I was given the contraceptive soup and became the emperor's white moonlight
Chapter 141 Can’t die
"If it were us, you would just confess. Why make it so difficult?"
The chief eunuch Pei Hongyu sat on a chair and looked helplessly at the maids kneeling in front of him. Their faces were dark and ugly, their clothes were torn and blood was oozing out.
The legs of the chair at Pei Hongyu's feet were dark red, and the mottled ground was uneven. The chair made a "cracking" sound as it shook. As the fire on the incense burner next to it went out, the kneeling person looked even more frightened and desperate.
"Oh, the time has come!" Pei Hongyu pinched his shrill voice and waved his hand without changing his expression. The eunuchs around him had already walked forward with whips. Pei Hongyu slowly stood up from the chair and waved his hand at the tip of his nose. He glanced with disgust and walked out the door without saying a word.
"How is it, did Eunuch Pei get the result?"
Pei Hongyu's expression changed drastically when he saw the visitor. The wrinkles on the face of the fifty-year-old eunuch were filled with flattering smiles. "How can we trouble Eunuch Li to make this trip in person!"
He walked quickly forward and personally prepared a chair for the visitor. He bent his body and did not show any slackness when serving tea, even though the person in front of him was not even as tall as his shoulders.
"Isn't it His Majesty who is urging us? We don't have to urge you, but we are doing things for His Majesty." Xiao Xizi took the tea calmly, glanced at him and raised his eyebrows, "You haven't found out the result yet, have you?"
"Those old women are so stubborn. It's my fault that I'm incompetent. It's all my fault!" Pei Hongyu was just about to make an excuse for himself, but when he saw Xiao Xizi's expression was not right, he immediately changed his tone and kept apologizing.
"Forget it, I wonder if Eunuch Pei can let us go in and take a look?" Xiao Xizi knew that they would not ask easily, so she put down her teacup, stood up, straightened her clothes, and walked towards the execution room without waiting for Pei Hongyu to respond.
"Of course, of course!" Pei Hongyu followed him with a smile on his face and took two quick steps forward to lead the way for him, "I'm just afraid that dirty place will pollute your eyes."
"That's not a problem. What kind of hardship can we not endure when working for His Majesty?" Xiao Xizi smiled faintly, flattering the emperor in his words, "Eunuch Pei agrees, right?"
Yes, you are right. It is said that Eunuch Li is so young that he has won the favor of His Majesty. I really admire his awareness. " Pei Hongyu said the flattering words, and a trace of contempt and disdain flashed in his eyes.
If it wasn't for Li Peidong's sake, how could he be so servile to a young boy? It was because he was lucky. If it had happened to Pei Hongyu, he would have become a first-class eunuch by now. Wouldn't he be able to kill such a boy easily?
"Eunuch Pei!" The eunuch who was waving the whip quickly put away the whip and walked forward to salute when he saw Pei Hongyu, without even looking at Xiao Xizi who was walking behind him.
Xiao Xizi didn't care at all and walked alone towards the people hanging on the racks. Those old women no longer had the energy to show off in front of him. They hung there with their heads hung low, looking half dead.
"Eunuch Pei, how about letting me talk to you guys alone?"
The eunuch holding the whip was already unhappy that Pei Hongyu had come forward without permission, and he immediately became furious when he heard him say that. Before he could say anything, he saw Pei Hongyu smiling and responding while waving his hand for everyone to leave. Even though he was full of resentment, he had no way to vent it, so he could only leave with a lot of complaints.
Pei Hongyu's expression changed in an instant as he walked out of the prison door. The guard on the side came forward and asked, "Eunuch Pei, why should we give that kid so much face? He can interrogate him whenever he wants. What do he think of us?"
"What do you regard us as? As slaves! What else?" Pei Hongyu was so angry that he had no place to vent. When someone came up to him seeking death, he had no choice but to take action. He snatched the whip from someone else and hit the guard again and again. After venting his anger for a long time, he threw the whip away. No one on the side dared to come up to meddle in other people's affairs anymore.
"Who the hell is he? He treats me like a dog!" Pei Hongyu was still not satisfied after venting his anger. He glared at the door fiercely and cursed: "If he didn't rely on the favor of His Majesty, he would be so disrespectful. No wonder he is a young boy! He dares to show off to me when his hair is not even fully grown?"
"Wait until the day you fall into my hands. If I don't skin you alive, I won't be named Pei!"
Xiao Xizi raised his eyebrows suddenly. He had a good hearing since he was a child. Pei Hongyu's scolding through the door fell into his ears word for word. However, Xiao Xizi was not very angry. It was not worth it to get angry for such an insignificant person.
He was very clear about Pei Hongyu's identity. Although the people here respectfully called him Eunuch Pei, Xiao Xizi knew that this man was vicious, corrupt and greedy. If he was not useful to someone else, such a person would not have stayed until now.
"Even if you keep silent, we know where you came from." Xiao Xizi raised her head and said with a slight smile. Seeing that they were unmoved, she continued without caring, "Of course, we also know whose orders you followed."
He didn't care how the people above him were shaking in pain, and just played with the torture instruments: "I heard that if these things were to be walked through from beginning to end, even an eight-foot-tall man wouldn't be able to bear it, let alone you."
"Eunuch Pei doesn't have any other abilities, but everyone in the palace knows his ability to torture people." He casually threw a pair of pliers onto the table, making a clang sound.
The shout startled the people above and they trembled all over, looking at Xiao Xizi with even more despair and fear in their eyes.
"Of course, you are not from the palace, so it is understandable that you are not clear about Eunuch Pei's abilities."
"Don't worry!" He grinned more clearly, and scanned between them with his eyes. After a while, he tilted his head and said something with a childish face that made people's hair stand on end: "As long as you are good at talking, you will definitely see what Eunuch Pei is capable of."
"When the time comes, you must tell us whether Pei Hongyu's abilities have declined over the years."
"I, we are not following anyone's orders, eunuch, please grant us death!" A woman suddenly wailed, staring at her with a pair of scarlet eyes, the look in her eyes had long been swallowed by despair.
"Die? Of course you are all going to die." Xiao Xizi spoke bluntly, his eyes suddenly fixed on someone. He walked towards her and said, "We only need one word from you. Say it and you can die now."
