Lu Mingzhu was shocked and shook her head in denial: "It's impossible. Did your Majesty see it wrong?"

"Presumptuous." Eunuch Wei shouted and glared angrily: "You dare to question your Majesty, you are seeking death."

"I didn't." Lu Mingzhu shrank her neck in fear and said uneasily.

Lu Youping looked at Eunuch Wei carefully with a sullen face: "Eunuch, look, there is room for change in this matter. My daughter definitely didn't mean it."

Eunuch Wei rolled his eyes at Lu Youping rudely: "Master Ning, do you think this is a trivial matter? Fortunately, the empress discovered this first. If the screen was delivered to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would know about it.

The young lady insinuated that her old man was short-sighted, which is a capital crime for losing his head."

"Concubine Shu is kind and kind. This time she only punished the fourth lady severely and did not implicate the rest of the Lu family. Mr. Lu should be grateful. We should advise you to speak less."

His mother-in-law happily took the embroidery and asked people to make a screen to please the Queen Mother. Unexpectedly, she had only been happy for a few days when she was suddenly told that there was something wrong with the bird facing the phoenix.

Phoenix has no eyes?

This is simply disrespectful to the Queen Mother. If it is not discovered in time, when the Queen Mother's birthday banquet is served, then there will always be sharp-eyed women among the officials and ladies who will find the problem. Even if they don't say it on the spot, sooner or later this matter will be revealed.

At that time, the Queen Mother will be disgraced, and the concubine Shu who presented the screen will also be held accountable.

Lu Youping's face looked ugly, and the old lady was shaking. Lu Xiang quickly stepped forward to support her.

Liu and Lu Mingzhu were completely stunned.

Eunuch Wei looked at everyone's faces indifferently, shook the whisk in his hand and said: "Concubine Shu ordered that Lu Mingzhu despised the royal family. The following crime is unforgivable. He will be punished by clasping his fingers, cutting off all ten of his fingers, and he will be executed immediately."

Everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

Ms. Liu screamed and hugged Lu Mingzhu: "It's none of Mingzhu's business. She didn't embroider this embroidery. It's none of her business."

The old lady came back from the shock and was startled when she heard Liu's words. Then she saw her hand pointing to the side, in the direction of Lu Xiang.

"If you want to blame the empress, blame Lu Xiang. It was Lu Xiang who embroidered the hundreds of birds facing the phoenix, and she should be the one who should be punished."

Snapped……

As Liu finished speaking, a heavy slap fell on Liu's face.

Mrs. Liu covered her face, and when she raised her head, she saw the old lady with a sinister face. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent, which made her choke for a moment.

"How can I not allow you to act nonsense in front of my father-in-law? Why haven't you changed your habit of blaming other people when something goes wrong? You said it yourself, how many times has this happened? There are so many pairs of eyes in the Lu family looking at you. Why don't you just pull someone out and ask?

Ask, do they believe what you said?"

"It was Xiangxiang who did the embroidery. Why didn't you tell me when you were favored by Concubine Shu? Now you have committed a serious crime and you are using her to take the blame. Madam Liu, if you are shameless, if you dare to say a word again, get out of here."

Lu family."

The old lady was furious, and there was infinite coldness on her cold face.

Lu Youping pulled Liu away angrily and shouted in a deep voice: "Do you think Mingzhu's punishment is not enough, and you want to drag our whole family to die?"

At this time, Lu Youping was not willing to understand Liu's motherly heart to protect her daughter. She was so annoyed that she blamed Lu Xiang. Could it be possible to save Mingzhu? She didn't even think about it. Now that Mingzhu made a mistake, Concubine Shu only punished her.

, but if Lu Xiang is allowed to admit this crime, it will be deceiving the king...

You don't know which one is more important?

Thinking of the consequences, Lu Youping couldn't help but break out in cold sweat on his back. He pulled Liu's hand harder and harder, and his handsome face showed uncontrollable anger.

"But..." Ms. Liu struggled to speak, but in the end she did not dare to challenge Lu Youping's bottom line at this time.

Eunuch Wei brought a lot of people with him when he came, so he waved and two young eunuchs immediately pulled Lu Mingzhu out.

The eunuchs had no sympathy for women. Lu Mingzhu wanted to resist, so he jumped on her several times, causing her to grimace in pain before being dragged away.

Mrs. Liu felt heartbroken when she saw it, but the pain in her arm made her afraid to act rashly.

Lu Youping looked coldly at Lu Mingzhu who was dragged out, with a reserved look on his face.

Two eunuchs pressed Lu Mingzhu down, and then a young eunuch picked up the silver needle in the tray, grabbed Lu Mingzhu's finger and stabbed her fingertip hard.

As soon as the silver needle penetrated, Lu Mingzhu's pupils dilated in pain: "Ah..."

A sharp scream echoed through the front yard.

When Qiao Jingru, Aunt Lin, Lu Qiao and Aunt Yao arrived, they saw such a shocking scene, and their faces turned pale in shock.

In the main hall, everyone's expressions were extremely ugly, and Mrs. Liu looked even more miserable.

Qiao Jingru asked tremblingly: "Grandma, father, what happened...?"

They received the news that the eunuchs from Concubine Shu's palace came to convey Concubine Shu's oral instructions. Her first reaction at that time was that Concubine Shu must have given Lu Mingzhu another reward.

Can……

How to use torture?

The scene where the eunuch pricked the fingertip with a needle made Qiao Jingru tremble all over even thinking about it.

This kind of punishment will not lead to death, but it will not torture people.

The old lady and Lu Youping had gloomy expressions and were in such bad moods that they didn't want to talk.

Lu Xiang whispered the cause and effect of the incident. Qiao Jingru was so shocked that she almost lost her breath and looked at Lu Xiang with dumbfounded eyes.

Lu Xiang faced her gaze directly, her pretty little face was full of calmness, her skin could be broken by a blow, and she exuded a touch of elegance and refinement like a flower.

It seems to be saying that no matter how my sister-in-law looks at me, I will never regret what I have done.

Qiao Jingru reached out and took Lu Xiang's hand, squeezing it hard to express her feelings.

Lu Mingzhu is shameless, and she deserves this kind of consequences.

She was surprised because it happened so suddenly and she was unprepared. Although Lu Xiang kept telling her not to rush and that she knew what to do, he didn't tell her what to do.

If Lu Mingzhu had not been greedy, he would not have suffered today's sins.

Everyone must bear the consequences of what they do.

What's more, when Lu Mingzhu stepped on Lu Xiang, she always spared no effort and ignored the consequences.

Eunuch Wei thought Lu Mingzhu's screams were too unpleasant and irritating to her ears, so he had her mouth stuffed with cloth, and silver needles were inserted into the tips of her ten fingers. Then he saw the little eunuch take out a stick and cut her

They pinched it with their ten fingers one by one, raised their hands, and the other two people grabbed the rope and pulled it hard to both sides.

Ten fingers connected to the heart, this kind of torture is simply worse than death.

Lu Mingzhu couldn't scream, her face was pale, her eyes were full of panic, and she was in pain. Her body was held tightly by the little eunuch, and she couldn't move at all. She was suffering from the heart-breaking pain.

Vaguely, everyone seemed to hear the sound of bones breaking.
