Chapter 52: Intercession
In the dark and damp cell, cockroaches and rats crawled all over the ground, and the prisoners locked in the cell had hideous faces one by one, crying and crying out for injustice.
Xiao Feng ignored all this, he tidied up the pole grass under his feet, and found a more comfortable place to sit against the wall, without a trace of turmoil in his heart. He knew clearly in his heart that if he offended the emperor, even if he didn't die, he might not be able to see the light of day again, and he was afraid that he would have to live in this cell for the rest of his life.
"What do you say? Is it true? ”
Ouyang Ye grabbed Zhifan's collar and couldn't control the excitement in his heart.
"Back to the young master! It's true, Xiao Feng would rather die than marry the princess, and the emperor was angry and put Xiao Feng in prison, and he was waiting for the fate at this time. ”
"Great! Here's your chance for revenge! Hahaha~"
Ouyang Ye saw Xiao Feng in distress, and secretly vowed in his heart that he would take this opportunity to kill him.
The fog was deep and heavy, and through the sky that was not yet completely bright, a slender and weak figure knelt at the door of the emperor's dormitory, and it had been a long time.
"Squeak", the door that the woman had been staring at for a long time opened, and the emperor had already sorted out his outfit and walked out.
"Ning'er, what are you doing here?"
The emperor asked when he saw Princess An Ning kneeling on the ground.
"Father, the son begs his father to let Xiao Feng go, the son doesn't want to marry him, ask his father to be gracious."
The pear blossoms that are crying peacefully bring rain, and the delicate makeup is spent.
"Ning'er, what did you say? Don't you like him? Why don't you marry him again? ”
Hearing Princess An Ning say this, the emperor was a little strange.
"Erchen ~ Erchen used to like him, but now he doesn't like him, Erchen doesn't want to marry him anymore, and begs his father to cancel the marriage contract."
An Ning didn't know that her liking would bring death to Xiao Feng, and she regretted it in her heart at the moment.
"Okay, even if you don't like him anymore, I can't let him go, now that the emperor list is known all over the world, if the marriage contract is canceled at this time, I will become the laughing stock of the world, how to promote the monarchy?"
The emperor didn't pay attention to so much, but first considered his own king's face.
"But~ But Erchen really doesn't want to marry him, so I beg my father to be kind and let him go! Please, son! ”
"Xiao Feng has no monarch in his eyes, and he does not obey the order, I must punish him severely."
"Father~"
"Okay, don't say it anymore, I'm going to the court, you can go back to the palace by yourself!"
"Father~Father~"
No matter how Princess An Ning called, the emperor left without looking back.
The sun rose slowly, baking all living things on earth with its scorching light.
Princess Anning's thin body knelt in place, stubbornly fighting against the sun, crumbling.
The emperor who had finished dealing with political affairs walked over from a distance, and saw Princess An Ning who was still kneeling at a glance, he walked over quickly, and at this time Princess An Ning's eyes were blank, her lips were chapped, and she collapsed in the emperor's arms.
"Why is this kid so stubborn. Someone~"
Everyone helped Princess An Ning back to the palace, the emperor personally wiped her face to cool down, Princess An Ning slowly opened her eyes, and said weakly.
"Ask my father to let Xiao Feng go!"
"Silly boy, you're like this, and you're still thinking about that bastard, so I promised you to give him another chance. As long as he is willing to change his words, I will not blame the past. ”
The emperor was very distressed when he saw his daughter's appearance, he knew that An Ning liked Xiao Feng, if he killed him like this, An Ning would definitely be in great pain.
"Open the door!"
The emperor personally came to the heavenly prison and went straight to Xiao Feng's cell.
Xiao Feng still saluted respectfully like an emperor, and didn't say a word other than that.
"Xiao Feng, An Ning knelt outside the hall to intercede for you, it can be seen that she has a deep affection for you, I ask you again, do you marry a princess?"
"Your Majesty, the minister has thanked the princess for her kindness, but the minister has really never liked the princess, let alone married her, which will only harm the princess!"
"You! Are you really not afraid of death? ”
"Your Majesty, forgive Xiao Feng for being really difficult to obey, Xiao Feng only wants to die, and I hope the emperor will fulfill it!"
"You'd rather die than marry my daughter, waste your true love for peace, you want to die, don't you? Well, I will fulfill you. ”
After speaking, the emperor left in a hurry, returned to the palace and then issued a holy decree, he must Xiao Feng pay the price, and the imperial power cannot be challenged.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Xiao Wenzhong's son Xiao Feng did not obey the decree, disregarded the law and discipline of the court, and now gave a death to correct the dynasty. His father, Xiao Wenzhong, and his mother Huali are now in prison because they have no way to raise children, waiting to be released. Chin this~"
"Command!"
Xiao Wenzhong took the holy decree tremblingly, he still came, he knew that sooner or later there would be such a day.
The cell door opened, and Xiao Wenzhong and Hua Li were taken to the cells on either side of Xiao Feng.
"Dad~Mother~ What's going on? Why are you here~"
Xiao Feng grabbed the railing and asked anxiously, but the two did not speak.
"Did the emperor arrest you? I do things alone, why should he arrest you! ”
Xiao Feng was a little angry.
"Feng'er~ Don't you understand? Whether you want it or not. You and the Xiao Mansion are both prosperous and lossy. ”
Hua Hua said earnestly, and sighed softly.
"Someone! I want to see the emperor, I want to see the emperor! I do things by myself, and let my father and mother go! Someone's coming! ”
Xiao Feng shouted hoarsely and slammed the prison door hard.
"Feng'er, stop shouting, it's useless. Since you insist on doing so, your father and mother will accompany you together. ”
Xiao Wenzhong said helplessly.
"Who wants to see the emperor? Is the emperor what you want to see? ”
Xiao Feng fixed his eyes, and Ouyang Ye walked over triumphantly.
"Ouyang Ye, is it your ghost? You're going to let my dad go! Otherwise I'm not kind to you. ”
Xiao Feng said fiercely.
"You're welcome? Now that you're a prisoner, I want to see how you're being rude to me! ”
Ouyang Ye said and ordered the guards to open the cell door and walk in.
"What do you want to do?"
"I don't want to do anything, I'm here today just to get back what you owe me."
Ouyang Ye waved his hand in front of Xiao Feng, this was the hand that Xiao Feng had cut off a finger, and today he was going to cut off Xiao Feng's finger, so that he could get out of this evil breath.
"I think you know exactly what I'm talking about."
Saying that, Ouyang Ye shook the finger with the finger sleeve at Xiao Feng, and pulled out a dagger from his waist.
"You dare!"
Xiao Feng stared at Ouyang Ye viciously.
"Then try!"
Ouyang Ye looked confident, and today he was going to settle on Xiao Feng's finger.
"Don't! Ouyang Gongzi begs you, let Feng'er go, right? ”
Huali pleaded with Ouyang Ye in a low voice on the side, although Xiao Wenzhong did not speak, his heart was also nervous, and he clutched the railing tightly.
