Outside Nan'an City, in a dilapidated and deserted mountain village.
When Emperor Chu woke up, he saw not only Zong Zheng Xingyao with his hands and feet tied, but also his fourth son Zong Zheng Wuxie who was supposed to be imprisoned in the Sky Prison.
There was intense emotion in his eyes, but now all three of them had Seb on their lips, so no one could say anything.
The Emperor of Chu was so angry that his chest heaved violently and he rolled his eyes. After a while, he could no longer shout and could only slowly calm down.
Just as he calmed down, the door creaked open.
Li Qingluo, dressed in men's clothes and with his face covered, walked in.
When the Emperor of Chu saw her, he immediately started struggling again with a "mmmmm" sound.
However, Li Qingluo didn't even look at him, but walked straight towards Zong Zheng Xingyao.
He took out the gag from her mouth and handed the water bag to her.
"Drink water."
"Such a delicate princess, I don't want you to die of thirst."
She deliberately lowered her voice, and because she was wearing men's clothing, it was difficult to tell whether she was a man or a woman.
Zong Zheng Xingyao glared at her angrily, "I won't drink! Release my father first, or I'll die in front of you!"
Li Qingluo: "Oh, that really scared me."
"He is a tyrant, yet he has a daughter as filial as you. God is truly unfair."
Zong Zheng Xingyao continued to cry out with tears in his eyes, "You lunatics! If it weren't for the Nangong clan setting fire to my father's secret room that day, you traitors wouldn't have had the opportunity to kidnap my father!"
"Of course I won't stand by and watch you harm my father. Even if I'm powerless to save him, don't even think about touching a hair on my father's head!"
Li Qingluo winked hard at Zong Zheng Xingyao.
Eye contact: I’ve sung it.
Zong Zheng Xingyao's face froze, and he quickly changed his tone: "Even if you want to do something, come at me first if you have the guts!"
Li Qing curled the corners of her lips under the veil.
"Okay, then how about letting you, a princess of noble status, become the wife of our rebel army?"
"Then, use this tyrant to exchange for the country's treasury!"
"You should prepare well! We will get married tonight at the end of the night!"
After saying that, Li Qingluo stood up and prepared to go out.
Seeing that Emperor Chu had woken up, he just smiled coldly.
As for Zong Zheng Wuxie, she didn't even glance at him.
She walked away decisively.
The Emperor of Chu and Zong Zheng Wuxie were shouting in their hearts: Drink water! They want to drink water too!
Zong Zheng Xingyao looked at Emperor Chu with red eyes.
"Father, I am an unfilial daughter... When I ran into these people in the palace and they wanted to take you away, I was powerless to stop them. I did nothing and failed to save you."
As he spoke, Zong Zheng Xingyao shed a few tears.
The Emperor of Chu let out a "Pooh" sound.
Finally, he managed to spit out the cloth ball that was no longer too tight in his mouth.
He retched twice before shouting hoarsely, "What the hell is going on?!"
"Where am I now?"
"And what's going on with the fourth brother?"
"And you, Yao'er. I clearly saw you talking to the Nangong clan while I was half asleep and half awake... Yao'er, please don't be in cahoots with them to deceive father."
Emperor Chu narrowed his eyes and stared at Zong Zheng Xingyao with a very cold look.
If it were in the past, Zong Zheng Xingyao would have been really frightened by his gaze and might have told him everything.
But she had experienced some big scenes in the past two days, and was also given some emergency training by Nangong Qingluo, so she could bear this little bit of turmoil in her heart.
Naturally, I was able to suppress my fear and act like I wasn't that afraid.
Zong Zheng Xingyao: "Nangong clan?"
She was in tears and looked surprised, "Father, no."
"Yao'er only saw those people bringing you out from near the rockery. I didn't see any Nangong clan members."
"Father, they said that the Nangong family set fire to your study. Is that true?"
"Could she have fainted somewhere, and a rebel wanted to kidnap you, so they knocked you out and took you away?"
"Father, are you having a nightmare again? It's all real now, Father!"
Hearing Zong Zheng Xingyao calling "Father" over and over again, Li Qingluo, who was listening openly outside the door, sighed inwardly.
This seventh princess is really a talented person who can bend and stretch, sing and dance.
Wouldn’t this confuse the Emperor of Chu?
Sure enough, the Emperor of Chu shook his still dazed head and really believed what Zong Zheng Xingyao said.
Zong Zheng Wuxie, who was standing by, tried to move the root of his tongue which was being pressed down so hard.
However, after retching several times, he was unable to spit out the large piece of cloth.
Zong Zheng Wuxie looked dejected. How could he be even worse than that old Emperor Chu?
Zong Zheng Xingyao sobbed and then looked at Zong Zheng Wuxie and said, "As for the Fourth Brother, I don't know what's going on."
"As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw that he was here too."
"Fourth Brother, aren't you in the Heavenly Prison? Did you escape?"
Zong Zheng Wuxie: Who escaped from prison and ran to the den of traitors?!?
He smiled coldly in his heart, but his mouth was blocked tightly, so he naturally couldn't explain.
So I closed my eyes and simply didn't bother to explain.
At this moment, a voice came from outside. It was Li Qingluo's deliberately low voice: "Has the Prince Qin's Mansion replied?"
Sha Er replied, "My lord, there is no movement."
Li Qingluo sneered, "This tyrant loves to kill people. He has killed more than a dozen brothers, and now only the King of Qin is left."
"The King of Qin knew his brother was kidnapped, yet he didn't come to rescue him?"
"We just asked him to prepare 100,000 taels of gold. How could he, the King of Qin, not be able to come up with it?"
