Feng Chenyi was pulled away from him by many people, and he was dragged very far away and locked up in a dark cell.

When Zhai Yun regained consciousness, she was in a cell. A beam of sunlight shone in from the high window, and she was sitting in a dark place.

She is already in the Dali Temple cell.

The Shaoqing of Dali Temple was Concubine Su's younger brother Su Beiqian, who was still wearing the new clothes stained with Sun Chunan's blood.

The cell was opened and a man wearing the official uniform of the Dali Temple Shaoqing walked in. The man was about forty years old and looked a little hurried.

As soon as he saw Zhai Yun, he panicked and said, "As long as you sign this confession, I will spare your life."

Zhai Yun took the confession, and with her memories of her previous life, she quickly understood the meaning of the confession.

He wanted her to confess that she killed Sun Chunan at the behest of Feng Chenyi, and that Sun Chunan was also brought into the palace by Feng Chenyi. He wanted to use Sun Chunan as a hostage to threaten the Sun family to work for Feng Chenyi.

Moreover, Feng Chenyi brought a scholar into the palace and ordered him to molest the imperial concubine. Afterwards, he used this incident to threaten the imperial concubine, and let the imperial concubine and her family coax him into doing what she wanted.

After reading the confession, Zhai Yun suddenly burst out laughing. "You really are praising the Second Prince. The Second Prince is not favored and has no one from his natal family. How could he have such great abilities?"

Su Beiqian was a little annoyed when he heard Zhai Yun's smile, but he had more important things to do, so he could only be patient: "Just sign it, don't worry about anything else."

"Swish—swish—" Zhai Yun tore the confession into pieces.

Seeing this, Su Beiqian became anxious and said angrily, "You won't listen to my kind words of advice. If that's the case, don't blame me for torturing you."

Zhai Yun looked at him with contempt, "Even if you beat me to death, I will not confess."

Anyway, she has already lived and been to the eighteen levels of hell. The worst that can happen is that she will die again.

She couldn't drag Feng Chenyi down.

Zhai Yun was dragged out and put on the rack.

Su Beiqian looked at Zhai Yun for the last time and said, "The Dali Temple has thousands of criminal codes. How long do you think your small body can withstand them? I advise you to sign as soon as possible."

Zhai Yun looked at him and couldn't help laughing, "You are probably more afraid of my death than I am right now."

Now that Zhai Yun was dead, they had no way to find a scapegoat for Concubine Su's secret meeting.

Su Beiqian was furious when Zhai Yun said this. He looked at Zhai Yun with eyes like thorns, "I didn't expect that a child like you could be so sharp-minded."

I can actually see through his thoughts.

Zhai Yun, hoping for a lucky break, said, "The Imperial Concubine's secret meeting is a foregone conclusion. Do you think the Emperor will let Imperial Concubine Su go for the sake of the royal family's reputation?"

When Su Beiqian heard Zhai Yun say this, he thought that Zhai Yun was wavering and wanted to live.

"When the Second Prince and the Empress Dowager opened the door, Concubine Su and the scholar hadn't overstepped the bounds. So, as long as you sign this confession, you will be exonerated, and the Empress Dowager will at best be deceived. The only person convicted is the Second Prince, who knew about this beforehand. It's no exaggeration to say he orchestrated all of this."

So that's how it is. Zhai Yun understood that she had gone at the wrong time and didn't catch the adulterer, but just had a secret meeting.

It's really not easy for two people who haven't seen each other for such a long time to suppress their impulses when they meet.

That scholar should have been arrested as well. I wonder where he is being held now.

Zhai Yun asked tentatively, "That scholar's trespassing into the palace is already a capital crime. If he betrayed the Imperial Concubine to save his own life, then if I sign this confession, wouldn't that make me an accomplice to the secret meeting?"

Su Beiqian smiled coldly, "I didn't expect that a little maidservant like you who just entered the palace knew so much."

Su Beiqian finished speaking, with murderous intent in his eyes: "He has no chance."

Zhai Yun was shocked. If she was sent to the Dali Temple, did the scholar also go to the Dali Temple? If so, the scholar might not be able to protect himself.

"Have you succeeded?"

Now, every question Zhai Yun asks can ensure her life safety after she switches sides, so Su Beiqian doesn't have too many concerns.

Sure enough, Su Beiqian was less nervous when he heard Zhai Yun's question. He said slowly, "This matter concerns the reputation of the royal family. The scholar is being detained in the palace. The assassins have been sent out and will succeed soon."

Upon hearing this, Zhai Yun instantly found a way to save her life and quickly said in a tough tone, "Since the person is still alive, then you can't blame me. After all, my life is also a life. When you succeed, come find me again, sir."

Zhai Yun's delaying tactic not only ensured that she would not be punished, but also bought herself more time.

She believed that Feng Chenyi was also trying to save him.

I just don’t know if Feng Chenyi knows how to break the deadlock now.

Seeing that Zhai Yun had given in, Su Beiqian said firmly, "Just wait, I will definitely bring his head here."

The reason why it must be a human head is probably because Su Beiqian is not at ease if he can't see the scholar's head.

After all, he is the biggest variable.

In order to save his own life, a person may betray others.

Zhai Yun was locked up again in the cell. The Dali Temple was full of Su Beiqian's people, so now she could only wait.

Zhai Yun died suddenly in her previous life and had no chance to reflect on her life. Now that she is on the verge of life and death again, she has a lot more things to think about.

What happened in this life was very different from the previous life. In the previous life, she grew up being bullied by the princes.

She did not rebel against the Third Prince, nor did she get involved in these things at such a young age.

So rather than saying she is reborn, it is better to say that she is experiencing a new life.

The wait was long, and Zhai Yun drew on the ground with straw.

The cell was dark and damp, she couldn't sleep at all, and her legs even ached slightly.

She also had this problem in her previous life. Whenever it rained and the weather was humid, her legs would become painful and itchy, and she had to wear several pairs of cotton pants when winter came.

In the second half of the night, the cold air outside the cell blew into the cell, and the temperature in the cell dropped by an unknown amount.

Zhai Yun's legs and feet were becoming more and more painful. The winter weather was extremely cold, and the cell was a bit damp. Zhai Yun soon couldn't bear it anymore.

Zhai Yun curled up on the couch, hugging herself tightly.

Her legs were both painful and itchy, and Zhai Yun couldn't help scratching them several times, leaving her knees covered with red marks.

Zhai Yun tightened her clothes, trying to cover her knees with all the clothes, and hugged her knees tightly in her arms, but even so, the cold air in the cell continued to penetrate her body.

Her body was getting colder and colder, her legs were getting more painful and itchy, and Zhai Yun bit her lips hard to prevent her teeth from chattering.

After an unknown amount of time, the sky gradually brightened. Zhai Yun's body, which was curled up in a ball, felt a little numb, but her legs were not as painful or itchy anymore.

But Zhai Yun was afraid that her legs would catch cold again if she changed her position, so she could only hold it tightly.
