Chapter Seventy-One: Torture
Han Xi smiled and shook his head, "Today I helped the queen do something, and as soon as Niangniang is in a good mood, I will have a day off tomorrow, so I can have a good rest!" ”
Xia Yue approached Han Xi with a look of envy, "What's the matter, I'm really envious, I really want to take a day off!" ”
"Don't think about this, you can't make an idea if you're not by the queen's side, the most important thing is that if you make a mistake, you may die. Let's wait for the monthly rotation. ”
Xia Yue nodded, "Actually, I also know that the matter of the queen mother is not so easy. I really envy you, Han Xi, you are too powerful. ”
Looking at Xia Yuexing, she looked at herself and hooked the corners of her lips slightly, "Don't worry, if I can go to the next level in the future, I will definitely make you better, who made us friends!" When you chose to come to the queen with me without hesitation, I naturally couldn't let you be bad. ”
Xia Yue looked at Han Xi's face moved, she didn't expect Han Xi to say such things to herself, it was so touching, she couldn't help but want to cry.
I haven't had any friends in my life, and I had Chunhua before, but it was just because she chose to help Han Xi heal her injuries, and as a result, the friendship between them was so fragile and abandoned.
"Han Xi, you are really good, I am really touched."
Han Xi looked at her like this, and couldn't help but reach out and touch her head, "Okay, it's nothing." It's said that we are friends, so what's so touching about such a little thing! ”
"Because I haven't had any friends, the only warmth I could feel before was from the person I once liked."
Han Xi was a little curious, "What kind of person made you choose to get married and abandon you, but you still have such a mind?" ”
Xia Yue lowered her head a little embarrassed, looking very shy. "He was nice and gentle. The two of us wrote a letter, and every time there was something unhappy in my heart, he would answer it to me. The two of us have already met two or three times, so he and I are really fate. ”
It is unbelievable that a man who has only seen two or three sides can make Xia Yue die to the ground. Although Han Xi understood that these ancient women rarely went out, let alone saw men, they were all found to be immersed in the pig cage.
So two or three sides are already a lot for Xia Yue, but for Han Xi, it is really an impulsive decision.
"But he is already married, even if you have always been a palace maid, after leaving the palace at the age of twenty-five, do you think he will marry you? Even if it's a concubine, I'm afraid he only wants to find a young one. ”
Han Xi's words were cruel, but she felt the need to say it, maybe this relationship was really precious to Xia Yue, but for that man, it was just a dew meeting.
Xia Yue was stunned for a moment, it seemed that it was the first time she thought about this question, yes, even if she was already an old person when she came out of Miyamoto at the age of twenty-five, how could that person still want herself.
And the main thing is that she is unwilling to be a concubine, because if it is a concubine, then her children will definitely be treated the same as she suffered in the future.
Although her mother used to be a wife, after her death, she suffered completely as a child born to a concubine.
"I don't want to be a concubine, Han Xi, I don't want to be a concubine, but I really like him, but I'm afraid it's really too old after the age of twenty-five, and there are still nine years."
Han Xi smiled and touched Xia Yue's head, in fact, for her, sixteen years old is still the age of a child, why do you always have to think about emotional things.
But there are not a few people here who already have children at the age of sixteen, so she can't think about other things with her own mind.
"Xia Yue, this world is very unfair to us women, so we must treat ourselves well. If those men are not willing to give us the best, then why should we wronged ourselves?
The money earned by being a maid in the palace is more than what you earn outside, so what is the wrong thing to do with this money? Or you can continue to stay in the palace and be an aunt. ”
Han Xi's words made Xia Yue a little confused, because no one had ever said such things to her. They keep telling themselves that they are just a woman, and they are born to live dependent on men, so they must be respectful to them, otherwise they will not abide by women's morals.
So Han Xi's words completely washed away all the ideas she had been instilled all along, "Han Xi." Are you telling the truth? Can I really live like that? ”
Han Xi nodded, "Maybe you don't understand my words now, but I believe you will understand one day, you can carefully ponder whether what I said makes sense, it's all up to you whether you are willing to change your own thoughts." ”
"I see, I'll think about what you say." Xia Yue really couldn't accept so much news at once, but she always felt that what Han Xi said was very reasonable. An idea that I had been suppressing in my heart suddenly began to sprout.
Not long after Han Xi finished speaking, when Xia Yue lowered her head, she found that she had already fallen asleep, which made her feel a little helpless, it seemed that she was really sleepy, and it was really not easy to talk to herself for such a long time.
After covering her whole body with a quilt, Xia Yue lay down on her bed, but she couldn't sleep all the time, and her mind kept recalling what Han Xi had been saying just now.
Han Xi was really comfortable when she woke up the next day, she hadn't had a good night's sleep since she came here, and it was really not easy to sleep so satisfactorily today.
As soon as she went out, she heard a lot of talk outside, which made her a little curious about what was going on. So he got around a group of people and said, "Is something going on, why do you guys seem to be talking about something?" ”
They were discussing, and the sudden voice startled them, and they were relieved to see that it was Han Xi, "Han Xi, don't you know, I heard that the little master named Qiu Luo was executed by Ling Chi today, and it was still in public, the meat was really cut off piece by piece, and when there were almost only bones left, she was not dead yet, and she had been enduring this pain." ”
Han Xi couldn't help but shudder, this kind of picture is really terrifying just thinking about it. She had heard of this torture for a long time, but it was still horrible to hear them say it now.
"The torture methods of the Criminal Justice Division are really powerful, and I was stunned that she was completely dead when the last piece of flesh came down. But I also heard that when she was executed, she had no tongue and no fingers! ”
