Chapter 179 The imperial concubine refuses to take the blame [seven]
This dark passage is dark, and you can't see your fingers.
Wu Youyou gently closed the cover of the secret passage and listened with bated breath. After confirming that there was no one in the secret passage, she took out the fire stick in her arms and lit it up.
Just by the faint light from the fire, Wu Youyou discovered that it was a dark passage with steps, the height and width just allowed a person about six feet tall to pass through.
Wu Youyou walked down the straight stairs for about ten steps and came to the flat secret passage. After walking along the flat ground for a while, I came to a slightly open place.
In this open place, Wu Youyou is facing a door.
Strange to say, ordinary doors are bolted inside, but the bolt of this door is outside.
Seeing this strange door and latch, Wu Youyou moved in her heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the latch and pushed in.
Unlike the dark secret passage outside, the inside of this door is actually bright.
I saw that this secret room was about 40 to 50 square meters in size, with beds, cabinets, tables, chairs... everything was available. The room was brightly lit, and I saw a woman dressed as a woman standing in front of the desk with her back to Wu Youyou, writing in her hand, not knowing what she was writing.
Beside her stood a girl dressed as a folk maid.
The maid had already looked over when she heard the sound of the door, and when she saw Wu Youyou in a night costume, she couldn't help but be stunned: "Miss..." The maid
just spoke when the woman with her back to Wu Youyou sneered. With a sigh, he said, "Didn't you say that the war in the southwest is so urgent that you can't come to see me in the past few days? Why, after the southwest was captured by those thieves, you, the emperor, saw that the situation was not good, and you wanted to escape with me overnight?"
The woman's voice fell, and the maid called her "Miss" softly again, and said, "The person here is not the emperor." The
woman's writing hand slammed, and then she turned around quickly.
Seeing Wu Youyou in night clothes, the woman was slightly startled, and immediately asked, "Who are you?!"
Different from the calm reaction of this pair of master and servant, Wu Youyou, who saw the woman's face clearly, was a big surprise. Surprised.
I saw that her face on the right side was covered with scars from burns, which was shocking.
If it weren't for the fact that the left half of her face was still intact, and those unforgettable eyes were still bright, no one would be able to connect the disfigured woman in front of her with the former queen Fang Yun.
This scar... Could it be left over from the fire that year?
Thinking like this, Wu Youyou hurriedly took off the black veil, stepped forward, and greeted the woman: "Sister Fang, it's me!"
——The
capital said it was big, but the aristocratic circle came here Often there are just those people.
Although the Fang family and the Dong family are not very close, they both know each other.
Fang Yun, who recognized Wu Youyou, couldn't help frowning: "Dong Youyou? Why are you?!"
——
Originally, Wu Youyou was only planning to come here to try her luck, but she didn't expect her luck to be so good. As soon as I touched it, I came across a big fish. After calming down, Wu Youyou answered Fang
Yun with consideration: "Last time I passed by Jiaofang Palace by chance and made the emperor furious, so I was curious about what articles there were, so I came over to check it out at night."
Yun then smiled coldly and said, "Why does Miss Dong tell me a lie? The secret passage of this Jiaofang Palace is not known to ordinary people, and only those who are well versed in the structure of Jiaofang Palace know how to enter. The insider told me that this month is dark and windy, so Miss Dong will definitely not be able to find the entrance. What's more, there are heavy guards outside the Jiaofang Hall. If Miss Dong is not here for this secret room, she will definitely not take such a risk. Sneak in personally!"
Fang Yun's well-founded analysis made Wu Youyou respect her.
"Sister Fang is as smart as the rumors say!"
Wu Youyou couldn't help but praise.
Fang Yun snorted coldly, motioned the maid to bring the chair over, sat down, glanced at Wu Youyou casually, and said, "Miss Dong, Mingren don't speak secretly, just tell your intentions! You are not I specially picked a day when Ling Chen won't be here, are you here to find me?! Let's get straight to the point and talk openly!"
Ling Chen was the emperor's name.
Seeing Fang Yun's candid attitude, Wu Youyou hesitated for a while, and finally decided to gamble on her: "Sister Fang, I'm looking for you because I want to discuss cooperation with you!"
——
"Talking about cooperation ?" Fang Yun raised his eyebrows, "What kind of cooperation do you want to discuss with me?"
Wu Youyou did not answer Fang Yun's question directly. She only asked her: "Sister Fang, do you want to take revenge for the Fang family?!"
Fang Yun became excited: "Why would I not?! Day and night, I just want to kill the enemy Ling Chen! I can only help his power. Damn, a weak girl of mine is imprisoned by him, unable to resist, and can only waste time!"
Hearing Fang Yun's words, Wu Youyou's heart moved and asked: "Sister Fang... The emperor has you, but he has you. What's the handle?!" When
Wu Youyou's voice fell, Fang Yun said angrily: "He still holds the lives of my eldest brother and the second brother's sons! He said that if I dare to seek death or go against his will, he will kill him. If we take them away, let our Fang family be forever!" ——Listening to Fang Yun's words, Wu Youyou couldn't help but feel a chill
. With Fang Yun's stubborn temperament, if the whole family died at the hands of the emperor, she would definitely not take it easy and leave with the Fang family. Otherwise, she would not have been in this Jiaofang Palace more than three years ago. Rather Stick to your guns!
And now, the Dog Emperor threatens Fang Yun with the lives of her nephews. For the lives of his nephews, Fang Yun could only endure humiliation and bear the burden, and survive in this world.
It is enough to continue to live in pain, and to be forced to accompany the enemy who killed his father and killed his mother. The pain and suffering in it is simply unimaginable!
The more Wu Youyou thought about it, the more angry she became, so angry that smoke rose from her head, she couldn't help but stretch out her hand and slap it hard on the table beside her!
"Crack!"
With a loud noise, Wu Youyou gritted his teeth and said: "The dog emperor! Either let the person go, or just give it away!! With such torture, do you still have a conscience!"
"If he If you have a conscience, you won't do things like killing your father and brother, and losing your conscience!"
Fang Yun said coldly.
Fang Yun's words made Wu Youyou stunned.
Facing Wu Youyou's exploratory gaze, Fang Yun nodded heavily and said, "Yes, you are right - the deaths of the late emperor and several princes were all Ling Chen's conspiracy! The only murderer who killed them!!"
——In
the next conversation with Fang Yun, Wu Youyou heard more truths that shocked her.
It turns out that the sudden illness of the late emperor was not an accident, but the conspiracy of the fifth prince Ling Chen! It was Ling Chen who ordered people to eat in the late emperor's food, which made the late emperor's body weaken day by day, and finally added the powerful medicine to make the late emperor's body collapse in one blow!
The deaths and disappearances of several princes were also caused by Ling Chen!
He not only killed the lives of all the brothers who were unable to snatch the throne with him, but also put the blame on the second prince, killing many birds with one stone, and eliminating all his competitors in one fell swoop!
After receiving the order from the late emperor to demote the second prince as a commoner, Ling Chen immediately killed the late emperor and successfully ascended the throne after the late emperor's death.
The reason why the Fang family was killed by him was not only because the Fang family supported the second prince who competed with him, but also because the head of the Fang family - Fang Yun's father, Fang Ge Lao - held the evidence that Ling Chen killed his father!
How could Ling Chen tolerate others exposing his conspiracy and robbing him of what he already had? !
So, Ling Chen first ordered someone to assassinate Fang Ge Lao, and then wiped out the Fang family in one go, and all of them pushed out the Meridian Gate and beheaded!
And these are all what Fang Yun told her when he was imprisoned in this underground secret room by Ling Chen.
——Ling Chen believed that Fang Yun could not escape from his palm in his entire life, so he acted so boldly and declared the crime he had committed.
Ling Chen confidently thought that the overall situation was set!
——If
Wu Youyou was so angry that she wanted to smash the table at first, after hearing all of Fang Yun's words, she wanted to go out and set fire to the palace on the spot!
Burn it clean!
But fortunately, Wu Youyou is not such an impulsive player.
She drank two large pots of tea and calmed down.
After calming down, Wu Youyou frankly told Fang Yun about the current situation of the Dong family.
Then, an invitation was sent to her: "Sister Fang, would you like to cooperate with us to bring down the Dog Emperor together?!"
