The black-bellied concubine is not favored

Chapter 529

"I didn't expect that the place the empress wanted to come to would be the Heavenly Prison—"

He Yilan raised her eyes to look at the plaque above her head, then lowered her eyes to the kneeling servant and said.

Mu Tianxue twitched the corner of her lower lip, and without taking He Yilan's words, she directly approached the sky prison and went down to the ninth floor of the sky prison.

"Subordinates refer to Master Xue—"

When Lan Yi and Lu Yi saw Mu Tianxue and He Yilan coming to the ninth floor of the dungeon, they rushed to meet them and knelt on one knee respectfully.

Mu Tianxue cast a cold glance at the two of them, and said in a toneless voice, "Get up, there will be something to gain!!!"

Lan Yi and Lu Yi stood up and respectfully said: "This subordinate is incompetent, the assassin's tongue is very tight, he wanted to bite his tongue to kill himself several times, but passed out again under the torture!"

Mu Tianxue raised her eyes slightly, and raised her hands. Lan Yi and Lu Yi immediately stepped aside. She glanced at He Yilan, and saw that He Yilan was looking at the entire prison cell with a calm expression on her face. With Ruowu's smile, he walked towards the cell.

He Yilan squinted her eyes and looked around, and finally her eyes fell on the man in black who was tied up in the prison cell. Seeing that the man in black was pumping all over his body, he was dying with his head down, and his arms were cut off. Most of the flesh on his body had been removed, and there were layers of dark blood stains on the ground, covered by a layer of wet blood.

She frowned unconsciously, assassin, could it be his people?She felt a little uneasy, and followed Mu Tianxue's footsteps into the cell! !

Lan Yi brought two chairs to Mu Tianxue and He Yilan, and Lu Yi scooped up a basin of salt water from the man in black's head and poured it on his body.

"Well--"

Perhaps after the excruciating pain of cutting flesh, the pain of splashing salt water was already too much for the man in black, so it didn't work. He only heard him groan and groan in pain, and pumped his body , still in a coma.

"What kind of assassin needs to be tortured with such cruel torture?"

He Yilan was sitting on the chair, looking at the man in black with probing eyes, and saw that wherever there was muscle on the man in black, he could see white bones, red flesh and blood, and even flesh and blood. It is cruel and terrible.

"This assassin is a man, no matter how tortured, his mouth is tight." Mu Tianxue has been closely watching He Yilan's reaction and expression: "I don't know, what unique trick does the princess have that can make this assassin speak?" !"

He Yilan looked at Mu Tianxue with averted eyes, and said dissatisfiedly: "The empress really thinks highly of this princess, what tricks can this princess have to make this assassin speak!"

Mu Tianxue curled the corner of her lower lip, stood up and walked to the unconscious man in black, leaned into the man's ear, and said in a low voice, "Your princess is here to collect your body, don't you see him!!? "

"Well--"

The man in black who was originally in a coma opened his eyes in an instant, raised his eyes to look at Mu Tianxue beside him in horror, and then looked at He Yilan who was sitting on the chair, his eyes dimmed in horror.

At the same time, He Yilan's restless heart immediately calmed down after seeing the face of the man in black. She looked at Mu Tianxue and said in a displeased tone, "It's the empress who can do it. The salt water can't wake up the assassin. As soon as the empress passed by, the assassin woke up!"

Mu Tianxue pursed her lips and sneered, taking in all the flashing expressions and reflections in the eyes of He Yilan and the man in black.

Hearing He Yilan's displeased but reassuring words, she glanced at the man in black and said, "Your bones are indeed strong enough. I appreciate a loyal person like you!"

The man in black lowered his head weakly, closed his eyes, and moaned in pain, "Kill me, no matter what tricks you use, you will never get any news from me!"

"I have always admired men with backbone. It would be a pity if you died like this." Mu Tianxue gave the man in black a cold look, walked to the chair and sat down, looked at Lan Yi and said coldly: "Lan Yi Yi, prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones—"

"Yes, Master Xue." Lan Yi immediately left the cell after responding, and after a few minutes, brought over the four treasures of the study and rice paper.

Seeing Mu Tianxue spreading out the rice paper and Lan Yi studying the ink, as if ready to write, He Yilan was a little confused: "What does the Empress want?"

Mu Tianxue picked up the pen and dipped some ink, raised her eyes and glanced at He Yilan, and said, "I can't paint with this hand, I wonder if the princess would like to do it for me?"

"Painting?" He Yilan frowned, looked at the man in black who was tied up and said, "Does the Empress want to draw this assassin's appearance?"

Mu Tianxue smiled lightly, "Since the assassin's mouth is stubborn, I can't do anything about it. I can only think of this stupid way to draw the assassin's appearance and paste it in the capital!"

He Yilan's frown deepened, her eyes were full of puzzlement, "This assassin has been arrested, what's the use of drawing him and posting it? If he can tell the appearance and name of his accomplice, he can still draw it." Post it and send officers and soldiers to arrest it!!"

Mu Tianxue nodded, and sighed helplessly, "The princess is right, but unfortunately, this assassin didn't say anything, so I can only use this stupid method to see if I can lure his accomplice, or Please princess do it for me!"

He Yilan scoffed at Mu Tianxue's stupid approach, but she didn't refuse, took the brush from Mu Tianxue's hand, asked Lu Yi to lift the man in black's head, and began to draw.

In less than a moment, He Yilan had already drawn the face of the man in black on the rice paper. It has to be said that He Yilan's painting skills were quite good, not only fast, but the characters he drew were almost the same as himself.

"Thank you, Princess Yilan!" Mu Tianxue thanked He Yilan with the finished painting, handed the painting to Lan Yi, and ordered, "Put him down and send someone to watch him. Let him bite his tongue and kill himself! For such a man of backbone, biting his tongue and killing himself will destroy his entire backbone!"

"Yes, Master Snow!!"

Lan Yi put away the portrait, walked outside the cell door and called the servant to enter the cell, put the man in black off the iron pillar, and carried him into a cell in a closed room.

When leaving the cell, the scorching sun was shining, and it was almost noon, He Yilan didn't stay in the palace for long, and after bidding farewell to Mu Tianxue, she walked on the way out of the palace.

"Master Snow, this portrait—"

After seeing He Yilan leave, Lan Yi took the portrait and asked Mu Tianxue for instructions.

Mu Tianxue squinted at He Yilan's leaving back, and said, "Luyi, go and spy on Princess Yilan secretly, there are hidden guards protecting her in secret, you must remember, don't be fooled by her and her secret guards." Wei found out!"

"Yes, Luyi obeys." Luyi said respectfully, then turned and disappeared from the sight of Mu Tianxue and Lanyi! !

After Luyi left, Mu Tianxue glanced at the portrait that Lanyi handed over, and ordered: "Teach the portrait to Yumian, let him make an identical face as quickly as possible according to the face on the portrait. Get out the mask!"
