Reborn to marry, she no longer wants to be the young master's mother

As the night fell, the cold wind whispered through the cracks in the deep palace walls, bringing a hint of ominous atmosphere. Fuling's figure looked particularly thin under the dim candlelight, and her eyes flashed with complex emotions, as if carrying thousands of words. With a trembling voice, she said to Chu Heng, who was stunned in front of her: "Chu Heng, I... I have to tell you that Xie Chaochao, our mutual friend, has been secretly arrested by the emperor and imprisoned in the deep palace. His life or death is uncertain."

Chu Heng's face suddenly changed when he heard this, as if he was struck by lightning. The teacup in his hand fell to the ground, and the fragments flew everywhere, just like his broken heart. He stared at Fuling in disbelief, his voice hoarse: "You...you are the spy lurking beside you? Why? Why did you do this?"

Fuling lowered her head, tears silently falling, dripping onto the cold ground, splashing circles of ripples. "I... I also have no choice. I have to obey the orders of my family. But my friendship with you is sincere." After saying that, she suddenly raised her head, a flash of determination in her eyes, and her figure flashed in front of Chu Heng. She didn't know when a sharp dagger appeared in her hand, stabbing straight into her heart.

Chu Heng reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist to prevent the tragedy from happening. The two looked at each other for a long time. Finally, Chu Heng sighed and let go of her hand, his eyes full of fatigue and helplessness. "Forget it, there is a grudge between you and me. But Xie Chaochao, I will save him!"

The night deepened, and the two hurriedly left, leaving only silence in the room and an unfinished conversation. Returning to Long Bo's retreat, Chu Heng told him everything. Hearing this, Long Bo was shocked, and the pipe in his hand accidentally fell to the ground, sparks flew, reflecting his frown and deep eyes.

"This...what should we do?" Long Bo muttered to himself, then quickly regained his composure and stood side by side with Chu Heng, his eyes determined. "We can't just sit there and do nothing. We must make a plan as soon as possible to rescue Chao Chao!"

Under the moonlight, the two men's figures were stretched out, and they whispered to each other, planning a thrilling rescue operation. The night became their best cover, and the faith in their hearts was their sharpest weapon. They knew that this trip would be a life-or-death struggle, but for the sake of their deep friendship, they had no hesitation and vowed to overcome all the difficulties and rescue Xie Chaochao from the cage of imperial power.

As night fell, the glazed tiles of the palace shone with a cold and mysterious luster under the caress of the moonlight, as if each tile hid an unknown secret. Chu Heng and his companions walked on the gravel road and passed through the layers of guards quietly and silently, and the taut strings in their hearts became even tighter because of the truth that was about to be revealed.

They came to the depths of the palace, a corner that even the moonlight seemed afraid to enter. All around, the ancient stone walls whispered in the night wind, as if they could hear the sorrow and sighs of the past. In such a place full of unknowns and dangers, the two looked at each other, without saying much, and tacitly chose to go their separate ways, each going deeper into this huge maze, just to find the crucial clue faster.

Chu Heng's footsteps were light and firm. He shuttled between the intricate corridors and secret passages, and his heartbeat accelerated with every turn. Finally, in the dead silence, he sensed an unusual breath - it was a faint groan from deep underground, mixed with dampness and despair, like a prisoner's soul calling silently.

He followed the sound, step by step, down until he came to a rusty iron door. The faint light from the crack of the door was like the only guide in the darkness, luring him closer. Chu Heng took a deep breath and pushed the heavy iron door open. A musty and bloody smell hit him in the face, making him frown.

The scene before him made his heart sink. In the dim dungeon, the flickering torches illuminated a pale and haggard face - Xie Chaochao, the woman who should have been flying freely in the prosperous world, was now chained and huddled against the cold stone wall, with a light of indomitable spirit and despair flashing in her eyes. Her clothes were tattered and her body was covered with scars, but she still tried to hold her head high and not let the tears fall.

"Chao Chao!" Chu Heng's voice echoed in the empty dungeon, with undisguised shock and heartache. He quickly stepped forward, trying to untie the shackles that bound her, but found that each chain was extremely strong, which seemed to indicate that there was a more complicated conspiracy and power hidden behind it.

"Chu Heng... you're here." Xie Chaochao's voice was weak and hoarse, but the fire of hope was rekindled in her eyes. At this moment, their eyes met, and without saying anything, thousands of words were conveyed to each other. Chu Heng knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, he had to rescue Xie Chaochao, reveal the truth behind it, and give her a free and bright future.

Chu Heng learned the exact location, and then told Long Bo about it.

But we didn't expect that when the new song just flew out, suddenly a lot of guards came from all around.

There were big knives in front of him, pointed at him.

Xie Chaochao was almost scared to death when he saw it and immediately took two steps back. However, since he had been sleepy for so many days and had not eaten anything, his legs were weak and he fell down.

Seeing that they were about to be flooded, Chu Heng exposed his waist and looked around angrily.

"I knew that these Sogou guys would not let us leave so happily. It looks like we have to fight our way out."

But what the mother didn't expect was that as soon as she said this, she saw someone walking up from behind and clapping.

And he was still talking slowly and leisurely there.

"What a great hero saving a beautiful girl! I didn't realize that, Chu Heng, you are so patient and nice. I admire you very much. If possible, maybe we can work together. What do you think?"

Chu Heng looked at the emperor and suddenly burst out laughing.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand. And it doesn't seem that complicated to me, right? What do you think? There's nothing wrong with me cooperating with you, but I didn't expect you to come here."

"I didn't expect you to find this place. Did the two of us confess?"

Chu Heng shook his head.

Xie Chaochao didn't know what was going on, and just looked at him curiously.

Chu Heng said as he looked at the other person with such a pitiful look.

"Fuling and Ah Fei have been killed by me. I didn't investigate whether they were the emperor's men. It's too late for me to understand now. I feel very bad for you being treated like this."

Only then did Xie Chaochao understand.
