After ending his career as a proton and returning to the distant country, almost all the personnel Yi Chenjing came into contact with were related to the Southern and Northern Wars. He was not proficient in legal punishments and had no choice in the face of prisoners who were severely whipped and still refused to speak.
.
"It seems that seventh brother has encountered a problem, do you need my help?" The leisurely tone was quite abrupt compared to the cruel execution ground. All the soldiers turned around in surprise and saw the peaceful smile of the fifth prince Yi Chenxuan.
To put it bluntly, the person Yi Chenjing doesn't want to see the most is her half-brother Yi Chenxuan. It seems that wherever he appears, nothing good will happen - even if he doesn't appear, any place with his smell will cause trouble.
It was unbearable. However, what he was thinking in his heart could not be shown on his face. Facing the cunning and cunning Yi Chenxuan, Yi Chenjing could only respond perfunctorily.
"I won't bother you, Brother Five Emperors, they are just a few bad guys who don't know where the world is. Sooner or later they will tell the truth if you give them a few more whips."
"The battlefield is changing rapidly. As a general, how can the seventh brother spend too much energy on such trivial matters?" Pretending to be concerned and shaking his head, Yi Chenxuan kept all his thoughts hidden. No matter how he looked at it, he was gentle and elegant, and was most loved by Emperor Yao.
The scholar-prince raised his hand and raised his hand. Su Jinyan came forward respectfully behind him. Yi Chenxuan's eyes were as clear as the wind and water, and he seemed to say casually: "Jinyan, these people are left to you. If you can't tell the truth within half an hour,
You are the only one asking."
Nodding heavily to show her acceptance of the order, Su Jinyan walked towards the thirty people tied to the pillars, turning a blind eye to the questioning and ridiculing eyes around her - Yi Chenjing had ordered to use all imaginable methods to interrogate, whip, beat, and even repeatedly blow his head
Immersed in water, the result is still not a word, what can a little attendant do?
No one who stood by with the mentality of watching a joke would have thought that less than half an hour later, all their suspicions would be overturned.
"Who sent you here? What is the purpose?" The cold tone was rigid and monotonous. Before Su Jinyan took action, none of the thirty people were willing to say a word, and they just looked at him with contempt.
"You wretched little brat! It's not your turn to be humiliated by a piece of shit like you! Bah!"
Bloodshot saliva sprayed out, and Su Jinyan turned away expressionlessly, her beautiful blue eyes calm and calm, as if the person was not scolding him. After identifying that the person who made the arrogant words was the leader, Su Jinyan left without saying a word.
He came in front of him and stretched out two fingers to pinch the dirty fingers of the man. With a little force, there was a crisp sound and the finger bones were broken.
A broken bone is not life-threatening, but the pain it brings is far better than a whipping. No matter how strong a man is when he suddenly suffers such severe pain, he can't help but cry out in pain. But that person has no time to cry out the pain. What happens next
For a moment, the sound of bone fractures was heard one after another, accompanied by an almost excruciating wail that resounded through the remote army camp, causing all the soldiers to remain silent and afraid to breathe.
Hidden beneath the slender figure and beautiful face was a ferocious and bloodthirsty nature. Yi Chenjing had known that Su Jinyan was very strong in kung fu but had no idea that he was so ruthless, and was dumbfounded for a moment.
"Aren't you still willing to say it?" Looking at the pale and twisted face, Su Jinyan's tone still did not waver at all.
But without waiting for an answer for a moment, the unbearable torture came again. No one could see clearly how the long, white and thin hands moved. When they reacted, they could only hear screams that were not human at all, breaking through the sky.
, the strong man who had just scorned and cursed raised his head high with blood on his face, and his left eye actually shrank, leaving only a hideous blood hole!
Even Yi Chenjing, who had seen countless mutilated limbs and broken arms, couldn't help but gasp, secretly frightened by this hellish torture. Only Yi Chenxuan and Su Jinyan in the audience remained calm, and the latter still held the dye in his hand.
A sharp dagger covered in blood, and a round bead lying in a pool of deep red blood at his feet, which was...a gouged out eyeball.
A few young recruits couldn't bear the bloody stimulation and began to retching. The veterans looked away and looked elsewhere, hoping to get rid of the fear and disgust in their hearts. Yi Chenjing also wanted to do the same, but his identity was different, and Yi Chen
Xuan was right in front of him, and he didn't want to be thought of as cowardly. Even though he felt extremely uncomfortable as if something was blocking his throat, his eyes never left the prisoner whose eyes were gouged out.
"There are many mosquitoes in the northern plains, especially this season. There are countless hungry bugs from the sky to the ground." Seeing that Su Jinyan had already frightened everyone, Yi Chenxuan opened the folding fan and fanned it slowly, with no smile on his face at all.
Affected by the bloody scenes, "these mosquitoes like the smell of blood the most. Just imagine, if you put a person with wounds all over his body bleeding in the grass, would he still be able to see a living person the next day - oh no, would he still be able to see a whole corpse?"
?”
Insects eat rats, eat bones and flesh, and die slowly in severe pain. Is there any more terrifying punishment than this?
Maybe there is, in Yi Chenxuan's mind.
If this continues, there will be no need to eat in the past few days. In the end, Yi Chenjing couldn't hold himself back and said with a cold face: "Brother Five Emperors is in charge of internal affairs and came to the front to intervene in the military conquest. Isn't it a bit overstepping?"
"Really?" Yi Chenxuan shrugged, "I'm just helping you to find out the truth. Seventh brother, you are too indecisive to do this kind of thing. Naturally, the elder brother has to do it for you."
Regardless of whether Yi Chenxuan was sincere or fake, Su Jinyan's cold behavior indeed acted as a threat. The other twenty or so strong men showed varying degrees of fear and horror, and some even wet their pants. Yi Chenjing was speechless.
You must know that in the eyes of people who don't know the truth, the fifth prince Yi Chenjing is a friendly person. Being too targeted will only make the soldiers disgusted. Now is a tense period when morale is low and war is about to break out. There must be no mistakes.
.
Yi Chenjing's silence was undoubtedly her connivance to Yi Chenxuan. She sneered without any trace, and her gentle but cold voice was half a minute louder: "How? Does anyone want to say something? Or do you all want to try the taste of hundreds of insects eating bones?
Marching is lonely, so occasionally you should relax and watch some good shows."
The strong man who had his left eye gouged out couldn't scream anymore. He was shaking and barely raised his head and turned to look sideways. However, it was obvious that his sharp gaze was not as effective as Su Jinyan's raised dagger. As soon as Yi Chenxuan finished speaking, someone came.
Begging for mercy with tears.
"Shut up!" The strong leader roared in pain, "Shut the hell up!"
That angry shout more or less stopped the panic of the others, and the answer that was about to be asked was silenced again. Su Jinyan did not wait for Yi Chenxuan's order, flipped her wrist, raised the dagger and was about to stab the man in the other eye.
, just at the moment when blood was about to splash, an unexpected dramatic scene happened.
"Stop! I said, I said!"
The one who surrendered in despair and hoarse was the strong leader who seemed to be the toughest and most unwilling to bend his knees.
Yi Chenxuan approached, hiding from the pool of blood on the ground in disgust, the coldness in his eyes made the strong man shudder: "Say."
"First, please promise not to kill us..." The strong man was out of breath in pain, but his mind was clear, "Also, I can only tell one person the truth, this is my final bottom line!"
"I'll say it again, I should handle matters related to the expedition. The Five Emperors——"
"Of course it's up to you to handle it." Unexpectedly, Yi Chenxuan interrupted Yi Chenjing's grab for the confession, showing no concern for the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes, as if he had planned to only extract a confession without getting involved, "I'll leave it to you.
Okay, Seventh Brother, you should know how to deal with this kind of thing again?" The elegant smile looked like a complete mockery in Yi Chenjing's eyes, but Yi Chenxuan didn't care what he thought, and rubbed his shoulders, showing a tired look:
"I can't get involved in other matters. Seventh brother can help himself. I'm going to have some rest - ah, by the way, how about having a drink together in the evening? Just think of it as a way to cheer up Xiaobie Qige."
Yi Chenjing's face remained as usual, but her heart sank.
Bai Qige had only been back for less than an hour, but Yi Chenxuan actually learned the news so quickly. As expected, the person eavesdropping outside was Su Jinyan. It's a pity that his skills are not as good as others. If his martial arts were higher than Su Jinyan's, he wouldn't be so patient. All he had to do was pull out this
The thorn in his heart can no longer be controlled by Yi Chenxuan. Why should he be afraid that Su Jinyan will jump over the wall and hurt Bai Qige?
If you have a chance……
Getting rid of Su Jinyan is far more important than getting rid of Yi Chenxuan.
Dusk fell quickly, and the bonfires were lit. After a few days of tossing and restless work, Bai Qige suddenly realized that it was already evening when her stomach kept growling. The alluring fragrance wafted vaguely, and Bai Qige
Sniffing, Lulu's hunger protested even more fiercely.
"I'm hungry. I can hear the drumming in your belly outside the tent." Yi Chenjing stepped into the tent, carrying a simple basket in his hand. The alluring aroma came from inside.
If she was hungry for a while, she would collapse. Bai Qige rushed to Yi Chenjing without caring about her appearance. Without saying a word, she grabbed the basket and lifted the cover. She swallowed. There were two large cakes, a bowl of white porridge and a plate in the basket.
Side dishes, and cooked meat wrapped in oil paper and cut into pieces. This is the treatment that the general and several lieutenants only get when they join the army.
"How long has it been since you've eaten well?" Seeing that Bai Qige didn't have time to talk and stuff food into her mouth desperately, Yi Chenjing first chuckled, then frowned, with a hint of distress in her eyes, "Slow down, no one will compete with you.
, be careful of choking."
Who knows how many days have passed. Anyway, since the day she took Bai Haoyu to escape, she only had a real meal at the Lingyun City Inn, and she swallowed it down with full of worry. Bai Qige swept away the food like a wind and a lingering cloud.
He patted his chest with satisfaction, and then had time to talk to Yi Chenjing, who was sitting quietly beside him: "Is there anything else?"
"...It's enough to fill your stomach, don't eat too much, it will hurt your body."
Bai Qige also knew that overeating was harmful to the body. She put away the dishes and let out a sigh of relief. The drowsiness after having had enough wine and food filled her body. She lazily sat back in Yi Chenjing's general chair: "The formation diagram has been drawn.
, just say a few words and you will understand. How are those people doing and what are the questions?"
"Yi Chenxuan jumped out and interfered, but I always felt that he seemed to have known the inside story before and left without asking. He also told me that he had found out about your return."
After all, Su Jinyan's words could not be fully believed. Bai Qige didn't have high expectations before, but she didn't feel disappointed or surprised at all. She said lightly "Oh" and then stretched her body, getting to the point of the matter: "Who ordered them to come here?"
of?"
The fingertips trembled slightly, but Yi Chenjing pretended to be relaxed and answered calmly.
"The leader confessed, but the credibility of the answer is quite low - he said that Bai Haocheng sent them to protect you and Yi Chenxuan... and to wait for an opportunity to take my life."
