It was getting dark, and Chu Mengni felt even more anxious. She hugged Ouyang Shaogong tightly and cried softly in the silent night.
She had never been so scared or hesitant in her life.
In the middle of the night, she felt the person in her arms move. She was surprised and happy: "Shao Gong, are you awake?"
Ouyang Shaogong pushed her away with all his strength, but unfortunately his body was so weak that he couldn't exert any strength at all.
He roared with all his strength: "Stay away from me." But it was undeniable that he felt very comfortable in her arms just now, so comfortable that he didn't want to leave.
"Shao Gong, listen to me."
"If you are persuading me to hand over the throne to save my life, please save your energy." His voice was much lower. He was seriously undernourished, and he was the one who should save his energy the most.
"Shao Gong, that's not what I meant. From the beginning to the end, you and I have the same mind. What I did today was just to delay time so that someone could save us."
"Really?" He was dubious.
"Of course it's true. The words I said were all for Prince Han to hear."
He struggled to crawl over and hug her, and said hoarsely: "I'm sorry, Mengni, I misunderstood you. It's all my fault."
Chu Mengni grabbed his hand, put something into his hand, and said: "I keep this chicken leg, please be a little aggrieved. Only after eating something can we have the strength to fight with Prince Han."
"I listen to you." He took the chicken drumstick and started eating it, wolfing it down and finishing one drumstick in no time.
He was born with a golden key in his mouth and never knew what hunger was. Today he can finally understand it.
He secretly vowed in his heart that as long as he could get out of here, he would work diligently and love the people, let the people live a life of food and clothing, and be a good emperor.
Only her two small hands could hold one of his big hands, and she whispered softly: "I believe someone will definitely come to save us. We must have faith and we will never give up until the last moment."
"I won't give up. I won't die before I let you live a good life."
A smile finally broke out on Chu Mengni's face.
Ouyang Shaoying kicked open the wooden door and walked into the house sharply.
Ouyang Shaogong and Chu Mengni were awakened by the sound of the door being kicked. When they opened their eyes, they saw Ouyang Shaoying standing at the door as tall as Mount Tai.
"Brother Five Emperors, what are your thoughts?" Ouyang Shaoying spoke quickly, as if he didn't want to be polite anymore.
"You don't have to waste your efforts. If you have the ability, just kill me." Ouyang Shaogong answered him simply.

"Hmph! I won't let you die so comfortably. Someone, hang him up and torture him."
Two guards came forward and dragged Ouyang Shaogong out and tied him to a wooden frame. He had no power to resist.
"Brother Sixth Emperor, you must not use punishment. Peace is the most important thing." Chu Mengni was frightened and rushed to Ouyang Shaoying to beg.
"I can't wait any longer. Even if I beat him to death, the elder brother will be the one who naturally takes the throne. Then the world will still fall into my hands." Ouyang Shaoying burst into laughter.
"Even if you don't beat him, he is going to die. He has not eaten or drank for many days."
"The only thing he can blame is that he doesn't know how to deal with things. Give me a beating until he is willing to hand over his things."
At Ouyang Shaoying's order, the guard took the whip and stood behind Ouyang Shaogong.
