The president's wife with one child and five treasures is the favorite of the group

On the first floor of the black tower, the door is open.

After entering, Quan Zhengrong also saw the general outline clearly.

White candles are lit all around, and a stone bed is placed in the middle.

On the stone bed, there was a mutilated corpse emitting a stench.

Seeing this, Quan Zhengrong was slightly taken aback.

At the same time, I am also curious about what this place is and why the queen called him here.

He looked around, trying to find the queen.

But he didn't see her after scanning the entire room, and the soldier who brought him here just now disappeared.

He felt bad and was about to leave.

Just then, boom, boom, boom came from ahead.

He spoke in a voice and looked towards the stairs.

I saw a hunchbacked old man slowly walking down from the second floor with a cane in hand.

Because of his old age, the old man had thinning hair, sunken eyes, and dark purple lips that seemed to be painted with lipstick.

In this black tower, it is as terrifying as a ghost threatening to kill.

Seeing her, Quan Zhengrong instantly understood something.

"It wasn't the queen who asked me to come, it was you?"

The old man didn't answer, and walked forward step by step with a cane.

Finally, she walked to the wooden chair in front of the jade bed and sat down.

Then he looked up at Quan Zhengrong.

"who are you?"

She opened her dry and wrinkled lips, and her eyes had an unfriendly cold light.

Quan Zhengrong was not afraid, and asked instead: "Who are you? I want to see the queen."

The old man didn't answer her question, and continued to ask with a cold face: "What's your relationship with her?"

"Nothing to do with you."

Quan Zhengrong stood in this strange and empty environment. Although he didn't know where it was, but looking at the corpse on the jade bed and this old man who spoke strangely, he could feel a little bit of danger.

After speaking, he turned and walked out, trying to leave.

But as soon as he reached the door, two dead men in black robes and masks suddenly jumped down from above and blocked his way.

At the same time, the old man's gloomy voice came from behind him.

"When you come to my site, it doesn't mean you can leave just by walking."

Quan Zhengrong frowned as he looked at the strangely dressed dead soldier in front of him.

He turned his head and looked at the old man again.

"What do you want?"

The old man's gaze was on the corpse on the jade bed.

"Tell me, what's your relationship with Ji Yao?"

Hearing the word "Ji Yao", Quan Zhengrong was really surprised.

Wan Qing's current name is Ji Yao, which is the queen's name.

It is a capital offense for ordinary people to call out the name of the queen at will.

This old man called him so casually.

From the looks of it, she should have gotten used to it.

He looked at the old man carefully, probably guessing her age in his heart.

After thinking about it, he turned pale with shock.

"You, you are..."

The old man raised his eyes sharply.

"You know who I am?"

Quan Zhengrong withdrew his surprised eyes and calmed down.

"I guessed it, but I didn't expect that you are still alive!"

The old man glanced at him, then closed his eyes again.

"What's the relationship with Ji Yao, what do you want her for?"

"It's just an old friend, I'm looking for her... to catch up on the old days."

"Reminiscing?"

The old man snorted coldly.

"What is your identity, what is her identity, and what qualifications do you have to reminisce about the past with her?

I advise you to tell the truth, I'm not that patient! "

Quan Zhengrong looked at her terrifying eyes and knew that nothing could be hidden from her.

After pondering, he said, "I'm here to ask her about Jing Chen."

The old man then looked him up and down, narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you her son's... father?"

"No, I am his adoptive father."

"Father, so you have a good relationship?"

"It used to be good, but now there is some misunderstanding."

A strange smile suddenly appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth.

"It seems that the 'friendship' between you and Ji Yao was very deep, otherwise, how could you recognize her son as a foster son?"

The old man looked at him, seeming to be thinking about something in his heart.

After Quan Zhengrong was silent, he was unwilling to answer these meaningless questions.

"Since the Queen does not want to see me, I shall take my leave."

But as soon as he turned around, two dead men still blocked his way.

He could only look at the old man and asked, "What exactly do you want?"

The old man stood up and said with a sly smile: "You want to see Ji Yao, it's a good idea."

As she spoke, she reached out and touched a rope next to the wooden chair, and yanked it down fiercely.

This rope connects the organs in the tower.

The mechanism was activated, and the wall above Quan Zhengrong's head suddenly opened.

A bound woman fell straight down, hanging in the air.

Quan Zhengrong opened his eyes wide.

"Queen!"

The queen was bound in the air, unconscious.

Quan Zhengrong's eyes showed anxiety, but he was helpless because he couldn't touch her at all.

He could only look at the old man, and asked loudly, "What are you doing! She is the queen of country E!"

The old man looked at him anxiously.

"Tsk, you seem to care about her very much. Aren't you just ordinary friends?"

Quan Zhengrong didn't answer these, and said sharply: "This has nothing to do with you, you put her down quickly!"

The old man pulled the mechanism casually, and the queen's body was brought up again.

The wall above Quan Zhengrong also closed, and nothing could be seen.

"I did this to her because she was disobedient. Since you want to save her, why not finish the unfinished tasks for her!"

What he said was cryptic, but Quan Zhengrong could understand it.

She was using the queen to blackmail him and make him work for her.

He didn't agree immediately, but he also asked tentatively, "What mission?"

Seeing that he didn't refuse, the old man smiled even more.

"This task is very simple for you, come here and let me tell you."

Quan Zhengrong approached her suspiciously, and lowered his head slightly.

The old man moved closer to his ear, his dry lips parted and closed.

After hearing what she said, Quan Zhengrong was shocked.

"They're yours..."

"So what, my Ji family doesn't need any males! Just do as I say, Ji Yao's safety depends on you, hahaha!"

After the old man looked up to the sky and laughed, he walked up to the second floor step by step with a cane.

With her departure, the dead man behind Quan Zhengrong also disappeared at some point.

He looked at the empty and strange black tower, and suddenly felt a chill coming from his back.

Recalling the old man's words, he looked at the corpse on the jade bed in front of him, and immediately paused.

Then, he walked out of the black tower step by step.

The sky is still dark, it should be early morning at this time.

He lifted his foot and walked forward with difficulty.

After leaving the castle, he returned to Jiangcheng overnight.

...

noon the next day.

Country Z, Jiangcheng.

Quan Zhengrong appeared at the gate of Yujing Bieyuan.

The security personnel in Bieyuan knew that he was Mu Jingchen's adoptive father, so he could pass through Yujing Bieyuan without hindrance.

After entering the other garden, he went straight to the hall.

In the hall, only Mr. Mu was alone.

The old man is wearing reading glasses and is reading today's latest newspaper.
