Chapter 291: Coercion and Temptation
Be. The guard saluted respectfully.
After the prince and the others left, Ji Wan sat on the edge of the pool and pretended to think about the prince's request, but in fact she was thinking about how to escape. The terrain here is empty, there are high walls on all sides, and if she makes any small movements, these two guards can see it clearly, and if they want to escape under their noses, they are afraid that it will be difficult to reach the sky.
Chi Wan couldn't think of any good ideas, the dazzling sunlight made her feel a little anxious, half an hour would soon pass, did she have to sit here and wait?
Her gaze subconsciously glanced around, trying to find a breakthrough. A few white lotuses floating in the sparkling pool, wait, pool?
Ji Wan stood up excitedly. Her movements immediately attracted the attention of the two guards next to her, who stared at her nervously.
"Don't be nervous, two big brothers, I just sat for a long time, my legs are a little numb, and I want to move." Chi Wan explained with a smile, and as she spoke, she also rubbed her legs, but her steps moved imperceptibly to the edge of the pool.
The two guards glanced at each other thoughtfully, and did not respond to Chi Wan's words, the smile on Chi Wan's face couldn't help but stiffen a little, with these two people here, it was too difficult for her to escape.
"Trouble the two eldest brothers to go out and tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that I have thought it through and am willing to agree to his request."
When the two heard that she was willing to agree to the prince's request, their faces immediately became happy.
"It's good for the girl to think clearly." To be honest, the two of them felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's request did not need to be considered at all, and it was good to agree directly.
What woman doesn't want to sit in the position of the master of the harem? They have all heard that many ministers are already cultivating the show girls in their families in private, so they expect to be favored by the prince and take the family to soar. One of them ran out to inform the prince, leaving only one person to watch Chi Wan in place, and also relaxed his vigilance because of Chi Wan's words just now.
"Big brother, look, what's over there?" While the guards were still thinking nonsense, Chi Wan suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
The man looked in the direction that Chi Wan pointed, but he didn't see anything, and suddenly he only felt a sharp pain in his back, and he fell to the ground as soon as it was dark.
Ji Wan threw away the stone in her hand and cautiously squatted down to check his breath.
"It's good that the person didn't die." The warm breath at her fingertips made Ji Wan breathe a sigh of relief, although she wanted to run for her life, she didn't want to kill. Fortunately, she also knew the severity of her attack, and the other party was just stunned by her, and it would not hurt her life.
"Chi Wan, you can be regarded as a ...... What about people? When the prince heard the report from his subordinates, he rushed in, but he did not want the garden to be empty, only a guard lying on the ground.
"What do you guys think? I can't even look at a weak woman, how did I raise a bunch of you such a waste. The prince kicked the guard on the ground hard.
"Your Highness, I think Chi Wan must have escaped over the wall, let's quickly send someone to chase after us."
"Hurry up and chase it!" The prince had just given an order, and the guards on the side reminded, "Chi Wan is just a weak woman who is powerless, such a high wall can't climb out on her own, and her subordinates think that she must be hiding in a corner of this garden now." ”
The prince thought for a while and felt that his words were very reasonable, "That's right, immediately search this garden for me inside and out, and I will find her if I dig three feet into the ground." ”
But no matter how much the prince's people searched, they couldn't find Chi Wan.
"Your Highness, we have searched inside and outside several times, but we still haven't seen anyone, I think she just climbed out of this high wall." The guards came to report back.
The prince was extremely angry that he couldn't find anyone, and scolded a lot and was about to take people away, but he was stopped by the subordinates who had just persuaded him to search the Houfu.
"Your Highness, please believe that your subordinate Chi Wan must still be here."
"You said she was here, but we searched for her several times, but we couldn't find anyone at all, I think you're obviously delaying time." A subordinate disdainful sarcasm.
"I ...... By the way, we haven't searched this pool yet. As soon as he finished speaking, a wet head poked out of the pool.
"I can't stand it anymore, why are you so inked?" Ji Wan gasped and complained.
She had indeed been hiding in this pool just now, and she wanted to rely on her good water quality and come out when they left, but she really didn't expect them to talk for so long, she couldn't hold it back, and they were about to search this pool, so they would come out first.
The prince was first startled by the sudden appearance of Chi Wan, and then laughed angrily.
"Chi Wan, Chi Wan, you are so smart that you almost deceived you." The prince almost said it through gritted teeth.
Chi Wan was also very distressed in her heart, she was almost able to escape, and she blamed that bastard, thinking that she glared fiercely at the person next to the prince who ordered the search.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to have everything back to square one, if you get any closer, I'll throw this thing away." Chi Wan waved the tiger talisman that had been being held tightly, and smiled scoundrelly.
At first, she thought that the ancients were too rigid, and the tiger talisman was just a gold nugget with a unique shape, but now she was very glad that she had a secret talisman in her hand.
The prince was so angry with her rogue strength that he was helpless, this Chi Wan was too cunning.
When Chi Wan was proud, he saw that the attendant who had given the prince the idea before muttered a few words in his ear. Secretly screaming in his heart is not good, this person is a little clever at first glance, I don't know what bad idea to give the prince?
Sure enough, the prince smiled smugly when he heard his words, and glanced at Chi Wan, as if he had already figured out how to take the tiger talisman from her.
Chi Wan subconsciously tightened the tiger talisman in her hand, thinking about what bad idea the prince had, and about a quarter of an hour later, she saw several guards escorting a middle-aged man in.
When she saw the man's appearance, Chi Wan was shocked, Chi Fangrui, isn't this the father of the original owner?
"Chi Wan, if you don't hand over the tiger talisman in your hand again, I will kill your father." The prince winked at his subordinates.
The next moment, Chi Fangrui was pushed to the edge of the pool, with horror on his face, as if he hadn't understood what was going on.
"Kill if you want." Ji Wan was telling the truth. Chi Fangrui is not her real father, and he is not good to her, so she will not care about his life or death.
But as soon as she finished saying this, her heart ached, and then her head began to hurt.
What the hell is going on? Why does the good end hurt heartache.
Ji Wan bit the tip of her tongue and tried to stay calm and not let the prince and the others discover her abnormality.
"Chi Wan, how can you, an unfilial daughter, say such a rebellious thing." As soon as Chi Fangrui heard what Chi Wan said, he began to scold, and looked at the prince pleadingly, "Your Highness, you must not kill me, you can do whatever you ask me to do." ”
The prince didn't believe that Ji Wan would really care about his father's life or death, "Don't hold on, or ......"
As soon as the knife on Chi Fangrui's neck was forced, a blood mark was immediately cut on his neck, and blood poured out instantly. Chi Fangrui was so frightened that his legs were weak and he almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, the guards behind him grabbed him.
It seems that the prince has lost patience with himself, and Chi Wan knows that he is not in a hurry to take the tiger talisman in his hand.
"I ...... I really don't care...... Whether he lives or dies, you can kill him if you want to. Ji Wan felt that after saying this, her whole body began to hurt. This pain came from the depths of her soul, and Ji Wan sensed that it should be the soul of the original owner protesting against her not saving her father.
Chi Wan was very angry at this uncontrollable feeling, since her body was already her own, why did she come out to protest?
The painful rope on her face was seen by the prince and misunderstood, "Chi Wan, although you say that you don't care, your heart is actually very painful." ”
"No, it won't." Chi Wan snorted coldly, "Don't think I don't know, you are actually a raccoon dog, he has helped you do so many things, are you really willing to kill him?" ”
"Don't talk about your father compared to the Tiger Fu, it's worth killing more people." There was fanaticism in the prince's eyes, and there was a faint hint of madness.
I have long known that the prince cares about power very much, but I didn't expect it to be crazy to this point.
"If you kill him, aren't you worried about the chills of the other people who follow you?"
The prince walked up to Chi Fangrui and patted his face gently, "Chi Fangrui, I remember that you said that you went up the sword mountain and the sea of fire for me, and now you should be willing to die for me." ”
Hearing this, Chi Fangrui's strands kept trembling, and he swallowed his saliva nervously, "Your Highness, I'm ...... Just spare me. ”
"You useless thing!" The prince's face changed, and he spat Chi Fangrui's face, with a look of disdain, "A big man's bones are so soft, even your daughter can't compare!" ”
Chi Fangrui, he doesn't care about the prince's sarcasm, as long as he can live, even if he kneels down and begs for mercy.
"It's useless for you to beg me, go and beg your daughter." The prince winked at him.
Chi Fangrui instantly understood, and cried and begged at Chi Wan.
"Wan'er, my father knows that he owes you a lot, but after all, we are family, and blood is thicker than water, so you can't bear to see me killed." Chi Fangrui tried to persuade Chi Wan with family affection, but Chi Wan still looked unmoved.
"Your Highness, look at ......" Chi Fangrui looked at the prince for help, as if to say that he had no choice.
In fact, Ji Wan was not as calm and indifferent as she appeared, she was now in extreme pain all over her body, even the cracks of her bones were painful, but she was always dying.
The prince's expression was already extremely impatient, "I don't have the leisure to grind with you here." ”
