That person walked in step by step and stopped in front of the rusty iron bars of the water dungeon. He looked down at Ning Shu, who was being punished in the water dungeon. He did not say a word, his eyes as dark as an abyss.
Who was this person? Was he so bored that he came to watch the show?
Ning Shu wanted to open her eyes to see who this person was, but after trying several times, she could not open her eyes in the water. She could only see a blurry figure. It was very familiar, but also so unfamiliar that it made her heart palpitate.
"Xiao Yun … Yi?" She opened her mouth, only to find that her throat seemed to be stuffed with sand. "What are you doing here?"
Xiao Yunyi, who had been immersed in the darkness, finally spoke. His bottomless black eyes shone faintly, as if he was lamenting and sighing. "What else can I do? I went against Mother's orders and sneaked in, so of course I'm here to see you. Shu 'er, I've advised you many times not to stay in the capital and not to be entangled with Mother, but you're so stubborn. Shu 'er, Shu' er, what should I do with you … "
Ning Shu almost thought that she had misheard. She couldn't help but let out a smile. "Your Highness the Sixth Prince … Even now, you still want to continue acting like you're deeply in love … Your interest is still as high as ever … This little girl almost believed you."
Xiao Yunyi furrowed his eyebrows unhappily. "Shu 'er, I was the one who came to see you the moment you were in trouble. I was also the one who knew that Mother would punish me severely, but I was still stubborn. I was even the one who offered to help you leave the capital several times and keep you safe. From the beginning to the end, I only had one thought, and that was to protect you. But you didn't appreciate it and now you're being so sarcastic towards me. Shu 'er, do you think my heart is made of iron? Or do you only have that cowardly Xiahou Qing in your heart? Did you know that after he found out that you had fallen into the harem, he also entered the palace to see Imperial Mother. However, after being threatened by Imperial Mother, he didn't say or do anything and just left the palace with his tail between his legs? When will you open your eyes and see clearly that the only person who truly cares about you is me from the beginning to the end! "
Because of his burning obsession, the corners of Xiao Yunyi's eyes were red and his hand that was holding onto the iron bars almost broke the thing in his hand.
"You care about me …" Ning Shu shuddered from head to toe as a new wave of water washed over her. It took her a long time to calm down before she could continue speaking. Her voice was very, very low, like a gossamer that could break at any moment. Even when it was at its limit, the sharpest sound could be heard. She smiled and said, "So, the way Your Highness the Sixth Prince cares about me is to take advantage of my perilous state, kill my maids, kidnap my second brother, and force me into a desperate situation so that you can use me as a bargaining chip to claim credit from your Imperial Mother. Then you pretended to be a good person and sent me to act as if you were deeply in love. Sixth Highness, even I feel tired for you. "
When his face was exposed, Xiao Yunyi panicked visibly, as if he had been slapped hard in the face. He couldn't continue with his act and had no face left.
"How do you know it's me?"
In the splashing water, Ning Shu coughed heavily a few times before she coughed out the water in her throat. She said intermittently, "What's so difficult about this? Although the Empress seems to be in control of the situation now, she has been surrounded by enemies for many years. In addition, His Majesty is afraid of her. Furthermore, she has completely lost her right hand this time. The Imperial Uncle is now like an old tigress with only a huge skeleton. She can't avoid the decline of being strong in appearance but weak in reality. Other than you, who else can she rely on to be her ox and horse? What's more, when His Highness the Fourth Prince forced the abdication, Your Highness the Sixth Prince didn't help in time. I'm afraid that you've angered the Empress. If you don't take the opportunity to use my Ning family's head to show your sincerity to her, how can you sit on your throne? Your Highness the Sixth Prince, I used to think that you were a pitiful person who lost yourself because of power. Now I know that you're just a complete hypocrite! I, Ning Shu, am deeply ashamed to know you in this life! "
"Shut up! Ning Shu, don't think that I will tolerate you forever! "
