Liushuang came back so late, which really made Gu Yan not expect, and she already knew that Liushuang was actually not a palace maid who was waiting, but the female guards beside Shen Zhongbai, and it was also the person arranged by Shen Zhongbai in order to protect herself. Judging from the current situation, Liushuang can indeed protect himself to a certain extent, and there is no harm in staying by his side for the time being.

It's just that there is a person who knows martial arts around her, it's really hard to hide from her eyeliner, Gu Yan just read an inconsequential note today, and she has already worked so hard, if there is really something important, she still has to hide underground?

On the contrary, he met the adultery between Shen Zhongyan and Concubine Yu by mistake, and it was really embarrassing to see such a scene, but he didn't want to care about these things at all, so he didn't do anything more, and told Shen Zhongbai about it, in case there was no evidence, he would provoke the jealousy of Concubine Yu.

Gu Yan has seen the things in this palace very thoroughly these days, no matter what, she doesn't care about other people's affairs, she is always on guard, and she can barely get that over, anyway, she is not really ready to stay in the palace for a lifetime, these rules are just to save her life for a while.

However, the note left by Shen Qianshan only had a few words, as if it was a gossip, and he really didn't understand what it meant, but fortunately, it was only one sentence, even if he had thrown the note into the water, the content of the note had already been remembered by himself.

It was rare that Liushuang didn't follow her all the time, Gu Yan felt a little relaxed, knowing that Liushuang was standing in front of her with a dumb face, Gu Chang realized that it was very likely that something happened yesterday.

Sure enough, the matter between the fifth prince and Concubine Yu still couldn't contain the fire in the paper, and Gu Yan only learned about it after listening to Liushuang.

Others don't know, who in this palace doesn't know, the five princes have always been in good health, does it mean that they died of a violent illness, and they can pass it so easily?

In the eyes of outsiders, the violent death of the five princes and the matter of Concubine Yu seem to have nothing to do with it, however, Gu Yan bumped into the two of them yesterday for fornication, thinking that it was too rampant, and was discovered by Shen Zhongbai, with Shen Zhongbai's cautious character, even if he cares about face, he will definitely not leave the five princes behind.

It's just that I didn't expect that Shen Zhongbai would let Concubine Yu comb the punishment, since Fuqiang's memory, no one in the entire dynasty has been combed to death, the feeling of scraping off the skin and flesh with an iron comb little by little is really creepy to think about, when Gu Yan was young, he had seen such an execution scene described in a book.

In that kind of scene, Gu Chang feels very uncomfortable when she thinks about it now, and her stomach suddenly turns upside down, Gu Chang immediately let go of the book in her hand, leaned sideways and began to retch, but these days in the palace, such and such things always happen around Gu Chang, and her appetite is really much worse.

"Your Royal Highness, what's wrong with you?" Since she knew that it was Feixue who helped her deal with that matter, Gu Yan has always had a very good impression of Feixue, but she didn't fully trust it, after all, Feixue was the person sent by Gu Zhihua, and she let her go last time, not because of sympathy, but just to avoid Gu Zhihua arranging a person to come over, and she still had more worries and scruples.

Gu Yan waved her hand, folding oh degree is not the point, the point is that Shen Zhongbai ordered that all the women in the harem should go to watch the beheading......

Shen Zhongbai also deliberately asked Liushuang to tell Gu Yan, although there was no intention of forcing it, it was obvious enough to remind Gu Yan that her every move was likely to be related to Shen Qianshan outside the palace.

Gu Yan didn't change her clothes, she forcibly endured the feeling of turning over the river and the sea in her abdomen, and stood up, "Are you going now?" ”

"That's natural, His Royal Highness the County Lord is going to go." Liushuang didn't hesitate to speak, and it was already commonplace to think of such a scene, but Gu Yan might not be able to stand such a scene.

Gu Yan made mental preparations for a long time, but he still couldn't bear it, when he arrived at the court, Concubine Yu had already been hanged, it seemed that last night, she must not have had a very good time, her body was covered with traces of various whips, and the face of pear blossoms with rain also became hideous.

Concubine Yu was hanging on the torture rack, as if she had lost consciousness, Shen Zhongbai was not prepared to bypass her like this, and motioned to the person standing on the execution ground to splash her awake with salt water.

The wounds on Concubine Yu's body were all open and fleshy, and she was hit by the salt water, and she instantly cried out heartbreakingly, how much Gu Yan hated at this time, her eyes were so good, and she could see so much salt added to the barrel of salt water from such a distance, so that a lot of salt grains of white flowers slowly flowed on Concubine Yu's body along the laxative.

The wound with deep visible bones was sprinkled with salt, and Gu Yan couldn't imagine that it hurt...... She clutched the corner of her clothes tightly, it was obvious that Shen Zhongbai had already arranged people around the court, obviously, if she entered the trembling person, she couldn't easily go out today.

Concubine Yu was hanging, there was no way to struggle, and a terrible shout stung Gu Yan's eardrums, Gu Yan pursed her lips, afraid that she would not be able to suppress her emotions and completely collapse.

Shen Zhongbai has a lot of concubines around him, and there are also many official ladies who are about to enter the palace, Shen Zhongbai asked them to come to see Concubine Yu to comb the punishment, but it was because she was about to ascend the throne, but her position was still unstable, and there were not necessarily other concubines in her harem, and she also had this idea.

Shen Zhongbai's move is nothing more than to warn everyone not to have any luck with any intention of rebellion, she wants everyone to know that he, Shen Zhongbai, is not a character to mess with, if anyone betrays him, it is very likely that he will end up like Liu Xingyu.

Liu Xingyu's mother family is a bachelor in the current dynasty, and actually controls most of the power in the court, and now, Shen Zhongbai has mastered the officials up and down the court, and the current university scholar is simply vulnerable in Shen Zhongbai's eyes, he originally thought that if Liu Xingyu was honest and did his duty as his side concubine, he might still keep the Liu family.

It's just that he didn't expect that Liu Xingyu was so bold that he dared to collude with Shen Zhongyan under his nose and want to steal his token, which is not only related to his own regime, but also related to his dignity as a man, so Shen Zhongbai didn't do anything and directly copied the Liu family.

Liu Xingyu had no strength to shout, but the salt water remained on her body, as long as she struggled slightly, as soon as the wound touched her clothes, the stinging pain would still continue

When many concubines saw such a scene, they couldn't bear to continue watching it, only Shen Qiangrose still had a calm and natural face, and she didn't seem to be touched by the scene in front of her.

"Your Highness, please give the Liu family a happy ......"

Liu Xingyu, who was hanged, didn't know how many times he had begged like this, but Shen Zhongbai, who was sitting in the middle of the execution table, was still indifferent, looked at the sun above his head, waved his hand, and signaled that the execution would begin.

Gu Yan didn't want to look at it deliberately, but she couldn't ignore it, Liu Xingyu on the gallows, the mournful scream, and the comb of the sticker kept scratching Liu Xingyu's skin, which was too cruel for a girl......

Gu Yan still remembers that the last time she saw Liu Xingyu, she also deliberately paid attention to this Concubine Liu, perhaps because she was pampered since she was a child, her skin was excellent, and she looked like she could be blown and broken, but now she was unrecognizable, and even a complete piece of skin on her body could no longer be seen.

Most of the concubines had already turned their heads, and they didn't dare to look at the court with their eyes closed, I don't know if it was intentional, Shen Qiangrose seemed to be in a good mood, and walked in front of Gu Yan with a sway, "Sister Chang'er, why don't you look there?" Such a good scene is not something that can be seen very often. ”

Gu Yan had already endured it to the limit, and as soon as Shen Qiangrose said it, she subconsciously opened her eyes, and just happened to see Liu Xingyu, who had been stripped of a layer of skin, but was still not dead, and was still begging for mercy hoarsely.

All the nervousness and fear rose to the extreme at this moment, Gu Yan turned around and vomited, but she hadn't eaten well recently, she was not in good spirits, and she had suffered so many things before, she was nervous, but now it was good, the whole person fainted all of a sudden, if it wasn't for the frost behind her, I am afraid she would have fallen out.

"Concubine Shen, what do you mean by this......

Liushuang is also a slightly better psychological quality, and when he sees such a scene at this time, he almost can't hold on.

Originally, the county lord of Changning could barely bear it, and His Royal Highness the Third Prince did not force him to open his eyes and keep staring at Liu Xingyu, but Shen Qiangrose just wanted to come over to remind her what was happening in front of her, now it's okay, a young lady from a big family, she has never seen such a scene, how can she bear it?

Shen Qiangrose didn't care, "I thought that the well-informed lord of Changning County shouldn't be scared by these things, but I didn't expect it to be so serious?" ”

The most powerful thing about Shen Qiangrose is the dusty aura of a woman in his green building, even if a woman sees it, she thinks I feel pitiful, let alone a man, her words are obviously crooked heresy, but Liushuang can't find a word to refute it.

"Your Highness, the county lord of Changning has fainted, can you let your subordinates take the county lord back first?"
