Emperor, I Am Brutal - C102
Xue Mier never thought that she would be able to follow Hu Xiao to the dungeon the first time she saw him. She had thought of countless ways to go these past few days, but none of them made a breakthrough!
“I’m fine. We can go together. I want to broaden my horizons towards this person who dares to assassinate my sister.”
Afraid that Hu Xiao would change her mind later, Xue Mier quickly said. After all, with Hu Xiao’s personality, it was hard to guess.
Qin Shuo looked at Hu Xiao and Xue Mier, who rarely got along with each other, and felt a little gratified in her heart.
In the past few days, Qin Shuo had kept his doors shut to see Xue Mier, and it was all for the sake of Xue Mier. If not for him, Hu Xiao would not have left her house in anger, and she would not have been injured.
Like the Water Manor dungeon.
“Your Majesty, the Empress is locked in here.”
When he brought Wei Shi and the others over, Zhao Qiyan was in the middle of interrogating them, and turned around to see that Qin Shuo and his men were already in front of him.
“This humble subject greets Your Majesty, Empress.”
Qin Shuo nodded as he looked at Hu Xiao.
“This person came to my room? Did General Zhao manage to get anything out of it? ”
Seeing that the person in front of him had an ordinary appearance, Hu Xiao’s initial interest decreased. As expected, it was all a lie.
“Reporting to the Empress, this person’s mouth is very hard. Currently, she has not found the answer.”
Zhao Qiyan felt very ashamed, this man was obviously here to assassinate Hu Xiao, but he couldn’t get any answers out of him.
“No punishment?”
Seeing that her whole body was in a good condition, Hu Xiao asked curiously, since she could not ask for anything, why did she not use torture?
“Zhen told this person to leave it for the empress to deal with.”
Qin Shuo looked at the red-faced Zhao Qiyan, who did not know how to explain, and said that out of good intentions.
Oh, so it was like that. Because she had been instructed to leave it for him to deal with, she didn’t dare to use torture. That was good as well, allowing her to broaden her horizons.
“Since that’s the case, then since I’m here now, let the General Zhao interrogate me. I’ll naturally admit the punishment. I also want to know who is behind this.”
Hu Xiao said with a smile, it was as though she was saying that the weather was extremely good today, and upon seeing that, Xue Mier clenched her hands tightly.
Zhao Qiyan turned and walked towards the black-clothed man.
“Wait, how many days has this person been hungry?”
If he did not use torture, the black clothed man would not be in such a state. Although Qin Shuo had warned him not to use torture, Zhao Qiyan would definitely not let him off easily.
“The Empress has great eyesight. Ever since she was locked up, she has been hungry to this day.”
Since he didn’t want this person to stay comfortably in the dungeon, this was the only solution.
“Mn, Zhi Lan, serve the food and let this person eat it.”
Hu Xiao thought for a while before replying.
Hearing that, everyone looked at Hu Xiao strangely, they did not want him to use torture, how could they let him eat? Even the black-clothed man was shocked, not knowing what Hu Xiao was going to do.
Hu Xiao naturally saw through their suspicions, but she did not want to explain why they would do so.
Although the man in black did not want to give in, he could do nothing about it. With the food in front of him, the fragrance was everywhere and his body was already moving uncontrollably.
“We can begin now.”
If he had been so hungry just now, the assassin would not have said anything. He might as well let the assassin eat and drink until he was full and feel like he was alive again. His willpower would naturally be greatly weakened.
But after a while, Xue Mier was unable to watch it anymore, but Hu Xiao and Qin Shuo both remained motionless, so no matter how uncomfortable she was, she had to endure it.
“Will this assassin be unable to bear the torture and commit suicide?”
In the end, he could not bear it anymore. The look in that person’s eyes when he looked at him and that extremely painful scream echoed by his side.
“Hmm? No, just now, he had experienced the sweetness of living. Why, does it seem like I can’t bear to look at Imperial Consort Xue? ”
Hu Xiao had noticed every single one of Xue Mier’s movements, and upon seeing Xue Mier’s voice, she replied.
So that was the reason why he let him eat! Xue Mier felt chilled all over, she had really underestimated Hu Xiao.
Looking at Wen Fuchen, he finally calmed down a little. He reckoned that Wen Fuchen had settled the matter here.
“How could that be? This person is the sinner who murdered Empress, it’s not excessive for him to die a thousand times, right now he only has a little bit of physical pain.”
Hu Xiao laughed when she heard that, but for some reason, Xue Mier suddenly became forceful again, but at the same time, she did not care about that.
That miserable cry was like the cry of an opponent who had been knocked to the ground. After calming her heart and being unable to ask any further questions, Hu Xiao no longer had the mood to continue watching.
“Your Majesty, let’s return. Your consort isn’t feeling too well.”
The injuries on his body were not small, but he had expended a great deal of effort just now, so Hu Xiao felt that she was somewhat tired.
In his heart, however, he was extremely agitated. It was only a small wound, how could it be so weak that could not withstand the wind!
Hearing that, Qin Shuo nervously brought Hu Xiao out, afraid that she would faint again if she didn’t feel well.
“Your Majesty, the yin aura in the dungeon is very heavy and it is very normal for the Empress to not feel well. It is better for the Empress to not go to these places where the yin aura is very dense or else she will become ill.”
Just now, Qin Shuo returned from the underground prison and sent Hu Xiao back to her room for an imperial physician.
“Thank you very much.”
Hu Xiao nodded towards the imperial physician, this was the first time Hu Xiao had seen this person, but it was all thanks to him, otherwise he would have been lying unconscious on the bed.
“Empress’s words are too serious.”
The imperial physician had always heard that Hu Xiao had an arrogant and despotic personality, she had never fought in the past, but seeing that Hu Xiao was so knowledgeable, the people who made up the rumors hated him to the extreme, causing him to constantly tremble in fear, afraid of angering the empress.
Seeing that Hu Xiao was fine, Qin Shuo was slightly relieved, and after warning him to rest well, he left.
“Your Majesty, Empress’s interrogation is not appropriate today. The imperial harem cannot be used for political purposes, Empress has overstepped her boundaries, and Empress cannot do such a thing just because she saved Your Majesty.”
Qin Shuo had wanted to ask the officials to discuss the matter regarding the dungeon, but now, they did not mention anything about it at all. Instead, they were dissatisfied with the empress!
“Your Majesty, Sir Qin’s words are reasonable. Empress has indeed overstepped her boundaries a little. Even Empress … It shouldn’t be like this, your majesty. ”
Yesterday, they had all been trying to hide from the empress, but today, they had all jumped up to her. It was as if the empress had committed the greatest sin. How laughable!
“Your Majesty, this subject believes that what the Empress did is not wrong, and it is not considered crossing over!”
