C114 Visiting prison hunting in the dark

Capital Office, inside the dungeon.

Bright torches lit up the quiet corridor. The smell of rotten blood mixed with bursts of mournful howls echoed in the air. The sudden fall of the torches caused people's hair to stand on end.

In the torture chamber.

After the crashing sound, the tormented and unconscious Lady Liu regained his consciousness.

Wife of Marquis, you should admit it, your Mama has already admitted it, and said that you told her to put those things in Ji Shaoting's room, and that she had evidence and witnesses already, if you confess, you can take out the Antidote and suffer less pain, and we can also use less strength, so biting down on it will not benefit anyone.

"This lady has never done it before. Why should I admit defeat? I've said it, I've never done it, you can't ask any further, how do you know that the Mama wasn't bribed by someone to frame me? Then can't they be the ones who intentionally wronged me with this so-called evidence? "

Her clothes were tattered, and her entire body was covered with whip marks. She was obviously called out to a number of times, her entire body was drenched, and her body was burning with pain.

"You really are stubborn. What should we do, boss? I've never seen such a stubborn woman before, she's clearly got all the evidence, but even if you don't say anything, you won't admit it. It's been so long since I've used torture, even a man wouldn't be able to take it, my arm is numb, but she just doesn't want to admit it. The constable who was executing the punishment wiped the perspiration on his forehead, his voice somewhat annoying.

There were thousands upon thousands of torture instruments in the yamen prison. It was impossible to walk out of the prison without taking off the skin of the criminals who had entered the torture chamber. Of course, there were people who were afraid of pain and admitted it the moment they got on the torture device, and there were also those who weren't afraid of pain and would allow you to torture her. In any case, they wouldn't admit it, and Lady Liu was clearly the latter.

Did he really think that he just didn't have to admit his mistake?

If not for him asking about the whereabouts of the Antidote, Prefecture Lord would have already been sentenced to death. The evidence of the witnesses were conclusive. Forget about a mere Wife of Marquis, so what if he was a Wife of State Duke or even a royal relative? Without the right to grant amnesty, he was destined to die anyway.

She said that she wanted to see her mother. She said that she wanted to persuade her mother to hand over the Antidote.

Without waiting for Zhan Yi to speak, the jailer came to report. Zhan Yi thought for a moment, "Bring the people back for personal detention, if she has a way, then let her try. Also, send someone to guard the place, we cannot let anything happen to the suspect, otherwise, the Prefecture Lord will not be able to explain himself."

Lady Liu was summoned out of torture chamber and brought back to his own cell. He brought Ji Yanran in and opened the cell door to advise her: "Miss Ji should try to persuade your mother better.

Ji Yanran was brought in and immediately saw the Chiari lying on a pile of hay in the prison. The woman quickly rushed into the prison and cried out in alarm, "Mother, how are you, I am Yanran, Mother, they used torture on you, how can they do this, Mother, how are you, Mother ?"

"Mom's fine. Yanran, why are you here?" As his body was lifted up by Ji Yanran, Lady Liu looked at the face that was filled with tears and worry. He broke into a smile: "Don't worry, I can still hold on ? Is everything alright in the manor? "

Ji Yanran shook her head with tears in her eyes, "Mother, I am fine, my brothers are all fine, but mother, mother, since you are so injured, please take out the Antidote. I have begged the Big Sister, as long as you take out the Antidote, the Big Sister will withdraw the paper on Mother's behalf.

"Ran, how can you think like this? How can you admit that your mother hasn't done it before, your mother really hasn't done it. Yanran, could it be that even you don't believe your mother and think that she really did it ?" Yes, how could she admit it? If she did, there would be no turning back, and she wouldn't be the only one to die. Her three children would never be able to raise their heads again, so even if they died, they wouldn't be able to recognize her.

How could that bitch Ji Huachang let her off so kindly? Only Yanran would naively believe her words, she wasn't Yanran.

Ji Yanran immediately explained: "No, Mother, daughter doesn't mean that. Your daughter naturally trusts Mother, so why would Mother do such a thing, your daughter believes that Mother hasn't done it before, but your daughter doesn't want Mother to suffer, your daughter really doesn't want Mother to suffer such hardships. Mother, if he knows where the Antidote is, then take the Antidote out.

"Mother really never did ?"

"But why is that medicine in Mother's room? Mother, you ?"

"Mother doesn't know either, but if there really is someone who wants to harm mother, there are naturally plenty of ways to do so while leaving the things in Mother's room. Mama can naturally be bought and used, and even threatened. Yanran, Mother really doesn't have any ?"

"Mother ?"

The Lady Liu's face was filled with disappointment and pain. Ji Yanran's tears were streaming down, the mother and daughter pair hugged each other as they cried in a mournful and dismal manner, bringing with them endless sadness and sadness. The yamen runner s next to them also turned their heads when they saw this, but at a place where they could not see it, Lady Liu's finger landed on the palm of Ji Yanran's hand.

After a long while, until the yamen runner came, the crying finally stopped.

Lady Liu reached out his hand to wipe away Ji Yanran's tears. He stared fixedly at Ji Yanran: "Ran, don't cry, rest assured that Mother can still hold on. Go home and take care of your little brother. Yu'er is still young, you have to take good care of them, okay? "Let's go back ?"

"Mom, don't worry. I know, I know. I brought some food and tea for mom. Mom has to take care of her health. Your daughter and brother can't afford to lose mom ?"

Ji Yanran kept nodding his head, being urged by the yamen runner that he could only reluctantly leave the prison, he turned around but did not leave, and instead walked in front of Zhan Yi.

From her sleeve, she took out a wallet and passed it to Zhan Yi: "Head Constable Zhan, Yanran begs for your magnanimity so my mother can give her some food to eat first. From morning until now, my mother hasn't eaten for an entire day.

The lady's legs went weak and she knelt down towards Zhan Yi.

"Since I cannot take back my official position, Miss Ji should take it back."

Zhan Yi reached out his hands to help her up, and looked at the teary face of the woman before saying: "Let her eat and rest for a while, and then send the brush and ink inside to Wife of Marquis to let her think about it. Wife of Marquis, I don't want to torture you, and even if you don't want to, you should think about other things for your own children. Send Miss Ji out, you guys follow me to interrogate the others. Wife of Marquis is a heinous crime, you have to leave people here to watch over him. "

"Yes, sir."

"Thank you, Head Constable Zhan. I, Yanran, thank you for your kindness."

"Miss Ji, no need to be so polite."

Ji Yanran thanked Zhan Yi gratefully and was brought out of the room by jailer. Zhan Yi sighed at the woman's back and stayed at the same spot to watch Lady Liu eat.

The prison returned to silence as the Lady Liu rested against the wooden fence. Soon after, footsteps came from behind, constable came over to deliver the water, and after opening the prison door to fill it up, the man did not leave, but stood beside the Lady Liu's feet and looked at him. His eyes were gloomy and somewhat strange.

Lady Liu raised his head and looked at the approaching person: "Who are you ?"

"I came on the orders of my master to take you away." The voice was low and hoarse. The man had lowered his hat to a very low level. The torch was too far away in the passage. It was difficult to see his face in the dim light.

Lady Liu was startled when he heard this. "Who exactly are you ?"

The man ignored Lady Liu's question and took out an item from his chest pocket. Lady Liu looked at the item and his eyes shook slightly before swallowing his words back down his throat. The man whispered to Lady Liu and then made a clear noise.

After a long while, she picked up the pen and started writing on the white paper. She put the pen down, bit off her finger and dripped a drop of blood on it, then turned around and ruthlessly smashed her head against the dirty and mottled wall.

With a muffled sound, blood splattered in all directions.

The person limply lying on the ground soon stopped breathing.

The black boots finally stopped in front of the jailer and opened up the paper on the ground. From his bosom, he took out another paper and carefully looked at it, then kept the blood stained paper. He then picked up the blood stained paper and walked in front of the Lady Liu, pressed a finger onto it, and gently threw the paper on the ground.

A moment later, loud screams echoed from the whole cell.

The night outside the Capital Office, however, was still quiet and serene.

In the darkness of the night, the towering building was like a gigantic beast hidden in the darkness. Beside the dark shadows, two figures successively entered the darkness and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The two of them walked in different directions.

The pitch-black eyes standing in the distance at the eaves, blending into the darkness, blinked. Without much hesitation, in an instant, the owner of those eyes locked onto one of the directions and disappeared like a gust of wind.

The bright lights emitted a dim light in the night, the black shadow in front entered a deep courtyard, and the figure behind also floated down from the sky. The red candle in the room dripped with wax tears, and within the fluttering black silk cloth, one could faintly see the shadow of a person hidden behind a white jade screen.

Black Shadow stood outside the screen and kneeled down extremely respectfully. "Master, he's already dead. However, it wasn't our people who did this."

"Oh, there's actually someone else? Did you find out who it is? " A man's voice came out through the screen and the silk cloth. It was low, magnetic, round, and filled with surprise and ruthlessness.

"This subordinate does not know that that person's martial arts are higher than this subordinate's. This subordinate did not follow because I was afraid of being discovered." Also, Lady Liu's daughter went to the dungeon, the Lady Liu was useless, she was unable to get what Master wanted after so long, and she even lost herself in it, it is not a pity for her to die, but Master's plan ? "

"If she's dead, then so be it. She's just a pawn with a bad heart. Without her, I can look for someone else. As long as the item was brought back, it was fine. As for who the chess piece was, it didn't matter. "However, don't move for the time being, in order to avoid arousing suspicion from others, do something else first, you ?"

CHI *

The man inside the screen suddenly opened his mouth and flicked his finger. Something shot out from the white jade screen, arcing upwards and smashing the roof tiles.

The half kneeling person immediately shot out, and stood at the peak of the roof for a long time, but did not discover anything. Only then did he fly back into the house, and once again kneeled on the ground: "Please give your blessings, principal superior. It is this subordinate's fault, that I was not even noticed when I was being followed, which caused this person to expose Master's location, this subordinate deserves to die."

Ka-cha ?

The person behind the screen stepped out and removed the right arm of his subordinate, "Let's do it as a light punishment for now. If we make any mistakes, we'll punish them when we return. Arrange a new place for us to rest."

"Yes, Mistress."

The servant grabbed his severed arm and kneeled down respectfully.

With the candle flame extinguished, everything in the garden became silent and dark. The person behind the screen also disappeared without a trace.
