Chapter 1257 Qi Yuan Extra (End)

In the small iron cage, the prince's uniform on the little boy was dirty and messy, but he looked at the people in the distance without saying a word, his face expressionless and indifferent, not like a child.

In the main hall over there, a woman was being pressed to the ground. She kept begging the man at the head, her posture so humble that she seemed to be sinking into the dust.

But the man didn't let up at all.

The eunuch standing next to him came forward with a wine glass.

The woman shook her head in horror. She broke away from the people and ran towards the iron cage.

However, before she could reach her, she was pushed to the ground. The eunuch held the woman's chin and poured the liquid in the wine glass.

As the woman struggled, the wine soaked her clothes, making her miserable. She stretched out her hand towards the little boy, her eyes filled with despair.

The eunuchs who were holding him down released her, and the woman struggled to crawl to the side of the cage.

She clutched the cage with a pale face, blood continuously spilled from the corners of her mouth, and she struggled to squeeze out a few broken words, "Live...live."

Qi Yuan opened his eyes suddenly, his chest rose and fell rapidly twice, his eyes swept across the dark hall, and he reached out to touch the side. The warm body gradually relaxed his tense nerves.

He leaned over and held her in his arms, eagerly searching for her taste, her breath, and everything about her.

Shi Sheng was so dazed by the kiss that she asked vaguely, "What's wrong?"

She responded with a more intense kiss, and his movements were a bit brutal. Shi Sheng was completely sleepless and was forced to stay with him in bed until dawn.

Afterwards, Qi Yuan hugged her and fell asleep. Maybe he was tired and fell into a deep sleep.

He returned to that dream again, but now the feeling before was gone, and he felt a sense of peace of mind.

In the dream, the woman fell in front of him, her eyes widened, and she looked like she was dead.

He saw the woman being dragged away and placed in the middle in a strange posture. There were several people dressed as charlatans standing outside. They were surrounding the woman and chanting something.

After that, the eunuchs and maids left, and the man also left with them. He glanced here with a very cold look.

Then came the fire, the endless fire.

He curled up in the iron cage. The iron chains on his body became hot as the temperature increased. He heard the sound of his skin cracking.

He didn't remember how he left, he only remembered that when he woke up, he was already outside the palace, and the person who rescued him claimed to be his shadow guard.

His body was covered with bandages and he could barely walk.

During that time, he could only spend time in bed, and the people who took care of him didn't say much. They changed his dressing and gave him meals every day like a machine.

Never tell him about the outside situation.

It wasn't until he got better that someone taught him martial arts, reading, and even national affairs.

He stayed in that place for five years. After five years, someone from the palace came to take him back to the palace.

He was familiar with the palace, but when he entered the palace, he discovered that these people no longer called him the sixth prince, but the third prince.

The third prince, who had been praised as a genius since he was a child, was the most beloved by the emperor, and was interested in making him the heir apparent.

Perhaps because they knew he wouldn't say much, even in that situation, his shadow guard didn't tell him in advance.

It wasn't until he settled down in the palace that he learned that the third prince suffered from a serious illness a year ago and was sent away for treatment. However, the third prince died of his illness. Only then did he have the opportunity to replace the third prince and enter the palace.

But he understood that all this was arranged by them. His appearance was destroyed in the fire, and the appearance of the third prince was also destroyed due to illness.

There are not so many coincidences, they are all arranged.

"Why do you do this?" He took the initiative to ask the person who took care of him for the first time.

The man was stunned for a moment, then slowly knelt down, "Your Highness, you bear a blood feud, and your mission is to take revenge."

"Where is the third prince?"

"died."

"How did you die?"

"Died of illness." Shadow Guard answered as if he had been trained in advance.

He didn't believe it.

From then on, it was more like he fell into a huge conspiracy. There were gradually more people around him. He had to follow what they said and imitate the temperament and habits of the third prince.

Once he doesn't do something well, it will soon be reported to the shadow guard, and he will be brainwashed by all kinds of shadow guards at night.

Talk about how his mother and concubine were framed and how foreigners were killed.

His mother-in-law was framed by the third prince's mother-in-law. The emperor mistakenly believed in the Taoist slander that his mother-in-law was the reincarnation of a fox demon, and he would overthrow his dynasty.

What the emperor couldn't tolerate the most was this kind of thing happening, so that's why there was a fire. Even the foreigners of his mother and concubine were not spared, and their entire family was wiped out.

He was angry at first, but after hearing more, he was not so angry. These people seemed to deliberately provoke him and plant the seeds of hatred in his heart.

They want to make themselves a pawn, a pawn that can be manipulated by them.

There were people watching everywhere around him, so he had to be careful. He didn't know what forces were involved behind these people, but he believed that he would find out sooner or later.

Life in the palace was boring, but he was walking on thin ice all day long. He had to deal with those who were watching him, avoid their surveillance, and build his own power.

He doesn't want to be manipulated by them.

He endured it for many years, and finally the Xigan Incident happened.

People outside this matter don't know what happened, but he knows.

The people who manipulated him launched a coup that day, but they missed the Shan family.

The Shan family is loyal to the royal family. They will be loyal to whoever is the emperor and this will never change.

They also missed him. At that time, he had already used them to make connections and had his own power.

The death of his mother and concubine was all planned by this group of people, and he has found out clearly over the past few years.

The coup failed and everyone present was beheaded. The emperor thought that he had saved the country and pardoned him for replacing the third prince, but he did not restore his status as the sixth prince.

To the emperor, the sixth prince was dead and became a thing of the past.

He is still the third prince.

After the Xigan incident, he still couldn't let down his guard. He knew that the power of those people had not been completely eradicated. They were hiding and waiting for opportunities.

In the Xigan Incident, his martial arts skills were completely useless, and from now on he could only be an ordinary person, or even inferior to ordinary people. Perhaps without the suppression of martial arts, his inner violence began to show.

Everyone thought that the emperor might regret listening to the slander, so when he was critically ill, the next emperor fell on him.

However, he understood that no, what the emperor wanted to say at that time was to kill him, but he used the means to prevent him from saying what he said next.

He only had time to say his name, so the minister who was waiting for the ghostwriter placed his name on the imperial edict.

After ascending the throne, he no longer had to be someone else.

Those who looked on with cold eyes and did nothing to save them all deserve to die.

And those who hide in the dark deserve to die even more.

Qi Yuan hugged the person in his arms tightly, now everything has settled, he has the best thing in the world.

He spent all his misfortunes in this life in exchange for the luckiest girl for him.
