Seeing his brother act like this, Pure Yu Jun also felt uncomfortable, but he could only do this. He brought him along with a horse carriage, and the group hurried back to the Eastern Wu Country, leaving this land of conflict.

If not for Helian Lie's small friendship with the two brothers, Chunyu Qian would never have been able to leave Lou Lan's homeland alive.

In the palace, Imperial Concubine Hui, Bai Bingxuan, was furious when she found out that Beauty Lin had returned. She originally thought that the King would imprison her in the Heaven Prison, but she couldn't find her.

When they had just left the imperial court, Imperial Concubine Hui had already been waiting outside for a long time. When she saw the king's four bodyguards and the Minister of the Left come out, she immediately raised her body to welcome them. Why didn't General Azure Dragon accompany the king today? Black Turtle, White Tiger, and General Vermillion Bird all looked very relaxed today? Even Prime Minister Xiao is so free, what are you discussing with them? "

They respectfully looked at the woman in front of them. They did not have any good impressions of her. Not to mention her daughter, the Right Prime Minister Bai Yan, for example, every single one of them wanted to kill her.

"Nothing important has happened in the past few days, so you're rather idle. For this, Empress, you can ask your father for guidance!" Xiao Boyi was a cultured man, and was also the prime minister of the imperial court. Amongst the five of them, he was also in a high position, so he was naturally the one to answer.

Imperial Concubine Hui gave an embarrassed chuckle, but quickly regained her composure, "I have a question that I would like to ask you. Could you please give me an answer?"

"Oh? I wonder what question Empress has to ask us? " Xiao Boyi had already guessed what question she was going to ask, but those were matters of the king's imperial harem so they wouldn't talk too much about it.

"I heard that beauty Lin has returned. You are usually the people the king trusts the most in his presence. Do you know where the king has locked that woman up?" Bai Bingxuan's heart of snakes and scorpions wanted to find Cen Xue's whereabouts and put her to death.

"Empress, this is the king's family matter. How could we, as subjects, have the right to interfere in his affairs? So we don't even know the answer the Empress wants. If the Empress really wants to know, then you must personally ask the King. After all, you are husband and wife! " Xiao Boyi smoothly dodged her question, and the other four people were even more clueless as they silently stood to the side as if they were watching a good show.

Imperial Concubine Huai (Bai Bingxuan) 's expression instantly stiffened. She knew in her heart that they definitely knew the whereabouts of that slut, but they stubbornly refused to tell her. Her eyes darkened as she turned to leave, not giving them the slightest bit of face.

The four of them looked at each other, and smiles instantly appeared on their lips. It was impossible for the King to accept such a woman. However, if it wasn't for her father, he would have sent her into the cold palace long ago, right?

Bai Bingxuan had eaten a turtle in their garden and was unhappily venting her anger on the flowers. Where was that damnable woman locked up? Why couldn't she find him? Was she dead?

Mu Yue had been recuperating in the palace for more than half a month, and her body was almost completely recovered. Seeing that the weather was not bad today, she went to the imperial garden to absorb some sun and moon essence energy, but didn't expect to see Imperial Concubine Hui's ashen face. Looking at the flowers in her hands, Mu Yue shook her head helplessly.

"Such a good flower, why would Imperial Concubine Hui waste it like this?" Mu Yue approached her step by step. When Bai Bingxuan saw that she was the one who had come, she also bowed vigilantly. To Mu Yue, she still had to treat her with respect. After all, her position in Lou Lan was not ordinary.

"It seems that you look good today. Has Elder Mu Yue's injuries recovered?" Bai Bingxuan smiled at her, pretending to be asleep. She had already seen her earlier, and if she wanted to be the Queen in the future, she would have to get through her.

Mu Yue picked up the crushed flower in her hands and looked at her with regret as she said indifferently, "It is just an ordinary flower. I wonder where did you offend Imperial Concubine Hui to make you hate it so much?"

"This... Elder Mu Yue, you have misunderstood. My hand strength was just too great just now, that's why the flower became like this, that's all! " He didn't want her to see his bad side, so he hurriedly explained awkwardly.

Mu Yue knew her character, but she couldn't expose her in front of him. She stood up and chuckled, "These plants are like humans, they also have life. Imperial Consort Hui has a body of gold, do you not understand these principles?"

He lowered his head, not knowing how to face her. However, after thinking carefully, a despicable thought emerged in his mind, and he moved close to Mu Yue. He said mysteriously: "I wonder if Elder Mu Yue knows about the matter regarding Beauty Lin? "I heard that she came back to the palace, but there was no trace of her whereabouts. Could it be that she was sentenced to death by the king?"

Mu Yue frowned. Could it be that the beautiful Lin was the woman brought out from the Emperor's Tomb by the king? Didn't the king love her dearly? How could he possibly kill her?

"This is a matter of the king, we shouldn't try to guess the king's intentions. Empress, as the imperial concubine, as long as you do what you have to do, it's fine. As long as it's not your problem, this old student would advise you not to blindly meddle in it, lest you bring disaster upon yourself!"

Saying so, Mu Yue leisurely turned around and left, leaving a face full of anger for the woman who was like a scorpion.

"Hmph …" Don't think that you're amazing. If I were to be the queen in the future, it would be strange if I don't think of killing you! " Bai Bingxuan was truly unlucky today. She didn't even have a good chance of winning as she stomped her feet in anger, and gradually disappeared into the palace grounds of Yi Lan Palace.

Mu Yue walked as she thought about what Bai Bingxuan had said. A few days ago when she was observing the stars, she discovered that the Emperor Star that guided the Emperor was exceptionally bright. Furthermore, she had trespassed into the Emperor's Mausoleum without permission, yet she was able to escape unscathed.

He shook his head with a mysterious smile on his face …

Cen Xue slowly opened her eyes. The bone-piercing pain made her wish she was dead. She clearly remembered how cruel the demon was to her. The sight of its fiery red eyes frightened her.

Moving her body slightly, the pain in her leg caused her to clench her teeth in pain. Her wrists and ankles were bleeding, but it was obvious that someone had already drugged her. She could tell who had done it with her toes.

Cen Xue's entire body was chilled to the core. She knew that it was because of the icy-cold water column that caused her to have a fever. However, she still held onto the thin blanket that could only cover her body.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Cen Xue felt extremely dizzy. She could not tell what it felt like. In short, her mind was very blurry, but her hearing was exceptionally sharp.

Helian Shan opened the door to the secret room. He believed that she had already remembered the punishment yesterday. She looked up at the quiet woman on the bed and faintly felt an ominous aura.

She wasn't as delicate as she appeared to be. She was like a blade of grass in the desert. She looked pitiful on the outside, but there was a tenacity deep down in her bones. This was also what attracted people to her.

When Helian Shan's large hands embraced her waist, Cen Xue's terrified expression froze. She had been tormented endlessly last night, causing her to look extremely haggard and haggard. However, there was still a proud and stubborn expression on her face.

Cen Xue knew that he had arrived and was so scared that she didn't dare move. She was sitting on Helian Lie while he tightly hugged her. His posture made others feel like he was a possessive little boy embracing his beloved doll.

Helian Shan's slender and clean fingers caressed her hair from time to time. His gentle movements made her scalp tingle. The deep black eyes stayed on her face for a long time, almost unmoving. Only when they touched her body did he realize that she was sick. He had already determined that she would have a fever after giving her the antipyretic medicine he had brought with him.

Cen Xue's body trembled nonstop. Her fear of Helian Lie had been deeply rooted in her bones, unable to be removed. Even though his movements were gentler than the spring rain in Jiangnan, she was still extremely afraid.

In front of her was Helian Lie's handsome and cold face. He tightly embraced her, his tall and straight body practically causing her entire body to be covered in shadows. A faint male scent assaulted her breath, causing her to stabilize bit by bit.

The night was as long as if it had been centuries. Cen Xue leaned against his chest stiffly. She didn't know what he wanted to do. The atrocities from last night had deeply frightened her. He practically squeezed out every drop of blood in her body as if he was punishing her.

After each wild beast's conquest, she was like a broken rag doll, abandoned in the corner. She repeated it over and over, leaving behind his scent, causing her to constantly hate him. She hated his brutality, as well as her helplessness and weakness.

Tonight, everything was silent. There were only two beating heart sounds that stuck together, but they were unreachable. Helian Lie did not speak, and she shut her eyes tightly, not daring to blink once.

The quiet him had a faint coldness surrounding him, and no one in the world could guess what he was thinking. The deep red eyes that shot out from the darkness added a few more secrets to the darkness.

His presence had drawn huge signs in her life, plunder and possession had never ceased, and he had only left her with the impression of brutality and mania.

However, tonight … Unexpectedly, he didn't even do anything as he just quietly carried her and sat there for the whole night …

It had been a long time since Cen Xue had felt such meticulous care. Her cold body was tightly embraced by his fiery hot body and she was gradually getting away from the cold. Perhaps it was because she was too tired. The warmth of her body made her tired and sleepy.

Helian Shan pulled the blanket over her and accidentally saw the burn mark on her shoulder. Yesterday, he tortured her crazily because of the eyesore marks on her body.

He calmed his heart and looked at these ugly scars. Suddenly, a familiar scene appeared in his mind …

Looking at the color of the mark, it was indeed an old wound that had been inflicted on her for a period of time. This foolish woman had wrongly blamed her, why had she not explained herself clearly and still stubbornly persisted in doing so? Could it be that she really did not fear being tortured to death by herself?
