Chapter 2806 Xiaoman (Chu Ruo)
Chapter 2806 Xiaoman (Chu Ruo)
Suddenly, a strong smell of blood wafted into my nose.
Hu Xiaoman frowned!
The room was extremely dark, with only a few dim candles lit on the side.
There were horrifying torture instruments on both sides.
A woman with messy hair was tied up in front of her.
The woman was beaten until she was covered in blood, her skin was torn and flesh was exposed, and long iron nails were driven into her body.
She had her eyes closed at the moment and was obviously unconscious.
Xiao Huang shrank back in fear and lowered his voice to ask, "Who is this woman?"
"It hurts just to see him get beaten like this!"
"So pathetic!"
From the iron nails and whip marks, one can imagine that the shrill screams they heard were the screams of this woman when she was being tortured.
Hu Xiaoman was confused.
This woman should be the owner of this palace.
He was recently detained here and subjected to such torture.
When entering the hall, Hu Xiaoman had already observed the furnishings inside.
This woman must have been very favored before.
Hu Xiaoman walked towards the woman step by step, his eyes fixed on her face.
Xiao Huang asked, "Young Master, do you know this woman?"
Hu Xiaoman shook his head. "After Chu Qingye brought me to the Chu Palace, I have never left that room."
Hu Xiaoman wanted to go out for a walk, but Chu Qingye disagreed.
But now she has to look for the Soul-Fixing Pills behind his back. What kind of sin is this?
However, the woman tied up in front of him looked quite familiar.
Seems like I've seen it somewhere.
Suddenly, Chu Ruo's face appeared in Hu Xiaoman's mind.
Chu Ruo is the daughter of the imperial concubine!
This woman looks so similar to Chu Ruo, she should be the imperial concubine of the Chu State.
Isn’t it said that after the death of the former Queen of Chu, Yang Guifei became the most favored one?
Chu Ruo, the daughter of a royal concubine, also has a bit of luck.
How could a favored concubine fall to such a state?
Just when Hu Xiaoman was full of doubts, a strong light suddenly appeared in the dim room.
"Deputy Commander Lin, don't worry, we have already treated her well."
The man called Deputy Commander Lin had shifty eyes but walked very quickly up to Yang Guifei.
He was followed by six servants.
The person who just spoke was the guard standing on his left.
Deputy Commander Lin raised his hand and spoke in a sharp voice.
"Wake her up for me, Commander."
"Yes!"
The two guards behind her stepped forward and woke Yang Guifei up with a bucket of cold water.
Deputy Commander Lin raised his rat eyebrows, looking extremely funny.
"My Lady Concubine, oh, now you are no longer my Lady Concubine."
"Yang, Hu Xiaoman fell off a cliff and died. If the King of You knew about this, our Chu State would surely be destroyed."
"Therefore, the emperor hopes that you will understand the general situation. Letting Chu Ruo become Hu Xiaoman is a helpless move."
"If you tell me the truth about where Chu Ruo is now, you won't have to endure this torture."
"The Emperor said that you are still his favorite concubine!"
"My lady, please stop being so ungrateful."
Hu Xiaoman, who was standing aside, blinked in confusion.
Does this matter have anything to do with her?
Has You Yunbai become so powerful now?
Even the State of Chu is afraid of this?
Want Chu Ruo to become her?
How to change?
At this time, Yang Guifei, who was tied with iron chains, burst into laughter, but her laughter was very weak.
"Pooh!"
"What favorite concubine?"
"I don't care at all!"
"I will not tell you where Ruo'er is hiding!"
"My Ruo'er is Ruo'er, I can't let her become Hu Xiaoman!"
"Don't even think about targeting my Ruo'er."
Deputy Commander Lin shouted, "Yang, do you know how terrible the current ruler of You State is?"
"He has led his cavalry to crush Gaobang and Chaoyang, forcing these two great nations to surrender. Many more small nations have also been destroyed in his hands."
"If our Chu State had not used Hu Xiaoman to delay time, we would have been conquered by You State long ago."
"Yang, as a noble concubine, do you want to see the millions of people of Chu State fall into an irretrievable situation and become the losers of their country because of your stubbornness?"
Yang Guifei laughed weakly again.
"What has the fall of the Chu State got to do with me?"
"If I can't even protect my own daughter..."
Before she could finish her words, a guard had already brought a long iron nail and hammered it into her collarbone.
Xiao Huang immediately covered his eyes with his hands.
Hu Xiaoman's scalp also tingled when he saw this!
Yang Guifei's shrill cry rang in my ears again.
When the iron nail was completely driven into the collarbone, footsteps were heard outside.
A guard came hurriedly to report: "Commander, Chu Ruo has been found."
The imperial concubine, whose body was covered with iron nails, never cried from beginning to end.
But when she heard that Chu Ruo had been found, two lines of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes, smudged the blood on her face, like tears of blood.
The people in the room left in a hurry!
The heavy door was locked again.
The room once again fell into a dark silence, with only the sound of the woman's heart-wrenching sobs.
-
The night is dark.
The sacrificial hall of the Chu Imperial Palace was full of people.
Hu Xiaoman was sitting on a sycamore tree not far away.
I saw a skinny old woman wearing animal skins, with a hunched back and holding a strange witch's staff in her hand.
There were nine snake dragon heads on the crutch, forming a circle with two emerald green beads in the middle. It looked very strange.
At this moment, the old woman was holding up the strange witch's staff, jumping and chanting something.
Hu Xiaoman knew that this must be a wizard from the Chu State!
She had heard that this witch from the State of Chu was extremely powerful. Not only did the King of Chu believe in her words, but the people of Chu also believed in her very much.
At this time, Hu Xiaoman was holding a roast chicken in his hand and eating it with relish.
Her bright eyes were always looking forward, and her gaze never left the wizard.
The wizard was seen holding the Hydra staff and jumping to the center of the hall, in front of the tied man.
At this time, Chu Ruo was wearing a black suit, and his heroic eyes were fixed on the wizard who was jumping and hopping with the Hydra staff. The anger in his eyes was almost like a fire dragon, full of resentment.
"Let me go, let me go, you big liar!"
"I won't do what you want."
"I, Chu Ruo, am Chu Ruo. I can never become Hu Xiaoman."
"Even if you changed my appearance, I am completely different from Hu Xiaoman. Our personalities are completely different."
"Do you think that You Yunbai is an idiot?"
"He likes Hu Xiaoman so much, he will definitely find out that I'm a fake."
"If he finds out that I'm a fake, the Chu State will still be destroyed by him."
"You are just daydreaming!"
"let me go!"
At this moment, the wizard suddenly let out a hoarse laugh.
"Princess Chu Ruo, although your luck is not as good as Hu Xiaoman's, with your luck, the King of You will not find out that you are a fake."
"As long as you use this wizard's magic, I can turn you into a complete Hu Xiaoman."
"Everything about you will be exactly the same as Hu Xiaoman!"
