Chapter 296 Desire
Xiao Sizha's brows were tightly knitted together, like a twisted knot, and the deep wrinkles seemed to be the marks of anger carved by the years. There was a raging fire burning in his eyes, and that fire seemed to be able to burn everything to ashes.
His face flushed red, like a ripe apple, and like a burning flame. He felt that he had to drive Yu Zhu and the others away no matter what, otherwise it would be more dangerous for them to stay in Qi Tian Xiao Han! Xiao Sizhe's chest rose and fell violently, as if a volcano about to erupt was surging in his body.
He clenched his teeth so tightly that they clattered, and the force seemed to break his teeth. He clenched his hands into fists, and the veins on his fists bulged like twisted earthworms, trembling slightly, as if he could swing out at any time.
His body was shaking slightly with anger, and the stone slabs under his feet seemed to feel his rage.
"Parallel imports, come here!" Xiao Sizhe's voice was deep and powerful, exploding in the air like thunder. The voice was filled with strong anger and urgency, like an order that could not be questioned.
Shui Qinglian heard the voice, walked over quickly, and bent down in front of Xiao Sizhe. His movements were cautious, as if he was afraid of angering Xiao Sizhe who was angry at the moment. Xiao Sizhe stood on tiptoe, leaned close to Shui Qinglian's ear, and whispered something.
His expression was serious, his eyes were full of worry, the worry was like a heavy dark cloud, pressing people to breathe. His lips trembled slightly, as if he was trying to control his emotions.
Yu Zhu looked at their actions and curled her lips in disdain. "It's useless! The emperor's orders, no matter who disobeys, are punishable by death!"
Yu Zhu folded her hands in front of her chest, raised her chin, and her eyes were full of arrogance and pride. She twisted her body slightly, and the gorgeous clothes swayed gently with her movements, as if she was demonstrating to Xiao Sizhe. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a mocking smile.
Shui Qinglian glanced at Yu Zhu and the others, with a complex expression in his eyes, including helplessness, worry, and a hint of barely perceptible anger. He then left silently, his steps hurried, as if he was eager to escape from this place full of contradictions.
Seeing this, Yuan Wan teased, "Doctor Shui, don't waste your energy. No matter what, we can't disobey the emperor's order!"
Lu Wan had a mocking smile on her face, and her eyes revealed a hint of cunning. She fiddled with the silk handkerchief in her hand, and it was like a dancing butterfly between her slender fingers. She looked relaxed and contented, as if she didn't care about anything in front of her.
At this time, there was a commotion outside, and a large group of ministers came in. They looked hurried, with faces full of anxiety and uneasiness.
The hurried footsteps made a chaotic sound on the stone road, as if their hearts were as chaotic as the footsteps.
When Ling Qiao and Qian Yu saw these ministers, their faces turned ugly. They frowned, and dissatisfaction was revealed in their eyes.
Ling Qiao complained, "Father, what are you doing here?" Qian Yu also echoed, "That's right, this is not the place for you to come."
There was a hint of anger and helplessness in their tone, as if they were very annoyed by the fathers' arrival.
Yu Zhu and her fathers pointed at their daughters and angrily shouted, "You ignorant fools, are you tired of living?"
Their eyes were filled with worry and anger, and veins popped out on their foreheads. Those angry eyes seemed to penetrate the daughters' hearts and make them feel their fathers' disappointment.
"Father, don't worry about it. This is the emperor's order. No one can stop it!" Yu Zhu and the others showed a determined look on their faces, and there was a hint of madness in their eyes. They raised their chins slightly, as if challenging their fathers. Their bodies stood straight, as if declaring their determination.
Seeing their daughters' arrogant attitude, the fathers were full of doubts. They thought their daughters had received some good job. "What did the emperor promise you?" a father asked with a frown. There was a trace of vigilance in his eyes, as if he was worried that his daughters had fallen into some trap. His fingers trembled slightly, showing his inner uneasiness.
"The prince is going to be buried in the imperial mausoleum anyway. The emperor said he will not treat us unfairly and will make us Zhaoyi after we finish this task!"
Yu Zhu had a proud smile on her face, her eyes were full of longing. Her eyes were sparkling, as if she had seen her future glory.
"Shameless! Look at what happened to all those beauties in the palace!"
The fathers scolded their daughters bitterly. Their eyes were full of disappointment and anger. They couldn't understand why their daughters were so stupid. Their voices trembled, as if they were worried about their daughters' future.
But Yu Zhu and the others were overwhelmed by the temptation and refused to listen to the advice.
"They are them, and we are us!" Yu Zhu said stubbornly. There was a hint of stubbornness in her eyes, as if she had decided to go all the way. Her lips were tightly pursed, showing her determination.
"Okay! I've given you a chance. From now on, my lords, if anything happens to your daughter in our house, please forgive us! We are now in a difficult situation."
Xiao Sizhe's voice was cold and resolute, like a biting cold wind. His eyes revealed a hint of helplessness and fatigue, as if he had experienced countless vicissitudes of life.
Xiao Sizhe shook his head slightly, as if he had lost patience with Yu Zhu and the others. His body swayed slightly, as if he was under great pressure.
The adults thought the same thing. If they made any trouble, it would be a serious crime that would lead to the confiscation of property and extermination of the entire clan. They hurriedly dragged one person after another out.
"Father, go ahead! I don't want to go back!" Yu Zhu and the others struggled, anger and unwillingness on their faces. There was a hint of despair in their eyes, as if they were unwilling to give up this rare opportunity. Their hands and feet fluttered, trying to break free from their fathers' restraints.
However, the fathers had made up their minds. They ignored their daughters' resistance and forcibly dragged them out of Qi Tianxiaohan Mansion.
The atmosphere in the mansion finally eased a little, but Xiao Sizhe was still full of worries. He knew that this storm was far from over. The gloomy sky seemed to foreshadow the uncertainty of the future.
In the bustling capital, at the gate of Qitian Xiaohan Mansion, the atmosphere was so solemn that it seemed as if water could drip out. The sunlight shone on the vermilion gate, reflecting a dazzling light.
Shuangyue stood there expressionlessly, his figure as straight as a pine tree. He was dressed in black, with a long sword at his waist and a token in his hand, which shone with majestic light under the sunlight.
