Chapter 74 Make Him Live a Life Worse Than Death
Mingxi's eyelashes drooped slightly, and her black feather-like eyelashes trembled slightly.
"I want to..." His ears flushed slightly when he said this word.
"Who is Qi Yue?"
Mingxi's eyes were slightly stunned.
When he looked up, he saw Lin Zhaoyue calmly picking up the small jade fan beside her and admiring it leisurely.
It seems that the question just asked was also very casual.
"And how did you end up in his hands?"
She continued to ask, with a cold and lazy tone.
[I know this! (Raises hand) They say Mingxi was spotted on the black market by someone from the Myriad Beasts Nation, bought and brought back! Then, the royal family took a fancy to her and presented her to the Xia Nation as a gift!]
[The setting seems to say that Mingxi was injured before, so he couldn't escape the black market. Later, he met the royal family of the Myriad Beasts Kingdom, who could tame beasts. They suppressed Mingxi a little bit and fed him medicine, so he couldn't escape either.]
[Originally, he was supposed to acknowledge the heroine as his master at the palace banquet, but he didn't expect the princess to accept him as her hehehe...]
Lin Zhaoyue had also seen what they said about the background of Mingxi's appearance, but she heard it from Mingxi herself.
Mingxi was silent for a moment.
When Lin Zhaoyue thought Mingxi was not going to speak.
His voice slowly rang out.
"Ten years ago, the Jiao Nation was divided up by the surrounding nations. The entire nation was enslaved and became playthings of the powerful. I escaped."
Lin Zhaoyue turned her gaze towards him.
"But we have obvious mermaid features, so I was quickly recognized. I was caught by human traffickers and sold on the black market... For the next few years, I was resold on the black market until I met someone from the Ten Thousand Beasts Kingdom. They bought me and presented me to the monarch of the Ten Thousand Beasts Kingdom. They also used me as a gift to establish friendship between the Ten Thousand Beasts Kingdom and the Xia Dynasty."
"The ancestors of the mermaid tribe were half-beasts. The royal family of the Myriad Beasts Kingdom suppressed me and fed me a kind of medicine. Or rather... it was a kind of Gu. They use it to tame ferocious beasts. They control the mother Gu, and the child Gu remains in my body. If I disobey, they can control the child Gu to devour and bite my internal organs."
He frowned slightly, "As for Qi Yue... I don't actually know who he is... but I sensed that when he used the beast taming technique, he was suppressing me a bit."
After he finished speaking, he stared at Lin Zhaoyue without blinking, "That's all I know..."
[Poor Mingxi, come here and let your sister hug you...]
[Princess, don't trust this brat completely. I remember that in the original story, he killed the employer who hired him. He deliberately stayed in the black market because it provided food and shelter, so he could recover from his injuries. He would go back when his employer died! Even if the current plot has changed, the original plot and character design will definitely not change!]
[I think you're overthinking it. Mingxi has no reason to lie to the princess. He's the one who wants to acknowledge her as his master!]
[That's right! Is it wrong for him to be a little scheming when he's so handsome? ? ]
The words above reminded her, and Lin Zhaoyue also became a little skeptical about Mingxi's words.
What he said should not be false.
But it may not be the whole picture.
However, Mingxi's words did confirm Qi Yue's identity.
"Do you still have the Gu in your body?" Lin Zhaoyue asked.
Mingxi nodded obediently and stretched out her hand, only to see something wriggling under her wrist, but it quickly disappeared.
Seeing this, Lin Zhaoyue's expression softened slightly. "I understand. I will find a way to remove this poison for you."
Mingxi's past reminded her of someone.
But when she thought of that person, she threw him out of her mind.
Ming Xi's lips curled up slightly, and her blue eyes looked at her without blinking, as bright as the stars in the night sky, "Your Highness the Princess is so nice..."
When saying this, Lin Zhaoyue did not notice the gleam hidden in Mingxi's eyes.
On the other side, when Pei Wanxing brought people to take Wen Qin and Fu Sheng away, the two of them refused to leave and insisted on going to Her Royal Highness the Princess to plead for mercy.
"I won't leave. I love Her Royal Highness the Princess. I won't leave."
"Me too! I'd rather be the princess's dog than leave here!
Pei Wanxing was silent.
She didn't want to take them away either.
But isn't this a necessary situation?
Besides.
Is it their turn to be the princess's dog?
Wen Qin and Fu Sheng had always admired Lin Zhaoyue, and after coming to the princess's mansion, they were never treated unfairly.
They were all waiting to climb into the princess's bed, so naturally they were reluctant to leave.
So the two of them cried and made a fuss, wanting to go to the princess to plead for mercy.
Finally, Pei Wanxing had no choice but to say, "Come back quietly later... You two are too conspicuous now. When the Princess's Mansion is well-stocked, I'll sneak you two back in."
【??? Hahahaha Pei Wanxing you are amazing!】
【Are you really a genius? 】
[You even secretly stuffed it back? Xiao Pei, you're really stubborn, hahahahaha]
[These two people have a miserable life. If the princess could not touch men, they might have been favored by her.]
[Don't even think about it. Do you think the villain is dead? ]
Pei Wanxing's words also successfully comforted Wen Qin and Fu Sheng.
The two were then reluctantly taken away by Pei Wanxing.
But when they left, the two were still crying, and while crying they expressed their heartfelt love for the princess.
It is so sad that it makes people cry.
Seeing this scene, Mu Ying suddenly felt.
It’s better to have fewer men in the princess’s mansion.
It’s scary to think about all the men in the yard fighting over her.
Feng Mian felt the same way and shivered unconsciously.
"Fear."
Mu Ying: “…Me too.
Privy Council, secret prison.
[Here I come, let me see the villain’s perspective]
[Although the villain's perspective is somewhat open, it's not open enough! Can you give more? It's not enough! ]
[It’s good enough to look at, I’m not picky if I can eat anything]
[The villain is such a delight to watch... Although Ming Xi is also pretty, I prefer the villain]
[Tsk tsk tsk… The villain’s waist is so big, I can’t even imagine how good the princess would look wearing it!]

"Sir, it has been signed."
Yinchuan handed over a signed indictment.
"He has admitted that it was Lu Chenzhou who ordered him to investigate you. He wanted to use your abuse of torture to extract confessions and harm officials. His goal was to impeach you and remove you from this position. Also, he wanted to investigate the divorce agreement."
Xiao Tingye took the indictment and signed it, saying that the charges he had signed were false.
But he deserves to die.
"Peel off the skin and throw it into Lu Chenzhou's yard." The casual tone was even more bloody and cruel.
Yinchuan nodded, "Yes."
Xiao Tingye took a towel from the side and wiped the blood on his hands that was stained when he just interrogated the prisoner.
"From now on, anyone who investigates the divorce agreement won't need to be left alive. Just like him, they'll all be skinned and returned to Lu Chenzhou."
His slow, measured tone seemed to be wrapped in a thin layer of ice. "I want him to know clearly that I was the one who did this. But he can't do anything about it, and he has no evidence. The divorce is already finalized, and he has nowhere to appeal, no one to seek justice. I want him to live, or even die."
