Your Majesty, Madam, she is not a human being

Chapter 5 Heading to the "Gate of Hell"

"Miss, do we really want to go out dressed like this?" Xiaocui pulled on the black tights she was wearing, feeling very awkward.

Huo Qingluan took a look at her. Xiaocui was not a peerless beauty, but she had a hot figure, fair skin, and an eye-catching look.

I saw that she was wearing a black night clothes at this moment, which made the plump and tall breasts more attractive.

Huo Qingluan nodded and looked at her: "What do you think?"

Xiao Cui grimaced: "Miss, but this is too..." She was embarrassed to say any more. After all, in her opinion, such shameful clothes should only be worn by women in brothels.

"This is concealed enough. Do you want to be discovered by my uncle and aunt?" Huo Qingluan said lightly.

Xiao Cui immediately fell silent, but she was muttering in her heart, is it because of this that she has to go out dressed like this?That lady...why are you dressed in red?

"Xiao Cui, if you are afraid, you can wait for me at home." Huo Qingluan said again.

"Miss, this slave is not afraid!" Xiaocui waved her hand quickly.

"OK then."

Two people, one black and one red, jumped onto the roof and then quietly left the courtyard.

……

Night falls.

In a hidden gambling house in the city.

A woman in a red dress walked in with her face covered, followed by a woman in black night clothes.The two of them attracted a lot of attention as soon as they entered the hall. However, the next moment, the woman in red glanced over. The eyes of these people suddenly flashed red, and then they sat there motionless as if they were possessed by an evil spirit. move.

Huo Qingluan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and led Xiaocui towards a corner where there was a staircase going down.

"Let's go."

Xiao Cui swallowed nervously, then followed her towards the stairs.Under the reflection of the light, she found that Huo Qingluan's eyes were shining with a strange light, as if he had been accustomed to all this.

The stairs lead directly to the basement. As you go down, a sinister atmosphere hits your face.

Finally reaching the end, Huo Qingluan opened a door. Inside was a narrow path with oil lamps placed next to it. The dim light added a bit of a strange atmosphere to the whole space.

Xiaocui grabbed Huo Qingluan's sleeve nervously, "Xiao, Miss, what is this place?"

"The gate of hell." Huo Qingluan faintly spit out three words.

gate of hell?Xiaocui shivered in fright, paused for a moment, and then continued to follow.

However, what surprised Xiaocui was that the originally narrow and dark road gradually became brighter and brighter, with more and more lights surrounding it, and finally turned into bright daylight.

However, the next moment, what surprised Xiaocui even more was that at the end of the road was a place similar to a market.After Huo Qingluan handed the gatekeeper 20 taels of silver very skillfully, he took Xiaocui inside smoothly.

"Little... Miss, how do you know this place?" When she first stepped here, Xiao Cui was still a little timid, but after she gradually got used to it, she became excited and even couldn't help but look around.

"Didn't I come out a few times before? I heard about it." Among them, Huo Qingluan came here for the third time. The first time he left after exploring for a while, the second time he took on a mission, and the third time... …

"Oh."

"Xiao Cui, let's go shopping tonight to see if there's anything worth buying." Huo Qingluan arranged.

"But... Miss, we have no money." Xiaocui lowered his head.

Huo Qingluan chuckled, took out 500 taels from his arms and handed it to Xiaocui: "I have it."

Xiaocui's eyes widened. She really couldn't believe how the young lady could have so much money.She looked at her young lady in disbelief, feeling a little dumbfounded for a moment.

Seeing her stunned look, Huo Qingluan shook his head helplessly: "Hurry up and take it, don't let anyone see it. We will be richer in the future."

Xiaocui nodded when she heard this: "I know." Next, she followed the lady around obediently.

In just one stick of incense, Huo Qingluan had already touched this place almost clearly.She looked at Xiaocui: "Xiaocui, are you tired? If you are, go back home and rest."

Xiaocui shook her head: "Miss, I'm not tired. I'm happy to work with you."

"Not bad." Huo Qingluan patted her shoulder: "Xiaocui, are you familiar with everything here?"

Xiaocui immediately puffed up her chest and said, "Yeah."

Huo Qingluan smiled: "In the future, when it's inconvenient for me to come out, I have to rely on you. Don't tell others about what's going on here. Also, don't trust the people here too much," she warned.

"Don't worry, miss, Xiaocui understands."

"Very good." Huo Qingluan nodded. She looked at the time. It was almost time and it was time to go back. "Let's go, get your things."

The two left, and no one noticed that in a restaurant on the roadside, a man stared thoughtfully at their leaving figures.

……

Early the next morning, Huo Qingluan saw Mrs. Ye, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, visiting her dilapidated courtyard again.At that time, she was sitting at the stone table in the yard, eating a big white steamed bun.

"Hey, my life is much better than before." Ye said sarcastically.

Huo Qingluan rolled his eyes: "That's right, after all, with my wife's care, it's hard not to be nourished."

In the previous difficulty, Ye Ming also told Huo Qidong about Huo Qingluan's beating, but Huo Qidong said, "It's just a child playing nonsense." This made Ye Ming very angry, but there was nothing he could do.

Ye Shi snorted coldly, and with the help of the maid, she sat down gracefully in front of a stool: "Qingluan, did you hear Zi Yan say that you are willing to terminate your engagement with the Seventh Prince?"

"Yeah." Huo Qingluan took a bite of the steamed bun and said casually.

"You really decided?"

"Well, do you have any other ideas?"

Ye quickly waved his hands, but he couldn't let Huo Qingluan change his mind because of himself. The master would have to beat him to death.Although this girl is still ugly, her brain seems to be enlightened and it works very fast.

"Haha, how can I have any other ideas? Since you want to break off the engagement, just do as you say. However, after all, you are 17 years old and you are not young anymore. Isn't it time to marry off your husband's family? "

Huo Qingluan frowned, wondering why Ye suddenly became concerned about his marriage today.But she didn't show it on her face, she just smiled and said, "I have my own plan for this."

"I'm afraid this plan won't be easy. After all, there are so many talented people in Kyoto, and you have to choose one. But I'm afraid not many people are willing to take advantage of your appearance. How about this? I have a relative, and his child is a child in Zuixianlou. Shopkeeper, would you like to think about it?" Mrs. Ye said with a serious look, as if she were her mother.

These words made Huo Qingluan feel disgusted. She looked at Ye Shi coldly, and her voice was as cold as a devil: "Since so many young talents don't choose me, it's better if I don't break off the engagement. The seventh prince will be fine too."

As soon as these words came out, Ye's expression changed instantly: "No, this is absolutely not allowed!" She looked fierce, as if she was afraid that she would lose something.

"Why not? The engagement with the Seventh Prince was made by my grandfather and the Queen Mother. As long as I don't cancel the engagement, no one can cancel it."

"But...your appearance..." She didn't finish her words, but the meaning of her words was obvious.

Huo Qingluan stood up with a serious look on his face: "So what, does the Seventh Prince still dare to disobey the Queen Mother? Is the Royal Family planning to be shameless?"

Ye's face turned dark instantly. She really didn't realize that Huo Qingluan's mouth was actually very eloquent. He was really eloquent.She took a few deep breaths and tried to stay calm.

"You kid, why are you so mean? I'm worried about you," Ye said, pretending to be aggrieved.

"You don't have to worry. As long as you don't cause trouble for me, I will naturally cancel this engagement. If you cause trouble for me, then don't blame me. As for my engagement...it's not your turn to worry about it!" After that, Huo Qingluan pushed the chair away and left.

Ms. Ye was left sitting there with a gloomy face. After a while, she said angrily: "You bitch, when you break off the engagement, see how I deal with you!"
