Chapter 246: Imprisoned in the Dark Jail
There was no time to wipe the blood off his hands and face. That was An's blood, the blood that proved that Yangyang no longer had anyone to rely on.
A group of golden-armored warriors rushed forward and peeled off An's silent corpse from Yangyang's body, making Yangyang feel a burning pain all over his body as if his skin was being peeled off.
Yangyang used up her last bit of strength to try to grab that hand, but it seemed ridiculous. Who in this world could be so selfless? Even if there was, they could only come and leave quietly like An, making it impossible to catch or hold them tightly.
Although she had not spent a long time with An, An was the only pure person in the world who had no other thoughts except protecting her.
The hand holding An's was torn off by the golden armor, skin and flesh included. This time, Yangyang didn't even feel the pain. Her face was stuck with tears and blood, which blurred her eyes but cleansed her heart.
At this point, Aunt Xi's commanding voice cut through my eardrums, "What are you still standing there for? Take her to the dark cell!"
Yangyang stood up from the golden armor covered in blood. She raised her sleeves and wiped the tears from her face, but the blood seeped into the corners of her eyes.
She looked towards the golden stage in the main hall with a half-smile, and saw the figure on the stage with his back to her, looking past Aunt Xi's hateful face. Even if she didn't understand, she couldn't forgive him.
She couldn't forgive a weak and incompetent man who didn't even dare to recognize his own daughter on behalf of these innocent lives.
He said sadly, "Why go to the dark prison? Why not just kill me right now!"
The ministers who had just seen the fighting and hid in the corner stood up when they heard the words. This scene and these words made them both timid and fearful.
So he took the lead and shouted, "Then kill her! She is a witch anyway!"
"Yes! Kill her, kill her!"
Yangyang felt that even laughing was so unnecessary. She raised her head to look at the sky with a mocking look. The clear sky made her unable to believe what she had just experienced. "Witch!" Yangyang lowered her head and looked at those ignorant and blind ministers. "How can you tell that I am a witch? Well, since you say I am a witch, then you just wait. After I die, I will claim your lives one by one!"
The ministers were restless after hearing this. "Kill her! She's crazy, she's crazy!"
In an instant, the noise was as if everyone had a blood feud with Yangyang.
Even so, Aunt Xi still stood up and said, "Don't kill her, put her in jail first!"
Minister Shensheng was indignant, "Why not kill her! Who do you think you are? You said you wouldn't kill her!" The cruelty of Aunt Xi had already spread in the court. No one knew who she was and how could she be so powerful that both King Rong and King Zi'an would submit to her demands.
As the commander-in-chief, Shensheng has disliked Aunt Xi for a long time. Now is a good time to avenge his comrades who were killed by Concubine An's evil words. How could he be willing to listen to the nonsense of an unknown woman?
Aunt Xi's eyebrows were full of anger, and Shensheng looked at her without showing any weakness.
Seeing the situation, Prince Zi'an immediately said, "Commander-in-chief, don't talk nonsense!" Then he said to Jin Jia, "What are you still standing there for? Take her away."
Shen Sheng refused to accept the offer and drew his sword, "Your Majesty!"
Prince Zi'an frowned coldly, his face twitching as he spoke slowly and in a deep voice, "This witch mother has done so many evil things, how can we let her die so easily." Then he looked at Aunt Xi, "Right! Aunt Xi!"
Aunt Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, not wanting to explain the real reason behind the incident.
If she said that her real purpose was to lock up Yangyang as a hostage to threaten King Rong, that is, to let Professor Bao tell her the data for improving this experiment, who would understand her!
Thinking back to six years ago, she was just a small assistant to Professor Bao. The original investor wanted to withdraw the investment because he had invested too much money in the experimental research on human will time travel but got no return.
Professor Xi saw her opportunity. In order to win the support of investors, she stole Professor Bao's research data. In order to speed up the research, she even went so far as to illegally detain patients in the hospital.
Although the investors saw the results in a short period of time, they also let her be the person in charge of this research project.
However, her recklessness brought about side effects of the experiment. The data used in Professor Bao's research was originally insufficient, which resulted in some of the patients in the experiment dying suddenly due to abnormal radio wave interference.
In order to cover up his crime and achieve real success in the experiment, Professor Xi repeatedly threatened and bribed Professor Bao.
But Professor Bao was unwilling to go along with someone like Professor Xi, and originally wanted to surrender himself. At worst, all the experiments he had done over the years, abandoning his wife and children, would be burned to ashes.
Just when Professor Bao was about to leave the experimental base, Professor Xi discovered that he had new research data that could improve the current experiment. In order to obtain this data, Professor Xi secretly detained him.
Finally, in order to obtain the data, Professor Xi sent Professor Bao into the time-travel world as well, and threatened that he would die in the experiment if he did not reveal the data. But even so, Professor Bao still did not compromise.
It was not until Professor Xi discovered that Professor Bao had a daughter that Professor Xi found a way to get Yangyang to the hospital and made her a piece of fish on the experimental table.
So, Aunt Xi agreed with what Prince Zi'an said. After all, she had the final say in this experiment. No matter whether it was in reality or in the world of travel, it didn't matter how many people died!
Shensheng said half-doubtfully, "Aunt Xi, do you really mean this?", and then he put away the big knife at his waist.
Aunt Xi adjusted her temples and gave Shensheng a cold look, "Master Commander, do you not believe me, nor do you believe Prince Zi'an?"
"Take her away!" Aunt Xi waved her sleeves and glanced in the direction of Jintai. No one knew what King Rong felt at the moment, seeing that his daughter was being tortured both in reality and in this world.
Obeying the order, Jin Jia immediately held Yangyang's arm and quickly escorted her off the Xiaojintai.
At this moment, Yuwen Bo and Jia Kuizhuo, who were still waiting to be summoned under the Xiaojin Stage, already felt vaguely uneasy.
Yuwen Bo kept fanning himself with the fan in his hand, and said irritably, "General Jia, why has the enthronement ceremony taken so long, and you haven't summoned you and me to come up yet?"
"I don't know either. Normally, it will only take an hour to complete the conferring, but now two hours have passed." Jia Kuizhuo murmured in his heart, wondering if it was because he had offended Shensheng that he deliberately made the two of them wait for a long time under the flames.
At this moment, a large group of golden armored men came down from the Xiaojin Platform, and the two leading them were escorting a woman covered in blood.
As they got closer, Yuwenbo and Jiakuizhuo were shocked. "Princess, how could this happen?"
Jia Kuizhuo wanted to draw his sword to block the golden armor's way, but Yuwen Bo held down his sword handle and said, "This is golden armor. I know how powerful your Rong country's golden armor is! How could you not know that?"
"But, but Yangyang is being held captive by them!" Jia Kuizhuo gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his hands.
Yuwen Bo looked at the dense golden armor swarming towards him and held Jia Kuizhuo tightly, "With so many golden armors, can you defeat a few of them? Can you save her? You are only going to lose your net and alert the enemy!"
"Yes!" Jia Kuizhuo really hated himself. He hated why he brought her back in the first place? And why he didn't listen to King Zi'an and take her away? Now he could only watch helplessly as this group of golden armors took Yangyang away from him.
Yuwen Bo covered his face with a fan, dragged Jia Kuizhuo back a few steps to make way for the golden armors, and said, "Let's make a long-term plan!"
