Gu Huaiqing escaped!

This news made Xiao Jue furious, and he personally led people to search around, but unfortunately, he searched the entire Wenxiang Island, but there was still no trace of Gu Huaiqing, only Luoxia's body was found among the reeds on the lake beach.

Luoxia held a petal-shaped glazed box in her hand, with a smile on her lips, her expression seemed to be very happy, without any pain at all.Not far from her body lay an extremely sharp dagger.

There was almost no need for an autopsy, Xiao Jue knew that Luoxia had been drunk for a thousand years, and seeing her struggling without pain, she should have committed suicide.

At the same time, another confidant in charge of the search reported that the mechanism under Gu Huaiqing's bed had been activated. Xiao Jue sent people to investigate in the secret passage, and found Gu Huaiqing's coat at the exit leading to the lake. Obviously, he It was swimming and escaped.

Comparing the two, it is not difficult to speculate that Gu Huaiqing escaped through the secret underwater passage, but this secret passage is the secret of Wenxiang Island, only Xiao Jue, Cang Fei and a few confidants know about it. His subordinates are not qualified to know this secret at all.But not only did she know, but she also told Gu Huaiqing. Afterwards, the thief shouted "Stop the thief", misleading the guards to chase in the wrong direction, and finally ran to the lake to commit suicide by taking poison.

Xiao Jue was suspicious by nature, so he immediately thought of Cang Fei. From his point of view, Cang Fei had always disliked Gu Huaiqing, and he was the only one with this motive. Besides, Luoxia had always been his personal maid. If she hadn't been instructed by Cang Fei, How did she know the secret way, how did she get the dagger that cuts iron like mud, and how did she have been drunk for a thousand years?

Xiao Jue ran to Hexiang Garden angrily, and asked why Cang Fei let Gu Huaiqing go.Cang Fei was naturally dissatisfied, and the two quarreled.

Xiao Jue was furious, and actually slapped Cang Fei on the head: "You are a jealous bitch who eats everything else!"

"You...you hit me...you scolded me..." Cang Fei's pretty face immediately swelled up, and he covered his face in disbelief, his eyes were red with anger, and tears were rolling in them. "I, Cangfei, have always dared to act and act. If I did it, I will admit it. If I didn't do it, don't try to wrong me!"

Xiao Jue slapped Cang Fei in a rage, and his anger subsided a lot. Hearing what he said, he calmed down and felt a bit of regret, but he has always been the favored son of heaven, even if he made a mistake, others would not be able to shamelessly apologize. With a cold snort, he flung his sleeves and left.

Cang Fei sat kneeling on the ground, unable to get up for a long time, humiliation, resentment, anger and other multiple emotions were intertwined, roasting him like a raging fire, making him almost crazy.

He suddenly yelled, jumped up and drew out his long sword and slashed, destroying all the luxurious and expensive furnishings in the room, and smashing countless rare treasures to pieces. After venting, he still couldn't get rid of the endless sorrow in his heart and wronged.

After Xiao Jue quarreled with Cang Fei, the anger in his heart was still lingering. While ordering the people from Xuanwu Hall to go into the water to hunt down Gu Huaiqing, he came to the water prison himself.

Duan Mingchen soaked in the water for most of the day, his skin turned white and wrinkled, because he couldn't use his internal strength to keep out the cold, the bone-piercing cold water was like a needle prick, cold to the bones.Fortunately, he was strong-willed, and when he was in severe pain, he tried his best to recall the sweet scenes with Gu Huaiqing in his mind, so as to survive this painful time.

Xiao Jue ordered someone to drag Duan Mingchen out of the water, hang his body high in the air, and put his hands and feet in the iron rings.

"Duan Mingchen, do you know that Gu Huaiqing left you behind and ran away!" Xiao Jue said sinisterly, his words were full of malicious meaning.

Huaiqing escaped?Very good!In Duan Mingchen's heart, there was only ecstasy, without the slightest disappointment or frustration of being left behind.

Xiao Jue observed Duan Mingchen's expression, saw the look of surprise and relief in his eyes, couldn't help becoming more angry, picked up the execution whip, and lashed at him fiercely.

Under Xiao Jue's rage, he struck hard, pouring his internal energy into the whip, and after only a few lashes, Duan Mingchen's soaked clothes were immediately torn, and several shocking bloodstains appeared on his bare skin.

"Are you crazy?!" Duan Mingchen scolded angrily in pain.

"You treacherous person, you lied to me that there is a way for you Jinyiwei to contact the outside world, bullshit!" Under Xiao Jue's rage, he couldn't even maintain his demeanor, and while beating Duan Mingchen fiercely to vent his anger, he said , "If you really have some shitty way to notify the outside world, how could Gu Huaiqing risk to escape? It can be seen that you are lying to me!"

Duan Mingchen saw that Xiao Jue's eyes were red and he looked crazy, so he didn't bother to explain, so he simply closed his eyes and silently endured the pain on his body.

"Hmph, open your eyes for me, why are you pretending to be a hero at this time?" Xiao Jue sneered, "Oh, are you waiting for Gu Huaiqing to rescue you? I advise you not to dream, he won't come back again, You have been abandoned by him!"

Blood flowed from the wound of the whipping, and fell drop by drop on the ground, and soon formed a small puddle on the ground. He suffered from cold and starvation for half a day, and was seriously injured by the whip. Some couldn't hold on, their eyelids became heavy, their lips turned purple, and their bodies were so painful that they became numb.

However, his heart was not shaken in the slightest. Now that Gu Huaiqing escaped, he no longer has any worries. Even if he sacrificed here, he has no regrets.On the first day of being a Jin Yiwei, he understood the risks of engaging in this industry, and was mentally prepared to sacrifice at any time.

However, when thinking of the one he loves, Duan Mingchen is somewhat worried and reluctant after all.They just had the closest contact, but it's a pity that they are going to leave him forever, but Huaiqing is so strong and brave, so he must be able to live a good life. Bloodshot.

"When death is imminent, you can still laugh?"

"Heh... how can a person like you... who is always on the move, despicable and shameless, understand... what is life-and-death unswerving love?"

Xiao Jue stared at Duan Mingchen with a gloomy face. Even though he was beaten to death, he still straightened his back, his eyes were still so clear and proud, as if nothing in the world could make him succumb.

This man has everything he desires, and always has!In that case, it is better to kill him!Even if the father finds out and blames it, at worst, he will admit his mistake and be punished, it's better than letting this thorn in his side stand in the way!

Xiao Jue had evil thoughts all his life, and it was almost impossible to restrain them, with a cruel and fierce light in his eyes, he raised his hand and wrapped a whip around Duan Mingchen's neck, and slowly tightened it.

Duan Mingchen's limbs were chained and his neck was strangled. No matter how hard he struggled, it was futile. He only felt the whip around his neck getting tighter and tighter. He gradually couldn't breathe, and couldn't make a sound. swallow him into darkness...

Just when Duan Mingchen was about to lose his hold, he suddenly heard a thick male voice: "Stop!"

Xiao Jue trembled when he heard the familiar voice, turned around and called, "Father... Father King!"

"You rebellious son, don't let go!"

A slap on Xiao Jue's face was slapped, and the whip in his hand fell to the ground.

Duan Mingchen only felt his neck loosen, subconsciously opened his mouth and took two deep breaths, the long-lost air poured into his nose and nose, clearing his mind.There was a tearing pain in his throat, and he coughed violently a few times until tears came out. He gasped for breath, opened his eyes wide, and looked at the man who saved his life.

The man standing in front of him was as tall and tall as a mountain, wearing a black cloak with golden tornado and cloud patterns, a white dragon belt around his waist, and a purple gold crown on his head. He looked only in his early thirties, with long eyebrows like black ink , eyes like cold stars, face like a crown of jade, his facial features are not inferior to Xiao Jue's, but he has a calm and majestic temperament that Xiao Jue doesn't have.

With such an appearance and such an imposing manner, Duan Mingchen immediately guessed his identity, and then contacted Xiao Jue's call to father just now, the identity of the visitor was self-evident.

When Duan Mingchen looked at King An, he felt that his face was inexplicably familiar. However, King An lived in Suzhou for a long time and lived in seclusion. Duan Mingchen had obviously never seen him.

King An walked over quickly, unchained Duan Mingchen, helped him up himself, and walked outside, regardless of the blood staining his luxurious robes.

As Wang An walked, he turned his head and shouted to Xiao Jue who was standing with his face covered: "What are you still doing in a daze? Go get a doctor!"

Xiao Jue glanced at Duan Mingchen angrily, but didn't dare to disobey his father's order, so he could only run out in desperation to ask for a doctor.

King An brought Duan Mingchen out of the dungeon, and came to a comfortable and luxurious room. Looking at Duan Mingchen's blood-stained body, especially the deep purple strangle mark on his neck, he couldn't hide his distress and guilt in his eyes, and blamed himself: "I came late One step, let you suffer..."

King An stretched out his hand while talking, wanting to touch Duan Mingchen's face. Duan Mingchen was confused by his abnormal words and deeds, and couldn't understand what he meant. He tilted his head and avoided King An's hand, suspicious and guarded Looking at Wang An, he said, "What does your lord mean?"

A trace of embarrassment and bitterness flashed across Wang An's well-maintained handsome face, and he sighed, "Son, I've lied to you for more than 20 years, and it's time for you to know the truth."

"Actually, your surname is not Duan, you are my biological son, Xiao Yu."

"What did you say?" Duan Mingchen was shocked, and stared at King An in disbelief. If he hadn't been injured, he might have jumped up.

"Son, do you feel familiar when you look into my eyes?" Wang An pressed Duan Mingchen on the chair, and leaned his face close to the tip of his nose, "Although most of your appearance is inherited from your mother, But the eyes are exactly the same as mine. When you look at me, do you feel like you are looking in a mirror? Look at A Jue again. Has anyone ever told you that the two of you look somewhat similar? Because you are originally the same half-brother."

"No...impossible! How could my mother...you don't want to slander my mother!" Duan Mingchen shook his head in disbelief, refusing to believe such absurd words, but subconsciously, he believed it a little, not only in Wang An's eyes It's exactly the same as him, and it's because he feels a special kind of intimacy with Wang An, which he has never had with anyone.
