C468 I want you to die (2/2)
Inside Lian Ruyue's tent, she kneeled on the ground. Lian Ruyue gestured for Qing Dai to help her up and sat on a chair as she asked:
”Greetings, you must tell me everything that happened now. From the moment Princess Eleven receives the orders from the emperor to accompany her in the 13th Princess' tent, don't miss a single detail.”
”Yes, County Lord, it's like this. Princess Eleven originally had her own tent, but Princess Thirteen said Lian Zhaoyi wasn't here. She was afraid of living alone, so she invited Princess Eleven over …”
Zhili recounted everything that had happened in detail.
”It seems that Thirteenth Princess wanted to harm the Eleventh Princess for a long time. I heard that during the last birthday banquet, my father begged the Emperor for help so that the Eleventh Princess could leave the palace. Now, I think about it, she wanted to do something to the Eleventh Princess that time, but because so many things happened that day, she didn't have the opportunity to do it.”
”County Lord, I beg of you, the princess is so pitiful. I beg of you, please find a way to save her, no one in the palace will help her. If the county Lord doesn't help, the princess will really, really …” As he spoke, he could not help but shed tears at the thought of Princess Eleven's situation.
”Don't worry, I won't leave the Eleventh Princess alone.” Lian Ruyue said.
”But, but Princess Thirteen is your cousin after all, and her mufei is your aunt. You …” The officer replied with a worried expression.
Lian Ruyue's face revealed a faint expression. If Zhili knew that she had already been merciless to her aunt once, he wouldn't have this kind of worry.
”Elder Sister Zhi Li, don't worry. Our young mistress is a person who keeps her word. Since she said that she would help the Eleventh Princess, she will definitely help her to the end.” ”I'm sorry,” she explained, knowing her concern.
”Yes, County Lord. Your servant understands. Your servant will thank you on behalf of Princess Eleven.” The greeting solemnly kowtowed to Lian Xiyue.
After the Concubine left.
Lian Ruyue sat in front of the candle flame. It was already late at night, but she was still awake. Her mind was still recalling the events that happened today.
Both Leng Mei and Qing Dai did not urge her to rest as they both had a very tacit understanding. They just quietly accompanied her in the tent.
After a long time, Lian Meng Yue asked, ”Where is Princess Eleven's prison cart now?”
”Eldest Miss, the Emperor has sent soldiers to guard the stable. No one is allowed to approach.” Leng Mei took a step forward and answered.
”Give me that fox fur cloak. I'll go take a look.” Lian Ru Yue stood up and instructed.
”Yes.”
Lian Ruyue was wearing a cape and walked all the way to the stable, and sure enough, there was a soldier holding hands. On the huge stable, a prison cart was parked there, and Princess Eleven was sitting alone in it. She stared at the starry sky with a pair of lifeless eyes.
She had just approached when Jiang Keji walked over and said,
”County Lord, please wait a moment. The Emperor ordered that no one is to visit.”
Lian Ruyue lifted her eyes and coldly glanced at Jiang Keji. She took off the fox fur cloak on her body and said, ”I know that it's an order from the emperor, so I didn't plan on disobeying it. Now I'm only giving this cloak to the princess to protect her from the cold.
When he was captured by the emperor just now, she wasn't even wearing a robe. She was only wearing a thin layer of inner clothing, as well as a moon-white inner garment. It was already late at night, and the weather was cold.
”…” Jiang Keji did not say anything. He extended his hand to grab the cloak.
”Lord Commander!” The guard at the side hurriedly said. This was against the rules.
”Take the cloak and put it on the princess!” Jiang Keji glanced at the guard and ordered in a cold voice.
The guard paused for a moment. Then, he took the cloak and handed it over to Princess Eleven.
