Song Jinyu stared at the full bowl of food in front of Ji Chu and frowned, as if it was indeed a bit too much.

"You really can't eat anymore?"

"real."

Song Jinyu then swapped his bowl with Ji Chu's. "If you can't eat anymore, don't eat. Otherwise, you will feel uncomfortable. There's not much in my bowl, so you can eat mine."

Ji Chu wanted to get angry but held it back. She simply put down her chopsticks and drank tea. His Royal Highness Prince Jing was still there, so she had to give Song Jinyu some face.

Rong Lou watched the two of them chatting back and forth, laughed and cried without showing any emotion, and picked up a full bowl of food for himself. He had lost weight due to the fear he had been living in these days, so it was time for him to replenish his energy.

As soon as Tang Mumu entered the room, she found Rong Yan following her.

She took a deep breath and turned to look at him, smiling, "Why are you here too? I see you haven't eaten much, go down and eat some more, don't worry about me, I'm really full."

Rong Yan didn't say anything and pulled her out. Tang Mumu thought he wanted her to go downstairs to eat again, so she broke free from his hand and said, "I'm really full."

"I will go into the palace with you, and we will rob the prison tonight."

Rong Yan looked serious, he was not joking.

Tang Mumu was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, "How can we really rob the Dark Prison? We finally left the palace, that damn place, and we can't fall into the trap again. Robbing the Dark Prison won't work."

Tang Mumu pulled back the hand that Rong Yan was holding tightly, walked to the window and looked down. Those who had worked hard outside all day were eager to return home, and those who had played outside all day also wanted to go home. There was peace and harmony between the people coming and going.

"Don't you want to know why Linlang came to the palace? Don't you want to know what the feud between her and your master is? I will accompany you to the palace. As for the prison break, we will plan it out in the long run. At least don't let Linlang succeed tonight."

"You noticed it too?" Tang Mumu asked excitedly. It's not that she didn't notice Linlang's hostility towards the master. Every time they lost control of their emotions, it was because they talked about the master. Especially when she heard the news of Linlang entering the palace just now, Tang Mumu's first reaction was that Linlang was going there for the master.

Linlang holds a grudge against her master. Not only Tang Mumu feels it, but Rong Yan also notices it. So at this moment, Tang Mumu is even more certain that there is something going on between her master and Linlang that neither of them knows about.

"So don't worry, let's go to the palace first, at least to know the whole story, and then we'll leave when it gets dark."

"Okay." Tang Mumu nodded heavily. Now, apart from listening to Rong Yan, she didn't know what else she could do.

The ticking sound of the dripping water clock made people's thoughts drift away. A crisp bell rang, and Xie Yu, who had originally closed his eyes, quickly opened his eyes and looked at the person who came.

As expected, she really came.

Xie Yu was very happy to see her again, but he couldn't be happy to see her tonight. He knew that she was here to kill Jiang Moqing, and she couldn't wait any longer.

Linlang seemed to have expected Xie Yu to be waiting here, and was not surprised to see him. However, when she thought about how he had taken her away before, she couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied with him and frowned fiercely.

"Fanfan, now you don't even want to say a word to me? When did the relationship between us become so unfamiliar?"

Xie Yu approached Linlang. He knew that if he didn't speak, Linlang wouldn't say a word to him.

Linlang glanced at him with an indifferent look, even as if she was looking at a stranger.

"What do you want to say? Go ahead and I'll listen."

Xie Yu was stunned, and didn't know what to say for a moment. She didn't blame him for his previous actions, nor did she turn her sword against him. He knew her too well. This truly proved that he was just an insignificant person in her heart, perhaps not even a friend.

"It was wrong of me to knock you out and take you away, but I did it for your safety. Auntie..."

Before Xie Yu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Linlang, "The princess hates me to the core. If she knew I was in the palace, she would tear me into pieces. I already know that, so I don't blame you."

"Then why are you so cold to me? It was obviously not like that that day in the Xiao Mansion."

Linlang looked a little impatient, and said unhappily, "What do you want now? Isn't the throne already in your pocket? You have achieved your goal. I am no longer of any value to you. You shouldn't waste your time on me."

Xie Yu's eyes darkened, and he actually felt a little regretful that they had always put interests first when they first met.

"Do you really have to talk like that? I did ask for something from you before, but you did the same thing, too. You've been using me."

"So I have never blamed you for using me. We have always gotten along very well. Your goal is to ascend the throne. If you had always relied on me, an unpopular princess, maybe the eldest princess would have won now. Now everything is fine, you should be happy."

"No, everything is not good." Xie Yu suddenly raised his voice, making the originally quiet main prison room seem even more empty. Xie Yu took a step towards Linlang, who immediately took a step back and looked at him vigilantly. Xie Yu paused with his outstretched hand, smiled and cried, and took a step back. The distance between them was even farther than before.

"I won my aunt's victory and became the king. I know I should be happy, but you are not by my side. I can't be happy at all."

"Fanfan, what I said to you that day was all from the heart. I really like you. My original plan was for you to ascend to this high position with me. Have you forgotten that?"

Linlang's brows seemed to tighten even more. She no longer wanted to talk nonsense with him. She came here tonight just to kill Jiang Moqing with her own hands and should not waste time here.

"Where's Jiang Moqing?"

"You want to kill him, but not now."

Xie Yu was not asking a rhetorical question. He knew from the beginning that she would come tonight, so he waited again to stop him.

Jiang Moqing really deserves to die, but he can't die tonight.

Linlang came with a sword in hand. She drew out the sword and held it horizontally in front of her body. She said in a tone that did not allow for negotiation, "I must kill him tonight. If you want to stop me, then do it."

Linlang did not miss the tenderness in Xie Yu's eyes. Now she could no longer tell which emotion in Xie Yu's eyes was real and which was fake.

"Fanfan, I have never fought with you."

"If you want to stop me, we will be enemies. What can enemies do if they don't fight? Even if I can't defeat you tonight, I will still try my best to kill Jiang Moqing before I die. If you don't want me to ruin your plan, you'd better kill me now."

Xie Yu's face was already showing annoyance, and he opened his thin lips slightly, "Are you so anxious? You can't wait even a day?"

"I have waited for this day for ten years. Jiang Moqing must die. I want him to go to hell and then help me support the family. Mother kowtows to apologize."

Tang Mumu, who was hiding in the corner, trembled. Almost at the same moment, Rong Yan hugged her in his arms and subconsciously wanted to cover her ears.

Tang Mumu leaned on Rong Yan's chest in a daze, her heart felt like it was about to jump out, and then began to hurt violently, as if the wound that had not yet healed was vomiting pus and blood, and the pain made her whole body tremble.
