Chapter 1513: Bait
Release what?
Soon enough, everyone saw several dozen pale-faced people who were wailing at the top of their lungs getting driven to a small side door beside the north city gate.
Wei Nanfeng, Baili Xi, and the others, who were on top of the city gate tower, hastily looked down in surprise.
While holding Qiao Mu’s pet.i.te hand, Crown Prince Mo drifted down to the north city gate’s side door and was met by a pair of wolfish eyes.
He cast the other party a look of contempt.
This wolf cub Asi really hasn’t given up!
Luckily, his darling was a queer little lady. Because Asi had started out as her enemy, she had never liked this person.
Moreover, deep in the little lady’s heart, it was difficult to alter this antagonistic relations.h.i.+p.
“Crown Prince Mo, what are you planning by this? You want to feed the zombie army with these foolish people?” Asi snarked.
Feed?
Asi’s words stunned everyone, and they abruptly turned to look at that group of bawling men and women.
The majority of them were men in their prime, along with some women.
Yet the most conspicuous person among them was a willowy female wearing a thin red shawl.
She should have been a pretty woman, but her disheveled hair and filthy appearance made it look like she had been abused.
“Release these bait.” With a wave of Huifeng’s hand, soldiers immediately came forward to tow away those blubbering and shouting men and women who were crying for mercy, with some of them even fainting.
Wei Mingli was among these people. The moment she realized that she was going to be tossed out of the city, her entire face paled in fear. She frantically struggled to wrest out of the two soldiers’ grip as she screeched, “You cannot treat me like this, you cannot! I am one of the second prince’s people. I am… Ah!”
Wei Mingli was simply about to turn dumbstruck from fear.
She never knew that someone could actually become this unlucky.
Ever since seducing His Highness the Crown Prince ended up a failure, everything just rolled downhill from there. First, the second prince mercilessly threw her into death row.
No matter how bitterly she begged him, he still abandoned her mercilessly.
It wasn’t until then that Wei Mingli realized that in the Second Highness’s eyes—no, in the eyes of those people in power—she, Wei Mingli, was merely a miniscule ant. She did not even have the opportunity to say “no” in this fight against destiny.
After being thrown into death row, her days became a living h.e.l.l. As such a pretty woman without the strength to truss a chicken, it was obvious what she would experience.
In that dungeon devoid of light, she was repeatedly humiliated and abused, without any G.o.ds to hear her pleas. It was not easy at all for her to see the sun again, yet she did not expect that these people were planning to feed them death row prisoners to the zombie army!
Ah!!
Wei Mingli struggled frenziedly as she yelled, “Why should we be pushed out as bait.”
The jailer who had driven them outside lashed her with his whip. He smirked, “You’re a bunch of death row prisoners who were originally going to get executed. You think that you still have a way out?”
“No, I’m not a death row prisoner, I’m not! I am Wei Mingli, I am…” When Wei Mingli turned her head to the side, she eyed Qiao Mu, who was creasing her brows.
She lunged over at Qiao Mu without thinking. “Little Sister Xiao Qiao! Ah, save me, save me!”
“I am Wei Mingli, do you still remember me? It’s me! Wei Mingli! Granny Niu’s granddaughter. Wei Mingli, Wei Mingli!”
