Chapter 351 Dark Lord
If she could pass through this alley safely, it would mean that the owner of the dark chamber was willing to see her.
Since she has come here.
That means you can go in now.
Tang Wanru didn't think much and boldly pushed open the shabby door in front of her.
Unlike Baiting Tower, although it was also hidden in the capital, behind this door was pitch black and deserted. Even the courtyard looked like it had been unattended for a long time, with withered vegetation and a desolate scene.
There were spider webs hanging on the eaves, and when Tang Wanru walked in, the mice on the ground scurried past her feet with a squeak.
Tang Wanru walked in, and the dark room suddenly lit up with candlelight. A woman in a black cloak came out, her face hidden in the shadow of a large hat. She bowed to her and said, "Seventh Princess, please come in."
So Tang Wanru followed in.
The inside was as shabby as the outside, and the tables and chairs were covered in dust.
A person wearing a black and gold cloak was standing inside with his back to her.
Looking at his back, Tang Wanru felt that he looked familiar.
But I couldn't remember who it was.
"I want a human skin mask." Tang Wanru said without hesitation, "What price do I have to pay to get it?"
The man didn't look back, but chuckled.
But it was a female voice.
Tang Wanru felt a little strange, but heard the man say with a smile: "If you marry into our family, you've already got it!" After he finished speaking, she turned her head.
She is no one else.
It is Mrs. Bai Shang Shijia!
"Mom!" Tang Wanru blurted out!
*
Yun never expected that the last time he heard that the owner of the secret pavilion in the capital was actually Madam Bai.
Even until she sat in a spacious, clean and luxurious hall at the back of the dilapidated house, Tang Wanru still found it incredible.
At this time, Shi Shang had taken off the hat covering her head, revealing a neat face. Her hair was tied up, and there was not a single strand of hair on her clean forehead.
The gentle Mrs. Bai who was only busy at home seemed to have disappeared.
The woman standing in front of her was neatly dressed, had sharp eyes, and had an independent and noble temperament, even better than her mother.
He exudes a wisdom aura.
In fact, it has only been the past year that Madam Bai has controlled the dark market in the capital. Madam Bai was originally the master of the dark places in Jiangnan. It is because of her existence that the Bai family's business in Jiangnan has been able to grow so fast, and even Bai Ge does not know all this.
The Shang family spent a lot of time and energy to gain control of the dark area in the capital.
The fact that Bai Yanli's Baiting Tower was able to gain a foothold in the capital so quickly was also inseparable from the Shang family's secret help in pacifying all forces and paving all the roads for him.
Bai Yanli may not be aware of all this.
Shang, the master of the dark domain, has made a lot of sacrifices in secret for the Bai family and even for Bai Yanli to return to being a prince.
At this time, Tang Wanru was sitting in the hall looking at Shang in front of her, and couldn't help but feel quite admiring.
After Shang sat down, the woman in black brought over a tray, on which was placed the human skin mask made according to Tang Wanru's request.
"Mother." Tang Wanru explained, "Now the fight between Yan Li, me and the Prince's Mansion has reached the final stage. Madam Shen will definitely make a desperate move against me!" Tang Wanru did get the news from Li Zihan.
"This human skin mask is useful to me."
Hearing this, Shang nodded. Facing Tang Wanru, she was still gentle, but she did not follow her words, but said: "I can recommend someone to you."
Tang Wanru looked at her hesitantly.
Shang said, "I know that Madam Shen." As the master of the Dark Domain, her dark network is very large, and she can collect all kinds of information very quickly, especially the killings. She knew about Madam Shen when she massacred the village in the southeast.
"She is very good at identifying people. Even if ordinary people put on this human skin mask, their body shapes are different, so I'm afraid they can't fool her. But there is one person who can!"
Shang looked back at Tang Wanru and said a name: "Yu Jiao!"
Hearing this, Tang Wanru smiled gently.
Great minds think alike!
She let Yu Jiao into the inner courtyard and gave her her own clothes to wear, not only because she guessed that she was Tang Yue'er's woman, but also because she wanted to save her own life.
The same goes for the Shang family.
At that time, when she arrived at the farm, Yu Jiao came to beg to be allowed into the mansion.
She discovered it.
Her figure and back are almost exactly the same as Tang Wanru's!
As someone who has been hiding in the dark for a long time, he is very sensitive to people with similar body shapes, because the human skin mask can change the appearance, but the body shape cannot be changed at all.
That's why Shang agreed to bring Yu Jiao back home.
And now, it comes in handy.
It's rare for two people to have such similar heroic views.
Tang Wanru looked at Shang and said, "Thank you, mother!"
Shang felt so sorry for Tang Wanru that when she heard her say this, she forgot her identity and subconsciously wanted to smile gently.
Fortunately, the servant standing beside her gave her a look and she managed to hold herself together.
She is the master of the dark realm.
How could it be so easily broken?
So Shang coughed lightly, regained his position, and said, "Wanru, don't be too happy too soon. I didn't give you this for nothing!"
This is not the Bai Mansion, how can she be pampered by her and have whatever she wants?
They are now a fair trade!
Tang Wanru also understood this, so she asked, "What do you want?"
Shang finally waited for these words from her mouth, so she said: "I want you -" Shang said word by word, "Take over the Dark Domain in my hands!"

Changfeng Courtyard.
As soon as Tang Wanru arrived, Xu Qing pulled her into the room. Seeing that there was no one around, he carefully closed the door.
Last time, Tang Wanru asked her to pay more attention to any abnormalities in Changfeng Courtyard and around Lin Yunrou in the near future.
Now there are results.
As soon as the door was closed, Xu Qing took out a handkerchief from her sleeve. Then she opened it carefully and found a very fine powder inside.
"Aunt Xu, what is this?" Tang Wanru asked.
"Ahem!" Xu Qing coughed twice before saying, "My dear Miss, it's strange that I feel there is a lot of dust in Changfeng Courtyard recently."
"The maids in the courtyard and I cough all the time, especially at night. We are often woken up by coughing. I thought it might be because of the strong wind and sand recently, but that day I suddenly remembered what the young lady said about paying attention to the abnormalities in Changfeng Courtyard. I observed it and saw that the leaves of the potted plants in the house were often covered with this powder, but it didn't look like dust, so I collected it. Ahem, I'll show it to you, young lady."
Xu Qing coughs frequently, which is indeed not right.
