Palace scheming: Empress Leng Palace

Chapter 280

It was dark inside, Xuanyuan Yi leaned close to the wall and used the nearby branches as a cover, after he got used to the dim light inside, he saw the two eunuchs chatting with a burly guard just now , and if it weren't for the occasional groans at that time, he would never have discovered that there was a naked young boy's body chained inside the corner.


The top of the body was dark red, and the long hair was hanging down from both sides of the chest, making Xuanyuan Yi almost unable to tell, it was a person.

It's just that the clear and terrifying wounds on the body were so shocking that he suddenly widened his eyes when he saw it, and he was a little shocked to find that the man was almost completely injured, especially on the arms and thighs. There are knife marks of different depths one after another...


Then, something that shocked him even more happened.

Those people said a few more words to the left and right, and seeing that the time was almost the same as the previous blood collection time, they stopped talking.The guard walked to the table first and took out a very polished sharp knife, and the other two eunuchs picked up a clean white porcelain bowl and an unopened wine jar from the wooden shelf beside them, and then gave them to the table first. The guard poured a glass for him to drink, then poured the wine into the bowl, and then another eunuch took out a clean cloth to pour the wine on, and set off to walk towards the boy.


At this time, the slight sound of chains that Xuanyuan Yi heard before resounded again, and he finally realized that the reason why he heard the sound of chains just now was because the half-dead boy realized that after people came in, he panicked slightly. Struggling.


At this moment, he was also alarmed by the sound of the eunuch's footsteps walking towards him step by step, making him want to struggle in panic, but his hands were tied high in the chains, and his legs were completely fixed on the chains No matter how healthy he is, not to mention that he is scarred and bruised, he cannot struggle against the thick iron chain.


"Ah!" A tragic cry of pain came into Xuanyuan Yi's ears so clearly from inside, and he saw that the eunuch holding the cloth started to wipe the boy's already damaged palm with the cloth soaked in wine, one by one. Wipe it carefully, as if trying to clean the wound for him.


But the young man was wailing and struggling in powerless and painful way, except that he could keep shaking his head, but he couldn't get rid of the shackles no matter what.


Later, Xuanyuan Yi's pupils outside the window widened and saw that the eunuch on the left took out a delicate silver cup from the wooden stand and put it under the boy's wrist which had been scrubbed. Picking up the sharp blade in his hand, Hao did not hesitate to cut open the weak palm that had already been wounded by the knife, the young man screamed in pain, his whole body struggled with all his might, and his head suddenly lifted up. Get up, let that skinny and pale face like a ghost be clearly displayed in front of Xuanyuan Yi.


The bright red blood trickled down the young man's wrist into the exquisite silver cup. The eunuch who held the cloth stuffed the young man's screams, but the young man's eyes were wide open. The painful squeaks are still piercing, the young face that once smiled innocently by my side is now twisted and distorted by the pain, only the drops of fresh blood that seem to be thick enough to burn through the hearts of the people are screaming. Another sound, pounding heavily on Xuanyuan Yi's heart...


"Plop!" The strength of his body was instantly evacuated by an unknown force, and he felt his whole body go limp, unable to hold on any longer and fell from the high window wall. The loud landing sound scared the people inside. Startled, followed by a bang sound inside, as if something had been dropped.


Immediately after, a tall man rushed out from the inside, seeing Xuanyuan Yi who fell to the ground, the man's face became extremely shocked, it seemed that his lips were still trembling, and his face was full of disbelief and fear.

From time to time, two eunuchs rushed out, someone exclaimed: "Fifth Prince!", and others screamed: "Ah, we are finished now...".


Xuanyuan Yi didn't know where he got the strength at that time, but after seeing the panicked faces of those people, he jumped up from the ground again, and then rushed in from the outside regardless of their horrified expressions, and slashed straight at those people with his sword like crazy. The iron chain that bound the boy was locked, and there was a tearing roar like a wild beast.


"Uh, uh..." Seeing the joy in the young man's eyes when he saw him, he even became desperate to call out to him without fear of pain, but Xuanyuan Yi couldn't hear clearly because his mouth was stuffed with a cloth.

He tore open the ball of cloth vigorously, and then continued to slash those impenetrable iron chains, but he heard a weak and trembling request in his ear: "Master, slave... I beg you, kill me!" Let me..."


Although several years had passed, every time Xuanyuan Yi thought about that day, he would blame himself so much that he couldn't breathe.

He really deserves to be damned, he didn't know that what he drank every time was the blood of a living person, he actually used other people's fresh blood to suppress the animal desire in his body, he was simply not as good as a beast.

He really hates, he really hates the woman who caused him to become like this, he has no grudge against him, but she wants to hurt him like this.


But at that moment, he hated himself even more!

Why is he so stupid to believe what the queen mother said, saying that snake blood is used to replenish blood and cure diseases? Why didn't he find out about all this earlier, causing so many innocent children to be tortured to death because of him.


After that night, he seemed to be a different person, starting to run away and yell at people.

He wants to drive everyone away, and never see a living person by his side again!He didn't know how much they knew about these things, but he never wanted anyone to suffer like that because of him.

Even if he died in pain, he would not harm anyone!


He didn't expect that his gentle and amiable mother would be so cruel. Even if it was to save himself, she shouldn't be so cruel to hurt so many innocent children.


But he never expected that after that night, all the maids and eunuchs who had served him and stayed in Ning Xin Palace would quietly disappear from the palace.

As if everything in the past was just an illusion, he never saw half of the people who left Ning Xin Palace in the corner of the palace.
