Xuan Ningyi allowed the guards to escort him and walked slowly into the prison. The prison was a place where felons were imprisoned. Those who entered the prison would hardly have the chance to get out again.
As a prince, Xuan Ningyi had long understood this truth, but he still walked in without hesitation.
"Fourth Prince, please come in." The guard opened the cell door and said coldly.
Xuan Ningyi walked into the sky prison slowly, and the cell door was closed instantly. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Xuan Ningyi's mouth. As a prince, he was reduced to a prisoner.
Xuan Ningyi walked slowly to the corner, sat down, and stared blankly into the distance.
How will Xuan Ningxuan deal with him? Will he torture him severely?
Xuan Ningyi breathed a sigh of relief slowly, and settled down as soon as it happened.
Xuan Ningyi closed his eyes and fell asleep unconsciously.
Xuan Ningyi was awakened by the sound of unlocking the door. When he opened his eyes, the cell door had been opened. Xuan Ningyi didn't know how long he had slept. There were no windows in the sky prison, so he could not feel the passage of time.
Xuan Ningyi couldn't help but smile, and Xuan Ningxuan was planning to torture him.
"Your Majesty, please." The guard said coldly, with contempt in his eyes. The word "Your Majesty" was originally an insult to Xuan Ningyi.
The smile on his lips gradually faded, and Xuan Ningyi walked slowly towards the execution room. Although he walked very slowly, the guards behind him did not rush him, but just followed Xuan Ningyi closely.
Are you afraid that he will run away? Xuan Ningyi thought secretly in his heart, and couldn't help but feel that Xuan Ningxuan was too careful with him. Since he was caught without mercy, he had no intention of escaping.
Xuan Ningyi allowed the guards to tie his limbs to the torture rack. The guards tied him very tightly, and a tearing pain came from his arms.
A guard clamped Xuan Ningyi's chin and stuffed a black pill into Xuan Ningyi's mouth.
Seemingly sensing Xuan Ningyi's confusion, the guard explained calmly: "Your Majesty, this is a pill to prevent you from fainting due to the pain."
Xuan Ningyi didn't reply, but closed his eyes, waiting for the pain to come.
The air was filled with the whistling sound of a whip, followed by the sound of the whip touching skin.
Xuan Ningyi clenched his fists tightly to prevent himself from making any sound.
The whip did not stop and swung at Xuan Ningyi's body. Cold sweat continued to fall from his forehead, and the air was filled with the strong smell of blood.
I don’t know how many times I was whipped, and my body was in great pain. Because of the black pill, even fainting became a luxury.
The guard who kept waving the whip became increasingly confused, and the hand waving the whip gradually lost strength.
The guard stopped and looked at the other guard, and whispered: "You won't be beaten to death by me, why don't you make any sound? If I had known this, I wouldn't have accepted the money. After all, he is the emperor's brother,
If the emperor finds out that we are doing this to him secretly, will Long Yan be furious and chop off our heads?"
Another guard glanced fearfully at Xuan Ningyi, who was tied to the torture frame and covered in blood. Cold sweat continued to roll down his forehead, and he said in a low voice: "No way, it's not that easy to die. Besides, you're in the sky prison."
No one got out alive."
The whip-swinging guard glanced at the silent Xuan Ningyi in fear, then cautiously walked up to Xuan Ningyi and felt his breath.
"Is he really dead?" Another guard asked fearfully.
The whip-wielding guard shook his head and said: "There is still breath, but the breath is very weak. We will be here tonight. We will send him back. If someone is really killed, our heads are really not safe. For those ten thousand
It’s not worth two cents of silver.”
The other guard nodded and helped to untie Xuan Ningyi.
Although the black pills had the special effect of preventing people from fainting, Xuan Ningyi still lost consciousness. When he regained consciousness, he had been thrown back to the cell.
Xuan Ningyi moved his body slightly, and the tearing pain immediately swallowed up all his thoughts.
Xuan Ningyi gave up and lay stiffly on the ground motionless.

Queen's bedroom
"Empress, what are you thinking about? Why don't you respond when Caiyun calls you?" Caiyun looked at Murong Jingwan worriedly.
The hand holding the baby trembled suddenly. Murong Jingwan raised her head and looked at Caiyun, her eyes blank. She didn't hear what Caiyun asked her.
"Empress, why are you so lost in thought that you didn't even hear Caiyun's words?" Caiyun repeated helplessly, hoping that Murong Jingwan heard it this time.
"I didn't think about anything, I was just distracted." Murong Jingwan said lightly. She was always in a restless mood today. Xuan Ningyi was thrown into the sky prison. I wonder if Xuan Ningxuan made things difficult for him.
"Empress, please stop comforting us. Your worries are written all over your face." Caixia walked in slowly, with a trace of displeasure on her face.
"I'm worried about Yi's safety." Murong Jingwan said truthfully.
Caixia glared at Murong Jingwan hatefully and said angrily: "My Lady, your relationship with the Emperor has become worse because of the Fourth Prince. Why are you still thinking about him?"
"Caixia." Murong Jingwan's voice was filled with anger.
"Mother, I'm sorry. Caixia just doesn't want to see you looking sad." Caixia said apologetically. She didn't mean to make Murong Jingwan angry.
"Caixia, if you really want me to be happy, can you help me go to Tianlao to find out about Yi's situation?" Murong Jingwan looked at Caixia worriedly, knowing in her heart that Caixia could not find out about Xuan Ningyi's situation, but she still hugged her
With a glimmer of hope.
Caixia had a flash of embarrassment, she was just a little palace maid, how could she find out about Xuan Ningyi's condition in Tianlao.
"My Lady, maybe Caiyun can find out about the situation of the Fourth Prince in the Heavenly Prison." Caiyun said word by word. Although that man had set up Murong Jingwan, perhaps only he could find out about the situation in the Heavenly Prison.
"Caiyun, is it true?" Murong Jingwan looked at Caiyun in surprise.
Caiyun nodded seriously, "Queen, Caiyun can't guarantee it, but Caiyun will definitely try her best."
"Caiyun, thank you." Murong Jingwan said sincerely. She could not walk out of the palace, so she could only let Caiyun and Caixia take risks. Even though she knew she was selfish, Murong Jingwan had no other choice.
"Your Majesty, Caiyun once betrayed your Majesty, yet your Majesty still trusts Caiyun so much. The person who should say thank you is Caiyun." Caiyun said with tears.
Murong Jingwan shook her head, why should she be grateful? Doesn't she know that her family was coerced because of her?
"Caiyun, don't put yourself in danger, you know?" Murong Jingwan warned carefully, she didn't want to see anyone get hurt because of her.
"Please rest assured, Madam, Caiyun will definitely complete the mission." After Caiyun said that, he walked out quickly, but he was worried in his heart, not knowing whether the man would appear where they met.
