The Queen Mother jumped from the tower, and His Majesty was reborn with fear

The sound of the whip hitting the body was really terrifying. Lin Xiuyi's shrill screams, one louder than the other, pierced her eardrums until she was beaten covered in blood.

A bucket of ice water was poured directly over her body, and the biting cold made her limbs become stiff and cold.

"I really want to beat every piece of flesh on your body until it's ripped off. But if I just beat you up, wouldn't that be too easy for you? After your wounds heal, how can you remember the lesson?" As soon as Xie Yuxiu said this, Lin Xiuyi felt an extreme sense of fear.

Isn't that enough? What else does he want to do?

"Your Majesty, please spare my life... Your Majesty..." Lin Xiuyi gasped. At this moment, she really regretted why she had thought of attacking Yu Jinzhi just now.

She is really a disaster... If it weren't for her, how could I end up like this? I should have dealt with her after she was rejected by His Majesty...

"You actually resorted to violence, so you will have to pay the price with your hands. Come, hammer nails into her hands." Xie Yuxiu really wanted to kill her.

Lin Xiuyi was naturally terrified, but no one dared to plead for her. In this situation where everyone was in danger, even breathing could become a mistake.

Yu Jinzhi was originally afraid when she heard the noises outside. Although she tried to endure it, she already felt nauseous in her heart.

Soon, the cruel screams outside made Luo Yu's heart tremble. She had always been afraid of Xie Yuxiu, but she had never seen Xie Yuxiu use any extreme torture in front of her.

The worst incident in the past was when she had to watch people being beaten to death in front of her. As for other bloody scenes, she had never seen them before.

Thinking of this, Yu Jinzhi suddenly wanted to do a test...

Outside, one of Lin Xiuyi's fingers had been nailed, and her whole body was soaked. It was unclear whether it was stained with blood or sweat.

But this is only the first one, there are nine more to come... Xie Yuxiu didn't even need to say anything, the people below had already started to work.

Yu Jinzhi walked barefoot on the ground. She tried hard to overcome the fear in her heart and thought about going out.

"Princess, you are still injured, how can you go out like this? The ground is cold, put on your shoes first."

"No need." Yu Jinzhi said and continued to walk out.

"Princess, it's too bloody outside. You have never seen such a thing, so don't go and see it. It will only dirty your eyes. And his majesty has just specifically instructed you to stay here." Qingyu advised.

She didn't know what Yu Jinzhi wanted to do, and she wouldn't know. Yu Jinzhi wouldn't tell Qingyu, and she could only make the people around her maintain normal reactions to avoid any flaws.

"I want to go out and take a look..." Yu Jinzhi still insisted.

Qingyu couldn't really stop the man by force. Seeing that there was no other way, she could only compromise.

Just as Yu Jinzhi walked to the door, she heard Lin Xiuyi's hoarse voice shouting.

She clenched her hands unnaturally. This fear came from the bottom of her heart and was engraved in her bones. It couldn't be changed in a short time.

Xie Yuxiu didn't notice the movement behind him. Yu Jinzhi held the door and finally saw the scene outside clearly.

Wu Cairen and Jiang Meiren were lying on the ground, gasping for breath, but they could barely be seen as human beings.

As for Lin Xiuyi…his entire body was covered in blood, probably because he had just been whipped. Now his hands were even more stained with blood. With his disheveled appearance, how could he look as noble as before?

It is undeniable that she almost vomited when she saw this scene. She looked at Xie Yuxiu who was sitting far away from me. He looked calm and composed as if he was just doing something very ordinary.

The smell of blood in the yard stimulated Yu Jinzhi's nerves, and she stepped out of the door barefoot. It was also at this moment that Wang Yi finally saw her coming out.

He was startled and wanted to speak directly, but in the end he looked at Xie Yuxiu: "Your Majesty, the princess has come out..."

When Xie Yuxiu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and then quickly turned his head and saw Yu Jinzhi holding the door.

He immediately stood up and moved to the side to cover himself, making sure Yu Jinzhi couldn't see the scene behind him.

"Why did you come out? Didn't I tell you to stay in the room? Why are you disobeying me again?" Xie Yuxiu stood in front of her and started scolding her.

Yu Jinzhi looked at him blocking her body. Did he really not want her to see that tragic scene?

"I was scared in there..." Yu Jinzhi said with a trembling voice, which was not a lie.

Afraid, afraid of what?

"No one is beating you, scolding you or punishing you now, so what are you afraid of?" Xie Yuxiu was also a person who was not thinking straight, and had no idea what she was afraid of.

Yu Jinzhi looked at Xie Yuxiu with tears in her eyes: "I heard the noise outside, so I was scared." Her body was shaking slightly, and it seemed that it was the case.

Are you scared when you hear the noise outside? Xie Yuxiu looked at her and only then realized that she didn't even wear shoes and came out barefoot.

He was about to get angry again, and Yu Jinzhi also noticed his gaze, so she immediately retracted her feet, thinking that she could cover them with the hem of her skirt.

Not only that, she also lowered her head and hunched her shoulders, looking as if she was afraid of being beaten or scolded.

When Xie Yuxiu saw her move, all the words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat and he couldn't curse anymore. Thinking about what she said just now about being afraid of the noise outside, he couldn't be so harsh anymore.

"Why did you come out if you were afraid of the sound? Can't you make people feel less worried? And you're barefoot, aren't you afraid of getting pricked?" As he said that, he picked the person up. Yu Jinzhi was like a child who had done something wrong, and didn't say a word.

But when Xie Yuzheng was about to carry her back to the room, Yu Jinzhi suddenly hugged him tightly: "I don't want to stay in there alone. I don't want to go in now..."

"If you don't want to go inside, are you planning to stay outside? There are a lot of dirty things outside. Aren't you afraid of having nightmares after seeing them?" Xie Yuxiu's tone finally softened.

But Yu Jinzhi refused to give in and just said: "Can you stay with me? Can you not leave today? I'm scared, I don't want to be left behind, I don't want to be alone, can you stay with me..."

Accompany her? This seemed to be the first time that Yu Jinzhi took the initiative to say that she wanted him to accompany her. He lowered his head to look at the woman in his arms. He was still skeptical at first, but when he saw her shrinking and timid appearance, he began to soften his heart and couldn't bear to let her go.

She seems to be really scared now...
