sly guy, tonight..."

Nangong Xue looked at Xing Bang's aggrieved expression and smiled sweetly in her heart. She missed him so much after not seeing him for so many days.

"Okay, put away that charming expression of yours, be serious, and tell me the truth about the case. If you dare to seduce me again, you will be punished severely."

Nangong Xue chuckled, "Yes, I obey your command!"

"You are right. Xiaowan's father was convicted of treason. I am sure the mastermind behind this is the Xiao family father and son. My late husband is a man who would rather break than bend. He had many political disagreements with Prime Minister Xiao in the court, and he impeached Xiao Shizhong, the Minister of War, many times."

"Everyone in the court knows that Xiao Shizhong is corrupt and committing crimes, but due to the power of the Xiao family, they dare not speak out. Xiaowan's father is naturally a thorn in their eyes."

"When Your Majesty was appointing a crown prince, my husband was strongly opposed to deposing the eldest and enthroning the youngest. Your Majesty was jealous of him. Later, he was falsely accused of often conspiring with his fellow officials and secretly expressing his dissatisfaction with the court by talking about deposing and enthroning the emperor. They could easily find a pretext to accuse him, so he was later convicted of treason."

"Whether it is an injustice or a trumped-up charge, everyone in the court, including Your Majesty, has a clear idea of ​​whether it is a false charge or not."

"Da Xuexue, don't be sad. The injustice will be vindicated sooner or later. Maybe His Majesty has a change of heart?"

Xing Bang held Nangong Xue's hand to express his comfort. Although times have changed, it is inevitable to feel some sadness and anger when talking about it.

She tucked her hair in front of her forehead, then looked at Xing Bang and forced a smile, indicating that she was fine and there was no need to worry.

"Everything is fate. In the final analysis, Xiaowan's father is too stubborn and won't change his mind. Although he doesn't embezzle or accept bribes, he places too much emphasis on fame and fortune. It's been so long since the incident happened, and I've already let it go."

"Things in the court are too complicated. One careless mistake could lead to disaster. I can do anything to clear my late husband's name. It is also my duty!"

"Don't worry, Daxuexue, now that you know about this, I will do my best, which can be regarded as doing my part for you, senior."

Xing Bang seemed to be joking in order to lighten the atmosphere, but what he said was also the truth. Nangong Xue was a woman who valued love and friendship, and this matter might be her only concern.

Nangong Xue shook her head. She had always wanted to clear her husband's name, but she absolutely could not bear to see Xing Bang fall into any trouble. She knew very well the consequences of doing so.

"I know you pity me, but you need to know what redress means."

Xing Bang smiled slightly, "How can I not understand this? To vindicate him means that I may have to compete with the Xiao family father and son..."

"I know you're still doing this. The Xiao family has great power in the court and the harem, and the queen is supporting them... At least it's far from enough now."

Nangong Xue has absolute trust in Xing Bang and believes that he will achieve great things in the future.

"Da Xuexue, there are some things here that you don't understand clearly. I can't explain them in a few words. Sooner or later, I will let you know. Anyway, remember, I will not only protect you, but also will not put myself in danger.

Besides, since Your Majesty picked up this matter, it is certainly not a whim. If I am not mistaken, you should want to take action against the Xiao family. Xiao Shizhong is probably doomed. If he doesn't die, he will be skinned alive this time."

Xing Bang looked at the whole situation and it was obvious to him that Liu Xian must have known all of this. The case of the female corpse in the dry well had not yet been concluded, and now they had to bring up this bigger case at this critical juncture. Could it be that they were just making a lot of noise but getting nothing?

However, the fact that Liu Xian brought up Nangong Xue clearly had another meaning, which was to make him determined to deal with the Xiao family and tie them to his chariot completely.

Nangong Xue is also a double-edged sword, and can also be a bargaining chip that can threaten him. Now, if he wants to get them mother and daughter out of the palace without anyone noticing, the only way left is to rehabilitate them.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Liu Xian dies, but this is impossible at the moment.

It's not that easy. In addition to Cao Zhengchun, the top master, there are four mysterious elders...

If you're not careful, the whole plate will be ruined.

"Anyway, you must be more careful. People will still be like Rushuang and treat you like that..."

Nangong Xue was a free and easy woman. She didn't say anything more, but hugged Xing Bang tightly.
