Children of Loulan

Chapter 256 I want to marry you

The strange scene in front of them made the two of them stunned, their bodies trembling involuntarily. But after only a quarter of an hour of daze, the two of them quickly came to their senses and realized that they might have fallen into a trap. So, they turned around without hesitation and wanted to escape from this place.

However, it was too late. When they pushed open the door, they found that the outside was already illuminated by countless torches, and the whole room was surrounded and airtight.

The four were trapped at the door. They raised their knives and looked in horror at the crowd opposite them, whose number was several times theirs, with helplessness and fear in their eyes.

At this moment, a young and handsome man slowly walked out of the crowd. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle. He stared at one of the four people and said, "Captain Aguli, since you are here, don't resist. I will not do anything to you."

The person who came was none other than His Royal Highness Prince Baturcheng, and when he came, he directly called out Aguli's name. Aguli saw that he had been exposed and knew that he could not escape today, so he had to step forward, pull off the black scarf on his face, and said respectfully: "It turns out to be the prince! Your humble servant..."

"A mere captain of the imperial guards dares to call himself a subordinate! Captain Aguli, you are too arrogant!" Seeing that he was still calling himself a subordinate, Batur interrupted him mercilessly.

Agul was not angry at the sudden interruption. After all, the prince was telling the truth and he was not qualified to call himself a subordinate. So he immediately changed his words and said, "I made a mistake. But I want to know why the prince…"

"How do we know you will come to kill Aman?" Batur interrupted him again, "Aguli, you are wrong again in calling yourself a subordinate. You may have been a subordinate before, but now, you are a sinner."

Being interrupted again, Aguli just lowered his head without refutation. He knew that what Batur said made sense, and what he had done was ultimately difficult to conceal and could not withstand a detailed investigation.

Seeing him like this, Batur continued, "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself. Don't you know such a simple truth?" His tone was filled with helplessness and disappointment.

Aguli sighed and regretted in his heart that he was indeed too naive to think that he could deceive the prince. He answered sincerely: "Your Highness is right, I was naive and thought I could deceive you!" At this moment, he realized that he had lost everything and there was no possibility of recovery!

Batur was silent for a moment, then asked, "Before you are taken away, do you have anything else to say?" He stared at Aguli, trying to find the answer from his expression. Aguli hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head, indicating that he had nothing more to say.

Batur understood that he was unwilling to confess, then he chuckled, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "You are a smart man, you know that only the dead cannot speak, otherwise you would not come to kill Aman, so whether you have anything to say or not is entirely up to you!" His voice was calm and firm, which made Aguli feel a chill in his heart.

Because his meaning was very clear. If Aguli refused to speak, the people behind him would definitely kill him by any means; but if he confessed everything, he might still have a chance of survival. After all, since he had already spoken, the other party would be unlikely to risk exposing their spies just to kill him. Even if they wanted to kill him, they would choose a more appropriate time.

Agul naturally knew the interests involved, so he looked up at Batur and asked tentatively: "Will the prince personally interrogate me?"

Batur shook his head without hesitation and answered firmly: "No, because I know that you are just an insignificant little character with limited information, so I will not spend too much time and energy on you!"

Although his words were somewhat hurtful, Aguli knew in his heart that he was indeed just an insignificant chess piece. In the brief moment when he was dazed and absent-minded, Batur decisively waved his hand, signaling his men to escort the four of them away together.

The government office was busy arresting people, but the Xuanwang Mansion was filled with a peaceful atmosphere. At this time, Keremu and Hanguli had just finished packing and lay down to rest. Dar and Baier had also left the room. Baixi outside the door was still having a fierce psychological struggle. However, at this moment, Baier suddenly picked up a few bottles of medicine and hurried out.

Seeing this, Bai Xi hurried forward to stop her: "Hey, it's so late, where are you going with these medicines?"

Bayer answered without hesitation: "Of course I'll send it to Captain Mo. Besides him, who else is injured in the mansion now?"

Bai Xi said quickly: "But, it's already very late, maybe he has already gone to bed, you can send him tomorrow."

Bayer patiently explained: "At noon today, his medicine for injuries had already been used up, and he needs to change the medicine again in the evening, so it must be delivered now!"

Bai Xi tried to persuade him again: "But it's getting so late now. It's not a good idea to send him off in the middle of the night!"

Bayer looked at him with a puzzled look and said in a firm tone: "You are such a weird person. What does it have to do with you when I want to deliver the medicine? Get out of the way!" After that, she pushed Bai Xi hard and left on her own.

Looking at Bayer who left angrily, Bai Xi frowned, scratched his head, and said to himself in confusion: "A little girl delivering medicine to a man in the middle of the night, doesn't she think there is something wrong?"

Just then, Dahl came over and heard him talking. He couldn't help asking, "Hey, what are you mumbling about?"

Bai Xi showed an awkward smile and quickly explained, "Oh, I saw your sister delivering medicine to Captain Mo so late at night, and I felt it was a little inappropriate, so I tried to persuade her!"

Dale glared at him and said dissatisfiedly, "What's wrong with that? Captain Mo is the prince's distinguished guest, so he cannot be neglected. His medicine is all used up. Do we have to wait until tomorrow morning to send it over?"

Seeing that Dahl was a little unhappy, Bai Xi immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly changed his words: "Yes, yes, I said the wrong thing! I spoke out of turn!" As he spoke, he pretended to slap himself twice on the mouth to show that he admitted his mistake.

Seeing this, the displeasure on Dal's face eased a little: "Okay, stop talking nonsense here. It's getting late. The prince and princess have already gone to bed. You should go back and rest too!" After saying that, Dal turned around and prepared to leave.

When Bai Xi saw that she was leaving, he suddenly became anxious. He knew that if he didn't speak out now, he might never have another chance.

Thinking about how Baier was seduced by Captain Mo so quickly, he was afraid that one day she would fall into the arms of another. So he took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to confess to her: "Dar, I like you, I want to marry you!"

This sentence was like a flash of lightning that broke through the night sky, causing Dahl to stop in his tracks. She wondered if she had heard it wrongly, so she turned around, raised her eyebrows, and stared at Bai Xi, asking in confusion, "What? What did you say?"
