The ancient martial arts master traveled through time

Chapter 169: Dealing with Prisoners [1]

That woman is powerful and difficult to deal with, with a perverted personality and lustful nature. If my seventh brother is caught, he will definitely be humiliated.

“Say…she said…”

Xiao Yize seemed to be hesitant to speak, and finally opened his mouth under Ye Tingshen's cold gaze and said, "She said that the Seventh Prince should stay in Qin as a hostage for life, and told us not to try to rescue him. Otherwise, the throne of Zidan will be taken by someone else." General Xiao felt very uncomfortable after he finished speaking. He lowered his head and listened to Ye Tingshen's final decision.

"Does she mean that Seventh Brother should stay in Zidan for life?"

"Be tortured? Be tortured by her for the rest of my life?"

When Ye Tingshen heard the news, his face remained calm, but his fists were clenched tightly and his eyes narrowed.

Zidan originally had a strong army, but now he has been corrupted by his good father and good brother, and there are no good soldiers and no good generals. But he can't just replace the emperor at will.

Over the past half month, he summoned all his subordinates and troops, and planned for three days and three nights before he successfully forced the emperor to abdicate and took the throne that originally belonged to him.

Everything was about to be within his grasp, but now the battle on the front line was defeated and his seventh brother was captured, which caught him off guard. His seventh brother was the one who treated him most respectfully among all his brothers.

In fact, he was not optimistic about this war because he expected defeat.

Zidan now needs to avoid war and rest his country, slowly recuperate and gather strength, and then make a comeback in the future, and things will gradually get better.

It's not a big deal that my seventh brother was captured. We can just find a way to rescue him. But if that woman wants to forcibly imprison my seventh brother for life, it might be difficult to rescue him.

Thinking about the suffering he had endured in Qin, his seventh brother might not be able to endure it. He really couldn't bear to let his seventh brother suffer that kind of pain.

Thinking of this, he asked again: "Besides these, what else did the woman say?"

General Xiao originally saw his prince's gloomy face and silence, indicating that he had no intention of rescuing the Seventh Prince. It was also true that Zi Dan couldn't afford to offend a witch like that at the moment, so cultivating one's character was the best option.

Hearing his own prince ask again, he thought for a moment and told the truth: "She said that there is only one way to get the Seventh Prince back..."

Ye Ting thought deeply about it. He knew that it must not be a good condition. The woman was very cruel.

Xiao Yize thought for a moment and said, "If you want the Seventh Prince to return to the country, let Your Highness go and exchange him yourself." After saying that, Xiao Yize closed his eyes. He didn't want either of them to go. The Qin State was a den of dragons and tigers, a wolf's lair that would eat people without leaving any bones. The fact that Your Highness had been humiliated there for five years was the best proof of that.

Ye Tingshen's heart was pounding. This was the condition! He was a little surprised, but he also knew it was reasonable.

Having been marked by Ruan Xiaojiu, it was different after all. Furthermore, he couldn't get close to other women now, and he would never have children with anyone else in his lifetime. Even if he became emperor, he wouldn't be safe. He knew this clearly. Ultimately, he cared about Ruan Xiaojiu. He clenched his fists, tightening them again and again. He couldn't tell what he was feeling, a mixture of excitement and anticipation.

Suddenly, he thought of how he had suffered in the water dungeon for several months, and Ruan Xiaojiu did not come to rescue him. His thoughts were instantly poured with a bucket of cold water.

But while he was suffering, what he often thought of was the days he spent with Ruan Xiaojiu in the general's mansion. It couldn't be said to be very beautiful, but it was definitely the most comfortable time Qingfeng had at that time.

There are two villains in his heart. On the one hand, he thinks about Ruan Xiaojiu's good things, but on the other hand, he does not trust Ruan Xiaojiu. He is in a dilemma.

Ruan Xiaojiu, did she still care about him? Did she still have a little affection for him? Then why hadn't she come to his rescue for so long while he was imprisoned in that dark water dungeon? Was she stuck with something?

He began to find a suitable excuse for Ruan Xiaojiu. She must be busy forcing the emperor to revolt and that was why she was too busy. That was right. With an emperor like that in Qingfeng, it was only a matter of time before he was deposed.

So what did she mean? What was she thinking? Should I go back to her?

She had clearly asked him to exchange for Seventh Brother. She actually cared about him and wanted him to return to her side! So why was he still hesitating? He was overthinking it so much. Why not just ask him in person and find out?

Thinking of this, his expression softened, and he said to Xiao Yizhe, "I'll go and exchange Seventh Brother back. If he's held there for life, he'll definitely go crazy. I've only been there for five years, so five years or fifty years is no different to me."

"Your Highness, you can't do that. If you go, I'm afraid it won't be any better." Xiao Yizhe hadn't expected the prince to be so loyal to the Seventh Prince. He would rather continue to suffer in exchange for the Seventh Prince. What a deep brotherly bond this must be! He was deeply moved. But he also felt sorry for the prince.

"If I don't go, my seventh brother will have a hard time surviving. Do you want him to die in Qin?"

"I dare not. That is not what I meant. I just feel sorry for His Majesty."

Ye Tingshen certainly knew that he didn't dare, and he also knew his character. The reason he said that was to prevent him from jumping out to stop him.

Ye Tingshen didn't say anything for a while.

Xiao Yize didn't dare to say anything more. He looked at his prince's face and saw that he didn't seem very angry, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

The prince's feelings for the Seventh Prince are really good! When the Seventh Prince comes back, he must tell the Seventh Prince what price the prince paid for him. He can't let this affection be buried. Xiao Yize thought to himself.
