I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 169 Automatic protection is activated

Wen Jia was taken off the rack, and the person on the rack was replaced by Luo Qianhuai.

This year must be against Tai Sui, so the year is unfavorable and it is always easy to be jailed.

Luo Qianhuai thought with a wry smile as the rough hemp rope wrapped around his wrist.

Wenjia's mind was really not very bright. At this time, he still didn't understand the situation. He was actually a little happy about her misfortune, and he didn't know how his uncle raised him.

Couldn't he see that if he didn't survive the punishment and was dragged into that trumped-up conspiracy case, he would kill the Nine Clans? As a male from his mother's clan, Wenjia would definitely not be able to escape.

Seeing the executioner walking towards her with a whip, Luo Qianhuai's brain was running at an unprecedented speed.

She was afraid of pain and death, so she couldn't resist forcefully. If it doesn't work, the only option is to use the system. Although I owe my current fate to it, but it still depends on the system to untie the bell. Maybe it will be able to find a way to break the situation.

But that was all when there was really no other way out.

"Wait a minute." She yelled and successfully stopped the whip from attacking her: "Sir, if you have anything you want to ask, you can ask me. My little girl will know everything - so there is no need to use punishment, right?"

Bai Ming looked at Xu Kai, who saw a hint of evil in the latter's eyes: "Then Madam Luo is willing to admit that she is related to the great rebellion of the Han people in Yong'an?"

"Hiss!" Bai Ming gasped: "Mr. Xu, are you saying that Madam Luo is actually a member of Han Ni's party?"

"Nine or ten." Xu Kai nodded.

"I really didn't expect that such a delicate girl could be involved in such a big case." Bai Ming sighed with emotion. When he looked at Luo Qianhuai again, it was as if he was looking at some extraordinary treasure. Much softer.

Luo Qianhuai looked at the two officials talking in a few words and wanted to put such a big accusation on his head.

This kind of thing cannot be acknowledged no matter what!

"My lord, I have misunderstood. My little girl is just a medical woman. She has been living in Shouquan in Xinzhou before. She only arrived in Changling half a month ago. How could she possibly interact with someone like Lord Yong'an?"

"Master Bai." Xu Kai sighed: "Although the prisoner is a female prostitute, he has a hard mouth and a strong heart, so you can't help but show mercy."

"Don't worry, sir, I know what to do." Bai Ming changed his face as soon as he turned around, and shouted sternly at the executioner:

"Did I tell you to stop? If you don't know what to do, go home and don't come back again!"

It is not so easy to get official royal rations these days. The jailer shuddered and immediately used all his strength to swing the whip.

Luo Qianhuai closed his eyes and held his breath. The jacket she is wearing is full of fine silk, it should be able to block it, right?

At the critical moment, a voice fell from the sky: "Stop!"

This time the jailer learned the lesson well and refused to listen to anyone's orders except Bai Ming's words. The whip still dragged its sound downwards.

"An external attack has been detected. The host currently has 'automatic protection' once for one minute, and it will be enabled now. Wow, the activation is successful."

Although the electronic sound of the system was still flat, Luo Qianhuai found it very pleasant.

Although I don't know where this automatic protection comes from, as long as it can help her escape. The only question is whether one minute can be used.

The long whip fell on her in full view of everyone, but it didn't even break the outermost brocade material.

The jailer's eyes widened with disbelief on his face. He was a veteran of torture for many years, and he knew clearly the consequences of this whipping. The thin cotton jacket on this female prisoner couldn't hold it back at all, and the skin and flesh must be torn inside.

The brocade on the outer layer of the jacket is very valuable and very precious. Even if he touches it lightly with his calloused hands, the silk will be scratched, not to mention that the three strands of beef tendon are twisted and dipped in salt water. Where's the whip?

But unfortunately, the clothes didn't even have any damage, just like the whip didn't touch the edge at all.

<divclass="contentadv"> Thinking that Bai Sikou was standing behind him and watching, the jailer blushed and used all his strength to whip twice more, one of which accidentally hit Luo Qianhuai. Normally, a deep blood mark would be left on the neck.

But today, I don’t know what happened. There was not even a trace of oily skin on the female prisoner’s snow-white and pink neck.

The jailer was in a daze when he was suddenly kicked down.

"Don't you hear me when I asked you to stop?" the person who spoke before said angrily.

The jailer looked confused, but Bai Ming and Xu Kai recognized the person who was coming. It was He Jian, the new Changling Ling Huo Yu's personal attendant.

He Jian was a retainer of the Huo family, and he represented Huo Yu's own opinions. Even without an official position, Bai Ming and Xu Kai did not dare to look down upon him.

"Brother He, what are your orders?" The two looked at each other, and Xu Kai asked.

"Your Majesty ordered us to take good care of Mrs. Luo. Find her a clean room and do not torture her."

"This" Xu and Bai looked at each other again, with disappointment in their eyes.

It seems that the adults want to use gentle methods. In this way, the credit may not go to oneself.

Fang Jian was too lazy to care what they thought, and said bluntly: "Your Excellency will interrogate the prisoner in person in the evening. If you two adults have any different opinions, you can follow me to see you now."

"No, no, how could it be possible?" Bai Ming said with a smile on his face: "I will take good care of Mrs. Luo as my Lord said."

Luo Qianhuai was taken to the innermost cell. It is indeed much cleaner here than outside. There is a decent bed with a thin mattress on top, not just straw like other cells.

They come, the security. Luo Qianhuai sat on the bed, closed his eyes and recalled the various pharmacopoeia prescriptions he had memorized in his previous life, and his mood slowly calmed down.

Mr. Mo wore a blue linen robe and hemp shoes. He followed the two eunuchs and walked steadily to the Chengming Hall.

After the eunuch came forward to report, Nie Xi opened the door of the palace himself: "Your Majesty summoned Yu Chu to come in."

He looked at Mr. Mo seriously, and the latter smiled at him.

Nie Xi lowered his head and suppressed the strange color in his eyes.

The then Prince Ru inherited the good looks of his mother, Queen Wei, and was born with a special look.

It's rare that Yu Chu looks exactly like him.

Mr. Mo walked into the main hall step by step, knelt down in the center of the hall, and performed three obeisances and nine kowtows meticulously.

"The sinner Yu Chu, please see your majesty."

The man at the head was silent for a while, and then he said: "Raise your head."

Mr. Mo propped himself up with his arms, straightened his back, and looked up.

Emperor Yu Heng of Dayu was also looking at him. After all, he is a person who is close to knowing his destiny. His beard and hair are already pale, and his vision is somewhat blurred due to the effects of diabetes, but when he looks around, he can still vaguely see the aura of an emperor.
