At midnight, Yilan Garden is located west of Kyoto.
Yilan Garden is a palace of Princess Pingle, backed by Huimeng Mountain.
The mountain of Huimeng Mountain is not high, but maple trees are planted all over the mountain. In late autumn, the mountain is covered with red leaves, which is really spectacular. The Dreaming of Red Leaves is also one of the most spectacular sights in the capital.
Every late autumn, Zhou Jin would stay in Yilan Garden, overlooking Huimeng Mountain in the garden, or walk up the mountain to admire the red leaves.
Therefore, every late autumn, Yilan Garden will become lively. However, in other seasons, there are only seven or eight eunuchs and maids staying in the garden. What they do every day is just cleaning and sweeping to keep the garden clean and tidy.
However, late autumn has not yet arrived this year, and Yilan Garden has already become lively.
A few days ago, thirty-six of the princess's personal guards escorted one person to Yilan Garden. The leader was in his thirties, powerful and wearing light armor. Although this man's appearance was unusual, his sharp eyes and excessive gaze made people shudder.
The most eye-catching thing is the heavy sword he carries on his back and his extremely large hands.
Fan Yujing's sword weighs sixteen kilograms and is five feet six inches long. With one swing of the sword, it can cut off a person's head like blowing hair off hair.
Fan Yujing and his party came to Yilanyuan, showed Princess Pingle's token and moved in.
You Gui was locked up in the innermost servant's room. There were people on guard in front and back of the room. There were also two guards living in the next room.
Fan Yujing would interrogate You Gui as usual every day, but You Gui remained silent, just like the smelly and hard stones in the toilet.
Although Her Royal Highness the Princess said not to torture You Gui, Fan Yujing did not take action because in his opinion, You Gui's physique could not withstand his punch.
However, the guards accompanying the interrogation were not so good-tempered, especially when they saw the way You Gui looked at them.
His eyes were full of indifference and pity.
Although Her Royal Highness the Princess is merciful and prohibits the use of torture, she does not say that beating people is forbidden, and what the guards are good at is beating people.
They are also very skilled in beating people, knowing where the most vulnerable parts of a person's body are and how to make a person feel the most intense pain when he is fully conscious.
Therefore, they do not torture people for a long time, but they are often very effective. Anyone who can persist under their hands for three days can be regarded as a tough guy.
But they have never seen anyone like You Gui.
You Gui was over fifty years old, so the guards did not dare to be too harsh, but that did not mean that the pain he endured would be lessened.
With the guards' methods, even a strong man in his twenties and thirties would not be able to bear the pain.
You Gui couldn't bear it, and would shrink into a ball and cry out in pain, but his mouth seemed to be sewn shut with needle and thread, and he still didn't say a word.
His eyes also changed. They were no longer indifferent, but full of pity and contempt.
This look was not only incomprehensible to the guard who made the move, but even Fan Yujing was surprised. He didn't expect that You Gui's bones were so hard.
"Why?"
You Gui's face was deformed due to pain, his eyes protruded like dead fish, and his lips were bleeding from his teeth.
Fan Yujing said softly: "You don't have to bear this pain."
"People like you will never understand." You Gui squeezed out a sentence through the gap between his teeth.
"Yes, I really can't understand." Fan Yujing nodded slightly: "But you can tell me and let me understand."
The pain was like an awl, stabbing every vulnerable part of Yougui's body, but he couldn't faint.
However, even though You Gui's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, the way he looked at Fan Yujing seemed very calm, even with a trace of pity.
"Are you pitying me?"
Fan Yujing's tone was not angry, but full of questions.
"I feel sorry for all of you."
Fan Yujing sighed: "You are lying in front of us like a dead fish now, but you are still pitying us. I also want to hear what is it about us that makes you pity us?"
You Gui slowly closed his eyes, because the pain was like awls, but now it washed over his body repeatedly like waves.
Every muscle on his body was trembling, every vein was bulging, and his body was curled up like a baby.
As time passed by, Fan Yujing couldn't help but sigh secretly, and then waved his hand gently, and the guards around him immediately stepped forward and slapped You Gui.
With each slap, the pain on You Gui's body became a little weaker. After a few slaps, the pain on You Gui's body completely disappeared like the ebb of the sea water, and he collapsed on the ground as if he was exhausted.
Fan Yujing stood up, and then said to the guards beside him: "Take good care of him, and you won't have to do anything in the future."
After finishing speaking, he slowly walked out of the room, his eyes full of admiration and surprise, because he had never seen such a person before, and he also knew that such a person could not be pried out of his mouth no matter what method you used. Any words come.
After Fan Yujing left, the guards carefully lifted You Gui up and then gently placed him on the bed.
You Gui's bones not only surprised Fan Yujing, but also impressed the guards who took action.
He really couldn't imagine that such a person existed in this world.
This interrogation technique was not invented by them, but was learned from the prisons of the Ministry of Punishment. Although it is not as bloody and horrific as other torture methods, its effect is no less effective than those methods, or even more effective.
Fang Hong, a green forest hero who once crossed the two lakes and regarded life as nothing, still cursed despite all kinds of torture in the Ministry of Punishment prison. However, he only lasted three days under this method, and confessed everything like spitting out beans.
You Gui is definitely not as good as the so-called green forest hero Fang Hong in every aspect, but now six days have passed, but they haven't heard a single word from You Gui's mouth.
For real tough guys, whether it was Fan Yujing or the guards who took action, from the beginning they were disdainful, to now they are full of admiration for You Gui.
When time passed, Yilan Garden also became silent.
Although Yilan Garden is silent now, it does not mean that the guards of Yilan Garden have become lax.
The later it gets late at night, the tighter the guards here become.
In addition to constant patrols, there are five or six hidden piles. And these five or six hidden piles can almost prevent any blind spots in Yilan Garden, and are always under strict surveillance.
It is almost impossible for anyone to sneak into Yilan Garden through such tight guards, let alone rescue people from here.
And Fan Yujing remained absolutely awake in the dead of night. He had just personally inspected it and was very satisfied with the defense of Yilanyuan.
Under such tight defense, trying to rescue people from his hands is simply a fantasy and a dream.
Even though Fan Yujing was full of respect for You Gui in his heart, he would never allow others to rescue people under his eyes.
