The Queen of Water: The Nine Lords of the Bully

Chapter 71 What happened?

That night.

The sky was covered by a thick layer of dark gray clouds, and the shadow of the moon could not be seen.

The majestic palace is shrouded in the dark night.

The imperial palace tonight seemed extraordinarily quiet, apart from the occasional chirping of insects in the garden, everything was as quiet as if there was no sound.

In the study room with flickering candles.

Xia He glanced at the pitch-black sky outside, and then at Xiahou Fengli who was sitting on the soft couch reading a book with a straight face, the expression on his face was very anxious.

Several times, Xia He wanted to go forward and beg the crown prince to save the crown princess, but she always retreated without taking a step.

She was afraid that if she really begged, it would make things worse——

After all, the person who holds the crown princess is the queen...

but……

Xia He was full of worry.

It has been a whole day since the princess was locked in the dungeon!
I heard from the gate guard that the Empress ordered that in order to punish the Crown Princess, she was not allowed to deliver water or food to the Crown Princess...

If this continues, even a body made of iron will not be able to bear it!

It's late autumn now, and at night, it's so cold that it makes people shiver.

She was so worried that the Crown Princess would not be able to bear it, and passed out in the dungeon, and then caught the cold, and then...

The more Xia He thought about it, the more worried she became, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.

Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer, took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and heart, and went out!

"His Royal Highness!" Xia He made a "plop" and knelt down in front of Xiahou Fengli.

"In the middle of the night, why don't you go back to rest and come to me and kneel?" Xiahou Fengli responded indifferently, without raising his head, his dark eyes were always staring at the book in his hand.

"H-His Royal Highness, please, please go and see the Crown Princess...the Crown Princess...the Crown Princess has never drank a drop of water or eaten anything since she was imprisoned!"

Xiahou Fengli narrowed his black eyes slightly, but did not make any movement, "The person that the queen mother wants to imprison, even if the prince has intentions, he can't save him."

Even if it could be saved, he didn't want to!

The queen mother is right, that woman should indeed be taught a lesson!
Otherwise, she would not understand her current situation!

It was just a tool for him to take revenge on Huang Fulian when he came back from captivity, what right did he have to shout and scream in the palace, and dare to disrespect himself and the queen mother?
By being kind to her, do you think you can climb on top of him and play wild?

Xiahou Fengli sneered.

"His Royal Highness, then... slave... can slave send some food to the princess?" Seeing that His Royal Highness was not interested in saving the princess, Xia He had no choice but to retreat next best.

Xiahou Fengli didn't respond, and just flipped through the book in his hand.

"His Royal Highness, the Crown Princess hasn't had a drop of water for a whole day. The servant is worried about her health, please allow the servant to bring some food to the Crown Princess..." Xia He lay on the ground, begging bitterly.

The people on the soft couch remained unmoved and continued to remain silent.

However, the slightly twitching corners of his eyes revealed that he had long been influenced by Xia He's words.

"His Royal Highness, if it's too late, I'm afraid the princess's body will not be able to hold on." Xia He refused to give up, and kept saying, "All the maids who have been locked in the dungeon say that it is not only dark inside, but also It's still damp. If you stay in it for a long time, you will definitely get sick. Maybe the princess can't bear it anymore and fainted..."
