Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 822 Punishment
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and his men immediately took the two couples for interrogation.

"Lu Baichuan, you broke into our prince's palace without permission and humiliated him like this. You will die a good death!"

Zhuo Wei's whole face turned red. Only now did he realize what happened. He couldn't be caught or admit anything, otherwise everything would be over.

Yan also shouted with fear on her face: "Yes, yes, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. We didn't know that the medicine was poisonous. A thief must have sneaked into my house and did something while others were not paying attention." , we don’t know anything!”

"Xiaoyu is my biological daughter. How could I, a mother, do something to my own daughter? It's all a misunderstanding..."

Yan's reaction was faster than Zhuo Wei's. Zhuo Wei could only curse people, but Yan's reaction was at least a few words of defense.

However, Lu Baichuan was not that easy to fool, and he waved his hand and was taken away without giving them much chance to talk.

He has been staring at the Zhuo family's case for a long time, and naturally he wants to interrogate it in person. However, these two couples have too many evil intentions and cannot interrogate it together, so they can only do it separately and come one by one.

According to priorities, Lu Baichuan went to Zhuo Wei first.

Zhuo Wei had already been injured by the cane torture, but now he was tied to the torture frame, and his whole body was so uncomfortable that his facial features were twisted together.

"Lu Baichuan, you rebellious bastard, I am your father-in-law. If you treat me like this, aren't you afraid of being punished by God?"

"If you let that unfilial daughter come to see me, I don't believe she can watch me being tortured!"

"Let me go, I'm going to see the emperor and the prince! I don't believe that this huge capital can be covered by your single hand, Lu Baichuan!"

……

He kept cursing, and Lu Baichuan felt a little irritated and said, "It's too noisy. Gagged his mouth and beat him first before trying him again."

"Yes!"

The jailer immediately found a smelly rag and stuffed it into his mouth. He also found a barbed whip and beat him without saying a word.

Even though his mouth was blocked, it didn't stop Zhuo Wei from shouting like a pig, making him want to swallow the smelly rag in his mouth.

Yan, who was imprisoned not far away, was trembling with fear when she heard Zhuo Wei's voice. She never thought that she would be betrayed by her biological daughter.

A moment ago, they were still dreaming about their bright future, and they would definitely have a good life in the future. Now, they were about to face torture in the prison. Yan curled up into a ball, holding herself in the corner, but her mind was running fast. With.

The fact that Lu Baichuan could rush in at such a fast speed meant that he had set up an ambush before. And if Zhuo Jiayu deliberately tricked Zhuo Wei before throwing the bowl, she was cooperating with the Dongting people, presumably to allow Lu Baichuan to obtain evidence, so Lu Baichuan That's why he arrested the two of them directly for trial without any scruples.

Now that I'm Shen Zhuowei, it will definitely be my turn soon, so what should I do?
Whether he refuses to say anything like Zhuo Wei or confesses honestly, there might be a way to survive.

Anyway, it was Zhuo Wei who had always been in contact with those people. He was mostly guilty of not reporting what he knew, and his crime should not lead to death.

As for Zhuo Wei, husband and wife are like birds in the same forest. They fly away when disaster strikes. Her life is the most important.

She can even abandon her own daughter at a critical moment, let alone a man who doesn't even have her in his heart?
She has also planned a lot for herself over the years. Even if the Duke's Palace is gone, she can spend the rest of her life safely, but she will no longer be as glamorous as before.

But this is nothing compared to surviving.

In such a short period of time, she had already found a way out for herself, and she no longer panicked in an instant.

Yes, as long as the blame is placed on Zhuo Wei, she can live!Zhuo Wei, on the other hand, still had some backbone. He was beaten until he was covered in blood, but he didn't say a word.

Such a person is cold-blooded and selfish. The only thing he cares about is himself. Even if he threatens his loved ones, it will be useless. We still have to start with him.

Lu Baichuan was not anxious at all and let the jailer continue the torture.

In fact, he has a powder given by his wife that can make people tell the truth, but if he doesn't want to use it, he has to let Zhuo Wei taste the torture. Otherwise, how can he be worthy of his wife who has been living outside for so many years? bitter.

Zhuo Wei looked at him fiercely. He no longer had the strength to curse, and said through gritted teeth: "If you have the ability, kill me!"

"It would be boring to kill you. Don't worry, not only will I not kill you, I will also serve you with delicious food and drink, ensuring that you live well."

Well, if you live well, you can take it out and give it a beating every day to relieve your hatred.

"Lu Baichuan! Where did my Duke Mu's Mansion offend you?"

Zhuo Wei really couldn't understand. If it was a matter of family recognition, then it would be fine if he didn't recognize him. Why was he still targeting him everywhere?

"The Duke of Guo was joking. Lu is a well-behaved person, so naturally he doesn't bother to play those little tricks. As for today's matter, the Duke of Guo is well aware of it, so why bother asking for trouble?

If the Duke of Guo hadn’t harbored evil intentions towards Lu, and even sacrificed his own daughter to frame me, how could Lu have caught the flaw so quickly?

If the Duke of Guo can reveal the person behind the scenes, Lu can go to His Highness the Crown Prince to intercede, and since the Duke of Guo still has some relationship with his wife, the Duke of Guo can go more comfortably.

However, the Duke is still pretending to be crazy and acting stupid, so don't blame Lu for being cruel. "

As soon as he finished speaking, the jailer beat him harder.

Zhuo Wei gritted his teeth tightly, angry that Lu Baichuan was not accommodating at all, and even more angry with himself for raising a white-eyed wolf. He had always been cautious, but he never expected that his daughter would set him up and end up like this.

"There's no one behind the scenes. I just can't understand how you dare to be so rampant in the capital despite your humble background!"

As he spoke, he took a sip, spat out a mouthful of blood on the ground, and continued: "It was my bad luck this time that I fell into your hands... Well!"

Just as he was talking, he was hit by a whip on the face, and his face was instantly bloody, but he was still not ready to confess.

Having worked with that person for most of his life, it was not unreasonable for that person to be willing to help him again and again. Although he had no ability, he was good at keeping his mouth shut.

And he knew very well that if he didn't tell, he might still have a chance to survive, but if he told him, he would definitely not survive. That person's methods were no worse than Lu Baichuan.

Lu Baichuan smiled and said: "The Duke seems to have forgotten that just because you don't say it doesn't mean that others won't say it. Madam Ling is right next door. Are you sure she can withstand these tortures like you?

How can a mother who could even drive her own daughter to death keep her mouth shut for the sake of the Duke?

Or, could she be worth the benefits of staying alive?

Mr. Guo, please think about it carefully. If we ask this from Mrs. Ling, then Mr. Guo will be of no use to us. By then, we don’t know whether we can keep a whole body. "
