Reborn as a tree, the peerless god is obsessed

Prince Jing's men were everywhere in the palace. In his opinion, the entire palace was already in his pocket.

In order to control the royal family, Prince Jing placed Princess Wan'er under house arrest in a secret room in the harem and sent heavy troops to guard her to prevent her from contacting the outside world.

However, no matter how hard he tried to blockade him, there was one person he could not stop.

Xueyao, like a ghost, quietly avoided all eyes and ears. She passed through palace gate after palace gate and finally arrived at the secret room where Princess Wan'er was.

Outside the secret room, two palace maids and two eunuchs stood guard at the door like four pillars with vigilant expressions.

They were specially placed here by Prince Jing to ensure that Princess Wan'er could not escape. However, how could they stand up to Xue Yao?

Xue Yao disappeared, her eyes, bright as stars, emitting a chill. She stood quietly at the door of the secret room, her eyes slightly narrowed, looking at the four people.

Suddenly, she raised her hand, and an icy blue mist drifted over, transforming them into four true pillars. The four of them were unable to react, feeling only a burst of icy air before being instantly obliterated. Without stopping, Xue Yao walked towards the secret room's door. With a swipe of her sword, the door swung open with a click.

Princess Wan'er had been under house arrest in a secret room for several days. She was sitting alone on a stone bench, her eyes full of worry and despair.

After her mother passed away, Qin Wan'er and her father depended on each other in Xiangshui Village.

During this period, many families invited matchmakers to propose marriage to her, but after experiencing the events in the underground palace, she was unwilling to do so, and her father did not force her.

Although their life was dull, the father and daughter depended on each other and could get by.

However, the good times did not last long. One day half a month ago, the father and daughter had just finished breakfast and had not yet cleaned up the pots and pans when they heard a noise outside the yard.

"What's that sound?" Qin Wan'er put down the dishes in her hands and walked to the door. She saw a group of armored soldiers rushing into the yard and surrounding her and her father.

Her heart was instantly filled with fear. She didn't understand why so many people suddenly appeared here.

"Princess Wan'er, we have been ordered to come and take you back to the palace. Please pack up immediately and we will set off in a quarter of an hour." A leading officer stepped forward and said with a serious expression.

Princess Wan'er?

Where is Princess Wan'er?

Return to the palace?

Which palace are you going back to?

Qin Wan'er was stunned, and so was her father Qin Ming.

"Sir, this is my daughter Qin Wan'er. You have got the wrong person." Qin Ming was extremely anxious.

"Old man, you are right. We are acting according to Qin's orders." The officer smiled. He did not want to offend the princess.

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and more than a dozen people carried several large boxes and cages into the yard.

Qin Wan'er then realized something was wrong. These people were going to get serious. She threw herself into her father's arms and said, "Daddy, I don't want to go with them."

She wanted to resist, but seeing the weapons in the soldiers' hands, she knew she had no chance of winning. She could only look at her father helplessly, tears in her eyes.

Her father sighed and patted her shoulder, "Wan'er, go away and don't worry about me."

She knew what her father meant, but how could she leave him alone? She shook her head and said firmly, "No, I want to be with Daddy."

"Princess Wan'er, please." The officer urged again, his tone unquestionable.

Qin Wan'er and Qin Ming looked at each other, at a loss.

The officer did not give her a chance to choose. A quarter of an hour later, they forcibly took her away, and her father did not dare to resist, nor was he able to resist.

But seeing the soldiers' ferocious looks, they knew resistance was futile. So, Qin Wan'er had no choice but to bid farewell to her father in tears and followed the soldiers out of Xiangshui Village.

She was taken to the carriage, her heart filled with despair. She knew that she might never come back. She closed her eyes and prayed silently, hoping that her father would be safe.

As the carriage sped along the main road of the capital, her heart was filled with fear and anxiety. She didn't know what she would face, nor did she know if she could endure it all.

All of this, in the eyes of the officers and soldiers, was simply ungrateful. Others wouldn't even beg for something like this, yet these father and daughter acted like they were about to be executed. It was truly ridiculous.

They stopped and walked along the way, but Qin Wan'er had no chance of escape.

She was constantly under guard, whether she was eating or sleeping, there was always someone watching her. She tried to resist, but was always severely punished. She knew that resistance would only make her more miserable, so she chose to endure.

After several days of ups and downs, she was finally brought to the palace. However, it was not as prosperous and beautiful as she had imagined, but full of conspiracy and fighting.

Upon entering the palace, she was placed under house arrest in a secret chamber within the harem. This chamber was heavily guarded, with guards everywhere. From then on, she lived a life of darkness, with only the four walls of the chamber to see every day.

Only then did she learn that her name was Murong Wan, known as Princess Wan'er, and that she was the biological daughter of the current emperor. Inexplicably, she had only one father, Qin Ming.

She didn't know what was happening in the outside world, nor did she know whether her father Qin Ming was safe.

She prayed every day, hoping that one day she would be free and return to her father.

At first, she tried to resist and escape, but she was caught by the guards every time and even suffered harsher treatment. She gradually realized that in this palace, she was just a pawn at the mercy of others, without any freedom or choice.

However, for her father's sake, she didn't give up. She told herself she couldn't be imprisoned for the rest of her life; she had to find a way to escape. So, she began searching the secret room for a possible escape. She carefully observed every corner, searching for a possible loophole.

However, the chamber was so solidly constructed that she couldn't find any way to escape.

Just when she was about to despair, the door of the secret room suddenly opened, and a familiar yet unfamiliar figure walked in. That person was Xue Yao, who was like a savior who came from the sky and brought hope to Qin Wan'er.

The moment she saw Xueyao, she was so excited and surprised that she knew she was finally saved.

"Wan'er!" Xue Yao called softly, her eyes full of concern and tenderness.

Qin Wan'er was stunned. She still couldn't believe it.

She raised her hand and bit it. She cried out "ouch" and grimaced in pain. Only then did she realize that this was not an illusion.

She stood up suddenly, rushed towards Xueyao and hugged her: "Sister Xueyao...why are you here?" Her voice trembled.

Xue Yao also hugged Princess Wan'er tightly, her eyes full of questions, but she managed to hold back her doubts and whispered softly, "Wan'er, it's me. I'm here to save you. Don't worry, we will definitely be able to leave this damn place."

Princess Wan'er was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. "Sister Xueyao, thank you, thank you for saving me."

The two hugged each other, and Princess Wan'er sobbed, as if she wanted to pour out all her grievances and worries.

Xueyao patted the back of her hand gently and comforted her, "Wan'er, you're welcome. This is what I should do."

After a while, Xue Yao let go of Princess Wan'er and said softly, "Wan'er, we have to leave here quickly. Prince Jing's men may break in at any time."

Princess Wan'er nodded. She also knew that she couldn't stay here for long.

Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, she forced a smile and said, "Okay."

It goes without saying that Prince Jing's men will set up a tight net inside and outside the palace, waiting for anyone who wants to save Princess Wan'er to fall into the trap.

But when he met Xue Yao and others, he was destined to be disappointed.

Everyone outside the secret room, whether in the light or in the dark, has entered freeze mode.

Xueyao gently raised her hand, letting Princess Wan'er sleep peacefully, and then took her away.
