Chen Ming'an was the Imperial Scholar whom Princess Ronghua, Zhu Huaizhen, had set her eyes on in the Golden Imperial Hall.
However, he refused the bestowed marriage, saying, "Your Hi...
Chapter 7 Imprisonment
The scent of mint, mixed with sparse sunlight, penetrated the iron window.
When Zhu Huaizhen woke up, he took a light sniff and his eyes were filled with tears.
This is the Swallow Tower. Outside the Swallow Tower, mint is planted everywhere.
At first, she didn't know Chen Ming'an's intentions and thought that Chen Ming'an simply liked mint. Chen Ming'an's temperament was calm, similar to the cooling properties of mint.
Now she understands that peppermint helps with asthma.
This Swallow Tower was built by Chen Ming'an for Zhao Lian'er for her wedding.
Bah, why was she feeling so sad for this pair of bastards...
This pair of dogs is the one who destroyed her Southern Wu!
Zhu Huaizhen suddenly came to his senses and slapped his forehead hard.
When Chen Mingan came in, he saw Zhu Huaizhen looking silly.
He suppressed the smile on his face and walked forward.
"Tu Mi, you are Chen Ming'an's person..." Zhu Huaizhen walked past Chen Ming'an and saw Tu Mi. He felt sad again. Then he saw the chains that bound her hands and feet, and his eyes gradually became moist.
Haitang belongs to Zhao Lianer, and Tumi belongs to Chen Mingan.
This couple of dogs, aren't they watching her fall in love every day?
This Princess Ronghua is such a complete failure.
"Chen Ming'an, where are my father and mother?" Zhu Huaizhen wanted to raise her hand to wipe away her tears, but the chain tightened around her wrist, leaving a tiny red mark. She bit her lip in pain.
She didn't want to cry anymore, at least not in front of Chen Mingan.
"Zhenzhen, Southern Wu has been destroyed. Come back to Southern Yan with me." Chen Mingan took out the key from his waist.
Zhu Huaizhen guessed that this was the key to open the chain.
As long as she nodded, she could move freely for a while.
But why should she follow Chen Mingan's wishes?
Southern Wu has been destroyed. As the king of a fallen country, how could Aye have a good ending? And A Niang will follow him through life and death.
"Chen Mingan, let's go to another place. Kill me. I think Swallow Tower is dirty." Zhu Huaizhen closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling slightly.
In the end, she still chose death, even though her elder sister had repeatedly told her to stay alive.
As soon as the words fell, Chen Mingan grabbed her throat and lifted her broken body high into the air. He only needed to use 30% of his internal strength to kill her.
However, as time passed, Chen Mingan finally let go.
Zhu Huaizhen fell to the ground with a thud, causing the wound on his chest to move. He coughed violently, and blood soaked the pure white bandage, just like the camellia flowers that broke off their branches and leaves and lost their heads overnight when Gusu City fell, splashing a tragic red.
Chen Mingan felt an inexplicable pain in his chest and unconsciously covered it.
"Zhu Huaizhen, if you want to commit suicide, then let the whole Gusu be buried with you. As long as you don't agree to follow me back to Nanyan, I will let Tu Mi kill a Gusu person and send him to you. By the way, let's start with the actors you keep in your house." Chen Ming calmed himself down and turned to leave.
"Chen Ming'an, how dare you! You, Nan Yan, destroyed Nan Wu, so you should be responsible for them..." Zhu Huaizhen was very flustered and raised his voice inadvertently.
Unfortunately, Chen Mingan did what he said.
Zhu Huaizhen refused to eat and kept clamoring to see Emperor Wu Zhang and Concubine Xue. Tu Mi immediately killed an actor, wrapped him up in a straw mat, and sent him to her, which frightened her.
Then, she consoled herself by thinking that the actors her elder sister had sent her to entertain her were all slaves from various countries, except for the Southern Wu. Perhaps Chen Ming'an had ordered Tu Mi to kill the Southern Yan people.
However, the once vibrant lives now showed the tragic scene of death in front of her.
She was afraid, and her tears fell worthlessly, so she had no choice but to compromise.
