Imperial Plot - C245 Torture
This was the greatest tolerance the Zhong Miao Yi could muster. If they were willing to reveal the identity of the person behind the scenes, she could consider taking this matter lightly.
However, from their appearances, the possibility of this wasn’t high.
, that eunuch from Cheng Xian Tower, could understand, but since Shun Quan had done this, Zhong Miao Yi really didn’t want to understand it too much.
She believed that she had never treated any of the Eternal Nightfall Pavilion’s servants harshly before. Regardless of whether it was good or bad, she always placed her heart above her servants’ heart.
Even Shun Chang could not take it anymore. After kicking Shun Quan twice, Zhong Miao Yi hoped that Shun Quan could understand and tell her who was controlling him the most.
As long as he was willing to say it, the Zhong Miao Yi could take him down lightly. If he insisted on hiding it, the Zhong Miao Yi would not allow him to stay alive either.
The Ah Jiu followed Zhong Miao Yi’s instructions, and after Su Zeyi left, he brought the soup to find Su Zeyi.
Su Zeyi heard that the Ah Jiu had come and let her in.
“Greetings to the Emperor.” The Ah Jiu knelt down to pay her respects. Su Zeyi let her up and saw the thing in her hands.
“What is this?” Su Zeyi asked, as he himself was a little doubtful. “She asked you to send it over?”
The Ah Jiu nodded, “Yes, Master said that the Emperor is tired and needs to rest.”
Su Zeyi was stunned, following that was the joy from the bottom of his heart.
She still remembered herself.
Their relationship was slightly alleviated, and Su Zeyi was greatly encouraged by this, and quickly opened it to take a sip.
“Did she do this?” Su Zeyi smiled and squinted his eyes, he was extremely happy.
Of course, this was not made by the Zhong Miao Yi herself, but it couldn’t be said like this in front of Su Zeyi. She nodded her head and said: “Yesterday, I personally got up and used a small fire to make it.
“No wonder.” Su Zeyi’s heart was moved. She must be too tired, which was why he got Ah Jiu to send it over.
How long had it been since the Zhong Miao Yi had shown such concern for him? Su Zeyi himself could no longer remember.
She must have understood it now, so she decided to do it this way. No matter why, as long as she was willing to go near him, even if it was only by a single step, he would be the one to take the rest.
“I’ll go see her later.” Su Zeyi finished the soup and wiped his mouth.
“It would be best if the emperor returned tomorrow.” “Master didn’t sleep well last night. I’m afraid that if the Emperor goes today, Master won’t be in a very good condition.”
Su Zeyi thought about it, that made sense, as he had many matters on hand that he had to settle. It would be easier after the assembly tomorrow, and he would be able to go back then.
“Alright, then you tell Miaoyi that I’ll be there tomorrow after the assembly.” Ah Jiu went forward to put the things away, and after saying yes, he knelt down and left.
It all depended on Shun Quan’s choice today. If he was unwilling to speak of it, then the emperor would come tomorrow and he would have to suffer.
After Ah Jiu returned to Chang Mu Pavilion, she asked her how things were going, and Ah Jiu nodded and repeated what Su Zeyi had said.
Zhong Miao Yi nodded and stood up: “Let’s go and see them.”
Shun Quan and the young eunuch from the Cheng Xian Tower were imprisoned in the dilapidated warehouse behind the Kitchen.
The warehouse was damp and dark, so it must have been very cold at night. When Zhong Miao Yi saw them, they were dragged out into the sunlight, and the two of them, who were trembling all over, let out a long breath.
“How is it? Do you understand?” Zhong Miao Yi asked. This feeling must be worse than torture, after being frozen for a whole night, his entire body was drenched with sweat.
The young eunuch couldn’t hold on and was already crying in a low voice. Thinking about it, his heart was also struggling, but Shun Quan was strong, and refused to speak with his eyes closed.
The Ah Jiu walked forward and said softly, “In the morning, the Emperor will come. When he arrives, the people you will meet will not be your master alone, so I believe you understand how the Emperor will treat you? If the Emperor was still unwilling to speak even after seeing him, then the only thing left for him to do was to be tortured. Why do you have to suffer? ”
Zhong Miao Yi stared at the two’s expressions. Even that young eunuch from the Cheng Xian Tower would shiver, and Shun Quan looked like he was already prepared to die.
Zhong Miao Yi frowned. She was not afraid of anything else, she was only afraid that Shun Quan would give up on himself and give up on the thought of living.
Who was it? What kind of threat was this?
Zhong Miao Yi sat there for a long time, but the two of them did not say anything.
She did not want to wait any longer, so she said to the Ah Jiu: “Let them bask in the sun for a while, don’t cause any problems with the cold, and lock them up again later.”
Before Su Zeyi arrived, Zhong Miao Yi did not want any accidents or illnesses to occur to the two of them.
Ah Jiu ordered, and it just so happened that Shun Chang was there to guard it, he knew what to do, and Ah Jiu was very at ease.
When Zhong Miao Yi saw that it was already clear, the mastermind should already know that the young eunuch of Cheng Xian Lou had disappeared. He probably guessed it too, and did not know if he was in a hurry or not.
The Zhong Miao Yi more or less knew who it was. The number of people in this palace that could bribe the eunuchs of Cheng Lin were too few, and it was just that she did not have any evidence. Otherwise, she would not need to waste time like this.
It was clear that he had recovered greatly and had not vomited again. However, compared to the past, his appetite was not as good.
Zhong Miao Yi felt her heart ache, but she had no other choice. She could only blame herself for being too careless, and would never let this kind of thing happen again.
Even in the Nightfall Pavilion, everything had to be done with extreme care. Wanting to harm her and the people in the room was impossible, as they would have ten thousand ways to create opportunities.
“Is it still not enough to eat?” Zhong Miao Yi asked the wet nurse.
The wet nurse nodded and sighed, “We’ll stop eating after a while. We’d rather eat more if we were really hungry. It’s probably because we’re scared, but our stomachs are more or less damaged.”
Zhong Miao Yi patted Zang Ming’s back. She had never given birth to a child before, and there was no way for her to feed him. Furthermore, it was clear that she did not want to eat him.
“Try to make him eat as much as possible. Think of a way to eat as much as possible. Right now, you’re the one who’s personally cooking?”
The wet nurse nodded her head, “Yes, Ah Jiu will help me cook some when he’s free.”
That’s good. Since it’s something to eat, no one else can interfere.
This kind of lesson once was enough, it definitely couldn’t happen again. She remembered this lesson, and in the future, she will also remember this palace’s way of survival. There would be a day when she would return everything she had.
