When the third prince heard what the fourth prince said, he waved his hand and asked the guards to get up. Then he asked the fourth prince: "What are you doing in this gloomy place, fourth brother? I don't want to step foot here on weekdays!"
As soon as the fourth prince came in, he looked at Li Long in the iron cage. He stepped forward, grabbed the third prince's arm with his hand, and said softly: "Third brother, please, don't torture Miss Li."
The third prince snorted coldly and said with a straight face: "How can she be charged with treason and rebellion without being punished? I am also acting according to the will of my father and for the safety of our country. Fourth brother, don't do it for
A woman forgets her identity."
The fourth prince quickly let go, cupped his hands and said, "The third brother taught you a lesson. However, I would like to ask the third brother for help. I will convince Miss Li to confess all the charges. This will save a lot of trouble!"
After hearing this, the third prince pondered for a moment, and after thinking about it, he decided to let the fourth prince give it a try. This would save his brother's face, and if he really asked for a confession and took the bond, he would save himself the trouble. That's it.
The testimony put Li Guogong's family in jail, but Li Long still fell into his hands and tortured at will. So he nodded and agreed, but warned: "Fourth brother, I will only give you half a day. If she does it, she will be exempted."
If she doesn't listen to you after being punished, don't blame your brother for being unkind."
The fourth prince agreed, walked to Li Long's iron cage, glared at the executioners, and asked them to quickly carry away the two iron cages containing human snakes. Then he squatted down and gently comforted Li Long.
When Li Long saw the fourth prince at this time, a glimmer of hope suddenly arose in his heart. Although he usually didn't want to see this little prince because he thought he was pestering him. Now it seemed that he was the only one who could save him from suffering, so he just curled up.
, looking at the fourth prince, his tear-filled eyes showed eager anticipation.
The fourth prince blinked at her, and then said softly: "I'm here to advise you, don't hide it anymore, just do whatever you want to do. Only then will the third brother let you go home."
Although Li Long was frightened when he arrived here, looking at the eyes of the fourth prince, he knew that he was indicating that he would agree first. He followed the fourth prince's words and said: "Did I follow what you said?
Can you let me go home?"
The fourth prince deliberately turned around and asked the third prince: "Third brother, is that what I said?"
The third prince cursed secretly and said in his heart: If I had known that the little girl was so easy to coax, I would have coaxed her first and then I could do whatever I wanted. With this in mind, he said: "Fourth brother said
That's right! Once you get it, everything will be fine and you can go home."
Li Long nodded hesitantly and said, "Then what do you want me to say?"
The fourth prince asked: "Do you know that Qi Shang?"
Li Long nodded and said, "I understand!"
The fourth prince asked again: "Then can you find him?"
Li Long was stunned for a moment, but seeing that the fourth prince only blinked at him, he replied: "Yes!"
The fourth prince then asked: "Then do you know where he is now?"
Li Long was a little confused. After thinking for a while, he said, "I don't know where he is now."
The fourth prince said "Oh" and shouted loudly: "What are you talking about? Just now you said you can find him, and then you said you don't know where he is. Are you trying to stall me? Tell me where he is hiding?"
After all, Li Long is also a girl with a sharp mind. After being shouted at by the fourth prince, she understood. She replied in a trembling voice: "When I am at home, he will come to me. I have never looked for him!"
Seeing that Li Long finally understood, the fourth prince secretly blinked his left eye at her. He pondered deliberately and asked: "Then you mean that as soon as you return home, Qi Shang will come to find you?"
Li Long quickly nodded and said yes. The fourth prince walked to the third prince and said, "Third brother, I think it's better to let Miss Li be the bait and we can fish out that Qi Shang!"
Upon hearing this, the third prince stretched out his hand towards the fourth prince's position, and the fourth prince followed suit and handed his hand to him. The third prince took the fourth prince and said, "We brothers still have the same mind. Okay, let's fish out Qi Shang. Then we will fish out Qi Shang."
Find some mages and capture the demon fox as well!"
The fourth prince breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and winked at Li Long, then helped the third prince out of the dungeon.
When Li Guogong arrived outside the Palace of the King of Yue, his chamberlain informed him that the King of Yue had something to do and would not receive the courtiers today. At that time, Duke Li knelt down outside the palace gate and said to his chamberlain: "I, Li Qu, have followed Your Majesty in the South and North wars, and have made great contributions.
I have only one request today, please your Majesty to pass the decree and save my daughter!"
The chamberlain also looked embarrassed and said: "My lord, aren't you making things difficult for me? How dare I go back and complain? If this offends Your Majesty, I won't be able to chop off ten heads!"
Li Guogong had no choice but to kneel there, hoping to meet the King of Yue.
Gu Yuetian was wandering around Fucheng, and happened to arrive outside King Yue's palace. He saw someone kneeling outside the palace gate from a distance. He had nothing to do, so he went up to take a look. It was Li Qu, the protector of the country, talking to the servant.
When Gu Yuetian heard this, his heart moved. Thinking of the Li sisters he had just mentioned to Ying'er, Ying'er was extremely worried. Now something happened. He pretended that nothing happened and went forward. These days, he
After wandering around Fucheng all day, he also remembered the third prince's government office. He strolled outside the third prince's government office, looked at the soldiers guarding the door from a distance, and thought about how to get in and take a look.
.
At this moment, a young man in fine clothes came out of the government office, followed by two guards, and walked towards Gu Yuetian. Gu Yuetian rolled his eyes and had an idea. He waited for the young man to walk out for a while, then followed him.
Behind, after a while, they arrived at the fourth prince's mansion. When he saw the young man entering, Gu Yuetian knew that this young man must be the fourth prince of Yue Kingdom. So he walked around the mansion and looked at
No one paid attention to me, so I crossed the courtyard wall and entered the courtyard in a flash.
Gu Yuetian looked at the layout of the courtyard and knew where to look for the fourth prince. He first hid in a secluded place, knocked out a guard, changed his clothes, lowered his head and walked forward. When he arrived at the hall, he saw the four princes.
The prince was sitting alone in the room. Gu Yuetian opened the door and went in. The fourth prince was stunned and asked, "Who is it? Is something wrong?"
Gu Yuetian laughed and said: "If you answer me well, nothing will happen. If you don't obey, something will happen!"
When the fourth prince heard this, he raised his head and looked at the person carefully. He knew that it was not good because he was not a guard in his palace. However, although he was young, he was a little timid. He asked coldly: "Who are you, who broke into my palace?"
What happened?"
Gu Yuetian didn't hesitate and asked directly: "You just came back from your third brother's place. Let me ask you, is the second young lady of the Li family imprisoned by you three?"
The fourth prince was stunned when he heard this and asked: "Who are you and how do you know this?"
Gu Yuetian raised his sleeves and waved, revealing a fierce look with a fox face. The fourth prince was so frightened that he screamed and sat on the chair. Gu Yuetian followed him further, stared at him closely, and asked: "If you don't want to be eaten alive,
, just tell me quickly."
The fourth prince heard that the person in front of him was the demon fox that the third prince was extremely afraid of. He thought that this demon fox would be able to help Li Long according to the wishes of the third brother. So he told Gu Yuetian everything he knew.
After hearing this, Gu Yuetian roughly understood the reason for the matter. After thinking about it, he said, "Then how are you going to use Miss Li's family to lure me out?"
The fourth prince said: "I don't know. I have never seen you at all. I just wanted to rescue Miss Li first."
Gu Yuetian nodded and said: "Okay, then you and them continue to make arrangements. Let Miss Li go home first, and I will naturally go back and surrender myself." After saying that, he smiled and shook his clothes in front of the fourth prince.
The fourth prince saw a flash of flowers before his eyes, and the demon fox disappeared.
The fourth prince was so frightened that he sat on the chair for a long time before he got up, trembling and walked to the door. Often, outside, the sky was still clear, the sun was bright and the wind was warm, and everything was as usual. Could it be that I had a dream? The fourth prince thought to himself secretly.
.
Speaking of Gu Yuetian, he returned to King Wuyou's residence from the fourth prince's house, and quietly told King Wuyou about the news he had just found out, and asked: "Then the young lady of the Li family, do you still want to take care of her?"
King Wuyou thought for a while and said: "I wanted to use a trick to remove Lord Huo's military power and cut off King Yue's right-hand man. However, if the trick is carried out, innocent people will inevitably be hurt. This is not a big deal in the first place. Who told you to tell Ying
Son, I'm afraid that she will think about this again. If she knows that Miss Li was implicated and lost her life, I'm afraid that she will be unhappy. Since you caused this trouble, go and solve it and see if she can be saved here.
, meet with Ying'er, let Ying'er relax, and then send her to a place to fend for herself."
After hearing this, Gu Yuetian shook his head and said, "I provoked whoever, and I got such a job for nothing." After saying that, he got up and went out. King Wuyou looked at his back and smiled softly.
Li Guogong knelt outside the palace for a long time until he fainted. Then he was carried by several family members, got on the horse and returned home. Not long after, a group of imperial troops broke in and brought Li Long back, but not long after.
Whatever he said to Li Guogong, he was directly escorted to the embroidery building, and then soldiers were ambushing everywhere in the courtyard. Li Guogong didn't know why, and no one answered him when he wanted to ask. Only one general said to him coldly: "Don't make any noise.
, just as usual."
Li Guogong was frightened and worried. Thinking about his daughter's haggard face when she came in, he knew that she had been greatly frightened. He wanted to ask questions, but was not allowed to move around freely, so he and his wife could only worry secretly.
At nightfall, as the midnight clock sounded, a figure appeared on Li Long's embroidery building. As if to attract the attention of the soldiers, the figure looked up to the moon and howled.
The soldiers of the Vietnamese army originally thought that no fox demon would come. Even if they came, it was the first day, and they would not be so unlucky. Who knew that it would backfire, and the fox demon would appear.
The Vietnamese army rushed out and lit a fire. The archers bent their bows and set arrows, and a group of Taoist priests jumped into the middle of the yard to perform rituals. For a while, the front of Li Long's embroidery building was full of smoke.
The fox demon lowered his head and looked around on the top of the building, then suddenly waved his hand, and bursts of smoke came out from all around the embroidery building, quickly covering the entire embroidery building.
