Chapter 540 - Bai Chang Feng’s Birthday (5)
Chapter 540 “Bai Chang Feng’s Birthday (5)”
More importantly, Nangong Yuan (king) knows that if he doesn’t deal with Nangong Yi then it would likely offend Bai Yan. As such, he could only personally sentence his own son to death for the sake of himself.
Fortunately there are still two days from the date of the execution. Nangong Yi, he can suffer for the remainder of his time in this life. That’s what Lan Shaoling thought, wanting to get some payback.
……
The dungeon’s a cold and damp place, by no means was it a comfortable place, evident by the countless flies hovering around the former crown prince’s body that’s currently huddling to one corner.
Nangong Yi originally couldn’t stand such drastic changes to his lifestyle, but anything would become the norm after so long in here….
“Did any of you hear about the news? All of those third- and second-rate powers out there are coming to give gifts to the Lan House in droves. They say each of the boxes are holding priceless treasures!”
The sound had come from the outside where the guards normally sat. But due to the angle of the cell, the prince didn’t know the exact location.
“Che, who doesn’t know this yet? Pretty much everyone in the kingdom and the whole land is booming with this news. Lord Cang’s wife is the granddaughter of the Lord of the Medicine Sect and that the lady who left the girl behind to Miss Lan Yue is in fact the young miss of that power! Now as gratitude for the care they gave Miss Bai Yan, the Medicine Sect is now openly shielding the Lan House with their influence.”
“Not only that… because of the Dowager and Prince Zhun’s good relationship with the lady, they’re now invited to the Medicine Sect’s upcoming birthday celebration for the Lord. It can be said that our Liu Huo Kingdom is now on a whole different level compared to our neighbors.”
“AHHHH!!!”
Just as the two prison guards were at the height of their discussion, that’s when a painful and heart wrenching howl broke in.
“What is doing now by screaming like that?” One of the guards asks, his brow furrowed into a knot.
“Probably fear I’m guessing. He only has two days before his execution. Forget about him, let’s continue where we left off….”
……
Back over in the prison cell, Nangong Yi was currently holding his head in a painful manner as tears of remorse trickled down his side.
Bai Yan is the granddaughter of the Medicine Sect…
The words from the prison guards were like haunting echoes, constantly ringing inside his ear until he nearly broke his teeth by gnashing down in agony.
Bai Yan was supposed to my wife! The glory of the Lan House is supposed to be mine! It was me, it was me who threw all of those away! This is all my own doing….
“HaHaHa!”
The crying didn’t stop; however, it did eventually evolve into a hair-raising laugh that creeped the hell out of everyone else.
“Bai Yan, if life could be rewind… I will never give up on you again!”
In that split second, everything in his life seems replay itself like a drama show before his very eyes. And it was also at this point where he realizes how much he missed, how much he lost, and how much he pushed away.
This erratic behavior naturally drew in the attention of the prison guards who’s still discussing the topic. Shaking their head upon coming to check, This once glorious prince really have gone crazy now….
“What do we do now?” The shorter guard turns to his companion and asks.
“What can we do? Let’s go and report this to the young master from the Lan House. If we can somehow please that family then we won’t have to worry about being picked on by others again!”
That said, the two men then happily strolled out of the dungeon, leaving behind nothing but the erratic laughter of the former crown prince and his remorseful self.
