Chapter 172: Rotting in Prison. [179]



Summary

Dong Yang sneaked into the imperial court prison to rescue Li Su, but she was shocked to find him living a comfortable life in his cell. The cell was immaculately clean, with a bed, books, and writing instruments. Li Su was lounging lazily, scolding the prison guards in a casual manner. Dong Yang was angry and amused by the scene, and her feelings were further complicated when Li Su revealed that he had obtained the comfortable living conditions by bribing the guards with wine. Dong Yang massaged Li Su's arm, which she had pinched earlier, and asked him about his reasons for clashing with the degree branch officer. Li Su's ambiguous answer couldn't fool Dong Yang, and she sensed that there was something more complicated behind the incident. She warned Li Su about the dangers of the royal court and offered to help him in the future. Li Su was touched by Dong Yang's words and grasped her hand, expressing his gratitude. Dong Yang brought food, snacks, and other necessities for Li Su and promised to take care of him during his imprisonment. However, Li Su warned her not to beg the emperor for his pardon, as it would put him in greater danger and might lead to his exile.
