“Lady Chang Er!”
When the guard saw the changes in her expressions, he said cautiously, “Grandmaster Erlang has been a loyal subject. He never wanted to become the Emperor, but when His Majesty passed away, the empire will be in a mess. We need someone to stabilize the situation. So—” He was Yang Jian’s confidante. So, he wanted to explain the situation.
However, before he could finish his sentence, Chang Er interrupted him.
“Leave! I don’t want to listen to this!” she said coldly as her body trembled.
The guard did not dare say anything more. He responded and was about to leave the prison cell.
“Hold on!”
However, right at that moment, Chang Er seemed to have thought of something. She pointed at Darryl and the other two women. She said coldly, “Take these three peasants away as well!”
She was Lady Chang Er, and she was of high status. How could she be locked up with three ordinary folks? It was too humiliating.
‘Peasants?’
Darryl was displeased when he heard that, but he said nothing.
“Lady Chang Er!” The guard was a little helpless. He smiled bitterly and said, “It was His Majesty’s instructions to lock the three of them with you. I do not dare to defy his orders. I hope you can understand it!”
Then, the guard turned around and left.
Only Darryl, Celine, Queenie, and Chang Er were left in the prison cell.
Chang Er was livid, but she was also too lazy to bother about Darryl and the rest. She sat there quietly; she closed her eyes and rested.
Naturally, Darryl would not bother with Chang Er’s cold temperament. After all, she was a famous figure and the legendary, beautiful Moon Palace Fairy. She had been thrown in prison, so he understood her bad temper.
More importantly, Chang Er had been arrested because of him.
If he did not use his mimic technique to trick Emperor Hou Yi, he would not have had a psychotic break and died. He would even not have carved Chang Er and Zhu Bajie’s name on the jade platform in his cultivation room.
