The Emperor's Mercenary Concubine: Madam Fifth

Chapter 823 Mystery in the Palace 10
"There is a Yan Mansion in the border town of the Southern Empire. It is my cousin. He has the other half of the keys. As long as you have these two keys, you can open the treasure house and get the treasure."

Concubine Yan's words made Xue Qingyun confused, and Concubine Yan continued: "My father and my cousin's father have been fighting for most of their lives. They each want to get the other half of the key and the treasure. My father He wanted to recover the country of Yan, but my uncle only wanted to use this treasure to become the richest person. My father originally wanted to use the power of the Western Empire to recover the country of Yan, so he pushed me into the fire pit of the imperial palace and became a concubine. But my father was wrong, because of his selfish desires, he, my son, and our whole family all died at the hands of Xia Houduan."

"Xia Houduan killed them?"

"Yes, while Xia Houduan kept pleasing me, he also drove my whole family to a dead end. Of course, he did these vicious things secretly, and wanted me to obediently tell him the keys and secrets."

"He miscalculated, because you knew his intentions and his crimes in advance."

"Yes, because he doesn't know. My other identity is a beast master, and the crow is my messenger. I can know everything I want to know." If the crow hadn't told her about Xia Houduan's murder of Concubine Yan's family, she might Still living a lie.

Since Concubine Yan entered the palace, Xia Houduan had treated her very well. Both she and her father thought that they had concealed their identities very well. Xia Houduan had no idea that they were descendants of Yan's royal family.

Just like they plotted Xiahouduan secretly, Xiahouduan is more skilled, after all, he has more power, cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness, they are the prey.

When Concubine Yan learned of her father's death, Xia Houduan faked the illusion of being wiped out by bandits, and soon even the child in her womb could not be saved.All of this is Xia Houduan's conspiracy. Once he gets what he wants, Concubine Yan knows that she will die, so she makes a plan to protect herself, pretending that she can't bear the pain of the loss of her relatives and the blow of the slippery tire. Delirious and insane, he escaped from Xia Houduan's poisonous hands.

Because of this, Concubine Yan was sent to the cold palace to live a miserable life. Xia Houduan and Xia Hourui still did not give up the idea of ​​getting the treasure, and always wanted to get the secret from her.

Concubine Yan pretended to be sick for more than ten years, avoiding open and hidden arrows. Her crow is a life-saving messenger who can always let her know a lot of news in advance, so that she has enough time to prepare for dealing with it.

Just like the moment before Xiahourui and Xueqing stepped into the cold palace, the crow on the tree had already reported to Concubine Yan.

"So, if you ask me for help, what do you want me to do for you?" Xueqing asked.

"Actually, I don't even know what I want to do. I have thought about it a lot. The key and location of the treasure must not be told to the Xiahou clan, and the Western Empire must not be taken advantage of. Xiahouduan is my enemy. It is too late for me to kill him. Why? Maybe give the baby away."

"You also have a cousin, he is also a member of the royal family of Yan Kingdom."

"That's right, he is also a member of the royal family of Yan Kingdom, but my father said that they are not worthy! Even if we throw the key into the sea, we will never leave the treasure to them!" Concubine Yan said cruelly, "They are selfish , I have long forgotten my mission to restore Dayan, and I am greedy for pleasure!"

"I didn't mean to pour cold water on you on purpose. Your dream of revitalizing the Yan Kingdom is almost zero. Now that the four great empires have taken shape, the current situation cannot be easily changed." Xue Qing said calmly.
