Chapter 419: The Little Palace Maid Reluctant to End Her Life (26)

Taoxi didn't dare to tell Yao all the words that slandered the Crown Princess.

But even so, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still had a gloomy expression as if he wanted to kill someone.

She didn't dare to breathe, fearing that she would be punished the next moment.

Unexpectedly, the Crown Princess, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke:

"Tell them to go down."

Mu Zhou's voice was soft and a little muffled.

How could Qin Huai not obey? He immediately waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.

He saw Mu Zhou slightly raise her face, and couldn't help but hold her cheek with his big hands:

"It's my fault that I made you suffer."

He suppressed his anger and wanted to cut the woman Yao promised into pieces.

Mu Zhou trembled as she placed her hands on his, rubbing her soft cheeks against his palms lovingly.

"Don't blame your highness, it's just that I'm too timid."

The corners of her eyes were slightly red, and she couldn't help but talk about the past with grievance.

"When Yao was still Concubine Yao, the Emperor once threatened to burn my face with fire because he looked at me for a second longer. I was timid and had nightmares for a long time afterwards, dreaming of myself being burned to death. I was so scared that I couldn't sleep."

Mu Zhou spoke softly, mixing truth and lies, which made Qin Huai feel unbearable pain.

Mu Zhou said this, put away his grievances and fears, and smiled embarrassedly:

"Just now, when I saw Yao agree, I suddenly remembered this matter again. I didn't react for a moment, which is why Your Highness was worried. It's my fault."

Qin Huai's chest was filled with rage, but his face was calmer. He slowed his voice:

"How can you blame Zhou'er for this? It's their fault."

He patted Mu Zhou's back gently:

"Have a good sleep. When you wake up, I'll take you outside the palace. Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and it's very lively."

"it is good."

Mu Zhou closed his eyes listlessly and soon fell asleep after being coaxed by him.

After she fell asleep and her breathing became steady, Qin Huai gently put her back on the bed and quietly left.

He walked to the palace gate, left a message to Taoxi and others who were waiting outside, "Serve the Crown Princess well, and don't let irrelevant people get close to her and upset her", and then strode away.

After he left, Taoxi and others finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling lucky to have saved their lives.

However, the atmosphere on the other side was not so good.

After Wu Jiang understood the whole story, he returned to the prince to report and told him everything Yao had promised in detail.

Qin Huai's face was calm, but his terrifying aura could not be ignored:

"Burning her alive at the stake, don't let her die too quickly."

His words were as cold as a cold arrow and merciless.

He still remembered the fear Mu Zhou felt when he talked about his dream of being burned to death.

Having caused such a huge shadow on Mu Zhou, he should naturally be punished.

Wu Jiang hesitated for a moment, looking a little embarrassed, as if he had something to say.

Qin Huai glanced at him sideways, and the cold look made Wu Jiang kneel on the ground:

"Your Highness, Na Yao promised to tell you something. It concerns the Crown Princess, so I dare not be careless."

Wu Jiang didn't want to pass on the message on his behalf. Who knew what Yao would say if she agreed to do so and anger the prince?

But the matter involved the Crown Princess, so he had to take it seriously. Na Yao agreed very stubbornly and insisted on meeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before she would tell him.

Qin Huai's brows darkened, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.

"Go to the dark cell."

*

In the dark cell, the veil covering Yao's face had been torn off.

She lay on the ground, feeling humiliated and embarrassed like never before.

Her life had been smooth sailing, but ever since she met Mu Zhou, she had repeatedly stumbled upon him, and step by step she had ended up in this situation.

Now she no longer cares about him, and like a madman she just wants to drag Mu Zhou into hell with her.

In front of the East Palace, she saw Mu Zhou being carried back to the palace by the prince, and she thought he was very favored.

This deeply stimulated her.

The paranoid girl no longer sought to survive at this point, and it didn't matter if she offended the prince. As long as she could see Mu Zhou being despised and having a miserable death, it would be worth it.

Finally, footsteps were heard in the dark cell.

Yao agreed to have her hands and feet tied, but she still struggled to raise her head.

When she saw clearly that the tall and noble figure was the prince, she raised the corners of her lips in satisfaction.

Wu Jiang dragged his voice and said:

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is here, if you have anything to say, please speak quickly."

The guard brought a chair and Qin Huai sat down, casually smoothing the wrinkles on his wide cuffs.

When he looked up at Yao and agreed, his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Qin Huai had cold and stern facial features, and normally even a slight chill on his face was enough to frighten people. Now that he was deliberately releasing his aura of oppression, it was even more terrifying.

Only Qin Huai and Wu Jiang were left in the dark cell.

Yao Da Ying raised her head with scars all over her face. When she met Qin Huai's gaze, she felt a little timid, but she still forced herself to look him in the eye.

"Your Highness, do you know anything about your Crown Princess?"

She spoke contemptuously, her tone mocking and disdainful:

"That shameless bitch seduced the Emperor. Does Your Highness know about this? She's already been having an affair with the Emperor, and now, with her broken body, she's trying to cling to Your Highness. What a clever trick."

After she finished speaking, she carefully observed the prince. Seeing that his expression did not change at all from beginning to end, she hurriedly added:

"If Your Highness doesn't believe me, you can ask the Emperor, or Su Hai, who is by His Majesty's side. The Emperor killed everyone around me for her. Your Highness is so noble, how could he be defiled by such a lowly person?"

Yao agreed and thought that no man could accept such a thing.

What's more, he is the extremely noble prince.

Mu Zhou must have had a miserable end.

Thinking of this, Yao Da Ying showed a ferocious look of satisfaction on his face.

Unexpectedly, even so, the prince still had a calm expression, no anger, no humiliation, and no violence after realizing he was betrayed.

He was eerily calm.

Yao agreed but suddenly felt uneasy.

Just as he was about to say something else, he heard Qin Huai suddenly say:

"Execution."

Before Yao Da Ying could react, two guards appeared and held her down. One of the guards then slowly approached her holding an iron brand that had been burned by fire.

Her eyes widened:

“No, what are you going to do…ah…”

Screams echoed in the dark cell.

Qin Huai's expression remained unchanged as he slowly stood up.

"Let her hold on a little longer."

"Yes."

The candlelight in the dark cell cast a shadow on his face, making his already cold features even more sinister.

Qin Huai didn't continue to waste time here.

Although he was busy with official duties, he had already promised Zhou'er that he would accompany her to the market.

We can't let Zhou'er wait in vain.

It’s better to go back early to handle official business.

Leaving behind screams, Qin Huai left.

*

When Mu Zhou Youyou woke up, he had already learned from 0001 that Yao promised to be burned to death.

She was not surprised.

Since returning to the East Palace, she has been surrounded by people all the time, making it inconvenient for her to move around.

Now using Qin Huai is just the right way to help her complete her task.

She was in a good mood and stayed in bed for a while longer, then she heard the palace maids paying their respects.

Qin Huai is back.

He walked to the bed and saw Mu Zhou looking at him with his sleepy eyes, and his heart calmed down.

He curled his lips:

"Have you slept enough? I'll take you out."
