Chapter 350 This is what a family should be like
"There's no purpose. My father doesn't know about this."
Bai Yu'an's mind was spinning rapidly. What Zuo Sixian wanted was evidence of Bai Yunfeng's rebellion, so all the affairs of the Northern Barbarians had to be separated from Bai Yunfeng.
"At that time, You Zhu was captured by the Northern Barbarian Princess. My sister and I, as You Zhu's family, initially only wanted to rescue him. However, later on, we discovered some issues within the Northern Barbarian royal family, and had no choice but to allow You Zhu to enter the palace as a prince. We had no other motives."
Bai Yu'an emphasized again, "Moreover, even if You Zhu is now the prince of Beiman, he has never thought of staying in Beiman. He has always insisted that he is a Jin person."
"Hehehe..." Zuo Sixian chuckled a few times, "It seems that the Second Young Master has already made up a story to remove your father from this matter."
"This is not a made-up story." Bai Yu'an couldn't help but feel a little excited.
He felt increasingly uneasy.
I don’t know how long Zuo Shanzhang and Zuo Sixian have been planning the current situation, nor do I know what they really want to achieve.
Do you want the entire general's family to be executed?
However, Bai Yu'an was clear that, apart from him, Lao Liu, and his sister, the only people who could testify for them were the Northern Barbarian King and Princess. But if they were really asked to testify...
Bai Yu'an was afraid that Emperor Jin would be even more wary of the Bai family's strength, and by then, Bai Yunfeng would be even more dead.
"Where is the witness?" As expected, Zuo Sixian asked with a smile.
Bai Yu'an pursed his lips, his jawline tense with nervousness.
He didn't know how to answer this question, and he couldn't answer it now.
"It seems Second Young Master is hiding something," Zuo Sixian slowly stood up and walked to the torture wall. "Second Young Master, I imagine you grew up in luxury and are now a handsome man. I'm afraid you can't handle the things on this wall..."
Bai Yu'an didn't show any fear. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes, looking as if he didn't care.
Zuo Sixian gritted his teeth and winked at his two trusted aides, "It seems our Second Young Master still wants to try out the things on the wall. You should fulfill his wish."
"Yes!" The two confidants looked at each other and began to take things from the wall.
They were obviously veterans in interrogating prisoners in the Censorate. One of them took out a whip full of barbs and started whipping Bai Yu'an.
When the first whip was applied, Bai Yu'an let out a hissing sound. In an instant, the veins on his forehead popped out and cold sweat immediately broke out, but he did not shout.
Next, when the two confidants fought again, Bai Yu'an made almost no sound. He just closed his eyes and endured everything silently.
Upon seeing this, the two confidants looked at each other in shock, with fierceness in their eyes and the strength in their hands increased a lot.
In fact, another purpose of torture is to deter other prisoners. However, if the person being beaten does not make any sound, the person carrying out the torture will feel frustrated and may even feel that he is being tortured psychologically.
Seeing that Bai Yu'an remained silent, the two confidants whipped him one after another, until Bai Yu'an was covered in blood and then fainted.
During the whole process, Zuo Sixian kept his back turned and did not look back.
"Master Zuo!" Seeing the prisoner fainted, the two henchmen stopped and reported to Zuo Sixian, "The prisoner has fainted. Do you want to splash water on him to wake him up before continuing?"
Zuo Sixian didn't say anything, but turned around slowly. When he saw the bloody man tied to the wooden frame, his expression changed obviously.
"Forget it." He quickly said in a cold voice, "Take him back, don't let him die."
"Yes, Lord Zuo!" Two confidants immediately pulled Bai Yu'an down.
The severe pain woke Bai Yu'an up immediately. He opened his eyes in a daze, and cold sweat broke out on his head and couldn't stop.
He felt that he could no longer stand, but was being dragged forward, with trails of blood beneath him.
When passing by Zuo Sixian, Bai Yu'an spoke with all his might, "The Bai... the Bai family was wronged... are you... sure you want to... repeat the mistakes of... your father?"
In an instant, Zuo Sixian was startled, even his eyes changed a little, and his hands at his sides clenched into fists.
Bai Yu'an was dragged away.
Zuo Sixian still stood there without moving. Bai Yu'an was indeed very smart. If he had a choice, he really didn't want to be an enemy of the Bai family.
But now... does he have any choice?
Zuo Shanzhang had already treated him as a chess piece. Now the player was dead, but how could he, the chess piece, have any way out?
He seemed to accept his fate and took a deep breath, then walked out of the interrogation room.
All I could see was blood, and the strong smell of blood made it difficult to open my eyes.
An idea suddenly popped up in Zuo Sixian's mind: if Li Suining saw him beating Bai Yu'an like this, would he hate him to death?
As soon as this idea came to him, he found it ridiculous.
Now, does he still have the mood to consider what that dumpling would think of him?
He took a step and walked towards the cell. He knew that Bai Yu'an would pass by You Zhu's cell on the way back, and he wanted to see how You Zhu would react.
Soon, he heard You Zhu shout, "Second brother!"
After Bai Yu'an was awakened by the pain, he remained awake and endured the pain by gritting his teeth.
He looked over immediately after hearing You Zhu's voice and said weakly, "Don't shout, don't... don't scare your sister."
You Zhu held the cell bars tightly with both hands and bit his lower lip so hard that it even drew blood. He did not shout again, but his tears fell like beads that had broken off the string.
This was the scene that Zuo Sixian saw when he walked over. Naturally, he also heard what Bai Yu'an had just said.
"Don't scare my sister!" They were afraid that Li Suining was also imprisoned nearby, afraid that she would hear their shouts, afraid that she would worry, afraid that she would be scared...
Zuo Sixian couldn't help but think, this is what a family should be like.
When he came to his senses, he saw You Zhu's hateful eyes. It was obvious that this little wolf cub wanted to eat him alive.
Originally, Zuo Sixian planned to interrogate You Zhu immediately at this time, but he suddenly felt that it was meaningless.
He could imagine that You Zhu would be like Bai Yu'an, not saying a word and not even crying out in pain.
In this way, it seems like I am just asking for trouble.
Zuo Sixian did not stop, but continued to move forward and left the prison of the Censorate.
The rain is still falling outside. Is it crying for this family?
Zuo Sixian turned back and called the jailer, "Find a doctor to treat Mr. Bai's injuries, and also... add braziers to his and You Zhu's cells."
The jailer was slightly surprised, glanced at Zuo Sixian secretly, and immediately nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Master Zuo, I'll do it right away."
