The atmosphere in the secret room was very strange. Wuyou was sitting on the bed, while the city lord's wife and the young lady were sitting together at the table. The three of them were sitting in two places, forming a confrontational situation.
Ever since the city lord's wife appeared with that domineering declaration, everyone present fell into silence.
When the young lady saw the city lord's wife coming, she just nodded slightly towards her and continued to look at Wuyou. After the city lord's wife said those words, she sat on a stool next to the young madam and sipped tea in peace.
There is no wrinkle on the well-maintained hands, and the nails are dyed bright red, making the already white and tender hands even whiter and more tender.
None of the three people spoke first, just waiting for the other's reaction.
After all, Wuyou was still too young and couldn't hold her breath. After hearing the resolute words of the wife of the city lord, she was not afraid, but she was even more confused. Why did the city lord's wife and the young lady do such a thing because they had such respected status?
As for the matter, the young lady refused to answer, so Wuyou couldn't help but throw the question to the city lord's wife. A clear voice sounded in the quiet atmosphere, breaking the deadlock in the room.
"Why are you doing such a thing?" Wuyou's tone was not good due to the anger in his heart.
"Why? Huh, why should I tell you, you are already a dying person, what difference does it make if you know or not!" The city lord's wife gently shook the tea cup, as if she was sipping a glass of fine wine, for Wuyou
She just responded to the question in a neither salty nor bland manner.
Seeing the city lord's wife speaking like this, the young lady's face changed slightly, and she said urgently: "Mother, you can't kill her. If you kill her, the family behind her will definitely not let us go, and may even be implicated.
Hongye City and Sicily Province, and even the entire Beiyue Empire!"
After listening to her words, Wuyou understood the reason why he was only imprisoned but not persecuted.
But after hearing the young lady's words, the city lord's wife's original relaxed smile disappeared. Her brows frowned slightly, and her heart was full of hesitation. She knew that her daughter-in-law was very smart, and her worries would most likely come true.
, so she didn’t dare to do anything to Wuyou.
Seeing the hesitant expressions on the two people's faces, Wuyou became calmer in his heart. Knowing that he would not die for the time being, he said with a slight smile: "It seems that you are also smart people and know how to care about my identity. Yes, you guessed it?"
That’s right, I come from a hermit family, and I am also a direct descendant of the Feng family. The only two direct descendants of the Feng family are me and my brother. My brother and the others have loved me very much since I was a child, and my aunt is also the head of the Le family.
Mother, if you want to kill me, the people in the clan will know it immediately. Not only your Hongye City, but the entire Beiyue Empire may not be able to withstand the anger of the two hidden families! I forgot to mention that my aunt is still Dong
The current empress dowager of the Lin Empire, our Feng family's family rule is to protect our shortcomings, you are sure that you can face the entire Donglin Empire while facing the two hidden families."
Wuyou said as he took out the Feng family's family emblem, which is an identity certificate that only direct bloodline can have. In order to give Wuyou a man's identity, the Feng family specially cast Feng Wuyou's identity token for him.
, selling the token at this time is the best proof of your identity.
Hearing Wuyou's slightly threatening words, the tea cup in the young lady's hand fell to the ground. She had seen such a portrait of an identity token before. She was lucky enough to see this picture when she and her father went to the Imperial Palace for a banquet.
The portrait depicts the Empress Dowager of the Donglin Empire, and the clan emblem is hanging on her body.
Because the emblem of the Feng family is a phoenix flying high, she was naturally deeply impressed by beautiful things as a woman, so she recognized the genuine product at a glance when she saw it.
Ignoring the teacup that was overturned on the ground, she turned around and grabbed the arm of the city lord's wife, and said to the city lord's wife: "Mother, she did not lie. This is really the token of the Feng family. I have the honor to see the portrait. It is absolutely
There’s nothing wrong with that.”
At this time, the city lord's wife clenched her fists, and the sharp nails had pierced some wounds on her palms, and there was faint blood coming out.
Knowing Wuyou's identity, knowing that there are not only two hidden families behind her, but also a large empire, you must know that the Emperor of the Donglin Empire only has one wife in his life, the Empress Dowager, and that the current emperor of the Donglin Empire
It was their son who, under the leadership of the current emperor, made the Donglin Empire become the leader of the four great empires.
Such an identity and background were really not something they could offend, and the city lord's wife's originally hesitant heart became panicked.
The arrogant wife of the city lord was scared to the point of weakness with just words. I have to say that our young master Wuyou is indeed very sinister. He defeated the two of them with just a few words.
Seeing that the result he expected had been obtained, Wuyou smiled lightly and said slowly: "Actually, it is not impossible for me to promise not to tell anyone, unless..."
Hearing Wuyou's words, the city lord's wife and young lady both looked at her, looking forward to what she would say next, but our young master Wuyou stopped talking.
The city lord's wife became anxious and asked eagerly: "Unless what?"
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Wuyou did not continue to tease them, but continued: "Unless you tell me the whole story, why do you want to arrest these people? What is the purpose? Maybe I will be happy after hearing the reason.
I will promise you~~~~”
Listening to Wuyou's teasing words, the city lord's wife looked at the young lady with questioning eyes. The young lady hesitated for a moment before nodding heavily.
Seeing the two people's compromise, Wuyou smiled evilly and thought to himself: "Boy, I saw how arrogant you were threatening me just now, let's see how you can give me a satisfactory explanation!" The city lord's wife was about to answer Wuyou's question.
The question was stopped by the young madam. Both Wuyou and the city lord's wife looked at the young madam in confusion as she didn't know why.
The young lady just let go of the city lord's wife's hand, walked slowly to Wuyou, and said to her: "Come with me, let me tell you the truth of the matter!"
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the cell. After a period of rest, Wuyou's injuries had healed. She climbed out of bed lightly and followed the young lady as she was told. Wuyou was not afraid that she would suddenly
Killing himself, after all, his identity is not something they can offend, so he followed the young lady with peace of mind, while the city lord's wife followed behind Wuyou, with an uncertain face.
The same narrow passage, the same dim magic lamp, but the mood at this time is completely different from that at that time. With the young lady leading Wuyou, there is no need to be as cautious as before.
After a while they came to the room where the blood pool was.
I saw the young lady walking slowly to the stone bed. Ignoring Wuyou, she lowered herself and sat on the edge of the stone bed. She slowly raised her trembling hand and touched the face of the sleeping man on the bed. Her eyes were filled with tears.
There were tears in my eyes, but the tears never fell.
Looking at this bleak figure, Wuyou had vaguely guessed the identity of the man on the stone bed. He should be the young city lord who disappeared first.
Without taking back the hand that caressed the man's cheek, and without turning around to look at Wuyou, the young lady's faint voice came, soft and slow, as if she was recalling something.
