Chapter 25: The Trap of Harm

"Queen. Just as Zhuang Meiyan was about to enter the tent, Su Mya suddenly whispered to her behind her, and the child hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't hate you anymore." ”

With that, as if she were shy, she ran down the gap between the tents without a trace.

Zhuang Meiyan was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at the direction where the little princess disappeared, her eyes were full of love and pity. After all, it's just a child, and the words that come out are so childish, Zhuang Meiyan Wei shook her head with a smile, and turned around and walked into the tent.

Sure enough, there was no one in the tent, there was no furnishings in it, only an open hole, and below the hole was a row of stone steps, Zhuang Meiyan went down the steps, the steps were very steep, and after turning a corner, he walked several steps, and finally fell into the clearing. Then there was the long hallway, the steps and the walls of the corridor were lit with oil lamps that were not very bright, and the whole space took on a suffocating yellow, and the smell was cloudy and dull, mixed with the smell of old carrion and blood, which cannot be described in words.

Zhuang Meiyan slowly breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed the urge to vomit, and slowly walked forward along the corridor. It was evident that there were cell cells, some of which were empty, and some of which seemed to have a body called "Human", and the prisoners were indifferent to her presence - or had no strength or courage to look at her, they were left with only the despair of waiting for death and being tortured.

Zhuang Meiyan looked carefully from cell to cell, but did not find Jiang Yutang and Xue Kite's cousin, frowning slightly. She had reached the end of the corridor, leaving only the innermost door unchecked, and the rest of the cells were surrounded by iron bars, through which she could see through the gaps in the bars, but this one was closed with a heavy, thick iron door, leaving no gaps.

The iron door was closed, Zhuang Meiyan's heart immediately hung up, and she mustered up the courage to step forward and hold the handle of the iron door. The iron door is hidden, although the door shaft is not very flexible, but it can still be pushed open, Zhuang Meiyan struggled with two hands to barely open the iron door a small crack. Although she was already a little mentally prepared after listening to Sumiya's description, she was still surprised when she saw the situation behind the iron gate.

This is a torture room, the walls are hung with all kinds of terrible torture instruments, the wall opposite the iron door is shackled with a man, his long hair is hanging low to cover his face, Zhuang Meiyan saw his familiar figure and the blue clothes he was wearing, and his heart suddenly tightened.

Regardless of her pregnancy and bulky body, she trotted quickly to Jiang Yutang's side, looking at him with distress and scars. The locked shackles made Zhuang Meiyan a little disappointed, without the key, she was a weak woman who had no ability to rescue Jiang Yutang at all, she could only carefully hold up Jiang Yutang's face and call him softly.

"Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang. ”

Jiang Yutang had already passed out, hearing her repeated calls, his closed eyes slowly opened, looking at Zhuang Meiyan weakly, his eyes were confused, obviously the torture had exceeded the limit of his body, his spirit had begun to become confused, his godless eyes had been looking at Zhuang Meiyan, but his expression was still dull, even with a hint of hostility.

"I ...... I won't say, I don't know, what am I ...... I don't know. ”

His face was distorted, and saying these words made him feel hard and painful, but he gritted his teeth and endured the torture from **.

"I absolutely ...... I won't let you take advantage of it, I'm going to protect her...... I've ...... I've already hurt her once, ...... There will never be a second time. ”

His body was extremely weak, and struggling to say these words was already the maximum limit for him, and he was gasping for breath, and he could faint again at any moment.

Zhuang Meiyan looked at Jiang Yutang lovingly, she felt very sad in her heart, she didn't know how to help him, what he said made her even more guilty - if it wasn't for wanting to protect her, maybe this man wouldn't have to suffer this kind of torture.

Zhuang Meiyan saw that Jiang Yutang's mind was already blurred, and hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "Brother Jiang, wake up, it's me! ”

The name "Charming Face" obviously awakened part of Jiang Yutang's senses, he reluctantly raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him carefully, and finally showed a smile, the smile hurt the wound on his body, he quickly frowned, and endured it silently.

"Brother Jiang, I, I will find a way to save you. Zhuang Meiyan watched Jiang Yutang suffer, but there was really nothing she could do at the moment, so she had to comfort him.

"If you hold on a little longer, I'll go to the lord of the country. Zhuang Meiyan felt that only Xiao Xuanchen could rescue Jiang Yutang, and without further ado, he had to hurry up and beg him.

"Charm...... Glamour. Jiang Yutang grinned again, frowning painfully as he laughed, this expression made people look extremely uncomfortable.

"Glamorous, Lord Wang...... Let me...... Brought you a letter, right ....... Jiang Yutang said in a very low voice: "It's in my medicine box, there is a yellow medicine bottle at the bottom of the medicine box, and the letter is hidden there, and the prince said...... You, you've suffered...... Take good care of your children. ”

He gritted his teeth and finished all this large paragraph in one breath, he was so tired that he was panting, and the pain all over his body tortured him into a cold sweat, and finally the man fainted.

"Brother Jiang, Brother Jiang. Zhuang Meiyan shouted eagerly. Jiang Yutang's words just now were even more clueless, why did Duanmu Hao give her a letter for no reason? And why did he mysteriously not want others to know? The last sentence was even more unpredictable about what he meant.

But no matter how anxiously Zhuang Meiyan shouted, Jiang Yutang still hung his head and did not react, and at this time, a woman's delicate laughter suddenly came from the quiet torture room.

He just fainted, and the queen was relieved that he could not die for the time being. ”

Such a familiar and calm tone made Zhuang Meiyan's face fade in an instant, and even if she turned her back, she could feel the other party's almost arrogant pride. Turned around calmly, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth, Zhuang Meiyan did not panic at all, she was very confident, she was the queen of Wuyangguo, and there was no place in Wuyangguo that she could not enter.

"Is the queen looking for this?" said Yeluyan, ostentatiously holding up a yellow porcelain vase and shaking it gently.

Zhuang Meiyan raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Why did you imprison my guest? and tortured him, did you want to torture him into a confession to confess some charges that didn't exist at all?"

Yeluyan laughed lightly and said slowly, "Queen, are you afraid?"

Zhuang Meiyan sneered and said, "So, are you afraid?"

Ye Luyan raised her eyebrows, her eyes sparkling, revealing her questioning question.

"What if that letter doesn't prove anything?

Ye Luyan was still smiling, there was a hint of mockery in her smile, she held the bottle and approached step by step, carefully approaching Zhuang Meiyan's earlobe, and said in a very low voice: "I don't need to prove anything." ”

At the moment when the figures were staggered, Zhuang Meiyan's eyes passed through the door of the torture room, and from this position, he could see the other end of the corridor, where a familiar figure was slowly walking forward, and Zhuang Meiyan's heart suddenly contracted.

It was clearly a man's figure, with a nimble back with his hands cut off, a wide white robe, and a wolf head embroidered on the hem of the robe. Everything is still so familiar, separated by a space of dozens of meters, his breathing is clearly discernible, calm and powerful, and there is that majestic kingly aura, everything is no different from when I usually see him, but it seems that there is something more, or something missing.

Zhuang Meiyan subconsciously pinched his knuckles and clenched them together. Countless thoughts flashed through Zhuang Meiyan's mind, but she didn't grasp any useful information, she obviously had a lot of things to ask him, and finally they all turned into a blank in her mind. The air seemed to condense, more silent than death, and even time seemed to stand still, only Yeluyan, who was standing beside her, showed herself a quiet smile, a smile that regarded herself as a victor.

However, at this time, Zhuang Meiyan had no time to care about these details, in her eyes and heart, everything around her suddenly ceased to exist, in this world, all the enemies gathered together to attack her, insult her, threaten her, and could not withstand this moment. She knew that she must not show a flustered look, let alone a little cowardice in this woman.

But her heart was in turmoil, completely chaotic.

Don't go! Don't go! Don't go!

These thoughts came to her mind one by one, but they just couldn't jump out of her throat. Her breathing became more and more rapid, her fists clenched tightly, her nails sinking into the flesh of her palms, but she didn't notice it, Zhuang Meiyan's reaction fell into Ye Luyan's eyes, and she naturally showed a satisfied smile - this situation was almost no different from what she expected.

Xiao Xuanchen's figure finally disappeared at the end of the corridor, he didn't stop, but stepped directly on the steps around the corner, from beginning to end, he didn't even look back. Zhuang Meiyan felt a sense of panic that she had never felt before, cold and cold to the bone, and every trace of air in the dark cage gave her this illusion. She thought, this is an illusion, it is an illusion, winter has not yet come, it will not be so cold, so cold that people can't help but want to shiver, want to shiver, and even want to cry loudly, it shouldn't be like this, it really shouldn't be like this.

Zhuang Meiyan stumbled along the dimly lit corridor illuminated by oil lamps, she didn't seem to be able to see the road in front of her clearly, and almost fell to the ground several times, and finally could only hold on to the wall and grope her way forward. She had wide eyes, but she didn't seem to be able to see everything in front of her, the man just turned silently from the corner, but she felt as if a world had disappeared from front of her.

The light at the staircase made her a little uncomfortable, and she lifted her wide sleeved robe to block the overwhelming light, and it took a long time for her to get used to the glare of the light, and she flicked her sleeves and looked up.

The tall figure of the man stood at the top of the steps, and he quietly looked down at her below, but in this backlit state, she could not see the other person's expression clearly. Zhuang Meiyan felt so tired, she really wanted to know, at this moment, would that man stretch out a warm hand to her?
