Qingxia Hall, Jinwang Palace
Ah Piao and Ah Rou stood face to face in the empty field in front of the Qingxia Palace. The two sisters, who had survived the disaster, showed a smile of relief at the same time when they saw each other.
It’s great that they are all alive!
As Wanyanping's closest confidants, the two of them and the other three guards were the targets of intense scrutiny and torture. For this, they had already prepared for the worst as soon as they discovered that Wanyanping was missing. , there is a high possibility that they will be used as scapegoats, and then be accused of various crimes, and then be sentenced to death.
Therefore, when they were taken into the most dangerous, darkest, and most vicious torture room in Yiqing Prefecture, they never thought that one day they would come out, and they were already ready to take this life. After all, the officers responsible for interrogating them were all Jin Guoxin's ruthless officers and very experienced interrogators. Each of them had at least dozens of lives on their hands. In the past ten years, anyone who threatened Wanyanping or resisted Wanyanping would most likely fall into the hands of these criminal officers. Only a handful of people could escape from their hands alive.
As Wanyanping's confidants, A'Piao and A'Rou often interacted with these people, but they never thought that one day they would fall into the hands of these people and be whipped into their hands. At that moment, there was only one sentence in their minds. The situation turned and this time it turned to them.
After five days and five nights of interrogation, their bodies were already bruised and bruised, but the two sisters gritted their teeth from beginning to end. Apart from the familiar daily routine of Wanyanping, they knew nothing about anything else. Don't know, don't know.
The criminal officers had seen a lot of tough guys before, and it was not unusual for them to be like this, so they didn't take it seriously at first. According to the normal interrogation methods, they felt that if the two little girls had something evil in their hearts, they would You won't be able to hold it.
However, these criminal officials never expected that they could not get anything useful from the two sisters even though they tried their best. Frustrated, they never thought that they would fall into the hands of two little girls. However, they also knew that if they continued to be detained, nothing would come out of the interrogation, so they had no choice but to release them.
After coming out of the dark torture room, where they could not see their fingers, the two sisters realized that not only they had been arrested for interrogation, but also everyone in the palace, whether they were guards, maids, or rough girls and old ladies, had also been arrested. Several people who worked in the dining room and laundry room could not bear the torture and died on the second day after entering.
"Injury..." Ah Piao looked at her sister. Although she was wrapped tightly in clothes, she could still see bruises on her exposed neck and wrists. "Does it still hurt?"
"Don't worry? It's much better." Ah Rou smiled softly and cast a comforting look at her sister, "Don't eat the mutton and chicken that my sister likes for the time being. Is it bad for the wound? Drink less tea. Don’t drink it so strong.”
"I know, so do you." She looked her sister up and down, "Eat well, sleep well, don't feel full after just one bite, do you understand?"
"I know the severity, sister, don't worry!"
Ah Piao nodded lightly and heard the sound of slight footsteps. She turned around and saw a few people walking diagonally behind her. They were the only maids and guards left in the palace after Wanyanping disappeared. They are just like sisters. Although on the surface it seems that there is nothing serious, if you look closely, their steps are sloppy and their faces are not that good. They look like they are just recovering from a serious illness.
"Sister Piao, Sister Rou!"
A maid named Ah Liang saw the two sisters and wanted to take two steps quickly, but because her health was so bad, she stumbled and almost fell. If the people next to her and Ah Piao hadn't caught her in time, the consequences would have been disastrous. It's really unimaginable.
"Hey, slow down, slow down, don't be anxious." Ah Piao reached out and touched Ah Liang's forehead, "I felt fine when I woke up in the morning. Why is it so hot all of a sudden? I'm so sick, and I can't even lie down properly. What are you doing running out?"
"It's not like the old saying goes, if you want to see a person alive or a corpse if you die, I want to find His Highness as soon as possible. I don't believe that His Highness is like this..." A Liang took a few breaths and looked at the people around him, "You guys are here Isn't this also the reason here? You don't believe that His Highness will disappear for no reason, right? Also, if His Highness is not found for a day, the suspicion of us people will not be cleared for a day. Are you willing to carry this filth all the time? name?"
"Although that's what they say, and Li'er is also the same, the body is still the most important, right?" A Piao waved to the two guards, "With people like us here, we can still find out. Is that so? Or are you saying that you don’t believe in our abilities?”
"Believe it!"
"Since you believe it, then go back and rest obediently." Ah Piao looked at one of the guards who was supporting Ah Liang, "Master Hei, please help her find a doctor and give her a prescription. She can't just let the fever go down like this. please!"
"Do not worry!"
Ah Piao watched as the two guards sent Ah Liang back, then turned to look at the people around her.
"Everyone is here for the same purpose. We don't believe that something will happen to His Highness, so..." She turned around and faced the bedroom, "We are going to turn this place upside down to see what we have Neglected, look how our Highness disappeared!”
