I was imprisoned by the Empress at the beginning, and I was secretly invincible

The empress in a dragon robe quickly stepped down from the imperial chariot, looking around the sky prison with a little curiosity.

Putting aside her identity as the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, she was also a peerless beauty. Standing in front of the sky prison, she looked like a goddess from heaven descending to the mortal world, which was really out of tune with the environment here.

At this time, without the empress's order, Shangguan Qing took the initiative to step forward, looked down at the prison warden Tao Gongwang, and directly ordered: "Your Majesty is going to the eighteenth floor of the sky prison, you lead the way!"

Although Tao Gongwang, the prison warden, was also a local tyrant, for Shangguan Qing, a confidant of the empress, he was no different from a small official.

Tao Gongwang also had no resistance to her order, but felt extremely honored.

When he heard "the eighteenth floor of the sky prison", he already knew who the empress was going to see.

But it's normal to think about it. Although most of the prisoners in the Heavenly Prison are of high status, except for the Duke of Wei who is imprisoned on the eighteenth floor of the Heavenly Prison, who else is worthy of the empress's condescending visit in person.

Tao Gongwang didn't dare to say a word, and immediately bowed and promised: "Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and led the way in front without saying a word.

As for the other people in the Heavenly Prison, they didn't even have the qualifications to lead the way.

At this moment, the guarding of the Heavenly Prison has been completely taken over by the Imperial Guards, and the three of them walked all the way to the bottom of the Heavenly Prison without any obstacles.

In a blink of an eye, they came to the eighteenth floor of the Heavenly Prison. At this time, the empress Ji Luoyao suddenly stopped.

"How has he been doing in the Heavenly Prison during this period?"

Ji Luoyao looked up at Tao Gongwang and suddenly asked.

Tao Gongwang's expression froze when he heard this, and for a moment he couldn't guess what kind of mentality the empress had when she suddenly asked this.

Is she worried that the Duke of Wei is not doing well?

Or are you worried that the Duke of Weiguo is living too well?

This question seems simple, but if you answer it wrong, it is very likely that his job as the prison warden will be over.

This short moment seemed to last for thousands of years for Tao Gongwang. His mind was turning over and over, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

In the end, he decided to answer honestly, because this matter could not be concealed at all.

"Your Majesty, since the Duke of Weiguo was imprisoned, except for three meals a day, he basically slept all the time..."

"Is it really like this?"

Ji Luoyao was stunned when she heard this. Thinking of the report of Jinyiwei Commander Cao Shaobing before, she couldn't help but wonder: "Can he sleep so much every day?"

"This... I'm not sure." Tao Gongwang smiled awkwardly, "But judging from the mental state of the Duke of Weiguo, it seems that he has been sleeping soundly all the time."

"Sleep soundly?"

Ji Luoyao narrowed her eyes slightly, and couldn't help but think of her current situation. When she compared it with Jiang Hao, her face instantly turned cold.

Although she didn't expect Jiang Hao to cry every day, she didn't want to hear that Jiang Hao was living so comfortably.

Even Ji Luoyao herself couldn't tell what kind of mentality she had.

But at this moment, she was definitely not happy!

"It seems that he is living a comfortable life in the prison!"

Ji Luoyao commented lightly.

No matter how stupid Tao Gongwang was, he could tell that the empress's words were not good.

He shrank his head in fear, and didn't know what he said to make the empress unhappy, so he could only shut up.

Ji Luoyao suddenly felt bored and had no interest in asking again. She stretched out her right hand and said lightly: "Give me the key, and you don't have to go in."

Tao Gongwang naturally didn't dare to disobey, and quickly handed over the key to the eighteenth floor of the prison.

As for Shangguan Qing, she not only knew the strength of the empress, but also the strength of Jiang Hao.

In her mind, Jiang Hao could not pose any threat to the empress, so she naturally had no worries.

"Click, click--"

As the chains were removed, the heavy cell door was quickly pushed open.

Ji Luoyao walked in step by step.

After entering the eighteenth floor of the prison, she subconsciously looked around. The overall environment here was not bad, after all, no one else lived here except Jiang Hao.

But compared with the outside world, it was definitely worse.

Especially for Ji Luoyao, who had lived in the palace with luxury since childhood, she couldn't help but frown.

But soon she didn't have time to care about these, because when she looked up, she happened to meet Jiang Hao's dark eyes.

At this moment, Jiang Hao was sitting on the bed, looking at her calmly.

The two looked at each other, and at this moment, it seemed as if time and space were intertwined, and it seemed as if the picture was frozen, and countless memories came one after another.surged in his heart.

However, unlike the last time when he was full of emotion, this time, Jiang Hao was calm, as if Ji Luoyao's sudden arrival did not stir up any ripples in his heart.

"I wonder why your majesty came here?"

Jiang Hao asked expressionlessly.

It felt like a routine inquiry.

Feeling Jiang Hao's unwelcome attitude, even though Ji Luoyao had been prepared in her heart, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed for a while, and immediately replied in a stiff tone:

"The whole world belongs to the king, can't I come?"

Jiang Hao sneered at the words, then nodded seriously, and said perfunctorily: "Of course, your majesty is the lord of the Great Zhou, there is no place you can't go, but the environment here is simple, please forgive me for not being able to entertain you, your majesty, please do as you please!"

After that, he was too lazy to care about Ji Luoyao anymore.

Although he didn't know what was wrong with Ji Luoyao, why did he have to come to his prison instead of staying in the palace, it didn't mean that he had to welcome her politely.

He had already been thrown into prison, so did he have to kowtow to express his gratitude? He was not a slave of a certain dynasty.

Seeing Jiang Hao's reaction, Ji Luoyao was furious.

Even when she was taught a lesson by the old minister before, she was not so angry.

But thinking of the purpose of her trip, she had to suppress her anger in the end.

She took a deep breath, then looked down at Jiang Hao, raised her chin slightly, showing the majesty of the emperor, and said in an arrogant and indifferent tone: "It seems that the Duke of Weiguo has not realized his mistakes at all these days!"

Hearing this, Jiang Hao's eyes suddenly condensed.

The originally lazy spirit was swept away in an instant.

It was like a sleeping lion suddenly waking up.

Facing the extremely sharp eyes, the empress was only startled, as if she had encountered a great enemy in her life. She felt an unprecedented sense of crisis and subconsciously took several steps back.

However, this feeling came and went quickly. When Ji Luoyao looked again, Jiang Hao returned to his lazy look, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

Ji Luoyao couldn't help but frown slightly. She was born with the body of a human king and her perception was always sharp. It stands to reason that she shouldn't feel wrong.

But Jiang Hao... After so many years of getting along, she really knows Jiang Hao's situation too well.

Maybe Jiang Hao is resourceful and has great talents, but he himself can't pose any threat to her.

"It seems that I'm too tired during this period of time, and I actually have illusions."

Ji Luoyao shook her head secretly and didn't take this matter too seriously.

Looking at Jiang Hao again, she spoke again: "Jiang Hao, let's not talk about other things for now. I just want to ask you one question, do you want to leave here?"

"No!"

Jiang Hao answered very straightforwardly.

Any hesitation would be disrespectful to the system.

What a joke, he is lying here and playing dirty every day, why leave here, go out and continue to work like a cow and a horse?

"..."

Ji Luoyao was stunned.

She obviously didn't expect Jiang Hao to answer like this.

What was even more unexpected was that Jiang Hao didn't even consider it.

She opened her mouth and didn't know what to say for a while.

Standing in place, it was awkward to neither advance nor retreat.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Hao vaguely understood something and suddenly laughed.

"If I'm not mistaken, your majesty came to me this time specifically because of the matter of reducing the vassal state. It seems... the reduction of the vassal state is not going smoothly?"

Although it was a question, Jiang Hao's tone was extremely certain.

Ji Luoyao was startled when she heard this, and then her face turned cold: "You know a lot!"

"Even the jailers are talking about it, you can imagine how big this matter is."

Jiang Hao said lightly.

Ji Luoyao's expression was unchanged, but she was relieved in her heart. In this way, she didn't have to explain it slowly. She immediately said expressionlessly:

"Since you already know about this matter, I think you should have a way to break the situation in your mind. Tell me, I will listen to it!"

Jiang Hao was stunned when he heard this.

Even if he has lived two lives, it is the first time he has seen someone say "ask for advice" so fresh and refined.

How thick-skinned does one have to be to say such a thing?

Jiang Hao couldn't help but look Ji Luoyao up and down for several times. That strange look... It was as if he was looking at a rare animal.

Until Ji Luoyao couldn't stand it, Jiang Hao finally spoke faintly:

"So... Your Majesty is begging me?"
