Chapter 39
Fang Huanyuan pointed to the circular platform in front of him, and everyone looked in that direction.Three guards walked up from the left side of the round platform, and they escorted a person, a woman.The remaining one held a cross-shaped wooden post, and then the three tied the woman to the post with thick hemp ropes.
"A month ago, some new instruments of torture were refined in the Criminal Justice Workshop. At that time, I was worried that no one in the prison would tolerate me, but by chance, on the way back to Heji, God let me catch this fugitive from Qu Yuguo , I will use her for trial today."
As soon as Fang Huanyuan finished speaking, the original three guards carried the torture tools onto the round platform, one at the front, one at the middle, and one at the back, as if they were carrying one person.The onlookers saw that the instrument of torture looked like a piece of heavy armor, and they were very curious about what kind of punishment it was.When the guards opened the armor to reveal densely packed silver needles, the guests all sighed.
Seeing it, Bai Feili suddenly picked up the wine glass and took a sip of the wine.At this time, Qin Fengliang, who was drunk on the other side, was slightly taken aback when he saw this cruel instrument of torture.The wine in the glass spilled all over her body, and He Xianmei beside her quickly took out a juan handkerchief to wipe it off for her.
Qin Fengliang pushed away He Xianmei's hand, stood up and walked to the front of the hall.
"Your Highness, today is your day of great joy. If you see the blood, I am afraid that something is wrong."
"Ah~, General Qin doesn't know something. The blood is red, which means celebration. In Heji, it will be even more joyful if the prisoner is beheaded on the wedding day!"
"Your Highness"
"Come on! Sentence!"
Regardless of Qin Fengliang's persuasion, Fang Huanyuan insisted on ordering Xue Gou to be punished.Qin Fengliang had no choice but to swallow those half-sentences abruptly.
The palace people on the side suddenly screamed one by one, and some of them were so frightened that their legs went limp and they fainted on the ground.Qin Fengliang clenched his glass tightly and kept drinking, unable to bear to look up at the round platform.
At that moment, Xue Gou once again felt the suffocation brought by death.Tens of thousands of silver needles pierced into the body in an instant, and the ten fingers were clasped in the palm of the hand so painful that they bled.Xue Gou held back his teeth, blood oozing from his mouth.She raised her head tremblingly, and swept towards Fang Huanyuan who was directly in front of her.
Xue Gou's eyes showed hatred for the first time, and he met Bai Feili's eyes with a glance.
The mask of impermanence only exposed a mouth and two small holes in front of her eyes, through which she could see the red eyes of the other party.
"This is clearly His Royal Highness intending to kill that girl."
"You don't want to die, what are you chewing on your tongue?"
The palace people began to whisper among each other, and Bai Feili in front never took his eyes off Xue Gou.This pair of cruel instruments of torture, even Bai Lundao, who has always been curious and wide-ranging, was sweating beside him.He patted Bai Feili's hand and sighed regretfully.
Fang Huanyuan was very satisfied with Xue Gou's appearance, and he took revenge for the humiliation that day, and drank glass after glass of wine happily.
"Your Highness, Chong Su really doesn't know who that woman is?"
Gao Chongsu rolled up his sleeves, unable to bear to see that cruel appearance.He bowed his hands and looked at Fang Huanyuan suspiciously.Just who is Qu and what sinner would the prince of a country hate so much.
"Could it be that the lord has forgotten who killed General Wang Changwang of your country?"
Gao Zhongsu was startled.
"She is that Shen Xueli"
Fang Huanyuan's words pierced Qin Fengliang's body, but it was because of that incident!Xue Gou is going to be punished like this today, but the root cause of everything is her!Qin Fengliang pulled the wine jar on one side and drank fiercely, wanting to drink away the guilt in his heart.
"Snapped!"
The wine glass in Fang Huanyuan's hand fell to the ground suddenly, and he fell straight to the ground.The servants in the palace were in a state of confusion, shouting, "Chuan Imperial Doctor".At this time, many smoke/fog bombs appeared among the guests.For a moment, there were screams in front of the Hall of Hehuan, and the sound of fragments exploded into a ball.
Bai Feili wanted to take the opportunity to go forward to rescue Xue Gou, but just as he stood up, he was grabbed by his left hand.
"When you brought me here to congratulate you, you should have thought that there would be today"
Bai Feili shook his hands to get rid of Bai Lundao, and ran to the high platform with extremely fast feet.When she came to Xue Gou, someone had already killed the guards before her.Xue Gou's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and Qin Fengliang forced Qin Fengliang to remove the front and rear armor with great pain.
The moment the armor was peeled off, the blood that had already been riddled with holes in his body immediately stained the whole white clothes red.Xue Gou's legs were weak, and he was about to fall down.Qin Fengliang and Bai Feili quickly stretched out their hands to support her, Xue Gou's arm was shaking with pain.
Xue Gou weakly reached out and tugged at Bai Feili's cuff, then collapsed weakly into the other's arms.
"Take me away..."
Bai Feili took her body and hugged her horizontally.He turned his head and left the round platform.Qin Fengliang, who stayed where he was, withdrew his hand reluctantly, and walked back to his seat as if in a daze.She took a few steps, and fell on the road unsteadily.
The wound on Xue Gou's body was too deep, and the bloodstains left along the way would attract the guards.After carrying her around several palaces, Bai Feili flew directly to the eaves.Along the eaves, he returned to the 'Music Snow Palace' where Xue Gou was detained.
"Liangqing..."
"Whitetail...foxgrass...."
Along the way, Xue Gou repeated these two vague words in his mouth.Bai Feili took out a small bottle from his bosom, which was a bottle of hemostatic medicine that he brought from Bai Lundao's Treasure Pavilion earlier.Bai Feili pushed Xue Gou's mouth away and let her swallow it dryly.This medicine can only stop the bleeding, she is still in danger.
Bai Feili hid Xue Gou in the Muxue Hall and passed two days safely.During the day, she followed Bai Lundao in Hei Wuchang's bedroom, and at night she slept in Muxue Hall to look after Xue Gou.On the third day, the little eunuch Shun Xin came to visit unexpectedly, and he came to issue an order to evict the guest.Bai Feili hid Xue Gou in the box, carried her into the carriage and left the palace with her.
"died?"
"Who?"
"You don't know what you did?"
It has been more than three months since Bai Feili handed over the bruised Xue Gou to Xie Liangqing.Today is Bai Feili's first time going up the mountain to see her.
Xue Gou pricked up his ears and heard someone coming from outside.It sounds like the footsteps are not like the master, or other senior brothers.She raised her head to face the visitor, with a single blue eye on her face.
"who is it?"
"it's me"
She recognized the voice.In the 'Music Snow Hall', the voice who has been talking with her all the time is Fei Li.Xue Gou sat up, groping his way with his hands in front of him, trying to get to the man.Seeing her moving around, Bai Feili felt very uncomfortable.
Just now she learned from Xie Liangqing that anyone who uses white-tailed fox grass to continue their life will lose an eye in exchange.He remembered the half-sentence that Xue Gou looked at her at the inn that day.
To tell you the truth, this eye is actually already blind...
"Sorry I couldn't..."
"This is my robbery"
