The women in the sky jail wanted to die under torture.

There was no trace of intact skin on her body...

The methods of the cruel officials in the Criminal Department were indeed well-deserved, but she still couldn't die.

For her, these two strangers in front of her are her only hope.

However, facing her plaintive appeal, Chuhe was unmoved.

Seeing this, the woman crawled to Mei Zhou's feet with difficulty, and grabbed his ankles with trembling hands. He was so frightened that he stepped back again and again, and looked up at Chu He at a loss: "Sir... this..."

The woman raised her head with difficulty, her eyes almost too swollen to open: "Please, sir, please let me die. I will work as a cow and a horse in the next life to repay your kindness."

"How can someone like you have another life?" Chu He looked at her coldly.

"I just want to avenge my eldest sister. Am I wrong? Just because I am a humble commoner and cannot defeat the royal relatives, do I have to live a life worse than death under your hands?" The woman's voice was hoarse.

Chu He looked at her: "Do you think the Ministry of Punishment is just here to torture you these days? Yu Liu'er, your slander of Prince Ning has been verified, so stop pretending."

As soon as the three words "Yu Liu'er" came out, the woman's whole body was shocked.

Chu He continued: "You are originally from Puyang County outside Beijing. Three years ago, you were chosen as a thin horse by your adoptive family and were carefully trained. Ten days ago, your adoptive family was killed, and you were sent to the capital to be installed. Among the dancers, because you are all carefully trained skinny horses, so you have no personal relationship with each other except for rehearsals, so you were tricked into the palace, but is that so?"

Yu Liuer's face turned pale, but the terrifying thing was not over yet.

"But in fact, Yuliu'er is the name given to you by your adoptive family. Your real name is Liu Yu, and you have both parents at home. You have no eldest sister, only an eight-year-old younger brother. The eldest sister you mentioned was bullied by King Ning. It’s just nonsense.”

Yuliu'er seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar: "This...these are the Ministry of Punishment..."

"Yes, these are all information that have been verified by the Ministry of Punishment and have been submitted to His Majesty."

"Then...then why don't you kill me?! And you continue to torture me?"

"Of course I want to know who is behind it. How could your Majesty allow others to murder his son?"

Yu Liuer fell to the ground slumped again: "Please, sir, I have committed a serious crime by slandering Prince Ning. Please, please let me die..."

Chu He looked at her: "Tell me who is behind the scenes, and you can get what you want."

"I can't say...I can't say..." The woman was trembling all over, "My adoptive father has been killed by her. If I tell the truth, my mother, my father, and my brother will all die like my adoptive father. There is no complete corpse..."

"In that case." Chu He turned to look at Mei Zhou: "Give her the ginseng soup."

"No! No!" The woman cried miserably.

Although Mei Zhou couldn't bear it, he didn't dare to disobey Chu He's order.

He squatted down, took Yuliu'er's head, and wanted to pour the ginseng soup into her mouth.

Yuliuer, on the other hand, struggled with all his strength.

She knew that once she drank this bowl of ginseng soup, within half a day, she would be pulled onto the execution bench again until she breathed her last.

Chu He looked at her coldly: "The most indispensable thing in the palace is something that can hang people's lives. Even if you knock down all the bowls of ginseng soup, there are still five bowls waiting for you outside the door. Instead of struggling in vain, it is better to save your life." Use some strength."

After he finished speaking, Yuliu'er's arms drooped down, and she gave up struggling.

Mei Zhou waited for the opportunity to pour all the ginseng soup into her mouth.

The decoction entered the abdomen, and the medicinal essence blended into the limbs and bones, but it made the pain after the torture more obvious.

She lay desperately on the cold ground.

I want to die, but I can't.

This is probably a tragic thing in the world.

……

When Chu He took Mei Zhou out of the prison, it was already dark.

After returning to the barracks, Chu He stopped in front of his room door. He turned and looked at Mei Zhou: "I don't need anyone to serve me here anymore. You can go back first."

"Yes."

After Mei Zhou left, Chu He turned around and entered the room without lighting the lights.

He looked into the dark corner and said, "Come out."

From the shadows, a man dressed as a Forbidden Army walked out: "My subordinate, Xiao Qi, has been ordered by the Marquis to deliver medicine to you."

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he took out a bottle of medicine.

This was exactly the kind of medicine Shu Qing gave him earlier.

Xiaoqi came here not only to deliver medicine, but also to reveal his identity to Chuhe through delivering medicine.

Chu He took the medicine bottle, played with it for a moment, and asked: "How many people like you are there in the Forbidden Army?"

He wanted to know how many people Mu Rong had placed in the Forbidden Army.

Xiao Qi replied: "It's just me."

Chu He looked at him: "Mu Rong asked you to come here just to deliver medicine to me?"

Xiao Qi continued: "The Marquis also asked his subordinates to come down and ask for instructions. Is there any progress in the prison? Do I need help from my subordinates?"

"No need, it's just a woman." Chu He said lightly, "Let him wait for the news."

Xiao Qi responded: "Yes."

Then he added: "My subordinates are on duty in the inner palace. You can give me orders at any time if you have anything to do."

"I know, please step back first." Chu He turned around and entered the inner room.

"Yes!" Xiao Qi was about to turn around and leave.

The moment he went out, he heard a cold voice from behind: "From now on, no one is allowed to sneak into my room without my instructions, even if you are his!"

……

News from the palace came out that night.

When Xiao Qi came to deliver the letter, Mu Rong was adjusting his breath in the house. After receiving the news, Mu Yi asked him to go back to the palace first, and then looked in the direction of the study with a complicated expression.

In the past few days, Mr. Hou has to meditate for a long time every time he comes to see the eldest lady.

really……

Women are easily weakened.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the door of Mu Rong's study opened: "Come in."

Mu Yi then conveyed the truth from the palace: "Mu Qi said that Mr. Chu stayed in the Heavenly Prison for a full hour today, but he did not inform him of the progress. Mu Qi would like to ask if it is necessary to sneak into the Heavenly Prison to find out what happened?"

"No need, let Chuhe handle Yu Liu'er's affairs." Mu Rong said calmly, "Just let Mu Qi wait for news about him with peace of mind."

"Why do you... trust Master Chu so much?"

When Chu Hegang was working as a guard in the Xu Mansion, the Marquis clearly regarded him as an enemy. Why did he even involve him in helping Prince Ning now?

Although the Marquis has not made it clear, who knows the details of his secret arrangements, who can't see it?

"There is no absolute trust between him and me." Mu Rong said lightly: "We just have a common goal."

For him and Chu He, they have only two goals after two lives:

First, protect Xu Rongrong’s peace;

Secondly, Wu Tianqi would never be able to stand up again.
