Chapter 173 The past between Cheng Yan and Sheng Li (1)
Xu Anan took it and observed it carefully for a moment, but still couldn't see what kind of talisman it was, so he asked, "What is this?"

"The concealment talisman can hide the breath and body shape for an hour."

Her charming eyes widened incredulously for a moment: "The concealment talisman?"

This is something she saw in ancient books, but it is no longer available.

"Where did you come from?"

Cheng Huai's expression remained unchanged: "Picked it up." After that, he added: "Together with the secret book."

Xu Anan: "..."

Where could she find such a treasure? She also wanted to squat for a while.

She raised her eyes and glanced at Cheng Huai, thinking that she could just go by herself, and as for him, don't go. She couldn't bear much harm from the Yin Qi hitting her body, but Cheng Huai was different. He, an ordinary person, couldn't bear it. Can't live.

Speaking of which, he could still see Cheng Huan's soul. When she went to open his sleeves, the black air on her hands had become much lighter and would completely disappear after a while.

"How does it feel to see a ghost?" Xu Anan teased him.

Cheng Huai didn't feel much either: "That's it, nothing special."

"You are not afraid?"

"What's there to be afraid of?" Cheng Huai also paused and smiled: "After my mother died, for a while I hoped to see a ghost. Maybe she had stopped beside me, but I couldn't see it. ."

He could see now, and the people he wanted to see could no longer be seen.

Xu Anan wanted to ask how his mother died, but the words could not come out. She had not forgotten that the last time she touched Queen Wen, he looked disgusted.

Could it be that the cause of Queen Wen's death was related to the Xu family?

With this doubt planted in her heart, Xu Anan wasn't going to ask Cheng Huaiye, so she went to Xu Kangwen.

Speaking of which, her scumbag father hasn't been looking for her for a long time, and she didn't poison Cheng Huai either. He should have known about it, but he didn't make any move. Could it be that he gave up?

The only thing Xu Anan didn't figure out now was who the person she wanted to save was.

It seems that if I take the time, I have to go to the Hou Mansion to find out the news.

"What are you thinking?"

Hearing Cheng Huaiye's voice, Xu Anan came back to her senses. She looked into his dark eyes, and then said, "I can go to Prince Sheng's Mansion alone tonight."

"No." Cheng Huai didn't even think about refusing: "I'll go with you."

Knowing what she was worried about, Cheng Huai also continued: "I don't need your protection."

"Otherwise, you will stay in the palace and you will not be allowed to go anywhere."

Xu Anan took a step back: "Okay, let's leave after one hour."

"After this incident is over, you are not allowed to leave the palace again." He glanced lightly across her abdomen.

Is she not allowed to leave the palace to let her lie down?
She thought it was okay, so she agreed: "Okay, I'm not going to leave the palace anymore. I'm too tired. It would be nice to lie down in the palace."

"I also feel comfortable lying down."

Xu Anan didn't think deeply about his meaningful words, and she returned to Ziwei Palace.

At night, the Shengwang Mansion was shrouded in Shengli's yin energy, and there was a gloomy wind.

Xu Anan looked up at the moon that was half-shadowed in the clouds. There was a faint blood red around the clouds. She and Cheng Huai also used the concealment charm as soon as they arrived at the door, otherwise they would be swept away as soon as their auras appeared in the house. Li found out.As soon as the two of them stepped into Prince Sheng's Mansion, the desolate scene in front of them immediately changed.

The Sheng Prince's Mansion in front of him was magnificent and magnificent, and it was very noisy as the servants were busy coming in and out.

"Has the bastard who killed the prince been brought here?"

Xu Anan looked at the source of the sound. He was a plump and fat man, very well-dressed, and he should be a housekeeper in Prince Sheng's palace.

There was a young man in gray clothes in front of him. He nodded and bowed to the housekeeper: "Steward Sheng, that bastard is right behind. Look, he's entering the house now."

The scene at the door changed. Cheng Huan, who was wearing tattered clothes, was brought in. He was still young and looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old. His face was bruised, his body was very thin, and his eyes were wolfish. He was as ferocious as a cub, looking hatefully at the person in front of him who was mocking and sizing him up.

A fierce light flashed in Steward Sheng's eyes: "Hmph, you killed the prince. This bastard is doomed. Someone come and take him to the prince!"

After Guanshi Sheng finished speaking, all the people in front of him disappeared. The scene was over, and Xu Anan hurriedly pulled Cheng Huai and headed straight to the east courtyard.

The two stepped into the hanging flower door, and the scene in front of them suddenly changed.

Cheng Yan was forced to kneel in front of a middle-aged man. The man's eyes were scarlet. He kicked Cheng Yan in the heart, causing Cheng Yan to spurt blood.

"Is it this little servant boy who attracted several noble nobles to fight for him? Which led to the death of the king's legitimate son?"

Manager Sheng bowed and said, "The prince is him. He is the leader of the newly sold Fengyue Tower. Because of his stunning appearance, the prince refused to give in and got into a fight with several other princes. He accidentally fell from the railing and died."

Prince Sheng looked at Cheng Huan's face and hated him to death. He thought that only women were the ones to fight for, but he never thought that one day, his son would be obsessed with such a thing.

"Come here, throw him into the water prison. Remember, don't kill him. Leave him to his last breath. I will make him live and not die!"

Cheng Huai finally understood why his ancestor kept silent about the past. It turned out that he still had such a humiliating period, when he was sold by a kidnapper into a small shop.

His eyes flashed, and he and Xu Anan were already in a water prison. There was indeed water in this cell, but it was full of blood. A person's feet would be wet if he stepped on it.

He watched Cheng Huan being tied to the iron frame, and the guards inside whipped him crazily with spiked whips. Blood splashed on the faces of the tormentors, making their expressions twisted and crazy.

The scene outside changed from season to season. The iron chains holding Cheng Yan were soaked in his blood and rusted, but he still had a breath left.

People in the cell tortured him in different ways every day, and all kinds of torture were tried on him, but he still managed to survive.

Three years passed in time outside, and he spent the same three years in the water prison. Today, the guard guarding him found a branding iron with the words "Slave of Prince Sheng's Mansion" written on it.

The hot iron and the disgusting expression of gloating about misfortune made Cheng Huai feel nauseated. He wanted to step forward to stop him, but then he found that he had passed through the image, and the iron was stamped all over Cheng Huai's body like a curse.

The sizzling sound between the red iron and the flesh makes people feel scared.

Even though the pain was extreme, his face was twisted in pain, and his eyes were full of bone-gnawing hatred, Cheng Huan still didn't say a word.

"You stop!"

A shout sounded in the water prison.

The visitor was Sheng Li, and she turned red with anger when she looked at the miserable scene inside.

She really couldn't agree with her own father's behavior. It wasn't until today that she learned that an innocent boy had been tortured in her home for three full years.

"Let him go! He belongs to the princess!"

 After roughly finishing the story of Cheng Yan and Sheng Li, the second dungeon will be opened tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
