Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

"I won't leave anymore. I really don't. I don't want to leave anymore. It hurts too much. Confess, I will confess."

As long as they confess the truth, they can avoid further torture and suffer physical pain.

Rong Pei lay on the wooden board beside her with her face up, gasping for breath in pain.

"Okay, then tell me."

"Let me, let me, explain, it's not impossible, but that惢心, the one who came in with me, has she explained?"

The man in charge of the torture raised an eyebrow and said jokingly, "Don't worry, it will be her turn after you finish your instructions."

"No, if she doesn't tell me first, I won't tell her either."

"Heh, you're about to die and you're still trying to negotiate terms with me. If that's the case, then let's continue."

When Rong Pei heard that the other party was going to continue the torture, she almost shouted "No!" with all her might.

"Rong Pei, Rong Pei, just tell me, this way you can avoid some physical pain."

Li Yu thought that if Rong Pei could tell the truth,惢心 would suffer less.

You can also get beaten less.

One for two is a good deal no matter how you look at it.

But when these words fall into the ears of others, they don't mean the same thing.

"I didn't know they had some friendship."

"Hey, aren't you overstepping your bounds? This isn't your business."

Fu Heng looked at Hailancha expressionlessly, said nothing, turned around and left the Ministry of Punishment.

Hailancha was completely speechless.

This guy came here for a long time just to say such an ambiguous statement?

What's the matter? Is he interested in that old lady?

Oh my god, I really vomited.

He doesn't want to lead his good brother astray.

"You should wait for me!"

Hailancha chased after him.

This Ministry of Punishment is dark and damp, it is simply not a place for human beings to stay.

-

"Hey! You are so unreasonable!"

"Who are you!"

Ling Yunche stared at the person in front of him with a vigilant look.

The little girl looked young. She held the medicine bowl in one hand and pinched her waist with the other hand. She stood in front of Ling Yunche with a pair of round eyes staring at him.

"You were lying on the side of the road begging me and my mother to save you, and this is how you talk to me!"

Ling Yunche lowered his eyes, realizing that he had indeed gone too far, and softened his tone, "Sorry."

"Hmph! I left the medicine for you, drink it yourself! I've spent ten taels of silver treating you these past few days, return it to me quickly."

"Miss, can you please forgive me? I don't have any money on me."

The other party obviously knew this. She rolled her eyes and then said with a smile, "In that case, you can stay and work as a long-term worker to pay back the money."

"it is good."

With him around, she and her mother don't have to go to those dangerous places.

If you don't use it, you won't use it.

It would be appropriate to let him go to collect herbs.

"Since you agree, just give your fingerprints!"

After saying that, the little girl took out a piece of paper from the front of her clothes, grabbed Ling Yunche's finger without any hesitation, pricked it, and pressed the fingerprint neatly.

From beginning to end, Ling Yunche was not given any chance to hesitate.

"You, what is this you pressed on me?"

It was all in Manchu, and the handwriting was crooked, so it was normal that Ling Yunche didn't recognize it.

The girl stuffed the paper back into the front of her clothes and said perfunctorily, "To be a long-term worker, of course you have to sign a contract. Okay, I'm leaving now."

"Wait--"

"boom--"

Before Ling Yunche could ask where this was, the door had already closed and not even a figure could be seen.

He is selling himself out in disguise.

I don’t even know the owner’s name.

He always felt uneasy.

I don’t know how the imperial concubine in the capital is doing. I haven’t heard from her for several days.

His chest always felt stuffy, and coupled with the injuries on his body and the fact that someone might take him back at any time, Ling Yunche was now physically and mentally exhausted and couldn't even get a good night's sleep.

Ever since leaving the capital, he has been tortured to the point of being emaciated.

His eyes were deeply sunken in his eye sockets, his hair was dry and messy like a chicken coop, his beard was unshaven, his lips were dry and cracked, and he looked decades older.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is an old man.

At this time, Ruyi, who was far away in the capital, finally received the news, and Li Yu also entered the Ministry of Punishment.

The bracelet she hid in the pastries for Hailan was also messed up by Li Yu and was actually seen by the emperor.

"Crash!!!"

"Useless! Are these two useless? They can't even handle such a small matter!"

Ruyi was so angry that she smashed things around the house.

She smashed almost all the bottles and jars that could be smashed.

Several maids did not dare to enter the room and just let the imperial concubine go crazy in the room.

"What kind of a deal is this? It's just a delivery of cakes. How could Eunuch Li Yu be sent to the Ministry of Punishment?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't let the person inside hear you."

"I never thought that the Imperial Concubine, who is always as calm as a chrysanthemum in front of others, would be so terrifying when she gets angry."

"Okay, stop complaining. It looks like we'll be able to go back soon."

Suddenly, Ruyi appeared at the door, her eyes gleaming with sternness as she angrily shouted down from above, "What are you talking about? If you don't want it, just cut it off!"

On the palace road outside the Yiku Palace, Hongli was sitting on the dragon chariot and listening with his eyes closed.

The sound of porcelain breaking continued to ring out.

Interspersed in it was Ruyi's cursing. Even if you couldn't see her, you could tell that she didn't look like a lady from a noble family at all.

Jinzhong was quietly waiting below, and he would never speak unless the emperor told him to pass on the message.

Perhaps the noise inside was too harsh, and no one in Yikun Palace knew that the emperor was right outside the door at this moment.

Hongli looked at the two seven-treasure bracelets in his hands and finally sighed.

Jinzhong understood and immediately called people back to the Yangxin Palace.

If the Imperial Noble Concubine had not vented her anger like this when Hongli came over tonight, the Emperor might have been put in jail.

The opportunity was right in front of me, but I couldn't grab it.

On the other side, Hai Lan was wandering around the palace road in a restless state.

In the afternoon, Ye Xin searched for a long time before finding Zhao Jiuxiao.

But what followed was bad news.

Li Yu entered the Ministry of Punishment.

Upon hearing the news, Hai Lan immediately went to Yiku Palace to investigate the situation.

"Are you sure you saw the emperor leaving from the Yikun Palace?"

"I'm sure I'm not mistaken."

"What should I do? Li Yu has been imprisoned in the Ministry of Punishment, which means he must have been exposed. But the Emperor hasn't said anything yet, which means my sister will be fine for now. What should I do?"

"Master, why bother? Even if it succeeds, it will benefit the Imperial Concubine. You might as well take this opportunity to sit in that position yourself."

"Nonsense! I don't want to hear that kind of talk again, do you understand?"

No matter how unwilling Ye Xin was, he could only lower his head and dared not speak any more.

Ruyi continued to vent her anger until the second half of the night, and finally the sound of smashing things stopped in the house.

I guess he was too tired to do it and fell asleep.
