"Yes, Commander!"
Su Zuidie's hands were tied to the wooden stake, and one of her wrists had a deep cut. Bright red blood dripped onto the ground, but the prison cell was quiet, and there was no one else. She turned her head to look at the blood dripping out, and she could only hear the sound of blood dripping. Gradually, Su Zuidie only felt something buzzing in her ears, and Qin Feng's cold voice suddenly rang in her ears, "The Princess Consort just gave birth, and Ruyang City is bustling with noise and excitement." Bustling … … why couldn't she hear anything? Seeing more and more blood on the ground, she clearly felt her body begin to weaken, as if she could feel the blood flowing out of her pulse. She even felt that she would slowly die until the last drop of blood flowed out of her.
"No … … I don't want to die … …"
"Help … … I want to see Mo Xiuyao! I'll talk, I'll tell you everything! " There was no one outside the door, and Su Zuidie fearfully discovered that she really would die here. This fear made her panic even more, and she even felt her blood flow faster, "I'll talk! I'll tell you everything! Help … … I don't want to die! "
Outside the door, Qin Feng's lips curled into a cold smile, "Wouldn't it have been better if you said so earlier? I thought she would be stubbornly refusing to say anything. "
Lin Han said, "It's probably because she knows she has nowhere to go this time. Even if she doesn't say anything, Xue Chengliang will. Before, she was just relying on the fact that no one else knew. "
"Go and report to the Prince."
Although it was already the second night watch period, there were still people in the Prince Ding Mansion who were awake.
Mo Xiuyao sat by the bed, looking at the sleeping Ye Li, his expression gentle and calm. He raised his hand to gently caress the pale and beautiful face he had chosen, a trace of tenderness and warmth appearing in his eyes. Beside the bed, there was a small cradle covered in soft silk, and the baby was also sleeping soundly.
Looking at the adult and child in front of him, Mo Xiuyao didn't have the slightest hint of sleepiness in his eyes. He bent over to look at the baby in the cradle, and seeing that there was no one around, he couldn't help but reach out to pinch the baby's tender little face. Although he had been very careful to control his strength, the baby still pouted uncomfortably, as if he was about to cry. Mo Xiuyao quickly retracted his hand and sat up straight to look down at the baby in the cradle. From the looks of it, he was going to be a father. She remembered her father's strictness and love in the Prince Ding Mansion. Every time he got into trouble, his father would punish him mercilessly, and his brother would plead for him. However, he knew that every time after he was punished, his father would secretly come to see him in the middle of the night and sigh helplessly.
He had never thought that he would be a father one day, and when he found out that Li Li was pregnant under such circumstances, one could imagine the anger in his heart. Therefore, he had always felt that he did not like this child. However … the soft and warm feeling that filled his heart was completely different from the feeling he had for Li Li.
This was his son. Right now, he needed his protection. When he grew up, he needed his guidance. Then, he would grow up to be a man as tall as him.
"Un, don't fight with me for Li Li, otherwise … Father will properly dote on you." Bending over, Mo Xiuyao stared at the sleeping baby in the cradle as he warned.
Ye Li opened her eyes in a daze and saw Mo Xiuyao sitting by the bed with his head lowered as he said something to the baby. She couldn't help but laugh softly.
Being discovered by his beloved wife, Mo Xiuyao's face froze. He pretended that nothing had happened and sat back down on the bed as he softly said, "Why are you awake?" Ye Li saw that he hadn't even changed his clothes. It was clear that he hadn't slept at all. "Why aren't you resting?" Mo Xiuyao pulled her into his embrace and said in a muffled voice, "I can't sleep." Ye Li sat up from his embrace and pushed the distance between them apart. She carefully looked at his expression and softly asked, "What's wrong? It can't be that you're too excited about the birth of the baby, right? "Mo Xiuyao curled his lips in disgust as he glanced at the baby lying in the cradle. Ye Li helplessly smiled. From the moment the baby was born, he had already been looked down upon by his own father. If she didn't understand Mo Xiuyao's personality and thoughts, Ye Li would have suspected that he hated his own child. This father and son … How would they get along in the future?
"I saw that your expression wasn't right before, but I didn't have time to ask you. Did something happen? "Leaning against Mo Xiuyao, Ye Li softly asked.
Mo Xiuyao raised a hand to ruffle Ye Li's half falling hair. A cold light flashed in his eyes as he lightly said, "The matter of Tan Jizhi and Su Zuidie that we were investigating before is about to be concluded."
"Oh?" Ye Li raised her head. Just by looking at Mo Xiuyao's gloomy expression, she knew that this matter was very shocking. She lightly patted Mo Xiuyao's hand and comforted him, "No matter what happens, we will always be together." Mo Xiuyao was startled. He nodded and said, "I know."
"Prince, Commander Qin requests an audience." Outside, Qingyu, who was on night watch, reported in a low voice.
Mo Xiuyao nodded. He stood up and said to Ye Li, "I'll go take a look. Ye Li should rest first." Ye Li also knew that her body wasn't well right now. She nodded and thought for a moment before saying, "If Su Zuidie really wants to confess, there's no harm in having Elder Su listen." Mo Xiuyao nodded. "I know. Don't worry about these things. Rest well. "After helping Ye Li lie down and covering her with a blanket, Mo Xiuyao turned and walked out. He glanced at Qingyu and Qingluan who were waiting at the door and said, "Take good care of the Princess." Qingyu and Qingluan stood up and said, "Prince, please be at ease."
In the empty room, Su Zuidie was sitting on a chair placed in the middle of the room. There wasn't even anyone in the room to watch over her. Right now, no one would be worried that she would escape or commit suicide. The large amount of blood she had just lost and the various tortures she had undergone in the past half year, she didn't even have the strength to walk a hundred steps out of this room. She had just been dragged away to be cleaned and changed into clean clothes. Su Zuidie looked at the clean clothes on her body, lost in thought. The dirty and gloomy prison life of the past half year had almost made her forget what it was like to be clean. She could only constantly convince herself to forget in order to survive in that kind of environment. But now … … she finally couldn't hold on any longer. When she felt her blood flowing out drop by drop, she finally realized how terrible death really was. If those people had come a little later, perhaps she would have already lost all her blood. From the moment she opened her mouth to beg for mercy, she had already lost. She definitely couldn't bear to let herself experience that slow and quiet death again.
The door was opened from the outside and Mo Xiuyao strolled in. Behind him were Qin Feng, Zhuo Jing and Feng Zhiyao.
Mo Xiuyao walked to the side and sat down. The others also took their seats one after another. Su Zuidie stared blankly at the white haired man in front of her. The Mo Xiuyao in front of her was dressed in white and had a head of white hair. His expression was calm and his eyes were indifferent, giving off a distant and cold feeling. This was completely different from the Mo Xiuyao in Su Zuidie's memory. "Xiu … … Xiuyao … … You're Xiuyao? Why are you … … "Mo Xiuyao frowned and impatiently glanced at Qin Feng. Qin Feng looked at Su Zuidie and said in a deep voice, "Miss Su, since you're willing to confess, then say it in front of Prince. It's the middle of the night and everyone doesn't have much time to waste. "
