The Ghost King and the Demon Queen

The lamps were already lit in the main hall, and the weather in early spring was slightly warm, but it was extremely cold here, even colder than outside the hall.

Caiyi stood at the gate of the hall for half an hour, but Luo Yi didn't come back for a long time, she even wanted to die, the lord was inside the hall, and she had been waiting for a long time.

Luo Yi and Leng Yu came back as fast as they could, and slowed down when they reached the gate of the palace, and entered the palace softly.

"See the lord." The two bowed their heads slightly and saluted respectfully, not daring to peep at the person on the lord's seat.

"Where's Ye Chen?" Qiong Ying raised her eyelids, with a hint of anger, she just issued an order, and he forgot it so quickly?

"This subordinate is dereliction of duty." Leng Yu was startled, and immediately knelt down on one knee, "This subordinate did not see Mr. Ye Chen, and Tong Yun has already dispatched a search warrant to search for it."

"what happened?"

"At noon, my subordinates got the news that suspicious persons were haunting the city, and my subordinates and Mr. Ye Chen immediately went to investigate and found that it was two mysterious strong men on the battlefield that day, but there was no trace of Luo Wanqing. When I chased to the woods, the fog was thick, and I got separated from Mr. Yechen."

Leng Yu lowered his head, blaming himself endlessly in his heart, if Mr. Yechen made any mistakes, he could hardly absolve himself of the blame, and it would not be a pity to die thousands of times.

"You can't find anyone, so you don't have to come back, go down." The tone was neither light nor heavy, but icy cold, as if freezing the air in the hall.

Hearing this, the people present stiffened their bodies, everyone knew what it meant not to come back, it was not as simple as going into the execution room.

"Yes, Lord." Leng Yu nodded in awe and replied, got up and exited the hall.

"Where is Xiahou Jueguan?"

"It's locked in the dungeon at the back mountain in the north." Caiyi quickly replied.

The night was dark, and the back mountain in the north was densely covered with old trees and overgrown with weeds, and there was not a trace of moonlight. Occasionally, there were a few gloomy crows chirping.

A tunnel was dug on the mountainside, leading to the dungeon, blocked by a series of black iron gates.

"All dodge." Luo Yi took out the token and said to the man in black guarding him.

With the sound of doors opening one after another, all the men in black at the door knelt down to make a smooth tunnel.

There was only one weak oil lamp in the dungeon. Caiyi took the oil lamp and lit all the candles, reflecting the gloomy dungeon.

Xia Houjue woke up suddenly, the bright candlelight was a bit dazzling, but he vaguely saw the woman sitting on the chair in front of him, looking down at him, unparalleled in coldness and charm, he even suspected that he was hallucinating.

With a click, the cage was opened, and the colorful clothes blocked Xia Houjue's view.

"Come out!" Luo Yi dragged Xia Houjue out of the cage, then threw him to the ground.

"It's you?"

Xia Houjue was shocked. Although the treatment in the dungeon was not bad, with rich clothes, fine wine and delicacies, but the few days of closure had worn down his will, leaving him in a state of distress and despondency.

"Otherwise, who do you think it is?" Qiong Ying sat gracefully and glanced at Xia Houjue lightly.

"Let your Highness go back to Dongyue! Otherwise, my father will definitely not let Yan Dian go!" Xia Houjue roared. As a prisoner, he could not stand facing the dark walls every day!

"Your father said to wash Hell's palace with blood, but he hasn't seen any action for a long time, so I have to keep you for the time being."

"What? No, as long as you let me go back to Dongyue, I can dissuade my father from dealing with Yan Dian, and also donate countless gold, silver, jewels, and panacea."

Xiahou was panicked, he was not stupid, once his father sent troops to deal with Yan Dian, the shadow of the cold moon would definitely torture him to death, and even kill him, he knew that his weight could not restrain Dongyue, he had many brothers Brother Wang, his crown prince is in danger.
