Chapter 144



"What crime has Doctor Sun committed?"

"The Crown Prince?" He pressed his head to the ground, as if seeking relief.

Nangong Anren appears to be kind and gentle, but only those who know him well know how cruel he truly is.

He won't kill people, but he will torture them to death, both mentally and physically.

"Dr. Sun, that's a serious matter. What crime have you committed?"

"However, I am very curious. Wasn't he supposed to be unable to wake up? Why did he end up in that abandoned courtyard?"

"This..." Doctor Sun was also puzzled. The medicine was too strong; he shouldn't have woken up yet, so how could he...?

Fortunately, they discovered it in time and caught the person, otherwise I would have...

"Your Highness, please forgive me; this was my oversight."

"You know my temperament, but considering that you have always served me diligently and without complaint, I will let you go!"

Hearing him say that, Dr. Sun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Get up!"

When he stood up, he realized that the back of his shirt was already soaked.

This moment felt like returning from hell.

"Has no one found him?" he asked.

"Ah Yue reports that Princess Ling Shuang has visited the abandoned courtyard!"

"Didn't find anything, did you?" Nangong Anren asked, frowning, his eyes seeming to be calculating something.

"Probably not!"

"Just in case, you should have A-Yue keep a close eye on her and report back immediately if anything happens."

"Why didn't the eldest prince just kill her?"

“First, the Prince of Anyang died in Lan Yi. Although there was a scapegoat, it would still cause criticism. If Princess Ling Shuang dies as well, it will definitely make the people of Ling Qi suspicious.”

"Your Highness need not worry. The reason why everyone was afraid of Lingqi in the past was because of the presence of Prince Anyang. Now that he is dead, Lingqi has no more formidable figures."

"That's true, but we still need to be cautious, after all, she is the Crown Prince's principal wife."

Then he changed the subject and asked, "Take some time to go to the imperial prison and see if that woman has revealed where the imperial edict is!"

"Yes, but there is something I am very curious about."

"I saw the woman in the prison that day, and she looks exactly like Murong Kui. Could there be a trick involved?"

"I am also very curious about this."

...

"Ah!!!" A scream came from inside the prison.

The constable was clutching his ear, which I had bitten so badly that it was bleeding profusely, and was rolling on the ground in pain.

"My ears, my ears!"

I was tied to instruments of torture, and they used all sorts of instruments on me until there wasn't a single patch of my skin left intact.

My skin was torn and bleeding profusely everywhere. Every time I moved a finger, the pain made me break out in a cold sweat.

"You stinking woman!!"

"I will tear you to pieces!"

As they spoke, they lashed my braid hard again, causing me to faint from the pain several times, only to be revived by them splashing cold water on me.

"Why won't she talk?" Murong Kui stood outside the cell door, looking at me with a smug smile.

He looked like a victor.

"Don't you love Ye Lisheng very much? Why don't you go die with him?"

"Heh!" I chuckled dismissively. "Don't you love him too?"

"But I forgot that even though you and I look alike, and even though you took my place later, he still doesn't love you."

"Don't you think you're pathetic or not?"

"Slap!!!" Murong Kui angrily swung her braid across my face.

"Ah!" I screamed in pain.

A bloody gash immediately appeared on her delicate skin, a shocking sight.

"You're about to die and you're still being stubborn. If you tell me where the imperial edict is, maybe I can give you a quick death."

"I don't know where the imperial edict is, and even if I did, I wouldn't tell you."

"Do you know why you can't receive love? Because you don't deserve love at all!"

"Beat her! Beat her hard! Keep beating her until she tells you where the imperial edict is!"

"yes!"

Murong Kui stumbled out the door, and even with the sunlight shining on her, she still felt extremely cold.

Everything I saw in the psychic mirror kept replaying in my mind.

He was willing to give up his own life to save the woman named Wangsheng.

Whether in the past life or the present, I was the one who suffered first, so why did he like her instead of me?

They all look exactly the same.

Why?

Why?

She was questioning him like a madwoman, but no one could answer her.

Suddenly she remembered what Wangqiaochuan had said.

"The Spirit Mirror can allow people to see their past and present lives, but it must never come into contact with the blood of the Flower Spirit, otherwise it will change the memories in the Spirit Mirror."

Suddenly, a wicked idea began to unfold in her mind as she smirked.

...

"Da da da!"

Two tall, dark brown horses galloped through the yellow sand, kicking up clouds of dust, with a black horse chasing after them.

"Eighth Prince".

"Eighth Prince!!"

"Young Master Yu!!"

"Stop right now!" Ling Ran shouted.

"No one can stop me from killing Murong Kui." Ye Xuanling said angrily, his face full of murderous intent, with clear tear tracks on his face.

"Eighth Prince, before you kill, make sure that person is either Murong Kui or Qiu Kui!"

Yu Shaoqing's words were like a wake-up call. Ye Xuanling stopped his horse and asked, "Who is the owner of the Spring Breeze Ten Mile Inn?"
