A silly girl is reborn, and a ruthless prince loves her

Hongying immediately panicked upon hearing this, and her usual fake smile disappeared without a trace in an instant, replaced by deep worry.

No wonder the second prince asked the secret guard to tell her to come back quickly. It turned out that that person was back.

Thinking of what was very likely to happen, Hongying could no longer sit still and hurriedly opened the carriage curtain and saw that they had returned to the entrance of the Second Prince's Mansion.

"Miss Yan, the matter is urgent. I have to go to Mo An to discuss the matter. Can you go back alone first?"

Hongying was a little embarrassed. Logically speaking, she should stay by Miss Yan's side, but the second prince was more urgent and could not waste a moment.

"I have no problem, you go ahead and do your work." Lan Jinyan said without thinking.

Hong Ying smiled sincerely and said, "Thank you, girl, for your understanding."

Lan Jinyan watched her leave in a hurry, becoming even more certain that the King of Southern Xinjiang was a dangerous person.

But my brother is also very capable, so why should we be afraid of him?

Full of doubts in her heart, she got off the carriage and sat down alone on the stone steps at the door of the mansion. She looked at the crowded streets and fell into deep thought.

Until nightfall, the steward of the mansion opened the door and saw Lan Jinyan sleeping on the stone steps, leaning against the stone lion, and quickly shook her awake.

"Girl, why did you fall asleep here?" Uncle Zhong, the steward, asked with concern.

Lan Jinyan opened her eyes, her eyes gradually clearing up, and she casually glanced at the sky. It turned out that it was already so late.

She had a dream just now, in which a black python and a red python had an earth-shattering fight. The black python blinded one of the red python's eyes, and the red python scratched the black python's...

Ok?

forget.

I think I was frightened today, so I had this weird dream.

Lan Jinyan stood up on the stone steps and stretched her muscles. Only then did she notice that there was someone following her.

"You are Uncle Zhong, brother, are they back?"

She had some impression of Uncle Zhong. He was the manager of the house, he was honest, honest and diligent.

Uncle Zhong shook his head, "Not yet, it's already so late. I'll take you to have a meal first. Otherwise, if the second prince comes back and finds out that you're hungry, it's my fault."

Although Xuanyuan Qing didn't say anything, the other servants knew the fate of Grandma Wang and others.

They cannot afford to neglect this silly girl that the second prince picked up.

"Okay, Uncle Zhong, could you please lead the way." Lan Jinyan touched her stomach, as if she was a little hungry.

Uncle Zhong smiled and nodded, "No trouble, please come this way, girl."

A trace of surprise flashed through her cloudy eyes. This silly girl was quite polite and didn't look like a fool.

After dinner, Lan Jinyan walked around holding a white steamed bun and nibbling on it. The servants passing by her stopped and greeted her respectfully before continuing to do the work at hand.

The two maids who were whispering behind her that day also bowed nervously when they saw her.

"Hello, girl." The two of them glanced at her timidly, then quickly lowered their heads.

The white camellias picked from Liuguangchi are still alive and well. This girl Yan is really extraordinary.

Lan Jinyan walked around the house and found nothing unusual. When she saw these two people, her eyes lit up.

"Do you know about the little black room?" She put away the uneaten buns and lowered her voice.

Hearing the words "Little Black Room", the two of them trembled visibly. They looked at each other quietly and said in unison: "I don't know."

"Oh?" Lan Jinyan chuckled, obviously not believing it, "You know clearly that you can't pick the camellias in Liuguang Pond, and you deliberately wait to see my joke. Tell me, if my brother finds out, will he put you in Xiaohei too? Room?"

The two maids were timid and could not withstand the threats. They knelt down in fear and begged for mercy.

"Girl, spare your life, we don't dare to do it anymore."

"Young lady, you don't know. The small dark room is an unspeakable forbidden place in the mansion. It's gloomy and terrifying, and there are instruments of torture everywhere. Every servant who makes a mistake is locked in there and has no chance to come out again. I beg you, girl, to have mercy and forgive me." Be a slave."

They were really scared. They should not have had bad intentions in the first place.

Lan Jinyan carefully considered their words and immediately realized something was wrong. She frowned and said coldly: "You are lying! Since it is a forbidden area, how do you know what it is like inside?"

She observed how they were shaking like a sieve. It didn't look like they were acting, which showed that what they said was true.

The two maids looked at each other silently. The older one looked around and gritted her teeth, "Please keep this matter a secret, girl. When Grandma Wang was imprisoned a few days ago, the slaves were curious and hid in the small dark room. I took a quick glance outside and got an overview of the scene at the entrance to the house."

"It's okay if I keep it a secret, but you have to tell me where the dark room is." Lan Jinyan curled her lips and continued.

The night is getting darker.

Everything in the house was silent.

Except for the patrolling guards, there was no one else moving.

However, at this moment, a petite figure managed to avoid the guards' sight and hunched over to the edge of a dry well.

She thought the small dark room was a courtyard, but she didn't expect it to be built under a dry well.

No wonder no one is guarding this place. No one would think that there is something else going on below this inconspicuous place.

But how to get down there? I heard from the two maids that there were hundreds of venomous snakes down there.

Lan Jinyan lay down by the well and let out a long sigh.

snake?

Ha ha.

A quarter of an hour later.

Lan Jinyan successfully reached the bottom of the well, turned around and waved her hand at the dense pile of snakes on the ground.

"Thanks, I'll bring something delicious next time. This." She took out a half-eaten bun from her pocket and threw it over. "This is for you."

After that, she turned the switch, the stone door vibrated, there was a tooth-numbing sound of opening the door, and the stone door opened automatically.

A gust of cold breeze blew towards her face, and Lan Jinyan couldn't help but shiver, she hugged her arms and walked inside step by step.

The light here is dim, and the candlelight on the wall is dimly lit, mixed with a vague blue-violet light, which is eerie and terrifying.

With the only light source, Lan Jinyan raised her head and looked upward. She didn't know what to look at, but she was shocked when she saw it.

The corpses hanging upside down above had weird smiles on their faces, their mouths were wide open, and the tongues in their mouths were missing. There were no eyeballs in the empty eye sockets, dark, staring at her like a demon.

Lan Jinyan was so frightened that her hair stood on end. She wanted to run away, but her feet seemed to have taken root in the ground, making it difficult for her to move even an inch.

There was no sound in the air except for her rapid breathing.

Suddenly, she saw a very familiar face above her head. Her feet seemed to be disobedient as she walked up the steps step by step, and finally saw clearly who the owner of this face was.

Grandma Wang!

Lan Jinyan couldn't hold on any longer and rolled down the steps in fright.

Her hand accidentally touched a hard object. She picked it up carefully and looked at the candlelight on the wall carefully.
