Chapter 289 Hostage
When her consciousness returned, Ning Yuezhao felt that she was in a fast-moving carriage.

The continuous and dense pain was like steel needles piercing into the internal organs, the limbs could not lift a sliver of strength, the eyelids were as heavy as a mountain, and the throat was burning, and he couldn't make a sound even if he wanted to speak.

"You unscrupulous Spanish Portuguese, I knew that if you could break the century-old covenant with Daxing, you would also break the covenant with us!"

Xu Miaoyun's voice turned from embarrassment into anger.

"Miss Xu, the words just now were just expedient measures, please forgive me."

It was a male voice that sounded familiar, but Ning Yuezhao was in a daze right now, and couldn't remember it for a while.

"The reason why we tore up the covenant with Daxing is that you Han people broke your promise first. We sent the best horses and jade to the exchange market, but you cunning Han people gave us inferior grain, tea, cloth, and short catties. Less two, excuses and sophistry, these are common tricks used by you Han people. When you signed the alliance and opened the mutual market, you talked about the common prosperity of the two countries. Now we are still poor in Spain and Portugal, but you Han people are making a lot of money. Now you still accuse us of not wanting to be oppressed by you again, how can there be such a reason in the world!"

Ning Yuezhao immediately recognized this aggrieved female voice. It was the stall owner who tried to forcefully sell hats to them at the Kaiyang market, and was also the leader of the dancing girl assassins.

Xu Miaoyun said: "You can't blame us for this."

She stretched out her foot and kicked Ning Yuezhao, "It's all at the behest of this foolish king. The injustice has its head, and the debt has its owner. Don't find the wrong person."

Xu Miaoyun's kick was not light, Ning Yuezhao was unable to move, and could only bear it.She originally thought that taking Xu Miaoyun away from the imperial capital would not only end her entanglement with Jiang Nian, but also blackmail Xu Zhi, but who knew that the Xu family actually colluded with the enemy and treason, and colluded with Beiqi and Xipu to kidnap her.

These Western Portuguese assassins did not recognize Ning Yuezhao, so Xu Miaoyun led Ning Yuezhao to wear the tourmaline bracelet. The inn she chose was also the stronghold of these Western Portuguese.

It was careless for a while, but it is too late to regret now.

"If Emperor Beiqi didn't want her alive, I would have killed her right now!" The Spanish Portuguese woman still felt righteous indignation.

"As long as you keep her alive, there are some methods of torture that make life worse than death." Xu Miaoyun's voice was sinister.

"Good idea!" The Spanish Portuguese woman agreed with Xu Miaoyun's opinion.

Ning Yuezhao didn't know what kind of treatment she was about to receive, anyway, the means from Xu Miaoyun's side would definitely not have any good fruit for her.

"Princess Longa, Miss Xu, stop messing around." The man stopped them, "She has been poisoned, and now she can't stand your troubles."

It turns out that this woman who has been filled with righteous indignation is the princess of Spain. Is the country of Spain already so poor?The majestic princess of a country wants to set up a stall in the mutual market?

Ning Yuezhao thought about it again, Xipu's betrayal of the covenant might have been premeditated, the princess, as the representative of the royal family, personally went out and kidnapped herself, as a sincerity to surrender to Beiqi.

To think that she, the majestic Emperor of Daxing, has become a hostage of the enemy country, what a shame and humiliation!
For the sake of the whole country, what she should do now is to commit suicide, but she has already fallen into the hands of the enemy, not to mention that she is powerless to exterminate herself now, even if she dies, the corpse will inevitably be humiliated in the hands of these people.

Ning Yuezhao was caught in a dilemma, she didn't want the nation to be humiliated, but she didn't want to die either.She still owes Jiang Nian an answer, she is not willing to die in such a humiliating way.

At this time, the carriage stopped, in front of an unremarkable house in Kaiyang Town.

The man with a calm attitude carried Ning Yuezhao off the car and brought him into the house. Ning Yuezhao was placed on a dilapidated bed. The musty smell of the bedding strongly stimulated Ning Yuezhao's sense of smell.

The man pried open her mouth, fed her a pill, then turned to the others and said, "Today the Empress is going on tour in disguise, we made a lot of noise in the Bafang Restaurant, and now the defenders of Kaiyang Town have been alarmed." Yes, although we left Kaiyang Town before the martial law, Daxing may send troops to attack us at any time. Let’s have a good rest tonight and leave for Beiqi tomorrow. Only by handing over the empress to Emperor Beiqi as soon as possible can we Get the protection of Beiqi people."

Xipu is a small country that borders both Beiqi and Daxing. It has been relying on the celestial dynasty for more than a hundred years. Now they have abandoned the covenant, and Beiqi is obviously very pragmatic. Before receiving the spoils of Ning Yuezhao, They will not help Spain and Portugal.

"Master Wu Yao's words are wrong." Xu Miaoyun said calmly, "Han people love face-saving, especially these filthy royal families. The emperor has become a hostage. Out of the need to maintain dignity, they will definitely not pass on the news that the emperor has been kidnapped. If it is made public, how can it be used to raise troops?"

The calm man named Wu Yao shook his head, "Miss Xu doesn't know the Han people well enough, you have to maintain your dignity, but you can't let it out, they will definitely find other excuses to attack us."

Long Na said dissatisfiedly: "What did you eat for that woman just now? Could it be that your heart softened because of how pretty this woman is?"

Wu Yao said: "How is it possible? I just gave her some medicine to maintain her strength. We can reach Beiqi territory tomorrow, and it will take about five or six days to reach the imperial capital here. She was controlled by us with poison, but after all she She is a body of flesh and blood, how can she not eat or drink for so many days? He just gave her some medicine to maintain her strength."

"It's getting late, everyone should rest." Wu Yao himself was exhausted after a day of ups and downs.

Soon, everyone left the room.

Ning Yuezhao tried to condense her inner strength, but she felt that her dantian was empty and she couldn't raise any inner strength.

After another failed attempt, the sweat from Ning Yuezhao's body had soaked the clothes on his back.

At this time, the door was gently opened and then closed again.

Ning Yuezhao's perception of the outside world is particularly keen at the moment, with the rhythm of the other person's walking, she has already recognized the person who came - Xu Miaoyun!

Xu Miaoyun bent down, pinched Ning Yuezhao's teeth, and fed her half a pill.

Ning Yuezhao's eyelids moved, and she was able to open her eyes.

At this time, she couldn't tell whether she was blind or because it was night, but soon there was a glimmer of light in front of her eyes, Xu Miaoyun lit a candle and put it on the low table beside the couch.

She rubbed her hands and looked at Ning Yuezhao, and she was not surprised to see Ning Yuezhao opened her eyes, "Are you awake? Very good, some things are only interesting if you are awake."

Ning Yuezhao looked at Xu Miaoyun's hideous face due to her distorted mentality, with a calm expression.She knows Xu Miaoyun's character too well, she is definitely here to torture herself at this moment.She wanted to move, but found that her limbs were still unable to move, and she could not speak.

"I gave you some antidote, so that you can see and hear temporarily, thank me!" Xu Miaoyun lifted Ning Yuezhao's chin, and smiled very strangely.

Ning Yuezhao couldn't break free from her restraint, so she could only cast a cold look.

However, she obviously overestimated Xu Miaoyun's kindness. She stood up straight, dragged Ning Yuezhao off the bed, and mercilessly kicked Ning Yuezhao in the abdomen.

"You haven't eaten much these days, and your menstrual period has been postponed for half a month. I'm afraid you have his flesh and blood?"

Xu Miaoyun gritted her teeth and said, looking down at Ning Yuezhao with knife-like eyes, wishing to cut her into pieces.

"What's so good about you, a heartless woman?" She kicked and stomped Ning Yuezhao's abdomen several times in a row, "You are not worthy of him!"

This he refers to Jiang Nian.

 Wednesday seems to be a point of accumulation of fatigue. I don’t have the energy to write on this day of the week. I barely wrote so much today. I really don’t have the energy to write at the moment. Let’s read these first. If there are bugs, I will fix them tomorrow.

  This chapter may be a little more balanced for those who have complained about the emperor's dissatisfaction before. I have never felt that anyone must be right or wrong, and everyone must pay the price for their actions.
