Chapter 440: The Woman in the Basement
Mr. Han looked at Su Yuchen's dark eyes, and every hair on his body stood up.
As soon as these words came out, Ding Xiang was stunned!
Miss Jiang is pregnant with the prince's child!
This...... It's just ......
The most important thing is that Mr. Han seems to have known about it for a long time, but he didn't tell the prince!
Ding Xiang silently retreated, retreated again, and silently mourned for Mr. Han in his heart.
Mr. Han swallowed his saliva with difficulty, his whole body exuded the horror of his good prescription, his brain was blank, he only looked at Su Yuchen who was getting closer, and felt that it was difficult to breathe!
A quarter of an hour later......
Inside the dungeon torture chamber of the Cham Palace.
"Ah!!h
"Ahahahaha, wow! The prince spares his life, the prince spares his life......"
In the gloomy dungeon, Mr. Han was tied to a cross stake on all sides, and dozens of poisonous snakes spitting snake hyacinth were coiled at his feet, slowly approaching him.
Don't look at Mr. Han's medical skills are good, and his kung fu is not bad, but he is most afraid of these boneless things.
"Lord Wang, Miss Jiang was also annoyed when she saw the prince and Miss Queling, you and me, and threatened the fetus in the womb, asking me not to tell this matter, Lord Wang, I was wrong......" Mr. Han's throat was hoarse, and he swore that after this experience, he must go back to the mountains, and the companion is like a tiger, it is terrible!
The green tendons in front of Su Yuchen's forehead loomed. "When's it!"
"That's it, it was on the second day of the prince's detoxification, I, I found it when I diagnosed Miss Jiang's pulse!"
"Bang!"
Su Yuchen slammed his palm on the wall of punishment, and Mr. Han felt that the floor of the torture room shook.
"Dingxiang, get ready to go down, this king is going to Nayu." He's going to get her back himself!
"The prince ......" Ding Xiang hesitated, after all, the emperor can't do without the prince now, if the prince leaves Bianjing suddenly, I'm afraid it will be the emperor's side......
"You take people south to the town customs to suppress bandits."
Ding Xiang paused and knew what Su Yuchen meant, in the past two days, there happened to be an excerpt handed over to the town customs, saying that the town customs has recently appeared frequently robbing robbers, and the people complained, if Su Yuchen personally took the soldiers and horses to suppress the bandits, it is not impossible.
"Yes, my subordinates understand."
"Lord Wang, Lord Wang, Miss Jiang is pregnant, but I don't know what happened to the Gu worms in her body......" Mr. Han saw that Su Yuchen was leaving, and hurriedly shouted loudly, if he left like this, he wouldn't even want to leave this place until he came back, thinking about it would make him feel cold!
Su Yuchen's footsteps paused slightly, and he glanced at him coldly. "Take him with you."
"Yes."
Mr. Han exhaled sharply, feeling really ...... Close call!
Miss Jiang, you really killed me!
"Ha Qiu, Ha Qiu Ha Qiu!"
Jiang Yingxue sneezed several times in a row and sat up from the wooden bed where her bones were uncomfortable.
She rubbed her arm, this bitter cold palace is really cold as its name suggests.
She looked out the window, and the sky was already sinking, and because there were no lights, the room was pitch black and almost invisible.
She got out of bed, opened the door and walked out, and when she walked to the yard, she heard some noise in the backyard, and she walked over to see that someone was in a small room in the innermost part of the backyard, and there was a faint fire coming out of the house.
As soon as she got closer, she could smell the smoke of burning firewood, which was a small kitchen, and Huahua, dressed in palace clothes, was sitting on a small stool with one missing foot in the honor guard to light the fire.
Hearing the movement, Flowey turned her eyes to look at her. "Woke up hastily."
Jiang Yingxue was a little surprised to see that there was no longer a sad look on her face, but she didn't show it on her face, and walked into the small kitchen and put her hand on the stove to warm her hands.
"Where did you get the Mars to ignite?"
They were nothing when they came in.
Huahua looked down and smiled a little embarrassed when she heard this. "Let Cao Cao see a smile, I was poor since I was a child, when I was a child, there was no food at home, I sneaked to the mountains to catch pheasants and hares, when I was a child, I was not sensible, so I directly plucked the feathers on the mountain and roasted and ate, since then, I have been used to carrying fire folds on my body."
"Well, that's a good habit."
"Someone brought dinner while you were sleeping, I fetched some water from the well and it was boiled quickly, I see there are still some bowls in this small stove, and you can drink some hot water to warm up in a while."
Jiang Yingxue looked up by the firelight and saw a food box on the stove, she opened it and saw four hard steamed buns inside.
Jiang Yingxue is delicious, not to mention a little bit of this kind of food, she can't be satisfied at all, but she has to stay up for a while late at night, so she washed a bowl and soaked the steamed buns in water to warm her stomach.
It is also getting deeper, and the night of the Bitter Cold Palace is frighteningly quiet, and this place, even the guards patrolling the palace at night are reluctant to go this way.
The occasional "cooing" cry in the yard is very infiltrating, but fortunately, Huahua is not a pampered Miss Jiao, and she has no reaction to such an environment.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, Jiang Yingxue, who was lying on the outside of the bed, slowly opened her eyes, turned around, and looked at Huahua who was breathing evenly by the faint moonlight, she took out a porcelain bottle from her body and put it on the tip of her nose, but for a moment, Huahua slept more deeply than just now.
Jiang Yingxue turned over, sat up, opened the door and walked out, a black figure was already waiting outside the door.
"Let's go."
Xuanye nodded, and took Jiang Yingxue out of the Bitter Cold Palace.
The speed of the two of them is extremely fast, originally this area is in the middle of nowhere, and there are usually few people coming, and it is even more difficult for anyone to find their whereabouts at this time.
A quarter of an hour later, Xuanye took Jiang Yingxue to a palace.
If the Bitter Cold Palace is a palace that has been abandoned for nearly ten years, then no one has been here for at least decades, and the two of them brought up a puff of dust as soon as their feet landed.
"This is the place?"
"Yes, my subordinates have already discovered that Nayu Monarch has been here more than three times."
Because he was afraid of being discovered by Bai Linghan, Xuan Ye didn't dare to follow too closely, even if he went in alone to investigate afterwards, but he didn't find anything unusual.
"Go in and have a look."
Xuanye walked ahead, pushed open the door of the main hall, and the friction sound of the old wooden door aroused goosebumps.
Xuanye touched the table and found a candle to light it, and the hall was instantly illuminated by a faint candlelight.
Jiang Yingxue looked around the main hall, this palace is also in the harem, so the furnishings are no different from the Bitter Cold Palace, but the difference is that even if this palace has been abandoned for many years, she can still see that the furniture in the palace is made of fine pear blossom wood.
She reached out and wiped it in front of the table, the dust on the table was surprisingly small, could someone come to the house from time to time to clean it?
"Can you see which room he entered?"
Genya shook his head. "He was very vigilant, and his subordinates were afraid that he would not dare to follow too closely after following him outside the courtyard, and when he entered the house, he disappeared, but once his subordinates saw him walking out of this room."
"You've searched every room here and found nothing out of the ordinary?"
Xuanye shook his head again.
Xuanye is a very meticulous person, Jiang Yingxue believes that he must have checked all the places that should be checked, and it is strange to say that he still hasn't found anything.
Could it be that Bai Linghan just came here to see things and think about things and wipe the tables and benches?
Even if that's the case, you don't need to disguise yourself as a little eunuch in the middle of the night.
"You go to another house, I'll go check it out in the backyard."
"Yes."
Jiang Yingxue took a candle and walked towards the backyard.
Compared with the front yard of the palace, this backyard is more cold and empty, like the bitter cold palace, there is also a dry well on the right hand side of the backyard, and there is nothing else to see in the whole backyard, except for a utility room and a stove room.
But whether it is the utility room or the stove room, there is not half a footprint in it, and it is impossible for Bai Linghan not to leave any traces no matter how high his light work is.
So she walked directly to the well, the wellhead was built with a half-meter-high stone fence, Jiang Yingxue took a candle and shone it into the well, but the light of the candle was limited, and she couldn't see the situation under the well at once.
She got up, found a rock and threw it in.
"Snap"
It's the sound of stones hitting the ground, it's a dry well.
Jiang Yingxue called Xuanye.
"There's probably something wrong with this dry well, let's go down and take a look."
"Let's let my subordinates go down."
"Okay, be careful yourself." Jiang Yingxue cares about the child in her womb in the end, this wellhead is small, if there is really any danger, the two of them will not be able to move, but they will become a burden to the other party.
Xuanye bit the candle and flew into the well, and after he went down, Jiang Yingxue saw the situation below clearly by the candlelight he brought down.
The well was seven or eight meters deep, and after the night settled, I looked around the well and finally found a loose mechanism at my feet.
"There's a mechanism." Genya observed the mechanism, propped his feet on the stone wall, and then pressed the mechanism hard.
A "boom" was heard, and the stone wall opposite him rose up, revealing a door that could accommodate one person through.
Xuanye held his breath and walked towards the stone gate, and Jiang Yingxue above could only wait for him to return from his investigation.
During this period, Jiang Yingxue had been vigilantly observing the situation around her, and it was about two quarters of an hour before Xuanye appeared at the bottom of the well again.
"How's it going, what's going on inside?"
"There's a guy in there."
"Anyone?"
Xuanye was able to come out unscathed, indicating that there should be no mechanism below, Jiang Yingxue tied it around his waist and followed the rest to the bottom of the well.
"Take me inside."
It was a very narrow stone path, and the underground river here had probably been diverted elsewhere a long time ago, so it was quite dry, about two meters high and one meter wide, and at the end of the tunnel was a stone door that had been opened.
The two of them walked into the stone gate, and when they walked down more than a dozen steps, their eyes instantly became bright......
Inside is a richly decorated women's boudoir, filled with pearl agate and night pearls for lighting.
And in these ornate decorations sat a woman in a white dress......
