Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 657 The Power of Life and Death
In the back garden, the trees have withered, only winter plums are still in full bloom.

In the scent of wintersweet, Shang Kelan stopped in her tracks and turned her head to look at Hualing: "Wan'er was strangled to death by His Royal Highness, you should know that I, a commoner temporarily living in the mansion, don't have the guts to kill someone." .”

After that, she continued to walk forward.

Hua Ling also followed her, the corners of his lips raised slightly, as if he was smiling, but he didn't seem to: "However, just now, in front of so many slaves, you killed their master and let her fall into the lake You drowned for nothing, even if she wanted to push you into the lotus pond, you still had a chance to give her a hand."

Hearing this, Shang Kelan couldn't help laughing, and turned her head to look at her: "So, are you condemning the daughter of the people for not saving her life, madam?"

Hua Ling shook his head slightly, but nodded again.

"There are only two noble concubines in the mansion, Huae and me. You killed Wan'er, so you replaced her as one of the concubines in the prince's mansion, and you killed Huae just now, so your identity has taken on a new look. She has become a noble concubine of the Prince's Mansion, second only to the status of side concubine Li."

"If you kill Concubine Li, then you will be able to take the place of Concubine Li and survive in the Prince's Mansion. This is the interesting part of the Prince's Mansion. Everyone looks like sisters, but in fact they use each other's tricks or blatantly. Maybe you are still sitting in the position of concubine today, but tomorrow the position of concubine will be replaced by your good sister?"

Telling these things in detail was an explanation for Shang Kelan. At the end, Hua Ling said with some emotion: "The law of the jungle is not only the law of survival outside, but also the iron law of the old and new changes in the Prince's Mansion."

"We are like His Highness's playthings. He used this method to get rid of the women in the backyard. After all, many of these women were sent by high-ranking officials and high-ranking concubines. He couldn't do it. Naturally, he had to find a willing replacement." He does."

Suddenly, she paused, turned to look at Shang Kelan, and said meaningfully: "So, you just said in the Rongyuan Hall that you are only temporarily staying in the Prince's Mansion is actually very ridiculous, because the Prince's Mansion has never had any guests. , Your Highness has always been withdrawn, never interacts with anyone, and will never have any guests."

"Even if there are guests living in the Prince's Mansion, they will not be allowed to live in the backyard. I don't know whether to say that you are naive or that you underestimated the Second Highness."

As soon as these words came out, Shang Kelan's mind flashed through the appearance of those servants who saw their master fell into the lotus pond but could not save him, as well as her own performance in Rongyuan Hall, and Li Fangfei's unclear meaning at that time. smile.

It turned out that before she knew it, she had already fallen into the mud of the back house, and was treated as a joke.

And she still didn't know it, trying to pretend to be a guest, so Hua Ling, who knew all this, would show her a smile that was not a smile?
Shang Kelan's eyes flickered slightly, she couldn't help stopping, and looked back at Hualing: "According to Madam, have you not left the Prince's Mansion for a long time? Or, since the woman in the backyard came in, no one You can be one step away from the Prince's Mansion, and so is Concubine Li."

After Cai Hua'e's death, Hua Ling no longer had a cold and silent appearance. Instead, she became much more active. Although her voice was neither fast nor slow, it could be seen that she was a talkative person.

Regarding Shang Kelan's question, she just nodded lightly, with a smile in her tone: "Well, as far as I know, none of the women who have entered this back house have ever gone out again, but it can be seen , you are different from us women in the back house, if you want to escape, I can help you."

Her tone was normal, as if she was talking about something as simple as eating and drinking.

The expression on Shang Kelan's face sank, she frowned slightly, and looked at Hua Ling: "I don't think I have what you want, why did you help me?"

Judging from what Hua Ling said just now, it is enough to show that she is not a kind person. After all, she is familiar with the survival rules of the prince's mansion.

Unless, she has some other purpose.

Sure enough, as soon as Shang Kelan finished speaking, Hua Ling smiled and stopped together with her. Her slender fingers gently lifted her jaw, and her bright and moist nails slowly sank into her flesh, similar to Li before. The marks left by the side concubine on her face overlapped.

Although Hua Ling didn't use any force, such a frivolous act still made her feel a little uncomfortable.

After looking at Shang Kelan with cold eyes for a while, Hua Ling quietly approached her ear, and said in a low voice, "I just want to see if people who are not from this backyard can get out of this backyard."

She didn't seem to speak slowly, but in fact she quickly pulled away from Shang Kelan, smiled and said to him: "Besides, you are very different from us. You know why these servants didn't follow after Hua'e died. you?"

This kind of feeling that other people know everything better than me, but I don't know anything is really weak and annoying. Shang Kelan has a feeling of being led by the nose.

Suddenly, she frowned and said nothing.

Hua Ling continued to explain: "Because His Highness ordered you to come over and steward Renhe to take care of you, but steward Renhe didn't arrange servants for you, so in this back house, you are destined to live alone and no one will come help you."

As soon as these words came out, for a moment, Shang Kelan almost doubted whether this Hua Ling was sent by Wei Jin to get close to him on purpose.

Otherwise, why did she tell herself so much?Is it really just her temporary interest?

Before Shang Kelan could speak again, Hua Ling took a deep look at her, and then passed her by as if nothing had happened.

It's just that when the two passed by, Hua Ling left a sentence: "Tomorrow Rong Yuan Tang, you sit with me."

The words were so soft that she hardly saw her lips move. If Shang Kelan wasn't close, she wouldn't even be able to hear the voice.

By the time Shang Kelan realized it, Hua Ling had already left here with a large group of servants.

Suddenly, Shang Kelan narrowed her eyes slightly, stood where she was and watched her leave, and then, she glanced thoughtfully in the direction of the lotus pond.

There, a person who just died was buried there. I don't know if Huae's body will be the same as Wan'er after being discovered. In the end, there is only a broken mat wrapped and thrown to the mass grave?
Shang Kelan shook her head, looked away from the pool, and walked towards Ting Yuyuan instead.

No matter how true or false what Hua Ling just said to her, she couldn't believe it all. The woman could have easily rescued Hua'e, but she didn't, but let Hua'e drown in the pool.

This Hua Ling is very dangerous, she approached her purposefully, but right now, she can only get information about how to escape from the Prince's Mansion from Hua Ling, and she has to deal with Hua Ling carefully.

However, looking at the appearance of Hua'e, Hua Ling, and other concubines, they seemed to be secretive towards Concubine Li, and they were very scrupulous. It can be seen that Concubine Li is different from these concubines in the Prince's Mansion.

Could it be that she has the power of life and death over the concubines?
The more I thought about it, the more complicated it became. Shang Kelan shook her head, not letting herself get bogged down, and went back to Ting Yuyuan.
