After a long conversation, Baiyifei left the palace.
In the Han court, the Prime Minister was the leader of the civil officials. Apart from him, the Great General Ji Wuye was the only one who controlled half of the court. He could be said to be very famous.
Although Ji Wuye was the leader of the Night Dynasty, they were not united. The Four Rapscallions of the Night Dynasty could only be together because of the word 'benefit'. It was the chain of interests that locked them together.
Only in this way could he maximize his benefits.
The four ferocious generals of the night were the Marquis of Blood Clothes and the Jade Tiger on the Stone. Blue Sea Tidal Demoness, Moonlight Raincoat Guest.
The four of them controlled the Han Country in the military, politics, finance, and the entertainment industry. They had considerable power in both the government and the opposition.
General Ji Wuye's existence was more like the leader of this alliance.
Although Han Wangan was muddle-headed, he was not that old. Although Ji Wuye was the general of the Han Kingdom in name, he did not have much military power. He was not even as powerful as Bai Yifei. Moreover, Han Wangan supported the prime minister to stand in the imperial court, allowing him and Ji Wuye to restrain each other and maintain the balance of the situation in the imperial court.
From his conversation with Madam Mingzhu, Bai Yifei had learned a few things. At least, if he were to fall out with Ji Wuye in the future, his cousin would stand on his side without hesitation.
As for the Jadeite Tiger on the Rock, he was not only greedy for money, but also afraid of death. He could easily subdue him. As for the Moonlight Raincoat Guest, his nature was even simpler. As long as you gave him money, he would be able to gather information for you. It did not matter who he was loyal to.
He would be loyal to whoever could give him the greatest benefits.
At night, the stars were twinkling and the silver moon hung high in the sky, giving a glimmer of light to the dark land.
In an abandoned courtyard on the outskirts of New Zheng City, weeds overgrown the courtyard. It was a desolate and dilapidated scene. Among the weeds, there was a dry well. The top of the dry well was pressed down by a huge bluestone, almost sealing the well.
"Lord Marquis, are we really going to let that person out?”In the courtyard, Bai Wenqiu held a torch in his hand. The flickering light from the torch lit up the surrounding space. His expression turned serious as he looked at the figure beside him and asked in a deep voice.
"That's right. After raising him in this dry well for dozens of years, it's time for him to use his remaining heat.”A cold smile flashed in the depths of Baiyi's eyes. The memory fragments in his mind churned as he recalled the scene ten years ago when he led his army to conquer the Baiyue Land.
It was precisely because of that battle in the Yue Country that countless souls died under his sword. The land of the Yue Country flowed like a river, and his white clothes were dyed red. With such meritorious deeds, after he returned to the court, he was bestowed the title of the Blood Red Cloak Marquis!
"This subordinate will turn on the switch of the dry well." Bai Wenqiu nodded and walked towards the well, ready to turn on the switch.
The people in the dry well also needed three meals a day. Naturally, this dry well could not be completely sealed, but there was a hidden switch.
As for why he had released that person, he had never thought about it, because that was not something he had to consider. He only had one thing to do, and that was to unconditionally carry out the Lord Marquis 'orders.
"There's no need. He's about to be released and see the light of day again. This dry well has no meaning to exist anymore.”Shaking his head, Bai Yifei's blood-red robe fluttered in the wind as he walked toward the dry well.
Whoosh. He gently raised his palm and pushed against the huge green rock covering the dry well. A bone-chilling air current surged out.
Immediately, the huge green rock was instantly frozen.
"Break!" After softly uttering these words, the huge green rock above the dry well shattered with a sound. It was as if an ice surface had been broken, transforming into tiny pieces that scattered down.
Then, a fiery red light flickered in the center of the frozen rocks. It was as if a blazing flame was burning. In an instant, it turned into powder and dissipated into the air...
Seeing this scene, Bai Wenqiu's pupils constricted. He thought to himself that Lord Marquis's strength was becoming more and more terrifying and unfathomable.
"Let's go in."
After the green boulder shattered, the scene in the well appeared. It was not as dark as he had imagined. Instead, it was very bright, as if there were countless torches shining brightly.
At the bottom of the well, there were steps paved with bluestone. Bai Yifei stepped on the bluestone steps and slowly entered the prison that was once secretly built.
He had only been to this place once, when he imprisoned that person.
Beneath the dry well, there was a whole new world. As Bai Yifei walked closer, the scenery beneath the well suddenly changed. His vision suddenly became clear. On the smooth walls around him, there were candlesticks five steps away. Candles appeared on the candlesticks, illuminating the surroundings.
"It's extremely dark and humid. It's indeed a good place to imprison prisoners. It's just a pity…it's useless from now on.”Baiyifei's blood-red eyes were as sharp as swords as he scanned the surroundings.
After a while, Bai Yifei and Bai Wenqiu gradually approached the end of the prison.
"Ahhh…Bai Yifei, you're finally here! I'm going to kill you!”
Before he reached the end of the prison, he heard a hoarse voice that sounded like the wailing of a ghost. It was filled with a murderous aura that echoed throughout the entire prison.
Not long after, Baiyifei arrived at the end of the prison.
There was a lake in front of them. This lake was about 300 feet in diameter. The water in the lake had a green-black luster. There was also a pungent stench that spread over the lake.
Above the lake space, there was a cage made of black iron. This cage was connected to the surrounding walls by 12 iron chains and floated in the air. In the cage, there was an extraordinary figure. His body was wrapped in black iron chains and some even penetrated into his flesh. The blood on the iron chains had solidified, and only a faint trace could be seen.
Such a large-scale imprisonment showed how much importance the Blood Strike Marquis and the others had placed on this person.
Of course, it also indirectly showed how dangerous this person was.
Bai Yifei's lips curled into a devilish smile. He raised his blood-red eyes slightly and looked at the cage floating above the lake, or rather, the figure in the cage. He smiled gently and said," Tianze, I didn't expect you to still be so attached to me after not seeing me for decades. You're always thinking about me coming. It's really hard for you to be so persistent for decades."”
"Not only that, I'm even constantly praying to the heavens that you don't die outside. It's best if you live to a hundred years old so that one day, this prince can kill you with his own hands.”
Within the cage, the sound of metal clashing against metal rang out. Then, a hoarse voice like that of a malicious ghost echoed endlessly.
