"Let me out …" I want to see my royal brother! " Duan Mu Yan continued to desperately shake the iron bars. Even though the jailer had denied it, her heart was still burning as though it was tormented by fire. He was in so much pain that he wished she were dead!
"Qi Wangfei, don't struggle anymore. The emperor has the final say on whether or not to release you. We're just guards and we don't have the authority. You'd better save your strength." Prison guard helplessly spoke.
"Good …" If I don't go out, tell me, what happened to the First Prince? "Please …" Tears streaming down her face, Duan Muyan was half-kneeling on the ground as she pleaded in an almost imploring manner.
"Qi Wangfei, quickly get up. We can't afford to receive such a great gift from you. Actually …" Prison guard A frowned as he looked at prison guard B.
"Actually, the First Prince … He committed suicide out of guilt. This was something that Ji Guan and I witnessed personally. Even if we didn't tell you, you would have found out sooner or later. It's just that … "You will never be able to come back from the dead. My condolences …" Prison guard B opened his mouth and pulled the armor away.
"Suicide... will not... Royal brother won't leave me alone like this … Why did you lie to me... Am I not miserable enough? Why did you make such a joke... Royal brother … Where are you... Mu Yan missed you so much … Why... "Why did they say you were dead …" Tears rolled down her cheeks like pearls with their strings cut. Duan Mu Yan tightly gripped the iron bars as she powerlessly leaned on them. In the next moment, Duan Moyan howled like a madman.
"Let me out …" "Please let me out, I want to see my royal brother …"
Outside the cell, not long after the two guards left, Xiao Jin Feng had already reached the Sky Prison.
"Mu Yan... What happened to Duan Mu Yan? " Before Xiao Jin Feng entered the cell, he heard Duan Mu Yan's heart-wrenching howls and immediately went forward to grab the jailer.
"Return... Reporting to the Qi King, Qi Wangfei, she … "She just knew that the First Prince committed suicide by fearing his crimes, so …" The guard spoke in a trembling voice.
"How did she know that at the Sky Prison?! "Humph!" Xiao Jin Feng threw the prison guard armor on the ground and quickly entered the Sky Prison.
"Duan Mu Yan … You... Are you all right? " The moment he saw Duan Mu Yan's face filled with tears, Xiao Jin Feng felt his heart stop. He had never seen her so weak.
"Qi King …" King Qi, let me out! I beg you to let me out! I want to see my royal brother! They say that my royal brother is dead, that's not true. My royal brother won't leave me alone … Let me out... "Please …" Duan Mu Yan excitedly said, looking at Xiao Jin Feng with pleading eyes!
Looking at Duan Mu Yan's pale face, it was the first time that Xiao Jin Feng did not hesitate as he rushed towards the prison cell. At this moment, Su Jin Xiu quickly took a step forward to stop Xiao Jin Feng.
"Your Highness, you absolutely cannot. The secondary wife is a prisoner now, without the orders, no one can let her go. If you rashly let her go, it would be the equivalent of a prison break. Even if you don't think for the Duke Xiao Palace, you must think for the Young Miss. If it was the Young Miss, she definitely wouldn't let you use your own life to take the risk! " Su Jin Xiu tightly pulled on Xiao Jin Feng's sleeves and choked with sobs.
At this moment, Xiao Lingfeng suddenly stopped his footsteps. He was astonished at his own actions. Just because of a few words from Duan Mu Yan, he had already reached the point of disregarding his own safety? The consequences of opening the cell were severe, to the point that he did not even consider it!
Seeing that Xiao Lingfeng was no longer rushing forward, Su Jin Xiu turned her gaze towards Duan Mu Yan.
"My concubine, don't blame the Prince for opening this prison door today, then the entire Prince's estate will be buried with the First Prince tomorrow. If it was my Young Miss who was in this prison, she definitely wouldn't put the Prince in such an awkward position and let you open the door!" Su Jin Xiu was about to move forward, but was stopped by Xiao Jin Feng.
"You can't go! "Shi Rou wouldn't want anything to happen to you either …" At the moment when Xiao Jingfeng stopped Su Jin's embroidery, Duan Muyan's eyes turned red as she furiously stared at the man and woman before her.
"Xiao Jingfeng! Su Jin Xiu! You can have love wherever you want, but please leave! I, Duan Muyan, do not beg for your help, but you guys are going too far by throwing stones into the well at a time like this! Someone … Someone let me out … " At this moment, she only wanted to see her royal brother. As long as she didn't see him with her own eyes, she wouldn't believe that her royal brother would abandon her and leave on his own.
At this moment, Xiao Yuxuan heard the sound and arrived. He immediately ran to his cell, tears streaming down his face.
"Mu Yan! What's the matter with you? What happened? " Xiao Yuxuan looked nervously at Duan Mu Yan. When her gaze swept across Xiao Jin Feng, it suddenly turned cold!
"It's you guys?! Haven't you harmed Mu Yan enough? "She's already in prison, what else do you want?!" Xiao Yuxuan spoke harshly, but in the next instant, she was pulled to her side by Duan Mu Yan.
"Yu Xuan, tell me, how is royal brother? They say that their royal brother is dead, but I don't believe it. They are lying to me, and in this world, I only believe in you! Yu Xuan, please tell me, what did royal brother do … Did he commit suicide? "Tell me …" Duan Moyan tightly gripped onto Xiao Yuxuan's sleeves as she looked at the man before her with teary eyes.
"Mu Yan... I... I'm sorry, I didn't protect Jing Yang well … "He …" Without waiting for Xiao Yuxuan to finish speaking, Duan Mu Yan let go of Xiao Yuxuan's arm and staggered back. Her eyes were filled with fear as tears gushed out like a spring. She kept shaking her head, allowing the tears to flow down her face.
Will not... You lied to me... Jade Xuan... Royal brother will be fine... Is Wrong... Why would he commit suicide? How could he kill himself? He won't leave me alone! Royal brother … "Ahh!" "Duan Moyan knelt on the ground, crying out in agony. Her tears were streaming down her face, her heart felt like it was about to break!
"Mu Yan... Don't be like this. Jing Yang's spirit in heaven wouldn't want to see you torture yourself like this. Mu Yan … Sorry... It's my fault... "It's all my fault …" Xiao Yuxuan's eyes reddened as she squatted down, blaming herself for her actions. She gripped the iron bars tightly.
"No …" You're all lying to me! I want to see my royal brother! Jade Xuan... Take me back to the palace! "Take me away!" Duan Moyan suddenly rose to her feet and then shot toward Xiao Yuxuan, her voice shrill and shrill.
"Good …" I'll take you away! "I'll bring you to see Jing Yang …." Xiao Yuxuan ruthlessly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Just as he was about to open the door, he was stopped by Xiao Jingfeng.
"Yuxuan, you can't do this. If you let …"
"Xiao Jingfeng!" Just as Xiao Jin Feng was about to stop Xiao Yu Xuan, Duan Mu Yan suddenly roared out. When Xiao Jin Feng heard this, he turned his head and saw that Duan Mu Yan's eyes, which were as cold as icicles, were fiercely staring at him. He had never seen Duan Mu Yan like this before, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
"Dao of imperial edict …" At this moment, Duan Xingyi's appearance had broken this deadlock. Looking at Xiao Yuxuan and Xiao Jingfeng, Duan Xingyi secretly let out a long breath. No matter what, he was still the one who released Duan Mu Yan in the end!
"Duan Mu Yan shall accept the decree!" Following the submission of the heavens and the decree of the emperor, the case of Qi Wangfei murdering the maid, Qiu Yue, had insufficient evidence. "This …" As Duan Xingyi spoke, he glanced at the jailer at the side. The guard rushed to the cell and opened the door.
The moment the door was opened, Duan Mu Yan was knocked out of the cell. She almost fell down, but was helped to her feet by Duan Xingyi.
"Third Sister, please take the imperial edict. Since the Qi King has arrived, please take the third princess away from this place …" Before Duan Xingyi could finish his words, he was pulled back by Duan Mu Yan.
"Tell me, is royal brother really dead? Where is he? I want to see him! "Hurry up and tell me …" Duan Muyan seemed to be on the verge of howling as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Speechless, Duan Xingyi abruptly raised his eyes to look at Xiao Lingfeng and the other two. He didn't expect the news to reach Duan Moyan so quickly.
"Mu Yan …" Xiao Yuxuan really wanted to go up and comfort his, but at this moment, what kind of comforting words could calm Duan Mu Yan down?
"Third Royal Sis, you should return to the Xiao Duke Palace to rest first. Tomorrow, Royal Father will personally send someone to pick you up … The Qi King! " Looking at Duan Muyan's tear-stained face, Duan Xingyi fiercely choked and coldly spoke. He couldn't allow his to enter the palace today. He had to successfully become the crown prince.
"You're all lying to me! Good... You won't tell me! I'll go myself! " Just as Duan Muyan was about to turn around and leave the cell, Duan Xingyi suddenly struck the back of her neck with her palm.
"Mu Yan!" Xiao Yuxuan exclaimed in astonishment. Just as he was about to step forward, he saw Duan Xingyi carry Duan Mu Yan by the waist and walk in front of Xiao Jin Feng.
"Prince Qi, the imperial edict has been passed down. The third sister has been acquitted. I hope you won't hold this matter in your heart in the future. As for …" As for the matter with the First Prince, royal father will definitely personally send someone to fetch the Third Emperor Sis tomorrow. As for tonight, she was too agitated, so she hastily allowed her to enter the palace. The consequences are hard to predict. " Even though he was extremely reluctant, Duan Xingyi still handed the girl in his embrace over to Xiao Lingfeng.
"I understand …" "Farewell!" Xiao Jin Feng carefully grabbed Duan Mu Yan. Just as he was about to leave with Su Jin Xiu, he was stopped by Xiao Yu Xuan.
"Give Mu Yan to me!" Xiao Yuxuan's ice-cold voice carried a bone-piercing chill as she stood in front of Xiao Lingfeng. However, when she stretched out her hand, she was intercepted by Duan Xingyi.
"Prince Ping, the emperor has decreed that the three emperors should return to the Xiao manor first. Everything will be decided by the emperor. As for you, since Lord Tian's case has been resolved, it's time for you to return to the palace and be your Imperial Tutor, right?" At this moment, Xiao Lingfeng did not wish to have a direct confrontation with Xiao Yuxuan. Seeing Duan Xingyi helping him, he naturally took a detour and left!
"Mu Yan!" Xiao Yuxuan wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Duan Xingyi.
The biting cold wind whistled as it assaulted the silhouettes on the streets. Xiao Jin Feng subconsciously took off his long robe and draped it over Duan Mu Yan's body.
"Your Highness …" "Your servant still has a robe …" Su Jin Xiu saw this and hated Duan Ling Tian from the bottom of her heart. She never expected that Duan Mu Yan would come out of prison alive.
"Embroidery, This King cannot leave quickly. If I wake up …" Mu Yan, the consequences are unimaginable. You should go back first and carefully clean her room. Xiao Lingfeng spoke indifferently, his gaze never leaving Duan Moyan's lovely face.
"But …" "Your servant obeys …" Su Jin Xiu knew that Xiao Jin Feng wouldn't listen to her at all. Instead of making him upset, she might as well help Duan Mu Yan first. There would still be a long way to go in the future!
Looking at the woman in his arms, Xiao Jin Feng suddenly felt his heart ache. He didn't know when he had started to be unable to ignore this woman in front of him, but her joy, anger, and sorrow had already made him worry about her. Even if he denied that it had something to do with love, he was already deeply in love with her.
In the room, Xiao Lingfeng gently placed Duan Moyan on the bed and tucked her in. He had no intention of leaving.
