When Mo Shisheng woke up, she felt so much pain in her neck that she couldn't turn it. She then discovered that she was bound to a cross, her hands and feet tightly locked in heavy shackles, which restricted even her basic freedom of movement.
She gently curved her lips into a smile, her gaze falling on Shangguan Murou standing in front of her. She simply smiled without uttering a single word.
However, such a smile was interpreted as mockery by Shangguan Murou, whose eyes flashed with malice. "What, you can still laugh even at this point?"
"If I don't laugh, am I supposed to cry?" Mo Shisheng said softly, her soft red lips curving slightly.
"It was your father who arrested you. How does it feel to be betrayed by everyone?" Shangguan Murou seemed furious. After saying this, she couldn't help but laugh. Her laughter was arrogant and contained a sense of triumph.
Mo Shisheng's gaze fell lightly on her, without any emotion or words, he just stared at Shangguan Murou quietly.
“From the moment I realized that I was not of the Shangguan family bloodline, I had already suspected it, but I just lacked an opportunity to prove it.”
In fact, Mo Shisheng was indeed drunk last night, but she was just unsteady on her feet. When Ming Beiya carried her back to the Shangguan Mansion, she heard everything he said to Shangguan Leiting.
Perhaps because so much had happened last night, Mo Shisheng couldn't fall asleep at all after Ming Beiya left, and ended up just lying on the bed in a daze.
The moment the door was pushed open and she opened her eyes to see Shangguan Leiting, she knew that the truth had finally come to light.
Do you think you'll get out of here alive this time?
Shangguan Murou looked at Mo Shisheng's stunning face and sneered, "I underestimated your tenacious vitality, you bastard! You've even recovered your appearance! What, you think you can become a phoenix by hooking up with the Imperial Advisor with that face?"
"If Aunt is very dissatisfied with living as a widow, I can ask the Emperor for an imperial decree to allow you to remarry in a grand manner."
Mo Shisheng curled her red lips slightly, her words leaving no room for sentimentality.
"What else can you do now besides spouting nonsense? Just sit here and wait to die! This time you're definitely going to die!" Shangguan Murou's eyes were dark and terrifying, and her beautiful face was twisted with hatred.
After she turned and left, Mo Shisheng took a deep breath and looked at the ceiling, a faint mockery appearing in her eyes.
...
Mo Shisheng's disappearance has caused a sensation throughout the Qi Kingdom. The Crown Prince of the Southern Kingdom and the Grand Tutor of the Feng Kingdom were both present when such a major incident occurred.
The person who kidnapped Mo Shisheng must have known that she was the eldest sister of the Shangguan family and the beloved of the Imperial Advisor, which is why they were willing to go to any lengths to capture her.
Inside the Imperial Preceptor's residence, Ming Beiya's face was extremely gloomy, and the oppressive atmosphere emanating from him could freeze a person to death! Three times in a row, he searched the entire Qi Kingdom but still couldn't find Mo Shisheng's whereabouts!
Even Zhuque, Chihu, and Qingluan couldn't find him. There wasn't a single clue. It was as if Mo Shisheng had vanished into thin air!
The Shangguan family, the palace, and even the Imperial Preceptor's mansion all sent out to search for her, but they all returned empty-handed and without any trace, which was completely illogical.
Ming Beiya was filled with self-blame. He knew that Mo Shisheng was drunk that night and unable to protect herself. He was the one who failed to protect her.
