Xia Houqing has always been responsive to Ling Yun's requests, but this time, he resolutely refused.

Seeing how much they take care of you, I don't have to kill them or torture them, but I can't let them go.

The matter was more serious than expected... Ling Yun's expression remained unchanged, and he asked, Why?

Xia Houqing said seriously: This matter is related to the future of the entire Qianshan Island, and it cannot be made up for by a little personal friendship.

Ling Yun looked at him with sharp eyes: Is it the future of Qianshan Island, or your personal ambition and selfish desire?

Xia Houqing's face darkened.

Su Xiaoxiao tugged Ling Yun's sleeve indiscriminately.

Ling Yun knew Xia Houqing too well, it was useless to call his father today, even if he knelt down to beg him, he would not show mercy.

You keep saying that you want to make up for me, so it turns out that you won't even let go of my two friends.

Xia Houqing frowned, and said patiently: If you want anything else, I can give it to you, but this is not a child's play. Don't be ignorant. Everything in the future will be yours. I will do the same. For your own good.

Ling Yun said sarcastically: For my own good? You made up for me, not because you hurt me, but to make yourself feel better. After all, the only person you really care about is yourself. My mother really misjudged her at the beginning. If you know, she shouldn't know you, and she shouldn't risk her life to give birth to me!

Xia Houqing slapped the table with a slap: You are presumptuous!

Su Xiaoxiao immediately stepped forward, glared at Ling Yun and said: You are really too much, how can you say such angry words? You are obviously worried about the city lord these days, and you will be awkward when you meet each other!

As she spoke, she winked at Ling Yun.

Ling Yun clenched his fingers tightly and did not continue.

Su Xiaoxiao immediately turned around and looked at Xia Houqing: City Lord, his bad temper should have changed a long time ago, and my mother has been angry with him many times, but he is not in good health, so I can't beat him.

Thinking of his frail body, Xia Houqing became less angry.

Su Xiaoxiao said to Ling Yun again: You really are, didn't the two of them just save your life, she gave you her son's life-sustaining medicine, she was willing, and you didn't force her.

Ling Yun seamlessly continued: If it wasn't for her, I would have died in the Western Jin Dynasty! So-and-so would have no son!

Xia Houqing was anxious: You—

Su Xiaoxiao said solemnly: Okay, okay, I know that she treats you kindly, but the city owner also has the difficulty of the city owner. Father and son have no overnight feud, so don't always deliberately anger your father.

Ling Yun turned his face away.

Su Xiaoxiao continued to be a peacemaker: City Lord, I don't understand the affairs of your Xiahou family, and neither does Ling Yun. You never let him participate in anything, and you didn't even tell him. How can you let him understand your ambitions? ?”

Xia Houqing was also silent when she heard the words.

Su Xiaoxiao said to Ling Yun: Brother, you have a good talk with the city lord, I'll wait for you outside.

Soon only Xia Houqing and Ling Yun were left in the room.

Xia Houqing looked at Ling Yun's thin figure, thought of Yun Xi, and sighed: Come here, I will tell you the history of Xia Hou's family.

...

After half an hour, Ling Yun came out.

Su Xiaoxiao looked around, walked out with Ling Yun, and at the same time asked in a low voice: How is it?

Ling Yun sighed: He still doesn't agree to let him go, but I know the role of Dragon Crystal.

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows: Oh?

Ling Yun said: It is used to open Emperor Wu's mausoleum. There are four pieces in total. He is looking for the piece in our hands. He suspects that the dragon crystal is in the hands of another descendant of Emperor Wu.

Su Xiaoxiao said: Does he know that the descendants of another lineage of Emperor Wu are the Wei family?

Ling Yun nodded: Well, he knew about it six years ago, but in recent years, the Wei family has declined, and he does not regard the Wei family as a threat. Not long ago, he got a treasure map, which recorded that the four dragon crystals are Only after he unlocked the key to Emperor Wudi's mausoleum did he realize that there were more than three dragon crystals, and he suspected that the last one was in the hands of the Wei family.

Su Xiaoxiao suddenly realized: So that's the case, I just said, the martial arts competition is held every three years, why did it change to go to Longshan to get the dragon crystal in this session.

Ling Yun said: I'll think of another way to rescue the empress of the Western Jin Dynasty and the eldest prince.

dungeon.

Xia Houzheng is in Yuwenxi's cell, forcing her to write a letter to Xijin.

Xie Jinnian stood in the corridor outside the cell.

Xia Houzheng said condescendingly: Your Highness, I advise you to cooperate obediently and avoid suffering.

Yu Wenxi said coldly: I want the first one, I want the dead one, let me be the running dog of your Xiahou family, dreaming!

Xia Houzheng said: Your Highness, you don't think I really dare to punish you?

Yu Wenxi said sarcastically: I, Yu Wenxi, will take your last name if I say a word!

Xia Houzheng raised his hand.

A guard came in carrying an iron bucket of burning charcoal, and took out a red-hot soldering iron from the iron bucket.

Yu Wenxi's cartilage was loosened, and his hands and feet were shackled, so he couldn't resist at all.

She didn't intend to struggle either.

The guard tore off her clothes, revealing her bruised shoulders.

Yu Wenhuai from the cell next door rushed over, grabbed the wooden board of the cell door and angrily said: Xia Houzheng, you have the guts to come after me! They are all men! Bullying women is nothing!

Xia Houzheng said: Second brother, go and teach him a lesson.

Xie Jinnian sighed: Brother, I don't know martial arts, aren't you embarrassing me?

Xia Houzheng smiled coldly, took the soldering iron from the guard, and stamped it on Yu Wenhuai's chest.

Yu Wenhuai didn't dodge, but took it down abruptly.

Xia Houzheng said to Yu Wenxi: If you don't write a letter, I will continue to torture your brother.

Yu Wenxi said casually: He and I are rivals, you tortured him to death, I have to thank you.

Xia Houzheng hooked his lips, put the soldering iron back, took a new one, and walked towards Yu Wenxi.

Yu Wenhuai scolded: Xia Houzheng!

Just when he was about to make a move, the guards beside the city lord came over: The city lord has an order not to torture the two of them.

Xia Houzheng frowned: Why?

The guard said: The city lord ordered so.

Xia Houzheng: Who came to see the adoptive father today?

Guard: Master Yun Shao.

Xia Houzheng's eyes turned cold: It's him again.

-

In the dead of night.

Yu Wenxi was drowsy.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of the cell door being opened.

She woke up suddenly.

A sneaky figure rushed in, and she was about to strangle him with an iron chain, when she heard him whisper: Shh, Your Highness, it's me.

Yu Wenxi recognized him as one of the jailers of the dungeon through the thin moonlight.

Palace Master Yun Shao asked me to rescue you guys, you should take this medicine first, it's the antidote for cartilage powder.

The jailer said, and handed Yu Wenxi a medicine.

Yu Wenxi gave him a suspicious look, and took the medicine.

After resting for a while, she really felt that her body was gradually regaining strength.

The jailer took out the key from his waist, opened her shackles, and opened the door of the next room to wake Yu Wenhuai.

But Yu Wenhuai endured a lot of torture for Yu Wenxi, and the situation is a bit bad.

The jailer was anxious: I can't wake up His Highness.

Yu Wenxi glanced at the unconscious Yu Wenhuai, and carried Yu Wenhuai on her back.

The jailer took the two of them out of the dungeon: Your Highness, the matter is urgent, and the Young Palace Mistress can't get through so many relationships, so I can only trouble you to drill through the dog's hole.

Yu Wenxi nodded.

The three of them got out of a dog hole in a secluded courtyard.

The carriage has been waiting for a long time.

The jailer said to Yu Wenxi: The carriage will take the two Highnesses to Baihua Palace. Your Highness, please knock me out now.

Yu Wenxi frowned, and knocked him unconscious with a hand knife.

Then she and the coachman helped Yu Wenhuai into the carriage.

The coachman said: His Royal Highness, sit still. If someone chases after me, I will try my best to stop them. You and Your Highness abandon the car and walk eastward, you will arrive at Baihua Palace.

Yu Wenxi asked puzzledly: Who is your Palace Master Yun? Why did you help us?

The coachman said: Young Palace Master is also entrusted by others. Your Royal Highness will know when she goes to Baihua Palace.
