Gu Xiaowu's eyes immediately fell on the bed. Looking around, the only thing that might be a mechanism was the decorative wooden sculpture at the head of the bed.

Sure enough, Dugu Chen slowly approached the bed, reached out and pressed a button-like sculpture on the bedside.

Gu Xiaowu looked back at Concubine De, only to see that her face had turned ashen.

And the next moment, the ground that was originally without any gaps was slowly parted...

When Gu Xiaowu saw this, he looked happy. He looked down and saw Su Wen, but her expression immediately turned gloomy.

"Dugu... help me keep an eye on everyone here. I'll go down and bring Su Wen up." Although she was speaking to Dugu Chen, her eyes fell on De Fei.

From the moment Dugu Chen walked towards the bed, Concubine De's face turned pale. After hearing Gu Xiaowu's instructions to Dugu Chen, she even started to break out in a cold sweat.

She had a premonition that everything she had fought for for several years would be destroyed in the hands of this girl.

She really regretted it. If she had known that Lan Qingchenghui valued that bitch so much, she would never have touched her!

Dugu Chen watched Gu Xiaowu walking down the stairs step by step. He wanted to follow, but he was afraid that Concubine De and others outside would close the entrance to the darkroom.

No matter whether De Concubine kidnapped Suwen today or not, her title as De Concubine has come to an end.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Tianchen has clearly stipulated that concubines are not allowed to set up a darkroom privately, but now he actually personally found the darkroom in Concubine De's bedroom...

From the looks of it, this darkroom may have been around for several years. How many lives of palace residents have been lost in this dark basement?

Dugu Chen's eyes became colder when he looked at Concubine De. It didn't matter if he was hard-hearted in the harem, but if he hurt innocent people just to consolidate his position, he would never tolerate it.

Even though she was his father's concubine, but now that he had encountered this matter, he would not let it be settled hastily.

Gu Xiaowu felt as if her legs were filled with lead. Before she took a step down, her legs became even heavier.

There was no one in the darkroom, only Gu Xiaowu who was walking down step by step and Su Wen who was hanging in the air.

Although the pipelines here are relatively dark, there are many torture instruments, including clamping sticks, rolling plates studded with iron nails, whips with dense iron spikes...each of them is an extremely vicious torture instrument!

Gu Xiaowu bent down and picked up the long sword that was still stained with blood on the ground, and cut off the chain hanging Su Wen with his hand.

Before Su Wen could fall to the ground, Gu Xiaowu reached out to catch her.

"Suwen...I'm here." Gu Xiaowu's voice sounded calm, but her hands were trembling slightly.

Su Wen's original grass-green clothes were in tatters, and she looked like a bloody person. Her face was pale and pale due to excessive blood loss, and her fingers were swollen like sausages. It was obvious that De Fei made people hate her.

She used a stick.

Gu Xiaowu's mood at this moment can no longer be described by the word anger. If she were outside the palace now, if her current identity was not Lan Qingcheng, then she would immediately rush up and kill everyone outside.

"Miss..." Su Wen, who had always been expressionless, showed a faint smile, and she said: "Su Wen has... caused you trouble again."

"Silly girl, it's me who has caused trouble for you." Concubine De deliberately promised her mother's daughter to Dugu Chen. She had already noticed this at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, but she didn't expect that she would dare to do it so blatantly.

Su Wen took action.

Gu Xiaowu put Su Wen on the ground, then took off his coat and put it on her body.

"Miss... it's none of your business. It's Su Wen's fault." Su Wen said in a low voice.

If she had not accidentally met Concubine De, she would not have been taken to Xining Palace by them.

It would be very easy to get rid of Concubine De and her group with her martial arts, but she didn't want to cause trouble to the young lady because she exposed her martial arts skills, because in this palace, slaves who knew martial arts were not allowed to stay.

down,

Even if she is now nominally the maid of the Lan family, it won't work.

There were still five days before the wedding between the young lady and Prince Chen, and she didn't want to cause trouble for her master before that day came. However, now it seemed that she had still caused trouble for her master.

Gu Xiaowu carefully picked up Su Wen and tried his best to smile, "Su Wen, forget it this time. If you don't resist next time something like this happens, I will be really angry."

.”

Su Wen was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand."

After this lesson, she really understood that simply being patient would not help the lady. Instead, she would have to ask the lady to clean up the mess for her.

When she was being taught a lesson by those people, she actually thought about using her skills to break free from the restraints and escape from Xining Palace, but she thought that she had endured it for so long, and maybe she would stop if she endured it for a while longer.

But she really underestimated the cruelty of the women in the harem. She thought she was already cruel enough, but compared with the concubine De, she really pales into insignificance.

She thought that what these pampered ladies loved most was playing the piano and painting, but now she realized that what they loved most was not playing the piano or painting, but torturing people! Unless she had experienced it personally, she would really not be able to imagine those people who were raised in

A woman in purdah can be so vicious.

Almost every torture instrument here has dried blood stains on it. It is obvious that many servants have lost their lives here. If the master fails to find this place, then this place will probably become her burial place, right?

She was indeed as naive as Su Xin said. Although she scoffed at it when Su Xin said that, now that she thinks about it, what Su Xin said was absolutely correct.

It was not until Gu Xiaowu took Su Wen out of the darkroom that Concubine De became completely desperate.

She fell to the ground, not even caring about the manners a lady should have.

All she was thinking about now was whether she would be as beautiful as before after dawn?

Finally seeing Gu Xiaowu and Su Wen appear on the ground, Dugu Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw Su Wen, his heart lifted again.

Cheng'er, this girl, is very protective of her shortcomings. He already knows this. Now that Su Wen has been hurt by Concubine De like this, she doesn't know how she must torture Concubine De to relieve her anger?

After all, she was her father's concubine. If she overstepped her authority and disposed of Concubine De, even if she was still carrying the identity of the Lan family's lady, there was no guarantee that her father would not be angry.

There was a little hesitation in his heart, but Dugu Chen didn't show it.

"I think Luochen and the others have already arrived at Xining Palace. Duguchen, take it as my request and tie up everyone here and take them to Jinxiu Palace." After Gu Xiaowu finished speaking, he didn't even think about it.

After taking one look at De Fei, she hugged Su Wen and walked straight out.

Dugu Chen glanced at Concubine De who was sitting on the ground in despair, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Concubine De's temperament has always been like this, but because she looks very similar to the late Concubine Yun, the father always indulged her and even made her one of the four concubines from a little imperial concubine.

Concubine. However, after something like this happened, even if the father wanted to let her go, he was afraid that Cheng'er would not agree.

If she knew how to be content, she might be able to live a prosperous life and watch over the sixteenth emperor for her entire life. But it's a pity that her status is already second only to that of her mother, yet she still doesn't know how to be satisfied, and wants to destroy her natal family.

The young ladies were also sent to the palace to consolidate their status.

Although Concubine De has done a lot of stupid things over the years, the most stupid thing is probably that she touched Su Wen today. As long as the girl from Cheng'er is hers, no one is allowed to touch her, even if she is a girl.

.

Sighing softly, Dugu Chen couldn't help but shook his head and waved his hand to Luochen: "Tie them all up and send them to Jinxiu Palace."

Now that Cheng'er had spoken, he thought of a way to hide it for her. As for his father, he could explain it to his father after the court.

Luochen led his men to capture all the palace residents, and finally went to capture Concubine De.

"Empress De Fei, it's disrespectful to hold such a low position." Luochen bowed respectfully, then waved his hand to take down De Concubine.

"How dare you." Concubine De tried her best to break away from the person who grabbed her arms, "I am also a concubine conferred by the emperor himself. How dare you do this?"

She must not let the prince's people take her to Jinxiu Palace. If she really leaves Xining Palace, then she is really finished.

So what if the matter is exposed? She is not the only concubine who has a private darkroom in the harem.

The darkroom in Xining Palace had been built for so many years. She didn't believe that the emperor would really not know anything about it. He had never touched her for so many years. She just taught a little maid a lesson tonight. Could it be that the emperor would do it for

A maidservant and killed her beloved concubine?

"This..." Luochen frowned slightly and looked at his master with some embarrassment.

"I don't want to say the same thing again." Dugu Chen said calmly, and then walked away.

It's getting late, and it's almost time to get ready for the morning service.

"Have you not heard what His Highness the Crown Prince said? Take them away." Since His Highness the Crown Prince had already said so, he would just do it.

The maid who was taken away by Miss Lan was really badly hurt. An emperor's beloved concubine actually dealt such cruelty to a little maid. If she didn't teach her a lesson, more troubles would probably arise in the future.

Since His Highness the Crown Prince's attitude is so tough, it means that His Highness is confident enough that Concubine De will never have a chance to stand up again, so why should he worry about His Highness?

With Gu Xiaowu's physical strength, it was actually very difficult to carry Suwen all the way to the Jinxiu Palace. It was no joke to carry a person weighing ten pounds that far.

But the strange thing is that Gu Xiaowu didn't seem to be struggling at all today. She had already walked so far, but she didn't seem to feel any difficulty.
