When the guard standing in front of the dungeon saw Zhou Jin coming, he suddenly stood up straight in a drowsy state, cold sweat broke out from his head, and saluted tremblingly: "I have seen the regent, why is your highness coming to the dungeon so late?"

Zhou Jin's expression was cold, standing at the door of the dungeon, her breath was as cold as Shura who had returned from hell, she was pressing every step of the way, her eyes seemed to emit a threatening light.

"When will this king come, and why should I report to you?"

With just this one sentence, the guards stepped aside tactfully, and did not dare to show their anger. After watching the god walk in, they began to mutter: "The regent came to the dungeon so late? Don't want to release people..."

Another guard knocked him on the head: "If you just want to release people, who would dare not listen to the regent's order, why sneak here in the middle of the night."

"Right."

The guards stopped talking, because there was a god inside, and they didn't dare to slack off guarding it anymore. They cheered up and looked around, as if they had returned to an orderly appearance.

It's just that the rain stopped and the clouds dispersed, and the faint moonlight shining down from the sky shone on the ground. There was a vast expanse of whiteness, and the surroundings were quiet, making the night even more terrifying.

At this moment, apart from Zhou Jin and the guards in the dungeon, they were the criminals who were imprisoned. When they saw Zhou Jin coming, they all held the door, begging Zhou Jin hoarsely to let them out.

Those who beg, those who cry out for injustice, those who admit their mistakes, those who beg for forgiveness...

Zhou Jin was tired of hearing it, and frowned and looked away. Seeing such cold eyes, the prisoners couldn't say a word. The dungeon suddenly became quiet, and only the sound of Zhou Jin's hair bumping up and down could be heard. .

……

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!" A scream came from the thick gate of the underworld. It was extremely terrifying in this quiet night. The guards shuddered and looked at each other, knowing what the people inside were doing. .

This is Zhou Jin using torture.

If it was as expected, he should be interrogating Tao Feng.

But he didn't know what kind of person Tao Feng was, he was so stubborn, he screamed for a while, but he didn't compromise with Zhou Jin.

"Who went in just now..."

A cold voice came, the guard raised his head, and met Shen Lingyan's sleepy eyes.

"Your Majesty...you, why are you here..." The guards wanted to hide it too, but Shen Lingyan understood the screams coming from the dungeon. She pushed away the guards and let Yunzhu wait at the door , walked in alone.

The dungeon was dark and rancid, and the smell of blood became stronger as Shen Lingyan walked in step by step, which made her frown unconsciously, covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

"Tell...who ordered you..." Zhou Jin's voice came from a distance, which seemed abrupt in the dark dungeon.

I don't know how long I walked, under the guidance of the guards guarding the cell, Shen Lingyan came to the one where Tao Feng was being imprisoned, and just stopped, Shen Lingyan turned around and wanted to spit it out.

Zhou Jin noticed that Shen Lingyan was coming, and quickly put down the instrument of torture in her hand, and was about to come up and pat her on the shoulder, but finally wiped her hands seriously, and then pulled Shen Lingyan with a smile on her face.

"Why are you here..." There is no coldness like just now, but it seems that she has missed Shen Lingyan for a long time, and chatted affectionately when she saw him.

It's just that this venue is simply too wrong.

The dungeon was already gloomy, and with the dying cries of grievances from those people, Shen Lingyan really felt like she was standing in hell. Just now she felt a little soft-hearted, but then she thought that maybe these people... are really worse than dogs and pigs.

With such a balance, Shen Lingyan didn't feel so distressed anymore. She slightly supported Zhou Jin's arm and stood up, staring at the big pool of blood on the ground, still a little dizzy: "Why...why did you come here in the middle of the night? Interrogate Tao Feng."

Zhou Jin saw her discomfort, stretched out her hand to cover Shen Lingyan's eyes, and explained in a warm voice next to her ear: "Interrogation is the second time, Ah Jin just wanted to punish this person, pushed me into the water, and His Majesty went into the water to save me. One by one, it is enough to make him turn around."

Shen Lingyan nodded, her eyelashes fluttered slightly on Zhou Jin's palm, Zhou Jin took her hand away in shock, the panic on her face only appeared for a moment, and then was replaced by a hippie smile, she wrapped around Shen Lingyan's arm, and the two Turning his back and walking outside, the guards behind picked up the torture tools and continued, the screams continued.

On the way back, the prisoners all looked at Zhou Jin and Shen Lingyan motionlessly. This time they didn't dare to say a word, for fear that a single word would make Yan Luo in front of them unhappy, and Shen Lingyan was not in a good mood, so they stood coldly. Opening his face, he didn't pant until he walked out of the dungeon, his eyes were red.

"Tao Feng... What happened to him..." Shen Lingyan managed to calm down, and then asked, but unfortunately, once he saw the door of the dungeon, Shen Lingyan could remember the blood on the ground.

"It's just chopping off a leg." Zhou Jin said it very peacefully, and it was impossible to see how angry she was just now.

Tao Feng embarrassed Shen Lingyan in public, which made Shen Lingyan feel broken, and only then saw Shen Lingyan crying like that today.

When Zhou Jin thought of Shen Lingyan who was crying like that today, she felt pain in her heart. She was a murderer without blinking an eye. In her previous life, she should have tempered her heart. Now she is just a good-for-nothing empress crying. Why does she feel so distressed.

Zhou Jin suddenly recalled the day when Shen Lingyan jumped down to save herself without even thinking about it, and it was because of that day that Zhou Jin knew the answer.

"The life of such a person is worthless. When I interrogate him, he can be executed." Zhou Jin was still indifferent, but Shen Lingyan was a little scared. She still couldn't recover from the shadow, and Zhou Jin was not embarrassed She consciously stayed away from Shen Lingyan, and only followed after seeing Yunzhu supporting her.

"Take a good rest and start tomorrow, okay?" Zhou Jin didn't even realize that her tone was so gentle, but Shen Lingyan's eyes moved slightly, she just nodded slightly, then shook off Yunzhu and took her hand, and then pulled Follow Zhou Jin and leave.

"Born as an emperor, one should not be weak-tempered. Your decision-making is very good, and I will learn from it. I will leave for Liangzhou tomorrow. This time, I will not be merciful to those corrupt officials."

When Zhou Jin heard this, her heart suddenly let go. She looked at Shen Lingyan who was looking forward firmly, as if her heart that had been cold for many years was gradually warming up, just like the determination in her eyes.

As for the land of Yongning, if she Shen Lingyan wanted it, Zhou Jin would be able to give it up, but His Majesty, the stupid Empress, still needs to be trained.

It is a good opportunity to leave for Liangzhou tomorrow.

Zhou Jin thought to herself.
