Xiao Heng secretly took the key and waited outside the water prison until night.

While the guards guarding the door were trapped, one of them flew over and knocked them unconscious with his blade.

"I want to see what kind of girl we have been haunted by Prime Minister Jiang Cheng is." A playful smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Heng's mouth.

Step by step, he descended the terrace.

In the darkness, Su Ling heard footsteps in her ears, and she raised her eyes, thinking that Nie Yunhua was here again. She struggled to keep herself sanguirre.

As soon as Xiao Heng entered the water prison, a foul smell came to his nose, with the bloody smell of rust and the smell of rancidity. He subconsciously covered his nose, but he didn't expect Nie Yunhua to be gentle and dignified on the surface, but there was such a dark dungeon in private.

Xiao Heng subconsciously felt that Nie Yunhua was not as indisputable as he looked.

He was also becoming more and more interested in the person he was about to meet, what kind of woman could make Nie Yunhua go to such great lengths to prevent her from meeting Jiang Duanchen.

Seeing a stranger coming in, some of the other prisoners hurriedly screamed for help.

"Get me out! I'm so cold! ”

"Help me, sir, help me!"

......

Xiao Heng looked at the prisoners with swollen faces, and felt disgusted in his heart. He didn't know what the people he was looking for looked like, but his instincts told him that they weren't the people.

He continued to look inward, and at the end of the dungeon, a woman caught his attention.

The woman was unkempt, but her eyes were like a torch in the dim candlelight.

Su Ling looked at him without saying a word.

The corners of Xiao Heng's lips hooked up with a smile.

That's her.

"Who are you?"

"Who are you?"

Both asked at the same time.

Xiao Heng opened the cell door, stood in front of Su Ling, and gently brushed her hair. Only then did he see that this woman was in excellent shape, not inferior to his mother. But her eyes were clear, without a trace of impurities.

It's not common in this harem.

The first time he saw Su Ling, he felt very cordial, without the slightest sense of aggression, although her eyes were full of hostility when she looked at him now, but through her eyes, it seemed that she could see her pure heart as snow.

Xiao Heng straightened his clothes and said formally: "I am the third prince, Xiao Heng, what about you?" ”

The Three Princes?

Su Ling heard Jiang Duanchen mention that the emperor has a total of two sons, one is Xiao Yan, the eldest prince, and the other is Xiao Heng, the third prince in front of him.

Jiang Duanchen had told her that the court dispute was the most severe now, but he did not intend to support either side. He just wants to be neutral. As long as it doesn't touch his interests and hurt the people he cares about. He is not afraid of any faction.

The eldest prince is the son of Nie Yunhua, and the third prince should be the enemy. Then how did he come to Nie Yunhua's realm?

Su Ling asked cautiously, "What is Your Highness doing here?" ”

Xiao Heng looked at the person in front of him with such a high level of vigilance, and said with a dumb smile: "It's nothing, I just want to see what kind of person can make Jiang Chengxiang's soul unwilling." ”

Hearing him mention Jiang Duanchen, Su Ling's eyes immediately lit up, she struggled with her wrist that was tied, and said anxiously, "How is Duan Chen?" ”

She wanted to know if Jiang Duanchen was really as Qing'er said, and had met a better person.

Xiao Heng saw the expectation in the eyes of the woman in front of him, and he said slyly: "You tell me first, who are you and why are you locked up here." ”

Su Ling didn't get an answer, lowered his eyes, and said in a dead voice: "I am Su Ling, the daughter of a merchant, and the queen doesn't want me to delay Duan Chen's future." ”

Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows, indeed, it is true that a person with a humble status marries the prime minister of the current dynasty, it is indeed a fool's dream, but a woman with no background, just find an excuse to kill her, why do you want to lock her up here and let her be tortured.

Unless, this woman, can't move now.

Interesting.

Although Jiang Duanchen was raised by the queen, he never participated in the party and government disputes. On weekdays, he always deliberately avoids suspicion with the queen.

In the past few days, he has been in and out of Fengming Hall more and more frequently. Maybe it's because of this woman.

She must be Jiang Duanchen's weakness.

The matter of establishing a reserve is imminent. Although Nie Yunhua didn't make any moves on the surface, her real hole card should be Su Ling.

Today, though, he found her hole cards.

Xiao Heng looked at Su Ling with interest, "Prime Minister Jiang is depressed because of you. ”

Hearing the news, Su Ling's eyes lit up again.

She raised her head suddenly, and looked at Xiao Heng with bright eyes, "Really? ”

Xiao Heng was directly hooked by her bright eyes, and suddenly panicked.

"Want to get out?" Xiao Heng, who was sent by the ghost, said this.

Su Ling's eyes were full of hope, and she nodded vigorously.

"Then listen to me, and I will get you out." Xiao Heng didn't know why he said these words, and he didn't think about how to use the relationship between Su Ling and Jiang Duanchen, but at this moment, in this rancid water prison, Su Ling's existence was so full of vitality.

Like the scorching flames of the wilderness.

The fire didn't seem to be burning on his body.

In the Fengming Palace, Qing'er was lying on the ground covered in blood.

Nie Yunhua stood tall in front of Qing'er, holding a bloody whip in his hand. Her pupils widened, veins erupted on her forehead, and her countenance contorted with anger.

She snapped, "Say, where did the key go?" ”

Today, the three princes suddenly came to the door, which was already strange, and now the key to the dungeon has been lost, if Su Ling's existence is discovered by Xiao Heng. She lost her hole cards and went to control Jiang Duanchen.

Qing'er was beaten and dying, but she still couldn't remember where she lost her key.

"Queen Mother, why is the shot so heavy?" Xiao Heng was uninvited.

Nie Yunhua was angry, he didn't pay attention to Xiao Heng's going and returning, and his gentle and virtuous appearance collapsed in an instant.

She simply didn't pretend, Xiao Heng was still in her Fengming Hall late at night, presumably the key was in his hands, and he should already know about the dungeon.

"Heng'er, is there anything you want to tell the mourning family?" Nie Yunhua put away the whip in his hand and looked at Xiao Heng coldly.

Xiao Heng saw that Nie Yunhua was not pretending, so he also said his intentions bluntly, "Niangniang, it's better to talk about cooperation with Erchen." ”

Nie Yunhua's eyes were gloomy, "What cooperation?" ”

"Lichu, choose me, as long as Niangniang is still in the harem, I will not embarrass you." Xiao Heng said with sharp eyes.

Nie Yunhua sneered: "Heng'er, do you know what you're talking about? ”

Xiao Heng stared at Nie Yunhua silently, now she had no hole cards to negotiate conditions with him.

"If I tell Prime Minister Jiang about Su Ling, do you think he will still be on your side? Su Ling is his weakness, and it is also your weakness at this moment. If the mother still can't see the situation clearly, then there is nothing to say. ”

Xiao Heng forced.

Nie Yunhua clenched her palms, her nails were fiercely embedded in the flesh, and she glared at Qing'er, it was really more than enough to succeed.

"Okay, I'll work with you." Originally, she did not expect his son to take over the throne. As long as Jiang Duanchen is still on her side, this throne must be in her hands.

Seeing Nie Yunhua's compromise, Xiao Heng smiled contemptuously, "Let Su Ling come out tomorrow for a while, you don't want her to die so soon." This chess piece is so easy to use, you have to cherish it, mother. ”

After speaking, Xiao Heng left Fengming Hall without looking back.

Nie Yunhua stomped on Qing'er's face, "Look at the good things you did!" ”
