Chapter 14: Seeing the Punishment

Murong Yan just stood there coldly, the bright sun shining on his body, but it made people feel the slightest coolness in the warm sunshine. His eyes faintly swept over the bright red finger prints on Yan Yue's face, then swept over the reddened birthmarks, and finally landed on Zhang Yi's body. Without waiting for Murong Yan to speak, Zhang Xiaoyi kowtowed to the guilt: "The slave knows his mistake, and the slave will go to the execution department to receive the punishment!" ”

Zhang Xiaoyi left, and Yan Yue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The so-called heroes don't suffer immediate losses, if it wasn't for Murong Yan's timely appearance just now, that slap would not have been able to escape no matter what. Yan Yue wanted to thank her, but under Murong Yan's cold gaze, she couldn't say anything about thanks.

"Why did Zhang Xiaoyi beat you?" Murong Yan asked coldly.

"No why!" Yan Yue didn't want to answer any questions from this man. You must know that the reason why you stayed in this terrible palace, the reason why you became such a humble medicine woman, and the reason why you are subject to such a punishment today, the initiator of everything is this cold man in front of you.

"You have two choices, one is to answer my question, and the other is for me to let that Zhang Xiaoyi come back." Murong Yan was concise and to the point, and after finishing speaking, he slowly patted his sleeve and wanted to turn around and leave.

Yan Yue almost wanted to blurt out and curse, if this Murong Yan was born in the twenty-first century, he could simply be a professional host on the Happy Dictionary, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was a multiple-choice question, and he had to choose what he was satisfied with. How could Yan Yue choose to let Zhang Xiaoyi come back, and when Zhang Xiaoyi came back, he continued to supervise himself to be punished by this board and continue to slap himself, how could it be! So just as Murong Yan turned around, Yan Yue's voice sounded behind him: "I told him that there was a way to make his cut things grow back, and he got angry. ”

The expression on Murong Yan's face froze there, and Murong Yan, who had always rarely gone out of sorts, had to admit that this Yan Yue had the ability to die without paying for his life.

In order to quickly state her personal position, Yan Yue immediately continued: "Actually, the courtier's daughter is not a bribe this time, the doctor's parents are hearted. I didn't expect that the guild would be so taboo about the condition. Also, the courtier's daughter has already received this punishment, and she was slapped by that father-in-law, can today's punishment be exempted? Speaking of the back, Yan Yue's voice became lower and lower, and finally it was inaudible.

Murong Yan just stood coldly, and Yan Yue, who was full of anticipation, was about to be depressed. He suddenly turned around, Yan Yue saw a flash of white light in front of him, and suddenly felt a light on his body, and all the heavy ropes were broken. "Dagger. Head! This guy actually uses a dagger. The first to untie the ropes on his body! Grandma's, even if you have martial arts, you can't be so careless! Yan Yue's heart was relieved and he was glad, as long as he was a little careless just now, wouldn't his delicate flesh suffer. But it's a blessing in disguise. Because of the slap of her father-in-law, Yan Yue was exempted from the punishment for a few hours.

It's just that Yan Yue didn't rejoice for herself for a long time, and then she heard Murong Yan's words: "Little Lizi, take the medical girl Yan Yue to the Criminal Division to get to know her." ”

Then a little father-in-law quickly ran in front of Yan Yue, and wanted to lead Yan Yue to the execution department. Yan Yue's head was buzzing, and she remembered that Gonggong Zhang just now said that he was going to the Execution Division to receive the punishment, and now this Murong Yan asked the little eunuch to take him to the Execution Division, and there was a more powerful punishment waiting for him. Thinking that he was expecting Murong Yan to let himself go just now, he was still too naΓ―ve to see himself.

"Yan Yinu, let's go." The little father-in-law was already anxious, and he didn't know why this little girl was standing there staring at the emperor in a daze, you must know that it is a great disrespect for the people in this palace to stare at the emperor like this. It's just that the emperor didn't care at all, so he stood there silently, his eyes fell on the distant sky, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Yan Yue was indignant at this time, she was already tortured anyway, why bother swallowing her anger: "Your Majesty, you must know that those who don't know are not guilty, Yan Yue only entered the palace, how do you know that the palace rules are not allowed to give away things, not to mention that the emperor has already punished this." And the matter with Father-in-law Zhang is also the courtier's daughter who wants to cure the disease and save people, without any insult and irony, and the slave and maid even received a slap from Father-in-law Zhang because of her kindness. Others, the slave and maid actually can't think of any mistakes, the so-called one crime and one punishment, why did the emperor let the courtiers go to the execution department to receive the punishment. When talking about other things, Yan Yue deliberately accentuated her tone, only signaling to the emperor that he would never talk nonsense, and only hoped that he could stop there.

Murong Yan's gaze retracted from the distant sky, frowning, his gaze deep and wandering, just staring at Yan Yue, as if he didn't see Yan Yue. Just when Yan Yue wanted to speak again in annoyance, she heard Murong Yan's cold voice: "Yan Yue, if there are two thieves, one thief knows that stealing things is wrong but is still stealing, and the other thief doesn't know that stealing things is wrong so he steals, which of them do you say is better?" ”

"The first type of person is called knowingly sinned, and the second type is called not guilty of ignorance. And I belong to the second type, I don't know that it is wrong to send things, and now that I know, I will not do it again. So the emperor shouldn't punish anymore. Yan Yue almost burst out.

The corners of Murong Yan's lips bloomed with a cold smile, and he stared at Yan Yue for a long time, just when Yan Yue thought that he was completely right, he said faintly: "Of course, the second type of person is even more unforgivable, if a person realizes his mistake, as long as he is guided a little, there will be a day when he will correct it." If a person does not even have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, then it is even more terrible to remain in this world. And you know that you are wrong, but again and again you want to be opportunistic, first to bribe your aunt who taught etiquette and palace rules for less punishment, and then to bribe your father-in-law Liu Xiaoyi for that mouthful of water, what is your medical skill doing in your heart? You keep saying that you want to cure diseases and save people, but as a result, you have only been in the palace for a few days, and you have already caused one person to lose his life and one person to be punished, is this also your duty as a doctor? ”

The sweat on Yan Yue's body soaked her clothes unconsciously. What does a healer do? Cure the sick and save people! From childhood to adulthood, my grandfather taught that doctors are not for money, not for fame and fortune, and in their eyes, the world is not divided into high and low, just to use what they have learned to help the world. And he was just as Murong Yan said in front of him, he was lost for a while, and he actually used the medicine he studied to do some absurd things, which was really against the lessons of his ancestors. The more Yan Yue thought about it, the more embarrassed she became, only to feel that Murong Yan's words were like an enlightenment, and the person suddenly woke up from that muddy nightmare.

"As for what you said, I have said that you have other faults, and I have never held other faults accountable. I asked you to go to the Execution Division just to get to know the punishment of my Darong Dynasty, and every time you think about it in the future, you will be alert. Murong Yan lightly dropped a sentence and turned to leave, Yan Yue's face was red again. Since the morning, Yan Yue always felt that Murong Yan had done it deliberately because of what happened last night, and the emotional family had no intention of pursuing her. This time, it seems that Yan Yue is very cautious.

Walking all the way, reflecting all the way, Yan Yue no longer feels wronged. I went straight to the westernmost part of the palace before I arrived at the Execution Division. From a distance, the penal division was three or four thousand square meters in size. According to the little father-in-law, the criminal division is divided into the south court and the north court. Among them, the South Court is in charge of male punishment, and the North Court is in charge of female punishment.

The little father-in-law led Yan Yue from the north courtyard. After walking down this time, Yan Yue realized that the punishment she had received was only the lightest punishment in this palace. There, Yan Yue not only saw the legendary needle punishment, whipping punishment, pile punishment, burning punishment, cane punishment, etc., but also saw the bloody prisoners, and smelled the thick and pungent smell of blood and stench. I also witnessed a needle pattern. I don't know what crime the little palace maid committed, the old palace man who was executing the sentence used the long silver needle to pierce the crack of the bone, and every time she pierced it, the little palace maid let out a fierce scream.

Out of the North Courtyard, Yan Yue no longer has the strength to look at the men's hospital, even though she has studied medicine for so many years and has seen countless wounds, blood and dead people, but the tragic situation here still makes Yan Yue a little unacceptable. On the contrary, the little father-in-law looked commonplace, his face was always unwavering, and his eyes looked at Yan Yue with a little ridicule.

"Little father-in-law, can you just see it here, don't look at it over there, okay?" Yan Yue was almost pleading, the punishment of women was already so miserable, and the punishment of men could be imagined.

"Please don't be embarrassed by the doctor, the emperor explained the matter, and the slave does not dare to slack off. Thinking about how Aunt Liu died, don't remind the doctor girl. "This little father-in-law is not very old, but he is an old man, a typical tone of an old palace man educating newcomers. These words were soft and hard, and they mentioned the dead Aunt Liu. Yan Yue couldn't say anything else, so she could only stand up and walk towards the men's courtyard.

Next, Yan Yue saw the ancient "oil pot", "hanging", "stabbing punishment", "live skinning" and so on, fortunately, there were only torture instruments in these torture rooms, and there was no execution of the punishment. However, there was a room where the punishment was being carried out, and there were many onlookers, Yan Yue asked curiously, only to know that it was actually the place where the palace punishment was carried out, and it was also used as the place of castration surgery.

This made Yan Yue suddenly come to her senses, for the ancient eunuch Yan Yue had always been curious about how the operation was done, and she didn't expect to have the opportunity to see it with her own eyes. The little father-in-law didn't understand how the little girl in front of him could suddenly become excited about this castration, and he wasn't afraid of the bloody scene. Fortunately, the little father-in-law explained that Yan Yue appeared here to watch by the emperor's order, so he was not driven out by those people.

There was no anesthesia, but the cleanser was drunk, stripped off his clothes and trousers, blindfolded, and lay down on the stone slab with his hands and feet tied. One person is responsible for the operation, and the two next to him are responsible for pressing the head and waist to prevent the cleanser from struggling with pain and causing the operation to fail. Yan Yue stared at the man in charge of the operation fixedly, as a doctor, Yan Yue knew that there were many tendons in the back of the **, if he was not careful, it would lead to heavy bleeding, and the person who purified his body would lose his life. I saw that his face was blank, and the sharp knife in his hand skillfully cut along the root of the ** of the purifier, fast and perfect. After cutting, some hemostatic medicine was applied directly. The whole process took only ten minutes.

Marvel! It's a miracle! Yan Yue couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Who dares to say that this ancient medical technology is underdeveloped, but they put the direction of medical research on the castration research. This time, Yan Yue was forced by the little father-in-law to come out of the execution department. Goodbye to the blue sky, the dazzling sun, Yan Yue has a feeling of being reincarnated.

"The emperor asked the servants to explain to the medical girl, and don't forget your identity at any time." The little father-in-law explained cautiously.

Yan Yue suddenly thought for a while, this is Murong Yan's true purpose! As smart as him, as wise as him, he has already guessed from various signs and strange things in the past that he is no longer Yan Yue. And leaving Yan Yue's life is just useful. During this period, what he wanted Yan Yue to do was to always remember his identity, keep his duty, and dress up as the little humble doctor girl of the Darong Dynasty.
