chapter 74
The prison cell of the Punishment Department is underground, and even in the daytime, there is no light coming in here, only a few dim candles.

There was a putrid stench in the room, and there were brown blood stains on the walls and floors.

When I entered the door, I couldn't help but froze.

Then, someone gave me a hard push, and I staggered into the door.

The heavy iron door closed behind me.

The cell has become an airtight darkroom.

The cloth gagged in my mouth was removed.

"Take off her clothes." The leader said.

Two imperial guards came to take off my coat, I struggled a bit, but the force of the other party's restraint was too great, they clasped my shoulders tightly, and I couldn't break free.

"Aren't you afraid that your majesty will offend you by doing this?" I knew that force could not resist, so I wanted to bring out the emperor to intimidate them.

The leader didn't answer me, picked up my coat and rummaged through it.

He searched back and forth several times, finally frowned and asked me, "Where is Yuxi?"

I scolded him angrily: "I am a nobleman of the imperial seal, are you tired of your life when you treat me like this!"

Clinker, he sneered at me, and said with disdain: "We are interrogating spies who sneaked into the harem. This is the duty of the imperial army. What is the crime? Girls should cooperate and don't bring shame on themselves."

Then he asked again sharply: "Where is Yuxi!"

"As I said before, there would be no jade seal without His Majesty's handwriting."

"Qin Baozhu, don't toast, don't eat fine wine."

My heart shrank suddenly, and I stumbled over the topic for a moment.

How...how did they know my real name?
Seeing my astonished expression, he proudly narrated: "Qin Baozhu, a native of Zhongzhou, was sold to Tingyinlou at the age of five, and was redeemed by the owner of Wenxintang when he was 12 years old. Serve as a waiter."

They have found out so clearly about my family, I broke out in a cold sweat.

"Did Wang Lisong instruct you to approach His Majesty?"

I was taken aback, a little confused, so why did they mention Wang Jijiu?What does this have to do with Wang Jijiu?
"Wang Lisong is the teacher of Wenxintang, don't say you don't know him."

"I entered the palace without anyone's instigation, so don't try to make false accusations!"

"Really? Then tell me, how does a pariah from a brothel who doesn't know a lot of characters get on the dragon bed? What does His Majesty like about you?"

He used vulgar words, and he did not hide the contempt in his eyes and words.

I was at a loss for words.

I can't answer this question.

Your Majesty brought me into the palace because I discovered her identity as a woman, but this is a shocking secret related to Your Majesty and the whole world, and it must rot in my stomach and be brought into the coffin.

I kept my mouth shut and didn't say a word, just stared at him.

The leader waited for a while and asked, "Aren't you going to tell me?"

Just as he was about to give an order, he seemed to think of something, and he turned around and ordered: "Go and see her pulse, if she is pregnant with a dragon seed."

The people behind him received the order, pulled my sleeves apart, and pressed my wrists.

The calluses on the samurai's fingertips pressed against my skin, a little burning.

After a long time, he shook his head at the leader.

"Sure enough, it's a tough one. Let's punish him."

After speaking, he sat down on the chair beside him, with a narrow smile in his eyes.

I was sat on the blood-stained bench with my shoulders pressed, and my hands were firmly tied to the platforms on both sides.

A man in a black cloth robe approached me with a weird pair of pliers in his hand, and pinched it on the nail of my right index finger with a blank expression.

"How dare you!"

In the next moment, a piercing pain came from the fingertips.

I couldn't help crying out.

"You have ten fingers. I'll give you ten chances." I heard the voice of the Imperial Guard from above my head, somewhat erratically, "Did Wang Lisong let you approach His Majesty? Did you incite His Majesty to release the traitors? "

The figure of the man leaned down, and a low and clear voice came from my ear.

"As long as you nod your head, you don't have to suffer these crimes."

I took a deep breath, raised my eyes to see his ugly face close at hand, and said: "No one instructed me. I am in love with Your Majesty, what is impossible? My love for Your Majesty is greater than all of you combined." It's all true."

That face suddenly turned cold and moved away from me.

"Continue." I heard the man say.

I thought that after the pain once, I would feel better when it hurts the second time.

However, it does not.

Every time the pain of pulling out the armor made my whole body tremble involuntarily, the piercing pain seemed to penetrate me completely, I tensed my toes, held my breath and tried to resist.

When I reached the eighth one, I didn't even have the strength to stretch my body.

I feel like a puddle of minced meat, placed on a felt board, unobstructed, being run over by the pain, and then run over again.

help me.Even if it frees me.

I prayed helplessly in my heart.

The remaining will tightly sealed my mouth, so that none of the words begging for mercy could come out of my mouth.

Your Majesty, help me.

Your Majesty, help me...

I meditated over and over again in my heart.

There was no light from the outside in the room. I don't know how long it has been or what time it is, but it feels like a long, long time.

Every moment is so difficult.

In a daze, I always thought that His Majesty would push open the heavy iron door the next moment, rescue me, and deal with them all.

After ten nails had been pulled out, I finally had a moment of respite.

I had a hallucination, as if my hands were swollen like steamed buns.

But in fact, the ten fingers are still the same as before, only slowly dripping blood.

The prison door finally opened, and I was overjoyed.

However, it soon came to nothing.

It wasn't His Majesty who came, it wasn't His Majesty who came to save me.

It was a small man dressed as a bodyguard.

I heard him report in a flustered tone: "Commander Du, Your Majesty has rushed out of Donglinmen, General Xu... General Xu died in battle!"

The person who interrogated me stood up abruptly, walked to the door, halfway there, turned back, looked at me, and thought for a while.

There was silence in the cell.

After a while, someone beside him asked, "Commander, aren't we going to reinforce?"

"Are you asking me to go to the commander empty-handed like this?"

After finishing speaking, he walked up to me again, pinched my chin to make me look up to him, and asked, "Which accomplices do you have in the palace? Tell me!"

I could hear the impatience in his tone, so I couldn't help but sneered and said: "You form cliques and do all kinds of evil things, and you think others are like you. If people who are loyal to His Majesty like me are all in the same party, then the world will All the people are my allies."

"Slick tongue!" He squeezed my chin hard and threw my head aside.

"Commander Du, why don't you get on the wooden donkey? I'm sure she will let go." The person who executed the torture suggested.

The one surnamed Du hesitated for a moment, and said, "After all, she is the emperor's woman..."

"Don't worry, we will check her body first and choose a suitable size to ensure that it will be effective without hurting the root. It will be fine after a few months."

The surname Du nodded.

Looking at the face of the executioner, I felt a chill run up my back.

The executioner walked up to me, lifted my jacket, took off my obscene pants without any resistance, and squatted down in front of me.

I suddenly realized what he was going to do.

No!

If someone finds out that I am still a virgin, then His Majesty's identity will be in danger.

"Commander Du, I have something to tell you!" I said to the leader.

The one surnamed Du and the executioner looked at each other and smiled, walked up to me, and said proudly: "You said it earlier, so you don't have to suffer like this."

He bent down and said to me: "Tell me about your plan, how many people there are, and what have you said to Your Majesty."

I stared at him relentlessly, seeing him leaning lower and lower, I took the right moment to bite on the root of his right ear, exhausting all my strength.

"Ah—" A scream exploded in my ear.He instinctively took half a step back, and I gritted my teeth firmly.

My upper body and hands were trapped on the table, which was actually a help at the moment.

The mouth is a little fishy and salty, and I can feel liquid flowing from the corner of the mouth.

The man surnamed Du couldn't get rid of me, and stepped back suddenly, half of his ear fell into my mouth.

He covered his ears and cried out in pain: "Son of a son of a bitch! Let me kill her!"

I looked at the blood spilling from between his fingers, opened his bloody mouth, and smiled at him.

The half of the ear fell out of my mouth and fell to the ground.

He stared at me fiercely, then stretched out a hand to push away the executioner beside me, and said, "It depends on your size! Kill her immediately!"

Soon, a strange wooden stool was moved in front of me.

In the middle of the tall wooden bench stood a round wooden stick about two inches thick and one foot long.

I finally understood what a "wooden donkey" is.

This is the method used to deal with women in the deep palace.

Just like dealing with animals.

I vomited a mouthful of blood.

Can't tell if it's mine or the one surnamed Du.

At first I was able to hold my breath to resist, but soon, I didn't even have the strength to hold my breath.

Gradually, I felt that consciousness was getting farther and farther away from me.I can't hear people's words clearly, and I can't see the scene in front of me clearly, and my body's perception is also dull.

In a trance, I seemed to see the light.

I saw butterflies and saw her in a wedding dress.Then I saw Shaodong's house again, and saw him as a boy.Finally, I saw Your Majesty, she was holding a knife on her neck, her eyes were as tough as iron.

I still clearly remember that she once half-kneeled in front of me and said to me: "I have handed over my family, life and all the inheritance left by my ancestors to your hands."

"His Majesty……"

Orb lived up to your trust.

But I didn't have the strength to say the second half of the sentence.

I closed my eyes and passed out from the pain.

Half dazed and half awake, I seemed to see the backs of His Majesty and the Young Master's family walking side by side.

In front of them is a future that I can't go to.

I am sorry.

I can only accompany you here.
