The wish of the Qing Dynasty is fulfilled

Fat Ju's chest was filled with guilt and longing for Nian Gengyao, and he wanted to show the court how much he cared about loyal ministers and generals. Zhen Huan, Yunsi and Yunlu had suffered a lot during this period!

Not to mention that Zhen Huan was so hungry that she lost her mind, the Eighth and Ninth Brothers who were inexplicably arrested and beaten were dumbfounded.

"You two still refuse to admit it?"

Yun Si, who was always gentle and smiling, had a completely distorted expression. He wanted to roar like crazy on the spot. What did I do? I did it!

Lao Jiu was even more miserable. He was fat to begin with, and so weak that he had to gasp for breath after walking a short distance. How could he withstand such a beating?

At the beginning, he was cursing a lot. Even though he didn't mention anyone by name, he was almost cursing the emperor.

As a result, he tossed and turned and was beaten for two days without any food to eat. Even those who were full of scheming began to get confused. He could even see the stars in broad daylight, all because of hunger!

Since they refused to confess after being interrogated separately, the palace servants put them together and put pressure on them together.

The eighth brother couldn't understand what kind of epilepsy the fourth brother had, but he was obviously unable to bear it any longer. Just when he was about to roll his eyes and fall down, the ninth brother next to him suddenly howled as miserably as a pig being slaughtered.

"Myna, just admit it! I can't take it anymore!"

Everyone's eyes quickly turned to Yunsi, who was half-fainted. Seeing that he was about to roll his eyes, they immediately poured a basin of cold water on his head.

After being betrayed by his stupid teammates to the point of wanting to roll his eyes, and then being "enlightened" by the cold water, Yun Si felt as if he heard the notification sound of his life span -1-1-1.

I'm recruiting your uncle, what am I recruiting for?

When Lao Jiu saw that his good starling was in such a state but still gritting his teeth and saying nothing, he felt both admiration and anxiety in his heart. Don't hold on, brother, otherwise you will lose your good brother me!

"Stop fighting! Ah—— I admit defeat, I admit defeat!!!"

Lao Jiu shouted again to attract the attention of others.

The leading eunuch looked over sinisterly, and his shrill voice translated the words "It would have been better if you had known what was good for you earlier" into a tonal shift.

Yunsi, who was unable to move, also stretched his neck to look at Yunlu, his eyes almost spitting fire, and he was eager to know what this stupid brother had done to cause him to be in such a state!

But I didn't expect that Lao Jiu would open his mouth and cry so hard that the earth would shake.

"I admit...what? Wuwuwu, I listen to my brother. I do whatever my brother says. Ask him. Don't hit me. I don't know anything——"

The father-in-law had obviously never seen such a grown man crying like this, and he was the so-called son of the dragon and grandson of the dragon. His ears hurt from howling!

"Master Ba, what do you think?"

There was a very popular game in later generations. It originated in the Tang Dynasty and was called "Pass the Flower". The way to play it was that everyone sat in a circle, someone beat the drum beside them, and the people present had to pass the "flower" in their arms to the person next to them before the drum stopped.

Even though Yunsi had never actually experienced this game, he could empathize with the loser in this game.

It was as if at the end of the deafening drumbeat, the unlucky person next to him threw something here at the last moment.

Obviously, it's not a flower, but a huge shit pot.

But even if it is a shit pot with gold rim, it won’t work!

Lao Ba's eyes were dull and he was lost in thought. He hesitated for a long time between "Lao Si was looking for an excuse to take revenge and kill him" and "he had lost his memory of the bad things he had done recently" and he couldn't make up his mind.

After a moment, he spoke tentatively, his tone laced with a hint of sincere doubt:

"Do I... have any other accomplices?"

The father-in-law, who had always had an expressionless face, glanced at him as if he was looking at a fool who was struggling to death while asking questions despite knowing the answer.

Then the pressure was instantly transferred to the other side.

Lao Ba, who was detained again, pondered over the fact that he actually had an accomplice. Could it be that he really had lost his memory?

But Zhen Huan, who was brought to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation again, could not help crying.

What kind of accomplice is this???

Nanny Jingqi was also very surprised that the one who kept her mouth shut the most was this tender and delicate little concubine, who had not uttered a word yet.

The emperor has already ordered that we must use all means to pry open her mouth. How can we report this now?

Just at this time, Su Peisheng came to inquire about the progress. As soon as he stepped into the interrogation room, he was stared at by several pairs of eyes, which scared him.

After suffering a lot, Zhen Huan looked haggard and miserable, but her beautiful eyes made her look even more pitiful. Anyone who saw her would be unable to help but feel soft-hearted and pity this weak woman.

But Su Peisheng didn't dare to pity Zhen Huan. After all, Zhen Huan's current miserable situation was caused by the master behind him. If he was a little soft-hearted, he would probably be sent to the Ministry of Punishment to accompany Zhen Huan in a few days.

The two Jingqi maids looked at Su Peisheng for help. It was obvious that the interrogation had reached a bottleneck.

If you do too many evil things, you will have more lice and won't be afraid of the itch. Su Peisheng quietly "gave" them some advice, then turned around and left with a grateful look to report to the emperor.

When Su Peisheng mentioned that Zhen Huan was very stubborn, Pangju was so angry that he slapped the table and ended up hurting himself badly.

"Well, what a man of character!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Regarding this matter, I suddenly have an idea..."

Without receiving any prompt information, Zhen Huan had no idea what to do.

Fortunately, she has not been tortured yet, and the greatest pain she has suffered is just hunger, so her mentality is barely stable.

But when she turned around and saw Liu Zhu, Huanbi and Zhen's mother being brought in, she completely collapsed.

"Mom! How come you were also arrested?"

Zhen's mother shook her head, tears streaming down her face, and told the whole story of how the soldiers suddenly surrounded the Zhen residence, how Zhen Yuandao was thrown into prison, and how she herself was taken into the palace and sent to the Ministry of Punishment.

"Huan'er, what's going on?"

Zhen Huan looked at her mother who was crying inconsolably, and her heart sank.

Looking at Huanbi, whose face turned pale instantly after hearing that Zhen Yuandao was thrown into prison, a guess suddenly struck Zhen Huan.

"I'll recruit! I'll recruit them all!"

"Someone come here! I plead guilty!!"
