On the desk in front of him, the tea had already been cold, and the torture instruments within reach were bloodily placed neatly, and the blood flowed down the table legs, diligently.

This kind of solemn and cold scene is not as cold as his cold expression at the moment.

On the ground of the dark prison, there were a few people lying in a low voice, the blood foam in their throats blocked their throats, and they cried out "woo", their limbs were uncoordinated and twisted into strange shapes, looking terrible, and their scattered eyes looked at the majestic Xiao Ci above in horror, as if he was really a hell Yama.

Yan Kuan waited quietly on the side, and the entire Jiufang Residence Secret Prison was sealed, and no wind was revealed.

"Leave you a whole corpse, say!" The low and suppressed voice sounded coldly in the dark prison.

Yan Kuan received the order, lifted a person whose eyes could still turn, and his mouth was closed one by one, and threw it in front of Xiao Ci: "The master asked you for the last time, say!" ”

The man's body was already rotten, as if he had been skinned alive, bloody, his kneecaps had been violently shattered, his lower body was shattered into powder, but his internal organs were still intact.

During these two days in the palace prison, they were subjected to torture that no one could have imagined, and the rumored murderous regent did not give them any chance, and gave them all the torture instruments as if he were venting, during which three former Praetorian Guards died.

To this day, when all of them were about to lose their hold, the poison master of the royal palace forcibly poured poison for them, so that they could not survive and die.

The Praetorian Guard, who could still speak, was like ashes: "Lord Wang...... Give it a good time. ”

Xiao Ci: "Do you think you have the qualifications to negotiate terms with this king." ”

"No, little one...... is begging the prince", the Praetorian Guard spat out a mouthful of blood, echoing the long blood marks dragged over behind him, the smell of blood was so strong, he begged for mercy: "The prince killed us." ”

"Don't worry, this king didn't want to spare your lives", Xiao Ci raised his dark and heavy eyebrows, and his shrugging sword eyebrows were fierce, and he said in a deep voice: "Emperor Xiao Wen left you in the Taihe Hall to protect the emperor, or to prevent this king!" ”

The Praetorian Guard trembled, and if he could still stand up at this moment, he would feel the spasm in his legs, and he must have knelt on the ground.

The regent was really bold, openly calling the name of the first emperor, and there was no respect in his tone.

"The first emperor was a good emperor for the country and the people, as a Praetorian Guard of the previous dynasty, his subordinates naturally had to be loyal to the monarch and protect the country, and the prince knew ......."

A pair of cold eyes became deeper and deeper, staring at the dying Praetorian Guards below, Xiao Ci knew that these people were not as brave and fearless as they appeared on the surface, on the contrary, the peaceful days had been too long, and they were all a group of wine bags and rice bags who were greedy for life and afraid of death.

When you get to this point, you know that there is no way to live, and it is good to be able to suffer less sin.

However, he will not spare these people.

Xiao Ci: "Go on." ”

"Yes, master", Yan Kuan arched his hand, and a few guards next to him immediately dragged the panicked Praetorian Guards down again, and in a moment a new round of torture began, starting from the leg bones, being ...... little by little Broken little by little, only the cry for help echoed in the dark prison, and the miserable cry for help gradually weakened, and slowly returned to calm.

The other party was hurt to death, the pain of broken bones is very bearable, in this long process, they will clearly hear the sound of their bones breaking, and clearly perceive the flesh piercing the skin and piercing the skin, until finally the bones are all broken, the flesh is black, full of blood, and the muscles and bones are separated from the flesh......

One died, and the other came up.

I believe that it won't be long before the few remaining people will all end up in the same way.

The Praetorian Guard had long since been numb and unconscious, but he was forced to witness the death of his companion once again, and he was awakened by a hellish nightmare.

He opened his mouth wide in horror and couldn't speak, Yan Kuan saw this, a basin of salt water was poured on his head, and a heart-rending scream echoed in the dark prison.

"I ...... Saying", after a moment of heavy breathing, the Praetorian Guard finally couldn't stand it anymore, and his angry wails were all broken, and he died on the ground, and said intermittently: "It was the emperor who let ...... Let us protect the emperor, monitor the prince, and protect the emperor's safety. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Ci's face turned gloomy: "You are the last barrier left by Emperor Xiao Wen to the emperor, right?" ”

"Yes", the Praetorian Guard squeezed out a sentence from his muttering throat as if he had lost his breath: "Ask the prince to give me a good time, I will say anything." ”

"Oh", he pulled coldly, and Xiao Ci said calmly: "Go on." ”

"At that time, the emperor was still young, and in order to protect him, the emperor pretended not to like the clever little emperor, and before he died, the emperor left two holy decrees to the emperor to restrain the prince."

"What the emperor has always loved is the emperor, leaving us in the Taihe Hall for many years, and also protecting the emperor in secret, I know this, the prince is clear."

Breathing heavily, Xiao Ci asked, "Where is the holy purpose?" ”

The Praetorian Guard's eyes widened in disbelief: "I don't know. ”

"Kill", Xiao Ci slowly spoke, as if he had ordered the most ordinary thing, and Yan Kuan immediately carried it out.

The smell of blood became heavier, Xiao Ci frowned, and his anger burned uncontrollably.

"Master, you have been in the dark prison for two consecutive days, do you want to ......?"

Running over with a cold eye, Yan Kuan obediently shut up, thinking that when the princess woke up, the master would definitely be able to take care of her body a little more, at least she would take time out of her busy schedule to accompany the princess, who knew that the result seemed to be different from what he expected.

Yan Kuan stayed by the side like a wood, and he really couldn't figure out the key to it.

These people who died in the dark tonight were all the former Praetorian Guards, who had been staying in the palace, and only then did they hear the word "Holy Decree" from his mouth, and Xiao Ci had already settled the long-standing doubts in his heart.

He lowered his eyes with some sneer, he was summoned to the palace two days ago, guessing that it was a marriage with Daqi, Xiao Ci never thought that he would marry Jiang Xue into the mansion, so he naturally rejected Xiao Jingyan in person.

The Qi army threatened with an army of 50,000 and approached the border of Daliang for five miles, Xiao Jingyan, who was still young and unstable in the throne, suddenly became an ant on a hot pot, and his words were sincere and hidden in anger to "request" Xiao Ci's opinion.

Xiao Ci refused on the spot, he knew that Qi Guojun was a person with deep thoughts, and it was impossible to start a war at this time, at most he would scare and scare Xiao Jingyan, but he didn't expect that Xiao Jingyan, who had suppressed his nature, was really a bit of a paper tiger, and he was even more uneasy about Xiao Ci's calmness.

Because now in his eyes, his powerful imperial uncle has long been of the same mind as him, and he covets his throne, so he naturally wishes for him to be good.

Xiao Ci was furious, if he married Jiang Xue at this time, it would be Liang's worry.

Who would have thought that Xiao Jingyan gave Xiao Ci a marriage on the spot, and took out a testament, which was left by the former emperor Xiao Wendi.

In the edict, Xiao Ci must unconditionally obey Xiao Jingyan's invitation.

In this way, Jiang Xue entered the house.

That night, the most elite secret guards of the palace secretly broke into the palace and arrested the former Praetorian Guards hidden in the shadows.

"It turns out that this king is the person in the game", Xiao Ci snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and left, and coldly dropped a sentence: "Deal with it." ”

The guards of the dungeon immediately cleaned up the bloody battlefield.

Out of the dark prison, it was getting late, Xiao Ci stood not far from the main house and looked at the flickering candles inside, standing for a long time, his frowning eyebrows were gentle, and his thick worry overflowed, suppressing the emotions gushing out.

Yan Kuanhou was beside him and whispered: "Master, it seems that the princess has not rested yet, so the master should go in." ”

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ci condensed: "You talk too much, go down and get the punishment yourself." ”

"Yes", knowing that the master was in a bad mood, it could be said that it was the worst in more than ten years, at least when he supported Xiao Jingyan to fight for the throne, he had never seen the master so heavy.

Yan Kuan retreated in a gray manner.

Xiao Ci was blowing a cool breeze on the spot, blowing away the bloody breath of his body, and his fingers were cold, and after about half a pillar of incense, he saw that the candle flame facing each other was extinguished, and every time at this time, Mu An was going to sleep.

The night was terrible, cool and quiet, and he muttered for a long time, facing the dim main house, Xiao Ci said lightly and apologetically: "This time, it is this king who has affected you." ”

Yes, he has been a victim of Muan.

He thought that his monstrous power was fearless, but he didn't understand, it was when he was alone, he was not afraid of anything, even if it was rebellion.

But now, there is someone in his heart, and the original wanton arrogance was overthrown by him overnight, Mu An told him at the beginning that "merit is high and the master is the master" is reasonable, but he doesn't believe it.

The entire Daliang, without the person he was afraid of, everything he did had a clear conscience, including everything about Xiao Jingyan.

But now, he realizes that everything is wrong. With the infamy of the world on his back, he single-handedly eliminated traitors, killed traitors, and supported the young Xiao Jingyan to ascend to the throne.

Because he knows that in the entire royal family, only Xiao Jingyan once had the world in mind, listened carefully to his Chunchun teachings, and trusted him unconditionally, Emperor Xiao Wen never liked Xiao Jingyan, spoiled other princes, ignored Xiao Jingyan, and even wanted to get rid of him quickly.

It was Xiao Ci who rescued the young Xiao Jingyan from the Ghost Gate.

Who would have thought that this was all a well-planned drama, all for him to see, for the regent who leaned towards the government and the opposition.

Emperor Xiao Wendi's favorite heir at the beginning was the young Xiao Jingyan, but in this deep palace of intrigue and intriguery, the young prince did not live long, I don't know when Xiao Jingyan began to hide, and he hid for ten years.

And Xiao Ci also stupidly protected him for ten years.

Now the little emperor who can't hold back has grown up, his wings are stiff, and he is finally going to do something to him.

Xiao Ci has always been a stepping stone on Xiao Jingyan's growth road, clearing all obstacles for him, carrying a murderous reputation on his back, arbitrary, brutal and ruthless, killing people like hemp, and drinking blood......

Before his death, Emperor Xiao Wen left two edicts to Xiao Jingyan, and there is no doubt that these two edicts were used to deal with Xiao Ci.

Now that one has been used by Xiao Jingyan, Xiao Ci wants to know, what is the other one?

Is it for him to be charged with something, and when the time comes, kill him?
