Yu Junze

Chapter 13

In the prison, the blood-stained whip kept whipping on the skin, accompanied by screams.Another whip was applied, and the prisoner couldn't bear it any longer, and fainted. The guard who held the whip whipped him vigorously a few more times, only to realize that the prisoner had fainted. The freezing water immediately woke up the prisoner. Once the prisoner woke up, the whip continued to fall rhythmically, and the shouting continued.

Jing Yan sat beside him, looking at the file in his hand leisurely, as if the tragedy in front of him didn't exist at all.

After reading the file in his hand, Jing Yan picked up the fragrant tea served by the guard, put it in his nose, and enjoyed the fresh aroma wafting from the teacup.

"My patience has a limit. If I still don't get the answer I want," he got up and put down his teacup, and picked up the cold knife on the torture platform. "I will order someone to use this knife to start from your toes." , cut off your flesh piece by piece. Don’t worry, I will use the best medicine to help you stay awake, so that you can deeply feel every touch of the knife cutting into your body. It feels much more comfortable than a whip. How about it? ? Have you figured it out yet!"

A moment of silence.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's start."

The prisoner had already been whipped until his body was shattered, and his consciousness was close to collapse. Hearing that Jing Yan said that there would be more cruel punishments, he finally said, "No! I will tell you everything you want to know!"

Jing Yan smiled and raised his hand to signal, the jailer holding a knife immediately stopped approaching the prisoner and stood aside.

"According to your village master, they are members of the Shangguan family. The entire Shangguan family was destroyed and everything was burned. Where did they get the money to support such a huge organization? Also, how did you Those who sneaked into the palace again and again, is there someone in the palace to meet you? Who is that person!"

"I don't know where the money comes from. Only the village master and the deputy village master know about it. Every time the two of them leave the village alone, they will bring back a large sum of money. As for entering the palace, we only have the last birthday." I sent people in during the banquet, but I don’t understand why you said so repeatedly. And there is no one in the palace to meet us, otherwise the operation would not have failed.”

Jing Yan immediately put away his fake smile, "You said, you only have one time?"

"Yes."

Jing Yan showed displeasure, and increased the tone of the question, "Didn't you send someone to act alone?"

"Absolutely not. How could it be possible to send only one person for such a big matter as assassinating the prince."

The prison was suddenly quiet, Jing Yan paced back and forth, thinking carefully about something.

"During the birthday banquet, how did you enter the palace? How did you bring the weapons in?"

"We killed the folk juggling troupe who were going to perform in the palace, and pretended to be the palace they entered. The village owner said that someone would give us weapons when we entered the palace. To reduce suspicion, we only need them to bring juggling tools when entering the palace."

Jing Yan frowned, it seems that there has never been peace in this palace.

At this time, a guard reported, "Your Highness, the Queen invites you to go over."

After giving Ling Geng a look to signal him to continue the interrogation, Jing Yan strode out of the cell.

In the Fengyang Hall, the queen knelt devoutly in front of the Guanyin who had been enshrined for many years, and the rosary in her hand slid through her fingertips in an orderly manner.

"Crack."

The door opened, Jing Yan approached the queen gently, the light behind him stretched his shadow until it completely enveloped the queen, Jing Yan stopped in his tracks.

"Does mother think that worshiping these ghosts and gods every day can offset her own mistakes?"

The fingers sliding the prayer beads stopped, the queen opened her eyes, and stared blankly at the Guanyin statue, "I heard about it from Wei Xiao, I called you here to ask you, do you hate your mother?"

"hatred?"

Jing Yan smiled lightly, and his tone was full of sarcasm, "How could I hate you? You are a high-ranking queen, you have the right to decide the life and death of a commoner woman, even though she is a woman who treats me like my own child, you killed her, I can't hate you either, how can a son of man hate his biological mother."

"Yan'er!"

The queen tried her best to suppress the tears that were about to burst into her eyes, "I have no choice but to do so. Back then, the king was very fond of Concubine Zhen, and it was very likely that he would pass the throne to the child in her womb, so she had to die. Who would have thought that she would just happen to be seen by the Shangguan? My best sister, don't I feel bad about killing her, but for the sake of my son's future, I can't take any risks, do you understand, Yan'er!"

Jing Yan has no way to refute, the battle for the harem, the battle for the throne has always been the cruelest, all the women in the palace are like this, there is no standard who is right and who is wrong, as long as you can win in the end, that is the right way.

There was a brief silence, tears could no longer be contained in the eyes, and Jing Yan hugged the sobbing queen. This small body was not as tight as it looked, and Jing Yan could clearly feel the thinness under the fabric.

Bai Qing who had no idea how long he had been in a coma woke up, but it was not the tall figure hugging him, but Yun'er, Bai Qing felt a little lost in his heart.It seems that he began to suspect that the figure was imagined by himself.

Bai Qing didn't remember very clearly what happened, he only remembered helping Yun'er find the jade pendant, but he fell into the water, and then vaguely remembered that a tall and warm figure rescued him, that person couldn't see clearly, only remembered the hot Hugging brought him a strong sense of security.Thinking of this, Bai Qing couldn't help but hugged his arms tightly, as if he could still feel the lingering warmth left by that figure.

Yun'er shook the dazed Bai Qing, "How do you feel?"

Looking at Yun'er with a sad face, Bai Qing pulled out an obviously forced smile.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Yun'er carefully helped Bai Qing up, and handed him the soup.

"Are you still dizzy? Hey... If I had found someone to save you earlier, you wouldn't have caught the cold."

Reluctantly finishing the medicine, Bai Qing patted Yun'er's shoulder lightly, and barely uttered a few words from her bloodless thin lips, "...no help...you...worry..."

"Cough cough, cough cough..." Every deep breath was accompanied by a forceful cough, seeing Yun'er beside him was very uncomfortable, so he quickly patted Bai Qing's back to calm him down.

"Don't say that, in the end, you are sick because of me. I will take good care of you, and you can recover from your illness with peace of mind. Come on, lie down, you don't talk these days, if you need anything, I will help you .”

Bai Qing who still wanted to speak was pressed into the quilt by Yun'er, his head was still dizzy, coupled with the effect of the medicine, Bai Qing fell into a deep sleep again.

When he woke up again, Bai Qing was no longer in the pharmacy, and the gorgeous objects that were familiar in his sight all announced the noble status of the owner.No need to think about where this is - Jing Yan's bedroom.

Bai Qing wanted to get up, the hands on her waist were obviously gathered a little, and looking sideways, what caught her eyes was Jing Yan who was frowning in sleep.Bai Qing stretched out his hand to touch this handsome face with sharp edges and corners, and only after touching his forehead did he realize that Jing Yan had been breaking out in a cold sweat.

Sensing the strangeness of the person in his arms, Jing Yan in his sleep subconsciously tightened his hands, like a child who is afraid of losing a toy, tightly confining Bai Qing in his arms.

Bai Qing didn't resist, because the slight trembling from the other person's body made Bai Qing just want to hug the person in front of him just as tightly, even though this person was Jing Yan.
