Chapter 418: Arrest and Arrest
Lu Hong got the order and hurriedly sent people to search around the imperial city.
The target to be arrested this time is the palace maid who escaped, so Lu Hong's method of dealing with it is very simple and rude.
He received the order, and with his guards, he scattered all over the palace.
He had already distributed the task and asked them all to arrest the palace maids, while he took a few elite soldiers to guard the emperor's door to protect his safety.
Soon, the good news came back.
Lu Hong's subordinates caught a lot of palace maids, and when they gathered together, the palace maids were basically very panicked and trembling when they gathered together.
It's obviously the same fearful look, but there is one person who is a little different, and the people who can be on an errand in the palace are of course a little bit of real ability, and I felt that this person was wrong at that time.
So they arrested him, but he wasn't the only one who didn't look right.
There were about a dozen of them, but when they got together, they realized that something was wrong.
The palace maid who tried to escape was obviously more scared than the others, so it didn't take much effort for the palace maid to be captured.
After she was caught, she was brought to Ye Hansi.
She was covered in scars from the beating, and she was on her knees, barely able to support herself.
She didn't dare to look up at the Ninety-Five Venerable in front of this person, even if he knew that he was already dead, but she was still afraid, this was a fear from the depths of her heart, an indelible shadow.
Ye Hansi glanced at her, "Lock her up first and ask the truth of the matter." ”
Lu Hong took the order and took the palace maid who tried to escape down.
In prison
The maids were chained to their stakes on all four limbs, and because they had to spare her life for interrogation, they did not use any cruel punishment.
On the contrary, they are punishments that are painful and do not result in immediate death.
Her body was covered with fine and dense scars, and she was bleeding out at the moment.
The interrogators had been trying to get him to tell who was behind the scenes.
"Say, who ordered you to come?" It was the voice of the person in charge of interrogating her.
A thin whip was whipped at her.
She still didn't say anything, gritted her teeth stubbornly, and didn't react at all.
She had actually thought about killing herself under such a torturous interrogation, but how could they have allowed themselves to die so easily.
The scars on her body kept mounting, but she couldn't die.
Now it's not about scars and pain, it's about psychological warfare.
She never wanted to name the person behind the scenes, but kept saying, "I don't know, I don't know." ”
The interrogator didn't expect that a palace maid would have such great stamina.
It's just that if the person doesn't find out, the interrogation can't stop.
Chu Yuxi is here. The prison was cold and damp, with a strong fishy smell, a disgusting smell and a chill all over the body.
It wasn't the first time Chu Yuxi had come to this kind of place, but he still couldn't help but hug his arm.
In fact, she was not very afraid, but when she felt the breath here, she felt a little hairy in her heart, so this was a subconscious action.
Her movements were very small, and almost no one noticed them, but Chu Yulin, who came with her, saw them.
He took a few steps closer, looking like he was going to help her block something, and Chu Yuxi smiled.
They followed the servants, turning left and right, until they walked past many of the cells where the death row prisoners were kept, and saw them either sitting there with indifferent faces, or rushing madly and begging them to spare their lives.
Under the threat of death, they showed a strange appearance.
Chu Yuxi only felt that he had seen everything that people would have looked like before they died, and he was a little sad in his heart. 12
They finally arrived at the place where the maid was interrogated.
You could smell the thick blood from afar, and this one smelled completely different when it first came in.
Chu Yuxi only felt that the contents of her stomach were about to vomit out, her brows furrowed fiercely, and she was still thinking about what that palace maid would look like now.
I saw that the palace maid was full of wounds, and her head was tilted to the side as if she was unconscious, and there was no response.
As she walked over, she saw an errand officer pouring a basin of water at her.
The palace maid woke up in an instant, and the pain from her body made her remove the iron chain with a clanging sound.
Chu Yuxi walked over and saluted the messenger in charge of interrogating the palace maid.
She nodded, looking at the palace maid in front of her who was confused by the pain.
She had obviously been tortured so much that she couldn't bear it anymore.
But he still bit his lip tightly and refused to reveal who the black hand behind it was.
Chu Yulin obviously didn't expect this palace maid to be so tenacious.
Chu Yuxi frowned, the appearance of this palace maid can only show two things, either the power behind her is very powerful, so that she does not dare to tell the truth, or she herself is unwilling to tell the truth.
However, she has suffered so much, but she doesn't dare to confide in her, she doesn't think that this palace maid will be so affectionate that she will refuse to betray him to death.
It's just that she looked at the wounds on her body, which were too scary and terrifying, so the first one was more likely.
She thought for a moment and asked the officer beside her, "Can you let me try it?" ”
The people present didn't expect her to say this, they were all stunned for a moment, but they still nodded, after all, Chu Yuxi is the master, and there is no reason for them to stop what the master wants to do.
Chu Yuxi didn't wear palace clothes today, and she was dressed very plainly.
However, she walked in softly and asked the palace maid, "Do you remember me?" ”
The palace maid heard the voice and opened her eyes and glanced at her.
"You are amazing, under such torture, you didn't even say who was behind you, I really admire you."
Her words did not avoid being said, so the servants present did not understand what he meant when they heard what he said, and looked at each other, but no one spoke.
"But is it worth it?" Chu Yuxi asked her.
The palace maid didn't answer, Chu Yu didn't care, of course she knew that she wouldn't say it, but it didn't matter if she said it or not now.
"You won't say it because of the conditions he gave, so you don't dare, but, you know?"
Chu Yuxi deliberately paused and looked at her: "We have already released the news, you said something, I heard that some people can't help but move." ”
The palace maid finally raised her head and said, "You talk nonsense, she won't lie to me." ”
"Then who can guarantee that, after all, you have been caught, who can guarantee that you will not betray them out of fear."
Chu Yuxi looked at the scars on the palace maid's body.
"If you don't say it, they won't let you die, but they won't make you happy, I heard that there is a punishment, called sweet scars."
Chu Yuxi looked at the person in charge of punishment, "Really?" ”
How dare the man say no, "Yes." ”
Chu Yuxi said that they will sprinkle special fragrant honey on your wound to lure ants to eat, and when the time comes, it will be itchy and painful, and you can't scratch it, and you won't die, so you keep staying up until you are willing to say unknown.
The palace maid had already felt the terrible punishment this night, she had already had the intention of death, and now she heard Chu Yuxi say that if she didn't admit it, she would be hung like this in the future, she couldn't die, in fact, she couldn't live.
However, she was not dead after all, her consciousness was still there, and when she thought about what she might face later, she felt that she had no heart to resist at all.
Moreover, what if what Chu Yuxi said was true, she had already been sold, and that person had already reversed herself.
She shouted, "I said I said! I say it all. ”
