Fu Hengyu's face was full of sarcasm. He had actually planned to do these things and had already calculated all the gains and losses.
As long as Heng Yu can be controlled, any news about Chi Mu can be easily spread.
Even though things have come to this point, he still refuses to give in.
He snorted coldly and ordered the people beside him, "Don't kill him, get the information for me."
He turned and left.
There were torture instruments all over the room, but Heng Yu did not show any fear. Instead, he was a little worried about Shen Yuerong's current situation. He was even thinking about how to pass this news to Chi Mu.
The sound of the whip biting flesh and the man's muffled groan filled the entire room.
This torture lasted for three days.
Seeing that there was no healthy flesh left on his body, Fu Hengyu asked someone to splash water on the man in front of him to wake him up.
"It's been so long, have you thought about whether you should speak up?"
Heng Yu closed his eyes and didn't take the matter to heart at all, as if no matter how much damage his body suffered, it didn't matter to him at all.
"As expected of someone who once stayed by the prince's side, a beating of this degree would have killed an ordinary person, but I see that you are not affected at all. It seems that you can still hold on for a long time."
Fu Hengyu thought of something and whispered something in the ear of the person next to him.
"In the three years I've been a frontier general, I've seen a lot of new toys. Since... you're still unwilling to give in, then help me test the power of these new toys."
Seeing that everyone had moved all the things over, the man returned to his original position. Even if Heng Yu had great endurance, he still couldn't help but utter a sound when faced with a punishment that was even more severe than before.
Listening to the man's miserable cry, he promised him again, "As long as you tell me what I want to know, I promise... you will live a prosperous and worry-free life for the rest of your life."
Heng Yu spat out the blood in his mouth, his eyes full of arrogance, "You promise? What can you promise? What does the wealth of the General's Mansion have to do with you? It's all Miss Shen's...ah!"
Before he could finish his words, someone pressed down fiercely on his wound. The instant pain made him lose consciousness.
"What a nasty thing!"
Fu Hengyu took back his hand and wiped it with a handkerchief beside him. "I leave it to you. Don't play with me to death!"
After leaving his place, Fu Hengyu went to Shen Yuerong's yard.
As soon as I walked in, I saw food on the table that had never been touched.
The woman acted as if nothing had happened and continued fiddling with the herbs.
"Rong'er."
Hearing his voice, Shen Yuerong raised her head with some displeasure, and looked at him with annoyance in her eyes.
"You're here? What are you doing again?"
Fu Hengyu sat opposite Shen Yuerong, as if it was not the two of them who had completely broken up a few days ago.
He reached out and brought the exquisite meal prepared on the side to the woman.
"I heard that you have always been in poor health, so you must not stop eating. Don't worry, you will be treated the same as before, so no one will dare to tamper with the food or treat you unfairly."
The food in front of me is no different from before.
But my mood is different now, and the person in front of me is the most annoying one at this moment.
Seeing that she still didn't make a move, he picked up a chopstick and wanted to put it into her mouth.
But Shen Yuerong reached out and knocked the food away.
"Why are you pretending here? I'll starve to death, and then I can make room for your little lover. I can also let that child become the legitimate son of the general's mansion, and Du Wan won't have to suffer any more. Why not?"
When the last fig leaf was torn off, Shen Yuerong had already made preparations to fight to the death.
But being imprisoned and restricted in her freedom made her more sad than killing her.
"You can't die."
Fu Hengyu looked at her morbidly, "I used to think that as long as you died, everything would be fine."
Shen Yuerong passed away in grief, and he naturally inherited everything in the General's Mansion. He was also able to take on the Shen family's connections, and would be able to walk all over the capital city in the future.
But there are some deviations from the plan.
Shen Yuerong happened to get in touch with Chi Mu.
Although he was a little greedy at the moment and wanted to include the prince as his own network, he would have more opportunities only if Shen Yuerong was alive.
"Even if I'm alive, I won't go along with you, let alone help you do evil. Don't even think about me helping you."
The man didn't mind at all, he reached out and stroked Shen Yuerong's cheek.
"You haven't had a good rest recently, and you haven't eaten on time. You look haggard. There will be a banquet in the palace in a few days. If people see the General's mistress in this pitiful state, I'm afraid people will gossip about her. So you'd better eat well recently."
Shen Yuerong turned her head away, out of sight and at peace.
A person's patience is limited. He stood up and looked at the person in front of him with a somewhat cold gaze.
"I'm giving you face, so you'd better keep it. Eat the food obediently. If you don't eat it, I have the ability to have someone feed it to you."
He stood up, and two sturdy servants came over from the door. "Keep an eye on her. She must eat all the food. Even if there is any left, you must feed it to her."
"Yes, my lord."
These two servants looked somewhat unfamiliar. I guess they were following Fu Hengyu and no one knew when they were arranged to stay in the mansion.
Shen Yuerong still refused to eat, so the nanny simply grabbed the food beside her and tried to put it into Shen Yuerong's mouth.
Qinghua stood up with some fear and walked to Shen Yuerong's side.
"Don't…"
She looked at her young lady with some distress, and then walked to Shen Yuerong's side.
"Miss, you are made of iron and steel. No matter what happens, you should... take care of your health."
Under the somewhat scary gaze of the nanny, Qinghua took the chopsticks and fed Shen Yuerong mouthful by mouthful.
Although she was somewhat reluctant, she ate a lot for Qinghua's sake.
Looking at the remaining food at the bottom of the bowl, Qinghua looked at the two burly maids timidly.
"My young lady doesn't usually eat so much, Madams, this is just a little bit left, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Pleading eyes fell on both of them.
The two maids just snorted coldly and then turned and left.
Qinghua couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground. "Miss, what do you think we should do next? Why did the general suddenly become like this? He used to... He would always treat you very well no matter what, why is he now..."
