Chapter 633: The Princess Still Wants to Let Him Go?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The few people in the prison didn’t escape getting a beating to extort a confession.
Several bandits couldn’t hold on and were tortured to death.
No sunlight reached the dark and cold of the prison dungeon and it was cold.
The air was filled with an unpleasant humidity.
Ren Chao was tied to a wooden rack. His face was red and swollen, and blood was seeping out from under his nose and the corner of his lips.
His clothes were tattered, and his bruised knees were exposed where his pants were torn. He was on the verge of death.
At this moment, the sound of chains loosening came from the prison’s door.
“Your Highness, he is inside. He is still breathing and isn’t dead.”
A delicate and cute voice sounded. “Alright, I’ll go take a look. It’s been hard on you, guard uncle.”
“It’s not hard, it’s not hard.”
Princess?
Ren Chao barely opened his eyes a little. He looked up and saw a child walking towards him with his blurry vision that was stained with blood.
Gu Nuo’er was wearing a white brocade robe with golden threads outlined on it. She had a small jade rabbit hairpin on her head, and the ta.s.sels hung on her forehead.
Her eyes were crystalline and black, like flickering gemstones.
In such a dirty dungeon, her appearance was out of place.
Ren Chao laughed self-deprecatingly. His voice was like a broken box as he said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Princes… What are you doing here?”
Gu Nuo’er placed her hands behind her back and smiled. “Of course I’m here to let you go!”
Ren Chao was stunned and his eyes widened in disbelief.
He was planning to kidnap the princess, but the princess still wanted to let him
Suddenly, Ren Chao thought of a possibility.
He chuckled. “Your Highness, you don’t have to lie to me. After what I did, neither His Majesty nor Marquis Yongye would let me off.” The moment the princess lets him out, he might be a.s.sa.s.sinated.
What was the difference between dying in prison?
Gu Nuo’er waved her small hand. “If I plead for leniency on your behalf, you won’t die. Elder Brother Ren Chao, you’re considered a relatively good baddie.
You bought me a lot of food and even cleared up the moat…”
“You forced me to do that!” Ren Chao resisted violently, the chains shaking violently.
Speaking of the moat, he got angry.
He originally wanted to kidnap the princess, but who knew that she would order him to dig up the mud?
That was fine, but towards the end, it was getting late and they couldn’t leave either.
The princess had someone to buy dinner over and asked them to finish digging the mud in the moat in one go after they were done eating.
To wait for an opportunity to escape, the nine bandits surrounded by the soldiers could only do as they were told.
However, just as they were done with the work, they were captured by the fifth prince’s soldiers and sent here.
Gu Nuo’er also seemed to know that this matter was a little funny from the beginning to the end.
She covered her mouth with her small hand and smiled until her eyes curved. Her black and sparkling eyes seemed to be surrounded by a layer of stars.
“Although it was my request, it can be considered that you’ve done a good deed.
I, Gu Nuo’er, have never owed anyone anything. If you treat me a little good, I’ll return a little kindness to you. On account that you failed in doing bad things, I’ll let you go.”
After saying that, she looked at the prison guard behind her.
“Guard uncle, unchain him.”
The guard really came over with the key. With a few clicks, Ren Chao fell from the rack.
Gu Nuo’er took a small step back at the right time, so the mud that splashed up didn’t dirty her white shoes.
Ren Chao staggered up from the ground.
He was in disbelief. He was free just like that?
Even though he had committed such a big wrongdoing, he didn’t die!
He looked around.
There were a few slender windows on the left and right. From there, a few rays of sunlight streamed in.
He felt like he was dreaming.
Could this be a trap?
Ren Chao’s gaze landed on Gu Nuo’er again.
At this moment, there was only one prison guard beside the princess..
