Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, the prince led me to rebel

Chen Lingyi felt warm in her heart for Luo Xiaoran's thoughtful act of letting her bask in the sun to keep away the cold, and she expressed her gratitude:

"Luo Xiaoran, I'm going to kill you!"

The tone should have been one of resentment and anger, but because of not drinking water for a long time, the throat was hoarse, and the whole body was weak, it finally turned into a low murmur.

Luo Xiaoran spit two more grape seeds into the pot of peonies, then put down the hexagonal plate containing grapes and walked towards Chen Lingyi step by step.

At this time, Chen Lingyi was tied firmly to a cross. Her loose hair covered her swollen face, but it could not hide the fishy smell emanating from her body.

She was still wearing the same gorgeous palace dress she had worn that day, but after a few months, this priceless piece of clothing had become dirty and greasy, and had many signs of being torn.

Luo Xiaoran stared at Chen Lingyi's clothes, the more she looked, the more ridiculous she found them.

Generally, when court officials or royal relatives entered the palace, they had to wear clothes that complied with regulations. After returning home, they would change the clothes and carefully put them away for wearing again when they entered the palace next time.

But Chen Lingyi didn't even want to change out of her palace dress that day. She only wanted to watch the drama of herself being insulted by the old beggars.

——So, Luo Xiaoran let Chen Lingyi experience for herself this "brilliant idea" that she had come up with.

Now, this palace dress that symbolizes Princess Chen Lingyi's identity is as damaged as its owner.

"Give Chen Lingyi some porridge, and I'll chat with her."

In less than a quarter of an hour, Chen Lingyi was knocked unconscious by the sun, and Luo Xiaoran gave instructions to Wei An.

Wei An went up and gave Chen Lingyi a big fight, forcing her to wake up. As expected, his injured palm began to bleed again. Luo Xiaoran frowned when she saw it, but she didn't say much.

Since the day she escaped, Wei An would go to the dungeon on time to slap Chen Lingyi in the face, which resulted in her palms being rubbed when she forced open the cell door, and they have never healed.

"The Emperor will never let you go!"

No one expected that Chen Lingyi, who had regained some strength after eating, would say this as her first sentence.

Especially since her hair was tied up behind her head at this moment, revealing her bruised and purple face, and she was still making threats, people watching could not help but laugh.

Luo Xiaoran really didn't understand how Chen Lingyi got the courage to say harsh words to her again and again when she could be crushed to death by her at any moment.

Could it be that people like Chen Lingyi, who were born into a royal family and held great power when they grew up, all have very high self-confidence?

That’s right, they have the capital to be confident and arrogant, and they have the means to gain a different kind of satisfaction by attacking the self-esteem of others.

Thinking of this, a hint of malice suddenly rose in Luo Xiaoran's heart, and she wanted to crush Chen Lingyi's pride.

"If Emperor Tianqi really cares about you, why hasn't he discovered that... the Princess's Mansion has changed hands?"

In response to Luo Xiaoran's question, Chen Lingyi snorted coldly and said arrogantly: "Do you think you can control the Princess's Mansion by relying on those shrimp soldiers and crab generals under your command?"

"If the emperor hadn't just confined me to my room, the emperor would have noticed something was wrong if I hadn't been in the palace for three days."

"I know you are under house arrest, and there are guards surrounding the mansion!" There was a smile in Luo Xiaoran's beautiful eyes, but the smile did not reach her eyes at all.

"What I mean is, if he had remembered you during this period and summoned you to the palace, you wouldn't be tortured every day, right?"

Luo Xiaoran gathered all the people imprisoned by Chen Lingyi in the dungeon into a cell and threw Chen Lingyi in.

These people were warned not to harm Chen Lingyi's life or let her become disabled, and as for whatever else they wanted to do - it was up to them!

It is said that the woman who was turned into a human pig was also imprisoned in the dungeon with her sister.

When she saw Chen Lingyi being locked up with them, she went up and pulled out several handfuls of Chen Lingyi's hair, and wrote the incident on her sister's back.

The only sense left of the human pig sister was touch, and the words written on her back by her younger sister with her fingers informed her of the great news.

She wanted to laugh, but her voice had been made hoarse by the poison and her tongue had been cut off.

She wanted to cry, but her eyes were also dug out.

She could only nod desperately to her sister, telling her that she understood and...she would die without regrets!

The younger sister seemed to have a telepathic connection with her elder sister. When she saw Wei An again, who came to slap her on time, she knelt down and begged her to kill her sister.

"My sister is 70% similar to Princess Yan. Perhaps this is why Princess Qingyi wanted to capture my sister."

When Luo Xiaoran was taken to the dungeon that day, her sister was shocked beyond words when she saw her appearance.

Wei An frowned, "Are you blaming the princess?"

My sister immediately shook her head, her voice trembling, "I didn't mean that. What does it have to do with others if a wicked person does evil?"

"I just want you to help my sister get out of trouble and let me follow you... I'm homeless now."

Wei An can decide for himself whether to give Sister Pig a quick death.

As for her sister's other request, Wei Ande had to ask his own princess.

Luo Xiaoran hesitated for a while and did not agree. She only said that when the time was right, everyone in the dungeon would be released.

Of course, she would give them some money to support themselves, since Chen Lingyi had a lot of money in her warehouse anyway.

……

"So, your brother, the Emperor, doesn't care about you as much as you think."

"It was you who devoted yourself to Lin Yuanfang in order to help him become the legitimate son."

"It was you who killed Prince Wende in order to leave the throne vacant."

"It was you who dealt with the Lin family so that he could ascend to the throne safely and securely."

"It was you who committed the bloody murder in Prince Yan's Mansion in order to eradicate the roots and kill the son of Prince Wende."

"This murder has completely destroyed the last bit of softness Chen Ji had for you. The death of Prince Wende has made Chen Ji regard you as a target of revenge..."

"How can you still blame Chen Ji for not wanting to rekindle the friendship you shared when you were little?"

"You paid for everything and made all the sacrifices. You shed all the blood. He just stood by and watched coldly, but in the end he got everything and even drove you back to your fiefdom."

"Three years later, you were able to return to Beijing. If I'm not mistaken, you were the one behind the incidents at the Shuchang Hall and the cheating in the imperial examinations, but he was the one who actually benefited in the end."

"But how did he treat you? Let's not talk about anything else. On the day I left, he used me to show you the majesty of the emperor, to make you understand that he was the emperor and no longer your brother. In the end, he even confined you to your home."

"Chen Lingyi, do you still think that you two really have a deep relationship as siblings?"

Luo Xiaoran continued with a series of words, each of which hit Chen Lingyi's heart and lungs.

"No! It's not like that!"

Chen Lingyi screamed in despair, but that little bit of porridge did not give her much energy, so what she thought was a scream was just a whimper due to dehydration and exhaustion.
