Quickly wear: There are always those who are not afraid of death and want to torture me

Mo Qin was so stunned by the prince's slap that he didn't even have the strength to stand up. It was Ling Su and another palace maid who carried him out.

He put his hands on the ground and his knees against the cold stone floor, kneeling for a whole day.

The beauty whom the prince held in his hands and loved the day before was punished to kneel at the steps of the palace today.

Her hair was disheveled and her cheeks were red and swollen.People are not humans and ghosts are not ghosts.

When the servants passed by, they all looked intently and pretended not to see anything.

But Cui Yuzhen never even laid eyes on him.Just like Cui Yuzhen said, he must kneel until Mo Qin dies.In his eyes, Moqin was no different than a corpse.

Only Wei Ming glanced at him inadvertently when he passed by. The disdain and disdain in his cold long eyes seemed to be looking at a disgusting phlegm.

Soon, the prince found the movable bricks in the southeast corner.The boy who was responsible for sweeping the long street outside the wall could not withstand the torture and admitted that he was the living brick that was deceived by money.

The guards and servants of the East Palace confirmed that Mo Qin was the only one who had entered the prince's study alone in the past few days.

All the evidence shows that Mo Qin has been plotting evil and sending intelligence to the outside world since he entered the East Palace, which also led to the crisis that the prince's private salt industry was made public this time.

Cui Yuzhen aggressively placed all the physical evidence in front of Mo Qin, looking down at him with an unusually cold look in his eyes.

Said: "Mo Qin, I want to ask you. Did you steal the secret letter from the secret room in the study?"

Mo Qin just looked down at the gap on the stone slab and replied calmly: "It's not me."

Cui Yuzhen sneered, drew out Wei Ming's sword, and hit Mo Qin like a stick with the scabbard attached.

"Besides you, who else knows when the secret guards are not in the East Palace every month?! Who else knows the schedule of night guards! Who else can enter Gu's study at will! Who else would take such a big risk to give Cui Qiu sends the message!" Every word he spoke was accompanied by a heavy blow to Mo Qin's back.

However, the only response to him was denial or silence.

Mo Qin refused to say anything and gritted his teeth.The light white fabric on his back has been dyed dark red, and he was beaten until he was almost lying on the ground, his posture and posture extremely embarrassing.

He would probably be beaten to death.Mo Qin thought blankly.In fact, this is not bad, at least it is a relatively pleasant way to die.

No one stood up to plead for him, because everyone knew that he had definitely stolen the secret message.

Cui Yuzhen finally stopped until Mo Qin lay completely motionless on the ground and lost all consciousness.

The long sword was thrown down by him and fell to the ground with a "pop" sound, making a heavy muffled sound.

The prince lowered his eyes and looked at the man who was rising and falling weakly on the ground and was about to die, his eyes were deep and complicated.

Like a black whirlpool, countless emotions were mixed in it, including hatred, disgust, love, pity and regret, forming a huge storm that seemed to be able to swallow up everything in his eyes.

Wei Mingshi stood beside him, motionless like a statue.

But he couldn't help but feel surprised - he had never seen such complex and strong emotions on the prince's face.

After standing there for an unknown amount of time, Cui Yuzhen closed her eyes and sighed heavily, as if she was tired but also compromised.

Finally, he said to Ling Su: "Go and see if he is still alive. If he dies, throw him into a mass grave on the outskirts of Beijing. If he is still alive..."

"Just find someone to heal his injuries."

----

Mo Qin opened his eyes and saw several golden arcs drawn from the ceiling to form strange shapes.He looked a little dazed——Am I still alive?

He moved his arm slightly, but he only felt a sharp pain coming from his arm.

The only thing that could move on his body was his eyes. After looking around, he found that his body was covered with white cloth, and in some places he could see dark red that seemed to be leached with blood.

The golden arc he saw when he opened his eyes was actually a gold-plated cage like a birdcage, and he himself was in it.The body is cushioned by soft and light satin.

I feel like a bird in a golden cage.

Mo Qin was surprised and shocked, and his emotions were a mess, and he couldn't make sense of it.

I don't know how long I lay there bored like this, when the sound of the palace door opening sounded.

Unhurried footsteps slowly approached the cage, and with the crisp sound of unlocking, the cage door opened.

An unparalleled and unrivaled face appeared in front of Mo Qin's eyes, but there was still a ruthless coldness on the face.

Mo Qin opened his mouth tremblingly and called out hoarsely: "Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

Cui Yuzhen stretched out her slender jade-like fingers and traced Mo Qin's gauze-covered left cheek like a lover's caress.His calm and cruel expression seemed to be looking at an enemy.

The cold voice said calmly: "Momo, you are neither good nor honest. It is Gu who has spoiled you in the past three years."

"Did you know? You have been lying here for three days, and not even a word has been sent from Lingxi Palace. It is clear that they have given up on you. Is such a master worthy of your sincerity and loyalty?"

"Xiao Wu is really smart. He gave the secret letter exposing the illegal salt trade to the Chao family. Even when Chao Lin was about to die, he still wanted to drag Gu Gu down with him, and frantically made a big fuss about this matter. He even went so far as to cut off his own arm and pull out the Chao family's underground bank in the capital. Little did he know that doing so would only make the fisherman gain from the snipe and the clam."

"That good-for-nothing Cui Qiu is like a rat in the gutter. He only dares to hide behind people and play tricks. It's disgusting! His greatest achievement in this life is probably that he has a loyal slave like you, who is willing to use his body and life to Come and pave the way for him!”

Cui Yuzhen took a deep breath to calm down the rising anger.

The tone became weird, entangled, and crazy: "Three years ago, you blocked that knife for Gu. Gu originally thought that you had fallen in love with Gu. But Gu was so confident that he actually felt that you had really fulfilled your promise and put your heart and soul into it. I fell in love with Gu. It was also Gu who underestimated the enemy. I didn’t expect Cui Qiu’s hand to be so long in the dark.”

"However, you still underestimate Gu. Don't think that just one letter can destroy Gu's business arrangements for so many years. You don't have to do anything about Gu's private salt business in Jiangnan. There are also Gu's people in Dali Temple, and no one can really Find out something. But this time, Cui Qiu Ranggu suffered heavy losses, and someone has to pay the price."

"Momo, since you are so loyal to him, then you should pay the price."

"In this life, you will never step out of this palace. Gu specially ordered someone to build a golden cage. Anyway, Cui Qiu has abandoned you, and Gu doesn't want to trust you anymore. You will no longer be Gu's favored attendant. , or personal eunuch, you are just a bird. You only need to live in a golden cage and please yourself. That is enough." At the end, Cui Yuzhen's tone became ambiguous and sticky, as if telling the intimacy between lovers private words.

Mo Qin's eyes widened and his expression looked a little shocked.

He thought about many possible endings for himself - being beaten to death by the prince, being killed by the secret guards during the interrogation, being hung overnight at the entrance of Lingxi Palace to be dried into human flesh, or being exposed and littering graves with mercury and thousands of arrows. Pass through the heart...

But he never imagined that Cui Yuzhen would spare his life...

For a moment, Mo Qin couldn't tell what Cui Yuzhen wanted to do.

"Your Highness...I..."

The prince put his index finger on Mo Qin's lips.He knew what Mo Qin wanted to ask, but now he was close to madness and didn't want to answer Mo Qin's question at all.

He also wanted to kill Mo Qin once and for all, but reason told him that such a traitor should not stay at all.But the resistance and surging emotions deep in his heart prevented him from taking action.

So, Cui Yuzhen thought of a compromise——

Just think that Mo Qin, your favored servant, is dead.For the rest of Mo Qin's life, he would see only loneliness.

Three years ago, he blocked a knife for Gu, but this time Gu spared his life and it was even.

But how can we even out the "love"?
