Chapter 48 Let him perish in endless pain
"Other people's deaths have nothing to do with me!"
Han Ruixuan looked wronged.
"I did nothing except lie that the child had drowned, took Minister Jiang and his wife to the guest house to comfort them, and persuaded them to accept the compensation plan."
Feng Qingsui sneered, "Detaining and abusing abducted children, shielding murderers, fabricating evidence, physically imprisoning people, threatening and intimidating them—how can you call that doing nothing?"
Han Ruixuan was speechless.
"How did you and the Crown Prince set up Minister Jiang?"
Han Ruixuan wanted to say he didn't know, but when he saw Feng Qingsui grab the kettle, he quickly changed his words:
"The Crown Prince planned this! He said Minister Jiang was only pretending to accept the compensation and would definitely change his mind once he got away. We have to get rid of him."
"But Minister Jiang is an official appointed by the imperial court, so it's not easy to assassinate him directly. He sent people to monitor Minister Jiang's whereabouts. When he entered the palace to ask to see His Majesty, he ordered them to lead him to the side hall to wait."
"They also arranged for Consort Lu to bring His Majesty some iced drinks. She deliberately went to the side hall and then ran out crying, saying that Minister Jiang had flirted with her."
"Your Majesty was extremely fond of Concubine Lu at the time. After hearing her sobbing, he immediately had Minister Jiang thrown into the Heavenly Prison."
"There was a man who had the Crown Prince in the prison. He imprisoned Minister Jiang with several other criminals and instigated them to attack him. Minister Jiang was beaten to death that very night."
"This was all planned by the prince, it has nothing to do with me."
Feng Qingsui said calmly, "Even if Minister Jiang's death had nothing to do with you, you were the one who killed Madam Jiang."
Han Ruixuan wanted to rip his heart out: "It really wasn't me!"
"Don't try to quibble. The note left by the person who coerced Doctor Xun to attack Madam Jiang was written with your special orchid-scented ink."
"I don't know any Doctor Xun," Han Ruixuan said hurriedly. "I only made a hundred pieces of that orchid scented ink. One piece had a severe flaw, so I kept it. The others were given to Aunt Queen. The remaining piece was also given to Qiao Zhenzhen."
Speaking of Qiao Zhenzhen, he almost vomited blood.
He spent the whole day hunting geese and was pecked in the eye by a goose. When he escaped this time, he would cut pieces of the bitch's flesh and feed it to the white tiger.
Then roast the bones, grind them into powder, and scatter them in Yue Lake to feed the fish, so that she will never be reborn!
"The Queen found out about Concubine Lu framing Minister Jiang. After understanding the whole story, she decided to wipe out the roots, right?" Feng Qingsui asked.
Han Ruixuan nodded.
"She came to question me, and I couldn't hide it anymore, so I told her everything. The next day, Mrs. Jiang had a miscarriage and died."
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Qingsui confirmed: "You killed Madam Jiang and the Jiang family servants."
"no……"
Han Ruixuan opened his mouth to argue.
Feng Qingsui sneered, "The Crown Prince and the Queen have both killed people on their hands. Will they let you, an insider, stay out of it?"
Han Ruixuan: “…”
This person's guess was absolutely correct. After Madam Jiang died, the Queen had someone pass on four words to him: "No more trouble for ever."
He caused a car accident and a fire, sending the entire Jiang family to hell.
But how could he recognize it?
Although I don't know the origin of the woman in front of me, there is no doubt that she is investigating the truth behind the Jiang family's extermination and wants to avenge them.
He doesn't want to die yet!
"The Crown Prince and Aunt Queen killed them all, not me—"
Before he could finish his words, he was stabbed unconscious by Feng Qingsui.
…
Tonight, the Rongchang Marquis Mansion was filled with joy from top to bottom, inside and out. Not only could the guests enjoy delicious food, but the servants also had a feast to their stomachs.
The doorman and several gatekeepers were given a whole leg of lamb, two roast chickens, a roast duck, a roast goose, and a jar of Jinhua wine.
While the guests were having a feast and there were few people coming in and out of the house, a few people gathered together to eat and drink.
Everyone's face turned red from eating.
Han Ruixuan was lying on the horse's back. When he was brought back by a servant and a woman, they just took a quick look at him and let him go.
Only the doorman was a little puzzled: When the prince went out just now, there was clearly only one person, so how come there were three people when he came back?
But thinking that he hadn't seen this concubine Cui for a while, he wondered if she was being kept away by the prince.
He put his doubts behind him and continued to eat and drink.
Most of the servants in the mansion were transferred to the banquet hall. After Feng Qingsui and Wuhua tied up their horses, they helped Han Ruixuan walk towards the Yuehu Ice Cave without meeting anyone.
The Nine-Curve Bridge was filled with lanterns, illuminating the center of Moon Lake. However, there was no light in the corner where the ice cave was located, and it was dark and cold.
After pulling off Han Ruixuan's cloak, Feng Qingsui removed a silver needle from his neck and pierced his cervical vertebrae a few more times.
Han Ruixuan woke up from the darkness.
When he realized where he was, he was shocked.
He opened his mouth to call for help, but found that not only could he not make a sound, he couldn't even control his hands and feet.
——Let me go!
He blinked furiously.
——You can have anything you want! Just spare my life!
The woman dressed as a delphinium remained indifferent. She reached out and pushed him towards the ice cave.
The freezing water submerged him from head to toe.
Endless coldness rushed from his mouth and nose into his stomach, freezing his entire soul to tremble.
--Help!
——Help!
——Someone come and save me!
No one responded.
Just like those children who were not yet completely dead but were tied to stones and thrown into the bottom of the lake.
The moment he sank to the bottom, he felt something scattered under him, making a dull collision sound, and then he realized that it was bones.
The bones of the children who were tortured to death by the prince.
The prince originally wanted him to find a place to bury the children, but he suggested throwing them into the lake to feed the fish.
"It would be great to feed them to the fish. The fish will eat all their flesh and blood, leaving only the bones. If Your Highness likes, you can pick out a few skulls as souvenirs."
The prince readily agreed.
Later, I really selected a few beautiful skulls to make lamps, hung them in my dormitory, and kept them company day and night.
He never expected that one day he would sink to the bottom of the lake and be accompanied by these bones.
This is the cycle of nature, isn’t it retribution?
No, this was not his destiny.
He was born superior to others, and in the future he would inherit the title and become a marquis like his father, enjoying all the glory and wealth.
How could he die at the hands of a woman!
Suddenly he realized that he could move, so he pushed off with his feet and paddled towards the entrance of the ice cave.
It actually broke out of the water!
However, he just took a breath when he was given another injection in the shoulder and neck. He could no longer move and sank straight down.
After sinking to the bottom, you can slowly resume your movements.
Once, twice, three times... Finally, he no longer had the strength to float up.
Only then did he understand that the other party was deliberately giving him hope and then making him despair, deliberately making him experience the pain of near-death time and time again.
Let him perish in endless pain.
So cruel.
Feng Qingsui waited at the ice cave for a while, and when he saw that Han Ruixuan did not come up again, he was about to take off his clothes and go into the water.
Wuhua stopped her: "Miss, let me do it. You have just recovered from the cold, don't catch a cold again." After that, he jumped into the ice cave.
