Chapter 539: Dead Man 3
As the sun sets to the west, the afterglow of the setting sun almost dyes most of the sky a dazzling orange red. Ah Ying and Bi Xin had been waiting for a day, but they had never been able to wait for Lin Yue to come back.
Looking at the blazing clouds outside the window, Lin Yue sat on a thin straw mat.
She wore only a plain white dress, the hem of which had long been stained by the mud in the cage, and the dark red between the floor tiles and ravines could be faintly seen.
"Smack! Syllable! The sound of the whip cutting through the air echoed throughout the cell, accompanied by several screams of exhaustion.
"Hey, that woman......"
Lin Yue watched as the jailer stopped his movements and turned his gaze to her, as if he was discussing something with his partner next to him.
Due to the distance, Lin Yue couldn't hear the content of their conversation clearly.
"I advise you to be honest, don't look at that woman is beautiful, this was brought in by Lord Xiong, and it is not our turn to take care of it. If you move her, I don't know what will happen to you. ”
The companion also glanced at Lin Yue, and while secretly marveling at Lin Yue's beauty, he warned in a cold voice.
He didn't want to cause trouble to everyone because some idiot had accidentally done something wrong, and the thorny wildflowers couldn't be touched.
Sensing the vigilance in his companion's tone, the jailer who spoke first sneered, a woman. But he answered lazily. "Got it."
"Okay, then I'll go first." He patted the jailer on the shoulder, and his companion took the question to heart.
They are used to seeing this kind of scene as jailers, no matter what their status was before, as long as they get here, there is only one end.
Wasn't it the same with the Huo family at the beginning?
This prison was built in the east of Jiangnan, not too far from the Governor's Palace, and was previously in the hands of the White Mansion, but after so many years, the prison has long become the power of Governor Xiong.
And the person who ordered Lin Yue to be locked up here was also Governor Xiong.
Things have to start from when Lin Yue was brought to the Governor's Palace-
"My lord, the Third Imperial Concubine has been brought!" The man's face was cold, and the guards behind him immediately put Lin Yue up.
Even though the truth hasn't been found out yet, she has already been treated as a criminal.
A cold color flashed in Lin Yue's eyes, and she looked up, only to see a thin man in the courtyard who was dressed in a brocade robe turned around.
And next to him, there is a masked Tiantu.
When Governor Xiong saw Lin Yue, a smile immediately bloomed on his face, and his smug color was fully displayed. "Yo, Third Imperial Princess, I don't know if you remember Xia Guan if you haven't seen you for a few days?"
"Lord Xiong might as well say it directly, this princess also wants to know, when did she kill someone?" Lin Yue didn't give him face at all, and opened his mouth to ask.
At the moment when she saw Tianchou, she already had some guesses in her heart.
Bai Kai died suddenly, and in the blink of an eye, the crime of murder was detained on her, how suspicious is this.
Lin Yue's eyes were staring at Governor Xiong, as if he wanted to find a sign from his face. Rainbow Literature Network
Meeting her gaze, Governor Xiong's face smiled even more, and he could vaguely see a bit of disgusting color.
He rubbed his hands secretly, but he took a step closer to Lin Yue under his feet, and said with a smile: "This Lord Ben doesn't want to embarrass you, but it is only right to kill people, if the Third Imperial Concubine is afraid of death, you might as well beg Lord Ben for mercy, and Lord Ben will intercede with Lord Bai for you, and maybe you can save the lives of the Third Imperial Princess." ”
"Huh." Lin Yue sneered, "Begging for mercy? "Go to him and beg for mercy, she will never beg this dog officer for mercy!
Seeing that this dog official's pair of salty pig hands still wanted to touch him, Lin Yue quickly took a step back, dodging her attack, and the coldness in her eyes skyrocketed, "Forgive this imperial concubine for not understanding what the adult means, this imperial concubine has never killed anyone, so why should Lord Xiong say anything for this imperial concubine?" ”
The blow failed, and a trace of annoyance flashed in Governor Xiong's eyes, but he was embarrassed to attack because of the surrounding people watching.
His face was a little difficult to look at, "The Third Imperial Concubine still don't be reckless, Lord Bai is not more merciful than Lord Ben, if the Third Imperial Concubine is still like this, I'm afraid that even Lord Ben won't be able to save you!" ”
"How can I admit something I haven't done?" Lin Yue was not afraid, her back was straight, and her voice was even more sonorous and powerful, just like her upright conduct.
Lord Xiong was obviously angry, and pointed at Lin Yue with a trembling finger, and came up in one breath, almost speechless.
How could Lin Yue not understand what he meant?
Governor Xu is Xiong found out about the betrayal of the Bai family, which was obviously a deliberate plan by him against the Bai family!
If you agree, even if you admit the name of murder and stand on Governor Xiong's side, but if you refuse, it will be clear that you are an enemy of him!
She Lin Yue, whether in her previous life or in this life, would never give in and admit because of this threat.
What if you are an enemy of the Doge's Palace?
"Tianqiao Gang Master, you have seen it all, since the Third Imperial Concubine is so unsympathetic, don't blame Lord Ben......" The cruelty in his eyes was full of color, which made people shudder.
Lin Yue was now alone in the enemy camp, and she knew that she would not be Governor Xiong's opponent.
At this moment, suddenly a voice came from the entrance of the entire courtyard, and everyone subconsciously looked over, only to see a woman in black mourning clothes walking over, and behind her was a tall guard.
The moment she saw the guard, a bright color flashed in Lin Yue's eyes, and she was so fast that she didn't let anyone notice it.
Unconsciously, the sky had completely darkened, and the entire prison had become pitch black due to the lack of lights, and Lin Yue was shocked to realize that he had fallen into memories for so long.
The sound of laughter in her ears made her frown subconsciously.
The dungeon was filthy and filthy, and it was not surprising that there were rats and insects, and no woman liked such things, including herself.
Shrinking his body a little on the straw mat, the cold wind coming in from the window was everywhere, and Lin Yue couldn't help but hug herself a little tighter.
She didn't know how long she would have to stay here, but it wasn't the first time she had been in prison, and she was more worried about the situation outside.
Although cooperation has been reached with the criminal family and the Qu family, it is ...... She was still a little worried about this guy.
There has been a betrayal, and it is inevitable that there will not be a second.
Lin Yue curled up and lay on the straw mat, her eyes tightly closed, perhaps because of this, the feeling of her ears was even more commanding.
Obviously feeling that the sound of hee hee suo not only did not stop, but also looked at himself a little closer here, Lin Yue faintly sensed that something was wrong, and there was a burst of alarm bells in her heart.
