While Baili Cang was cursing, he did not care about whether his curses would be heard by the guards or the guards outside the hall.
It was fine if he was cursing ordinary people, but those guards wouldn't do anything to him.
However, he was cursing the Emperor of Bright Moon Kingdom right now. If the guards heard his words, they would definitely take out their long whips and teach him a lesson.
The guards who were patrolling in the Sherry tower didn't care about whether the prison was safe or not. They didn't care about the prisoners' food and shelter. Naturally the job of punishing the prisoners was in the hands of the guards.
However, Baili Cang stood behind the prison door and shouted at them so loudly on purpose. It was obvious that he did this frequently.
Chu Yunge shifted her gaze down, looking at Baili Cang's hands that were holding onto the wooden pillar. Seeing that his hands were still fair, and his bones were distinct, and his wrists that had fallen down on his sleeves were also extremely smooth, it could be seen that he was not usually beaten and scolded by the prison guards.
Perhaps it was because his identity was something special and respectful, or perhaps Baili Lan knew that he had let down his big brother, so he felt guilty. Naturally, he would relax his control over Baili Cang in other areas.
However, although Baili Cang would not be scolded by the guards, he still cursed and shouted to his heart's content. But, she and Feng Yi were afraid!
She and Feng Yi had snuck out from the Third Floor secretly. If she got Baili Cang to shout loudly at the top of her lungs, she might attract more guards and it would become troublesome.
"Enough, enough, Mister. No need to scold anymore. I know that Baili Lan is really something." Chu Yunge was truly afraid of such high-pitched shouts, and immediately reached her hand inside the fences. She continuously grabbed at the door, and continuously berated Baili Cang as she advised: "That Baili Lan is indeed an animal, an animal! She didn't even spare her own brother and persecuted those ministers. She deserved to die! But Sir, you can't scold anymore. We are well aware of Baili Lan's morals, and we also know that you were imprisoned due to injustice, that's why we came to save you! "
"You two evil people, stop lying to me, I know you were sent by Baili Lan!" Baili Cang's bony fingers firmly gripped onto the door of the prison, as he shot a fierce gaze at Chu Yunge.
"Really, no, sir. Think about it, the reason why Baili Lan sent people to disguise yourself as your beloved concubine was because you still had something that Baili Lan needed at that time. Of course he would use any means possible to obtain the Murong Dynasty's treasure map. But after so many years, the map in the treasure box must have been tricked by Baili Lan right? "Since he's already got what he wants, why should he go through so much trouble to get two people to come and trick you?"
Chu Yunge looked at Baili Cang, and bitterly explained: "To put it bluntly, you are now a prisoner, with no money, no power, and no authority. What else do you have that is worth Baili Lan spending time for, to continue sending people to get at you?"
"You …" Baili Cang glared at Chu Yunge, as though she still wanted to curse him. Her eyes were still filled with suspicion, but she was at a loss for words.
It was true that he had been locked in the sariras for so many years, with wealth and authority. Whatever he wanted was nothing, and what more did Baili Lan want to swindle from him?
"Think about it carefully. Am I right?" Seeing his hesitant expression, Chu Yunge knew that he was starting to doubt himself.
Feng Yi added from the side, "Your Highness, you have been imprisoned here for so many years, but now, Baili Lan is the ruler of a nation with great authority. Even if he wanted to show off his might to you, it was only when he had just ascended the throne in the past, and was unable to contain his joy, that was why he repeatedly showed off his status. And right now, I'm afraid he doesn't have the mood or the time to do so. "
"Then the two of you …" Baili Cang's face stiffened, as if Feng Yi's words hit the mark. A look of extreme anger flashed across his face before he spoke, "Then why did the two of you come here for? I don't believe that there are any good people in this world who would pity me or ask me for help. It's all a joke. Right now, I am only a prisoner. I no longer have money by my side, and I don't have a hanger-on for strategists, so what can I do to help you all? "
"Crown Prince, you have been imprisoned here for many years. Although you have read a few books on history, those books only record the events of the past. Naturally, you will not know what the situation outside is like. And now, with the current unstable situation, the situation of the three kingdoms was bound to change greatly! That's why Feng Yi managed to come up with a plan to welcome the crown prince out and discuss the major matters of the world with us to save the lives of everyone. " Feng Yi spoke with seriousness, caution and respect.
"A major change?" Baili Cang, who was standing behind the prison door, puzzledly frowned.
"Baili Lan is your brother too, I believe you have seen him before, Your Highness." "Ever since Baili Lan ascended to the throne, his political ambitions had long ago ceased to be a part of the rules and regulations, and he was no longer involved with the matters of stabilizing the land and the land."
"What do you mean?" Baili Cang became even more doubtful, and took the initiative to walk over to Feng Yi, in hopes of finding out what exactly happened.
"To be honest, ever since Baili Lan claimed himself as emperor, he started to increase the exorbitant taxes on Bright Moon Kingdom. He also continued to refine iron and steel, with the intention of producing a large amount of weapons. Not only had he done all this, he had also been involved with the notorious evil cult 'Worryfree Hall' in the martial arts world. He had allied with the Lord of Worryfree Hall and wanted to start a war to annex the three nations. However, this sort of situation had existed for hundreds of years already. The citizens of the three kingdoms trade with each other, the border towns have always been caravans, they have always been at peace with each other, the people have long been used to living such a stable life. But if Baili Lan took the initiative to start a war, and teamed up with Worryfree Hall to start a war with the other two nations, Crown Prince, who do you think would be the first to suffer? "
"Naturally, it's the commoners."
"The Crown Prince is right. If Baili Lan instigated this war, it would mean that the world would be annihilated. At that time, there would be piles of bones, and rivers of blood. Moreover, Bright Moon Kingdom was the first to start a war, so in order to protect themselves, the other two nations would definitely join hands to fight, and Kang City naturally would not stay out of it, so they would definitely participate. At that time, how much chance would Baili Lan have in joining forces with the evil sects to fight against the other two nations? Let alone who won and lost in the end, there were only people who had good days ahead of them in the Bright Moon Kingdom. Killing one thousand enemies will result in eight hundred deaths. Since war has always been like this, you, crown prince, have also read a lot of the written challenge notes, so you are naturally aware of this. Could it be that the Crown Prince was willing to see the citizens of his own country fall into the fire of water and water?
"This …"
Baili Cang's brows revealed a hint of hesitation. Just now, when he heard that the entire world was going to be annihilated, Baili Cang did not have an obvious expression.
But when they heard that their own Bright Moon Kingdom citizens would be affected, the expression on their faces immediately changed.
As expected, people all went for their own people, Baili Cang was no exception.
But even though Baili Cang's expression changed, he did not directly state his stance.
Feng Yi saw that he was still hesitating, and continued to speak: "Crown Prince, you have been raised to be the emperor of a country since you were young. This country, was also a country where you held hope in. Could it be that you have the heart to bear watching the citizens of your own country die and even perish because of Baili Lan's greedy decision? "
"I …" Baili Cang's eyes were clearly tangled up. After struggling for a while, he turned his head away and looked in another direction, and said softly, "All the people in the world, all the citizens of Dawn, even if they are the citizens of Bright Moon Kingdom are in trouble, what does all this have to do with me? I am no longer the crown prince, nor am I the current emperor. No one cares if I was sent to jail due to injustice back then, so why would I be sad and distressed because of people that I do not even know? "
"Crown Prince's words are wrong!" Feng Yi immediately retorted, "Back then, you were unjustly accused, and the food advisors under your tutelage, didn't they also come up with some ideas to save you? What do you think is the reason? Was it really just because Minister Gu had interfered with his words and actions? No! It was because those three ministers had watched you grow up and understood your character, that they wanted to help you turn the tables on the late emperor, and that was how Baili Lan killed them!
The first thing Baili Lan did after he ascended the throne was to find out the wrongdoings of Minister Gu and cover his face with it. In the end, he was imprisoned by the State Supervisor Temple and his family was executed. As for the strategists in your Eastern Palace, they took great pains to save you. In the end, they all died one by one at the hands of the death soldiers trained by Baili Lan.
After your accident, your master and friends did everything they could to save you. It was just that they did not succeed. As for the citizens in the city, they were also worried about the crown prince's situation. It was a pity that they didn't care about the crown prince's reputation, so how could they cause any trouble? As for the people outside the Bright Moon City, they had no idea about this. When something happens to you, it concerns the royal family with your physique. The royal family would naturally do their best to cover it up, and those who are aware of this matter will only talk about it after they leave the Bright Moon Kingdom.
There are quite a few people who have helped you and quite a few who are worried about you. You cannot deny the efforts that they made just because they did not save you back then. "
"I …" Baili Cang's face was already frozen. After being stunned for a long while, he then frowned, and revealed a painful expression, and said while choking in his throat, "This is all because I was weak back then, and did not listen to my master's advice to make the first move. I thought that being able to do things without any shame was enough to get away with it, but who would have thought, I was still harmed by that bastard Baili Lan! I am the one who has let down my master, who has let down those who support me. "
"Don't be too sad, crown prince. Your master and the few ministers that led you are currently imprisoned within the State Supervisor Temple. I am locked in the same place with you. It's just that you are being held here and don't know about these matters. " Feng Yi advised sincerely, "As long as the crown prince is willing to cooperate with us, we can rescue the crown prince out. We can give you freedom, and leave this damned place! Now that everything is in place, I'll have to wait for you to agree! It's just that I don't know if you're willing to cooperate? "
