Marry a Duke

Chapter 180 Old Acquaintance

Fu Ran begged and pleaded with the person who brought her food and water to tell her how many days she had been detained.

It's been three days.

She had been locked up for three days and she felt like she stank from head to toe.

If she continues to be locked up in the darkness, she will go crazy even if she doesn't die.

No matter how big her heart is, she can't survive if she opens her eyes and sees darkness everywhere.

She became ruthless and begged to see Ruhui.

This time, it was the eldest princess who came.

Fu Ran was shocked to see the eldest princess condescending to her. She was afraid that the eldest princess's intentions towards her might not be as simple as wanting her dead.

"Princess, I am truly innocent." With her life in the hands of others, she could only go with the flow.

Only if you get out alive can you do something else.

She also wants to grow up with Wuyou.

The eldest princess sat on the armchair brought by the servant.

At this time, the inner room was bright.

But the smell was not very pleasant, and the eldest princess was holding a handkerchief in her hand.

"Fu Ran, Fu Ran, you have a long life. You have disobeyed me time and time again, but I have spared you every time. This time, you want to see Ru Hui. Do you want to persuade Ru Hui?"

"I dare not persuade the princess. I just want to find a way to survive. When I entered the Duke of Weiguo's mansion, I suffered a lot. Everything I did was forced by the Duke of Weiguo." Now that Wei Xuan is not here, she will throw all the dirty water on him first.

Let's wait until she escapes.

"Oh." The princess snorted. "You can do anything to survive. If you want to live, I will give you a chance. What value do you have?"

Fu Ran racked his brains.

"Replying to the Princess, Wei Xuan intended for Princess Lianxing to marry Prince Nadu for this marriage with Daliang. Princess Lianxing is indeed of royal blood, and is a perfect match for Prince Nadu."

"What royal bloodline? How can she be worthy of it?" The eldest princess did not regard Lian Xing as a royal princess at all. "She is just a lowly child born by a palace maid. She is lucky not to have died in Fengxian Temple."

Fu Ran presented it as he was told.

"This is not a secret. Anyone with a little insight can see what Wei Xuan did. He tried to stop me from letting Ruhui marry Nadu. Unfortunately, he didn't have the chance to stop it. The emperor has already issued an edict to grant the marriage. The wedding will be held in ten days." The eldest princess' eyes were full of pride.

"Ruhui insisted that you accompany her to Daliang. I can only follow her wishes and let you live longer."

"Don't worry, Princess. I will serve you well." Fu Ran was still lying on the ground.

She left herself in the dust.

Even if she came from another world, it would be of no use. She could do nothing.

If you have no power but only ideas, you will die faster.

In the hands of local authorities, she is still like an ant that can be crushed to death at any time.

She also became Princess Ruhui's punching bag.

"Just be obedient and do whatever Ruhui asks you to do, and you will feel better."

"I know, but I'm afraid I'll die here. I can't accompany the princess to Daliang. The journey to Daliang is long. The princess has never walked such a long way. If she doesn't want to go halfway and turns back, at least I'll be by her side to cheer her up."

Fu Ran continued to speak of his own worth.

The eldest princess didn't say anything.

But Fu Ran knew that her words touched the princess' sore spot.

No matter how obedient Princess Ruhui is, she is still a very selfish person. It is impossible for the eldest princess to accompany her to marry to Daliang. The journey is long and all kinds of things may happen on the way.

Nadu and the Daliang delegation are both there.

Once a conflict occurs on the road, it would be extremely disadvantageous for Ruhui to turn back halfway.

Fu Ran was taken out of the stone chamber.

She finally breathed a breath of fresh air, but with a cloth covering her eyes, she couldn't see where she was.

She knew that her situation was dire.

Even she herself could smell the stench on her body.

She could also hear the disdainful voices of the people around her.

But she doesn't care.

Living is the most important thing.

She was locked in a room and someone was watching her day and night, and was not afraid of her shouting.

Ruhui learned that the eldest princess had brought Fu Ran out of the dark room.

Very dissatisfied.

The eldest princess comforted her, saying that Fu Ran was her toy and she needed to ensure that the toy was playable until she got completely bored with it.

Only then did Ruhui stop making a fuss.

However, he rushed over and whipped Fu Ran.

The whip was so heavy that it almost broke her in half.

She developed a high fever that night, but the doctor didn't want to let her die, so he gave her medicine.

When I was still in a daze from the fever, someone came over.

"Fu Ran, Fu Ran, did you hear that?"

The voice was somewhat familiar.

Fu Ran raised his eyes in a daze, and the person in front of him looked familiar.

"Brother Cheng."

It’s Cheng Jiang.

She always thought that Cheng Jiang left the capital and returned to his hometown.

"Why are you still here?"

"I have not left Jingdi. I am still working under the eldest princess. This time, Alin is in charge of guarding you. He told me that you are imprisoned here."

This place is remote, so the princess employed some people from the princess's mansion.

Her secret guards have more important things to do.

Just Fu Ran, she didn't want to use her secret guards again. Sacrificing one would be a huge loss for her.

"Brother Cheng, please get out quickly. If someone sees you, your life will be in danger." Fu Ran didn't want to implicate others.

Cheng Jiang was very kind to her and helped her many times.

She couldn't bring trouble to her benefactor.

"Don't you want to escape? I'll help you escape." Cheng Jiang whispered. The injury on Fu Ran's back was quite serious. Even with the medicine, it was still burning with pain.

This medicine only keeps her from dying, not relieves her of pain.

The scar will also be a long one left on the back.

"No." Fu Ran refused.

"Brother Cheng, you can't take me away. I can't leave in this condition. Please help me send a message and ask someone to come and rescue me." She gasped several times before she could finish her sentence.

Cheng Jiang agreed immediately.

"Okay, I'll go and deliver the letter to Duke Wei right away."

"No, don't send the letter to the Duke of Wei's Mansion. Send the letter to Shen Yan of the Duke of Shen's Mansion. He will come to save me." She didn't know whether Wei Xuan would come to save her.

But she was sure that Shen Yan and Yuchi Mingxiu would come to rescue her.

"Duke Shen's Mansion?" Although Cheng Jiang was doubtful, she still agreed, "Can they really save you?" If not, she would probably only face death.

"If the princess whips me again tomorrow, I'm afraid I'll die here. Brother Cheng, I can't let you take risks. It would be less noticeable if you go to the Duke of Shen's mansion to deliver the letter."

There must be the eldest princess's spies outside the Duke of Weiguo's mansion.

She couldn't let Cheng Jiang take risks.

Cheng Jiang didn't say anything, hurried out and continued to guard outside the door.

It was only when the shift changed that he secretly went to the Duke of Shen's mansion to deliver the letter.

When Alin learned that he was going to the Duke Shen's Mansion, he was completely confused.

"Cheng Jiang, if this continues, Fu Ran will really die. The Duke of Shen's Mansion is in the hands of the Princess, and no one can be saved."
