Chapter 225: The Princess Who Destroyed a Country VS the Brutal Emperor 3
After saying that, he strode behind the screen to give her enough privacy.

It was quiet inside for a long time before the sound of water splashing was heard.

The maid brought the clothes to the gauze screen, but did not leave immediately. Instead, she helped her bathe.

"Need not--"

"Can you please get my personal maid over?" Ling Mo asked tentatively.

The maid turned and looked at His Majesty who was not far away.

The man raised his chin slightly and agreed.

Soon, Cui'er was released from the prison and taken directly to the king's bedroom.

"Princess!" Cui'er found out on the way why she was released, so she started crying as soon as she entered the door. But when she looked inside, she was suddenly met with the tyrant's cold eyes.

The man who took off his armor was wearing a noble purple robe with a golden dragon pattern. He had a strong and upright figure. At this moment, he was sitting beside the tea table, wiping his bloody sword.

Cui'er fell silent instantly, her hands and feet became cold, and she subconsciously stepped back and tried to escape.

"Cui'er?!" Ling Mo's surprised voice came from behind the gauze screen.

Between being afraid of the tyrant and going to find the princess, Cui'er chose the latter. Pretending not to see the man outside, she walked behind the gauze screen with trembling legs but without losing speed.

"Princess..." Cui'er thought the princess had committed suicide long ago, but she didn't expect to see her again. She was so happy that she couldn't help crying.

Yin Lan frowned.

The little princess had stopped crying, but the maid's arrival made her sob again.

Each sound was like a scratch in his heart, making him feel itchy and numb.

He somewhat regretted bringing the person over.

"Your Majesty..." Ling Mo suddenly spoke in a crying voice, like a kitten stretching out its claws, testing, "Can Cui'er and I be alone for a while?"

Yin Lan subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when the words came to her lips, she felt that she had finally been bold enough, and if she refused, she would not dare to ask for anything in the future.

"That's right."

He left the bedroom.

The maids and servants outside couldn't help but flash with shock in their eyes.

Your Majesty...was kicked out?

Looking at the emperor standing outside the palace, neither leaving nor going in, the word that this captive princess was deeply loved by the emperor spread quickly.

This coincided with Yin Lan's order to marry the Tenth Princess, and the situation became increasingly out of control.

However, this effect will only appear after several days.

At this moment, both the master and the servant in the hall were worried about the future.

"Princess, find a chance to escape before the Emperor of Central Plains kills you." Cui'er has followed Ling Mo since she was a child, and she knows that Ling Mo has a delicate and soft personality, and even has no opinion of her own.

So he directly suggested that she quickly escape from this den of wolves.

Ling Mo shook his head and said, "No, the tyrant is threatening me with his people, how can I abandon them and leave?"

Cui Er was anxious: "Princess, I know there is something wrong, but I have to say it. During his reign, the king was extremely licentious and oppressed the people. As a princess, they must hate you very much."

Ling Mo was angry: "Cui Er, how can you say that about our father?"

[The little girl follows a confused master, but she can still see clearly. Not bad. ]

[Host, you are now the confused master. ]

[You little piece of shit, I'm still angry, shut up. ]

System: ...It's back. Awesome.

Cui Er was so anxious that she couldn't help but grab her shoulders and try to shake her head to see if she had water in it. "Princess! The king left you alone to face the Yan army. It's obvious that he has no father-daughter feelings for you. How can you not recognize it!"

"That's enough, Cui'er! I'm the most useless person in the royal family. Keeping me here to preserve the dignity of the royal family is the greatest contribution I can make. Father's decision is right." Ling Mo played the role of a stupid princess to perfection, making Cui'er so angry that she had difficulty breathing.

Why did she feel that the princess was even dumber than before... Bah, bah, bah, the princess was just too kind, she wasn't stupid.

The topic of instigating the Tenth Princess to escape ended with Ling Mo's unilateral rejection.

Cui'er had no choice but to do this for the time being.

After Ling Mo finished washing up, people from the imperial kitchen brought him food.

Yin Lan just left for something.

Ling Mo and Cui'er breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The enemy broke into the city in the morning, and it was already dark now. The master and servant were starving. Cui'er wanted to serve the princess first and then go to eat, but Ling Mo drove out all the other palace servants and pulled her to sit at the table.

"Princess, no." Cui'er quickly refused.

"I'm not a princess anymore. Now I only have you. There's no point in worrying about these things." Ling Mo sighed, and pushed her to her seat with rare force, and handed her the chopsticks. "Eat. You may never be able to eat such a meal again in the future."

Cui Er was overwhelmed with sadness after hearing what she said. Her eyes turned red. She raised her sleeves to cover up. She took the chopsticks and took a mouthful of the rice cooked with pearl rice. "It's delicious. Princess, eat more too. You haven't eaten anything since this morning..."

As she was talking, she stopped talking and buried her head in eating. Her tears fell on the rice, making it wet and salty.

When the little girl wanted to hide, Ling Mo pretended not to see it and ate quietly.

At night, there were only the two of them in the huge palace. Yin Lan seemed to be stuck on something and did not come back until late at night.

I asked the eunuch chief outside, and he said that the emperor had not ordered them to leave, so they could just rest here.

A few days later, the night sky was dark with dim stars and dark clouds, with signs of heavy rain.

The military flags fluttered in the wind.

More than a dozen bodies lay on the ground, covered with white sheets.

A soldier pulled open the white cloth covering one of the men, revealing the face of the ruler of Xulian State, who was frivolous due to excessive indulgence in sexual activities. As he had been dead for two days, his face was pale and blue, and he looked as scary as a ghost.

"When we caught up with them, they had already been beaten to death by the refugees." Yuan Haonan reported in a deep voice, "We also checked those civilians, and they were indeed the people of Xulian Country."

The Xu Lian royal family did not die at the hands of the enemy, but instead at the hands of their own people. All we can say is - they brought this upon themselves, and God is watching, so it is not unfair.

A huge thunder exploded in the sky, illuminating the entire sky and the earth, as well as the horrific bloody hole on the corpse.

Yin Lan's face was gloomy. He had no emotions towards these retributions. The only thing he was thinking about was the little princess. He wondered how sad she would be if she knew the truth.

"Your Majesty, now that things have come to this, why not hang their bodies on the city wall to deter spies from other countries and win over the hearts of the people at the same time?" suggested a civil official.

"No." Yin Lan thought of Ling Mo's crying appearance and ordered in a cold voice, "Bury him in the Xu Lian King's Tomb. Send soldiers to guard it and don't let anyone disturb him."

"This..." The civil officials wanted to persuade him but were a little afraid to do so.

Yuan Haonan was the first to speak up and stop them: "Your Majesty, these royal families are arrogant and extravagant, and they levy heavy taxes and collect taxes tyrannically. It is the least of their crimes that their bodies are left lying in the wilderness. How can they be buried in the royal mausoleum?"

Of course Yin Lan knew this, but he fought all over the world just to expand his territory, not to enforce justice. If he knew how to deal with these people before, he would leave it to his subordinates.

But since he has someone in mind, he will still be partial even if he knows it is wrong.

It is a habit ingrained in our bones.

Biasedness, paranoia... they all have a "bias" in them, but how can you be paranoid if you are not biased first?

Let’s not talk about partiality, just talk about paranoia. That’s not love, that’s selfishness.
