Chapter 65: A Torture Instrument That Makes Life Worse Than Death
Pei Yuanchen? How could it be him?!
I looked at the man in front of me in amazement with a grim smile on his face, as if looking at an ant that was pinched in his hand and killed alive.
How could it be him? How could it be him?!
Before the shock in his heart had passed, he had already reached out and lifted my chin, looked me up and down, and smiled coldly in his eyes.
"Tut, in the past two days, I have turned off all the little water spirit."
As he spoke, he put his hand on my forehead again: "I'm still sick, it looks like I'm not having a good time in prison." β
I looked at him and suddenly understood something.
In the past few days, my life has been extremely difficult, not only because of the old injuries and low-grade fever, but also because the jailer has not given me a good face, and the food sent me is either bad or not at all, in this case, I can live to this day, and I feel that it is a miracle.
I thought that those jailers decided that I had poisoned the queen and secretly made things difficult for me, so even if Pei Yuanfeng came, I didn't sue him, but now I understand a little.
It was the four princes in front of him who secretly instructed him.
Why, is it because of the sneering of my lips at the feast that night?
Just thinking about it, Pei Yuanchen had already leaned into my ear and said softly: "Actually, it's easy to live a good life, as long as you sue the clan, who is the main messenger behind the scenes who instructed you to poison, the clan will naturally plead with the queen for you and let you go." β
My heart moved slightly.
Turning his head to look at him, he was close at hand, and the eyes of the two of them flashed with essence: "Your Highness, this case was handed over by the emperor to the Third Highness for interrogation, right?" β
"Hmph, but you don't know, the queen asked this clan to supervise the case, just because she was afraid that some people would take advantage of this convenience to exonerate themselves." As he spoke, he got a little closer, and I could almost hear his eager heartbeat: "Sue SΓΉ Benfan, who instructed you, isn't-"
It turned out that he was here for this.
No wonder he came to the prison late at night to interrogate me, there was no triostery, no side discussion, only a small scribe beside him, his eyes staring straight at me, as soon as I spoke, his pen would immediately fall.
And once I confessed my guilt -- I looked around, and those indifferent eyes knew what was going to happen to me.
Did the queen ask him to supervise the case, did she want him to be beaten into a trick and framed?
If so, then why did you hand over the case to Pei Yuanhao to investigate?
My mind was in chaos, but I still tried my best to keep myself awake, and said respectfully: "Your Highness, although the slave maid is just a palace maid, she also knows the rules of arraignment. Without the presiding judge present, the slave could not say anything. β
As soon as he heard this, his gaze suddenly became fierce.
"Okay, you toast and don't eat and drink!"
After speaking, he threw me away and shouted at the person next to him: "Punishment!" β
As soon as the words fell, the two jailers next to him immediately walked up with a pair of torture instruments.
As soon as I saw the simple, only a few pieces of bamboo sticks and hemp rope can make life worse than death, my face suddenly turned pale, and I subconsciously retreated, but those people grabbed my hand mercilessly and **** ten fingers to the center of the stick.
Ben Fan asked, you answered. If you answer a wrong sentence, pull a point! β
