Chapter 84: Compromise

This sentence touched the deepest fragility of Xia Ruqian's heart, she threw herself into Mrs. Xia's arms and cried: "Mother! ā€

"Child, I've wronged you, I've wronged you! It's all your mother's fault, if your mother had a little doubt at the time, she would never let you marry into the palace! Your father, he deceived me so hard! Mrs. Xia shook her head and became stronger: "Child, don't cry, we have limited time, don't mention these bad things, you listen well, no matter what decision you make, your mother will support you!" If you decide to follow the prince, mother, mother will never hinder you, but you must think clearly, this road may be very bitter! ā€

"Mother, your mind has been decided. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"Okay, let's stop crying, I'm going to find a way to get you out." Mrs. Xia seemed to have decided something, she took out a handkerchief to help Xia Ruqian wipe away her tears: "Qianqian, how sure are you that the prince will believe you this time?" ā€

"I'm not sure."

"What? Not sure? Children, life is at stake, no joke! ā€

"Mother, although I didn't betray the prince, but, but the prince didn't know, I was worried, worried????"

"Are you worried that the emperor will sow discord? Since the prince doesn't know, then we have to pass on the news and let the prince know that you didn't do anything to be sorry for him! So what do you have to say to your mother? ā€

"No, no, mother, if the emperor knows that you helped me deliver the news, you will definitely be killed! I can't, I can't ????"

"Child, you are your mother's life! If you have three longs and two shorts, what's the point of your mother's life! I'm just worried, worried that I won't be able to get you out. I've never heard of this place, and this time I came in, I was also sent in blindfolded, even if the news is spread, where to find this place! ā€

Before he finished speaking, the guards suddenly broke in: "Mrs. Xia, my subordinates warned you before I came, what to say and what not to say, you must be clear, if you want to go against the emperor, then don't blame your subordinates for being polite!" ā€

As he spoke, he was going to take Mrs. Xia away.

"What are you going to do, let go of my mother!" Xia Ruqian rushed up and grabbed the guard's hand: "If you treat my mother like this, my father will not let you go!" You know, my father is the emperor's man! ā€

"Hmph, the princess is really sharp-toothed, but it's a pity that I won't fall for you!" The guard threw Xia Ruqian to the ground with a strong flick, and then pushed Mrs. Xia out of the cell, and then someone stepped forward and locked the cell door where Xia Ruqian was.

"Shallow, mother is fine, don't worry about your mother, remember, you must live well." Before Mrs. Xia finished speaking, she was pushed out.

"Mother, Mother!" This shout, heart-rending, shook over the cell for a long time.

On the fifth day of imprisonment, the emperor personally came to visit Xia Ruqian. Xia Ruqian sat in the corner without raising his head, letting the emperor talk to himself.

"Xia Ruqian, Xia Ruqian, you know that sometimes when I think of these three words, I feel disgusted! I have never treated you badly, and I can even be your back, but what about you?! Betrayal of me. I don't like to be smart, and I've never been a patient person! I'm ready to give up on you! It's just that I want to give you a gift! Come! ā€

With the emperor's order, the two guards dragged a man in and threw him on the ground.

Xia Ru glanced at it and immediately rushed over, but was blocked by the prison door: "Mother, mother, how are you?" ā€

Mrs. Xia was gagged with a strip of cloth and couldn't speak, so she could only shake her head desperately, signaling Xia Ruqian to leave herself alone.

"Your Majesty, although I betrayed you, but my father is loyal to you, but you treat his wife like this, aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of thousands of loyal people?!"

"Xia Yilin is indeed loyal to me, and even his wife has been abandoned, I want to treat him well." The emperor raised his head and looked at the cell, turned his head and said to Ji Sheng: "Let them serve well, I am tired, let's drive!" ā€

As soon as the emperor left, the guards untied the strips of cloth from Xia Fu's mouth, pulled them to the wooden frame and tied them.

"What are you doing? Let my mother go! Xia Ruqian was extremely helpless, she watched the guards treat Mrs. Xia rudely, but she couldn't do anything.

"Shallow, don't worry about my ???" Mrs. Xia had already suffered a little flesh and skin before she came, and she was dying at this time, she endured the pain and gave Xia Ruqian a reassuring smile.

It's just that this smile is getting more and more pale and weak.

"Ah, what a touching picture of flesh and blood," the guard dipped his whip in salt water, "I was so moved that I almost couldn't do it." ā€

"What are you going to do? What are you coming at me, don't hurt my mother! ā€

"I also want to go to you, but what should I do, the emperor doesn't allow people to touch a single hair of you!" The guard turned his neck, waved the leather whip in his hand, gritted his teeth, and said, "So, I can only beat her!" ā€

"Hmm!" Mrs. Xia didn't want her daughter to worry, so she tried her best to endure it, but her behavior angered the guards, and the guards became even more fierce! But Mrs. Xia gritted her teeth and refused to scream.

"Ha, I didn't expect to meet a hard bone, let me see, how hard this bone is!" The guard threw away the whip and picked up the red-hot iron rod instead.

Xia Ruqian looked at it and immediately shouted: "Mother, don't hold on!" I beg you, squire, spare my mother! I beg you, I'll get you on your knees! ā€

As he spoke, Xia Ruqian knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously.

However, the guard was not moved at all, and as soon as the hot red iron touched the skin, there was a hissing sound, and then the smell of roasted meat spread.

Mrs. Xia gritted her teeth and clenched her fists desperately, she wanted to say that she didn't care about her, she wanted to say that you must live well, she wanted to say that I had already passed the letter to Su Yu, don't give up???? But she couldn't say anything, and she tilted her head and fainted.

"Tut-tut, why can't you help but fight?" The guard looked pity: "Someone! Bring cool water! ā€

"Wait, wait, don't you torture my mother anymore, aren't you just correcting the prince?! Isn't it just a false testimony?! Xia Ruqian closed his eyes and opened them again: "I promise you, I promise you!" ā€

Hearing this, the guard came over and squatted down, stretched out his hand through the wooden door, and helped Xia Ruqian wipe his tears, and his voice was extremely soft: "To live, you must know how to bow your head, you see, as soon as this happens, your mother will not be beaten and faint, how pitiful!" ā€

"I have promised you, please let my mother go immediately!" (To be continued.) )
