As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Er's expression became ferocious. He struggled hard, trying to break free from the chains and pounced on Su Manman: "Who are you? Who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am." Su Manman stood there and did not retreat.

"But your face does look like someone."

The girl's face could not be seen clearly under the veil, and in the light of the torch, only a pair of sharp lips could be seen.

"The former ninth prince of Huanyue Kingdom, Mo Daoxi." She said with certainty.

When this name came out, everyone present was shocked.

Wu Xiaowen glanced at Wang Er, then at Su Manman, and then turned to look at Ye Mo.

Ye Mo looked at Wang Er with sharp eyes and sneered, "So it's you."

It really takes no effort to get it without trying to find anywhere.

Twenty years ago, the Huanyue Kingdom encountered a political turmoil. The king's favorite ninth prince was accused of plotting to usurp the throne. His title of prince was abolished and he was demoted to a commoner.

That night, his mother hanged herself in the palace.

The Ninth Prince was hunted down all the way by the future Crown Prince Mo Daoran, who vowed to take his life.

Unexpectedly, he evaded multiple waves of pursuit and escaped all the way, and there has been no news since then.

This incident has been a hot topic of conversation among people after dinner in the Daqianguo Restaurant and Teahouse.

People have been wondering where the Ninth Prince, who is talented in both literature and martial arts, and possesses both moral integrity and ability, is.

Is he dead or alive?

Could that person be the one in front of me?

"I didn't expect that!"

“I really didn’t expect that!”

Wang Er suddenly laughed out loud, looking up to the sky. As he laughed, his smile froze, and it was uglier than crying. "For nearly twenty years, I have never shown my true face to anyone. I never expected to be seen through by a stranger."

He tilted his head and glanced at Su Manman, "Tell me, how did you recognize me?"

"It does not matter."

Su Manman was unwilling to answer. After confirming his identity, she looked solemn and asked again, "The poison bowl sent to the Su Mansion was made by His Highness?"

"Aren't you sure?" he asked her.

"It's really you!"

This person is her enemy.

In the previous life, his mother died because of his poison.

"I have heard of His Highness Mo Daoxi's reputation many times since I was a child."

"Many people say that although he is the prince of an enemy country, he is a reasonable man. In Huanyue Country, many people support him."

"Five years ago, the Huanyue Kingdom was broken up and split into the Huanyue Kingdom and the Huanri Kingdom. To this day, many people still sigh. If His Highness the Ninth Prince were still alive, the country wouldn't have been split in two, leaving loved ones so close yet unable to see each other."

Su Manman looked at Mo Daoxi and sneered, "If those people knew that the high and mighty Ninth Prince in their minds actually disguised himself as a kiln worker for a woman."

"For a woman, I have to do dirty things day in and day out for over a decade."

"What do you think they will think?"

"Are you threatening me?" Mo Daoxi yelled with bloodshot eyes.

"Don't call yourself Your Highness. Remember, the Huanyue Kingdom has long been destroyed, and you are now a prisoner."

Su Manman said disdainfully, "Besides, you will eventually pay the price for all the stupid things you have done."

"Okay, I admit, you're smart."

Mo Daoxi sneered and said, "I did everything, it has nothing to do with Liu Xianglan."

"She is just a concubine of the Su family."

"You don't have to pick on her."

At this moment, he was still so protective of that woman.

Killing someone must destroy the heart.

Su Manman shook her head. "According to the people in Tianxin Village, when that poor young man was stranded here, he suffered severe pain and became blind. It was a girl who saved him."

"The girl let him live in her yard and took care of him, treating his poison and wounds."

"One day, when the young master was away, the house he was staying at was engulfed in flames. Everyone in the house was burned to death, leaving only the young girl, who fled to the capital with her aunt."

"The young master in distress, despite his eye disease, has also caught up with the capital."

"The impoverished young man recovered from his eye disease and searched the capital for a long time, thinking he had found his savior. He blindly identified her and obeyed her orders."

"In fact, the young master in distress didn't know that the girl who saved his life had already died in the fire."

"What did you say?" Mo Daoxi was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "Stop talking nonsense."

"That beautiful and kind girl is Liu Xianglan's cousin Liu Xiangyu."

"You only know that she is the eldest daughter of the Liu Mansion. There is only one daughter in the Liu Mansion."

"You don't know that Miss Liu is the eldest in our family, so the maids around her also call her 'Miss Liu'."

"A beautiful and kind-hearted girl would easily rescue a seriously injured and distressed young man and personally serve him. How could she come to the capital, marry as a concubine, and then embarrass her mistress everywhere and harm her young daughter?"

"She is indifferent to money and treats the wounded. How could she seize the opportunity to forge a porcelain vase and break her mother-in-law's heart?"

"Mo Daoxi, have you never doubted that you recognized the wrong savior?"

"You think that the fire exposed your identity and implicated her entire family, so you feel guilty and are willing to do anything to make it up to her?"

Mo Daoxi seemed struck by lightning, his eyes blank as he shook his head. "What else do you know? Tell me, how did the fire happen?"

Su Manman didn't answer and walked out.

"Stop and tell me, how did the fire start?"

"Tell me! What's going on?"

Su Manman walked out of the prison, looked up, and was stunned.

In the dark passage, Su Tinggui stood there, leaning against the wall with his back hunched.

Hearing the noise, he raised his head and looked at Su Manman with an indescribable strange look in his eyes.

Behind her, Ye Mo walked slowly and stood in front of her.

Su Tinggui had no choice but to stand up straight, bow and say: "I pay my respects to His Majesty the Prince of Qi."

He should have heard what he should have heard.

Ye Mo said nothing, blocked Su Manman by his side, and walked straight out.

After leaving the Dali Temple prison gate, he got on a carriage with a green tent.

The two of them didn't speak for a long time.

Su Manman felt that Ye Mo must have many questions in his mind.

For example, how could an orphan girl who was raised in Jiangyang see through the man's disguise?

How could one identify at a glance that he was the Ninth Prince of the former Huanyue Kingdom?

Her mind was in turmoil, wondering how she could explain herself so that he wouldn't keep questioning her.

Unexpectedly, after getting on the carriage, he didn't ask a single question.

He lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked towards the entrance of the Dali Temple prison.

Su Tinggui followed them out the door.

He staggered and when he reached the last two steps, he tripped and almost fell to the ground.

He stood up in a panic, staggered to the carriage nearby, and with the help of the servants, he finally climbed onto the carriage with great effort.

Su Manman looked at the departing carriage and said quietly, "His beloved daughter ordered people to cut down trees, which caused him to injure his leg. He must be very sad."
