"Zhao'er?... Why is it you?"

When Du Zhirou saw that the person coming was Zhao'er, Du Qingwan's personal maid, she was stunned for a moment.

Her eyes were wide open, as if she couldn't believe this was true.

"Sister Zhao'er, why are you here? Where's Sister Wan'er? Is she here too?"

Du Zijun has always gotten along well with Zhao'er. He asked about Du Qingwan's whereabouts as soon as he opened his mouth, with a strange joy in his eyes.

He hasn't seen Du Qingwan since she married into the palace.

Later, he heard from his mother Pang that the dog emperor sent his eldest sister to Loulan as a marriage partner, and Du Zijun even wanted to kill Zhu Yunhao.

Whenever Du Zijun thought of his elder sister, he would feel distressed and even often sad.

In his subconscious, from childhood to adulthood, no matter when, his mother Pang Shi and his sister Du Zhirou had always bullied and harmed his eldest sister in various ways.

Du Zijun wanted to persuade her but he lacked the strength to do so.

The only thing he could do was to secretly go to the backyard and bring delicious food to his elder sister Du Qingwan.

Whatever Du Zijun has, he wants to share with Du Qingwan.

It is precisely because of this that even though Du Qingwan hated the mother and daughter of the Pang family, she never had the heart to be cruel to them.

After all, Pang Shi is also Du Zijun’s biological mother!

“Young Master, the eldest lady is still in Loulan, she is doing well.

She knew that the entire Du family had been executed, and only you, the second young lady, and Aunt Lin were left, so she specifically ordered us to come back and rescue you."

Zhao'er tried hard to force a smile and carefully supported Du Zijun, and his frown relaxed a little.

"Let's get out of here quickly. It will be too late if we don't leave now. The palace is full of spies of Queen Mother Qiao and the dog emperor."

Fearing that they would be discovered later, Zhao'er hurriedly urged Du Zijun and his sister to leave the prison.

But what was unexpected was that just as Du Zijun agreed "OK", Du Zhirou next to him refused.

She took a deep breath, shook off Du Zijun's hand, sneered, and said:

"Leave? There are guards everywhere in and outside the palace. I will die anyway. Why should I mobilize a large army to escape?"

"Anyway, I've already drunk the poisoned wine given by Queen Mother Qiao. Rather than escaping and being hacked to death, I'd rather die in this prison. At least I can keep my body intact!"

Du Zhirou thought that after drinking the poisoned wine, she didn't have much time left, so there was no need to drag down her brother Du Zijun, so she took the initiative to give up the only way to survive.

However, the next second, she was completely shocked.

"Second Miss, the wine you just drank was not poisoned. The poisoned wine given to you by Queen Mother Qiao was switched by Abao and I."

Zhao'er smiled awkwardly, spoke timidly, and began to look a little uncomfortable.

"What? Switching? I'm stunned!... Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Du Zhirou could never have dreamed that Zhao'er could successfully switch the poisoned wine right under Nanny Tian's nose.

It seems that she really underestimated Zhao'er.

"It was too late just now! Haha..."

Zhao'er smiled foolishly and looked at Abao subconsciously.

Abao pursed his lips and spread out his hands, expressing his helplessness.

"Why don't you run away? Are you going to stay here and die?"

What shocked everyone present was that when Du Zhirou heard that she was not poisoned, she ran faster than anyone else.

As soon as she finished speaking, she escaped from the cell and rushed out the door.

Seeing this, Zhao'er and Abao looked at each other in speechlessness, but finally they couldn't help but smile at each other.

"Abao, the king has given instructions. We should do this..."

Seeing that some prisoners next door were beginning to stir, Zhao'er could not help but call Abao over and whispered in his ear.

Po understood instantly, and immediately drew his sword to cut all the chains and opened all the cell doors.

"Run away quickly. If we are found by the soldiers, none of you will be able to escape!"

A Bao cut the chains one by one, hurriedly told all the prisoners to escape, and then quickly returned to Zhao'er and said with a smile:

"Miss Zhao'er, all the prisoners have been released."

Zhao'er raised his eyes and glanced around, and found that there were many prisoners imprisoned in this dark prison, and now they were pouring out like a tide.

She couldn't help but smile and look proud.

"Young Master, let's take this opportunity to escape. There is a carriage waiting for us outside."

Du Zijun was still immersed in a daze, and Zhao'er quickly pulled him out, looking extremely panicked.

Du Zijun didn't know how he escaped from the Heavenly Prison, but on his way out, he engaged in a fierce battle with the Loulan soldiers and the Daye soldiers.

He managed to escape by stepping on the corpses of others.

When Du Zijun got into the carriage, Du Zhirou was already sitting inside, and she was dressing herself up carefully.

It is really hard to imagine that after having just experienced a great disaster, Du Zhirou still has the leisure to dress herself up.

"Zhao'er, where are we going now? You can't take us to Loulan overnight, right?"

Du Zhirou fiddled with it for a long time, and seemed to have thought of something important. Suddenly, she opened the curtain and went out to ask Zhao'er.

"Let me tell you, I am a Daye person in life and I will be a Daye ghost in death. Even if we can't go back to the Du Mansion, I will never go to Loulan to seek refuge with that little bitch Du Qingwan."

Before Zhao'er could reply, Du Zhirou got anxious and started chattering non-stop again.

It can be heard that even though Du Qingwan had just sent people to rescue Du Zhirou and her brother, Du Zhirou still had a very strong resistance to her.

Not to mention Zhao'er was confused, even Du Zijun was completely speechless.

He looked at his sister Du Zhirou with confusion, and said:

"Sister, we have nowhere to go now. Going to Loulan is also the right choice..."

"What do you know? We are the people of Daye. Can we have a good life if we go to Loulan?

Besides, Du Qingwan is now the queen of Loulan.

I couldn't defeat her in Daye. If I really went to Loulan, wouldn't I be her meat on the chopping board, at her mercy?"

Du Zijun was about to explain when Du Zhirou interrupted him angrily with a very bad tone.

The most ridiculous thing is that she actually kept saying that she was a citizen of Daye and could not betray her country and go to Loulan to seek glory.

"People of Daye? How ridiculous! Sister, you love Daye so much, but has Daye ever loved you?"

Although Du Zijun has just reached the age of 15, he is not stupid.

Hearing that his sister was still proud of being a citizen of Daye, he was immediately furious and couldn't help but question her.

"Let alone the fact that you are the emperor's concubine and have been the most favored by everyone, what about us in the Du family?

What crime did our Du family commit? Why did we all get executed? "

Du Zijun became angrier and angrier as he spoke. Veins on his face began to pop out and he clenched his fists involuntarily.

Thinking back to the time when he and his father had fought in countless battlefields and killed countless enemies, but in the end ended up with a tragic end where his entire family was executed, he naturally felt extremely unwilling.

It was a pity that when death was imminent, her own elder sister was still protecting Daye, and she strongly resisted the risk of breaking into the prison to rescue her elder sister.

"When the dog emperor forced my elder sister to marry in Loulan in order to protect his daughter Princess Yunluo, and when he killed more than a hundred people in my Du family, did he ever think that you are the daughter of the Du family and a citizen of Daye?!"

"What's funny is that they just gave you poisoned wine and three feet of white silk, and now you are actually offering them to the heavens!"

Du Zijun said this angrily, and his eyes were immediately filled with murderous intent.

Of course, he did not intend to kill his sister Du Zhirou, but he wanted to take the dog emperor's head right now to commemorate the lives of more than a hundred people in the Du family.

Du Zhirou was speechless after being confronted by her brother. She could only sit aside in silence, but her little mouth was still pouted high, looking very reluctant.

Seeing this, Zhao'er was too lazy to explain. He just smiled bitterly and continued to follow the carriage.
