Inside the Ministry of Justice Prison, it was eerie and terrifying.
The entire prison could only invoke a bone-chilling cold, along with various mixed odors.
It was a kind of putrid scent, as if witnessing the decay of one’s own body.
Bai Xiyue had been detained here for one night, with no one paying her any mind, and the person she longed for hadn’t appeared. Despair had consumed her entirely, compounded by Lv Zhi’s betrayal and the Mu Family’s neglect, further enveloping her in hatred.
Footsteps echoed from the secluded corridor.
Suddenly, the iron lock on the door was opened, and prison guards pushed the door in. "Haha, looking so delicate, yet with such a vicious heart, actually attempting to frame her benefactor, the guardian deity of our Qin Country."
Were these words meant for her?
The anger in Bai Xiyue’s heart surged like a tidal wave, as she screamed internally: What do you know?! The Mu Family is not my benefactor, but my enemy! If it weren’t for the Mu Family, how would I have ended up as an orphan residing under another’s roof?
Yet, she couldn’t speak out.
Because her ability to speak had been sealed before she was sent here. Moreover, her spiritual power was also sealed, leaving her completely powerless.
Was it to prevent her from saying things she shouldn’t? Even from escaping?
An unwillingness pervaded Bai Xiyue’s heart, and she could only glare with eyes full of hatred at the two incoming prison guards.
"Oh, still quite temperamental. If Prince Rui hadn’t ordered your removal, I would definitely teach you a lesson so you know what it means to act properly!" Another guard walked in and met Bai Xiyue’s venomous gaze, immediately raising the iron chain in his hand.
His Highness wants to see her! Has His Highness finally arrived?
This news made Bai Xiyue forget the guard’s rudeness, stirring feelings of joy within her heart.
She even felt apologetic for previously doubting Qin Jinhao.
She shouldn’t have doubted him; she should believe that he cared for her. There must be a reason for his actions.
Without much resistance, Bai Xiyue eagerly followed the two guards out of the cell.
"Let me out! Dare to treat me like this, beware of His Highness punishing you!" Bai Xiyue shouted while standing in the chamber, head raised. The forbidden technique on her tongue was lifted, finally allowing her speech.
The room’s only light source was an aperture atop the wall, about the size of an infant’s head.
Cold light streamed down from the aperture, casting a beam that enveloped Bai Xiyue in the chamber.
She shouted because she knew someone must be behind that aperture.
She was indeed correct.
Behind the aperture stood two people.
One in a red robe and light armor, one in a black python robe.
Mu Qingge’s clear gaze pierced through the aperture, her lips subtly curved with amusement, saying, "What does Prince Rui invite me here to see?"
