Houmen Yixiang

Chapter 301 The Secret of Moon Temple
Gong Yu looked at her, only sneered, and didn't speak, but it seemed that his wish was about to be fulfilled, and the monstrous hatred in his eyes could no longer be concealed, and became more and more obvious.

Lu Xinyan said again: "Maybe I should ask you, why did you lure me here for others? I, Lu Xinyan, admit that I have done my utmost to you, Gong Yuren!"

As soon as the words fell, Gong Yu's face became even more terrifying. The scar on his forehead, which was already very faint, bulged out ugly at that moment.
She looked like she was insane, crying blood every word, "If it wasn't for you, if you weren't willing to help me, I would be in this situation today?!"

"What field? Are you not well now? After praying for your father for seven to 49 days, you can return to the Hou Mansion and continue to be your Miss Hou Mansion! Grandma, for your father's sake, after the three-year filial piety expires, I will definitely let Aunt Yun choose a good marriage for you. As long as you don’t have fearless wishful thinking and have the Hou Mansion as your backing, you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life!”

Lu Xinyan said: "Compared to those concubines and aunts in the Second Prince's Mansion, your current situation is many times better than theirs!"

"I don't know how many times better?! Hahaha!" Although Gong Yu was laughing, there was a bit of desolation in that smile, which was worse than crying, "You know..."

"Sister Gong, the Princess is playing tricks on you, don't follow her way."

A soft voice with a smile sounded from behind Gong Yu, the volume was not loud, but it was just enough for the people present to hear.

Lu Xinyan was not annoyed when someone exposed her intentions, and looked at the person calmly.

The visitor was dressed in plain clothes, with a few clumps of bamboo embroidered on the hem of the skirt, with a flowing cloud bun on his arm, and a pearl walker inserted obliquely. The lustrous luster on the pearl made his face soft, beautiful and moving.

Lu Xinyan said lightly: "Long time no see, Concubine Shen."

Shen Yuyan covered her lips and smiled, her eyes were frivolous, "Long time no see, Princess Zhuzhu, it's rare that you still remember me."

Lu Xinyan smiled slightly, "Concubine Shen is a well-known talented and beautiful woman in Beijing, it is almost impossible for people to forget."

There was no sarcasm in her tone, but it was almost impossible for people not to think about this situation.

However, Shen Yuyan was not angry at all. Instead, she laughed like Lu Xinyan, "If there is no princess, I can afford the name of a beautiful woman. But since the appearance of the princess, I have the name of a beautiful woman in the county Before the Lord, it's just like a big joke!"

As she spoke, her smile became brighter, and she felt a bit out of place with her elegant attire and this quaint nunnery, "So, it's better not to be as princess."

"You want to kill me?" Lu Xinyan played with two points: "Do you think you have this ability?"

"Of course I don't have the ability. As for killing you..." A strange smile suddenly appeared on Shen Yuyan's face, "Although it will happen sooner or later, it is not now."

"You want me to be tortured?"

Shen Yuyan didn't seem to be surprised by Lu Xinyan's words, "With the ingenuity of the princess, it's not surprising to be able to guess at all."

"Just you and her?" Lu Xinyan raised her eyebrows, her eyes flicked back and forth between Shen Yuyan and Gong Yu, "And these men in black?"

Gong Yu snorted coldly, his eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake.

"Knowing the ability of the princess, naturally I dare not trust it." Shen Yuyan said with a smile: "Except for these people here, the entire Moon Temple is our people, the princess is hard to fly!"

Lu Xin's complexion changed, but she still remained calm and said: "I have few people, but you have many people. Just fighting with wheels can exhaust my people to death. However, if my people, I will take you as hostages..."

Shen Yuyan seemed to hear something funny, and laughed, because she was too proud, she didn't even care about covering her lips, and her smile became more and more charming.

"It seems that I forgot to tell the princess about something." Shen Yuyan said with high spirits: "There are mechanism formations inside and around the Moon Temple. As soon as the Princess and the others entered the Moon Temple, those organs have already been activated. Don't look You and I are standing so close now, but this entrance is actually a trap, you want to catch us? That's impossible!"

Lu Xinyan stared at her, as if she didn't believe her words.

Seeing that she didn't believe it, Shen Yuyan became more and more proud, "By the way, the dozen or so people who secretly followed and protected the princess are now trapped in the formation outside the Moon Temple. up."

Seeing with their own eyes that Lu Xinyan's calm and calm face finally showed a crack, Shen Yuyan and Gong Yu's moods were unprecedentedly comfortable.

"What do you think?"

Lu Xinyan took a few deep breaths, as if trying to stabilize her emotions, but the slightly strange voice finally betrayed her true emotions: she was scared!

Thinking of this, Shen Yuyan and Gong Yu felt happier, as if the anger suppressed by Lu Xinyan before had finally found a chance to vent.Therefore, they wanted to see more panicked expressions of Lu Xinyan.

Sometimes it's not scary to be stabbed suddenly.The most frightening thing is that the person holds a knife and tells you that she is going to stab you, and tells you how painful it will be after being stabbed by the knife, but he refuses to give you a knife, but slowly appreciates you because A look of fear and helplessness.

Shen Yuyan and Gong Yu were the ones holding the knife at this moment, stabbing them quickly, although they were happy, they couldn't understand their hatred!

They wanted Lu Xinyan to bear it, a hundred times and a thousand times more fear than they did before!

"Princess, if you are willing to go with us to a place alone, I can tell you what I think, even why I tricked you to come here, and who those people are, I can tell you." Shen Yuyan said softly The line is full of temptation, "In this way, you can also buy some time, maybe your subordinates broke the formation and found it here?"

Lu Xinyan was unmoved, "If we do it now, we can delay it for a while! But if I go alone, the two of you together, it will be easy to kill me anytime!"

Seeing that Lu Xinyan refused to compromise, Shen Yuyan thought for a while, "Princess, how about I take you there alone? I heard that the princess has also practiced some boxing skills, so it won't be so difficult that even a weak woman like me can't handle it. ?”

Apart from a few close people, the only one who knows about Lu Xinyan's martial arts practice is Gongsun Mobai.

Before she expressed her position, Gong Yu was already showing displeasure, Shen Yuyan pulled Gong Yu and whispered a few words.

Gong Yu glanced at Lu Xinyan unwillingly, then turned and left.

"I accept your proposal." Lu Xinyan said, "But my people have to follow behind."

"Okay, ten steps away." Shen Yuyan said quickly, as if realizing that she was too urgent, she said again: "Let my people take it."

"make a deal."

Seeing that Lu Xinyan agreed, an imperceptible smile appeared on Shen Yuyan's lips.

After everything was discussed, Lu Xinyan walked to her side under Shen Yuyan's instructions.

"This way please, princess."

Shen Yuyan smiled at Yan Yan with a decent atmosphere, as if in the gorgeous second prince's mansion, she greeted Lu Xinyan as a half-headed mistress, without the slightest expression of wanting to lead Lu Xinyan to the road of no return.

"Thank you, concubine Shen."

Lu Xinyan's composure made Shen Yuyan slightly stunned, but she felt that Lu Xinyan was just pretending to be calm!

Who can be at ease in such a situation?
When she gets there...

Shen Yuyan lowered her eyes to hide the madness that was about to be impossible to conceal.

She pushed open a door, walked to an ordinary red-lacquered wooden table in the middle of the room, stretched out her hand to touch the back, but pressed something, the wall on the right suddenly moved, revealing a dark hole.

"Princess, please."

After Shen Yuyan finished speaking, she took the lead and walked inside.

After going down about 30 steps, I arrived at a secret passage.

The secret passage is more than two meters high, the ground is a flat bluestone slab, and the other three sides are slippery stone walls, not cramped, but also very cool.

After everyone went in, the wall at the entrance boomed and closed again.

However, it was not completely dark inside, there was a faint flame jumping in front of it.

"Princess, don't worry, there will be light soon." In the darkness, Shen Yuyan's eyes glowed faintly, and those faint flames danced in her eyes, carrying a gloomy taste.

Her voice is also very strange, it is the excitement that has been planned for a long time and finally come true.

Lu Xinyan nodded, noncommittal.

Sure enough, after walking about dozens of steps and turning a corner, I saw clusters of bright torches stuck in the horns on the stone walls on both sides.

Looking up, the road seemed endless.

Shen Yuyan clapped her hands, and two open carriages came out from nowhere.

"Princess, that place is a bit far away, please get on the carriage."

Seeing Lu Xinyan looking at Qingtong and the others ten steps away, Shen Yuyan said: "Don't worry, you and I take one, and the other one is for your people. But they have to be wronged to squeeze my people together Squeezed."

Lu Xinyan then got into the carriage.

Unhindered all the way.

Although there are blazing torches every ten meters on both sides, but because of the wind brought by the driving of the carriage, there is no trace of heat, but refreshing and pleasant.

"This secret passage is ingenious. It's dug so deep, and the air is still fresh, like the wind blowing in from the forest." Lu Xinyan, who had been silent since entering, said suddenly: "This secret passage is so long, and there are so many torches. To keep it immortal, there must be many people maintaining it.”

The intention of probing in her words was not concealed, Shen Yuyan smiled slightly, probably felt that this was the end of it anyway, it didn't matter whether she said it or not, and said: "The design of this secret passage is really ingenious, as for the ingenuity, I will tell you more I don't know either. The torches in the secret passage are indeed managed by a special person, but they don't always go out, and only when special guests come, will all of them light up."

"A special guest? Are you referring to me?" Lu Xinyan asked.

Shen Yuyan smiled but said nothing, but his expression said everything.

"My honor." Lu Xinyan smiled.

She spoke like this with a calm expression on her face, as if she really regarded herself as a noble guest.

Shen Yuyan smiled mockingly, "The princess is very courageous."

She half-truthfully said: "Aren't you afraid that I will arrange an ambush on the way?"

Lu Xinyan said indifferently: "Didn't you just say, Concubine Shen? You want me to die very much, but not now, but want to see me die of torture. If this is the case, why would you lie in ambush halfway? It's unnecessary? "

"Since you understand it in your heart, why are you still so calm?" Shen Yuyan finally couldn't help asking, "Are you sure that someone will come to save you? Or are you really not afraid of death?"

There was a meaningful smile on Lu Xinyan's lips, "Who in this world is not afraid of death? As for whether someone will come to save me, who knows until the last moment? Maybe those people trapped by you will break the formation soon Come out? Since you are still alive, you always have to hold on to a glimmer of hope. Whether it is fear or fear, it will not help, it is better to face it calmly!"

"You say that because you haven't reached the point where you can't live or die." Shen Yuyan murmured, she didn't know what to think, her brows and eyes were tainted with gloom.

"Concubine Shen has encountered such a situation?"

"What?" Shen Yuyan was immersed in her own thoughts, unable to react for a while.

"You can't live, you can't die." Lu Xinyan said.

Shen Yuyan's eyes suddenly shone fiercely, and the veins on her forehead were bruised. In the flames, her clear and beautiful face showed a bit of ferocity.

If she had a knife in her hand, Lu Xinyan had no doubt that she would lose control and stab the knife into her body.

"All of this is thanks to you." She stared at Lu Xinyan word by word and said fiercely.

Lu Xinyan smiled slightly, "Bless me? Although I don't know what happened to Concubine Shen, didn't you bring it all on yourself? I have no grievances with you, but you conspired with your brother because of jealousy. You want to tarnish my reputation, but in the end I exposed you as a trick. If you want to blame you, you can only blame yourself for being inferior to others."

"You're right." Shen Yuyan said quietly: "Because my skills are inferior to others, I paid a heavy price! So what happens to you next, don't blame me, if you want to blame it, blame you for your inferior skills."

"For the sake of my cooperation, can you tell me something first? So that I can be mentally prepared!"

"Soon you will know what kind of things I have endured, I hope you can bear it!" Shen Yuyan said quietly, with excitement in his sadness, because of what happened to him, and the excitement was also because Lu Xinyan was about to face Same experience as her.

After saying this, Shen Yuyan shut her mouth, no matter what Lu Xinyan asked her again, she would avoid talking about it.

After driving for about half an hour, the carriage finally stopped.

Lu Xinyan was secretly startled, how much time, manpower and material resources would it take to complete such a long tunnel?And the outside world knows nothing about this tunnel.

She once again lamented how terrifying Wuyuan was.

"Princess, we're here." Shen Yuyan said, at the same time, a strange brilliance appeared in his eyes.

After getting off the car, Lu Xinyan asked: "By the way, Concubine Shen, I remember that you and Gong Yu don't have a good relationship. How did you make her willing to stand by your side?"

"In addition to the same encounter, I promised her one condition."

"What conditions?"

"I promise her that after the matter is completed, I will help her enter the palace and choose the third concubine."

"So that's how it is." Lu Xinyan said: "This is indeed a condition that makes her heart flutter."

Gong Yu's obsession with Wu Sheng is terrifying.

She continued: "But side concubine Shen, as the second prince's side concubine, why would you help the first prince? The Moon Temple and the place you are going to now belong to the first prince, right?"

Shen Yuyan was stunned, and then laughed, "You guessed it. Don't worry, you will know soon."

While she was talking, she stretched out her hand and touched somewhere, and the scene in front of her eyes immediately changed dramatically.

Even if Lu Xinyan was prepared, she couldn't help but be surprised.

The long dark passage disappeared, and in front of them was a scene of bright lights, singing and dancing.

The three-storey arc-shaped building is made of white marble, with gold-plated pillars and colorful glazed tiles, which is as gorgeous and ethereal as a fairy palace.

The lanterns are hung high, the ambiguous golden pink gauze flutters gently, the wine is fragrant and rich, there are sloppy voices coming from inside, and there are endless laughter and laughter, none of which can be heard clearly.

In the middle is a small three-story golden pagoda, which is so golden that it really looks like it was built with gold.

On each floor, there are four dancers with coquettish figures and revealing clothes dancing.

The most amazing thing is that the tower is like a wind-up music box, which is constantly rotating.

Even though it was far away, Lu Xinyan couldn't see clearly, but she could still see the pretty faces of those dancers, and if she just took one out and put it in any brothel, she would probably become the top card.

Occasionally, I saw uniformly dressed maids walking among them, and I was amazed by their demeanor that was not inferior to that of the ladies in the deep boudoir.

The legendary Gold Selling Cave is probably like this.

"Princess, please follow me."

Lu Xinyan followed Shen Yuyan up the white jade stairs. After walking up about 20 steps, Shen Yuyan said: "The princess can stop. Standing there, you can see what you want to see, and you will understand. Then What will happen to you when you come down?"

I don't know if it was because of the high standing, Shen Yuyan's voice was a bit ethereal even three steps away.

Lu Xinyan followed Shen Yuyan's instructions and looked at the small rotating golden tower.

The small tower stopped at some point, and two handsome young men who looked like servants, supported a dancer, and walked towards the arc-shaped building.

It seems that it has been spotted by a certain customer.

The veil of a private room was lifted, revealing a round face of a middle-aged man.

Even though it was far away, Lu Xinyan could clearly see that the man was the newly appointed Minister of the Household Department.

When he saw the dancer, his eyes glowed, and he went straight to embrace her with a squint. The dancer seemed to smile, and the two quickly had a heated fight.

After a few cups of rice wine, the servant of Hubu began to move his hands and feet. The dancer smiled seductively and pushed him to stand up and walk inside, which probably meant to go to bed.

Tobe Shiro stumbled behind.

The light in the room suddenly dimmed, and to Lu Xinyan's surprise, the dancer who went in earlier was actually a different person.

Although the clothes and make-up were still the same, that face was clearly another person.

Moreover, it was somewhat familiar.

After taking a closer look, Lu Xinyan was taken aback. That face was clearly that of Yin Shi, the eldest daughter-in-law of the also newly appointed Minister of the Household Department!
Last time on Feng's birthday, she accompanied Mrs. Hubu Shangshu, and Lu Xinyan met once. Because of her beauty, Lu Xinyan took a second look and was quite impressed.

But how is this possible! ?Hubu Shangshu's eldest daughter-in-law, and Hubu's servant... If the Hubu's servant is handsome and handsome, it's all right, but with a round face and a round body, how can it be possible?

At this time, the servant of the household department had already pressed Yin Shi onto the bed, and his actions were rude and urgent.And Yin Shi turned his face to one side, his face was as numb as a dead person.

This appearance doesn't look voluntary, it's clearly forced!
Combined with the situation just now, the person who forced her must not be the servant of the household department, who is that?

An answer was ready to come out, and a thin layer of cold sweat oozed from Lu Xinyan's back.

She seemed to understand, but there were still some puzzles, which made her mind go blank.

"The Princess read that right, that's Yin Shi, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Shangshu of the Household Department." Shen Yuyan's faint voice came from beside her ears, "You must be very curious in your heart, why did she come here, and why did she come here with that nasty and disgusting householder?" The Minister of the Department will just let it go."

"why?"

"Because she has no choice but to do so!"

"Why is there no way? What is the reason why she was caught?"

"The princess is really smart! But I think, you will never know where those clues come from!"

"Please enlighten me, Concubine Shen."

Shen Yuyan smiled faintly, "A month ago, Mrs. Yin went to the Moon Temple to visit a friend who was punished by her husband's house and locked up there. At night, she was sent here in a coma."

Lu Xinyan felt cold all over, and in a blink of an eye, she understood everything.

She said: "After Yin was stunned, she was sent here to be defiled by others. You use this as a threat to force her to receive some special guests, such as this servant of the household department. In turn, you threaten the servant of the household department, the servant of the household department I slept with my boss's daughter-in-law, and I knew that I would die if I was exposed, so I am willing to be manipulated by you and let you order me!"

"Hahahaha, Princess Zhiwei sees it and admires it!"

Lu Xinyan couldn't help gasping, "So you and Gong Yu were also manipulated by the First Prince in this way!? You were ordered by the First Prince to seduce the Second Prince in the Moon Temple, so you wanted to frame me and then ran away His child is not the second prince's at all..."

"You know too much!" Speaking of the past, Shen Yuyan suddenly roared, and laughed wildly with a ferocious face: "I will make you suffer twice as much as I have endured! Hahahahaha!"

I don't know how many wives and ladies of officials and eunuchs have visited this Moon Temple, but all of them have become tools used by the eldest prince to control the officialdom!

It's just a fun-seeking game, but when you wake up, you don't know that you have slept with your boss or colleague's wife, daughter-in-law, or even daughter, and you will fall into an endless abyss from then on.

It's no wonder the eldest prince can make those people work hard, the former governor of the left, Shi Zhonghan, and the former governor of Ganshan, Yuan Xiu.

I don't know how many important court officials have been secretly recruited, and they are silently at the mercy of the eldest prince!

Lu Xinyan thought deeply and was terrified.

"Looking at the expression of the princess, it seems that I understand! It is better to understand, knowing what will be faced next, but unable to resist, this feeling that life is worse than death, the princess should slowly understand, hahahaha!" Shen Yuyan for a while Laughing wildly, "I will arrange a gentler one for you, after all, you still have the young son of the Duke of Zhen in your belly."

"Come on!" Her voice suddenly turned cold.

At the same time, Lu Xinyan quickly approached Shen Yuyan, but it was only three steps away, but it seemed like a thousand miles away.

"Princess, I dare to bring you here alone, how can I be unprepared?" Shen Yuyan proudly said: "There are organs everywhere here, which seem to be very close, but in fact they are far away. If you want to arrest me, there is no way!"

Several men in black appeared out of nowhere and surrounded Lu Xinyan one after another.

Seeing Lu Xin's face change, Shen Yuyan became more and more proud, "You servants are over there, do you see that? But it's useless if you see it, they can't make it through, you can't make it through. It's useless even if you come, I have arranged a hundred people here The hidden guards, plus hidden weapons, are more than enough to deal with you guys!"

Lu Xinyan seemed to give up struggling, and stood there motionless, "Concubine Shen has really tried her best to deal with me. I am a weak woman, so I need such a big battle?"

"Since I was sent to the Moon Temple, I have never underestimated any opponent! As long as it can make the opponent suffer, it doesn't matter if the battle is bigger?"

Lu Xinyan smiled slightly, "What Concubine Shen said makes sense! But unfortunately, I might disappoint you."

"Heh!" Shen Yuyan snorted lightly, "It's come to this point, what else do you have? Could it be that you can fly into the sky and escape from the ground?"

"I won't, but someone will."

As soon as the words were finished, ten men in black suddenly appeared and raised their hands for some reason. The people who had surrounded Lu Xinyan before all fell to the ground.

Shen Yuyan's complexion changed drastically, and she screamed, "How is this possible!? How did they get here!?"

Lu Xinyan smiled and said: "I forgot to tell Concubine Shen that those people who were trapped outside the Moon Temple before were just a cover-up. If not, how could you bring me here with confidence?"

Shen Yuyan was stunned, looking at Lu Xinyan in disbelief.

"These people happen to be proficient in formation mechanisms. In their eyes, those so-called wonderful formations of yours are nothing more than pediatrics." Lu Xinyan said: "I brought more than these ten people."

When I came to the Moon Temple today, Lu Xinyan knew very well that it was dangerous, and she couldn't catch a tiger if she didn't enter the tiger's den, so she was fully prepared.

The people who secretly protect her are the people in the Suzaku hall headed by the little monkey, who are mainly used to distract the other party's attention.

And the real people in the dark were 100 of the five hundred dragon guards who secretly came to the capital from Jianglin.

For those 500 people, during these three months, Zhuquetang created new identities in batches, some were assigned to the army, and some were arranged to enter Zhuquetang.

Before Xiao Yichen left, he left 100 people secretly to protect Lu Xinyan.

This time, just in case, Lu Xinyan brought all of them out.

They are all one-in-a-million people, how can these formations trap them?
