When he opened his eyes, he saw himself firmly tied to a bench. He tried to move but found that he could not untie the rope. The dagger and other things had all been taken away. She was now powerless.
Perhaps the person outside the door had predicted that she would wake up now, and it wasn't just Fang Dong Qing who entered the room, but also the eldest daughter of the Residence of the Duke of Guo, Qing Yao. She looked at Fang Dong Qing with a dauntless sneer.
There was a moment of guilt and regret on Fang Donqing's face. He looked at Fearless, who was tied up, and felt sad, but he couldn't do anything. He could only use his eyes to look at Fearless, but he didn't know how disgusting such a gaze was.
"The Crown Prince's personal maid?" Qing Yao walked to his side and lifted her chin with her fingers. Looking at his handsome face, she said with a sneer, "He's just a lowly maid suppressed by the crown prince, how could a middle-aged man like him fall for such a trash. However, he also knows that this kind of woman is only for fun, after all, how much better would a woman like this be compared to the girls in the rails?"
Fang Donqing's insulting words made his expression turn slightly ugly. He wanted to get angry, but he held himself back as he thought of something. He could only lower his head and look into the fearless eyes. "Lady Qing, you should interrogate him earlier!"
Qing Yao felt an indescribable happiness as she looked at the man who had always stood out among the people in the imperial court, acting humbly and humbly in front of her. She hated Prince Shang for killing her two brothers, and now even her father and mother had both died. So after knowing her grandfather's plan, she took the initiative to come over and question the Crown Prince's maid. Nobody in the capital knew how impressive the crown prince's two maids were. Even the ladies of aristocratic families couldn't compare to them. However, they were still in his hands. How could he not be able to touch the crown prince's two maids?
"Fearless, tell me about the weakness of the crown prince. Not only will I let you go, I'll also marry you to my husband. Tell me, what do you think?" Although Qing Yao really wanted to torture Fearless, she knew what her mission was. She wanted to get Fearless to tell her about the Crown Prince and defeat him in one fell swoop.
Fearless looked at the whimsical Qing Yao and smiled. He still had that kind of gentle smile, but it was also mixed with too much sarcasm. This smile reminded Qing Yao of the crown prince's disdain for her, as well as his indifference.
"Pa!" The whip instantly crushed the black robe on Dauntless's arm, revealing his reddened skin. Dreadless' eyebrows furrowed tightly, but he didn't make a sound. He didn't even cry out in pain.
Fang Donqing looked at Qing Yao constantly swinging the whip happily as if she was playing with it. The whip landed on Dauntless's body. His body was covered in whip marks, and blood even trickled out from the corner of his mouth due to the urgent need to clench his teeth. Fang Donqing took a few steps forward and walked up to Fearless. He saw that the usually meticulous and decisive woman was now covered with wounds, and her voice was choked with sobs. "Fearless, just say it, okay?" As long as you say it, they will let you go. Don't worry, I will take you away from Shang Country, and even the crown prince will not be able to find us. We will live happily together! "
Fearless walked up to Fang Donqing and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Fang Donqing's face was covered in blood, but he was smiling fearlessly as he said, "You even want me to betray the crown prince?" Even if I have to die, I will not betray the crown prince! "
He was very angry at the insolent Fang Dongqing, but he could only lower his voice when he saw Qing Yao was here. "Fearless, I have my troubles, can you believe me?" Even if you do, the crown prince might not get into trouble, but if you don't, they will kill you! "
Fearless no longer wanted to talk to this man. Was her heart aching? Her heart was truly in pain. She didn't think that the first time she adored a person would end up like this. She also didn't think that her eyes would be this blind.
"Heh, he really has guts!" When Qing Yao saw this fearlessness, she became even angrier. "Speak!" What was the crown prince's weakness? What secret did the Crown Prince have? "Where is the hidden location of the crown prince's Blood Shang Army?!"
However, no matter how hard Qing Yao swung her whip, she didn't utter a single word. Her mouth was as hard as steel. The more Qing Yao fought, the angrier she became. In the end, Fearless had already been knocked unconscious.
Looking at the now unconscious Fearless, Qing Yao threw down her whip and walked out of the room. "Master Erlang Zhong, you have to persuade her properly, or else …" The threat caused Fang Dong's face to fall. He nodded repeatedly as he entered the room to watch the unconscious Fearless.
Fang Dong Qing took out his handkerchief and wiped away some of the blood from the wounds of the unconscious Fearless. He watched as Fearless' raised lips poured another cup of water and slowly drank it. After taking care of Fearless, Fearless, he woke up.
The moment Dreadless woke up, he felt a burning pain in his body. He looked at Fang Donqing, who was wiping himself with a handkerchief, and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Stay away from me!" Such a touch made her feel disgusted, made her want to stab herself.
Fang Donqing took back his handkerchief and heard the guards outside all walk away. He sat down next to Fearless and explained, "I'm sorry, Dauntless. I'm sorry, but I have no other choice. They captured my parents. If I don't do this, they'll kill them!"
The fearless eyes flickered. She also thought it was strange that Fang Donqing, who was clean and honest, would end up being a pawn of the Duke of Qing. Now that she heard Fang Donqing's words, she finally understood. A man like Fang Donqing was a very old-fashioned man. He had his own filial piety and pedantry, and he couldn't allow his parents to be killed. That was why he was forced to do this.
"I truly like you. I believe that you also like me! Fearless, please tell them what you want, okay? You are just a servant of the crown prince, not a guard. I will bring you away in the future. Fang Donqing said bitterly. He truly liked this girl, and he had thought of marrying her for his entire life. He wanted to treat her well and not let her be ordered around by the crown prince like a man. If it weren't for the fact that his parents had been captured, and that the Crown Prince was fearless, Fang Donqing would have been tortured. Fang Donqing thought of the fact that Dauntless was loyal to the Crown Prince, and he started to panic. Could it be that the Crown Prince was truly fearless …?
"You want me to betray the crown prince? Fang Donqing, I've really misjudged you! Only now did she think that this man was no different from millions of other men in the world. She looked down on women because they had their own abilities, and once they had power, their appetite would grow. Even if he said he liked her, this liking was only so-so.
The fearless gaze in Fang Donqing's eyes caused him to step back a few paces. It was as if the darkness in his heart had been seen by the girl he liked. Just at this moment, Qing Yao entered the room with something like a pair of tweezers. She looked at Fang Donqing with disdain and said, "It seems that Lord Husband didn't make her speak. Indeed, this woman must have loved the crown prince!"
Qing Yao's words caused Fang Donqing to be unable to explain himself. Everyone knew what the official's servant girl represented. Fang Donqing felt that Dauntless might really be the Crown Prince's concubine.
"Still not telling?" Qing Yao's smile became even more joyous as she looked at Dauntless's miserable appearance. She no longer looked like a lady from a noble family. Now, Qing Yao was like a lunatic after losing her brother's parents.
As expected, Qing Yao didn't reply. She held the tweezers close to Dauntless's fingernails and pulled them out with a smile. With a scream of pain, her bloody fingernails were pulled out.
Fang Donqing's heart ached, and he couldn't bear to leave the room.
Even though Dauntless was tied up, she could not stop herself from shivering due to the pain from his nails. The entire chair started to shake, but even so, Dauntless did not say a single word.
Sweat drenched her fearless eyes. She couldn't clearly see what Qing Yao looked like, but her mouth didn't say anything from start to finish. Even though she was in so much pain that she wanted to die, the Crown Prince was still fearless and clear-headed. She was a subordinate of the crown prince. She couldn't be weak like this, and she definitely couldn't lose face for the crown prince. She knew how much damage the death of the wooden garden had done to the crown prince. She knew that the crown prince treated the people around him well, so she couldn't make him sad because of her.
"Still not willing to tell?" Qing Yao was a bit tired, but she was so tormented by him that she didn't even want to open her mouth or say anything.
At this time, a few guards entered the room from outside. "Eldest Miss, the Duke has something to instruct you!"
Fearless was so dizzy that he couldn't hear what they were saying. However, she knew that this matter definitely had something to do with the crown prince. She wanted to do something but she couldn't. She hated herself for being so powerless …
Fearless had yet to return, so he felt that there was something fishy about this matter. After all, no matter how fearless and Fang Donqing were, they would not easily hand him over, so after a thorough investigation, they discovered that not only had Fearless disappeared, but even Dong Fang Qing had disappeared as well.
When he reported the matter to the crown prince, Shang Wuxin and Nangong Qian were in the study room. Upon hearing the news, the guards of the crown prince's residence instantly took action.
