Chapter 15 Seek for death but fail to get it
Ling Er’s small mouth already didn’t know how to close. On her whole face was written, what is the matter with you miss? Are you not awake yet or should I go look for a doctor? In the end, Ling Er finally choked out a sentence, “I don’t understand.”
Not understanding was normal. Ling Er was still young. She hasn’t undergone the ways of the word and also didn’t understand the love between a man and a woman. She couldn’t understand that, but wasn’t it the same for Zhao Zimu? If she understood emotions and love, being reborn again, she wouldn’t be so calm when facing Lin Qing.
The reason she said “lover” was because she felt that the word was very suitable. If one let her explain the reason, she wouldn’t be able to explain it clearly. However, who could say that such unclear thing would remain unclear?
After noon, someone suddenly came to report in Zhao Zimu’s courtyard, saying that Jiu Qiansui let every beauty go to the main hall. Zhao Zimu was stunned for a moment and then went out with Ling Er.
The people in Qiansui’s residence knew that in order to survive, they shouldn’t inquire about things that shouldn’t be inquired about. If one should know about it, one would naturally get to know. What one shouldn’t know about, then one should pretend to know about nothing. Only like this would one live long.
Before arriving at the entrance of the main hall, the screams coming from inside could be heard from afar. The voice was sharp and full of pain as if it had just come out from the cold depths of hell, making people’s blood go cold.
Ling Er looked palely at Zhao Zimu once. Zhao Zimu gave her a reassuring look. Only after that did Ling Er calm down.
Right, it wasn’t as if she hasn’t seen such a scene before. Why should she be afraid? Ling Er thought.
There were too many people in Qiansui’s residence. Naturally, there were all kinds of people. Some who had angered Qiansui would become an example for everyone. Lord Qiansui would let everyone who angered him know how terrible the anger of Jiu Qiansui was.
Listening to the voices coming from the hall, there were some from a man and some from a woman. This made people be in deep thoughts. It turned out to be a punishment for both men and women. Ling Er couldn’t remember any more for how long such a thing didn’t happen in Qiansui’s residence. Unexpectedly, there were still some people who dared to enrage Lord Qiansui’s prestige.
The man was already beaten that his whole body was full of blood. One could hardly see his original appearance. If it wasn’t because one knew that he was a person, from the first glance, one would see a piece of rotten flesh.
If the facts were exactly like what Ling Er thought, the punished person was really extremely daring. He even dared to drop Lord Qiansui’s face.
Although, Ling Er liked the liveliness, but she didn’t like to see such a scene. Too bloody!
When the two walked to the entrance of the main hall, there were already many people inside. There were young and old maids and servants. There were also every courtyard’s beauty and their maid. Also, there were the people from the Prefecture of Arrest and the eunuch who served Lin Qing.
Lin Qing was sitting in the main seat of the hall. His face was gloomy and no expression could be seen from it. Some trusted aids stood beside him without even daring to breath hard. The atmosphere of the hall was repressive like a storm was about to come from the mountain.
Everyone was quiet like a stone sculpture that didn’t know how to move. They were afraid that a moment of carelessness would anger the person sitting in the main seat. In the middle of the hall, a man and a woman were kneeling. The face of the woman was ashen and deathly pale. Tears of despair was filled in her eyes.
Zhao Zimu had some impression of that woman. This woman was called Li Xiang and was also a beauty of Qiansui’s residence. It was just that she wasn’t favored. From the clothes of the man, it could be seen that he was also from Qiansui’s residence. It was just that he wasn’t someone important. From this attitude, Zhao Zimu understood at first glance.
Zhao Zimu took Ling Er and quietly paid their respect to Lin Qing. Lin Qing’s gaze fell on her. His gaze seemed to have paused for a moment before he let her retreat to a side.
Zhao Zimu took Ling Er and found a position that was not too far at the back nor too in the front. Then, her gaze fell on the people kneeling in the middle of the hall.
Two people were kneeling on the icy floor. The man’s arm had already been trampled. Blood and flesh blurred. He lay on the ground wailing and his face was twisted like a struggling bug. As long as someone slightly stepped on him, he would meet a tragic end.
The eyes around them showed indifference, sarcasm and fear, but there wasn’t compassion or sympathy.
After entering Qiansui’s residence, one would be Qiansui’s people. No one’s life was their own’s. They had to give whatever Qiansui needed. If one didn’t want to give or was unable to give, then use one’s life instead.
The fate of these two people could only be blamed on themselves.
Lin Qing signaled and several people of the Prefecture of Arrest stepped forward and stripped the man of all his clothes regardless of how he howled and pleaded.
The man had been stripped naked. His naked body shivered violently in the open. He was very light skinned. His head was buried on the lower body and the cones behind his next were exposed. The shape was pretty good. If you ignore the sorry state that the owner was in, you could still appreciate it. Zhao Zimu’s gaze couldn’t help but stay there a bit longer.
Suddenly a piercing gaze passed over her. Zhao Zimu’s eyelids shook. If her instincts weren’t wrong, that gaze came from the center. She sighed slightly in her heart. She closed her eyelids only leaving a small gap. She no longer paid attention to the things at the center of the hall.
Since he disliked that, then, she wouldn’t look anymore.
A man wearing a purplish red uniform of the Prefecture of Arrest held a leather whip in his hand. He swayed it lightly. A whistling sound followed by the sound of the whip landing on the man’s body could be heard and left with blood and flesh. The man cried out in pain. It was tragic and terrifying.
However, soon, he wasn’t able to scream anymore. The whip of the man from the Prefecture of Arrest fell like a storm and landed on his body. The blood and flesh were mixed and he even lost skin. The man’s body only shook instinctively, but he didn’t have the strength to shout and struggle anymore.
In order to prevent him from fainting, the people of Prefecture of Arrest used a strong drug that enhance the mental performance, ensuring that he wouldn’t pass out from being in extreme pain from the torture. He could only escape by dying, but how would Lord Qiansui let him die so quickly?
He would let him seek for death but fail to get it.
