In the dark and damp prison, snakes, insects, rats and ants were rampant.
All the prisoners here are serious criminals.
Chu Rong has been here for four days.
Her neat and luxurious clothes were now covered with the mud from the prison.
The bun on her head, which was decorated with pearl hairpins, was already in disarray, with a few strands of hair draped over her shoulders.
She huddled in a small corner, avoiding the mouse lying in front of her.
Several days have passed, why has no one come to see her?
What happened to Fusu? Has something happened to him?
No, Ying Zheng will definitely try his best to save him.
But if Fusu was really okay, then why didn't he come to see him?
Could it be that Fusu hated her so much that he didn't want to see her after knowing what she had done?
In the past few days, many questions have been circling in Chu Rong's mind.
She couldn't wait to know what was happening outside.
But she seemed to have been forgotten, and no one came to talk to her.
Such loneliness frightened her.
She had thought about many things in the past few days.
She did not regret killing Ying Zheng, but was just afraid that Fusu would be harmed.
She really didn't want to harm Fusu. He was her son. If anything really happened to Fusu, she would not live alone.
In the silent prison, Chu Rong kept thinking about random things.
There seemed to be some sound coming from somewhere.
Chu Rong could no longer confirm whether that was the sound of a mouse running outside.
Until the sound got closer and louder.
A slender shadow passed by the lamp not far away, illuminating the door in front of her.
Soon, several pieces of robes gradually appeared in front.
She opened her eyes wide and recognized that it was Ying Zheng's clothes.
Finally someone came, it was Ying Zheng.
Chu Rong looked up along the black robe by the door and saw Ying Zheng's familiar cold face.
She quickly stood up from the corner and patted her skirt which was in a shattered state.
She kept fiddling with the hair on both sides of her head with her hands, and forced herself to stand up calmly and look directly at Ying Zheng outside.
"You are finally here. How is Fusu? Is he okay?"
The first person Chu Rong was concerned about was Fusu.
Has Fusu's poison been cured?
Ying Zheng looked at the woman opposite him.
"Fusu is fine now."
His deep voice was particularly clear in the silent prison.
Hearing this, Chu Rong covered his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fusu is fine, as long as Fusu is fine.
Chu Rong had already anticipated his fate.
Now she doesn't care about anything else except Fusu's life or death.
"I'm glad Fusu is okay, Your Majesty. I know I committed a capital crime, and I have nothing to say. However, Fusu had nothing to do with this matter. I was the one who implicated him. I hope you won't harbor any grudges against him in the future."
"As for me, I accept any punishment."
If she loses, she loses. Even if she dies, she wants to die with dignity.
Seeing her behavior, Ying Zheng twitched the corner of his mouth and sneered.
"Death, you think it's too simple."
He promised Fusu that he would not kill her.
Besides, death was too easy for her.
She committed such a serious crime, and she really thought I would let her go.
"Chu, do you think you can take all the blame on yourself? Let me guess, is Xiong Qi, or the State of Chu, the instigator of this incident?"
Chu Rong pursed her lips and pretended to be calm.
"I won't execute you, but I won't let Xiong Qi's life go."
Ying Zheng chuckled.
"What did you do to Changping Jun?"
That was her younger brother, the one who lived with her in a foreign country.
"I tore him apart a few days ago. His body should have been completely devoured by wild wolves in the suburbs."
He said it nonchalantly.
On the night Chu Rong was captured, Changping Jun was dealt with by him.
"What? This matter has nothing to do with him!"
Chu Rong screamed, why did you hurt the people around her.
"Not only will I kill him, I will also not let the Chu people go. Those Chu people who resist me will also be slaughtered."
"I promised Fusu that I would not kill you, but you will be imprisoned for life."
"You will witness the demise of the Chu State with your own eyes."
"You will also witness Fusu's alienation. He will have an elder who treats him well, and he will gradually forget you as his mother."
"He'll feel like your presence is a burden."
"He'll know exactly where you are, but he won't want to see you."
Ying Zheng said indifferently.
But every word is heart-wrenching.
He would not kill him, but would plunder everything she cared about, including Fusu.
From now on, she will live in endless loneliness and regret until her death.
Chu Rong was frightened by his words and retreated towards the wall tremblingly.
She had already imagined the day that Ying Zheng had described.
No, that kind of life would drive her crazy!
She collapsed against the wall, her eyes blank, unable to utter a word.
Ying Zheng looked at her quietly.
The way she looked now made him feel very happy.
That's what it is, to fundamentally destroy a person, to destroy her spirit, it's such an addictive thing.
Ying Zheng curled his lips.
He had said everything he wanted to say and left without any regrets.
Chu Rong stood on the ground in a daze, waiting for someone to take her out of the prison.
What awaits her is endless loneliness in the deep palace.
Here, Ying Zheng put an end to this matter.
Zhao Jun finally had the best sleep he had in the past week.
When she finally woke up from her sleep, it was already early morning.
