Chapter 303 Ye Zheng, you won’t ruin this matter, right?
Ye Zheng hurriedly handed over the list.
Zhu Feng took the list. Although it was just a few thin pieces of paper, his hand, which could easily wield the fine steel sword, felt slightly heavier, as if the pieces of paper weighed a thousand pounds.
He clutched the roster tightly, then said to Xu Miaoyin and the others, "You all go back."
After saying that, he stepped back and prepared to close the door.
At this time, Ye Zheng stepped in.
Zhu Feng frowned.
Ye Zheng hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the list has been completed, and I still need to distribute it."
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment and let him into the imperial study.
Xu Miaoyin and the other concubines slowly stood up. Although she thought things might turn around after seeing Ye Zheng go in, she still felt heavy in her heart.
So many people have died.
Wu Wan, who was standing behind her, had a gloomy look on her face.
Ye Zheng, I hope you won’t ruin this matter.

After walking a few steps into the imperial study, Ye Zheng felt cold sweat all over his back.
He often came to this imperial study, but he had never felt such a strong invisible pressure as he did at this moment, which made it difficult for him to breathe and his heart to beat.
Zhu Feng had already walked to the table and sat down.
He opened the roster and scanned the names one by one.
Li Yulan, Wang Yue, Lin Xianger, Wu Juan...
Then, he let out a sigh.
Turn to the second page again——
Yang Zhenzhen, Yunmei, Xiuya, Cao Jingyi...
Every time he looked at a name, his aura would change slightly. Ye Zheng, standing beside him, understood it all too well.
After reading the last page and the last name, Zhu Feng was silent for a long time. Then he picked up a pen, ticked off all the names on the list, and said, "Send it out."
Ye Zheng quickly took it and said, "Yes."
After saying that, he turned and went out. Just as he was about to open the door, Zhu Feng suddenly said, "Stop."
Ye Zheng's heart trembled again. He hurriedly stopped and looked back at him: "Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions?"
“…”
Zhu Feng was silent for a long moment, then he said in a deep voice, "Tomorrow—the list should be handed over to me."
Ye Zheng's heart moved slightly.
He immediately nodded and said, "Yes."
Then he opened the door and walked out.

The bloody smell in the torture chamber that day was several times stronger than before.
It's a little difficult for people to breathe.
When pouring cold water again failed to wake Si Nanyan on the rack, the jailers finally took her down from the rack while cursing.
One of the jailers cursed: "This damn girl, she's really stubborn."
"Yes, everyone else was crying and begging for mercy, but she refused to say a word, not even a scream."
"It might not be easy to get her to confess in this state."
"Pooh!"
Upon hearing this, the leading jailer said fiercely, "Since Concubine Kang has sent a message, it's best to make her confess. If she doesn't, hmph, she'll die too!"
"That's true."
"She won't survive anyway."
Several people dragged her into the cell like a piece of meat. Along the way, the palace maids in the cells on both sides cried and screamed, and some even fainted from fright.
Nan Yan was thrown onto a pile of hay and the gate was closed again.
The blood on his body flowed down and soaked the hay beneath him.
At this time, Nan Yan slowly opened her eyes.
Just now, I almost couldn't make it.
Although pretending to be dead is too cowardly, it is good to suffer less anyway.
She used the last bit of her strength to clench her fists.
"I don't want to...die here..."
