Demon King and Concubine

Chapter 346: Fenglou’s betrayal (2)
What about the bet?I thought that those who dared to send someone to sneak into Yao Wang's mansion must be dead soldiers, otherwise it would be no joke to be arrested and interrogated.By the way, who sent this guy?What is the purpose of such a move?
The man was taken down, and there was no need for the two masters to worry about whether to interrogate or torture, they just had to wait for the final result.

"Master, what should we do next?"

"Of course the money will be counted first. I seem to have won, right?" Duanmutian stood beside Jun Xiuran, curled up his lips and smiled reservedly, his eyes were full of gold and silver.

"Hey? Why did the princess say that?"

"Look, he really didn't want to die."

"..."

That evening, the final results of the interrogation were sent to the two of them. Neither Jun Xiuran nor Duanmu Tian obviously cared about what methods the people below used to get what they wanted to know. They only cared about the final question. As a result, however, the person that the result pointed to directly surprised the two of them.

It was Fenglou!

Seeing the result, Duanmutian couldn't help gasping, staring at Shunzi who sent the result, and said, "Are you sure it's true?"

"Returning to the princess, the subordinates were also very surprised when they first heard about it, and they carefully tortured them again, but it is indeed someone sent by Lord Feng."

Duanmu Tian was still in a daze, then he frowned and became contemplative.

Fenglou?How is this possible?What went wrong?

Jun Xiuran just looked at her, pulled her to sit on the chair next to her, and said, "Don't think too much, maybe something went wrong, anyway, Fenglou shouldn't have done such a thing That's right. You haven't had a good rest after working so hard for a few days, why don't you take a rest first. "

She grabbed him with her backhand suddenly, and asked nervously, "Where are you going?"

Jun Xiuran couldn't help being stunned, he was caught by her before he turned around to leave?

He held her hand and squeezed it comfortingly, and said, "I'll go out and have a look."

His gaze was gentle and serious, Duanmu Tian raised his head and looked straight at him, then finally let go of his hand slowly.

He leaned over and pressed a kiss on her forehead, then turned and walked out.

Jun Xiuran went out, and she didn't know what he was going to do. Sitting in the room, Duanmu Tian always felt that something was wrong, which made her restless.

Did Fenglou send someone to assassinate Jun Xiuran or her?how is this possible?Why?
After Jun Xiuran went out, he didn't come back all night. Duanmutian waited quietly in the room all the time, with a gloomy expression on his face. He had long lost the laughter and fun he had when he was catching the assassin.

It wasn't until near noon the next day that Jun Xiuran finally appeared in front of her again.

She didn't know where he went and what he did for the past ten hours, but she saw that he was exhausted when he came back, even though he was trying to cheer her up and try to comfort her, not to let her go. She was worried, but after meeting her gaze, he immediately gave up holding on, leaned over and fell on the couch, sat lazily beside her, and stretched out his arms to hug her gently.

"How is it?" She stretched out her hand to gently rub his temples for him, seeing that his brows were slightly relaxed, her own brows could not help but relax slightly.

He moved his body, rested his head on her lap, and said, "I can't find Fenglou."

Her movements couldn't help but pause, her expression condensed slightly, and said: "Is it really him? What exactly does he want to do?"

Unconsciously, he thought of the day when he came to Yao Wang's mansion to chat with her, and she made tea for him, and his behavior at that time seemed to be the same as usual.

He opened his eyes, raised his body and pinched her hair gently, and said softly: "Don't think too much if you can't figure it out, I will definitely investigate this matter. Although Feng Lou has always been moody, he is not an unjust person , I don’t believe that he would send someone to assassinate me for no reason, there must be some reason, or something went wrong with the results of our interrogation, which is not true.”

She stretched out her hand to touch his face, as if it had only been one night, but she found that his beard had grown out, it felt a little prickly when touched like this, and it made her palms itchy.

"Have you been looking for him since yesterday?"

"No, I went to the palace to go to court at Maoshi today, and I didn't come back until now, which made you worry."

"You look so tired, don't talk about that, just take a rest."

"Have you been waiting for me to come back and haven't had a good rest?"

"No, I won't sit and wait foolishly. I just woke up after falling asleep. Go to sleep."

Seeing that she was indeed in good spirits, and there were no dark circles under her eyes, he kissed her, and then went into the inner room to catch up on sleep.

After running around all night last night, and going to court again today, he has not had a moment to rest. He is indeed very tired.

Duanmu Tian sat on the edge of the bed and watched him fall into a deep sleep, he didn't know what to think, he stood up and turned around, went out of the inner room, and walked outside.

"Princess, where are you going?" It was Shunzi who followed the master until now, and went down to rest, and now Cong'an was guarding the door.

Duanmu Tian kept walking, continued to walk outside, and said, "Take me to meet the assassin who was captured yesterday."

"Yes, princess, please!"

Cong'an carefully protected her and walked to the depths of the palace, entered the remote courtyard, and went down to the dungeon.

When he saw the assassin again, Duanmutian found that he looked haggard and decadent, as if he had suffered a huge torture, but looking at his surface, there was no scar at all.He was still wearing the same dark green suit, with many small cracks on it, but they were cut by the net wire during the arrest, not the result of the interrogation and torture afterwards.

He raised his head when he heard the noise, and the first thing he saw was neither Duanmutian nor Cong'an, but a round belly. He froze for a moment, and then moved his gaze up little by little, and landed on Duanmutian's face.

Footsteps sounded behind him, a group of five people rushed from the end of the dungeon, came to Duanmutian, saluted and said: "Princess, why are you here? It's very dirty here, if you have any orders, just say it, Why bother to come here yourself?"

Seeing that Wang Hao kept her eyes on the assassin who had just been captured yesterday, she said again: "Does Wang Hao want to ask him something? Wait a moment, my subordinates will have him escorted out immediately, and Wang Hao doesn't have to stay here." place."

As he spoke, he wanted to make some moves, but Duanmu Tian stretched out his hand to stop him, saying: "Don't be so troublesome, I just want to ask a few words, I'll leave soon."

She took another step forward, looked at the assassin and asked, "Did Fenglou send you to assassinate the Third Highness?"

He seemed to be a little surprised by her question, and then all expressions returned to silence, eyes downcast, as if I betrayed my master once, and I don't want to say it a second time.

Duanmu Tian didn't seem to notice his silence, and then continued to ask: "Why did he send you to assassinate the Third Highness? Do you know where he is now?"

"..."

Cong'an and the five people in the dungeon couldn't help being angry at his silence and disrespect towards her. The man who spoke just now took a step forward, grabbed his sleeve and said: "This kid is dishonest again so soon, Wangfei Just wait a moment, this subordinate will tell him to tell the truth what you want to know, Princess!"

Duanmutian couldn't help but glance at him more, vaguely impressed that he was one of the special followers around Jun Xiuran, who seemed to be called Karma, and was very good at torture, so it should be his fault that this assassin looks like this results.

"No need!" She stretched out her hand to stop him again, and said, "I'm just asking casually, don't make things difficult for him, I still want to return this person to Fenglou intact afterwards."

"Give it back to Fenglou?" Cong An curled his lips and said, "Princess, you are too kind, and my subordinates think that Fenglou is really not a good thing. Fortunately, Wangfei, you treat him as a friend and even make tea for him. However, he actually sent someone to assassinate the master and you, it is truly inhumane!"

The assassin still lowered his eyes, but suddenly shook his shoulders, as if he wanted to raise his head but stopped abruptly.

Duanmu Tian glanced at Cong An and said: "Maybe he encountered some embarrassing things. Although he has a weird temperament, he is not bad. I believe he will not do that kind of thing for no reason."

The assassin shook his shoulders again, and when she finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at her. His spirit, which had been tortured to the point of collapse, seemed to gather again at this moment, and his eyes flickered slightly.

It can be said that there is no sky in this dungeon, but the sun is shining brightly outside. The sun shines, and the red color becomes more and more seductive. The man opened his eyes in the dazzling sunlight, squinting slightly, looking as if he has not fully awakened.

He stretched out his hands to cover his eyes, and looked up at the clear blue sky, but the corners of his mouth curved into a sneer.

His body was covered with thick thatched grass, and a dilapidated hut was covered by thatched grass. He was lying on it in a gorgeous brocade robe, but there was no abruptness or disharmony in the slightest.

The sun was fading, and he had been lying there without moving, as if he was waiting for something.

After a long time, there was a sound of breaking through the air, and he quickly approached him and finally stopped on a tree three feet away from him. Looking at the magnificent figure lying on the roof, he couldn't help but appear in his eyes. With a touch of surprise, "Prince Feng has been waiting for a long time."

"What about people?"

"Prince Feng, don't worry, my master said, as long as you keep your promise, when the good news comes, the person you want to see will appear in front of you safe and sound."
