The room was too dark for the two of them to see each other's appearances clearly, only a vague silhouette could be seen, and the woman smiled, "I thought the guards came to collect blood again, child, didn't scare you?"

Although her voice was unpleasant, her tone was quite friendly, and the regret grew a little bolder, took two steps forward, and asked quietly, "Why did they take your blood?"

"Because my blood is worth it." The woman leaned on the soft pillow and replied weakly.

"Is your blood really a medicine?"

"Aang, this girl's blood is worth a lot, otherwise that madman wouldn't have imprisoned me here for so many years."

Years in captivity? Has this woman been in the palace for many years?

It's not important, the important thing is that she seems to have just scolded her father for being a madman, and she can't listen to this!

"My father is not a madman!" The little girl immediately retorted, "My father is the co-lord of the eight cities, and he is the most virtuous king!"

"Father?"

The woman's tone changed, and then there was the sound of chains rattling.

Although Regret couldn't see the woman's expression clearly, she could clearly feel that she was staring at her.

"You're Helian Duel's daughter?"

"Yes...... So what!"

"Get out of here." The woman scolded unceremoniously, "Don't come to get in my way, it's really unlucky!"

The little girl has been holding the moon with stars since she was born, when has she been abused like this, the aggrieved golden beans are about to fall.

No way! She can't cry! Can't let this man see the joke!

Regret sniffed hard, but there was still a cry in her tone, "You...... You are bold! I know that I am a princess, and I dare to talk to this princess like this!"

"For the sake of your little girl's face, this girl is polite enough, if I can see your father, I can't wait to strangle him with the chains in my hands!"

"You...... You ......."

"What are you? Didn't your father tell you that this is a man-eating monster? If you don't go, I'll eat you tonight!"

"You ......"

The little girl was aggrieved and scared, and her feet unconsciously retreated.

"It's been a long time since I've eaten a child, and if you don't leave, you'll have to see your father in my belly."

The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, and finally she couldn't hold it anymore, and she cried out with a "wow" voice.

More than a dozen guards outside the dormitory hurriedly rushed in, the lanterns in their hands illuminated the small dormitory, and when they saw that it was Helian regretting here, they hurriedly coaxed her back.

If there are many people, she will not be afraid, she mustered up the courage to see what the man-eating monster looks like, but when she opened her eyes, she was stunned in place, the monster ...... No, the woman was staring at her dumbfounded.

The little girl looked at her face in a daze, and called out blankly, "Mother...... Back ......"

After Helian regretted being taken back, she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and her mother was still lying in the dormitory at this time.

All she wanted to ask was who the woman was. Why is it exactly the same as the queen mother? Why did my father use her blood as a medicine? Why does she seem to hate her father so much?

But when the father came in a hurry, his expression looked very worried, and after confirming that the little girl was not injured, the father was furious, scolded her fiercely, and warned her not to go to that place again.

She was very aggrieved at the time, obviously her father said that she could play anywhere in this palace, and now she came to scold her, and the little girl didn't care about asking those questions, and after crying for a long time, her father picked her up as usual and whispered softly and coaxed slowly.

As if he was not at ease, he reminded the little girl once again not to approach the man again, and at the same time she noticed that the number of maids sent by her father to take care of her had increased.

There are too many questions in her head, but her father has always refused to answer them, and when he mentions the questions related to the woman, his father will become very fierce.

In order not to make her father angry, she did not mention the man, but every time she saw her mother's face, she remembered the woman.

And when he saw his father draw the woman's blood and feed it to the queen mother, he would feel a chill for no reason.

The more the father hid it, the more curious the little girl became, and she was always looking for a chance to go to the dormitory again, but unfortunately the maid next to her looked at her too closely, and she couldn't find a chance, and finally, Chiyuan fell for the first time of the year......

Every year when the first snow falls, the palace is always very lively, in addition to the father will lead the ministers to worship the wolf king god, will also set up a banquet in the main hall, banquet all the ministers and their daughters, and celebrate with the sky.

At this time, everyone in the palace will be busy, and the old lady in the courtyard has temporarily transferred two maids to the front hall to help, Helian regrets a sly smile, knowing that her opportunity has come.

After making excuses for the maids who were waiting with her, Helian regretted finally came to this dormitory again, and it had been more than half a year since she last saw the woman.

"You're here."

When the woman heard the voice, she turned her head and looked at the little girl quietly, her voice was still hoarse, but it was much friendlier than last time.

And listening to her tone, it was as if I knew she would come.

Regret took two steps forward cautiously, shook the things in her hand, and asked tentatively, "I...... I brought you roast goose, can you not eat me?"

"Hah...... Hahahaha......" The woman suddenly chuckled lowly, "It seems that Helian Duel has protected you very well, otherwise you wouldn't be so easy to deceive."

The little girl's eyes lit up, "So you don't eat people!"

Now she was not afraid, and took a few more steps forward until she could see the woman's face clearly.

She looked at her face carefully and muttered, "Really...... It's too similar."

"Like your mother, isn't she?" The woman was not surprised, and answered.

"You really know my mother!!"

She took a few steps forward, her voice raised with excitement, and the woman made a silent gesture to her, and pointed out to her.

"If they find you, you'll be taken back again."

The little girl hurriedly covered her mouth, and listened to the sound of no footsteps outside with her ears in her ears, before she put her mind at ease.

"I'm hungry." The woman raised her chin and motioned for the little girl to bring the roast goose.

"Oh yes!"

She peeled off the outer layer of oiled paper, tore off a piece of meat and handed it to the woman's lips, "Eat it."

The woman raised her lips and smiled, "Helian never taught you to be wary of others? You're so close to me, I could easily kill you."

"You won't." Regret replied categorically.

"Why?"

Regret thought for a moment, "I don't know, I just think so."

"Hah...... Ignorant child." The woman smiled, leaned forward, opened her lips and just touched the roast goose, only to hear the sound of chains, she raised her hand, and actually strangled the unsuspecting regret tightly in her arms.

"Smack!"

The roast goose fell to the ground and stuck to the ashes, and the neck of the reciprocal child was strangled by chains and could not breathe, and her little hands kept waving in the air for help.

"If I kill you, won't Helian be very sad?" The woman said to herself behind her, "If you could see him heartbroken, it would be ...... I'm looking forward to it......

As she spoke, the strength in her hand was greater, and she didn't expect the woman to kill her, but her mind was blank, and she heard the sound of the patrolling army passing by outside the dormitory, but she couldn't make a sound.

She was getting more and more uncomfortable, her neck hurt as if it was about to break, and she didn't know how long it was, but the woman whispered in her ear, "Damn...... I still can't do it!"

Immediately after that, the body of the regret was loosened, and the whole person fell to the ground, if she would have cried in normal times, but now she only cares about breathing heavily, and she can't cry at all.

", if you fall into my hands again, I'm afraid I won't be so kind."

Regret vaguely heard the woman say this, and after the unbearable dizziness, she raised her head and looked at the one

has the same face as her mother, although she has just done something like that to herself, but for some reason, she is not afraid of her at all......

As if, she was sure that she would not kill herself.

It was rare for the little girl not to cry, she got up from the ground, touched her uncomfortable throat, looked at the roast goose on the ground regretfully, and said, "It's a pity...... I can't eat it."

"Do you have a lot of heel in your head? After coming back from the Hades Palace, you were worried about roasting the goose first?"

The little girl's eyes blinked, "It shouldn't be edible if it hasn't touched the other side on the ground, right?"

As she spoke, she picked up the roast goose, tore off another piece and handed it to the woman's lips, "It's not delicious when it's cold."

"You're really lacking roots."

The woman looked at her with a complicated expression, and after a long stalemate, she still ate the roast goose in the hands of Regret.

The repentant child was sure that the woman would not kill her, and the little girl seemed to retaliate, and asked her, "Didn't your father teach you to be wary of others? You eat my stuff so easily, aren't you afraid that I'll poison it?"

The woman's face was a little surprised, "You little girl, you learn things very quickly, but if you poison me...... I'm afraid your father will be sad for days."

"Are you also my father's wife?" Regret asked, tilting her head.

saw that the woman was suddenly choked and coughed violently, "cough cough...... Put...... cough cough ...... Fart!!"

"Vulgar."

Seeing that she reacted so much, it shouldn't be, "Several of my father's wives are very similar to my mother's queen mother, so I thought you were too."

The woman was relieved and glanced at her remorseful, but for some reason, she frowned and said, "It's disgusting."

She didn't understand, and said, "You look exactly like the queen mother, and you are not a certain lady of your father, so are you the sister of the queen mother?"

She tore off another piece of roast goose, handed it to her lips, watched the expression on the woman's face change, ate the roast goose, and asked, "Is your mother okay?" I haven't seen her in years."

"For as long as I can remember, my mother has been asleep and has never woken up."

Regret sat on the couch and watched the woman's eyes overflow with tears.

"I see...... That's why Helian always draws my blood, to save her life."

"You haven't answered my question yet." She tugged at her sleeve, "Are you the queen mother's sister?"

The woman looked at her, her chapped lips opened, and she seemed to tremble a little, "Your mother is my sister."

"And you're my aunt?!" Regret became closer to her in her heart.

"Then why did Father lock you up? Is your blood any different from that of others?"

Regret's hand rested on the cold chain, and inadvertently, she saw that the woman's wrist had been worn out by the chain.

The woman didn't answer, she raised her hand, gently lifted her chin, and said, "Don't move, let me take a good look at you."
