Zongren Mansion Dungeon.

Mu Xue was locked in one of the separate cells.

As a princess of the current dynasty, she has a distinguished status, so after being imprisoned here, she has not suffered any major torture for the time being.

But although the physical torment was gone, the psychological torment had reached an unbearable level.

The first is naturally the huge psychological gap brought about by the change of identity.

Being imprisoned by the Zongren Mansion means that her status in the palace is not as good as before. Even if she has the opportunity to go out, she will be inferior to many princes and grandsons.

The second is self-blame from the bottom of my heart.

She didn't expect that after breaking the precepts set by the Zongren Mansion, she not only put herself in an embarrassing situation, but also brought death to Lin Yu.

First, the Zongren Mansion dispatched various killers to assassinate Lin Yu. Later, when the royal father found out about the incident, he ordered her to bring Lin Yu over and prepare to catch the turtle in the urn.

"Brother Lin, you must not come, you are definitely not my father's opponent... Do not come!"

Just now, the emperor possessed by Lingwu God had ordered her to ask Lin Yu for help. She couldn't resist this request, so she could only pray in her heart that Lin Yu would not come to die.

After all, other than that, she really didn't know what else she could do.

blah blah blah!

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the cell.

The footsteps came from far to near, obviously coming straight to the cell where she was.

Mu Xue hurriedly wiped away her tears and tried her best to pretend that nothing happened, because she was very familiar with these footsteps, and it must be her biological mother Liu Guifei.

Soon, the visitor came to the cell where Mu Xue was.

"Xue'er, are you okay? Did they torture you?"

As soon as Concubine Liu came to the door of Mu Xue's cell, she asked worriedly.

"No."

Mu Xue suppressed the tears in her eyes and shook her head gently.

She is still young, and she is used to being pampered. This is the first time she has fallen into such a situation. Therefore, after seeing her biological mother, her mentality instantly lost control.

When Liu Guifei heard Mu Xue's answer, she felt a little relieved.

Immediately afterwards, she scolded her angrily: "Xue'er, you stupid child, how could you be so stupid, to be fascinated by the mere masculine."

Concubine Liu Gui shook her head as she spoke, her face full of sorrow.

Seeing her say this, Mu Xue suddenly became rebellious and defended: "Mother, I saw him passed out in the wilderness, afraid of something happening to him, so I just sent him to the medical center, and did nothing else. , is this also wrong?"

"Xue'er, don't deceive yourself there!"

Concubine Liu Gui reprimanded softly: "What you are thinking, I will only know better than you. Besides, the Zongren Mansion has always been impartial and selfless. They must have found out that you are in love, so they will do that. You don't have to argue."

Seeing that Concubine Liu Gui was angry, Mu Xue hurriedly stopped and did not continue to speak.

Of course, another reason why she chose not to continue defending is because what Concubine Liu Gui said was right, even if she forcibly defended her, it would be ineffective.

"Hey--"

Concubine Liu Gui sighed deeply.

"Xue'er, listen to your mother's advice, don't worry about that bitch man anymore. What you have to do now is to honestly listen to the sect's mansion and the emperor's words. Whatever they ask you to do, you will cooperate fully. Try to make up for it.”

Hearing this, Mu Xue hurriedly defended Lin Yu: "Mother, don't say that to Brother Lin, he's not a bad person, it's Xue'er's fault that things turn out like this."

"Xue'er, are you still speaking for him at this time?"

Concubine Liu Gui was angry again and rebuked: "The heart is separated from the belly, how do you know that he is not a bad person?"

"No, no, I won't read it wrong!" Mu Xue said stubbornly.

"you!"

Liu Guifei tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and said patiently: "That man just has a good-looking skin, but no matter how good-looking the skin is, he is just a grass-roots citizen."

"You said he passed out in the wilderness, and you took pity on him before sending him to the hospital.

But have you ever thought that maybe he passed out there on purpose, just waiting for you to rescue him? "

"Think about it, you are precious as a princess, and he is a grasshopper, will he have a coveted heart for you and try to climb the dragon and the phoenix?"

Speaking of this, Concubine Liu stopped.

She felt that her daughter was too naive and simple, and she didn't know if she could wake her up by saying this.

"Mother, Brother Lin is not what you think!"

As soon as Concubine Liu Gui stopped, Mu Xue hurriedly defended Lin Yu: "Brother Lin is really injured, if you don't believe me, you can send someone to ask the doctor at Renji Medical Center in Jinhe City, Haihe Prefecture. Was he seriously injured at the time?"

"Also, after Brother Lin recovered from his injury, the first thing he thought about was going to the academy to practice martial arts, because he injured his head and forgot a lot of things. He wanted to see if he could retrieve his memory through martial arts training."

"Mother, you should know very well that practicing martial arts will hurt your body and shorten your life. If Brother Lin is really approaching me on purpose as you said, and wants to cling to me, why would he do such a stupid thing?"

After Mu Xue finished explaining, Concubine Liu Gui shook her head helplessly and said solemnly, "Xue'er, you underestimated the sinister nature of the human heart."

"I'll say it again, you're a princess, he's just a peasant, you're used to being pampered, and you want everything to be good, but he's not like that."

"He must be very clear in his heart that it is not easy to get close to you and gain your trust, so in order to achieve this goal, he is willing to pay a lot of prices you can't imagine."

"You said that he was seriously injured, and it may be that he intentionally injured himself. You said that he wanted to go to the academy to practice martial arts after his injury. It is also possible that he deliberately pretended to be pitiful to win your sympathy."

"In short, it's all his conspiracy. You are the only one left in the dark, and we can all see it clearly."

When Mu Xue heard what Liu Guifei said, she became anxious and said, "Mother, no, really not..."

"shut up!"

Concubine Liu Gui snarled: "Xue'er, don't be obsessed, or no one can save you!"

This angry rebuke immediately made Mu Xue swallow the words in her mouth, and looked at Concubine Liu Gui in a stunned manner.

It was the first time she had seen her own mother so angry, and she was a little frightened.

"Xue'er, it's useless to say anything now. There are only two choices in front of you. Either die with that scumbag, or just be obedient and ask the emperor's forgiveness."

Concubine Liu Gui gave Mu Xue an ultimatum, and made it clear that she did not want to have a meaningless verbal dispute with her.

Mu Xue was silent, holding back her tears.

She has infinite grievances in her heart, but now even her biological mother doesn't want to believe her, so she doesn't know who to tell her grievances.

But at this moment, a breeze suddenly blew outside the cell.

The prison cell of the Zongren Mansion is impregnable, how could there be wind blowing in?

Both Liu Guifei and Mu Xue looked in the direction the wind was blowing in surprise.
