Chapter 19 Abandoned

It was originally confidential that Shen Yanzhi entered the clan's mansion to interrogate Ren Yuhuan, but he didn't expect that the jailer who opened the door was Ren Tianbao's eyes and ears in the clan's mansion.

When Ren Tianbao heard Shen Yanzhi's anger, he was also puzzled that His Majesty would be so interested in Concubine Shu, and he couldn't help but weigh it over and over in his mind.

It would be bad if Your Majesty discovers that he has power in the clan's mansion.

Ren Tianbao easily concluded that Ren Yuhuan could not be saved for the time being!

That night, he ordered his ears and eyes to leave Ren Yuhuan alone.

Ren Yuhuan, who had not suffered any pain on the second day, was taken out of the cell and brought to the interrogation room.

A jailer was rolling up his sleeves, and the interrogation room was filled with torture instruments.

Ren Yuhuan couldn't help but gasp when he saw it.

The jailer in charge of the interrogation saw the tied up Ren Yuhuan and moved his hands happily: "It's been a long time since I've interrogated a young lady with delicate skin and tender flesh. The thought of red blood marks on her white skin makes me excited!"

Ren Yuhuan knew that this pervert would definitely not stop until she shed a layer of her skin.

Sure enough, the jailer shook the whip in his hand and waved it twice on the ground, then hit her directly.

Even though the pain in his flesh was unbearable, the pain in Ren Yuhuan's heart was even deeper at this moment.

Her father... actually didn't care about her life or death.

Ren Yuhuan had a weak nature and fainted after being whipped more than ten times. The jailer splashed water on him and woke him up before the interrogation began.

"Tell me, was it you who poisoned Concubine Shu?"

"I don't!"

Ren Yuhuan bit his lip, which was already bitten and bleeding.

The leader of the jailers walked in and saw that Ren Yuhuan couldn't stand the torture and fainted. He said to the interrogating jailer: "Okay, don't kill him as soon as you come up."

Ren Yuhuan was finally put down on the wooden frame and dragged into the cell.

Ren Yuhuan woke up in the middle of the night and noticed that the whip marks all over her body hurt. The ground was so cold that she didn't dare to lie like this all night. She struggled to sit up and saw the food placed at the door of the cell.

He quickly started eating the cold porridge and cold steamed buns.

One line eats and the other weeps.

Ren Qianyu learned about the arrangements for Ren Yuhuan from her father Ren Tianbao, and knew in her heart that she had to keep Shen Yanzhi on her own.

After dressing up carefully in the room, he led the palace servants on the corridor outside the imperial study, hoping to meet Shen Yanzhi who was going to court.

This is the only way Shen Yanzhi must pass. The streets are wide and generally no empress from the harem would wander here.

But Ren Qianyu relied on the fact that she was a noble concubine. Anyone who dared to laugh at her would just wait here.

But she didn't expect that Shen Yanzhi had a lot of things to do with the ministers of the court today, and spent a lot of time in the court.

Ren Qianyu lingered outside the imperial study for an hour. Her legs were already swollen from standing, so she asked the palace maid to kneel down. She sat on the palace maid's back and asked her servants to go to the front to inquire. When Shen Yanzhi arrived, he would notify her immediately.

After just sitting for a while, I saw the palace servants running towards me quickly, waving their hands.

Ren Qianyu stood up immediately. The palace maid immediately got up and retreated to the back. The old lady came up to help Ren Qianyu tidy up her clothes.

Shen Yanzhi did not ride in the chariot today, but came all the way on foot. From a distance, he saw a group of colorful people waiting outside the imperial study.

Can't think of anyone who would be here.

He immediately quickened his pace and walked up, only to see the imperial concubine outside.

The imperial concubine has slowly stepped forward to salute.

With a look of tenderness and grievance on her face, she said, "I don't know that Your Majesty is so busy. After waiting here for an hour, the soup prepared may have become cold."

Shen Yanzhi had known the difference between Ren Yuhuan and Ren Qianyu for a long time, but when he saw such similar faces, he softened his heart and said, "Your Majesty, you have a heart." Hearing this, Ren Qianyu smiled in her heart and quickly raised her head to look at Shen Yanzhi: "Your Majesty, are you tired?"

With that said, he stepped forward and took Shen Yanzhi's arm regardless of whether it was appropriate or not.

"When you get in, how about I give you a massage?"

Shen Yanzhi endured her breath coming closer, twitching the corners of his mouth and said calmly: "The noble concubine is interested."

Ren Qianyu knew some massage techniques, so Shen Yanzhi was not guilty.

While pressing, Shen Yanzhi asked quietly: "Your concubine Ren Yuhuan, I went to the prison to interrogate her."

Ren Qianyu's hand froze for a moment, but she recovered quickly, and said with a sad expression: "Your Majesty, what did your concubine say?"

Shen Yanzhi grabbed Ren Qianyu and pulled her into his arms. Ren Qianyu blushed and didn't know where to place her hands, so she held Shen Yanzhi's neck unfamiliarly.

"Your concubine said that she was wronged."

Shen Yanzhi looked deeply at Ren Qianyu's face, hoping to see some clues.

But Ren Qianyu had already known about this matter from her father, and had already dealt with it. She immediately said aggrievedly with tears in her eyes: "I am so touched that Your Majesty actually investigated this matter personally for the sake of my innocence."

Shen Yanzhi saw that Ren Qianyu was not too interested in Ren Yuhuan, so he was not happy and let go of Ren Qianyu.

Ren Qianyu was pushed up and stood aside, a little panicked.

"Okay, Concubine, don't worry, I will definitely investigate it clearly."

Wang Lian saw the right opportunity and came up with a tray filled with twists and turns.

"I'm going to see what happens. Concubine, please go back quickly."

Ren Qianyu had no choice but to make an appointment for the evening, so she said, "Your Majesty likes to eat the soup made by me, but I didn't get it today. Please come to Yikun Palace in the evening, and I will make up for it."

Shen Yanzhi didn't even raise his head, and looked at the situation carefully: "Concubine, please go back first."

Wang Lian extended his hand to greet him, but Ren Qianyu had no choice but to walk away.

Shen Yanzhi looked at Ren Qianyu's arrogant back and lowered his eyes after just one glance.

Without the meal prepared by Ren Yuhuan, Wang Lian could only ask the imperial kitchen to prepare it. After it was delivered, it turned out that it was different from Ren Yuhuan's taste. Shen Yanzhi took a few bites and then put it down.

Wang Lian watched, and when he saw an opportunity, he said: "If your Majesty has no appetite, why not ask the noble concubine to prepare-"

Shen Yanzhi's dark eyes stared at Wang Lian, and Wang Lian immediately bowed his head timidly and apologized: "You are a slave who presumed the holy will without authorization. Please atone for your sin!"

As he spoke, he knelt down.

Shen Yanzhi waved his hand casually: "General Lin made great achievements in the court today. I remember that his daughter is also in the harem?"

When Wang Lian heard this, he immediately raised his hands and replied: "Yes, General Lin's daughter entered the palace last month and is now placed in the side hall of Chenghuan Hall."

When Shen Yanzhi heard this, he knew that he had not been lucky enough yet, so he said to Wang Lian, "Just go to Chenghuan Hall."

Wang Lian immediately went to make arrangements.

General Lin's daughter Lin Yueru immediately dressed up after hearing the news.

The people in the Chenghuan Palace were all in a hurry.

Wang Lian also asked the chamberlain sent to deliver the news to tell Lin Yueru that His Majesty had not eaten.

Lin Yueru immediately went to the kitchen to prepare a table of dishes, waiting for Shen Yanzhi to arrive.

After Shen Yanzhi finished approving the setbacks, he slowly stood up and looked at the silver light outside the hall, knowing that it was getting late.

"Let's go to Chenghuan Palace."
