To him now, Qi Yan is just a pet that is under his intimidation.

Arriving in Dajin is equivalent to facing a new crisis. Qi Yan has not forgotten what Beitang Shu said. After returning to Dajin, he will use all kinds of torture on her to force her to find out the whereabouts of the jade seal.

If she wants to live, she must not reveal the location of Yuxi.

In other words, she had to wait until Beitang was reluctant to kill her before she could tell him the answer.

The former only requires enduring physical pain, but the latter requires careful planning and is definitely not a matter of a day or two.

She lowered the car curtain and moved towards him slowly, with resistance in every movement, and finally knelt down beside his couch.

Bei Tangshu raised her chin.

The woman's face is the most beautiful in the world, charming and moving, her temperament is indescribable, and every breath is charming.

Although she was silent, her eyes were cold and flat. Obviously, she was still dissatisfied with him, and maybe she was still thinking about killing him for revenge.

But that's the fun part, isn't it?

"As long as you ask for help now, I will let you live a good life for a few days."

She raised the corners of her mouth and sneered, "No need."

"it is good."

Since she has such a strong character, he will help her.

It is now late winter, and the snow in the Dajin Palace has been swept clean by the servants. The snow accumulated on the eaves is falling with the cold wind.

Qi Yan was thrown into the underground prison.

The water prison in this season is the most torturous. On the one hand, the cold will make the water in the water prison more bitter. On the other hand, the underground is slightly warmer than the ground, so the water in it will not freeze.

As a result, the entire water prison was extremely damp and gloomy. The cold was more humid than cold in the traditional sense. The cold wind was like dense needles that penetrated the flesh and blood and nailed the bones.

There was a stone platform in the center of the pool. The stone platform was covered with a huge iron cage, and Qi Yan was imprisoned there.

The cold water was all around her, making her joints sore and painful from the cold.

She kept rubbing her arms and legs, trying to ease the pain in her bones.

But it didn't work. Soon, her limbs were about to freeze. Fortunately, D77 could help her repair the frostbite, so that she wouldn't be riddled with holes from the cold air in the water prison.

Three hours later, a woman walked into the water prison. Qi Yan knew her, she was Qingluan.

Qingluan wore a thick cloak and came to the cage, "Your Majesty sent me to ask you, have you thought about the punishment you are going to receive?"

"Why, do I still have a choice?" Qi Yan rubbed her hands that were red from the cold.

"Okay." Qingluan took out a letter and threw it in through the gap in the iron railing.

The slips fell to the ground and spread out, revealing the contents inside.

Qi Yan took a casual glance and clearly saw the words engraved on it.

Thirty-two, Fish Pendulum, the sinner’s head and upper body are buried in the soil, leaving the legs outside. You can watch the sinner gradually die because he cannot breathe with his legs. His legs flap like a fish’s tail, so it is called Fish Pendulum. .

Thirty-three, sugar-coated haws, take off all the clothes of the sinner, tie him with a rope, and bury him in the snow. After two hours, pour cold water on him, and then seal his eyes and mouth with syrup. After one night, he becomes an ice-man gourd.

Thirty-fourth, the water lily is closed, the sinner's stomach is cut open, and all the internal organs are tied up with fishing thread, like a closed lotus. The wound is then sutured, fed and watered, and the sinner is left to die due to the suffocation of the internal organs in the abdomen.

……

There are various kinds of punishments, all of which are unexpected and useless.

Qi Yan flipped through it twice at random, tied the slips up again with her jade hands, and threw them out intact.

"Tell Beitang Shu that it's up to him."

In any case, she will not tell him the whereabouts of Yuxi.

Qingluan silently picked up the letter. She wanted to leave directly, but after taking two steps, she turned back and reminded her expressionlessly: "You are the first person to survive after assassinating His Majesty, but these punishments are not something you can do." It’s bearable.”

"What do you mean?"

"I can show you a way to commit suicide if you need to."

Qingluan suddenly spoke, which surprised Qi Yan, but it was impossible for Qi Yan to commit suicide. She must live. Not only that, but she also had to find a way to kill Beitang Shu as soon as possible.

But she knew that Qingluan gave her advice because he couldn't bear to see her being tortured. He was actually trying to help her get rid of the pain.

"Thank you." She thanked her sincerely, "but I don't need it."

Qingluan stopped talking, thinking that this pampered princess probably didn't know how dehumanizing those punishments were, and she would probably shrink away after suffering once.

The next day, Qi Yan was taken to the execution ground.

The execution ground of Da Jin Dynasty was magnificent. Many old ministers who had remonstrated had been executed here many years ago. The ground in the square was dark red, which had already penetrated into the cracks in the stones.

The huge square was filled with wooden stakes that were much taller than people, arranged in a 10x10 pattern. There were chains hanging on the wooden stakes, stained with blood, and even the rain could not wash them away.

Directly in front of the square is the altar.

Originally, this place was a place of sacrifice, where the kings of the Jin Dynasty and their ministers offered sacrifices to heaven and prayed. After Beitang Shu ascended the throne, it was transformed into an execution ground. The original high platform was equipped with tables and chairs, making it the best viewing spot.

Qi Yan was escorted to the front by soldiers.

In fact, she was nervous because she didn't know what she was going to face.

Beitang Shu was sitting on a fine huanghuali wood chair. He was dressed in a red robe and covered with a pure black cloak. He looked both lustful and evil, and was particularly eye-catching in the white snow.

That handsome and indistinguishable face was staring at her momentarily, examining the expression on her face.

The executioner held a cracking whip and shouted loudly: "Princess of the Kingdom of Wei, if the following offender fails to report the information, he will be punished by a higher rank!"

The rich male voice echoed in the execution ground.

Hearing this, Qi Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

The so-called punishment of promotion to an official position, the full name is promotion to a higher position, is the most classic punishment, not a new trick.

The wet mulberry paper has a very hard texture and great toughness. It can be stuck tightly to a person's face without any gaps. When the top paper is almost dry, stick a new one up, splash water or pour wine, layer by layer. accumulation.

Until the person is suffocated to death.

Compared with what he saw in the water prison before, Beitang Shu was already merciless in this kind of punishment.

why?

Qi Yan opened her eyelids and stared at the man on the chair.

"Execution!"

Following the executioner's order, several soldiers came forward. Someone brought a chair and pressed her on it. The next second, a piece of mulberry paper with the words "Advanced Officers and Nobles" printed on it was pasted on it.

The soldier held the wine flask and poured the water on the mulberry paper.

The mulberry paper shrinks instantly when it encounters water.

Qi Yan's breathing was suddenly cut off.

D77 was unable to help. When she couldn't breathe, D77 couldn't help her peel off the mulberry paper and give her oxygen.

Qi Yan felt as if her chest was tightly bound, and no breath could come in or out.

Her hands were held tightly by the soldiers and she was unable to struggle.
