Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Jones Snow nodded gratefully upon hearing Xiao Ce's words.

In the evening, people would always get up and walk back and forth.

However, he did not make any move towards Xiao Ce and Jones Snow.

They just walked back and forth.

No one did anything to them until the next day.

However, staying vigilant at all times is more exhausting than not sleeping at all.

After the night, Xiao Ce looked at Jones Snow's exhausted expression.

Xiao Ce had a vague idea of ​​what their plan was.

The simplest word is "endure hardship".

However, Xiao Ce thought, were those people stupid? Didn't they know that even if they didn't sleep at night...

They can still catch up on sleep in the workshop during the day.

The two of them, yawning constantly, were led to a place for breakfast.

Seeing that Xiao Ce also looked like he hadn't woken up yet, Jones Snow quickly said, "Boss Ce, this is their plan. They're going to mentally break us down."

Xiao Ce chuckled: "You figured it out too, huh? That's right, that's exactly what they're thinking..."

Jones Snow said to Xiao Ce, "Boss Ce, you can sleep soundly now. From now on, I'll be in charge of keeping watch at night. We'll handle them, won't we?"

Xiao Ce shook his head: "That's not the issue. I'm naturally very vigilant. It's impossible for someone to walk around next to me without me reacting."

Jones Snow said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, why don't we just sleep in the workshop during the day?"

Xiao Ce said to Jones Snow, "Use your brain. They've already made arrangements for the night. Do you think they'll let us sleep peacefully during the day?"

Jones Snow looked at Xiao Ce with some surprise and said, "I don't think anyone would dare to hit us from inside the prison cell."

Xiao Ce said to Jones Snow, "That's hard to say... We'll find out when we go check it out..."

Jones Snow said to Xiao Ce, "That's right, Boss Ce, you should go catch up on your sleep later... I'll keep an eye on things for you."

Xiao Ce nodded after hearing what Jones Snow said.

He didn't refuse, he just nodded: "No problem, I'll switch with you this afternoon..."

After eating a simple meal, they went to the workshop.

Once inside the workshop, everything went exactly as Xiao Ce had predicted.

He thought that the prisoners in the jail cell would come to cause him trouble later.

Unexpectedly, it was a prison guard here.

Xiao Ce had been on guard all night and was so tired that he just wanted to go to sleep.

To his surprise, just as he lay down to start the meeting, a prison guard tapped him in the face with a baton.

Xiao Ce woke up immediately after being knocked on like that.

He then looked at the prison guard with a puzzled expression and said, "Sir, is there something you need?"

The prison guards glanced at Xiao Ce, but instead of answering directly, they coughed.

“Our warden held a meeting with us last night, telling us to correct our work attitude in the workshop. Those of you who would rather be fined than sleep here should just use your work hours to ask for leave and go sleep in the cell.”

"The workshop is for you to work, not to sleep! From now on, if you want to sleep, go to the prison. Since you're here, you have to work."

After the prison guard finished speaking.

Jones Snow and Xiao Ce exchanged a glance.

Both of them were indeed quite surprised, because they hadn't expected Frank to be so capable.

You can directly ask someone to change the rules, but you can't say that the rule change is wrong.

They just want to correct discipline, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Conspiracy!

There's no way to counter this open scheme!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ce said to the prison guard, "Sir... I just want to sleep in the workshop. I have insomnia in my cell, but I sleep more comfortably in the workshop..."

After Xiao Ce asked this question, Jones Snow's expression changed slightly.

He was really worried for Xiao Ce.

The people in the workshop burst into laughter.

Then his gaze turned towards Xiao Ce.

The prison guard's face immediately darkened; "You can try, we'll take you to sleep in a dark room..."

Xiao Ce smiled but didn't continue.

After all, continuing the conversation would be a bit of a provocation.

Although Xiao Ce didn't take the provocation of these prison guards seriously at all.

However, it's best not to offend too many people right now; his outsiders probably aren't prepared.

After the prison guard finished speaking, everyone was allowed to continue their work.

Jones Snow said to Xiao Ce, "Boss Ce, what should we do next?"

Xiao Ce said to Jones Snow, "What else can we do? Let's just hold on today..."

Jones Snow said, "We're working now, and those guys are definitely resting... By the time we get back, they'll be fully rested. Once they're rested, they can come and wear us down... They won't need to sleep... We'll go crazy in a couple of days..."

Xiao Ce's eyes darted around, and then he said, "It's alright. Don't we have a lunch break? Let's rest a bit more during the lunch break. I'll naturally have a way to deal with them tonight."

Seeing the ruthless look on Xiao Ce's face, Jones Snow had a vague idea of ​​what he was going to do.

He nodded.

Xiao Ce was sitting with his back to the prison guard, and he had a knack for taking naps.

He simply asked Jones Snow to keep an eye on things for him.

He actually slept sitting up for half a day, and his sleep quality was surprisingly good.

By evening, Jones Snow's face looked terrible.

His face looked extremely haggard.

Because he hadn't had a proper rest for three days in a row.

If it weren't for strong willpower, most people wouldn't have been able to hold on.

Back in their cell, Frank and his men saw Jones Snow's face, which looked like he could die at any moment.

They were laughing so happily.

Xiao Ce said to Jones Snow, "Jones, you don't need to worry about anything later. Just go to sleep."

Jones Snow looked surprised after hearing Xiao Ce's words, and then said, "Boss Ce, is this appropriate?"

After listening to Jones Snow's words, Xiao Ce smiled and nodded, "Don't worry...it's fine. If you don't get a good night's sleep, I feel like you're about to suddenly die..."

Jones Snow listened to Xiao Ce's words with gratitude and then nodded.

Jones Snow nodded and got into bed.

This guy was exhausted; he fell asleep as soon as he hit the bed.

A short while later, he started snoring loudly.

After hearing Jones Snow's snoring.

Xiao Ce glanced at Frank and his group.

Frank glanced at the person next to him.

Those people then started moving and walked towards Jones Snow.

Given Jon Snow's previous wariness, he would definitely find out immediately...

However, at this moment, Jones Snow trusted Xiao Ce completely, and he didn't react at all.

He was truly relieved to see Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce naturally wouldn't disappoint him; he immediately stood up.

Those men frowned slightly when they saw Xiao Ce get up.

Xiao Ce could see weapons subtly concealed beneath their clothing...

Judging from its shape, it should be a cold weapon...

As long as it's not a firearm, it's fine.

They said to Xiao Ce, "We're not coming to find you, so don't come looking for trouble..."

Xiao Ce said, "It won't work to talk to him; he's my underling."

Those men said, "Do you think we're really afraid of you just because we didn't join you in fighting?"

Xiao Ce said to them, "Isn't that right? You didn't bully me because you were afraid of me, right? Otherwise, am I your father? Would you have stayed away from me?"

The leader looked grim, and it seemed he was about to join Xiao Ce in making a move.

Someone nearby pulled him back.

Just then, Xiao Ce said to them, "I have no intention of causing you trouble, but if any of you come looking for trouble again, I'm not going to be polite..."

"And another thing, if you get up at night, don't make any noise... If anyone disturbs my rest, I'll beat the shit out of you!"

When Xiao Ce said this, he was extremely arrogant.

By this time, Jon Snow had also woken up, although he had only been asleep for less than half an hour.

But that was enough to bring him back to his senses.

He immediately jumped off the bed and instinctively stood protectively in front of Xiao Ce.

When Xiao Ce saw Jones Snow's gesture, he was deeply moved.

Frank's henchmen had very strange expressions.

Seeing that Xiao Ce was being so disrespectful, they were at a loss for what to do.

Frank's henchman, the one with prison number 1002 who hadn't spoken until now, finally spoke up: "Number 1020, you're being far too arrogant. You want to control the sound of us urinating? There's no such logic in this world."

After number 1002 arrived, those who had initially been looking for trouble all chimed in.

As if grasping at a straw, he nodded repeatedly, "That's right...that's right..."

Xiao Ce smiled slightly and said, "Reason? Have you all lost your minds? Do you think you can reason with me here? If I had been defeated by Jones Snow from the start, would you still be talking to me about reason today?"

"When you can win a fight, you say that might makes right, but when you can't, you insist on reasoning? Where's the logic in that?"

Number 1002 said to Xiao Ce, "So, do you really want to go against us?"

Xiao Ce waved his hand: "Of course not, why would I want to go against you? Why do you have to go against me? I'm not afraid of you... To be honest, given your attitude, I'm actually giving Frank some face, otherwise, I would have smashed you to pieces!"

As he spoke, a hint of arrogance appeared on Xiao Ce's face, and he said, "What, are you not convinced? Want to have a go...?"

No one spoke when they heard Xiao Ce say this.

One by one, they reached for the weapons on their bodies.

Xiao Ce said, "If you have any weapons, take them out and try them out... Come on, all of you..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, those who were about to draw their weapons immediately withdrew their hands.

Xiao Ce's lips curled into a wicked smile.

He then said, "Let me tell you the truth too. I didn't want to tell you this, but you all look so foolish. I know what you're thinking; you just want to walk around at night and keep us awake."

"Frank bribed those prison guards to torture me in the workshop, depriving us of sleep. We'll break down in less than seven days... Are you guys playing hard to get?"

As Xiao Ce spoke, he subconsciously glanced at Frank.

After Xiao Ce guessed what Frank had said, his expression shifted slightly...

Xiao Ce continued, "My original intention was to beat anyone who bothered me today until they were half-paralyzed... You all know that no one in this cell is afraid of anyone... But there's no need for that. Everyone locked up here is a miserable bastard."

"Let's not make things difficult for each other... Besides, I don't want to be the boss of this cell... Frank, don't worry, I'm not here to compete with you for the position of prison bully... I won't be staying here long, I'll leave. So, let's keep to ourselves."

Frank, who had been silent until now, heard Xiao Ce's words and then stopped talking.

He scoffed.

Xiao Ce looked at Frank: "Frank, what, you don't believe me?"

Frank wasn't angry when Xiao Ce addressed him by his first name; he just smiled faintly.

He then said, "I know your past... I know who you offended to get in here? You've offended the Lingas City Management Council, the East Asia President, the British Empire, and the other four major families... You say you want to leave? Hmph... What a joke... A huge joke..."

Xiao Ce said to Frank, "Frank, you've investigated me...that's for the best. Don't think that just because you can't do something, I can't do it too...To be honest, I really don't want to waste my energy here with you...would you like to talk to me alone?"

Xiao Ce realized that Frank wasn't stupid enough to insist on being at odds.

At least in the dialogue, goodwill has already been shown.

After listening to Xiao Ce's words, Frank looked at Xiao Ce a few times.

His two henchmen, 1002 and 1003, immediately looked at Frank with wary expressions.

"Brother, don't believe him... he might just be trying to get close to you..."

"That's right, brother, don't trust him. This cunning East Asian man is definitely not a good person..."

Hearing the two men's reminders, Xiao Ce continued to laugh: "You guys are really a joke. It's not that we look down on you, but even if all of you came at me together, you wouldn't be a match for me... If I really wanted to kill Frank, you guys? None of you could stop me..."
