I followed the bearded guard in and pushed open the black rusty door. I was greeted by a dark tunnel, so dark that I couldn't see a trace of light. The bearded man lit a torch and led the way. The tunnel was very narrow, and only two people could pass through at a time.
I looked at the dim yellow torch shining on the black wall. Both sides of the wall felt damp, and black water droplets greedily flowed down the wall. A rotten smell assailed my nostrils. I covered my mouth and nose with a handkerchief, but I still felt disgusted.
"Miss, be careful of the slippery road." The bearded man was already some distance away from me. He looked back at me as I walked with difficulty and raised the torch higher.
"Yes." I nodded and quickened my pace. There was a row of stone steps in front of me. It was bumpy and steep. As I walked down, my eyes suddenly lit up and my line of sight widened. This, this was actually a dungeon! I covered the blinding light with my hand and looked around.
I looked at the pitch-black iron cages on both sides. The people inside were all awakened and stretched out their pitch-black claws at me." Your Majesty, you're here. I knew you would come."”"Old ancestor, this servant was wronged.”"Scumbag consort, you framed me. I won't let you off even if I become a ghost! The people in the cage stretched their hands out of the iron bars. Some were grinning, some were fierce…
I covered my ears, but I still couldn't resist. The cages on both sides were filled with women, each of them baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. The originally narrow passageway was suddenly filled with thousands of hands, making it even more difficult to move.
I tightened my body and a dark hand suddenly grabbed my shirt.”I was shocked. I looked at the black hand and turned to look at the person. His hair was unkempt, his clothes were ragged, and his skin was wrinkled. He looked like a ghost. "B * tch, b * tch…"
"Ah, get lost, get lost!" I slapped her hand with a handkerchief, but the woman smiled even more happily. Her mouth was full of yellow teeth as she exhaled at me.
The bearded man rushed over, picked up his spear, and knocked the woman's wrist hard." If you don't behave yourself, I'll kill you!"”The woman retracted her hand in pain and suddenly walked into the cage obediently. She crouched down and curled up." Don't kill me, don't kill me. I'll be obedient, obedient."”
When I saw the scene just now, I was scared out of my wits. I suddenly felt that the women here were so pitiful, but I still felt a lingering fear in my heart.
"Young Lady is frightened. They are most likely delirious. If you are fiercer, they will be afraid.”The bearded man smiled at me and kept his expression. He let me walk in front and raised the torch high. However, his face was extremely calm. I knew that he was already used to it.
Not long after, they stopped at the end of the dungeon. The bearded guard pointed and said," This is it."”
"Mhm, leave first. Come in after half an incense stick of time.”I gave Big Beard a look, as if I was looking into the cage. Big Beard opened the iron door and bowed to me before leaving.
I walked in gently and saw a figure curled up in the dark corner. I stepped on the wet wheat straw, making a small sound. The woman seemed to be awakened and looked up at me." I've been waiting for you for a long time, Ge Ge!”The woman suddenly stood up slowly and walked in front of me. She gave me a contemptuous smile." Haha, this dungeon is not bad, right? Doesn't it look like hell? Hehe, it suits you perfectly!" After the woman finished speaking, she stretched out her black hand and stroked my face.
I looked at the woman in front of me. This woman who had once served Consort Xian, was she now avenging her master? She was covered in wounds, and her clothes were dripping with blood. Her hands and feet were chained. Her hands were against my face, and it was cold. The iron chains rubbed against my face, making it extremely uncomfortable. I just looked at her hand from the corner of my eyes. Her nails were already broken and uneven, and I didn't say a word.
"Ge Ge, what brings you here?”The woman suddenly put down her hand and smiled charmingly at me. However, that smile was extremely ferocious on her scarred face.
"They hit you. What happened, Lanxuan?”I looked at Lanxuan's cold words at this time and felt my heart ache. He gently pulled up her sleeve.
"Ge Ge's acting skills are really good. I'm impressed!”Lanxuan smiled at me and clapped his hands together, causing the sound of metal chains clashing to ring out. I could still hear the wails of the women just now, but it was no longer clear. I looked around and saw a large pile of wheat straw in front of me. It was dark and the tall skylight was open to reveal a bright moon. I raised my eyes to look at the moon and felt the squeaking sound in my ears. I lowered my eyes and saw a few rats quickly shuttling through the wheat straw.
"I don't understand. Ever since you entered the Eternal Longevity Palace, I've realized that everything is wrong.”I slowly walked to the wheat straw and sat down. I concealed the disgust in my heart and touched the wheat straw with my hand. A damp and sticky feeling assaulted my heart.
"Hehe, haha, you can actually do this. You don't even know what you've done!”Lan Xuan had already put away his previous smile. He quickly walked in front of me and grabbed my clothes." Get lost! Get lost!" I won't let you have it easy!" Lanxuan roared at me like a madman. "Stop pretending. Do you know that you will only make people feel disgusted now?”Lanxuan pointed outside the cage and shouted at me.
"You've been used." I said coldly, raising my head to look at Lanxuan's eyes that were filled with anger.
"Is that so?" Lan Xuan looked at me coldly and turned around." Why did the King of Zhi and the others suddenly become so smart? They knew how to make up for their mistakes by striking first? Otherwise, why would his highness suddenly be alone and helpless overnight, being pointed at by thousands of arrows? Otherwise, why would the Empress die of despair? Isn't this what our great Ge Ge did? You didn't frame me?" Lan Xuan's words were sonorous and filled with hatred, but he could not hide the sadness and desolation in his heart.
I was just stunned. How did she know about all this? Other than sister and brother-in-law, could it be? I shook my head, but Lanxuan turned around and walked towards me. Kneeling in front of me, he looked straight at me.
"Do you know how the Empress begged the Emperor? She knelt down and kept kowtowing, kowtowing continuously. Her forehead was bleeding, but the Emperor didn't even look at her!”Lan Xuan grabbed me and shook me off forcefully. I fell on the straw, but my heart was beating faster and my head was thrown into a trance.
"You want to live a good life, right? I won't let you. The Third Prince can't become the Crown Prince, but do you think your brother-in-law Xuan He can? You two sisters will suffer retribution! Hehe, that's right, you want to be the Crown Prince's concubine!”Lan Xuan shook his head and grabbed me again, strangling my neck." Do you think Ling Ye can be the emperor? Haha, this is too funny. "Hahaha…" Lanxuan grabbed me, his eyes filled with mockery.
" Cough cough-" I stuck out my tongue. My throat hurt badly, and my breathing became tight." Let go-" I used all my strength to push away Lanxuan, who had already lost his mind, but it was in vain. Lanxuan's eyes were still filled with anger. His other hand grabbed the hair at the back of my head and pulled my head down.
"Ahaha, Qin Hua, do you know, I really hate to see you look so pitiful! Consort Jing said that she wanted to get rid of you, so we put on this act, but she forgot who my original master was and how she treated the Empress back then. Haha, you are all stupid women, you all deserve to die!! Haha! Lanxuan's eyes were red as he laughed loudly at me. His laughter was like a ghost, penetrating the entire dungeon, bringing with it an infinitely desolate echo.
I used all my strength, but I was powerless. Lanxuan grabbed my neck and gritted her teeth. Her eyes were filled with bloodlust. Her nails were deeply embedded in my skin, bringing with them a piercing pain. I closed my eyes and my consciousness gradually blurred. Ling Ye, Ling Ye... I muttered. My mind went blank as I watched Lanxuan's ferocious face gradually blur.
