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

She is not like the old lady who came from a wealthy family, even without Duanmu Yulong, she still has her family's backing.

Duanmu Feiyu is her support, now Duanmu Feiyu is dead, and her status in Duanmu's house will definitely be lower in the future.

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

This maid named Yiyi is the confidant of the second lady. She has been with the second lady for many years and is highly regarded and trusted.

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

"Madam, the servant girl thinks of someone, she can definitely help you!"

The second lady raised her head, gave her a dim look with tears, and asked, "Who else can help me now?"

Yiyi said solemnly, "Madam, have you forgotten? Your adoptive father is still in Zhongzhou City. His elderly will definitely support you and help you solve the disaster!"

"Foster father?" The second lady was stunned for a moment, and quickly wiped the tears from her eyes, nodded and said: "Yes! I can still ask the foster father for help!

Although, in the years since I married into Duanmu's family, I rarely contacted his elderly.

But his tactics are numerous, and he can definitely help me solve the **** of the lady!

The only person who could threaten me was the eldest lady. Whether or not Feiyu was killed by her, she would not let this opportunity pass.

I can’t just sit back and wait. I must take this opportunity to take the initiative to take down the eldest lady as soon as possible to avoid my worries..."

The second wife had the support and backbone, and soon calmed down.

After thinking for a moment, she asked Yiyi to bring paper and pen and start writing to her foster father.

After she wrote the letter, she handed it to Yiyi, and solemnly said: "Yiyi, you immediately arrange a reliable manpower to send this letter to the underground ghost market in Zhongzhou City..."

"Yes!" Yiyi took the letter, hurriedly saluted and quit, and left the room.

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

"Although the foster father's hands and feet are mutilated, and the realm of strength is constantly weakening, he has been hiding in the underground ghost market, like a crazy old drunkard, living in a muddle.

But after all, he is savvy and good at using all kinds of insidious methods, and he can definitely help me get rid of the big lady..."

The second wife was just the daughter of a small family, and apart from a bit of beauty and scheming, she didn't have much brilliance.

She was able to climb to Gaozhi and successfully married into the Duanmu family as a wife, and most of the credit was given to her foster father Huo Yan.

...

Many people in the Duanmu family thought that after the second lady woke up, she would have to make a big fuss.

Duan Muhuang and several elders have made corresponding preparations.

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

She stayed in the room and waited patiently for news.

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

Late at night on the third day, the maid Yiyi walked quickly into the second lady's room and reported the news respectfully.

"Madam, Elder Huo has arrived and is waiting for you in the secret room."

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

"Foster father is finally here, Yiyi, follow me to the secret room!"

The second wife left the room with Yiyi, entered a secret passage leading to the palace underground, and rushed to the practice secret room.

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

"Yiyi, you are guarding outside the door."

The second wife exhorted, raised her hand and pushed open the stone door, and entered the dark secret room.

This secret room is small, only ten meters in radius, and many Tianyuan formations are arranged in it, which is very hidden and confidential.

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

As soon as the second wife entered the secret room, she saw a black figure sitting at the stone table.

He was an old man in a black robe. He was not burly and tall, and even looked very thin. He crouched at his waist and looked a little sloppy.

Under his large black robe, there was obviously a left arm and a right leg missing.

His long, fluffy and messy hair covered half of his face.

On the half of his face that was revealed, there were two raised scars, and in the deeply sunken eye sockets, there was a pupil shining with flames.

The black-robed old man sat quietly by the stone table, looking down at his right hand.

In the heart of his skinny palm, there is a small dark red flame snake with long fingers, hovering and flying in a smart gesture.

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

The black robe old man is her clothes Huo Yan.

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

Hearing that, the second lady was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly bowed her body and explained with a smile: "Foster father, you have misunderstood Shutong.

Shutong knows that you don't like to interact with people~lightnovelpub.net~ just want to live quietly, so it's fine on weekdays, and Shutong doesn't dare to disturb you..."

Before the second wife finished speaking, Huo Yan interrupted, and said in a low voice: "No need to explain, if the foster father blames you, he won't come today."

Hearing what he said, the second husband breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "Foster father, then you agree?"

Huo Yan said in a calm and indifferent tone: "Of course! The foster father can help you deal with the eldest lady and help you secure your position as the lady.

However, there is one thing the foster father needs you to do. "

The second wife nodded without hesitation and said: "Foster father, please rest assured, as long as Shu Tong can do it, she will definitely not refuse."

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

He put the scroll on the stone table and said to the second wife: "Foster father has always wanted to solve an old problem, and now he has a good eye.

The person in the portrait has already arrived in Zhongzhou City. You have to find a way to find this person and bring him over to me! "

The second lady hurriedly reached out and picked up the scroll and unfolded it. After seeing the person in the portrait, she was taken aback.

It's because the person in the portrait is a little boy in his early ten years.

Although the boy is young, he is very handsome. He has a bit of majesty and majesty between his eyebrows. He is obviously born of noble origin.

Moreover, even though he is a human teenager, 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 closed the scroll.

"Foster father, please rest assured, Shutong will send someone to investigate immediately and will help you catch him anyway."
