Translator: Endlessæantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
An hour later, Gu Qingxue arrived at the underground prison of the prince regent’s residence.
There were no other prisoners in the dungeon. The secret guards were all standing guard outside the dungeon, making it particularly quiet in the dungeon. One could even hear Gu Chengbin’s crying.
Gu Qingxue slowed down her steps and heard Gu Chengbin’s cries mixed with curses.
“That d.a.m.ned Gu Qingxue. Sob, sob, sob, it must be that b*tch who keeps sowing discord, causing us to have no choice but to suffer here! After I leave this place, the first thing I’ll do is to kill that b*tch. I want to let that b*tch know what the consequences of provoking me are…” Gu chengbin’s body was covered in wounds. He was in pain and cold, and his nose was sniffling.
Because Gu Chengbin was too focused on crying, he didn’t notice that Gu Qingxue had quietly walked to his back.
On the other hand, Madam Kou had been on guard against her surroundings the entire time. When she heard the sound of footsteps, she realized that something was When she raised her head and saw Gu Qingxue, her eyes immediately filled with deep disgust. “Son, don’t say anymore.”
“Why wouldn’t l? I’m telling the truth. I, I’ll make Gu Qingxue suffer a fate worse than death. I’ll let her understand the consequences of provoking me!” Gu Chengbin had just finished speaking when he heard a chuckle.
Gu Chengbin looked to his side and was surprised to see Gu Qingxue standing outside the cell. He stammered, ‘You, why are you here?”
“I’m here to see what will happen to you and your mother. Gu Chengbin, I haven’t seen you for a few days and you’ve become more daring than before.” Gu Qingxue looked at Gu Chengbin with a faint smile.
Gu Chengbin was so scared that he had gooseb.u.mps all over his back. “Gu
Qingxue, I’m warning you. If you dare to kill me, you’ll go to jail too!”
“Gu Chengbin, what you’re saying is interesting. The person who brought you to the prince regent’s residence is the prince regent’s men, not me. I’m only here to take a look at you and your mother. If you and your mother suddenly die after seeing me, then I can’t do anything. Do you think anyone would offend the prince regent for the two of you?” Gu Qingxue stood at a distance from the cell door and smiled at the helpless mother and son. Her words were sharp to the extreme.
“Don’t think that you can scare me like this. I don’t believe that you’ll dare to kill me,” Gu Chengbin’s face was pale with fear, but he was still very stubborn.
Madam Kou simply remained silent. She only looked at Gu Qingxue with resentful eyes and did not speak.
Gu Qingxue smiled, then asked Liu Yi to bring a chair over and sit outside the cell. “Liu Yi, Gu Chengbin tried to challenge the prince regent’s authority. This is disrespectful to His Royal Highness and should be punished. Bring him out.”
“Yes.” Liu Yi nodded and opened the door of the cell. Then, he pulled Gu Chengbin up from the ground.
Gu Chengbin’s arrogant expression immediately disappeared. He tried to resist, but he was no match for Liu Yi. “Mother, mother, please save me!”
“Gu Qingxue!” On the other side, Madam Kou, who had been standing still all this while, finally stood up in excitement. She stumbled over, but she was still a step too late. She could only watch as Liu Yi dragged Gu Chengbin out and quickly locked the door of the cell.
“Gu Qingxue, don’t you hate me? I was the one who treated you badly after I married you. I was the one who married you to the Dafu village. It was I who let the servants watch over you, humiliate you, and sent people to a.s.sa.s.sinate you! All your suffering was caused by me. If you want to take revenge, you should come to me!” Madam Kou grabbed the cell door with both hands and glared viciously at Gu Qingxue.. “Why don’t you dare to lay a hand on me? Haha, Gu Qingxue, are you scared?”
