"Chu Chu, Bian Tao, I'll go with you."
The palace maid who delivered the message hesitated for a moment, but seeing Gu Yinwei's firm attitude, she did not refute.
She led the way, and Gu Yinwei and her servant followed behind her.
In a tea room in the Shanggong Bureau, Guo Sizhen prepared bamboo sticks, killing sticks and other torture instruments.
The palace maid massaged Guo Sizhen's legs, and Guo Sizhen admired her hands with her fingers raised. Although Guo Sizhen was only 32 years old, her skin was firm and her complexion was rosy.
Although she was nominally a servant, she lived a more luxurious life than her master.
"When the little rascals come, I'll beat them with a stick first, then poke their hands with bamboo sticks. I'll torture them severely to see if they confess their guilt."
Gu Yinwei just arrived at the door and heard these words. She secretly thanked herself for following her, otherwise Bian Tao and Chu Chu would have been in great pain today.
Chuchu, Biantao straightened his body, breathing rapidly, obviously frightened.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Gu Yinwei's words were soft but powerful.
With her encouragement, the two of them walked over the threshold hand in hand.
When Guo Sizhen saw the two of them, he immediately shouted, "The murderer is here, beat him up!"
"You two slaves, kneel down now."
Guo Sizhen had a fierce look on her face and spoke in a sonorous and powerful tone. Anyone else would have been frightened to their knees by her aura, but the two of them did not kneel.
Tontao straightened his back and Chuchu clenched his teeth. Although they were nervous, they did not show any fear.
"May I ask Guo Sizhen, what mistakes did Chuchu and I make?"
"How dare you ask? You are violating palace rules and smuggling purses. You are totally wrong."
"Come here, give me twenty blows first."
When Chuchu heard this, her body trembled and she almost fell to the ground. Bian Tao pulled her arm to help her stand steady.
"What evidence do you have?" asked Bian Tao.
"Of course I do. Xiaoqiu from Qionghua Palace is proof. Ever since she bought your purse, she's been coughing all day, bedridden, and on the verge of death. What else can you deny?"
Chuchu and Biantao were silent. Guo Sizhen thought they were scared and shouted, "Prick their hands with bamboo sticks."
Two strong maids came forward and Gu Yinwei walked in from outside the threshold.
"Guo Sizhen has such great authority."
