Chapter 421: The Prince is such a heartless person
Dongzi's face was full of admiration for his master, which made Xingwu feel jealous.
Their prince is also very powerful. He is the undefeated god of war of Daqing and no one can defeat him.
*
Northern Qi, dungeon of the Prince’s Mansion.
Long Yi was tied to a pillar with wounds all over his body. There was hardly a piece of healthy flesh on his body, and he was also poisoned.
Situ Lian did not give him an antidote, and no one knew what method she used to temporarily control the poison so that it would not spread.
Situ Lian was sitting on the armchair at the moment, looking lazy, which was out of place in the environment of this dungeon.
"I'll ask you again, what is your relationship with my Crown Princess?"
Long Yi raised his eyes slightly and looked at Situ Lian, sneering, "Companion."
"Companion? What companion? You have been with my wife all these years?"
"Isn't the prince very powerful? You can investigate it yourself."
"Do you think I can't find out? I'm giving you a chance, a chance to survive. The number one assassin in the Assassin's Alliance, Long Yi. These years... I heard that you followed the Regent Princess of Daqing?"
Long Yi's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything. He really didn't expect Situ Lian to investigate so quickly.
"So, Qingyu has been following the Regent Princess all these years?"
"Then what is your purpose for coming here this time? What role does the Regent of Daqing play in this?"
"Are you here to gather information? What information? What does Chu Chenfeng want to know?"
······
Although Long Yi was seriously injured, his mind was working rapidly. Qingyu was unwilling to let the master come with her, of course, it was also to protect the master. The master's current status was awkward, and if she was involved, it might bring her a lot of trouble.
"Oh, Prince, are you overthinking this? Don't you know why Qingyu came to Northern Qi? You caused her family to be destroyed, shouldn't she seek revenge? She has stayed by the side of the Regent Princess all these years, just to repay you for saving her life. After repaying the favor, of course she has to settle her personal grudge. Prince, you don't think this matter can be let go so easily, right?"
Situ Lian's eyes were gloomy and childish, "That's between me and her."
"Yes, the prince is right. We have been companions for many years. She wants revenge, and I will help her. It's that simple."
Situ Lian stood up slowly, "There is nothing else between you?"
"What is the 'other' that the prince is talking about? Love between a man and a woman or loyalty as a companion?"
"Don't try to be clever with me. I'm not blind."
Long Yi moved his body slightly, and his hands and feet were locked with iron chains made of black iron, making bursts of noise.
"I am pleased with her."
Situ Lian took a few steps forward and stared at him fiercely, "What about her?"
"She? Haha. Because of you, she has long lost all love. In her heart, there is only revenge. For me, there is only the loyalty of a companion. Is the prince satisfied with this?"
Situ Lian seemed to be relieved, but the look she gave Long Yi was still not friendly. However, she had passed this hurdle for today.
Situ Lian turned to leave, and when she reached the entrance of the prison, she suddenly turned her head back, "She is protecting you just because we are friends?"
Long Yi met Situ Lian's scrutinizing gaze with a smile, "The prince is such a heartless and untrustworthy person, so naturally he doesn't understand."
Situ Lian gave him another grim look, "You're still tough, so just keep fighting and save your life."
"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
After Situ Lian left, a clerk in the corner raised his head slightly. His dark face was not outstanding, but he had a pair of particularly bright eyes. This person was none other than Ban Bench who had changed his appearance.
He observed the people in the cell unnoticeably. There were five of them now. It was not difficult for him to deal with them. A packet of medicine would be enough. The difficult part was how to take Long Yi out.
Everyone was guarding around the Prince's Mansion, and the only ones who managed to sneak in were him and Kuaizi, and no one knew where Kuaizi had gone now.
A man who looked like a small leader sat down on the armchair after the prince left. "Oh, I'm so tired. You guys, take turns to fight me. I don't have the strength to fight anymore. I don't know what you ate to make your bones so hard."
A man with a pointed chin and monkey-like face who looked like a bad guy came up to the little leader and said, "Brother Tiger, it's time for dinner now. How about we go out and eat something first and then come back? This guy can't escape anyway. After we've eaten and drunk enough, hehehe, it won't be too late to deal with him later."
The man called Brother Tiger turned his neck and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's already 12:00."
"It's so late? No wonder I'm so hungry. Let's go, eat and drink something before coming back."
"Okay, okay."
The other people swarmed around Brother Tiger and were about to go out. Banben was overjoyed. It was like God was helping him. He was just worried that he had no chance.
As a result, Brother Hu, who was walking to the door, suddenly turned around and said, "Goudan, Goudan?"
After calling out twice without any response, the man with the pointed face and monkey cheeks ran over to the bench and kicked him, "What are you daydreaming about? Brother Tiger is calling you, are you deaf?"
Only then did Ban Bench realize that the "Goudan" was calling him, and he hurriedly smiled and said, "Brother Hu, what do you want to call me for?"
You know what, Bandeng’s imitation of the accent is quite realistic.
"We are going out to eat. You stay here and don't run around. Got it?"
"Oh, okay, I won't go anywhere."
Seeing how obedient he was, Brother Hu nodded in satisfaction and said, "Don't worry, I'll bring you food when I come back."
"Thank you, Brother Hu. Brother Hu is the best to us brothers."
The man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks curled his lips. He was usually silent, but today he started to flatter.
After these five people left, the cell became exceptionally quiet.
Long Yi, who had closed his eyes to rest after Situ Lian left, opened his eyes and looked at the man named "Goudan".
"Goudan" happened to be looking at Long Yi at this moment, grinning. His teeth looked particularly white against his dark skin, and also particularly... silly.
Long Yi closed his eyes slightly, "Are you the only one coming in?"
Bench raised an eyebrow, "There are still chopsticks, but I don't know where the dead person is now."
Ban Bench immediately took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and fed Long Yi a detoxification pill.
He had been in the cell for so long that he knew that the boss was poisoned. Although he didn't know what the poison was, the antidote pill of Doctor Xuan could cure 90% of the poisons in the world, so it should be useful.
Long Yi swallowed the pill with difficulty.
Ban Bench untied his handcuffs and leg cuffs, and helped him sit aside, "Boss, how did you get into this state? Have you seen Sister Qingyu? The prince was talking about Sister Qingyu just now, right?"
Long Yi did not answer him, "Send a message to the master and explain the situation here to her clearly."
In his current situation, it would be difficult to rescue Qingyu. He underestimated the enemy. He didn't expect that Situ Lian was really someone who should not be underestimated.
The bench said bluntly, "When you were arrested, we had already sent a message back."
Long nodded, "Qingyu was imprisoned in the secret room of Situ Lian's study. A jade ornament on his bookshelf was the trap. If he hadn't transferred Qingyu, she should still be there."
