Li Dou then remembered the warning Li Shiming had given him. He looked at the article in his hand. This article could be used to bully ordinary people, but in front of Li Shiming, it would definitely be whipped.
Although everyone thought that he had always been the most favored, only Li Dou himself knew that it was Empress Zhangsun who liked him. The Emperor only loved him like a pet and did not have much affection for him. If he did not listen this time, Li Shiming might really kick him out.
Apologize to Zhang Heng now?
The corner of his mouth twitched. He had arrested Zhang Heng in such a domineering manner outside, and then he would run in to apologize and ask Zhang Heng to forgive him. Wasn't that asking for his life?
After struggling for a long time, he finally decided to delay it. At the very least, he would not apologize today. Otherwise, he would lose all his face.
However, he had decided not to kill Zhang Heng and had to find a way to let him go. The others did not know how many people had planned to break into the prison overnight, such as the four women who had sneaked out of their house.
"What should we do?"
"Kill your way in and run with your men!”
"No, after running away, Xiao Heng will really become a fugitive. Besides, the world belongs to the royal family. Where can we run to?”
"Tomorrow, your families will hold a banquet to entertain that prince. Say that it's an apology. I'll go to prison.
Without Li Dou, the jailers will still give me some face. The most important thing now is to find someone to replace Heng. You guys drag Li Dou out until noon and kill that person before releasing him.
We can't dig them up. We'll hide Little Heng and wait for this prince to leave. We'll change Little Heng's name. Who can say anything?”
Shui Rou was silent for a while before she sneered. The others laughed as well, worried that Zhang Heng wouldn't be able to go out and play. If he went out, he might even have to disguise himself. It was all because of that damned prince.
It wasn't just Shui Rou and the other two. Zhangsun Youxiang, who had been observing this place, was also anxious. She didn't know Zhang Heng's identity, so she thought that Zhang Heng was dead for sure this time. After thinking about it again and again, she became anxious. She might as well bring Zhang Heng to the border. The mountains were high and the emperor was far away. No one could restrict Zhang Heng's freedom. That way, she could teach him up close. That was a good thing!
To the women, Zhang Heng's life was in danger, but to Zhang Heng, the environment inside was a little bad, and nothing else was wrong.
After eating the food that the shadow had sent over, there were four dishes and one soup. It was quite sumptuous. It seemed that the shadow had snatched it from someone else. Ever since it had followed a master like him, the shadow had become smarter and smarter. It was indeed his own teaching.
Initially, the shadow wanted to bring him out, but he refused without hesitation. It would be meaningless if he ran away at this time. He had not seen that stupid Li Dou apologize to him, nor did he put on a fearless look in front of the people.
He laid down on the straw mat in satisfaction. That fellow had been fooled by him until he was crippled, but the soldiers behind him still remembered. Today, they were arrogant, and tomorrow, they would make him kneel and apologize. They actually wanted to cut him down. They really did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.
When Zhangsun Youxiang arrived, she saw Zhang Heng lying on the straw mat and smiling foolishly. She panicked. It was impossible that those people had tortured the little guy in such a short time.
She relied on her martial arts skills to knock out a lot of people and ran in from outside. She thought that she would see Zhang Heng's excited eyes, but who knew that she would see this guy's silly face. Was he really tortured by that guy? Li Dou really deserved to die!
"Heng, I'm here to save you!"
Zhangsun Youxiang's lips trembled as she spoke. Zhang Heng was shocked and shook his head vigorously, saying that he wouldn't leave.
It was over. He had really gone crazy from the torture.
Zhang Heng looked at Zhangsun Youxiang with tears in his eyes. He didn't want to go out. He wanted to stay here. It wouldn't be long before Li Dou came in to apologize to him. If he ran out, wouldn't he miss that guy?
The most important thing was to let that guy think that he was afraid. It was too embarrassing. I'm determined not to go out. It's useless no matter who comes!
However, Zhangsun Youxiang, who had already thought of something else, felt even more heartbroken. Such a good brother had been harmed by Li Dou. She looked angrily in Li Dou's direction. She would definitely avenge her brother.
She reached out and knocked on Zhang Heng's neck. Seeing that he had finally quieted down, she heaved a sigh of relief. She hugged Zhang Heng in her arms and quickly ran out of the prison.
When Zhang Heng fell to the ground, he wanted to fight Zhangsun Youxiang to the death. Why couldn't they talk things out properly? Why did she have to be so violent? A good man like him couldn't stand it. He had wanted this woman to be his first wife, but now, she was no more. She was a mistress, a fourth, and a fifth!
When he woke up again, he was already on horseback. He looked around and saw a grassland. Behind him was Zhangsun Youxiang. He didn't know how much time had passed, but the sky was already very dark.
It was midnight when Zhangsun Youxiang entered the prison, and it was evening when he woke up. It seemed that he had been asleep for quite some time.
"You're awake. We're already at the border. Li Dou won't be able to find you again. You're safe!”Zhangsun Youxiang's voice came from behind him. Zhang Heng realized that he had been leaning against her all this time. No wonder he didn't feel any bumps along the way.
"You'd better send me back quickly. This matter was said by the prince, so I don't want to implicate you.”
Zhang Heng sighed helplessly, as if he was thinking about Zhangsun Youxiang wholeheartedly. However, from the way he gritted his teeth, it was obvious that he was about to die from anger.
She could have enjoyed a wonderful life in Jiangnan, but she was dragged to this godforsaken place by this guy. She wanted to cry, but she couldn't.
"Don't worry, that's my territory up ahead. As long as you don't say that you're the one the prince wants to kill, no one will know about you.”
Zhangsun Youxiang reached out and hugged the body in her arms tightly. What a silly boy. He was always thinking of others. Now that he was here, he could completely let go of himself.
