Chapter 724: The Last Struggle (1)_1
The cells within the Ministry of Justice’s Prison typically held the Court’s major criminals and were usually sent to their designated locations after trial. Therefore, at the moment, the entire prison was not very crowded, and the cells near Mo Qingze’s were completely empty.
With Liyan and Tang Xin guarding outside the cell, Mo Yan confidently discussed plans for escape with her father, without fear of being overheard.
"... Father has a way to prove his innocence, and will be able to return home soon. Yanyan, take good care of the household, and just wait for father’s return with peace of mind," Mo Qingze said with a gentle expression, which alleviated some of the tension in the air.
Mo Yan, thinking these to be words of comfort from her father, quickly responded, "Father, you can rest assured that your daughter will take good care of home, and I will also find a way to rescue you. What you need to do is keep yourself safe. If someone wants to torture you, don’t try to withstand it... In any case, your daughter will certainly get you out!"
On hearing this, Mo Qingze’s heart was filled with mixed emotions. He didn’t want to reveal the entire strategy to his daughter, knowing her temperament, she wouldn’t disown him as her father even if she were upset with him putting himself in danger. However, the adversaries facing their family were too powerful, and if he didn’t seize this opportunity to bring them down, they would only come back with more vicious schemes.
Since they had already reached this point, there was no turning back. Telling his daughter the truth would only add to her anxieties. If King Heng or the Lin Family caught wind of it, their next move would be jeopardized.
