Xi Wujue scoffed, "What do you think?"
"If you don't know it, why do you think Ouyang Zhen does?"
“But…” Xi Wujue still felt something was wrong.
"Your Highness, don't let this woman scheme against you. She's cunning and definitely not someone to be trifled with."
“I know Ouyang Zhen; he would definitely compromise for this woman.”
Before Xi Wujue could speak, the man dressed in black with a ghost mask hurriedly spoke up.
Han Luoxue turned her head indifferently, her gaze falling on the mysterious man. His voice was a little hoarse, and Han Luoxue was quite certain that she had never seen him before, but the man's eyes made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
It was as if he was unwilling to accept it, or as if he deeply resented himself.
Who is this?
Han Luoxue looked at the man in black with suspicion. The man in black sneered, "Your Majesty the Empress is too forgetful. How could you possibly remember me?"
"It turns out to be an old acquaintance!"
Han Luoxue smiled faintly. Although she was now a prisoner, she was calm and composed, showing no signs of worry.
"I've never been to Xiyao Kingdom, and I probably don't know many people there, yet you know me. Let me think, who could you be?"
Han Luoxue's eyes darted around. Actually, she didn't have anyone to suspect. The only person who had a grudge against her and connections to Xiyao Kingdom was the former crown prince. But the former crown prince was already dead.
Wait a minute, Han Luoxue suddenly thought of a possibility: the so-called death of the former crown prince was just something said by his entourage. But what if that person had been bribed by the former crown prince?
Han Luoxue shook her head, feeling the idea was somewhat absurd. If she remembered correctly, the two men who had escorted the former crown prince had also come to the Western Shu border. However, he had come with General Xu and would need to be taken for a few more days.
"Are you Ouyang Fu?"
Han Luoxue chuckled. In fact, she was just saying it casually, but the man's body trembled slightly.
Han Luoxue couldn't help but laugh: "I wondered who it was, it really is the former crown prince... They say good people don't live long, but bad people live for a thousand years. You're even more amazing than bad people. Your life is really tough."
When the news of Ouyang Fu's death first arrived, Han Luoxue read it carefully. It was said he died suddenly, initially with a fever. But now, upon closer inspection…
This is a bit unexpected. If the two people being escorted are innocent, then Ouyang Fu must have Xi Wujue's men with him. This scumbag faked his death and escaped, but what about the Empress and her women?
"Han Luoxue!"
Ouyang Fu said through gritted teeth, and then raised her hand to slap Han Luoxue.
Han Luoxue was not restrained. Just as her hand was about to land on his face, Han Luoxue suddenly raised her hand and grabbed his arm with her slender little hand. Ouyang Fu moved a few times, but he couldn't break free.
His expression changed repeatedly, while Xi Wujue laughed loudly from the side: "Ouyang Fu, it seems you're still no good! You can't even beat a woman!"
Ouyang Fu's expression changed, and he tried to break free, but Han Luoxue's hand was like an iron clamp.
"What's wrong? Former Crown Prince, have you not eaten?"
Han Luoxue looked around the room. There were only five or six people in total. After a moment's thought, she pulled Ouyang Fu forward.
"Han Luoxue, you..."
Just as Han Luoxue was about to release the tiger, she suddenly felt a chill on her lower back, and her body trembled.
"Your Majesty, please calm down."
Hearing Xi Wujue's forced smile, Han Luoxue scoffed, suddenly loosened her grip, and forcefully flung him away.
"Ah!" Ouyang Fu stumbled back a few steps and fell to the ground with a thud. Everyone was shocked. No one expected that Ouyang Fu would be so useless.
"Ouyang Fu, you..." Xi Wujue was speechless, the dagger still pressed against Han Luoxue's waist, not put away.
Han Luoxue didn't dare to move rashly for the time being. She actually wanted to try to put the dagger away, but what if she couldn't?
She didn't dare take that risk.
"Your Highness, I told you this woman is suspicious, she's incredibly strong!" Ouyang Fu struggled to his feet. He had always thought of Han Luoxue as a delicate and beautiful woman, but just now... even a grown man couldn't have done that!
"Heh, Ouyang Fu, if you're not good enough, just say so. Why make so many excuses! This is the first time I've seen someone as useless as you. You are clearly the incomparably noble Crown Prince, yet you..."
Ouyang Fu's face turned ashen. Luckily, he was wearing a mask; otherwise, he didn't know how much more humiliating he would have been.
“Your Highness, what I’m telling you is true. This woman is definitely not simple. She herself said she has no medical skills, but how did Ouyang Zhen’s leg get better? He’s been hiding in a small mountain valley for so many years. Do you think it could have gotten better suddenly?”
Previously, there was no information about Ouyang Zhen, but after learning about him later, it became much easier to search for him.
Ouyang Fu has never been without regret, so why wasn't a thorough investigation conducted?
If he had known earlier that Ouyang Zhen was so close to him, he would have searched the entire outskirts of Beijing to find him.
"Idiot!"
"However, Your Majesty, since you're still going to ask for something, I'll have to accept it!"
About half an hour later, Han Luoxue was locked in a secret room.
There isn't even a bed here; there's just some straw on the ground.
Her hands were tied behind her back, but her feet were not.
Han Luoxue sat on the grass, looking at the situation before her. She wasn't sure if anyone was watching her from outside, but she couldn't move right now.
Ouyang Fu was actually alive. The Emperor was unaware of this yet, so she needed to find a way to inform him first.
Looking at the sunlight outside, although it couldn't reach the room, Han Luoxue knew that even if someone was watching her, there would be times when she was careless at night.
...
"No, that's impossible!"
Ouyang Zhen found it hard to believe when she heard the news. She had sent her closest people to guard him, so how could Ouyang Fu have escaped death?
It's a pity Yang Feng and the others haven't arrived yet, otherwise he would have asked them about the situation in detail. Actually, he had already asked when he learned of Ouyang Fu's death, but that person...
If Ouyang Fu falls into my hands again, I will definitely cut him into a thousand pieces.
He simply doesn't believe that if you chop someone into mincemeat, they can be resurrected.
However, thinking of Han Luoxue's words, Ouyang Zhen's eyes darkened.
"Sister, sister!"
After Han Mengze woke up, he started shouting loudly.
Han Mingyuan saw that the little boy's face was flushed red from the fever. He had already taken the medicine left by Han Luoxue. The little boy's temperature had dropped a lot, but he still had a fever.
Han Luoyu's condition has improved considerably, mainly because he has the mildest fever symptoms among the three.
"Father, will my eldest sister be alright?"
