Death Princess

In the depths of Jianzong's dungeon.

"Young master." A series of salutes.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Zhao Lu held two jugs of wine, nodded with exhaustion on her face, "Go and rest first, I have something to talk to him about."

"Yes!" The guards left.

At the same time, Misty, who was locked in the dungeon by four chains, raised his head.

Zhao Lu walked to the iron gate and waved her hand, turning the entire gate and the iron chains tied with the fog surface into iron filings, then sat down on the ground, put the two jugs of wine on the ground, and said coldly: "Sit down!" ,drink."

"What do you mean?" Wumian rubbed his sore wrists that were chained by iron chains, "Since I fell into your hands, you can kill me or cut me to pieces, so why hang on like this every day? Cheng, what do you expect to find out from me?"

"Heh," Zhao Lu raised her eyelids, and didn't care what Wumian was doing, but picked up one of the pots of wine by herself, poured it down, "but I'm afraid that I will poison you in the wine? Who am I, what do I have?" Ability, you also know, what I want to know has already been obtained from you without you realizing it, although the one on the dragon chair wants to prevent the leakage of secrets, you people who are used as cannon fodder are not at all Don't know what meaningful information."

"Then what's the plan?" Foggy face still stood there without moving.

"Foggy face, foggy face, look at you," pointing to Wumian's nose, "You have transformed into a Wind Whisper Guard, and your tone of voice is different from before."

"Humph."

"I don't plan to do anything. I just see that although there is food and drink in this dungeon, it's boring, so I just come to drink and chat with you." Zhao Lu drank a few more sips of wine.

Wumian sat across from him suspiciously, "What do you want to talk about? Don't you already know everything by magic?"

"Some things, it feels different when you tell them yourself." Zhao Lu made a gesture of invitation, "The wine is Songgusan antidote, after drinking and chatting, let's make a break. Don't look at me like this, I can be regarded as half a martial idiot, I have long wanted to try the skills of the three masters, not to mention, there are old and new enmities between you and me." Saying, conjured up Put the Japanese knife in front of Wumian.

"New grudges, old grudges?" Wu Mian raised the corners of his mouth and brought the scars on his face, "I don't remember when I offended you, Young Master Chao. Could it be that you are taking His Highness's grudges on yourself ?”

"Look at the call from His Highness to the left and the call from His Highness to the right." Zhao Lu also stopped laughing, "Could it be that Master Wu has forgotten what he has done to Leng Tong before? Do you think you are After doing those things, the one on the dragon chair may let you live well? Or, "Chao Lu's expression became dangerous, "everything you did was acquiesced by that one."

With a slightly surprised expression, Wu Mian looked at Zhao Lu for a long time, and finally said: "Since you already know, why bother..."

"I said," Zhao Lu interrupted her coldly, "I want to hear it from you." Her tone was very flat.

Wumian laughed, this time laughing without fear.After laughing enough, he drank the wine in the jug in one breath: "It doesn't matter, I already knew that when this mission is over, no matter what is waiting for me, there is only one death, the only difference is that I die at the hands of you evil race." , or disemboweled at the foot of the imperial city. That being the case, it is not a loss to be able to compete with the Wuying Sword before death." He picked up the Japanese sword thrown at his feet, pulled out the blade a little, and closed it again "Good knife."

Chaolu didn't answer.

"Since you want to talk, then tell me, where do you want to start?" Foggy asked.

"From scratch."

"From the beginning." Wu Mian repeated these two words, "From the birth of Her Majesty, or from Her Majesty's entry into the dark pavilion?" Without waiting for Zhaolu to answer, he continued, "You guessed right, Your Majesty is deliberately conniving The empress let go of His Highness and the Leng family and Jiao family, and from the beginning to the end, His Highness was surrounded by His Majesty's people. And the disaster of the Yijiao in Leng's village ten years ago was indeed our Feng Yuwei's hands and feet. "

"Why?"

"Why? Why isn't there why?" Wu Mian seemed to find Zhao Lu's question a bit funny, "Your Highness is His Majesty's only heir, and naturally he is also the only heir to the throne. It is said that if the six fingers are unknown, the He family will be destroyed within 20 years, but this is unknown, just send the six-fingered crown prince away from the palace, cut off the six fingers, bring them back after 20 years, and it will be broken."

Chao Lu frowned.

"Since ancient times," Wu Mian continued, "Which emperor is willing to let his crown prince grow in the hands of his wife, and use the benevolence of a woman to govern the country? The princes of all dynasties have not practiced literature and martial arts since they can stand up At the age of ten, although it is not considered to be proficient in eloquence and eighteen kinds of martial arts, it is already beyond the reach of ten-year-old children in ordinary people, let alone in a remote and poor village?"

"Your Highness is a woman. If she wants to inherit the throne, she must go through trials, so that she can kill decisively and no longer have a woman's heart. These teachings and trainings have been started since she was ten years old, and it is already too late. Therefore, Your Majesty needs Your Highness Acceleration requires her to grow up and become stronger in a very short period of time, and the experience of wandering the streets and assassins in the secret cabinet is the best instant medicine. Of course, from the beginning to the end, there are Fengyuwei guards by His Highness's side to protect her life Nothing to worry about. His Highness has never left Fengyuwei's sight, and everything that His Highness has experienced is within His Majesty's calculations, except for you, the evil race."

Temper, crash.

Chao Lu's fist in front of her was involuntarily clenched.

"Otherwise, do you think that how could a ten-year-old child live well in the secret cabinet where the strong are kings and still occupy one of the three seats? How could His Highness be so coincidentally in the Shadow Gate Something happened to your property, and by such a coincidence, you were spotted by Pavilion Master Ou who happened to be passing by?"

"Master Ou?" Chao Lu asked.

"That's right, Master Ou is also a member of Fengyuwei. Whether he marries someone from the evil clan or betrays Fengyuwei, it's all a trick. After all, it's a question of whether or not to kill a Jiao family who is poisonous." It's not big at all, but marrying the spirit clan as a stake to drive into the spirit clan is more attractive to His Majesty. It's a pity that your majesty didn't expect that although the woman is a spirit clan, she hasn't been with her from the beginning to the end. Half of the tribe has been in contact."

"Master Ou's mission gradually became in name only, until His Majesty's new order arrived, asking him to break into the secret cabinet and prepare for His Highness's arrival. However, His Majesty's original order was to dispose of the evil woman and A pair of evil sons, but he let the woman go and took the child to the dark pavilion together."

"What about He Kunshu?" Zhao Lu asked again.

"Although He Kunshu has the surname 'He', he is actually not much different from other wild species that grew up in the brothel. If it weren't for the cover of His Majesty who was still the prince at that time, his name would not even appear on the Royal Jade Butterfly .”

"So, when the first emperor ordered to destroy King Sui, His Majesty let him go?"

"Naturally." Wu Mian said, "Before that, King Ji and King Jing were demoted to common people and left the capital, and His Majesty's power in Jianghu is still weak, so he naturally needs some people who are determined to keep an eye on the restless Two brothers, and that person happened to be the cousin He Kunshu who has always been grateful to His Majesty and regarded him as a reborn parent."

"It's just that he never thought that this stake in Jianghu would have his own thoughts because of his adopted son?" Zhao Lu asked.

"Prince Ping's collusion with He Kunshu should have been expected by His Majesty. After all, the road to passing on to His Highness is very long, and His Majesty has to find a reason to deal with it for His Highness. But it can't be dealt with cleanly. It needs to be removed." After losing their fangs and sharp claws, keep them as internal worries, and the remnants of the evil clan who have been severely damaged as external troubles. His Majesty is very clear about the principle of living in sorrow and dying in peace. He wants to train His Highness to be a wise king. Unfortunately, people As good as it is, His Majesty never thought that His Highness would be involved with you, and it has even reached this point."

"When I gave the first-class mission to His Highness, it was because the '20 years' that the fortune teller said was about to pass, and His Majesty planned to call His Highness back to Beijing, so he needed a way to make the 'Three Jue Suing Leng Tong' die unexpectedly. In order to let Princess Yong'an appear in front of the world. Your Highness took the task and left, and I sent someone behind. Your Highness is very vigilant, and our people can only follow from a long distance, waiting for the opportunity to switch the 'life', and then let 'Death' died at your hands."

"But no one expected that His Highness did not choose to enter Jianzong from the West Mountain Pass, but went to the Yixiantian where there is no way out. When we caught up, His Highness had disappeared. I sent countless groups of people to sneak in. Jianzong also returned in vain, His Highness seemed to have evaporated from the world. When we got news from His Highness again, it was time for you to send people to deal with the Dark Pavilion. But at that time, both Jianzong and Shadow Gate were involved After coming in, Feng Yuwei had no chance to act again. Coupled with He Kunshu and King Ping who were thinking about it, the matter completely got out of control."

"I was ordered to enter the Dark Pavilion to keep an eye on He Kunshu. I didn't know His Highness's identity at the beginning. But I didn't expect the Lord Ou to die suddenly. In a hurry, the task of guarding His Highness fell on me. I was also at that time Only then did I understand the reason why Pavilion Master Ou took special care of His Highness, but Wu Mian's image in everyone's mind was a lustful person. If I suddenly changed my attitude towards His Highness at that time, it would inevitably make He Kunshu and His Highness suspicious, so I had no choice but to Bite the bullet and continue, left and right, my life belongs to His Majesty."

"I looked at His Highness from one side, but I was negligent in monitoring He Kunshu on the other side. I accidentally showed my feet, which made him suspect me. He forced me to participate in the martial arts conference, and forced me to attack His Highness, just to test my strength. Loyalty. I am stuck on the back of a tiger for a while, so I can only show ruthless hands, actually waiting for you or He Kunshu to stop me. After all, He Kunshu is just trying to test me, and has no intention to expose me in front of everyone when you expose my identity. Wulin's face broke the rules of the conference and Shadow Gate lost its reputation."

"As for the Young Sect Master of Jianzong, you take action... To be honest, I am the last thing I want to see." Before Chao Lu asked, he explained, "The relationship between Your Majesty Jianzong and the evil clan has not been once or twice. If there is no solid evidence, it is not good to directly kill the number one sect in the martial arts, which will waste people and money. Jianzong's excessive attention to His Highness will inevitably make people think too much. If you save His Highness, if you are innocent Because you are interested in His Highness, it is not the worst, if it is because you know His Highness's identity... that is His Majesty's worst nightmare."

"And this nightmare has now become a reality." Wu Mian said word by word.

Nightmare has become reality.

The scene of Leng Tong falling off the cliff was replayed in Zhao Lu's mind over and over again.These days, she can't help but think, if she hadn't intervened at the beginning, wouldn't it be that... Leng Tong has already gone to the palace to be a princess safely and happily?Instead of being like now... Life and death are unpredictable?
