CHAPTER IX

Li Xinghe took advantage of Wei Xianrong's cover to look at the rockery, wanting to see the doorway that opened the private prison.

"Do you see the depression next to the rockery, press it and turn it left and right, there will be unexpected gains." Wei Xianrong saw that Li Xinghe was distressed by this, and whispered.

There is no other way, every second of delay Xianghe in the danger inside, Li Xinghe pretended to fall next to the rockery, but his left hand pressed the groove, and sure enough, the rockery opened a path.

When the emperor heard the voice behind him, he also turned his head, and saw Li Xinghe sitting next to the rockery, and there was a secret passage in front of him!

Li Xinghe stood up, pretending to look at the emperor with a frightened face, and was about to say something, but was interrupted by the emperor's silence, and the little eunuch on the side was even more frightened when he saw this.

The emperor was the first to step into the dungeon, and everyone followed, the dark and damp environment made Li Xinghe a little breathless, and the deeper he went, the stronger the smell of blood became.

The screams came and went, Li Xinghe's heart couldn't help but sink a little, she didn't dare to imagine what kind of punishment Xianghe would receive here.

It was a place forgotten and spurned, separated by a wall, stark irony, and the dungeon was filled with undried blood, mixed with the smell of decay, disgusting.

In the depths of the dungeon, a few oil lamps were lit, and I saw the prince in a bright yellow python robe, holding a whip and constantly smoking a eunuch who had long been out of breath.

He looked crazy, his eyes were red, his hands were stained with blood, and even the python robe, which symbolized imperial power, had traces of blood. Once the prince was benevolent and filial on the outside, but he was careless on the inside, and his hands were bloody, what an irony.

Li Chengren heard the sparse footsteps, raised his head, and saw that the person who came was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and he didn't dare to continue to look at his expression.

With a snap, the whip collided with the ground and made a crisp sound, Li Chengren seemed to come back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, kicked the corpse in front of him, and knelt in front of the emperor with a rolling belt, crying bitterly, and the two of them were judged before.

Li Xinghe just felt a little chilling, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and suddenly there was heat in his palm, Li Xinghe turned his head and saw that it was Wei Xianrong, and the heat kept coming from his palm, and Li Xinghe's sudden beating heart gradually eased.

"Father, the son is wrong, the son will never dare in the future, really, the son is ......"

Li Chengren grabbed the corner of the emperor's clothes, spoke incoherently, and his logic was a little confused.

The emperor closed his eyes tightly, bent down and broke Li Chengren's fingers little by little, he couldn't believe that the prince was such a cruel person.

But the surrounding scenes reminded him all the time that all this was true, how could the prince who he personally led to teach him the art of the emperor grow like this.

Li Jun's heart ached for a while, smelling the smell of blood in the air, Li Jun only felt that the qi and blood were surging upward, and he couldn't suppress it.

Wow, a mouthful of blood spurted out, the emperor covered his chest with his left hand, and supported the wall with his right hand to not fall.

Li Xinghe hurriedly went to help the emperor out, and after helping the emperor to the imperial chariot, he sent a little eunuch to the imperial hospital to invite the imperial doctor to the Taiji Palace, and then hurriedly returned to the dungeon, and did not find Xianghe after looking around, Li Xinghe got up in a hurry, grabbed the prince's collar, and questioned him loudly,

"What about that palace maid in Chongming Palace, where is she, where did you get her for me."

Li Chengren stood up, the laughter from his throat was hoarse, echoing in the silent dungeon, his eyes were bloodshot, and the corners of his mouth slowly hooked up a bloodthirsty arc, walking step by step, throwing off his sleeves, and saying with an indifferent face,

"She, she just lost her breath, and it is estimated that the corpses have been thrown into the mass grave now, if you can come earlier, maybe she won't have to die."

Li Xinghe was trembling with anger, his eyebrows were frowning tightly, and his eyes were staring at Li Chengren deadly, as if he was a lion ready to attack, just waiting for a certain moment to give his opponent a fatal blow.

Seeing this, Li Chengren laughed louder in his throat, and continued without fear of death,

"She's the same as your bastard brother, she's a hard bone, do you know how many lynchings he suffered during his lifetime, there were ninety-nine eighty-one, she was the one who lasted the longest in my hands, and before she died, she still thought that her master could come to save her, but unfortunately, she didn't wait."

In the end, Li Chengren looked at Li Xinghe with a gloating face, but he didn't expect a ruthless fist wind to be ushered in on his face, and the nosebleed from the brush flowed down, and he was stunned for a while.

Li Xinghe took the opportunity to push Li Chengren to the ground, punching him to the head one by one, like killing a red-eyed soldier, never stopping, and there was only one voice in his head 'Kill him'.

Wei Xianrong saw that Li Chengren, who fell to the ground, was not angry, so he hurriedly stopped Li Xinghe's fist and raised his head, but was stunned by the tears on Li Xinghe's face.

In his eyes, Li Xinghe is a little fox who will only take advantage of it and will not suffer, but he didn't expect that she would also be vulnerable, and her tone was much softer.

"If you kill him now, I'm afraid that you won't be able to protect yourself, and it will affect the entire Chongming Palace, there are many ways to take revenge on a person, and the most important is to let him die."

Li Xinghe looked up along the arm that stopped her, Wei Xianrong's dark pupils reflected his somewhat hideous face, listening to Wei Xianrong's words, Li Xinghe also sobered up for a while.

wiped the tears on his face, stopped caring about Li Chengren on the ground, turned around and went to the mass grave alone.

Wei Xianrong was right, it was too cheap for him to die like this, and she wanted to get back the pain that Xianghe had suffered a hundred times and a thousand times, and return it all to him.

At this time, the dark clouds pressed the realm, and the sky was dark, like a giant beast with teeth and claws hanging over the palace, and within a moment, the raindrops rushed to fall.

The mass grave was littered with corpses and stenched with rot, except for the cries of a few crows.

Li Xinghe turned over the corpses one by one, the green clothes were stained with blood and mud, and the rain rolled down his hair to the collar, Li Xinghe couldn't help but shiver.

Mechanically turned over a corpse again, only to see a scratched face, but Li Xinghe still recognized it as Xianghe at a glance.

She was still holding the hairpin that Li Xinghe gave her at the beginning, Li Xinghe couldn't hold it anymore, and tears mixed with the rain rolled down drop by drop.

She felt so cold here, so cold that she couldn't breathe, as if a pair of invisible hands were holding her throat, and the cold wind kept howling, as if laughing at the helplessness of the world.

I didn't kill Beren, but Beren died because of me, Li Xinghe picked up Xianghe's body, stroked Xianghe's eyes with trembling hands, and carefully inserted the bead hairpin in Xianghe's hand back into her hair.

After all, she underestimated the hearts of the people in the palace, Xianghe, you can go with peace of mind, I will get your revenge back for you one by one, and I hope you will not come to this bloodthirsty palace again in the next life.
