Chapter 321 Servant
After the old lady and Madam Chen were released, Zhu Huaizhen asked Tu Mi to find out more.
Ahem, this dungeon can’t trap Tu Mi, Tu Mi is just pretending to be trapped.
As Zhu Huaizhen expected, the old lady was busy with her illness and Mrs. Chen was busy with her fear. No one was making trouble and everyone was keeping quiet.
Zhu Huaizhen felt relieved and continued to listen to the opera.
Princess Ronghua Zhu Huaizhen was seen lying on a beauty couch surrounded by black lacquer and gold-painted scrolls of poetry and paintings, holding a round fan with a mahogany handle embroidered with pomegranates, cats and butterflies, moving it back and forth, her posture as lazy as a Persian cat.
Orioles chirp at dawn in the jade trees of Jinling, flowers bloom early in the Qinhuai waterside pavilions. Who knew the ice would melt so easily? I watched him build his red mansion, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his mansion collapse. Here, amidst the mossy, blue tiles, I once slept in a dreamlike state; I've witnessed fifty years of rise and fall. No one in Wuyi Lane is surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at Mochou Lake, and owls roost on Phoenix Terrace. Dreams of the ruined mountains are the most real, the old land hard to lose. I don't believe this map is changing manuscripts. I'll compose a lament for Jiangnan, and sing it until I grow old.
Her Highness never tires of listening to "Peach Blossom Fan" over and over again.
"Your Highness, when will you rescue Prince Chen?" Tu Mi asked in a low voice.
No matter how comfortable this dungeon is, it is still a dungeon and not as comfortable as being outside.
"Tu Mi, why are you so anxious? Chen Mingan has to repay the debt of love he owes me." Zhu Huaizhen held up his rosy cheeks, smiling like a flower, and blinking his grape eyes.
Well, her Highness is really very vengeful.
However, Tu Mi heard that Chen Ming'an, the prince of Duke Dingguo's mansion, was tortured severely but refused to admit that Duke Dingguo was guilty of treason and requested a joint trial by the three courts.
Tsk tsk, that bloody scene, Tu Mi felt it was cruel at just one glance.
Sure enough, three days later, Chen Mingan's servant came to Zhu Huaizhen for help.
"Princess Ronghua, please save my prince. He can't hold on any longer..." The servant choked with sobs, his eyes red.
"How can you not hold on?" Zhu Huaizhen curled his lips and rolled his eyes.
If she had not made a deal with Princess Pingyang, Zhu Huaizhen would have planned to watch him die without helping.
From the moment the Southern Wu was destroyed, Zhu Huaizhen had no feelings for Chen Ming'an.
Moreover, the death of her mother, Concubine Xue, was more or less related to Chen Mingan.
She did not retaliate against Chen Mingan, which showed her great understanding of the bigger picture.
"My prince is covered in blood, without a single piece of healthy flesh. He couldn't sleep all night because of the pain. Princess Ronghua, I know that there are too many misunderstandings between you and my prince, and you don't want to save my prince. But my prince has never thought of hurting you. Can you be soft-hearted for once?" The servant cried bitterly and kowtowed continuously.
"He needs to save himself." Zhu Huaizhen sighed softly.
Zhu Huaizhen discovered that bystanders can see things more clearly than those involved.
Chen Ming'an never thought that what Emperor Xuan of Yan wanted was not for Chen Ming'an to admit that Duke Dingguo was guilty of treason, but for Chen Ming'an to change direction and slander Princess Pingyang.
Back then, Princess Pingyang fought for the throne for Emperor Xuan of Yan and gained a group of loyal followers.
Emperor Xuan of Yan could not move these loyal followers, so he could only suppress Princess Pingyang's achievements.
"How about this, you ask your son to give in and come to me when he is not tortured." Zhu Huaizhen rubbed his forehead.
"Princess Ronghua, I'm afraid my prince doesn't dare to see you." The servant looked embarrassed.
"Then we will never meet again. Don't delay the sweet love between me and Ali." Zhu Huaizhen was a little amused.
After hearing this, the servant's face changed immediately and he turned back immediately.
The servant understood his young master's thoughts. He fell in love with Princess Ronghua belatedly. He was both resentful and reluctant to let go. What he could not tolerate the most was the provocation of Lou Li, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
