Chapter 617 Punishment Room
On a cool summer day, the air is filled with the sound of cicadas, breaking the lifeless silence.

The prosperity and stability in Kyoto has been restored as before.

The fact that the Queen Mother failed in her rebellion and was imprisoned in Yongle Palace for life was widely spread throughout Beiling.

In the past, people were terrified by unfounded wars, and in the end it was all due to the tricks played by the Queen Mother deliberately trying to seek power and usurp the throne, deliberately disturbing the hearts of the people.

The courtiers who participated in the treason were all sent to the guillotine, and none of them survived.

On the day of the execution, the guillotine was packed with crowds of onlookers, with three floors inside and three floors outside, and the crowd was tight.

As the heads rolled to the ground, half the sky was directly stained red with blood.

The scene was extremely shocking, deeply engraved in the minds of those who witnessed it, enough to be remembered for a lifetime.

Concubine Jing cried and fainted several times in her own palace, the empress stayed in her palace that day, and even brought the imperial physician along for fear that she would not be able to come up in one breath.

The crusade against the Empress Dowager by the people is endless, and hot discussions on this matter can be heard in the streets and alleys.

And because Ling Yuan voluntarily handed over the military power of [-] Yulin Guards in front of civil and military officials to show his loyalty, he finally won the calamity.

As the dust of the conspiracy settled, the support of Ling Juncheng, the king of Beiling, among the people surpassed any previous one.

Beiling returned to its usual prosperity, and seemed to be much more stable than before.

The torture chamber of the imperial palace was filled with a horrible and gloomy smell.

There are five Six Imperial City Army guards at the gate, so strict that it is difficult for even a fly to fly in.

Before entering that gate, one could smell the smell of rotting meat coming from inside.

It was full of the smell of death.

Xiaodu Zimao stood behind Su Xi with his back bent and looking like a dog.

He could not help but cover his nose and frowned.

This place really makes one's scalp tingle.

He had long heard that the torture chamber of the imperial palace was a hell on earth, and this was his first time here.

Then he raised his eyes to observe the words and expressions of the master beside him, and whispered: "Imperial Concubine, do you really want to go in?"

"Well," Su Xi hardly hesitated, "It's impossible for Nanny Li to betray the Queen Mother suddenly, there must be something hidden in it, I must meet her."

Xiao Duzi sighed.

This place is the most unlucky place in the palace.

The empress didn't stay away, but actually came here in person, just for the sake of Nanny Li who had been in collusion with the Queen Mother for many years.

That woman's mouth has always been very strict, it would be good if the imperial concubine could ask something, if she couldn't, it would be a bad luck for her to come, it's not worth it.

Originally, the empress had just returned to the palace, so she had to stay far away from this kind of place.

"Your Majesty, all those imprisoned here will end up dead," Xiao Duzi pursed his lips and lowered his voice, "There are countless people who died here. Don't you feel afraid, Your Majesty?"

"The slave feels that there is a lot of yin here."

While speaking, Xiao Duzi shrank his neck.

He always felt that there was a gust of dark wind blowing at the door, which made his scalp numb, and he was frightened into a lot of cold sweat.

Su Xi withdrew her gaze from the distance, and suddenly shuddered: "I'm afraid, my hairs are standing on end!"

She had already smelled that strong corrosive smell, but she was only afraid that Xiao Duzi would panic, so she deliberately pretended not to show it, as if nothing had happened.

Jin Xiaoduzi asked such a question, but she finally couldn't hold back, and shrank her neck.

Xiao Duzi was stunned: "Then the lady is still going?"

"Well, let's go," Su Xi said without hesitation, "People are scarier than fools. I'm sure about this Li Nanny."
