Chapter 694: Prisoner Princess, Jinrou
A few angular leaves floated down and slowly landed on the surface of the lake, waving a slight ripple. The wind also swept over the water, raising a sparkling wave.
Such a beautiful forest lake should have been a very quiet and gentle place, but it was in a closed prison, like the mountain of the prison island, mist, like a fairy, but it was a place of death.
"Why are you here?" Chu Duan stared at the veiled woman and asked in a calm voice.
The Veiled Woman stood there, but without saying a word, she turned slightly sideways and began to walk slowly along the lake.
Chu Duan followed the trend, but she still didn't say a word for the first day.
The lake wave is not big, and it didn't take long for the two to walk around the lake a quarter of the way, and the veiled woman still didn't speak for 1 day.
"From a princess to a transgressor, you have nothing to say? You've been missing for so long and there's nothing to say? Finally, Chu Duan still broke the immersion.
Princess Jinrou stopped, her beautiful eyes were not as clear as before, as if there were countless hardships, helplessness, and melancholy mixed in her eyes, but these eyes were still so firm, although there were many complex emotions, her eyes did not have that kind of down-and-out confusion.
"I've always been a trespasser." Princess Jinrou spoke, her voice was still so tactful, but her tone was a little more indifferent.
Chu Duan didn't understand Princess Jinrou's words at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she understood a little more, and said, "I heard Qianqin say something about you. ”
Princess Jinrou quickly guessed what Qianqin said to Chu Duan, and she stopped talking again and continued to walk forward.
Chu Duan was not good at communicating with him, and he walked slowly with a muffled voice.
"You really don't have anything to say to me?" It was Chu Duan who broke this weird atmosphere.
Although the princess was reduced to a crime, Chu Duan could feel that she still had her own self-esteem and arrogance in her bones, which had nothing to do with whether her identity had changed, this was a temperament that had been cultivated by living in the emperor's house.
On the one hand, Chu Duan doesn't like the feeling of being looked down upon by a high-ranking woman, and on the other hand, the way of communicating with a hypocritical social mask is as uncomfortable as it is for a person who doesn't like to communicate.
However, Chu Duan now knew that Princess Jinrou, who had to behave like this even in prison, was not showing her arrogant identity, but her arrogant self-esteem.
"No, thank you for visiting me." Princess Jinrou shook her head and said something very strange.
"......" Chu Duan didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to speak, "Actually, I didn't know you were here, I always thought you were missing, I was the inspector here, and I came to inquire about Zhang Siyuan's escape from prison." ”
After Chu Duan said this, Princess Jinrou's eyes changed in a flash, but Chu Duan didn't notice it.
"How long have you been imprisoned?" Chu Duan asked.
"Twenty years." Princess Jinrou replied.
Twenty years, for a young woman who has not stepped into the level of the Soul Emperor, she will age after twenty years, especially in this kind of prison that seems to be beautiful but her breath is different from the normal world, it is very likely that after twenty years, Princess Jinrou will become another unbelievable appearance.
To let Chu Duan watch Princess Jinrou imprisoned here for twenty years, Chu Dui felt very uncomfortable, Bi Jing She was also the first woman in Chu Dui's heart...... "Then I'll go first." Chu Duan sensed that Princess Jinrou didn't want to say anything, and it didn't make much sense to stay here, so she could only say.
"Hmm." Princess Jinrou nodded, keeping her face facing the lake.
Chu Duan glanced at Princess Jinrou's shadow a few times, and when she turned to leave, she left a sentence: "If you don't say anything, I can't help you, about Zhang Siyuan...... Be careful yourself. ”
After finishing speaking, Chu Duan's steps did not stop, and he walked straight towards the position where Huang Lianying was waiting.
When Huang Lianying saw Chu Duan coming, she immediately showed a flattering smile and said, "Chu Dajin, do you have any clues?" ”
"She didn't say much, she didn't have any clues." Chu Duan shook his head.
…… At the lakeside, Chu Duan turned away and said that Princess Jinrou's eyes were like ripples on the water, and she had the idea of turning around to stop Chu Duan, but she stopped again.
"You won't help me, you can't help me, just help me keep the secret." Princess Jinrou muttered to herself.
Princess Jinrou slowly took off her veil, half sat on the edge of the lake, hung down her dull hair, and looked at herself from the surface of the water that was always rippling.
This princess is indeed very beautiful, and after taking off the veil, that kind of delicate beauty can make Jin suffocate herself, but now, only she is admiring herself, admiring her reckless self.
In fact, Princess Jinrou was indeed a little surprised to see Chu Duan's arrival, Bi Jing had been in this prison for almost a year, and she was lonely this year, so lonely that she could only stand by the lake and be accompanied by her shadow every time she died.
Chu Dui's arrival made her very surprised and delighted, she was reluctant to tell Chu Dui her secret, because she knew that it would be useless to talk to Chu Dui, but she still hoped that Chu Duan could stay here for a while, Bi Jing's closed loneliness was a painful torment for a woman.
Princess Jinrou just wanted to chat with Chu Duan casually, but Chu Dui didn't leave the "business" in three sentences, and when it came to the "business", Princess Jinrou didn't want to talk.
Princess Jinrou could also see that Chu Duan felt that she was bored with herself, and she also wanted to explain, but if she thought about it carefully, there was no need, he was not even a friend to himself, and he also did not regard himself as a friend, as a woman, she really couldn't ask a man who was not even a friend to stay here, even if she took the initiative, it was just to alleviate her loneliness and loneliness.
…… After Chu Duan left the Lost Prison Prison, he found the warden of the prison and wanted to know the reason why Princess Jinrou was imprisoned from the records in their hands.
It's a pity that in the records of the Lost Prison, even the name of Princess Jinrou is not mentioned, and the reason is that the permission to understand is restricted.
This permission is not because the princess has committed irreparable crimes, but because it is to protect the reputation of the Demon Palace and the reputation of Princess Jinrou herself.
Obviously, Princess Jinrou's disappearance is just publicity to the outside world, and Youjin doesn't want Shijin to know that Princess Jinrou, who has all kinds of good names, has now become a prisoner.
Chu Duan couldn't find the answer, and after returning to the Soul Palace, he could only ask Pavilion Elders, Zhuo Nong, and Yu Hall Masters to enter. However, they don't seem to know what happened.
So, Chu Duan went to Liu Binglan again, wanting to use her identity to gain the right to read Princess Jinrou's crimes.
"I'm afraid I don't have privileges in this regard, the Lost Trace Prison is controlled by the Soul Pet Palace, and it is guarded by all major forces, and anyone who enters has no privileges, unless they can give a reasonable reason to inspect." Liu Binglan said.
“…… Is it possible to release the incarceration? Chu Duan asked. Chu Duan really didn't want Princess Jinrou to be trapped in the Lost Trace Prison for twenty years.
"There are many ways to reduce the sentence, and it generally depends on what the crime is. What's wrong, why do you suddenly care so much about an ingress? Liu Binglan asked.
Chu Duan told Liu Binglan about Princess Jinrou's imprisonment in the Lost Trace Prison.
"Princess Jinrou? Is that the little princess of the Demon Palace who knows one of your secrets? Liu Binglan asked.
"Yes, it's her." Chu Duan nodded.
"I've seen her a few times before, all veiled, but I can see that she is very beautiful and has a good temperament. Such a girl is locked up in prison......" As Liu Binglan spoke, her eyes were also paying attention to the expression on Chu Duan's face, as if she wanted to see something from Chu Duan's expression.
"Tell mom about your conversation with her." Liu Binglan continued to ask.
Chu Duan also described it roughly, in fact, there was nothing to talk about, and it was very simple to narrate.
"She always wouldn't speak, so I had to leave." Chu Duan made a final summary.
"Fool, it would be nice if you told her something else, what girl likes to talk about her dishonorable things. Since you yourself said that she has a secret, how can she tell you the secret so easily. Liu Binglan said with a smile, invisibly revealing a little love for Chu Duan, who didn't know the girl's thoughts, "Moreover, she has been imprisoned for a year, and with her temperament, she will definitely not come into contact with other prisoners, and she is very lonely there, so why don't you accompany her into the house." ”
"......" Chu Duan scratched his head in embarrassment, he really didn't think of this aspect, it seems that he is too real.
"If you really care about her, go to her more often, maybe she will trust you on duty, and she will naturally tell you." As a mother, Liu Binglan has the obligation to teach Chu Duan how to understand a girl's mind.
"Well, it's just like this time is adjusting, and there's plenty of time." Chu Duan said.
"......" Liu Binglan was a little speechless, rolled her eyes at Chu Duan, and said, "So, if you're busy cultivating, you won't care about her?" ”
"This ......" Chu Duan didn't know how to answer for a while, and hesitated for a long time before speaking, "I don't know either, I hope she can be free, but she has been imprisoned for twenty years, and I can't stay here all the time, and I have my own things to do." ”
"In other words, Ye Tianzi was imprisoned?" Liu Binglan seems to like to talk to Chu Duan about girls, and instead of her usual cold and silent words, she has a lot of problems.
"I'm going to do something to get her out." Chu Duan said.
Hearing this, Liu Binglan smiled with relief and said, "The matter of the princess, in fact, the elders of the Soul Pet Palace have mentioned it to me, because the matter has been contained, so I didn't pay much attention to it at that time......
"However, since the elders of the Soul Pet Palace will report the matter to me, it means that the princess's affairs have a serious impact, and it may be a threat to the Soul Alliance's 'Star Peerless', and my position in the Soul Alliance's 'Star Peerless' will only take action if there is any turmoil in the Realm City."
