Ci Jinzhi
Chapter 233: change
"In less than half a day, most of the people in the capital knew that Miss Kou was with me." Xiao Lengshi stared at Xin You with sinister eyes, "Miss Kou is very resourceful."
Rumors spread quickly, but not that fast, because rumors have different audiences. Wealthy families are not interested in the common people who lost a chicken or whose brothers turned against each other, and ordinary people often don't care about the affairs of the court.
The release of "Journey to the West" broke this situation.
In the first two volumes of "Journey to the West", the story of four masters and apprentices traveling to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures has unfolded. Monsters, beauties and gods, the magnificent and charming plot has exceeded people's imagination.
There are too many people in Beijing who are obsessed with "Journey to the West". They flocked to the book as soon as the third volume was sold. Once there is something at this time, it will naturally spread at an alarming speed.
What’s more, this is Miss Kou who donated 50,000 taels of silver to the Dingbei disaster area!
“You think you can force me to let you go by using the people to put pressure?” Xiao Lengshi became more and more angry as he spoke.
The emperor's intention is very clear. This is why he was asked to temporarily take charge of Beizhen Fusi. If he couldn't get it done before He Qingxiao came back, he might as well just go back to Nanzhen Fusi in despair, but if he lost the Sacred Heart, his future would be hopeless.
“People’s girls don’t dare.” Xin You said these four words, with cold sweat covering her forehead.
It hurts.
The whip fell on her body, and the barbs penetrated her skin, scraping up her flesh and blood. It was a pain that penetrated deep into the bone marrow.
Turns out this is what torture feels like.
And the man in front of her told her that this was just an appetizer, and it was not even considered a punishment if it was placed in Beizhen Fusi.
“Have Miss Kou heard of scrubbing?” Xiao Lengshi took a step closer, and the faint smell of blood in the air made his eyes full of excitement.
He knew a long time ago that he was the most suitable person here, not the man named He who had a prettier face than a woman.
"Brushing means stripping the person naked, pouring boiling water on the body, and then brushing repeatedly with an iron brush... Oh, and frying, frying is also very interesting..." Xiao Lengshi said each torture, his eyes shining, Licking the corner of his mouth.
Xin You could see that he was a pervert who took pleasure in torturing others.
"Of course, these tortures will not be used on Miss Kou." After scaring him, Xiao Lengshi showed a warm smile, "How can Miss Kou be a big celebrity in the capital?"
Xin You naturally heard the threat in it.
She will not use torture, but can use ordinary methods, such as whipping, which she has already experienced.
She was whipped twice and stopped when Master He's subordinate Yan Fuqianhu broke in. Then she watched Yan Fuqianhu being taken away.
Xiao Lengshi rubbed his chin: "Miss Kou is as beautiful as a flower, and Xiao doesn't think it should be too bloody. Well, let's change the way we play."
Xiao Lengshi winked at Jin Linwei who was in charge of punishment.
The Jinlin guard turned around and went out, quickly carrying a wooden barrel.
That bucket is quite deep and contains most of the water.
Xin You’s doubtful eyes quickly turned to reality.
Xiao Lengshi smiled: "It seems that Miss Kou already knows what this bucket of water is used for. Is there anything Miss Kou wants to say now?"
Xin You shook his head slightly: "It's not that the civilian girl didn't tell, it's that she really didn't know."
"Impossible!" Xiao Lengshi sneered, "For a book writer who has become famous in the capital, it doesn't matter if others don't know about it, but the bookstore owner who works closely with him doesn't know anything? Do you think I'm a fool?"
"Master Xiao doesn't believe it, and the women of the country are helpless." Xinyou lowered his eyes, covering the anger in his eyes.
“In this case, Miss Kou, let’s take advantage of it.”
With a look from Xiao Lengshi, the Jinlin guard stepped forward to untie Xinyou's rope and pushed her to the barrel.
“Have Miss Kou really thought about it?”
The response to Xiao Lengshi was silence.
One hand grabbed Xinyou's shoulder, and the other hand pushed her head into the water.
Hair bun got wet and became messy. Water is everywhere and permeable. As soon as the breath you are holding runs out, you will be surrounded by a feeling of suffocation.
Uncomfortable, overwhelming discomfort with nowhere to escape.
For a moment, I seemed to see the whiteness of my mind. Xiao Lengshi saw that it was almost done, and the impulsive Jin Linwei raised his hand to signal.
The pressure on her head disappeared, and Xin You straightened up suddenly, gasping for air.
Water dripped down from the ends of her hair, forehead, cheeks, and nose. The face that was submerged in the water was pale and without a trace of blood.
Xiao Lengshi stood in front of the embarrassed girl, half-smiling but not smiling, and asked: "Miss Kou, how do you feel?"
Xinyou raised his hand to wipe the water from his face, his fingertips couldn't help shaking.
This shaking is not because of fear, but a physiological reaction that is too uncomfortable and cannot be controlled.
The way she remained calm irritated him.
Xiao Lengshi raised his chin, and Xin You's head was pushed into the water again.
The familiar feeling of suffocation came over again, as if fireworks were exploding in my mind, blowing away all my sanity.
There was only one voice in her heart: Mother, I was wrong.
Mom, I was wrong...
The pressure on her head disappeared, and Xinyou broke out of the water and took a big breath.
Looking at the man with cold eyes as if he were looking at ants, she heard a firm voice in her heart: Mother, I was wrong.
Principles, strategies, and predictions are vulnerable to absolute power and ruthlessness.
She chose revenge. Once she stepped into the capital, she shouldn't have the extravagant hope of getting out of trouble.
This is the price she should have paid.
She was wrong, she wanted both revenge and freedom.
Since everyone is looking for Mr. Song Ling, she will let Mr. Song Ling appear in front of their emperor and become a presence that they dare not offend.
“Miss Kou’s strength is beyond Xiao’s expectation.” Xiao Lengshi was really surprised.
Although he had never experienced the feeling of dying when someone pushed him into the water, he had seen it. Even a man's bones will become weak if he does this twice.
She is a little girl, how can she still hold on?
It was rare for Xiao Lengshi to have some appreciation for a little girl.
Of course, this appreciation is nothing compared to the Qingyun Road he wants to embark on.
“Xiao is curious as to how long Miss Kou can persist.”
Just as Xiao Lengshi was about to signal to continue, a Jinlin guard hurried in and whispered a few words in his ear.
Xiao Lengshi's expression changed slightly and he glanced at Xin You.
There was surprise and annoyance in his eyes.
After his subordinates finished reporting, Xiao Lengshi looked at Xin You again and walked out quickly.
Without him speaking, the subsequent punishments naturally stopped.
Xin You looked at the door of the torture room, thinking about Xiao Lengshi's eyes and the words he heard, thoughtfully.
She has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and her ears and eyesight are better than ordinary people. Although the man's voice was low, he could hear most of what he said clearly.
The Jin Linwei who came in said that Eunuch Sun from the palace was here and wanted to ask about Miss Kou.
It seems that she used the release of "Journey to the West" to spread the news that she was arrested and sent to Jinlin Guard, and someone has already reported the situation to that person.
The speed was actually faster than she expected, but Mr. Xiao, who was temporarily in charge of Beizhen Fusi, moved faster.
