Second marriage to the regent

The little mute came in with food. Looking at the messy and filthy Cao Lanxi, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

She put the food box on the ground, opened the lid and placed it in front of Cao Lanxi, put the food on the lid, and finally picked up the chopsticks and handed it to Cao Lanxi.

Seeing that Cao Lanxi was too wary to take the chopsticks, the little mute quietly pointed at the drinking guards behind him and gestured: If you don't eat, they will bully you.

Cao Lanxi actually understood what she wanted to say, so is there any hope in what she said to her last time?

She excitedly took the chopsticks and started eating. Firstly, if she didn't eat, she would lose her strength and be unable to wait for the rescuers. Secondly, it would harm the unrelated little mute.

Seeing that Cao Lanxi was finally willing to eat, the little mute showed a happy smile.

But then he thought that her fate would be the same as that of other women, and the little mute suddenly felt pity. How could such a noble young lady be reduced to this situation?

This man is really unfair to the fate of women.

Seeing the little mute's eyes changing so quickly, Cao Lanxi couldn't see any hope in her eyes. If she could go out, she would have escaped long ago. Why did she stay here and continue to be tortured?

The same experience made Cao Lanxi feel a little fond of the little mute in front of him.

Behind me, a thin man knocked on the cell door, urging impatiently: "Hey, hey, hey! Stay away!"

The little mute was so frightened that he quickly stood up, nodded, bowed and gestured with his hands, telling him that he would be fine soon.

When the little skinny man saw this, he turned around fiercely and returned to his seat.

Cao Lanxi speeded up her eating. She was afraid that if she were any slower, the little mute would be beaten severely.

Soon, she finished the bowl of rice.

The little mute packed up the food box and left.

After a while, the big guy was called out, and he and Cao Lanxi were the only two people left in the dungeon.

Seeing that there was no one else in the cell, the little skinny man gradually became bolder.

He opened the cell door without authorization and approached Cao Lanxi with a lewd look. Cao Lanxi looked at his actions and backed away in fear, but there was a cold wall behind her, and she had no way to retreat.

Seeing the panicked little beauty, the little skinny man became more and more arrogant. He rubbed his hands excitedly and pressed forward step by step: "Don't be afraid, be good, brother will love you!"

After saying that, he pounced towards Cao Lanxi. Cao Lanxi was so frightened that he ran away, causing him to miss.

"It's quite interesting, little beauty! It's different when you're full and you're energetic! Now it's my brother's turn to enjoy it! Come on!"

Her resistance only made the little skinny man even more excited, and he slowly approached her.

Cao Lanxi was frightened and panicked. When he hugged her, she pushed him away. Unexpectedly, his head hit the cell door and he screamed in pain.

"Smelly woman! If you don't eat the toast, you'll have to drink it as a penalty, right? I must do it to you today!"

After saying that, the little thin man ignored the pain on his forehead and forcibly pulled Cao Lanxi's head over and pushed her to the ground. He then sat on her lap and controlled her firmly on the ground.

Cao Lanxi couldn't move. Just when she thought her innocence was going to be ruined, she never thought that a masked man in black rushed in quickly and kicked his skinny body away.

"Get out! Who dares to interfere with my good deeds..." When he turned around and saw his master, the little thin man was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground and begged for mercy: "Master, please spare your life! I don't dare to do that anymore." Damn it! Spare your life, Master!"

He knelt in front of the man, as humble as an ant, but the man was as cold as an iceberg, unwilling to even look at him for charity.

The man pulled out the sword of the subordinate behind him, sealed his throat with the sword, and sent the little skinny man on his way.

The man's movements flowed smoothly and in one go.

The little thin man's eyes widened and he fell next to Cao Lanxi. She was so frightened that she straightened her clothes and stayed away from him.

The man's eyes fell on Cao Lanxi, and he suddenly leaned down and took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Cao Lanxi: "Wipe it. Once it's done, I'll take you away."

Cao Lanxi doubtfully took the handkerchief, wiped his cheek, and asked, "Are you here to save me?"

The man nodded: "Entrusted by someone." "Who?" Cao Lanxi wanted to know who saved him.

"I can't tell you." The man's attitude was very cold.

Due to the special processing of his voice, Cao Lanxi could not identify his identity.

The man helped her up, and when she was about to leave the dungeon, Cao Lanxi looked back at the little mute and said, "You can save me and she, can you take her with you?"

After hearing this, the little mute waved his hands and shook his head. This man was their master. As for his true face in Lushan, no one had seen him.

Cao Lanxi asked to take her with him. Wasn't this pushing her into a pit of fire?

The man nodded after hearing this.

In this way, the little mute was taken out of the dungeon together with her.

Cao Lanxi fell asleep unknowingly along the way, and when she woke up again, she was already lying in the Prince's Mansion.

"You're awake." Li Kun was also a little excited when he saw that Cao Lanxi was awake.

Cao Lanxi sat up and saw that besides Li Kunyi and Wen Yuming in the room, he touched his heavy head and asked, "Why am I here?"

"Brother Wen saved you." Li Kun also told the truth.

Cao Lanxi looked at Wen Yuming. He was indeed a martial arts practitioner, but how could he save him alone?

"Thank you, little prince, for the rescue." Cao Lanxi still said thank you.

Wen Yuming smiled and said: "Miss Cao, don't thank me. The person who rescued you is not me. I just brought you back from that person."

"Oh? Does the young prince know who saved me? I must thank him properly!" Cao Lanxi knew that it would not be Wen Yuming who saved her.

"This is really embarrassing." Wen Yuming felt a little embarrassed.

Cao Lanxi was puzzled: "What does the young prince mean by this?"

"Miss Cao doesn't know that my friend left Kyoto after rescuing you. After all, he provoked people, so he can't stay in Kyoto." Wen Yuming told Cao Lanxi the seriousness of the matter.

Cao Lanxi thought of the crimes he had suffered in prison and the tortured little mute, and said angrily: "I must let my father investigate this matter thoroughly, and find the real culprit and bring him to justice!"

Seeing her excitement, Li Kun comforted her and said, "I have already sent someone to notify the Prime Minister's Mansion. Miss Cao, just wait at the Prince's Mansion. As for the matter of capturing the wanted criminal, leave it to the court!"

He also had credit for finding Cao Lanxi in this matter. The prime minister owed him a favor, and he would not be able to confront him in the court in the future.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Cao Lanxi felt warmed by Li Kun's meticulous care of her.

Regent's House

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's daughter has been rescued." Li Yi came back to resume his life.

Li Junyi was obviously not interested in this matter, but handed the paper in his hand to Li Yi.

Li Yi saw that the words on the paper were well written, but he couldn't understand some words: "Where does the word "Prince" come from?"

Li Junyi's eyes fell on Su Junxi who walked in from the door. Su Junxi also noticed the paper in Li Yi's hand, took it away and took a look, wondering: "What word is this? Why can't I understand it?" "

"You can't understand?" Li Junyi was curious. He clearly saw this word on the bed and thought it was written by Su Junxi.

Su Junxi nodded: "Yes! But the handwriting is good! As the saying goes, the person who wrote this word must be very beautiful!"

"Pfft!"

There were jeers from behind.

"Li Yi! Are you finished yet?"
