Chapter Twenty-Seven: The King and the Concubine

Drama of the Emperor • Chapter 27 • The King and the Concubine

Zhuge Xi went to the prison, and there was a lot of dust on the desk here, Zhuge Xi looked at these things that had not been used for a long time with disgust, and the guards here were also very lazy, and they dozed off.

Zhuge Xi sighed lightly and walked towards the place where Ma Shenglin was trapped. Although Ma Shenglin was embarrassed, her face was still flowery. Zhuge Xi looked at it and was about to open the cell door and go in.

"Don't rush in, Ma Shenglin's martial arts are still dangerous." Feng Jian coldly grabbed Zhuge Xi. Zhuge Xi was startled, and was about to shake off his hand, but was pulled aside by Feng Jian.

"You get up, I'll come." Feng Jian kicked open the cell door with an expressionless face.

"Huh...... What are you waiting for...... I have already stated that I will not say any clues about King Haova. Ma Shenglin looked up at Feng Jian and Zhuge Xi, and smiled coldly.

"No, no, no, we're not here for this." Zhuge Xi raised his eyebrows and stepped forward, Feng Jian was about to say something, but when he saw Zhuge Xi's eyes cold, he stopped thinking about stopping him.

"Why did the plan of the palace you used at that time go down, do you know the secret?" Zhuge Xi was not vigilant at all, squatted down in front of Ma Shenglin, and watched Ma Shenglin's facial changes.

"Heh, do you need to ask me? Isn't Lu Lu your comrade? Ma Shenglin sneered.

"If that's what you think, you're very wrong." Zhuge Xi's smile has an innate charm, which makes people feel relieved and trusting, but it also has a cunning atmosphere. Feng Jian didn't interject, and quietly watched the drama that Zhuge Xi was about to stage.

"Could it be that it's not Lu Lu's understanding?" Ma Shenglin's tone was full of doubt.

"Poor people who are kept in the dark. Forget it, it's better to let you die in vain. Zhuge Xi laughed and stood up and was about to go out, Feng Jian was puzzled, so he had to follow.

"Wait! What did the general tell him? Please tell me! Ma Shenglin suddenly shouted.

Feng Jian frowned slightly, and said in his heart that there was nothing wrong with Zhuge Xi's agitation method, and Ma Shenglin really fell into the scheme. The corners of Zhuge Xi's mouth rose slightly, but the smile was fleeting. Zhuge Xi slowly turned around and looked at Ma Shenglin with a condescending look.

"General Zhuge ! What the hell are you talking about? There was a kind of anxiety on Ma Shenglin's face.

"King Haova only has an interest in you, you know that." Zhuge Xi said leisurely.

"So what." Ma Shenglin smiled bitterly, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.

"Because of this, you have lost the value of this chess piece, so King Haofa should borrow a knife to kill people and find an excuse to get rid of you." Feng Jian interjected beside him.

Zhuge Xi looked back at Feng Jian, who had a solemn expression, and seemed to be a little unhappy because he interrupted his speech, Feng Jian stood helplessly behind.

Ma Shenglin didn't say anything, just secretly bit her lower lip and was silent.

"Oh, the king's mind is just a trick, King Haofa has only used it from beginning to end, and has never had feelings." What Zhuge Xi said, just like the cold wind, freezes everything.

"If you let go now, maybe you won't end up with a broken heart and death."

Ma Shenglin slowly raised her head, and the pair of deep and confident eyes that had stood beside King Haofa slowly disappeared, leaving only despair and helplessness. In the end, Ma Shenglin never shed a single tear, but the eyes that were once as beautiful as sea water could never go back, and the light, along with the heart, died together.

"You've won." Ma Shenglin's words could not hear emotion, "But you wait, you also lost." The corners of Ma Shenglin's mouth were raised hideously, and her messy hair made her look like a terrifying demon.

In the next second, the smile faded, the blood in his mouth did not stop, and the broken tongue fell to the ground.

In mid-April of that year, Ma Shenglin committed suicide in Kyoto by biting her tongue.
