The emperor entered the secret passage he placed in the imperial study room.

He carried an oil lamp and walked down an old step. This was a hovering ladder leading to the underground about ten meters below.

Somehow, he suddenly thought of going there to take a look today.

He was the only one in the palace to know about this secret path. The craftsmen who helped him design this secret path later gave them a hush money and went to a place far from the capital. Because the project was carried out underground, no one discovered it.

Of course, it is impossible not to leave any trace. At least Shaoqing noticed it, but what if he noticed it?

The flames of the oil lamps are somehow getting weaker and weaker. This is because there is insufficient oxygen underground, but the emperor is a little palpitations because of this.

He had already given an order to kill the prince.

He still remembers the scene when he was about ten years old.

At that time, he had just been made the crown prince.

The late emperor established a country with martial law, and believed that the next generation of kings should govern the country with virtuous power.

When the late emperor made himself the crown prince, many founding court officials opposed the late emperor's decision. Many people thought that their origin was too strange.

His mother, Huang Fei, was not a concubine favored by the late emperor during her lifetime. The late emperor only came to her by chance and became pregnant with herself. However, on the day she was born, an unimaginable tragedy occurred in Luoying Pavilion.

He is born with a strange purple pupil that is different from ordinary people, and many people regard themselves as monsters.

But the late emperor valued himself very much.

When I was very young, I often came to see myself and taught myself to read and read, and asked teachers of martial arts and riding and archery to give it to me.

Therefore, the court officials were worried very early on that they would become the crown prince.

One night of that year...

he……

"Don't come over!"

The prince put the short knife on Shaoqing's neck and roared at the soldiers and guards who had surrounded him, "Don't come over anyone!"

While doing this, he whispered in Shaoqing's ear: "I'm sorry... Shaoqing, I really have no choice now."

The prince didn't want to be sentenced to death by his father so unknown. The only one who can solve all mysteries is Luo Ying Pavilion in front of him.

"Get out of the way! I want to go into Luoying Pavilion! Whoever dares to stop me, I will kill Shangshu Yi!"

Everyone looked like earth, and the shocking scene in front of them made them unable to believe their eyes. The prince seemed to be crazy, and no one could guarantee that he would do anything.

Seeing that everyone was not moving, Shaoqing frowned and said, "Are you all deaf? Get out of the way, do you want me to die?"

He decided.

Since the prince must die, at least let him see the truth about Luoying Pavilion with his own eyes.

After hearing what Shaoqing said, the guards finally made a way out.

"Top the key to the gate of Luoying Pavilion! Hurry!"

The head of the guard hesitated for a while, took off the key and threw it to the prince.

The prince was quick-witted and stretched out his left hand to take the key. Then, he held Shaoqing hostage and walked towards Luoying Pavilion step by step.

The guards did not dare to stop him anymore, and the prince also came to the gate of Luoying Pavilion smoothly, handed the key to Shaoqing's hand, and said, "Open the door!"

On the gate of Luoying Pavilion, the rusty iron lock opened with a "click"!

When the prince entered the gate, the guards and soldiers stood at the door like sculptures.

No one dares to chase after him.

Entering Luoying Pavilion is a serious crime, and even the royal relatives cannot be spared. You can enter and exit unless there is a jade plaque specially issued by the emperor.

Everyone knows the emperor's decisive character of killing and fighting. When the late emperor passed away and ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to use various means to kill the ministers who had opposed the late emperor's appointment as the crown prince, without leaving any living words.

"Hurry... Go and notify the emperor! Something big is going to happen!"

Luoying Pavilion is a very simple residence, not a very gorgeous bedroom. This is also because Concubine Huang was not particularly favored by the late emperor at that time, and she was only visited once.

Over the years, this place has become very dilapidated. There is only a table, a few chairs, and a screen in the whole room. At least this is true in the outer room, but it still looks clean, it seems...

Someone has been cleaning here.

"Shaoqing, I'm sorry." The prince put down his short knife and said, "Let's go and take me there. I want to know what kind of secrets are hidden in Luoying Pavilion. You were ordered by your father to read the imperial edict, and I don't blame you. But... why did the father do that?"

Shaoqing was silent for a long time, looked at the prince's urgent eyes, sighed and said, "Why...you can..."

"What did you say?"

"It's not interesting to hide it from you at this point. There is something I can tell you."

Shaoqing finally said something from his mouth as if he was making a great decision.

"The Purple Death Disease does not exist. That is a lie we made up."

The prince felt dizzy and almost fell off the short knife in his hand.

"What did you say?"

"Let's go. I'll take you... to see the truth you want to know."

Looking from the left side of the room, there is a door. Push the door open and there is a long corridor in front of you. At the end of the corridor is another room.

"Your Highness, I will declare first. What you see next is definitely a scene that transcends your common sense, and it is definitely difficult for you to accept. However... it doesn't make much sense to say this now. I hope you..."

When Shaoqing said this, he really couldn't find any better words to comfort the prince. He sighed and said nothing.

When he reached the end, the prince pushed open the door.

"Fei, the Crown Prince is coming down. Doctor Liang... don't be nervous, we..."

When the prince saw the scene in front of him, he could not believe his eyes.

How could a normal person imagine such a picture?

This room is very large.

It seems to have been remodeled, knocked off the wall and merged it into a room. There is no furniture anymore.

The walls on all sides were painted black.

On the ceiling, countless iron hooks were hung. The number was amazing.

At least four to five are inserted on each iron hook...

baby!

The emperor came to the bottom of the secret path.

There, a coffin stands.

When he walked to the coffin, he slowly said that the lid of the coffin was opened.

It was a pair of white bones wearing clothes.

Holding the oil lamp, he approached the bone, and the emperor stroked the skull.

"My mother..." he murmured.

He was not favored by the late emperor because he became pregnant with himself by chance.

If you give birth to a dragon son, your mother will definitely be more valuable to her son.

"Did you think so back then? I'm just a tool for you." The emperor smiled sadly and said, "I experienced those things that humans fear... and fear... when I was a child. That night... on my tenth birthday, the thing that was wearing a black robe and hidden in the dark appeared in front of me..."

The purple eyes... are the mark.

It is the mark of the contract.

Concubine Huang signed a contract with the Evil Ming Space in order to realize her own Yu Wang.

A contract that a human should not have made...

"Why...what is that, what is it?"

The prince widened his eyes and looked at the dead babies hanging by iron hooks.

Is that really a human baby?

None of those babies has a normal body and appearance, either with distorted bodies or extremely terrifying facial features. Only the lush white bones exposed in their broken flesh prove that they are humans.

and……

All babies have purple pupils!

If you count carefully, the number of these dead babies is definitely not less than one hundred!

"The Purple Death Disease is our fiction." said Doctor Liang, who was standing under the dead babies, "The princes who advertised that they died of Purple Death Disease, are all in this place. These princes with purple pupils have such an ugly and terrifying attitude from birth. This is a shame for the royal family, and the emperor will of course bury them here."

The prince could no longer speak.

These dead babies... all have the same bloodline as themselves?

Even though they are so ugly, they are deprived of their lives as soon as they are born?

Did you survive the death because you are not ugly? Instead of not suffering from the purple death disease?
