Chapter 54: The Last Resort

"You're finally willing to say it?" Mo Haoning, who returned to the prefect's yamen, stared murderously at a pair of red eyes, and picked up Wu Minchu, who was thrown in the corner like a broken bag.

"Ahem......" Wu Minchu closed his eyes slightly and coughed twice, "If the prince doesn't let go, he won't have time to know the truth." ”

Mo Haoning was stunned, and threw Wu Minchu back to the corner with a blushing face, and Su Huaizuo on the side moved a chair and put it behind Mo Haoning. When Mo Haoning sat down in his robe and looked at Wu Minchu in the corner again, he found that there were some wounds on Wu Minchu's body that were beginning to fester.

"You found out." Seeing that Mo Haoning had some differences, Wu Minchu reluctantly pulled out a smile, "I can tell you everything I know, but I have one condition." ”

"You ......" Mo Haoning was about to have a seizure, when he suddenly felt that someone was tugging at his sleeve behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Qiao Xiya who came in a hurry.

"I'm going to save my father. I want to know the truth. Please, promise him. Qiao Xiya was wet, and her face couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain, but the choked voice made Mo Haoning's heart like a pinprick.

"Say your terms." Mo Haoning almost gritted his teeth and said these five words.

"My wife and daughter are in Jinancheng. I hope that after I die, Miss Qiao can take them in and take them into Qiao's mansion, even if she is a rough mother-in-law and a rough maid. ”

"Wu Minchu, what kind of heart do you have for this old dog!" As soon as he heard that Wu Minchu wanted Qiao Xiya to take in his wife and daughter, Mo Haoning was angry, isn't this a naked insertion.

"Don't worry, they don't know anything." Wu Minchu seemed to have seen through Mo Haoning's mind and chuckled.

"I promise you." Just when Mo Haoning wanted to continue to scold Wu Minchu and let him dispel this unrealistic idea, Qiao Xiya nodded very calmly.

"What do you want to know, you ask. While I'm still alive. Seeing Qiao Xiya's response, a stone in Wu Min's heart finally fell to the ground, he leaned against the corner of the wall, and looked up at Qiao Xiya weakly.

"Why did you connive at Jinyu's mutilation of so many girls in Huizhou?" I don't know if it's because of anger, or fear, or cold, Qiao Xiya shivered a little uncontrollably.

Wu Minchu smiled bitterly: "My wife and daughter were taken captive to Jin'an City as hostages, I was taken out of my heart and liver, fed meat, and became immortal, but this immortality is only for you." Jinyu holds my heart and liver, and I will die whenever she wants me to die. What else can I do? ”

"Then how dare you say it now?" Qiao Xiya hated the itchy back molars.

"An outcast, what else would you not dare." Wu Minchu said, his indifferent eyes drifted to an ice lump on the ground not far away, "That ice lump is the heart she took from me, the ice melts, and my life is over." ”

"Jinyu has killed so many girls, what is she going to do?"

"Why is she going to tell me?" Wu Minchu coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the lump of ice not far away had melted into only a small half. Wu Minchu gasped, leaned against the wall, and closed his eyes slightly.

"You should know how many she's succeeded, right?" Seeing that Wu Minchu was about to die, Qiao Xiya also began to panic. No matter what, she hopes that Wu Minchu is alive and alive to help her testify and prove her father's innocence.

"Seven. If she caught up with the thunder outside just now, it would be seven. ”

"Who's behind this?" Seeing that Wu Minchu only had air out and no air in, Qiao Xiya was so anxious that tears were about to come out.

"Let's go to Jin'an City and look for it. cough ......" Wu Minchu coughed up a mouthful of blood and glanced at Qiao Xiya, "I have met your father, he is a good official." You can report me to the emperor as the mastermind, if you can use my cheap life to save Master Qiao, I will die without regrets......"

"Hey! Feed! Qiao Xiya stepped forward in two steps and shook Wu Minchu, "Don't die!" ”

But no matter how Qiao Xiya shook, Wu Minchu's eyes never opened again, and the wounds on his body quickly festered, turning into a handful of white bones at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Miss Qiao, Miss Qiao......" Mo Haoning stepped forward and wanted to pull Qiao Xiya up, but saw Qiao Xiya crying so much that she couldn't help herself.

~~

"The girl is awake." Qiao Xiya opened her eyes and just opened the curtain, when Chunling's voice came from her ears.

The bright sun shone into the room, and everywhere she could see was bright, Qiao Xiya felt a trace of warmth in her heart, she took the warm tea handed by Chunling and took a sip, the pores of her body were like a rain in the land of a long drought, and she felt unprecedented comfort and happiness.

"How long did I sleep?"

"It's been two days. His Royal Highness the Seventh didn't let us disturb you, saying that he must let you sleep well and get up again. Chunling said, folded the futon and put it aside, helped Qiao Xiya up, and sat down in the rattan chair under the window.

"Let's eat, girl." Xia He walked in with two plates of snacks and a bowl of gruel.

Chunling hurriedly took the food box and placed the saucer on the table of the Eight Immortals next to the rattan chair. "I can't eat, Chunling, help me go out for a walk." Qiao Xiya's eyes were full of sadness.

"Eat a little bit, I'll have something to discuss with you in a moment." Before Chunling could answer, Mo Haoning's voice came from outside the door.

Qiao Xiya hurriedly helped Chunling to stand up, and was deeply blessed: "The little girl asks Prince Hao for peace, Prince Hao Wan'an."

"Why did you sleep so much more?" Mo Haoning smiled and helped Qiao Xiya up, "Hurry up, these polite gifts will be waived in the future." Saying that, Mo Haoning sat down on the rattan chair on the other side of the Eight Immortals Table, "Don't shout Prince Hao in the future, outside the palace, you just call me my son." ”

"Yes......" Qiao Xiya saw that Mo Haoning really didn't like these red tapes, so she had to agree. Childe just said that he has something to discuss with me, what is the matter? ”

"Eat first." Mo Haoning pushed the dim sum in front of Qiao Xiya, "I'll talk about it when I'm full." Taste it, I specially asked Chu Yun to buy it, which is said to be the best jujube flower cake in Huizhou City. ”

Qiao Xiya picked up a piece and bit it in her mouth, the sweetness of the red dates instantly filled her mouth, and the delicate and sweet taste made people feel even happier.

"Is it delicious?" Mo Haoning looked at Qiao Xiya with a smile.

"Rare."

"I knew you liked it." Mo Haoning looked towards the door proudly, "Chuyun, you lost." Hurry up, get the money! ”

"Master, why are you also a prince, why do you think about me every day...... with melons and dates in my pocket" Chu Yun stood outside the door, chattering and complaining.

"If you want to gamble and lose, take it!" Mo Haoning beckoned to the door again, "Look at your slamming appearance!" I usually don't reward you much? ”

"Alas!" Chu Yun sighed, and reluctantly took out a silver ingot from his arms and put it in front of Mo Haoning, "There is no small reward, the front foot is rewarded, and the back foot has to gamble something to go back." ”

"Okay, good, I'll reward you again this time, if you do a good job, you'll be rewarded when you come back." Mo Haoning didn't put the silver away, but pushed it in front of Chu Yun.

"Master, you just command." Hatsuyun quickly put the silver back into his arms with lightning speed.

"You go and move the master who made this jujube flower cake to Jin'an City with his shop. Be closer to Qiao's house. ”

"Master, you're okay!" Chu Yun looked at Qiao Xiya and responded with a smile.
