"Your Highness, you're awake!"
Hearing the commotion, Ye Qi rushed in excitedly.
As soon as she entered the room, she saw her prince, unable to contain his passion, pressing his princess down and pulling her onto the bed.
The wolf-like, tiger-like posture made people blush.
He exclaimed in surprise and turned around immediately, almost knocking Qing Sui, who was following behind, flying.
The two of them hurriedly left the door and then quickly closed it again.
Ye Qi blushed deeply, his eyes darting around awkwardly.
Qing Sui hit her head and was glaring at him menacingly, clutching her forehead.
"Night Chief, I'm afraid your position won't last long!"
Mo Yunhan quickly took Jiang Qingwan's hand and walked out.
She glanced at Ye Qi with icy eyes.
"Go back and accept your punishment."
Ye Qi quickly agreed.
Qinghui had already walked up to Jiang Qingwan's side.
"Your Highness, shall we return to the capital?"
Jiang Qingwan's lips were kissed until they were glistening and beautiful, making her already stunningly pretty face even more alluring. She looked up at Mo Yunhan.
"Is this carriage safe to ride in?"
A very luxurious twelve-horse carriage was parked outside the courtyard.
The current regent is equivalent to a half-emperor.
The falcon beside the carriage was puffing hot air from its nostrils and kicking the ground with its hooves, clearly annoyed at being overshadowed.
Mo Yunhan pondered for a moment, then suddenly bent down and picked Jiang Qingwan up in his arms.
"The imperial edict has been issued; how can I disobey it?"
He strode toward the carriage, carefully placed Jiang Qingwan inside, and then bent down and sat down himself.
Looking around, he noticed that two beasts were missing.
"Where are Xiaohong and Xiaohua?"
Jiang Qingwan nestled into his arms.
"They were taken away by their master. Following their master will be more helpful for their cultivation."
Mo Yunhan did not have much doubt about this.
"Set off back to Beijing."
The guards raised the Great Zhou flag and shouted, "Let's set off!"
The carriage slowly started moving.
Ye Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, Qinghui said, "Don't you think the princess is acting a little strange?"
"Strange? What's strange about it?"
Ye Qi wiped the thin layer of sweat from his forehead. "Do I think this is normal?"
Qing Sui gave him a disdainful look.
"Don't you think the princess is a bit clingy?"
Ye Qi returned her gaze with even more disdain.
"The prince and princess must have developed a deep bond after going through life and death together. What do you know if you haven't experienced it?"
Qing Sui kicked it.
"Su Liuer said that you are still a virgin!"
"fart!"
Ye Qi's face turned red.
"I'm going back to duel her, that damned woman!"
Qing Sui shrugged noncommittally, glanced at the carriage that had already gone some distance, said nothing more, mounted her horse, and quickly chased after it.
...
Inside the Jingzhao Prefecture prison,
The two adjacent cells had completely opposite situations.
On one side, six men who had been severely tortured lay in a pile of dry grass on the ground. On the other side, Luo Ruyan was enjoying a massage from Cuiya. On the table in front of her were roast chicken and rice wine, which could be considered a feast in the prison.
"You slut, you shameless slut, we'll haunt you even as ghosts."
“We have been hiding for many years without being discovered, but you lured us out with a signal and surrounded us. What kind of citizen are you, Sui Dynasty?”
"Cough cough cough..."
The painful groans and incessant cursing did not affect Luo Ruyan in the slightest.
She poured herself a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.
“You lot are about to die and you still can’t see the truth. Where is the Sui Dynasty now? It has been gone for nineteen years. Why should I risk my life for an impossible dream of restoring the country?”
“I advise you, those who understand the times are wise. If you don’t want to suffer physical pain, confess everything you can. Perhaps that will save your lives. I plan to meet with the Emperor and exchange the ruins of the Sui Dynasty for my freedom. Moreover…”
She slowly raised her hand and touched her face.
"I've heard that the Emperor has recently taken a liking to women. With my seductive skills, he might fall in love with me at first sight and be unable to resist me. Wouldn't that make me a royal concubine? Wouldn't that make my life complete?"
The people in the next cell were horrified.
"You actually know the site of the Sui Dynasty? Did Zhou Tao tell you? I'll kill you right now!"
They were all filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could crawl over and tear Luo Ruyan to pieces.
But he was seriously injured and there was nothing that could be done.
Once the location of the Sui Dynasty's former site is discovered by the Zhou people, the last remaining bloodline of the Sui Dynasty will surely be eradicated.
Luo Ruyan looked at their dog-like behavior and laughed wildly.
She became a spy only to seek wealth and status. Summoned to the capital and witnessing its prosperity, she had no desire to return to a life of hardship. Now that the hope of national prosperity was gone, she naturally sought new opportunities.
"You bunch of idiots, you want to kill me? Come on, try!"
Suddenly, Cuiya behind her screamed and fell to the ground.
Suddenly, a cloud of black mist appeared in the prison cell.
The mist, like a door, opened a gap.
A person dressed in a black robe walked out from inside.
A dark aura surrounded him, and the chilling energy made the ground seem to be covered in frost.
Luo Ruyan retreated in fright, but was tripped by Cuiya behind her, and they both fell down.
"Who...who are you? Someone's here...!"
The two tried to shout to attract the yamen runners.
A small, pale hand slowly emerged from beneath the black robe.
He gently touched their foreheads from a distance.
Their mouths gaped open, they froze instantly, and within two breaths, they fell straight to the ground, silent.
The people next door were dumbfounded.
