Xiangmen Concubine: The Emperor's Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 635 Behind the Scenes
"Zhuo Lin, why are you here?" Wan Hong stared at the man in black who had entered her room, her eyes widened.

The man looked at Wan Hong and pulled off the face scarf, revealing a face in his early thirties with a scar from the corner of his mouth to his neck.

"I just got the news that Chen Bo is dead, and Boss Cheng is also dead." The man in black named Zhuo Lin said.

Wanhong was shocked, she put on her coat and looked at Zhuo Lin: "What's going on, according to the chance, shouldn't the empress be the empress?"

Wan Hong made a gesture of wiping her neck.

Zhuo Lin frowned: "I don't know the specific situation, it's up to Li Quan now. I haven't found him yet, I'll ask him about the situation when I find him."

Wan Hong frowned: "Li Quan? Could he be dead too? Or, has he been exposed?"

Zhuo Lin shook his head: "No, Li Quan has always been greedy for life and afraid of death. The inside of the tunnel was pitch black, and he was in ambush there early in the morning. Whenever there is a situation, he must be the fastest one to run."

Wan Hong thought for a while, then nodded: "That's right. The master has an order, and the situation has changed recently, so let's stay put for a while, so as not to arouse their suspicion."

Zhuo Lin nodded: "I see, then I'll go first, you are in the palace, pay more attention."

Wanhong smiled triumphantly: "Don't worry about this wine. The Supreme Emperor is not in good health, and Gu Ruoying is already dead. In this Ming and Qing palace, who would pay attention to a little-known court lady?"

When Zhuo Lin heard this, he smiled and nodded: "You are still smart, no wonder the master kept you in the palace, and chose you to come to the Ming and Qing palaces."

Seemingly thinking of something, Zhuo Lin asked: "By the way, what does the master say about the Empress Dowager?"

Wan Hong frowned: "Well, the master has never mentioned to me about the matter over at Renshou Palace. Naturally, it's not easy for me to ask."

"Why did you remember to ask this question?" Wanhong looked at Zhuo Lin in surprise.

Zhuo Lin said: "I didn't hear the news from outside that the empress dowager's temperament has changed a lot recently, and she seems to be a little unstable. Just ask casually, don't take it to heart."

Wan Hong's figure flashed, and she had already arrived at Zhuo Lin's side.Seeing this, Zhuo Lin stepped back instantly, while Wan Hong pressed on step by step.

Zhuo Lin was anxious: "Wanhong, what are you doing?"

Wan Hong snorted coldly: "What are you doing? Tell me, who are you?"

Zhuo Lin sneered, stared at Wan Hong and said coldly: "Wan Hong, are you stupid or something, I don't even doubt it?"

Pulling out the long sword under the pillow, Wan Hong directly pushed over: "Zhuo Lin never asks more questions, especially about Renshou Palace."

Zhuo Lin suddenly smiled, hahaha, his voice was a little low: "As expected of a person specially selected by your master, a mere court lady can be so vigilant!"

Zhuo Lin raised his hand and somehow made a move. A human skin mask was torn off his face, revealing a familiar face.

The fourth prince Kayan of the frontier fortress country looked at the slightly pale Wanhong, his eyes were cold: "Take me to meet your master, I will spare you!"

Wan Hong snorted coldly: "Don't even think about it!"

Kayan smiled sullenly, staring at Wan Hong with pale cheeks: "Don't even think about it? You think that if you don't take me there, I won't know. Who is your master?"

As he approached Wanhong step by step, Kayan said with a sinister smile, "Wanhong, don't forget, I'm using Zhuo Lin's human skin mask!"

It was precisely because of this that Wan Hong turned pale instantly after seeing the face behind the human skin mask.The hand holding the long sword trembled slightly, she looked at Kayan.

"What about Zhuo Lin? What did you do to Zhuo Lin?"

Kayan smiled gloomyly, looked at Wan Hong and said, "You said that this king has his human skin mask, and you should know his fate."

"Besides, you are one of your master's confidantes. I believe your master should have told you about the production of human skin masks by the royal family of the frontier country."

The hand holding the long sword was trembling slightly, and even the whole body was trembling slightly.

Wanhong's eyes were a little absent-minded, she looked at Kayan in disbelief: "No... no... no!"

"No?" Kayan laughed loudly, "In order to obtain an excellent and realistic human skin mask, it is naturally best to peel off the skin while the person is still alive, you say, right? , Hongwan?"

Wan Hong was shocked again, her eyes widened, and she looked at Ka Yan who was approaching her step by step in horror: "You...you..."

Kayan smiled sullenly, and proudly said: "Hehe, it's strange, isn't it? They are also human skin masks. If this king can take Zhuo Lin's, you can naturally peel off Wanhong's, right?"

Wan Hong's knees softened, and she knelt down directly.

Kayan stared at her, and said darkly: "Sure enough, a woman's heart is a sea needle. For a man, he managed to do such a murderous thing!"

He looked at that face, and paused every word: "The wan red human skin you are wearing on your face now, it looks like it was peeled off when she was still alive, right?"

Wan Hong, who was kneeling on the ground, was trembling all over: "Stop talking!"

"Hahaha, if you dare to do it, don't you dare to let me tell you?" Kayan laughed, staring at Wanhong and said: "This king is not as poisonous as you. If you live to say, this king still wants to take advantage of it." You, get that thing from the Fang family."

Staring at Wanhong condescendingly with his head down, Kayan said: "So, this king's skin cheek is a fake. Your lover is still intact at this moment, except for the broken tendon of his hand."

"How about it, do you choose to continue to follow the eldest princess, or follow the king?" Kayan asked slowly after sitting down on the chair opposite Wanhong.

There was a look of evil on his face.Although he was smiling, that kind of smile was particularly eerie when viewed in such a late night.

Hong Wan, who was kneeling on the ground, gritted her teeth and kowtowed to Ka Yan: "Hong Wan sees the master!"

"Hahahaha!" Kayan was very proud, staring at Hongwan and said: "Since you have chosen me, then tell me that the eldest princess asked you to lurk in Fang's house, what exactly do you want?"

Hong Wan tremblingly said: "Master, I don't know. I only know that that thing is very important to Fang's family, and even the entire Fengtian Dynasty. And that thing is now in Fang's family."

"When you killed Wanhong, didn't you even find out about this?" Kayan's voice was clearly unhappy, with a trace of anger.

Hong Wan hurriedly said: "No...Master, this slave did not kill Wan Hong."

Kayan stared at her coldly: "No? You didn't kill Wanhong, you even took her face, how can you not kill her?"

Hong Wan said in a low voice: "Because the slave didn't get the whereabouts of that thing, and didn't even know what it was, so I kept giving her a sigh of relief."

"Is it true that when Zhuo Lin ignores you, or ignores you, and hangs out with other women, you still go to get a bronze mirror and ask Wan Hong to look at the bronze mirror?"

Hong Wan panicked: "Master, spare your life, master, spare your life, this slave will never dare again!"

Kaya laughed loudly: "Why not? That Wanhong is from the Fang family, as long as she doesn't tell what that thing is and where it is, you will torture her every day!"

"Master?" Hong Wan was puzzled.

Kayan snorted coldly: "The Empress Dowager's side, the Fang family's side from the frontier country, what kind of witchcraft did they get?"

"Yes...Miss Fang asked someone to find the eldest princess, and got it from the Warlocks of Southern Border. It is said that it is similar to the food given to the dwarves in the palace." Hong Wan said.

Kayan frowned, thinking about his current situation, his expression depressed: "Find a way to get the antidote from the eldest princess, or a way to get rid of it! In a few days, the king will come to you again!"

In a flash, Hong Wan was the only one left in the room.
