Chapter 520 The demon concubine who brings disaster to the country vs. the bandit emperor 131

Ji Yunhuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he whispered in Lin Yuan's ear, "So all the money Tu Guangjun collected from the people was given to Aunt Xiao?"

"This concubine Xiao was the first woman that Tu Guangjun took into his house after he arrived in Lingnan. She was the daughter of a local gentry and gave birth to a son and a daughter. Madam Tu was most wary of her."

The two servants had moved all the flowers, but the door of the greenhouse was not closed. Soon, a woman with a pretty face entered the greenhouse.

The woman was not stunningly beautiful, but she had a gentle and quiet temperament. For a woman like this to come from Lingnan, her family must have considerable assets, and they definitely did not raise their daughter as a concubine.

The Xiao family wanted to curry favor with the newly appointed prefect, and Tu Guangjun wanted to consolidate his power in Lingnan. The two sides hit it off and Tu Guangjun gave the girl to him as a concubine, thus determining her life.

Aunt Xiao entered the flower room and stroked the delicate petals one by one, as if she loved these flowers very much.

"Everyone go out, don't disturb my interest."

The nanny and the maids came out immediately, knowing that Aunt Xiao liked to stay in the greenhouse the most and didn't like to be disturbed by others.

When Aunt Xiao was the only one left in the yard, the joy on her face disappeared, replaced by deep sadness, "It's blooming so beautifully, but it's a pity that it's kept in this cage. No matter how carefully I take care of it, it will wither in a few days."

"I said I like spring flowers, so you gave me a garden of flowers, but I like the spring flowers that bloom all over the mountains, not the flowers grown in the house."

"It's so boring. You coaxed me into falling in love, and I thought I had met a good man, but you hid me in this shameful place. There is only one wife of the prefect in Lingnan, and I will always be a concubine who cannot be seen in public! Tu Guangjun... Guangjun... you are such a piece of shit!"

Tears flowed from Aunt Xiao's eyes. She paced to a corner of the greenhouse, squatted down, moved a floor tile, took the key and walked deeper into the greenhouse.

Walk through the layers of flowers and open the mechanism to reveal a different world inside.

Lin Yuan held Ji Yunhuan and landed lightly.

"There is a large storehouse in Aunt Xiao's courtyard. There are many valuable things, especially women's head ornaments, gold and jade jewelry. But I think Tu Guangjun's property must be more than that."

"Later, I found this greenhouse. Last night, someone was moving things in there in a sneaky way. There must be some secret hidden in there. I wanted to sneak in and check it out today, but now I have saved myself a lot of trouble."

As soon as Aunt Xiao left, the two of them slipped into the greenhouse.

He took the key, turned the mechanism, and a dark corridor appeared before his eyes.

Ji Yunhuan closed his eyes, then shook his head slightly, "It's too far. I don't know what's inside, and I can't touch what's inside. We have to move forward."

Lin Yuan led the way in front, protecting Ji Yunhuan behind him. Soon, a dark door appeared in front of them. It was made of fine iron and could not be opened by human power.

There are several discs on the door, engraved with the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, as well as some random numbers. It is a very sophisticated mechanism lock.

Lin Yuan felt a little regretful. "I thought the key was enough. Why is there this thing? If I had brought Huang Daxian with me, maybe he would have a solution."

Ji Yunhuan did not dare to turn the discs rashly. If something went wrong, who knows what hidden weapons or traps might be waiting for them.

The two men had no choice but to turn around and go back. Suddenly, a sharp sound was heard in the corridor, like the violent friction between two pieces of iron, almost piercing the eardrums.

Aunt Xiao appeared at the entrance of the corridor at some point. Behind her were thousands of flowers, and in front of her was a corridor surrounded by cold stone walls. Her hand was on an inconspicuous stone.

"Who are you? Who sent you?"

Lin Yuan protected Ji Yunhuan by his side, and his hand had already touched the butcher knife. This Aunt Xiao must know the password. If she kidnapped her, she could enter the secret room, and he wouldn't have to go through the trouble of looking for it.

Aunt Xiao was a little scared. This was the first time someone found the master's secret room. Apart from the master's confidants, she was the only one in the mansion who knew about this place. Even her wet nurse didn't know about it.

"You... don't come over here! If you take another step forward, I'll press the trigger! There's a lot of gunpowder buried here, you'll definitely die!"

"The alarm has been sounded, and someone will be here soon. You definitely can't escape by yourself. It's better to tell the truth. I will report to the master, and maybe I can spare your life."

Ji Yunhuan hid behind Lin Yuan. The light in the corridor was dim, and Aunt Xiao could not see that there was another person behind him.

Lin Yuan knew Huan'er's ability, so he didn't care about the threat at all. He picked up the butcher knife and went towards Aunt Xiao.

A silver ingot hit Aunt Xiao's shoulder. Aunt Xiao was weak and frail, and had little strength. The hit made her body lean to the right, and her hand left the button on the left wall.

Lin Yuan pushed the person against the wall, twisted Aunt Xiao's hands, put the butcher knife against Aunt Xiao's neck, and glared at her.

"Tell me the password and I'll spare your life!"

Ji Yunhuan walked forward, picked up the silver ingot, blew off the ashes and put it in his arms.

Aunt Xiao's face was pressed against the stone wall and was deformed. She couldn't understand how the silver fell. If it was going to fall, it would have fallen in front of her, why did it fall to the right?

"Hiss!" Aunt Xiao gasped in pain. Knowing that she could not defeat the two of them, she immediately chose to show weakness.

"Please spare me, sir! It's useless for you to know the password. I went there and came back, so I ran into you first. It only took a moment for the guards to come over, and you didn't have time to steal anything. It's better to let me go and leave as soon as possible. I will pretend that nothing happened."

Lin Yuan was unmoved, and even twisted Aunt Xiao's arm harder, "Password! If you delay any longer, I will cut off one of your arms!"

Aunt Xiao cried in pain and immediately turned her gaze to Ji Yunhuan, "Miss, you are just asking for money. I have the key to the warehouse. You can use it as you like. Just let me go."

Ji Yunhuan really found the key from Aunt Xiao and took it without hesitation.

The voices of guards could be heard outside; they were already heading towards the greenhouse.

Ji Yunhuan nodded at Lin Yuan, and Lin Yuan let go of Aunt Xiao and put the butcher knife back.

He put his arm around Ji Yunhuan's waist and whispered, "It seems like we can't do it today. Let's go to the warehouse. A thief never leaves empty-handed. We have to take something with us."

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you have the key or not, it’s easy to empty the warehouse.

Aunt Xiao squatted on the ground, covering her arms with tears in her eyes.

Ji Yunhuan pushed Lin Yuan's hand away, squatted down and looked at Aunt Xiao. She stared into Aunt Xiao's eyes and said word by word: "Xiao Shiyu, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, her parents died unexpectedly, and she was sent to the Tu family as a concubine by her relatives."

"Do you want to leave the Tu family? Do you want to stand in front of the world openly? Do you want to take back your own property? Are you willing to be trapped here for the rest of your life and watch your enemies live happily?"

"Xiao Shiyu, you only have one chance. Cooperate with me. As long as you nod, I will be willing to help you!"
