Chapter 285 - 285 “What I Want to Tell You Is That I Broke One of His Arms.”

285 “What I Want to Tell You Is That I Broke One of His Arms.”

When the fourth prince heard the sound of the door being unlocked, he trembled. “Don’t, don’t hit me!”

He had really been beaten up so much recently that he was traumatized now.

Even though he was beaten up three times a day, he still hadn’t gotten used to getting beaten up yet!

“I heard that you’re related to Gao Xuwei, the general who stabilizes the north?” Lu Ze said slowly in a flat voice, completely different from when he spoke previously. Coupled with the mask he was wearing now, it was almost impossible for the fourth prince to recognize him.

At this moment, the fourth prince, who was already scared out of his wits, couldn’t care less about figuring out Lu Ze’s identity. Begging for mercy was his top priority.

Lu Ze didn’t care if he was willing to answer. He slowly walked to the fourth prince’s side and raised his leg to kick his shoulder heavily. There was a crisp cracking sound, followed by the fourth prince’s miserable scream, but he only howled once before his scream stopped.

Lu Ze moved his foot away from the fourth prince’s neck and turned to instruct Pei Qian, who was still stunned, “Get someone to move him outside and prepare clothes for him that won’t freeze to death, as well as some dry food!

“The rest of you, evacuate quickly.”

“This place is a little far from Cloud Mountain City. With the fourth prince’s ability, it’s a little difficult for him to walk back to Cloud Mountain City alone, right?”

After the two of them left the prison one after another, Pei Qian crossed his arms and looked at Lu Ze as he asked disapprovingly, “What if he dies?”

“There are many villas inside and outside the north mountain. He’s not that stupid!”

Lu Ze looked in the direction of the dungeon in disdain. “Let’s go back and wait for news.”

Upon hearing Lu Ze’s arrangements, Pei Qian didn’t say anything else. He turned around and asked Qian He to instruct him to deal with it. After everything was done, he would burn this place down…

When Lu Ze returned home, it was already midnight.

Seeing him come in covered in snow, Lin Suisui quickly put down the book in her hand and was about to go forward, but Lu Ze raised his hand and stopped her. “Don’t come over. I’m cold.”

“Bai Guo, bring over the ginger soup that has just been brewed.” Seeing Lu Ze walk to the charcoal basin, Lin Suisui turned around and instructed Bai Guo, who had followed her in from outside the door.

Lu Ze took off his cloak and stayed near the charcoal basin for a while before allowing Lin Suisui to come forward and take the handkerchief from Yin Qiao to wipe his hair that was soaked in snow.

After drinking the ginger soup, Lu Ze finally reached out to pull Lin Suisui over to sit beside him. “I just instructed the fourth prince to be released. In about a day or two, he will be able to return to Cloud Mountain City safely.”

“Oh.” Lin Suisui didn’t want to answer. “This has nothing to do with me, so I don’t need to know.”

“What I want to tell you is that I broke one of his arms.” Lu Ze hugged Lin Suisui as he rested on the low couch by the window. He didn’t seem to care how Lin Suisui would respond. He just wanted to tell her this.

“Do you know that although the fourth prince has four mistresses outside? One of them even gave birth to two children for him!”

Even though Lu Ze’s voice was extremely soft, it couldn’t hide the disdain in his eyes. “When I think of how he lied to you in the past, I can’t help but feel a little disgusted!

Originally, I wanted to break his leg as well.

However, if we break his leg now, he won’t be able to leave the village alive! Therefore, I can only settle for the next best thing. I’ll settle the account later.”

“Actually, I really don’t remember him.” Lin Suisui raised her head slightly to look at Lu Ze. After thinking for a moment, she decided to reveal everything. Otherwise, the person in front of her would be sarcastic to her every day.

“I’m not lying to you. Besides, so what if I still remember the past? I’m already married to you!

He’s engaged to my sister now.

People have to look forward. We can’t dwell on the past forever!”

Lin Suisui wasn’t lying. She really felt that the fourth prince wasn’t that important. Although she didn’t have the memory of the original owner of this body, for some reason, she was certain of this.

“These are the confessions provided by the fourth prince’s advisors.” Although Lin Suisui had already said this, Lu Ze still didn’t ease up. He placed the confession he had interrogated in front of Lin Suisui from his sleeve and said, “These are the information I obtained from the fourth prince’s advisors.

The confession is written very clearly.”

“I don’t think you should show this to me. Instead, you should think of a way to deliver it to the Third Prince or my father and sister.

After all, she will be the fourth prince’s wife in the future. She is the person who will spend the rest of her life with him!”

Lin Suisui didn’t take the stack of hot potatoes Lu Ze handed her. Instead, she cleverly chose to divert the trouble. “Since she’s going to manage the fourth prince’s affairs in the future, she has to know about these children in advance.”

“Yes.” Lu Ze’s frown finally relaxed. Then, he threw the stack of confessions in his hand onto the short table at the side and reached out to pull Lin Suisui into his arms tighter. “I’m a little tired. Lie down with me for a while!”

… .

The news from the fourth prince was sent to Lu Ze the next afternoon.

However, to Pei Qian and Lu Ze’s surprise, the person who sent the letter was actually a guard from Duke Huai Yang’s ministry.

“What a coincidence!

After those things happened previously, Duke Huai Yang’s mother was frightened out of her wits. Later on, Princess Ning Fu wanted Zhou Hengchang to help, but Zhou Hengchang saw through her scheme.

After this series of events, they didn’t dare to stay in the city anymore. Instead, they chose to stay in the manor in the north mountain to avoid trouble.

“Last night, when Princess Ning Fu returned from admiring the flowers, she happened to encounter the fourth prince, who had fainted in the snow, so he was saved! Later on, when the fourth prince woke up, he told her his identity without any hesitation. That’s why the news reached me today.”

Pei Qian explained the cause and effect of the matter to Lu Ze very straightforwardly. Then, he sighed helplessly as he continued, “I really didn’t expect that the person who found him in the end would be from Duke Huai Yang’s ministry.”

“Remember to tell Zhou Hengchang about this.” Lu Ze continued to translate the medical book. Without looking back, he instructed Pei Qian, “At least let him know.”
