Chapter 392 Everyone Just Treats Him as a Dead Man
After Ji Xiaohan ascended the throne and became emperor, good things happened one after another, and he had already established a lot of prestige in the hearts of the people. In the current Great Zhou Kingdom, who still remembered him as the crown prince? Who still remembered that he, Ji Mingshuo, was the future emperor?
Because of his carelessness and soft-heartedness towards Ji Xiaohan, the emperor's father ended up with a miserable end. But what was his fault? Was he born to be against Ji Xiaohan?
No, not really! He was forced step by step into this situation by his father, the emperor, and his mother. He should have had a better ending, instead of being trapped in this prison, without seeing the sun.
And that idiot Ji Mingzhao, as a concubine prince, should have known his duty, behaved himself and been a good assistant to him. Instead, he thought things he shouldn't have thought about and did things he shouldn't have done, which eventually implicated him.
If it weren't for his cleverness, collaborating with the secret agents of the Golden Feather Nation and selling out his country for personal gain, how could they have made such a fortune? Even the last bit of capital they had for a comeback was lost?
No matter how upset Ji Mingshuo was, he no longer had any thoughts of anything else as he stayed in this prison.
Everything is gone, it’s all over!
"Master, it's time for dinner!"
A mocking voice interrupted Ji Mingshuo's thoughts. He turned his back to the prison door, with murderous intent flashing across his face. This man was the eunuch chief of his Prince's Mansion, and he once regarded him as his confidant.
Little did he know that this man was actually someone Ji Xiaohan had planted next to him in his early years. All of Ji Xiaohan's secret plans were reported to Ji Xiaohan by him, causing him to suffer a crushing defeat.
Seeing that Ji Mingshuo didn't move, the old eunuch smiled and said, "Master, man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. Even if you starve yourself to death, there's no way to get out of here. It's better to eat, drink, and sleep properly and relax. Why bother with your body?"
Ji Mingshuo: “…”
The old eunuch continued to smile as he stuffed the food in. "Besides, even in your condition, I'm still willing to bring you food every day. I've done my best. You should be happy. What do you think?"
Ji Mingshuo's eyebrows twitched when he heard this. He turned around, grabbed the broken bowl of rice, and threw it at the old eunuch, shouting, "Get out!"
The old eunuch dodged lightly and watched the chipped bowl fall to the ground and shatter into pieces. A smile filled his eyes. "Master, your energy is still strong. It seems that the food I brought you these days is too delicious. Since you don't appreciate it, I won't bring you food these two days."
Having said this, the old eunuch turned and left. Before leaving, he asked the jailer not to disturb his master's rest and that he would come to visit again in a few days.
The jailers working in the Sky Prison are all descendants of the aristocratic families in the imperial city. They are opportunistic, flattering, and greedy for money, and these traits are fully displayed in them.
What's more, as the crown prince of the previous dynasty, it was impossible for Ji Mingshuo to escape from the prison alive. Their current emperor is Prince Xiao, who has made great military achievements. His popularity and strength were gained by leading soldiers in battle. Who wouldn't admire him?
In order to please the new emperor, the jailers would not take extra care of Ji Mingshuo. As long as it would not bring shame to the royal family, they would abuse Ji Mingshuo. When the emperor knew about it, he would be even happier.
In the entire prison, except for Ji Mingshuo who was still dreaming of revival, everyone else just treated him as a dead man.
