Looking at Hong Zhou's figure walking further and further away, Qi Kuan whispered: "Master, do you want me to ask Prince He again?"
Xianyue withdrew her gaze, shook her head and said: "It's useless. I won't tell you even if I ask him, so how can I tell you." After a pause, she said doubtfully: "The emperor asked me to believe him, and the prince."
He also said that the emperor is doing this for my own good, what on earth is going on..."
"Since both the Emperor and Prince He are unwilling to say anything, then only the Fifth Manager is left." Before Jin Ping finished speaking, Qi Kuan shook his head and said: "The Fifth Manager is most loyal to the Emperor, and looking at the situation now,
The emperor must have ordered him not to reveal anything, so why would he be willing to tell us?"
Jin Ping smiled slightly and said: "The fifth general manager is certainly extremely loyal to the emperor, but what about his disciples? Are they equally loyal?"
Qi Kuan's eyes flashed and he said, "You mean Huang Ying?"
"That's right." Jin Ping said to Xianyue, "I heard that Huang Ying is greedy for money. As long as I give him enough benefits, I can ask him anything. I thought it would be better to start with him. He follows Wu all day long.
Even if you don't know everything about the general manager, you should know something about it."
Xianyue thought about it and said: "There is no other way now, just give it a try. I will leave this matter to you. You can use the treasures in the warehouse as you see fit."
"Master, don't worry. I will definitely ask you about Wei Xiuyan for my master." With Jinping's agreement, Kunning Palace fell into a long silence...
In winter, the sky always gets dark very early, and it is already pitch black at midnight. As soon as it gets dark, the temperature drops sharply. People who are cold are shivering all over, and no matter how thick the cotton clothes are, they can't block the bone-chilling chill.
Father Wei and others have been kneeling for several hours. They are cold and hungry, and their legs are numb and have no feeling. However, Wei Xiuyan still refuses to open the door. Wei De couldn't help but said: "Father, how much longer should we kneel?"
Father Wei said coldly: "Kneel down until Xiuyan agrees!"
Wei De wrapped his cotton clothes tightly and said with a grimace, "Then if Xiuyan doesn't agree, will we really kneel until dawn?"
Wei Xing knelt down with anger and couldn't help but said: "Except for a few children, none of us are older than Wei Xiuyan. Her father and mother have given birth to her and raised her for nearly thirty years, but she allows us to do this."
Kneeling down and not even looking at me is too much!"
Father Wei glared at him fiercely and said, "If you don't hate Xiuyan enough, you might as well speak louder."
"Father!" Wei Xing said unwillingly: "Kneel down like this, even if the emperor doesn't kill us, we will freeze to death. Look at Ali and the others, their lips are all blue from the cold." Ali in his mouth
Others, including his and Wei De's children, also knelt down to beg Wei Xiuyan.
When Father Wei heard this, he sighed, "I know it's hard for you, but other than that, there is no other way."
A trace of anger flashed across Wei De's eyes, and he lowered his voice and said: "Father, why don't you let me go in and force her to do it? I don't believe that she is really not even afraid of death!"
"No!" Wei's father said immediately: "I know Xiuyan's temperament very well. She is willing to accept the soft rather than the tough. If you do this, it will only be counterproductive."
Wei De was scolded by him and said unwillingly: "But we have been kneeling for so long and she didn't respond. What if she still looks like this tomorrow?"
Father Wei was speechless by his questions. Indeed, even he was not sure about this matter, and the time left for them was getting less and less. His daughter... was really so cruel.
? No, he doesn’t believe it!
Before Wei De could say anything else, Wei's father suddenly succumbed and fell to the ground. Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked and rushed to help him, pinching him and using other methods, but Wei's father was still nowhere to be seen.
When he woke up, everyone was panicking.
Wei's mother, who was already suffering from hunger and cold, fainted when she was stimulated by this again. But she was cured this time. She fainted two people at once, making Wei De and others even more confused. When several young children saw this scene, they
I was so frightened that I started crying, and for a moment, I was in a mess.
"Second brother, go and fetch the doctor!" After calling Wei Xing to leave, Wei De looked up and saw Wei Xiuyan standing there with the door opened at some point. He suddenly lost his temper and rushed over and said sternly: "
Okay, are you happy now?"
Wei Xiuyan bit her lip and said softly: "How are they...?"
"You don't have to cry and show mercy here. Aren't you just hoping that we will die?!" After a pause, he added: "No matter what faults your father and mother have, they are still your parents. If not
They, you are already dead, how can you still stand here and have a private life-long relationship with your sixth brother? But you are so cruel, letting them kneel outside in the winter and ignore you.
Don’t ask.”
Wei Xiuyan looked complicated and said: "I said, I don't want to serve the emperor, why do you have to force me!"
"You only think about yourself. Have you ever considered us, your parents? They are so old, can't you let them live a peaceful life for a few days?" After saying that, Wei De said coldly: "
I know you hate us in your heart, but you
Think about it, we were suddenly imprisoned and beheaded by you, how could we not feel resentful? In the end, you made a few complaints and harsh words, but you took them to heart and insisted on harming us all.
I am only happy when I am dead, Wei Xiuyan, why are you so cruel!"
Wei Xiuyan bit her lip and said nothing. When they were kneeling outside, she felt uncomfortable. She tried to open the door several times, but she reluctantly held back and served Hongli... She really couldn't do it, but... watching
How could she do it if all her close relatives died? As Weide said, even if there are countless mistakes, they are still her family!
During the stalemate, a weak voice came, "Ad, you... don't blame Xiuyan!"
Hearing this voice, Wei De quickly ran over, supported Wei's father who opened his eyes slightly, and said: "Father, it's this time, why are you still protecting her? She has been looking forward to our death."
Father Wei ignored him and just stretched out his hand tremblingly towards Wei Xiuyan. The latter stared at him with a complicated expression and had not walked over for a long time. Seeing her like this, Father Wei took back his hand in disappointment and sighed: "
This time, it is indeed my father who is sorry for you first. No wonder you hate me so much.
." After saying this, he shook his head and said: "That's all, you don't want to serve the emperor, and your father won't force you anymore. Maybe this is really the fate of the Wei family, and there is no way to escape it. I just hope that the emperor can see how many people are here.
For the sake of the princess, please show some mercy to your sister and don't kill them all."
