Rebirth: Missing the Beloved - C84
“This matter has nothing to do with me. As the Official of the Supreme Court, is this how you’re brought to trial? “What do you mean by ‘wicked woman’?”
Du Mu Zhou spoke slowly without a care in the world. He was unwilling to admit to this matter.
“Men, come and serve me with a heavy punishment. I would like to see if her bones are as tough as mine.”
Originally, the justice courts wouldn’t have used any punishment, unless they met a truly mischievous person. However, with Du Mu Zhou’s status, the justice courts wouldn’t even have ten thousand times the guts to use it on her. When the whip hit Du Mu Zhou, he knew that she was wrong!
On the other side, Jian Jia, who didn’t know about Du Mu Zhou’s condition, was burning with anxiety.
She always knew the rules of the justice courts, the longer Du Mu Zhou stayed in prison, the more dangerous it was for him. Thinking that Du Mu Zhou might be tortured, Jian Jia became more and more anxious.
No, she had to take a look.
Just like that, Jian Jia took the food box and rushed to the justice courts.
She hurried along the way. The streets were a little chilly, and the crowing of the crows in the trees made people’s hair stand on end. Suddenly, a feeling of uneasiness began to arise within them. It was like the growth of a mummy, and it quickly spread through their entire hearts.
It was already very late, and when she arrived at the justice courts, there were only a few gatekeepers around.
The gatekeeper dutifully guarded the door, the moment he saw Jian Jia, he immediately stopped her.
“Who is it!” The gatekeeper drank it.
Jian Jia said, “I’m here to visit my lady, let me in!” Unconsciously, Jian Jia reached out her hand to the box in her hand. Her attitude could be said to be very sincere, even to the point of begging.
The gatekeeper looked at her, then looked at the food box in her hand and asked: “Your young miss? Who is it? ”
“It’s the First Young Miss of the Prime Minister’s house, Du Mu Zhou!” Jian Jia said, his eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
“Eldest Miss of the Du Residence, Eldest Miss of the Du Residence …” The gatekeeper muttered to himself twice. Suddenly, he thought of something and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Jian Jia did not notice his change, but in her heart, she was still yearning for him to quickly put her into it.
“The justice court has an order, no one is allowed to visit!” The guard said and shot her a fierce glare.
“But …” Before Jian Jia could finish, he was interrupted by someone.
“But, but what? Can’t you hear me? The justice court has ordered me not to visit you!” “Let’s go, let’s not get in the way here …” As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to chase her away.
Not going in, Jian Jia had a faint feeling that something was wrong. Logically, with Du Mu Zhou’s identity, he should be able to be visited, and why … Could something have happened to her young lady?
Thinking of this possibility, Jian Jia became even more anxious. But she was just a servant girl, what could she do? Thinking about it, she couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. Who could he ask for help at a time like this! Suddenly, a figure flashed through his mind.
Young Master Mu, yes, Young Master Mu, he will definitely help young mistress.
Thinking of this, Jian Jia immediately turned around and ran back to the Xiao family without stopping.
“Young Master Mu, Young Master Mu, please save my family’s young miss …” “Young Master Mu …”
Arriving at the Duke of Xiao’s mansion, Jian Jia jumped in front of the door and wouldn’t let go no matter how much the guard tried to stop her.
Mu Lingshao rushed over upon hearing the sound.
“Jian Jia!” “What’s going on?”
Seeing Mu Lingshao, Jian Jia ferociously wiped away her tears, “Young Master Mu, you must save my family’s young miss!”
“What’s the matter, come in first.”
“Young Master Mu, it’s like this. I was worried about the young miss’s safety so I went to the justice courts to visit my young miss. However, the security guards at the justice courts said that the justice court officials have orders not to visit!” How can we not visit? The country never forbids us from visiting prisoners. I think our Miss might have suffered something … Bad… “Treatment …” Jian Jia’s voice became softer and softer until she couldn’t hear it herself.
Jian Jia lowered her head. Even without looking at her expression, Mu Lingshao could feel that this girl was blaming herself deeply.
Jian Jia had always been a loyal person.
“I got it, I’ll go tonight!” Mu Ling, Shao Yan said. After that, he sent the loyal girl back to the Du Residence and ran to the justice courts all by himself.
In the night, a shadow passed through the barrier of the justice courts and came to the entrance of the prison.
After a few laps, he finally saw Du Mu Zhou, who was covered in wounds, in the deepest cell.
The girl, who had been smiling like a flower, curled her body into a ball and curled up in a corner. The girl’s hair on her heart was in a mess, the cold sweat on her forehead was still there, and her breathing was a little hurried.
When Mu Lingshao heard her breathing, his heart couldn’t help but tremble.
“Wooden boat, wooden boat …” No one responded…
Mu Ling Shao opened the prison door and gently shook Du Mu Zhou.
The girl in his embrace opened her eyes slightly. After seeing Mu Lingshao, she buried her head in his embrace, “Ling Shao, why are you …” Here it comes … “Hiss …”
Her voice was very weak, like a flame dancing in the wind. A moment of carelessness could cause it to disappear without a trace. Right now, all she felt was pain all over her body.
In a trance, Du Mu Zhou seemed to have heard the crisp sound of Mu Ling Shao pressing on the bone.
“They tortured you?” Mu Ling Shao asked coldly.
“It’s nothing, just a small wound!” Du Mu Zhou’s voice was like smoke.
Mu Lingshao did not dare to touch her. His entire body was covered in blood, how could he possibly be fine? The justice courts had actually used lynchings on the sons and daughters of officials. Weren’t they afraid of being blamed by the emperor? There must be someone behind all this!
“Don’t be rash, don’t go find the justice court’s justice court to reason. Go investigate …” Who was it that was ordered to do this to me? Is it my father? ” Du Mu Zhou forced a smile.
Mu Lingshao shook his head and told her that it wouldn’t be Du Zhong because Du Zhong had already promised to save her.
“Then… “Perhaps it’s Lady Han and the others again. They really are haunting me like ghosts, targeting me wherever they go. Hehe, it’s alright. I won’t be defeated by them, I still need to …” As he spoke to here, Du Mu Zhou could be considered to have fainted. After being whipped for so long and having no medicine or food, she was already extremely weak.
Mu Ling Shao’s heart really ached. He gently placed Du Mu Zhou on a hard wooden board and turned around to retrieve the medicine. Afterwards, he immediately came back and applied the medicine for her. Seeing that her expression had eased up, Mu Ling Shao’s heart relaxed.
“Lady Han, Han Family, you have repeatedly tried to harm the wooden boat. Don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Mu Lingshao’s words seemed to enter Du Mu Zhou’s mind and reverberate for a long time.
