The Cold-blooded Emperor's Vengeful Concubine

The lonely wind and cold moon made the autumn night bleak and the hearts of several people lonely...

His apology could not reach her heart, and he quickly sank into the cold and lonely night with silent forbearance and disappeared, as if he had never been there.

The whole journey was light and graceful, and a spotless white robe quickly passed through the dark night...

A figure in white clothes landed in the dense woods, pushed open the cover of a dry well, spun quickly and went down. The cover closed, and he went down along the well. It was pitch black and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.

With excellent night vision, he moved forward in the dark and pressed the mechanism. The granite door weighing several hundred pounds slowly rose, and a dazzling light shone towards the person. When the rock door rose to a certain height, the man in white bent down and walked in.

Inside the granite gate is a luxurious underground palace, decorated with gold and silver, gorgeously and ingeniously.

The man in white looked around, but there was no one in the hall.

"Young Palace Master, the Palace Master invites you." A woman in a white veil invited respectfully.

"Yeah." The man in white replied calmly and followed the woman.

The palace is surrounded by solid rocks. Although it is beautifully decorated, it looks cold and eerie because it is made of rock. However, with the oil lamps hanging along the way, it is as bright as day.

Arriving in front of a huge stone door, the masked woman made a gesture of "please", pressed the mechanism, and the stone door slowly rose. The man in white walked in. The dim yellow light flickered, and there was a screen between them, so the person behind the screen could not be seen clearly...

"Gu Yue greets the Palace Master." It turned out that the man in white was Gu Yue, the master of Butterfly Valley. Gu Yue knelt on one knee respectfully, clenched his hands into fists, and lowered his head.

"Yue'er, where did you go just now?" A hoarse and unpleasant voice like sawing wood came from behind the screen. It was unclear whether it was a man or a woman, but the voice was a little scary at this time and place.

"Palace Master, Gu Yue just went back to Butterfly Valley." Gu Yue said calmly. She didn't dare to look directly at the reflection on the screen, as if it was such a terrifying existence.

The flickering light of the oil lamp shone on the screen, and the reflection also seemed to flicker and become blurry.

A strange atmosphere hovered over the room, and the reflection on the screen kept swaying...

"Since when has my Yue'er refused to tell the truth to this palace master... huh?" Although the sound of sawing wood was dull and without any blame or anger,

However, Gu Yue, who was kneeling on the ground, trembled slightly, as if she was afraid...

"Palace Master..."

"Yue'er, where did you go just now?" It was the same question, asked again by the person behind the screen whom Gu Yue called the Palace Master.

"Please punish me, Palace Master." Gu Yue pursed her lips and endured it, hiding all her fearful emotions under the butterfly-shaped mask.

"Yue'er, where did you go just now?" The same question was asked again and again.

"Please punish me, Palace Master." Gu Yue didn't say anything but just said the words of punishment. He couldn't let her get into trouble, so he had to bear everything.

"Yue'er, you are becoming more and more disobedient. It seems that you have forgotten the feeling of being punished. Yue'er, you are really forgetful."

"Gu Yue deserves death."

"Yue'er, have you forgotten the first words I said to you?"

The confined space and the strong sense of oppression made Gu Yue feel suffocated. For Gu Yue, it was an invisible fear and oppression that she had experienced since she was a child...

"Gu Yue never dared to forget the lessons the Palace Master taught her."

"What was the first sentence I said?"

"The Palace Master once said that love comes from illusion and hate comes from reality. Only when you have no love can you be invincible."

"That's right. Love is a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water. The people of Fanli Palace do not need the most filthy and despicable love in the world. Only hatred is the truth that goes deep into your bones. Don't forget the blood feud behind you. Baili Haoxuan..." The Palace Master of Fanli Palace did not finish the next words.

Gu Yue had already clenched his fists, his knuckles were white and veins were bulging. For the first time, the cold and indifferent Gu Yue showed emotions other than indifference.

"Yue'er, do you know that this assassination was not reported to you by me beforehand?"

"Gu Yue doesn't know. Please let me know, Palace Master."

"The target of the assassination this time is not Baili Haoxuan."

“Gu Yue doesn’t understand.” He raised his head, which had been lowered all the time, and looked at the reflection on the screen. It was swaying, flickering, and couldn’t be seen clearly.

"This palace master only wants to tell you, don't think that I don't know what you did behind my back. In the past three years, this palace master has always tolerated you, knowing that Yue'er knows her limits. But now it seems that Yue'er is becoming less and less sensible!" The hoarse and unpleasant sound of sawing wood can be heard with a little excitement.

"Gu Yue is ignorant."

"Sang Yu Hanyan."

After saying these four words, Gu Yue's heart suddenly sank. The Palace Master actually...

"Palace Master, Gu Yue just..." Gu Yue hurriedly explained, but was interrupted by the Palace Master of Fanli Palace.

"This palace master does not want to know. You can save her, teach her, or even send her to Baili Haoxuan to do whatever you want. This palace master can allow you all of this. However, Sang Yu Hanyan can only be a slave, a maid, and a pawn to Yue'er. The relationship between you and her can only be one of using and being used. All other relationships are not allowed. Otherwise..." Gu Yue understood without having to finish the words.

"This palace master can ignore any contract you have with King Mo Dan in private. But, don't forget your duty. Also, don't forget that once your heart is moved, it will be you and her who will die. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Gu Yue understands."

"Go down and accept your punishment. It seems that Yue'er has forgotten what it feels like."

"Thank you, Palace Master." Gu Yue turned and left the oppressive place that gave him nightmares and oppressed him...

It turned out that he had never left the control of the Palace Master; it turned out that his power was still attached to the Fanli Palace; it turned out that he did not have enough strength to get rid of all this; it turned out that he did not have enough power to protect her...

Compared to facing the Palace Master, he suddenly felt that it wasn't that scary...
