Chapter 647 It's Time to Act!

The second lady's tone was full of desperation and helplessness, she seemed bewildered and confused.

Unlike Da Furen, who was born in a wealthy family, even without Duanmu Yulong, she still has the power of her natal family to back her up.

Duanmu Feiyu is her reliance, now that Duanmu Feiyu is dead, her status in Duanmu's family will definitely be even lower in the future.

It was useless for the maid to comfort her for a while, instead she cried more and more sadly.

This maid is named Yiyi, she is the confidant of the Second Madam, she has been with the Second Madam for many years, and is highly respected and trusted.

Seeing the second lady crying in despair, Yiyi frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, and immediately had an idea.

"Ma'am, this servant thinks of someone who will definitely help you!"

The second lady raised her head, looked at her with tears in her eyes, and asked, "Who else can help me now?"

Yiyi said solemnly: "Ma'am, have you forgotten? Your adoptive father is still in Zhongzhou City, and he will definitely support you and help you solve the disaster!"

"Father?" The second lady was stunned for a moment, quickly wiped away the tears from her eyes, nodded and said, "That's right! I can still ask my father for help!

Although, in the years since I married into Duanmu's family, I seldom contacted him.

But he has many schemes and means, and he will definitely help me deal with that bitch, Mrs. Madam!

The only person who can threaten me is Da Furen, no matter whether Fei Yu was killed by her or not, she will not let go of this opportunity.

I can't sit still, I must take this opportunity to take the initiative to attack, and bring down the eldest lady as soon as possible, so as to save me from worrying about the future..."

The second wife had a reliance and a backbone, and soon calmed down.

After thinking for a moment, she asked Yiyi to bring a pen and paper, and began to write a letter to her adoptive father.

After she finished writing the letter, she handed the letter to Yiyi, and said in a solemn tone: "Yiyi, immediately arrange reliable people to send this letter to the underground ghost market in Zhongzhou City..."

"Obey!" Yiyi took the letter, hurriedly bowed and left, and left the room.

The second lady looked out of the window with a gloomy expression, a cold light flashed in her eyes.

"Although the foster father's hands and feet are mutilated, and his strength is constantly weakening, he has been hiding in the underground ghost market, like a crazy old alcoholic, living his life in a daze.

But after all, he is cunning and scheming, he is good at using various insidious methods, and he will definitely help me get rid of the eldest lady..."

The second lady was just the daughter of a small family back then, except for her beauty and scheming, she didn't have much to offer.

She was able to climb high branches and successfully marry into Duanmu's family as his wife, and most of the credit was due to her adoptive father Huo Yan.

...

Many people in Duanmu's family thought that after the second wife woke up, she would definitely make a big fuss, making the house run wild and causing no peace.

Duanmuhuang and several elders have made corresponding preparations.

However, in the next two days, the second lady did not make trouble.

She stayed in the room, waiting patiently for news.

Two days passed quickly, and the Duanmu family's mansion became much calmer.

In the middle of the night of the third day, the maid Yiyi quickly walked into the second lady's room and respectfully reported the news.

"Ma'am, Mr. Huo has arrived and is waiting for you in the secret room."

Hearing this news, the second lady was shocked immediately, and a glint of hope flashed in her eyes.

"Father finally came, Yiyi, follow me to the secret room!"

The second lady took Yiyi out of the room, entered a secret passage leading to the underground of the palace, and rushed to the secret room for practicing exercises.

Not long after, the two walked to the end of the secret passage and came to the door of a stone room.

"Yiyi, you stand guard outside the door."

The second lady gave a warning, raised her hand and pushed open the stone door, entering the dimly lit secret room.

This secret room is not big, only ten meters square, and many Tianyuan formations are arranged in it, which is very concealed and confidential.

The secret room was empty, only a white jade table and two stone benches.

As soon as the second lady entered the secret room, she saw a black figure sitting in front of the stone table.

It was an old man in a black robe. He was not tall and tall, and even looked very thin. His waist was bent, and he looked a little sloppy.

Under his voluminous black robe, one left arm and one right leg were obviously missing.

His long, shaggy, messy hair covered half of his face.

On the exposed half of the face, there were two raised scars, and in the deeply sunken eye sockets, there was a flaming pupil.

The old man in black robe sat quietly at the stone table, staring down at his right hand.

In the palm of his skinny hand, there is a small dark red flame snake with long fingers, which is hovering and dancing nimbly.

The second lady walked up to the old man, bowed respectfully, and called "Father".

The black-robed old man is exactly her clothes, Huo Yan.

Huo Yan didn't look up, still staring at the flaming spirit snake in his palm, and said in a low and hoarse voice: "Shutong, if your adoptive father remembers correctly, you haven't contacted your adoptive father for ten years, right? Do you only have Do you only think of me, a bad old man, when you are in trouble?"

Hearing this, the second wife was a little embarrassed, she quickly bowed and explained with a smile: "Father, you have misunderstood Shutong.

Shutong knows that you don't like dealing with people, you just want to live in peace, so you are fine on weekdays, and Shutong dare not disturb you..."

Before the second lady finished speaking, Huo Yan interrupted, and said in a low voice: "There is no need to explain, if the foster father blames you, he will not come today."

Hearing what he said, the second wife breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly asked: "Father, then you agree?"

Huo Yan said calmly and indifferently: "Of course! Yifu can help you solve the eldest lady and help you secure the position of wife.

However, foster father also has one thing that needs you to do. "

The second lady nodded and agreed without hesitation, and said: "Father, please rest assured, as long as Shutong can do what she can, she will definitely not refuse."

Huo Yan flipped his palm, and the flame spirit snake in his palm disappeared, replaced by a scroll.

He put the scroll on the stone table, and said to the second wife: "The adoptive father has always wanted to solve an old incident, and now he finally has a clue.

The person in the portrait has already arrived in Zhongzhou City, you have to find a way to find this person and capture him here! "

The second lady quickly reached out to pick up the scroll, unfolded it, and after seeing the person in the portrait clearly, she was stunned for a moment.

Because, the person in that portrait is a little boy in his early ten years old.

Although the boy was young, he was very handsome, and there was a bit of majesty and majesty between his brows. It was obvious that he came from a noble and extraordinary background.

Moreover, although he is a human youth, he has long dark red hair and a scarlet flame mark on his forehead, which is quite exotic.

Although the second lady was puzzled, she didn't say much.

She stared at the portrait carefully for a moment, then solemnly put away the scroll.

"Father, don't worry, Shutong will send someone to investigate immediately, and will help you catch him no matter what."
