Female martial arts fanatics only love to fight, while men fight for their lives.

The Duke of Zhenguo, a favorite of Her Majesty the Queen, was thrown into prison.

Coupled with the previous criticism of Li Huaiqing and the sudden death of King Hanhai, a strange atmosphere permeated the capital.

Only some officials shouted "Long live your Majesty", saying that Your Majesty is wise and wise.

The survivor of the Shan family left his testimony at the Ministry of Justice and then disappeared in the capital.

When Lou Hong heard the news at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, his heart finally settled down.

Since Lou Xiao did not like the marriage relationship in the Zhenguo Mansion, now that something had happened, he couldn't even find anyone to make concessions.

"Illusory favor is unreliable after all." Lou Hong sighed.

To prevent any further incidents, Lou Hong had the door closed and has been keeping a low profile ever since.

Fortunately, the first time is unfamiliar, and this is not the first time that the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion has encountered such a disaster. Life has ups and downs,

This time, no one knows what kind of opportunity will allow the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion to regain its glory.

The cold and damp dark prison was originally a place where dangerous and serious criminals were imprisoned. It had been many years since a new criminal had been so guarded against, not to mention that he was chained.

If you say she is dangerous, she has the softest bed, a table, chairs and a dressing table.

Even the candlesticks were gilded, and the arm-thick candles were filled with a calming scent that spread everywhere in the dark prison as it burned.

It doesn't feel like being in prison.

What's more, the woman sitting cross-legged on the bed - dressed gorgeously, with her eyes closed, like a beautiful statue, making it impossible to take your eyes off her.

She suddenly opened her eyes from her deep meditation and looked towards a shadow. Her voice was cold and clear.

"What are you doing hiding in the dark? Are you afraid of me?"

The person in the dark smiled slightly, and a silver vine pattern was outlined on the food box he was holding, and then his whole body stepped into the light.

Her hair was half tied up, and she wore a light grass-green gauze gown with a familiar jade pendant hanging around her waist—Li Huaiqing.

"How could I be afraid of you?"

He seemed particularly fresh in this cold and dark prison, as if the heavy air had been refreshed by his arrival.

Lou Xiao had thought about anyone coming here, but never thought it would be him.

"Haven't you been reprimanded by His Majesty? Why are you still here?"

Lou Xiao changed his sitting posture, looking somewhat uninhibited, and asked Li Huaiqing through the iron cell door.

"Your Majesty has never refused to allow me to come."

He turned around and signaled the people behind him to open the cell door, but Lou Xiao spoke up to stop them.

"If you have nothing else to do, don't stay here. The dark prison is cold and gloomy. I can stand it, but you may not."

Li Huaiqing said nonchalantly, "It's not like I haven't seen the Dark Prison before, why do you have to say such words to scare me?"

He came in with a food box, put it on the table, opened it and arranged it one by one. They were all snacks unique to the Li family.

Sophisticated and delicious.

Lou Xiao's eyes moved slightly. Those were her favorite foods. Li Huaiqing paused after arranging the dishes.

He turned to look at her, his eyes landing on her wrist.

The chains on her arms were so thick that they bound her hands and she fell to the ground.

Then it was fixed on the wall in a winding manner, which was the treatment only given to death row prisoners.

Why is this so?

He lowered his eyelids to hide the movement in his eyes. Seeing that Lou Xiao was motionless, he thought she couldn't get out of bed.

So he asked, "I'll bring it to you. Which one do you want to eat?"

Does he have to serve her himself?

Seeing the jailer quickly slip away, Lou Xiao raised his chin and said unceremoniously, "Just take that plate of walnut cakes first, it looks like it's still warm."

Li Huaiqing readily followed suit, brought it over and sat down beside the bed, picked up a piece with one hand and put it to her mouth, really thinking that she was tied up and unable to move.
