685 Chapter 685. Tyrant
"See Your Majesty!"
When the soldiers guarding the royal dungeon saw Davis, they immediately put their legs together and saluted.
Davis was expressionless, smelling of alcohol, and walked past the soldiers. Someone had already opened the dungeon door and let him in.
The dark and long corridor twists and turns downwards. A layer of pebbles is laid on the ground to prevent the road from being wet and slippery. Fire racks are set up on both sides of the corridor. The whale oil lamp flickers with dim and unclear flames. Davis’s shadow is drawn across the wall. Very long, twists and turns like a ghost.
"Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat..."
A sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor.
Davis landed on the ground with one foot, looking over, one side was full of pigeon cage-like prisons, cramped, dark, and damp.
The moment Davis appeared, it attracted the attention of many prisoners in large and small prisons. Their eyes were either hatred, flat, or indifferent, and they watched Davis walk past the prison coldly.
Davis completely ignored the gazes around him, these people were all followers who supported his younger brother Dai Mubai before, he didn't care about these losers at all.
When he came to a prison, Davis stopped suddenly. Through the reinforced iron fence, Davis looked at the woman in black sitting in the corner, and said in a very cold voice:
"Zhu Zhuqing, it's your fate, someone has come to save you."
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly turned around.
The firelight came in and landed on Zhu Zhuqing's body, reflecting a withered and haggard face, with red circles around the eyes, it was obvious that he had cried not long ago, and there are still some red and swollen traces. There was a lot of dust on it, and it was not bundled up, and it was draped casually on his shoulders.
Ever since Dai Mubai was murdered and the upheaval of the Xingluo royal family took place, Zhu Zhuqing, as Dai Mubai's partner, was imprisoned in this dark dungeon. Mubai's every detail.
Let alone a soul master whose physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary people, even a normal person like Zhu Zhuqing would have already fallen ill.
The reason why Zhu Zhuqing has supported until now is that deep down in her heart she does not believe that Dai Mubai died so easily. In her mind, Dai Mubai is an indomitable hero who will never be killed by some conspiracy.
Even though she knew that this hope was very slim, even less than one ten thousandth chance, she still hoped with enthusiasm that Dai Mubai would be fine.
Maybe, some people will say that Zhu Zhuqing is stupid, maybe, some people will say that Zhu Zhuqing can't distinguish reality, and doesn't know how to bow to reality.
However, this may be a woman's firm persistence, for the one she loves.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, which were like stagnant water, seemed to have regained some vitality because of Davis' words, and his voice was a little dry, saying:
"Is it Mubai who came to save me?"
"No, my stupid brother died two months ago." Davis ignored Zhu Zhuqing's desperate expression, and said coldly, "The person who saved you It was Yang Ming, he proposed a deal, as long as I let you go, he will withdraw all the troops surrounding Star Luo City."
"Mubai... Mubai...is he dead?"
Zhu Zhuqing didn't seem to hear Davis' words, months of waiting, months of persevering, months of praying, but in exchange for cold nightmares, completely crushing Zhu Zhuqing's already precarious body, she His body was limp, he leaned against the wall, smiled desolately, and said:
"Without Mubai, then what's the point of my life, what's the point?"
Davis frowned, and immediately heard that something was wrong, and quickly ordered someone to take out the key to open the prison, and the whole person flew in at an extremely fast speed.
Fortunately, because Zhu Zhuqing hadn't eaten for a long time, her whole body seemed much duller. She just raised her jade arm and pointed her finger at her throat. Before she could start self-mutilation, her hand was grabbed by the quick-eyed Davis. .
"Stop it!"
Davis was afraid that Zhu Zhuqing would continue to do stupid things, so he ordered someone to take out a pair of handcuffs and put them on Zhu Zhuqing, so that she would not be able to commit the suicide act just now.
But this moment completely angered Zhu Zhuqing, a woman who didn't talk much before.
"Davis, let me go, let me die!",
Zhu Zhuqing struggled vigorously, not to mention that she is now a prisoner, her soul power is sealed, and because she doesn't have enough food and sleep, she doesn't have much strength, so she can't break free at all, she can only be like a helpless little beast , a pair of big eyes full of despair glared at Davis, and said angrily:
"It's you, it's all you, Davis, you killed your royal father and Mubai, if that's the case, then you should show the courage you had at the time and kill me too!"
Davis frowned, ignored Zhu Zhuqing's provocative method, directly picked up a rag, crumpled it up, stuffed it into Zhu Zhuqing's mouth, and blocked her follow-up words.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing twisting his body restlessly, Davis had a sneer of disdain, and said:
"The reason why I kept you at the beginning was just in case, but I didn't expect it to be really useful."
"Want to die? That's impossible, your life is very valuable now!"
After all, Davis waved his hands towards the soldiers behind him, without looking back:
"Bring me her!"
"yes!"
Two tall and three rough soldiers supported Zhu Zhuqing, one on the left and one on the right, and carried her out of the royal dungeon.
With a gloomy face, Davis walked out of Xingluo Palace, sat in the carriage used by Emperor Xingluo, surrounded by a crowd of imperial guards, and headed towards the city gate in a majestic manner.
The Star Luo Empire has been established for hundreds of years, and the rules are extremely strict. There are rules for the scale of travel. Each noble rank has corresponding requirements. For example, a baron must be accompanied by ten people when traveling. At the level of a prince, no more than a thousand people can travel.
The motorcade symbolizing Emperor Xingluo was extremely huge, with three thousand people in front and back, it was a sight to behold.
However, when the convoy was walking, the people on both sides of the road did not welcome him with cheers and applause, but under the intimidation and threats of the Imperial Guards, they knelt down tremblingly on the ground with their heads bowed. Buried on the ground, he didn't dare to look up, lest if he was not careful, he would be punished by the tyrant Davis.
When the convoy drove away, some people stood up tremblingly, but none of them dared to criticize Davis, because someone had done this before, and that night, that person even took The entire family was ordered by the tyrant Davis to ransack their homes and wipe them out, and their heads rolled to the ground.
