C256 dungeon prisoner

Within the Mo Mansion, Xiao Yi Xiu asked Gu Qing Ruo about the reason for her visit. He pondered for a moment before replying, "They might be suspicious."

"Therefore, we must bring Gu Qingxiao along, but we must also ensure that she does not speak carelessly."

Xiao Yi Xiu nodded. "Let's go see her first."

Under the large courtyard of the Mo King's Manor, there was a huge underground palace. It was unknown how many years it had been built, but it was built into a personal system.

The underground palace had dungeons, secret chambers, and honeycomb-like rooms. Hundreds of shadow guards were housed there, all belonging to the Dark Pavilion.

The water supply, drainage, and ventilation system in the underground palace were all very good. Only the sunlight was missing and only the candles and lanterns were burning. Since the resources were very expensive, the dungeon was not as luxurious as it seemed.

Walking down the stone steps of the underground palace, he reached a path that wasn't very long, but was rather dark. The only source of light was the two lanterns in the shadow guard's rotational room under the stone steps.

Ever since Gu Qingxiao had been confined, Xiaoyi Xiu had never seen her in the future. Gu Qingli had occasionally come down to look for her, telling the Shadow Guards to imprison her and not to take away the materials needed for her survival.

As a result, other than being a prisoner, Gu Qingxiao did not suffer too much abuse.

The shadow guard who had guided them had lit up all the oil lamps in the corridor. Xiao Yixiu stopped in front of the cell door at the far end, looking inside through the bars.

Gu Qingxiao was curled up on the only stone bed in the room. She held the quilt tightly in her arms as she curled up into a ball. It was as if she couldn't bear the cold and gloomy atmosphere of the underground prison.

The shadow guard opened the iron bars. Gu Qingxiao heard the sound, but subconsciously raised her sleeves to cover her face, as if she couldn't stand the light coming from outside and didn't care about who had entered.

Xiao Yi Xiu was sizing up the surroundings of the stone room. Due to the lack of sunlight and the lack of cleaning, the walls beside the bed were covered in slippery moss. It was extremely cold inside, and the sound of rats squeaking could be heard from the sewers.

"Gu Qingxiao." His voice was gentle and distant, as usual.

Gu Qingxiao suddenly put down her sleeves and narrowed his eyes as she adjusted to the light. Her expression was dull, but his eyes were filled with shock. Master, you're still … "I still remember …"

Xiao Yixiu's eyes didn't show any signs of pity as he indifferently looked at her.

Gu Qing Xiao panted softly, as though she had just noticed Gu Qing Li beside him. Anger burst out of her eyes, as though oil had been poured onto fire, and she shouted hysterically: "Gu Qing Li! You bitch! You perverted woman! It's all because of you, it's all because of you! You shameless woman, only I know what kind of trash you are! On your wedding night, you tried to seduce your brother-in-law and then eloped with your little uncle... Why did you come back to take my husband away? "Slut, slut …"

Gu Qingxiao cried out as if she was still unwilling. Then, she jumped down from the stone bed and rushed towards Gu Qingli.

She lowered her head and charged forward, bumping into a person's firm chest. It was clear that this was not the feeling of a woman's chest being soft. She flung her hair about as she lifted her head to see that Xiaoyu was standing in front of Gu Qing Li, looking down at her. His gaze was so cold that it seemed as if it would freeze into ice as he stared fixedly at her.

"Wang... "Grandpa …" Gu Qingxiao cried bitterly. His strength had drained from her clenched fist the moment it landed on Gu Qingxiao's chest. Her long and sharp nails looked extremely terrifying, and even the tip of her fingers had curled inward.

Earlier, she had tried to scratch Gu Qingli's face while she was rushing over. Looking at the ghostly, fang-like nails, it was obvious that if she'd been scratched, her face would've been blooming.

Xiao Yi Xiu stretched out his hand and firmly gripped Gu Qing Xiao's wrist. With a solemn expression, he slowly said, word by word, "You've been locked in the prison for so long, yet you haven't learned how to speak human language. It seems like you're more suited to being here."

"No, no, no …" Prince … Please... Ask... Let me out, I'll be obedient, very obedient! " Gu Qingxiao frantically nodded her head. Originally, her black hair was as smooth as satin, but now, it had become a ball, turning yellow and dry. Her messy movements caused it to be scattered in front of her eyes.

Even those emotionless eyes that used to be so cruel and cruel to Gu Qingli had lost their lustre. They no longer had the clear and bright light that flowed within them like they did in the past.

Gu Qingli walked out from behind Xiao Yixiu, feeling sympathy, disgust, and disdain towards him. She didn't want to see this woman who would never change her mind again, so she gently said to Xiao Yixiu, "Don't talk to her anymore. There's no meaning in talking to her."

Xiao Yixiu nodded and exerted all his strength in his hand. He gripped Gu Qingxiao's wrist so tightly that it seemed as if he was about to break it, and cried out miserably, "Don't …" "Spare me …"

"This King only wants to warn you not to try to harm Qing Li. Such slanderous words like today, don't let me hear them again. Otherwise —" His eyes were like a deep, cold pool, boundless and cold to the bone.

Along with the indifferent yet calm words, the strength in his hands increased, and his inner strength was like a snake's tongue that was suddenly released, licking Gu Qingxiao's wrist as it moved across the ground, roaming about in her body, gradually becoming like surging tides that heavily crashed into her internal organs, causing her to feel as though her entire body was being twisted into a bundle.

This was the method that Xiao Yixiu used to deal with the rebel army and the enemy Xiao during the northern expedition. He used it to force them to confess and was unstoppable.

He had not been able to use his inner strength for many years, and it was still quite easy to use it now. He had never used these cruel methods to deal with prisoners of war against women, but today, he found it unbearable. If Gu Qingxiao was not Gu Qingli's little sister, he would have already found an unassailable reason to deal with her.

Gu Qing Li clearly understood what he was doing, so she lightly pressed the back of his hand. "Let me do it."

Xiao Yixiu glanced at her and heaved a sigh of relief. As he let go of Gu Qingxiao's hand, the pressure on Gu Qingxiao was suddenly gone. He felt as if his body had become as soft as a piece of cloth as he prostrated himself on the ground.

"You go out first, I know you can't stand seeing her like this."

"I just can't bear to see her insult you." Xiao Yixiu gently caressed her hair. The person who had harmed him could be forgiven as appropriate, and could be left out lightly. However, anyone who wanted to harm his woman would die for sure.

Gu Qingli smiled and pushed him out of the way.

She looked around and said, "It will be the birthday of your mother, Yu Bi Ling, in a few days' time. We need you to attend."

Gu Qingxiao suddenly raised her head with shock and bewilderment in her eyes, as if she was trying to judge the meaning behind her words.

"Don't look at me, I just want you to be the third young mistress of the Gu family and follow us to the Prime Minister's Estate to return to peace." You know what to do and say? " Gu Qingli gave a faint smile. "I'll let you off this time." If you are obedient enough, then your performance will also be very good this time. Perhaps in the future, when appropriate, I will let you occasionally go to the ground to take a breather and show your face. "

"I don't believe it." Gu Qingxiao was afraid of what Xiao Yixiu had done. Even though Xiao Yixiu had walked out of the room and stared coldly at him through the iron bars, he was still afraid that the disrespect he had revealed would cause anger and vexation in his heart.

Before this, she had never seen that the man she loved, other than his handsome appearance, deep and unfathomable intellect, actually also had a cruel heart that was close to being cold-blooded.

However, that heart of Gu Qingli's had become soft on her fingers.

Gu Qingxiao stared at the woman in front of him with envy. She wished that he could sweep every inch of her body away in order to clearly see just what was worse than her.
