Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

Heaven Prison.

Liao Kong followed several Thousand Feather Army soldiers over.

Ying Yufu knew he was no ordinary child and was not afraid of the eerie atmosphere of the prison.

Upon seeing him, Ying Yufu said directly to him, "These few are all afflicted with the Half-Moon Gu and need your help to remove it."

The woman in red and the group of blacksmiths in the prison cell looked suspicious when they saw that Ying Yufu had actually summoned a seven or eight-year-old child.

"Princess Anguo, is this the child you spoke of who can cure us of the curse?"

The woman in red was incredulous.

Ying Yufu said, "He is my younger brother. Don't let his young age fool you; he really has the ability to help you remove the curse. Don't judge a book by its cover."

Liao Kong's dark eyes looked at the woman in red and the others.

The woman in red and the others then noticed that the child's eyes were completely black, with no whites, which was truly bizarre.

They couldn't help but gasp, "This child..."

"My younger brother is an extraordinary person!" Ying Yufu said proudly.

Liao Kong glanced at her, his lips slightly pursed, a hint of helplessness mixed with a smile.

She is indeed the older sister, but his combined age across both lifetimes is greater than hers.

Liao Kong took out the Thousand Gu Inducing Device and shook it gently. The Gu King inside jumped out and went towards the group.

The woman in red and the others looked at him in surprise, but the next moment, they were stunned.

Because they could clearly feel the crescent-shaped worms parasitizing their bodies beginning to stir.

But this restlessness was different from the usual occurrences. There was no pain, no feeling of being worse than death; there was only a faint sense that the Crescent Moon Gu seemed to want to escape.

The group of people had strange expressions. A moment later, a semi-transparent white Gu worm crawled out of each of their ears.

As soon as those Gu worms emerged, they were devoured by the empty black centipede Gu King.

Having eaten and drunk its fill, the black centipede skillfully returned to the Thousand Gu Pull.

Clearly, it has made the Thousand Gu Inducing its 'home'.

Meanwhile, in the prison cell, the woman in red and the others stared in shock.

The Half-Moon Gu, which had controlled them for over a decade and prevented them from escaping, was finally lifted?

"I...I really can't sense the Gu worm anymore!" a tall, strong man murmured in disbelief.

The other blacksmiths were also weeping with joy at regaining their freedom.

Two lines of tears silently streamed down the woman in red's face. Noticing Ying Yufu's gaze, she casually wiped them away and knelt down in Ying Yufu's direction.

"I bow to Third Sister to express my deepest gratitude to Princess Anguo and my young benefactor for their life-saving grace!"

She bowed deeply.

Seeing this, the other blacksmiths also knelt down one after another.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully saved the lives of everyone at the Wangxiang Blacksmith Shop. System reward: 2000 points.]

2000 point?

Ying Yufu asked in surprise, "Xiao Dian, saving them actually gave me 2000 points! Who are they?"

Normally, if a spy from another country is rescued, it would be of no value.

Because those spies wouldn't provide any useful intelligence.

They are even enemies.

But the current situation is clearly not right.

"Host, you'll find out soon enough," Little Madman said, keeping everyone in suspense.

Ying Yufu didn't press Xiao Dian further. She looked at Xiang San Niang and the others on the ground and said, "Get up. I said I could save you, and I will."

"Princess Anguo, although we have been hiding in Beixuan for eighteen years, we have never done anything to harm Beixuan, or rather, they have never used us before."

"This time, during the treasure raid, they're hiding in the Wangxiang blacksmith shop; this is the first time they've used us."

Ying Yufu's heart skipped a beat.

"Are you saying you didn't do anything?"

"Yes, Princess Anguo, although we are from Dongchen, we are all burdened with a blood feud."

Those people used our family and friends as hostages, planted the Half-Moon Gu on us, and forced us to come to Beixuan to work as spies.

If we do not comply, they will target our family and friends, and torture us with the Half-Moon Gu.

We had no choice but to come to Beixuan; there was simply no place for us in Dongchen.

Ying Yufu looked at them seriously, "I promised you before that I would not interrogate you, use torture, persuade you to surrender, or try to turn you against me. However, if you want to say something, I can only listen to it."

After saying that, she ordered the jailer to bring two chairs.

She and the other two sat down, one on each.

Xiang San Niang and the others were stunned by her behavior.

Perhaps because they had been suppressing their feelings for too long, Xiang San Niang and the others did have a desire to confide in each other, so they started talking to themselves.

"Third Sister was born into a family of military officers; her father was a fifth-rank commander of a thousand households in the Eastern Chen Kingdom."

It's a pity that my father chose the wrong side. After the Crown Prince was deposed, the Prince Chen's faction became arrogant and domineering, and officials like my father from the Crown Prince's faction all met with bad ends.

San Niang's father and brothers were all killed. They spared the lives of her mother and sisters and held San Niang hostage. San Niang had no choice but to submit to their control and come to Dongchen.

My brothers in the blacksmith shop are in similar situations to me. Their families and friends were all forced to flee to Beixuan because His Highness the Crown Prince was deposed and harmed by Prince Chen.

Ying Yufu listened very attentively.

She had heard some things about the power struggles within the Dongchen royal family, but not much, as these were, after all, secrets of the Dongchen royal family.

He had only heard a mention of it from someone working for the Mu family business.

It is said that when the crown prince of Dongchen Kingdom was deposed, Prince Chen rose to power, seized control of the court.

The entire lineage of the deposed crown prince met a tragic end.

I heard that the deposed crown prince's birth mother, who is also the empress of Dongchen Kingdom, has been practicing Buddhism with her hair intact at the royal temple of Dongchen Kingdom for more than forty years.

The reason was not only because the crown prince was deposed, but also because the empress had given birth to a princess in addition to the deposed crown prince.

However, the princess was lost at birth and her whereabouts are unknown.

Judging by her age, if the missing Grand Princess of Dongchen Kingdom were still alive, she would be over forty years old now.

"His Highness the Crown Prince should not be deposed, not because he was our former master and therefore shows favoritism."

Rather, it is because the Crown Prince is kind-hearted and a rare future wise ruler.

The Empress was kind and magnanimous, and had a very close relationship with His Majesty, resulting in a harmonious relationship between the Emperor and Empress.

With them, Dongchen should have been getting better and better.

But one day, after the Empress lost the Grand Princess, everything changed.

The emperor and empress turned against each other, the crown prince plotted a rebellion, and Prince Chen seized control of the court overnight, after which the crown prince was deposed.

Even the Empress's maternal family, the Nangong family, was accused of treason and was wiped out overnight.

The sky over Dongchen has completely changed.

Ying Yufu gasped, "The Nangong family, a family of military generals in Dongchen Kingdom, has been loyal and brave for generations. How could they possibly be accused of colluding with the enemy and betraying the country?"

Hmm, Dongchen borders Beixuan. If they are accused of treason, could it be that they are colluding with Beixuan?

"This has never happened in Bei Xuan. We, Bei Xuan, will not take the blame for this."

Xiang San Niang gave a bitter smile, "Of course the Nangong family would never collude with the enemy or betray the country; it's all just a fabrication on their part."
