"Mother......

Lin Xiaoli stared at the face that was close at hand, and choked out. The body seemed to be deflated, and fell beside Lin Mu.

She raised her hand and wanted to wipe the blood on Lin Mu's face with her sleeve, but she forgot that her sleeve was also full of blood.

Lin Xiaoli looked at the face that was being rubbed more and more by her in distraction, and this face gradually coincided with the gentle face in her memory.

She leaned on Mother Lin's shoulder, her arms wrapped around her weakly.

"Mother...... Are you okay when you wake up...... Are you angry with Oak, Blame Oak came to the palace on her own initiative, so you want to scare Oak, right......"

"Mother...... Don't pretend to be asleep anymore, Oak Er will never make her mother angry in the future, Oak Er will be absolutely obedient in the future......"

"Mother...... Are you okay when you wake up......"

The silent cell echoed with Lin Xiaoxi's cries, like the mournful whimpering of a little beast.

It's night

After Hu Daochang reported the situation to Prime Minister Jiang, he did not leave the Prime Minister's Mansion, but turned around and walked towards the back garden.

"Congratulations, you're one step closer to revenge."

"It's thanks to you, Miss." Hu Daochang leaned over and smiled at the beautiful girl in front of him.

The moonlight fell softly on the girl, reflecting her beautiful face. This person is Jiang Shuying.

"And then it's going to go as planned."

"By the way, treat Lin Xiaoli well these days, but I can't let her die, no matter what, I have to wait for me to get tired of playing first!"

The cold moonlight still fell on the girl's body, but it didn't have the beauty just now. is obviously expressionless, but it inexplicably makes people's hearts cold.

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

A few months later, the Lin family's father and son returned to the court, and before they entered the city gate, they were arrested by Emperor Kangyou on the charge of rebellious ministers and thieves.

Countless soldiers went in and out of the Lin family, taking away one after another embarrassed and struggling figures.

For a while, everyone in the capital was in danger, for fear that the next person to suffer would be themselves.

At this time, Lin Xiaoli had already been transferred from the prison to the Jiang family's dungeon.

After several months of torture by Jiang Shuying, Lin Xiaoli has long been out of human form:

Her severed hand was not taken back, and her leg was bent into a strange shape. Her face was all mottled with blood, and the only eyes and tongue that survived were because Jiang Shuying liked her painful eyes and voice.

Lin Xiaoli was hanging from the torture rack in his last breath, deaf to the screams coming from the other end of the cell. No, it should be said that in these months, she has become accustomed to such a voice.

Hu Daochang walked in front of Lin Xiaoli, and his leisurely appearance seemed to be not in the gloomy and terrifying prison, but in his back garden.

The men on the torture rack heard his footsteps, but they still kept their heads down, as if they were used to his occasional arrival.

"General Lin and Vice General Lin have returned, what do you say will happen to them who are accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason?"

Hu Daochang smiled carelessly, but it made Lin Xiaoli feel a chill in his heart.

"What did you do!" Lin Xiaoli stared at Hu Daochang viciously, and the chains on his body clanged. She wanted to bite off his neck, but her weak body and strong chains could only make her look at Hu Dao's smug smile, but she couldn't do anything.

"I really like the way you look at the moment, I was the same as you are now, tsk."

"Soon you will be able to see them, and I am sure that you will never forget them."

After speaking, Hu Daochang turned around and left the cell, as if he didn't hear Lin Xiaoli's ghost-like screams behind him.
