Yang Liang's hand reached out from the gap between the iron rod and grabbed my hand. His face was flushed with excitement as he said:
"Little Ling'Er, Little Ling'Er, you really are Little Ling'Er!"
My hand hurt from his grip, but I didn't struggle. I nodded over and over again with tears streaming down my face, unable to speak.
After a long while, Yang Liang suddenly lost my hand and took a few steps back.
"How can you come to such a dangerous place? Didn't you say that you were imprisoned by Yang Guang? How did he let you out? "
I was slightly stunned and choked with sobs.
"I'm not being held by Yang Guang, I'm just not being pampered. When will I tell you that I'm being held?"
Yang Liang raised his eyebrows. After rummaging for a long time, he took out a well-preserved piece of paper, handed it over, and said:
"Didn't you send me a message?"
I took it and looked at it. It did look like my handwriting, but I had never written this note before.
It was because Yang Guang knew that Yang Liang adored me, that he used this underhanded trick after losing the war in Big Sui County. He tricked Yang Liang into saying that I was being imprisoned and that my life was in danger, so how could Yang Liang sit still? Naturally, he had to sneak into the palace to save me.
His fingers trembled as he held the note. Hatred welled up in his heart and his tears fell like rain. He said:
"No, I didn't."
Yang Liang was stunned. Fang Xing realized that he had been tricked and immediately regretted it. He stomped his chest in anger, laughed at the sky, and said miserably:
"What a ruthless scheme!"
When I heard Yang Liang's miserable laughter, my heart burned even more. My heart felt as if it had been cut by a knife, so I asked again:
"Did you hear from me a few months ago?"
Yang Liang shook his head and said:
"No, I only received this letter a few days ago. I never expected that it was actually fake!"
I understood even more clearly that the carrier pigeon was probably captured by Yang Guang's men before it could even fly out of the capital, so on the night I sent the letter, Yang Guang rushed to find me to settle the score, saying that Yang Kuo and I had an affair, otherwise, based on Chen Ying's words alone, he wouldn't have acted so impulsively.
I wiped away my tears and said while enduring the pain:
"I was used by Yang Guang again."
Yang Liang also sighed and said regretfully:
"If I had known earlier, I would have risked my life to stop you from marrying him! If the Queen Mother was alive in heaven, I'm afraid she would be regretting it. "
I said tearfully,
"The fault lies not with you, this is not something you can stop." In his heart, he thought, even if it's just for my destiny, Yang Guang definitely won't let me go. In that situation, marrying Yang Guang was my only choice, not to mention, I was completely loyal to him back then.
Yang Liang was startled when he caught sight of the food box on the ground. He quickly said:
"Why haven't you been here for half a day? This is not a place to stay for long. Leave quickly and never come back. "
I was about to open my mouth when a voice came from the entrance of the cell:
"It's already too late!"
Turning around, he saw a flash of yellow striding towards us.
Yang Guang's face was gloomy, with a sneer hanging on his lips, he said:
"What a lovey pair!" "That's right, that letter was indeed written by us in imitation of the Empress's handwriting, but we don't mind the military. Fifth brother, you think too much."
Yang Liang's eyes were blood-red as he glared at Yang Guang. Yang Guang also stared coldly at Yang Liang. When I decided to go to the dungeon, I had already thought about it. So, I didn't panic.
"How can a queen of this world be a dog or a dog? Your Majesty has gone too far. "
Yang Guang's ice-cold gaze swept across my face and said:
"Empress? You still know you're the Queen? Why would a queen who acts as her mother's servant appear in a dungeon? "
I smirked and said mockingly:
"Then why would a monarch appear in a dungeon?"
Yang Guang was infuriated, and said angrily: "Are you still making trouble for no reason? Don't think that I don't dare to kill you! "We will never forgive anyone who betrayed us!"
With that, he glared at me, then at King Han with murderous intent.
I deeply regret in my heart. I shouldn't have angered him just now, but now I don't even have the chance to plead for mercy. I don't know why, but every time I face Yang Guang, I can't suppress the anger in my heart.
"Yes, I did betray you, but I did not betray Big Sui, I did not betray my royal father and mother!" Yang Liang wasn't afraid of Yang Guang's anger in the slightest, and berated him harshly, "You killed a king to seize his position, maimed your brothers and took over royal father's consort. I, Yang Liang, have failed to take your head. I deserve the title of ancestor of the Yang family, and I deserve millions of civilians! "
Yang Guang's face turned purple when he was in pain. He clenched his fists and kept silent, and only stared at Yang Liang with bone-deep hatred.
"Today, I've lost to your evil scheme. If you want to kill me, you can do as you please, but in the future, someone will take your life. Unfortunately, my Big Sui Family's foundation will be destroyed by your hands!" Yang Su had already made up his mind to die, so he wanted to use this last moment to denounce Yang Guang and vent his anger.
Yang Guang's face became darker and darker, his hand could not help but reach for the sword at his waist, and finally, under Yang Liang's curses, he could not hold it in any longer, he suddenly pulled out his sword and pointed it at Yang Liang's throat.
I was shocked and my heart immediately went cold. Could it be that Yang Guang was willing to personally kill his own brother?
The victor is the king and the loser is the bandit. Yang Liang faintly smiled and had long put his life on the line. He looked deeply at me before suddenly speaking in a gentle tone,
"Royal brother, since we are brothers in any case, now that the matters of the country have been thrown away, I will call you second brother. I just hope that after you kill me, no one else will be implicated.
Yang Guang coldly smiled as he looked at me. After hesitating for a while, he said,
"As for you, second brother, now that the tens of thousands of soldiers under you have survived, I will call you fifth brother again. I only ask you one thing, do you and the empress have any kind of relationship?"
After Yang Guang asked this question, the hand that held the sword trembled slightly, and beads of sweat began to slowly seep out from his forehead, as if he was extremely nervous.
Yang Liang glanced at me. His pair of deep and clear eyes were filled with tenderness. A few traces of a happy smile hung on his face as he said:
"Second brother is so fortunate to have such love and admiration for his royal sister-in-law. In the past, when her imperial sister-in-law hadn't married, she had asked her mother for permission. Her mother had said that as long as her imperial sister-in-law was willing, she could become the imperial concubine. Unfortunately, her imperial sister-in-law had refused at once. As for what happened today, her sister-in-law was even more innocent. She only heard that her disciple was imprisoned and felt sorry for him, so she came to visit. She had no other intentions. "
Yang Guang looked at me sideways and asked, "Really?"
I coldly laughed and said with ridicule:
"Since when has Your Majesty been concerned with chenqie's thoughts?" "Chenqie thinks that other than chenqie's fate, His Majesty would never have the slightest bit of attachment to her."
Yang Guang's face was a little awkward and a little disappointed. After a moment, he said:
"Yes, if not for Teacher Yuan's approval, I would have already let you off."
Yang Ke didn't know how to express his thoughts and just looked at me with a gloomy gaze. I smiled faintly, trying my best to be graceful and casual, but it emitted an endless coldness. I suddenly took out a dagger from my clothes and placed it by my throat.
Yang Guang and Yang Liang were shocked, and involuntarily shouted in unison: "No!"
My eyes stared straight at Yang Guang as I slowly opened my mouth, "Your Majesty, please release the Han emperor."
Yang Guang slightly hesitated, but immediately became serious, and said:
"Do you think I am a three year old child? Who would use their own life to threaten others? "
I exerted a little strength, and a thin line was cut into the sharp dagger. Blood dripped out from the wound, staining the dagger's blade red.
"Little Ling'Er, don't!" Ignoring Yang Guang's long sword, Yang Liang threw himself over to try and pull me, but even though he was in the cage, he couldn't reach me with his arms.
The long sword in Yang Guang's hand loosened, and a few traces of helplessness appeared on his face. There was even a few traces of hatred, as well as something that seemed to be neither resentment nor resentment, as he said:
"I have already stopped. Don't go crazy anymore!"
I smiled and said sorrowfully, "As long as Yang Liang stays in prison, His Majesty can take his life at any time. Chenqie will order His Majesty to spare Yang Liang's life and send him to the frontier, never to return to the capital."
I know that Yang Guang was helpless because he was afraid, because he was afraid that I would die and that his throne would be unstable. I had once sent someone to send a message to the Emperor Queen of the Southern Ridge, asking them to visit Yuan Tiangang.
"Alright, I promise you!" Yang Guang's expression was terrible, every word came from his teeth, and I bitterly smiled in my heart. In the end, he was still thinking about the words "mother to the world". I'm afraid he thinks more about it than I do.
I understood what he was thinking. He originally thought that if Yang Guang were to kill me, he would at least cripple me, but now that Yang Kuang said that I let him go, for those who don't know about it, it was really hard to understand.
"But you have to agree to one of my conditions!" Yang Guang calmed his expression and said.
I thought for a moment that as long as I could keep Yang Liang's life, there was nothing I couldn't do even if there were ten conditions, so I said:
"As long as it is not a matter of calamity, chenqie will not hesitate to die!"
Yang Guang thought for a bit, laughed in disdain and said:
"With your power, do you think you can bring disaster upon the people? "It's even more impossible to say no words in the face of death. He's just going to help me get a concubine, that's all."
I was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh. I didn't expect that under such circumstances, Yang Guang would still be thinking about the matter of Na Fei.
"What kind of woman does Your Majesty want? Isn't that easy?" Even if it's my royal father's concubine, chenqie will not stop him. Since he's already made an exception and made his declaration, what can I do about it? "
It was not as if he was not depressed. Last time, he exchanged the talent show for Xuan Hua. This time, who was he going to trade Yang Liang's life for?
"It's different this time. The empress will need to personally go and bring her to the palace." Yang Guang hesitated slightly and said.
I bitterly sighed in my heart. Yang Guang, oh Yang Guang, in the end, he had to think of every possible way to humiliate me, telling me to take the title of empress to bring a woman of unknown status into the palace as my consort.
"No!" The emperor doesn't need to humiliate the empress like this, he's willing to die! " Yang Liang angrily said.
I glanced at Yang Liang. He only knew that I was being humiliated by Yang Guang, so how could he know that I was being humiliated by Yang Guang to such an extent? My dignity has long been trampled into the dust by Yang Guang, how can you talk about the dignity of a queen? If I can save Yang Liang's life, why can't I let go of my dignity? Thus, he calmly said:
"Chenqie shall obey His Majesty's arrangements and keep her promise. Otherwise, chenqie will have to carry this dagger with her."
"When has I ever reneged on my promises?" It's just that I, a mere mortal, can take his life, regardless of where he goes, it's no problem for me. So, the Empress has to be safe, and take care of herself, or else don't blame me for acting viciously! " Yang Guang said with a hint of viciousness.
