The whole room is made of cyan hemp stone, about five zhang long and more than three zhang wide, and there are two large braziers next to it, which illuminate the small secret room transparently, and the wooden shelves next to the secret room are full of shocking torture instruments, and Shen Xinyue even saw some torture instruments with mottled bloodstains.

"Lord Wang." As soon as the guard entered the door, he let go of Shen Xinyue's hand, and then respectfully saluted a man with his back to them, but the man didn't speak, just raised his hand, and the guard obediently withdrew.

Lord Wang? Which Lord Wang, she doesn't know anyone surnamed Wang in her memory, what does this old thing want to do?

"The old minister Shangshu Wang Hongliang has seen Concubine Yue." The middle-aged man with his back to Shen Xinyue suddenly turned around and saluted Shen Xinyue, making Shen Xinyue, who was still worried just now, look confused.

What's the situation, the peak loop?

But she didn't seem to know the man in front of her, could it be that he was the old department of the cheap daddy, and he was here to save her?

Of course, there is a reason why Shen Xinyue is so suspicious, after Shen Tao was beheaded by Wumen, there was an old ministry that came to save Shen Xinyue, but in the end, it failed, and a cadre died in the hands of the emperor.

"Who the hell are you?" Regarding Wang Hongliang's attitude, Shen Xinyue still remained nervous.

People are separated from their stomachs, who knows if this man really wants to save her, or under the guise of saving people, he came to take her life, she can't take it lightly.

"The old minister was ordered by the emperor to discuss with Concubine Yue." After Wang Hongliang finished speaking, he was worried that Shen Xinyue would not believe it, and took out a yellow strip of cloth embroidered with dragon patterns from his cuffs.

This was given to him by the emperor when he left, the purpose was to let Shen Xinyue trust him wholeheartedly and cooperate with him to perform this play well.

"Your Majesty?" Taking the strip of cloth, Shen Xinyue carefully looked at the content written on the strip of cloth, and opened her mouth with some surprise: "Who knows if this is the pit dug by the emperor for the concubine." ”

She and the emperor have met three times, and each time the emperor wears a hat, so far, she doesn't even know what the emperor looks like, why should she believe his words.

Murdering concubines is not a trivial matter, and if she doesn't get it right, her head will move.

"Don't worry, the emperor means to let the concubine pretend to admit it first, and when the emperor finds out the real person behind the scenes, he will definitely return the concubine's innocence." Wang Hongliang explained carefully, for fear that Shen Xinyue would not hear clearly, and thus miss the emperor's major events.

"What if I don't agree." After Shen Xinyue finished speaking, she forcibly returned the yellow cloth to Wang Hongliang.

"This matter is harmless for the concubine, why should the concubine refuse." Wang Hongliang looked at Shen Xinyue puzzled.

For Shen Xinyue, this matter kills two birds with one stone, which can not only shorten the distance with the emperor, but also take the opportunity to eradicate an opponent.

Killing two birds with one stone, he couldn't understand why Shen Xinyue would refuse, and he refused so simply.

"Don't think I don't know, the whole thing was made by you and the emperor."

What kind of international joke did you make her like this, and in the end she still wanted her to help, this kind of dumb eating coptis, she wouldn't be stupid enough to agree.

"......" Hearing Shen Xinyue say this, Wang Hongliang's body was obviously stunned, and then he continued: "Since this is the case, then the old minister will retire first, as for whether the concubine can walk out of here alive, it depends on the creation of the concubine, by the way, Mrs. Hua is the one who entered the palace by General Sima, I don't know if the concubine is sure to keep herself and your little maid." ”

After Wang Hongliang finished speaking, he was ready to leave.

When the emperor discussed with him at that time, he thought of the possibility that Shen Xinyue disagreed, but he didn't take it to heart at that time, thinking that this was a matter of killing two birds with one stone, and Shen Xinyue should agree, but he didn't expect to be really approved by the emperor.

Shen Xinyue not only disagreed, but also refused very simply, so he had to follow what the emperor said, and inform Shen Xinyue of the stakes, as for whether Shen Xinyue would agree, it would have to be left to fate.

"Wait." Sure enough, when Shen Xinyue heard Wang Hongliang say this, she immediately changed her mind: "Let's talk about the details." ”

Devil, is this a threat?

But after thinking about it carefully, what Wang Hongliang said is not unreasonable.

If she doesn't agree today, it will be tantamount to offending Mo Xiuyuan, and the days in the palace will only be more sad in the future, followed by Ah Lian, Ah Lian is just a maidservant, and if she wants Ah Lian's life, it is not easy.

Instead of involving Ah Lian in time, it is better for her to promise Mo Xiuyuan what she said now to stop all the charges, so that even if there is any accident, at least she will save Ah Lian.

After a few minutes of talking, Shen Xinyue roughly understood Mo Xiuyuan's plan, not to mention, it was perfect.

"Okay, then the old minister will retire first." Seeing that Shen Xinyue had agreed, Wang Hongliang was about to leave, but as soon as he took a step on his feet, Shen Xinyue opened his mouth over there, so he had to stop.

"What else does the concubine command?"

"You just go like this, not afraid of the suspicion of people outside." The guard who sent him in just now was obviously not the same as Mo Xiu, and if Wang Hongliang walked out like this, it would definitely be difficult.

"I don't know what the concubine thinks." Hearing Shen Xinyue say this, Wang Hongliang realized that when he discussed with the emperor today, the emperor's plan was all about protecting Shen Xinyue, and he ignored this.

"Use that, hit me a few times." Although she was afraid of pain, if it hurt and could save her life, she could only choose to be beaten: "But you have to be lighter." ”

She really couldn't do it herself, so she had to pick up the leather whip on the wooden shelf and hand it to Wang Hongliang.

"This ......" Wang Hongliang looked embarrassed.

"What is this, do it quickly, save me a while and regret it." If she could, she didn't want to hurt her flesh, wasn't there no way, thinking of this, she continued: "Tap, I only need the whip marks on it, and I'll figure out the rest." ”

If it weren't for the limited conditions here, she wouldn't have to hurt at all, and she would have been able to make realistic wounds by herself, but she only had a few bottles of emergency medicine on her.

"Okay, concubine bear with me." Wang Hongliang raised the leather whip and pulled it down at Shen Xinyue's arm.
