The King of the City frowned, could it be that he encountered some danger? Thinking of this, he felt his heart ached. His daughter had just been found, and if something unexpected happened, what should he do?

"Why did Jun Ze come to the palace for no reason? Even if the prince summoned him, wouldn't he refuse on the grounds of being unwell? He met that damn Concubine Xiao, a woman who has no manners, and went to the jungle to keep a date in the middle of the night. I think he has lost his mind after being hit by the emperor." He turned around a few more times in the same place: "I should have broken his legs directly and prevented him from going out, so that Ruoyi would not follow him out to suffer. He is such a jerk, but he can't take care of his own affairs and drags down his sister. He'd better not come back. If he comes back, I'll break his legs!"

He kept saying this without looking outside, let alone at the butler who was winking at him.

"Ahem." The housekeeper couldn't help but whispered, "This old servant greets the young prince and princess."

The King of the City turned around immediately, and when he saw two people standing at the door, he walked over immediately.

"Are you hurt?" The King of the City's eyes were on Shang Ruoyi, not even giving Jun Zegan a glance, and looked her up and down.

Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "No."

"You're still saying no!" He frowned, "How could you not be injured when your face looks so bad?"

"Really not." Shang Ruoyi said with a smile: "I'm just a little tired. I used up some of my energy when treating Concubine Qing. Now I'm a little exhausted."

As soon as he finished speaking, the City King glared at Jun Zegan fiercely: "Look at how tired your sister is. As a brother, how can you drag her down?"

Jun Zegan couldn't help but smile bitterly. Didn't his father see the injuries on his body?

"Father, my brother is injured." Shang Ruoyi said softly, "Don't be angry, and I followed him secretly today, and my brother didn't know about it."

The King of the City looked at the bloodstains on his body and gritted his teeth and said, "You deserve it! Who can you blame for not being as skilled as others? If what I said is correct, your sister didn't follow you secretly today. It's unknown whether you can come back!"

Jun Ze gave a bitter smile and said nothing.

The King of the City knew that he was right. He knew his son's character best. He was a romantic man. Once he fell in love with someone, he would not turn back until he hit the wall. Because he was just like that.

He sighed: "The daughter of the Xiao family is not a good person. Even if she had not entered the palace, I would not agree to you marrying her. Our palace cannot have a mistress with a vicious mind."

"Yes, son, I know I was wrong." Jun Zegan rarely lowered his head like this. The King of the City looked at him and said, "Go back and let the doctor take a good look at your injuries."

"Father, just help my brother get treated." As Shang Ruoyi finished speaking, she was stopped by the King of the City: "What are you talking about? He is only suffering from superficial injuries, he won't die, just let the court doctor apply some medicine, why do you need to treat him? You have done me a great favor by bringing him back alive, go and have a rest, let the court doctor take a look at him."

"Father, you are not as fragile as you think."

"No." The King of the City waved his hand, and Yu Qing stepped forward: "Little Princess, I will help you wash and dress."

Shang Ruoyi smiled helplessly and had to leave with Yuqing.

Seeing her disappearing from his sight, the smile on King Cheng's face suddenly disappeared, and he looked at Jun Zegan sternly: "Come with me."

When someone came to the ancestral hall in the backyard, the city king said coldly, "Kneel down."

Jun Zegan knelt on the cushion and kowtowed respectfully to the portrait hanging on the wall.

"Do you know why I punished you?"

Jun Zegan nodded: "Son, I accept the punishment."

"Do you still remember your mother's teachings? As a prince, you were manipulated by a woman. If it weren't for your sister, would you be prepared to risk your life or put the entire City Palace in danger? Would you let those soldiers who followed you die without knowing why?"

"My son knows he was wrong."

"Even if you admit your mistake now, I will still punish you." The King of the City said in a deep voice: "Since you are injured now, I will exempt you from the caning. I will punish you to kneel in front of your mother's portrait for four hours and reflect on your mistakes."

"yes."

The King of the City looked at the wounds on his body and frowned slightly, but he did not say much. He looked at the portrait again and turned away.

As soon as he left the ancestral hall, the housekeeper came over hurriedly and said, "My Lord, the princess has not returned to the courtyard."

"Where did she go?"

"Dungeon."

"What?" The City King walked towards the dungeon, saying as he walked, "This little ancestor, she's not well yet, what is she doing there? Each one is more troublesome than the other. When I bring her back, I will definitely take her to her mother's portrait and have a good talk with her."

The housekeeper smiled and shook his head when he heard this. If the prince made a mistake, he would be punished by kneeling in front of the princess's portrait. If the princess made a mistake, she only needed to say a word. The difference in treatment was too obvious.

At this time, Concubine Xiao and He Jinghe were imprisoned in different cells. Shang Ruoyi came to the dungeon door, and the guard knew her.

"My Lord, why are you here?"

"Where is the prisoner who was just sent in by someone else being held?"

The guard whispered, "Princess, this dungeon is full of poor and extremely evil criminals. I'm afraid it will scare you."

"Who scared whom?" Shang Ruoyi glanced at him and smiled: "Why, this princess can't go in?"

"No." He was mainly afraid that the princess would be frightened. Given how much their prince valued the princess, if he knew that she was frightened by him, his life would be in danger.

"Since you can come in, why don't you get out of the way?"

"Yes, yes, yes." He wiped the sweat from his head. The princess's aura was not inferior to their prince at all.

As soon as the dungeon door opened, a damp smell mixed with mold hit me in the face.

"My Lord, if you want to interrogate a prisoner, I will bring him one."

"No need." She walked straight down.

The dungeon was dimly lit, and every cell was filled with prisoners. When they saw someone coming in, they all huddled in the corner.

Shang Ruoyi was wearing a white dress, which looked out of place here.

Walking to the innermost part of the road, Shang Ruoyi stopped and looked into the cell. He Jinghe was still dizzy. She had indeed attacked him too hard before, but He Jinghe's health was also in poor condition.

She turned the corner and walked deeper.

After walking for a while, she saw a familiar figure.

"Noble Concubine Xiao." Shang Ruoyi stood outside the cell, looking at Xiao Zhenzhen who was pretending to sleep inside and sneered: "It is said that you can't wake up a person who pretends to be asleep. I don't have to ask you anything, but I hate it most when others act in front of me. Since you like to act so much, why don't I help you and knock you out directly, so that you don't have to pretend here."
