Taiyimen, in the main hall, Emperor Xuan and Xiao Siteng were sitting side by side.
Xuan Tianzi frowned slightly, looking a little anxious. "Brother Xiao, it's been three days, why hasn't the news come back?"
Xiao Siteng was also a little surprised, "Could something happen?"
Emperor Xuan was already anxious, and when he heard what Xiao Siteng said, he became even more anxious, "No! We can't wait like this anymore. Brother Xiao, the three-day period you gave to the Tuva tribe has also expired. Why don't you just let me take care of you?" People, go there in person. First, let’s see what’s going on, and second, I can prepare myself and move the headquarters here soon.”[
When Xiao Siteng heard what Emperor Xuan said, he felt a little hesitant in his heart. Three days ago, he read the letter from Shen Daojun and said the three-day limit out of anger. Now three days have passed. If the Tuva people refuse to move away, is it possible that hundreds of thousands of Tuva people will be killed? Xiao Siteng is not a cold-blooded animal, and he also has some feelings for the Tuva people.
Emperor Xuan's eyes were venomous and he was very good at guessing people's hearts. When he saw Xiao Siteng's expression, he guessed it. He frowned and said, "Brother Xiao, don't you regret it? Not to mention that a gentleman promises a thousand pieces of gold, but this is related to the Taiyi Sect." If your life and death are at stake, you cannot change your order day and night or hesitate."
Xiao Siteng smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Xuan, don't blame me for going back on my word. It's really because I can't bear to be so ruthless. That's hundreds of thousands of lives. How can you just kill them?"
Although Emperor Xuan didn't show anything on his face, he was secretly resentful in his heart. Could it be that all his good intentions had to be discarded
Just when Emperor Xuan was thinking about a solution, a maid hurried in and said to Xiao Siteng, "The master is not good. Miss, she insists on moving to the dungeon to take care of Mu Zheng and his wife. No matter how we try to persuade him, I can’t help it.”
"What? Is there such a thing?" Xiao Si Teng stood up, his face full of anger.
The maid nodded quickly and said, "The young lady also said that if you don't let them go, she will live in the dungeon and never leave!"
"This is unreasonable!" Xiao Siteng was furious, turned around and walked towards the dungeon. Xuan Tianzi thought for a moment and followed quickly.
The dungeon of Taiyimen is tens of meters deep underground. There is no sunlight all year round. It is dark and damp. It is really not a place for people to stay. Mu Zheng and his wife have been detained here for nearly a month.
Mu Zheng has a seventh-level cultivation, and his body is strong, so he can still withstand it, but Mrs. Mu, who is weak and not familiar with cultivation, cannot bear it. After a month, his body was eroded by the moisture and was already very weak. If Mu Zheng hadn't spared no effort to relax his muscles and activate his blood circulation, he might have been in danger of his life.
Although the cruel dungeon life tortured Mrs. Mu like a candle in the wind, she still couldn't conceal her outstanding grace. Through the dim candlelight, one could vaguely see a face that was pale and tired, but still extremely beautiful.
"Ruse, where did you come from? You... get out quickly." Mrs. Mu leaned on the bed and said to Xiao Ruse with some difficulty.
Xiao Ruse didn't seem to hear it. He wet the towel and wiped Mrs. Mu's face carefully. Xiao Ruse's movements were light and gentle, and extremely careful. Mu Zheng, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but sigh several times in succession. Although he was completely dissatisfied with Xiao Siteng, he really had nothing to say to Xiao Ruse. Especially this girl, at this time, regardless of Xiao Siteng's anger, let alone the cruel environment of the dungeon, moved in with them and took care of them, it is enough to show that this girl has a heart as precious as a diamond.
"Ruse, be obedient and leave here quickly. You girls are weak and you will get sick if you stay here for a long time." Mu Zheng said lovingly.
"No!" Xiao Ruse's attitude was very determined, "Although I haven't married Tiangang yet, you are my parents in my heart. I am incompetent and have no way to save you from here, so I can only stay here. I'll stay with you. Besides, my mother is so weak and needs someone to take care of her, so I can't leave."
Mu Zheng said with emotion, "Ruse, with your words, we are satisfied. Having a daughter-in-law like you in this life is not only lucky for Tiangang, but also a blessing for us as a couple. Let's go quickly, I'm here." We are taking care of you here, your mother will be fine."
"Ruse, what are you doing here?" As soon as Mu Zheng finished speaking, Xiao Siteng walked over angrily.
Xiao Siteng was so powerful and his voice was so loud that it stirred up an echo in the dungeon, but Xiao Ruse ignored it at all and didn't even look at Xiao Siteng. This undoubtedly made Xiao Siteng even more annoyed.
"Ruse, dad is talking to you, didn't you hear?" Xiao Siteng scolded him sharply again. [
"Dad, do you want some water? Let me get you a glass of water." This time, Xiao Ruse still ignored Xiao Siteng, but looked at Mu Zheng and said in a clear voice.
Mu Zheng knew that Xiao Ruse was deliberately angry with Xiao Siteng, and he also had a lot of dissatisfaction with Xiao Siteng in his heart. How could he not cooperate? He laughed a few times and said, "Okay, I happen to be thirsty, so I'll trouble my good girl!"
"Giggle... No trouble, no trouble at all!" A burst of silver bell-like laughter burst out from Xiao Ruse's mouth, ignoring Xiao Siteng's eyes that could almost spit out fire, and happily poured water for Mu Zheng.
Seeing Emperor Xuan in the blink of an eye, Xiao Ruse stopped, looked at him and said, "Are you Emperor Xuan? Looking at your wretched appearance, you are not a good person compared to your adopted son Xuan Kui. Go back and tell him, Don't be a toad who wants to eat swan meat, let him give up as soon as possible. Even if I marry a pig, I will not marry him!"
Xiao Ruse, who was usually gentle and gentle, could actually say such cruel words. Xiao Siteng was stunned. Xuan Tianzi's face turned into the color of pig liver. Only Mu Zheng couldn't help but laugh loudly.
"Dad, drink!" Xiao Ruse handed the tea cup to Mu Zheng with both hands, acting like a well-behaved person. This call of "dad" was also very natural and sweet, making Xiao Siteng very jealous. Thinking back carefully, it seemed that Xiao Ruse hadn't called him like this for a long time.
"Okay, okay!" Mu Zheng breathed out the bad breath accumulated in his chest today, so he was very relieved.
"I'll let you drink it!" Xiao Siteng was furious and stretched out his hand. The teacup that Mu Zheng had just taken and had not yet reached his lips shattered in an instant.
Mu Zheng's expression darkened, and he was about to get angry, but Xiao Ruse said with a smile, "Dad, it doesn't matter, I'll pour it for you! Anyway, this teacup is not ours. If someone wants to smash it, let him smash it."
When Mu Zheng heard this, his anger immediately disappeared, and he made a very loving expression and said, "It's just that this is too much trouble for my good daughter, and I don't want to let it go."
