After she said that, the man next to her stopped moving.
The dark phoenix eyes seemed like a bottomless pool, staring at her for a moment.
"Mianmian, you seem to be very concerned about the Imperial Master?"
There was something inexplicably dangerous in his casual tone.
The girl intuitively sensed the man's sudden change in mood, lowered her head like a small animal giving a warning, and spoke softly and obediently.
"After all, he was injured because he saved me. He is my benefactor. I just asked out of concern. I don't have any other intentions."
The girl's pale pink fingertips were tightly twisted and held in the broad palm.
Lou Che touched the spoon to the girl's lips, and his low voice sounded, tender and seductive.
"Don't worry, Mianmian. Uncle will be fine after half a month of rest. Come, I'll feed you some porridge."
She opened her mouth obediently without even looking at what was in the spoon.
She was afraid of angering the emperor, and then she would be the one to suffer.
"Mianmian, be good."
His low voice was soft and seductive, and the girl's calm heart began to beat like a deer, unable to find the right way out.
The pure white earlobe was stained with a light crimson color.
Lou Che seemed to be in a good mood at this moment, his eyes half closed, and he chuckled softly.
"By the way, I have lost your bracelet."
The girl was swallowing and choked on her porridge anxiously. "Cough, cough, cough."
Her round and wet eyes were soaked with moisture, and her soft voice was filled with tears.
"How could you do this, Your Majesty? That's mine..."
The veins on the man's strong arms were prominent, and he patted her back slowly, reducing his strength.
"It's already been thrown away. Whatever bracelet Mianmian wants, I can give you a better one."
He tapped the table with his index finger, and then a group of maids pushed the door open and came in.
The tray in his hand was filled with jewels and silks collected from the national treasury, which were priceless.
Lou Che waved his sleeves and said, "Pick whatever you want."
That was not what Ruan Mian meant. Originally, the jade bracelet was given to her by Mo Yan, but now it was thrown away by the emperor casually. The girl felt guilty and dared not face the imperial master in the future.
What should I do?
Her fingertips, more tender than scallions, timidly hooked the fabric of the man's cuffs, and she pursed her moist lips.
"Your Majesty, I don't want these valuables. Can you return the bracelet to me?"
At least the original item should be returned to Mo Yan.
But the man misunderstood. Why did she only accept gifts from others? Were these pearls and jade ornaments not as good as a broken bracelet?
"no."
The girl lowered her head and didn't speak for a long time.
When Lou Che lifted her face, he found that the girl's face was pale. She was frightened to tears by his gloomy tone, and the corners of her eyes were soft and red.
The man wiped her eyes with the softest silk handkerchief, frowned, and sighed silently.
"Forget it, I won't force you, don't be afraid, Mianmian."
How could he bear to see the girl cry? Every drop of salty tears was like a stone hitting the man's calm heart, causing endless ripples and easily disturbing his emotions.
Deep in the dark dungeon, there is no sunlight all year round, and it is so cold that it makes people's hair stand on end.
Faintly, one could hear the sound of the whip hitting flesh.
Each one is heavier than the last.
The young man hanging in the air was no longer recognizable as a human. His white inner garment was torn to pieces, and his skin, which was printed with the wolf totem, was deeply beaten with bloody marks.
The boy's head fell down weakly, and his loose hair covered his cracked lips.
Because his arms were tied with ropes, he would not fall even if he passed out.
The jailer brought a basin of cold water and poured it on his face, "Hey, wake up, are you dead?"
The other man looked at him and gasped.
I quickly put my finger under the nose to feel if he was still breathing.
"Fortunately, it was just dizziness."
Qi Wuyuan's plan was exposed. He had originally planned to secretly recruit soldiers in the capital, train an elite force, and attack the imperial city directly from the inside.
Unexpectedly, Lou Che had been watching him the whole time.
The emperor, who appeared weak but was actually very thoughtful, never trusted any of them from Mobei.
The jailer looked back and quickly bowed.
"Your Majesty, I have already given him three thousand lashes as you commanded, but he still refuses to reveal where his weapons are hidden."
Aisha ran to her injured brother with tears in her eyes, and the clean hem of her skirt was stained.
"Wu Yuan, just tell them, if you continue like this, you will be beaten to death."
The young man struggled to open his heavy eyes and glanced at Lou Che who was standing with his hands behind his back.
The corners of his lips on his haggard face curled up, revealing an extremely contemptuous smile.
"Beg me, and I'll tell you!"
The jailer next to him turned pale, walked over and slapped him hard, and blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth.
"How dare you! How do you speak to His Majesty?!"
Qi Wuyuan grinned and spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, "Bah, you are worthy of being the emperor?"
Seeing that the boy's words were becoming more and more outrageous, Elsa hurriedly covered her brother's mouth and winked at him desperately.
"Wuyuan, just listen to your sister, okay?"
Perhaps the woman's expression was too sad, and the hairpin slipped and fell to the ground.
Her hair was disheveled, and she had completely lost the grace of a princess.
His eyes darkened and he stopped talking back. He pursed his dry lower lip tightly and stared at Lou Che.
"Your Majesty, Wuyuan is just stubborn. Please wait a little longer..."
Tears couldn't stop flowing from Aisha's eyes, and she felt sorry for her brother suffering like this.
The man in the yellow robe stood in the shadows and didn't come over because he thought it was dirty.
"As soon as possible. My patience is running out, and perhaps I will have to let you two meet in the underworld together."
The woman took out the water she had brought and fed it to the weak boy. He swallowed it hurriedly, and the excess water flowed down his collar.
"Wuyuan, drink slowly, my sister brought a lot."
There was an unconcealable sob and heartache in her voice. While feeding him, she used her other hand to wipe away the dirty blood on the boy's face.
"Please tell His Majesty everything, please? I beg you..."
Qi Wuyuan was silent for a while, lowered his eyelashes, and finally spoke word by word.
"All my privately hidden weapons are in the backyard of the Yunlai Inn in the west of the city."
After he finished speaking, the young man lowered his head dejectedly.
Everything is gone, all gone.
