Chapter 62: Scheming Beauty vs. Dark Minister 024
The person who said this was Xie Huai'an's subordinate.
Chu Li was looking at him in confusion. Just as she was about to ask, he spoke before her: "Oh no, Madam. The emperor has punished him and put him in jail. No one is allowed to get close to him!"
When Hatsuri heard this, everything in her hands suddenly fell to the ground, and she was terrified.
"What's going on? What happened?"
"I didn't know. When I saw you, you were covered in wounds and blood. That's why I came to tell you out of concern. You told me that I must not tell you that you were pregnant. But I was worried about you, so I came to tell you out of desperation. I hope you can give me some advice."
The subordinates did not want to say anything, fearing that the lady's fetal movement would be affected. However, the Lord looked like the injury was more serious than the last time, and they did not know what had angered the Emperor.
The emperor is so cruel!
Because of this incident, the Xie family underwent earth-shaking changes in a short period of time.
Everyone started to curse.
"I knew Xie Huai'an was no good. What's the use of a powerful official? He's nothing more than a dog by the emperor's side. Now that he's overthrown, those who were bullied by him can fight back!"
"He is so arrogant that he really thinks he is something. Now that he has offended the emperor, he will have to bear the consequences!"
"He was just a person who helped the emperor to block the enemy. He even gave me a few coins for the wedding banquet. Now I don't want to be associated with him. Can I get the money back?"
"I just don't know if he can come back. If he can't, it's a pity for his newly married wife, who is still pregnant, and such a thing happened."
When Xie's mother heard these rumors, she rushed out with a bucket and threw it at them.
"Normally, you all come to curry favor with us when we are not in trouble. Now you come to add insult to injury without knowing the whole story. You all look like human beings, but your hearts are dirty! It really makes me sick!"
When the women saw her like this, rumors started to spread again, all saying that their son had fallen.
This mother is crazy too.
Hatsuri didn't know what was going on. She was anxious but couldn't enter the palace. She didn't know what she had done wrong.
I am pregnant and it is inconvenient for me to walk.
I had no choice but to wait for the next notification at home.
The soldiers were also anxious.
At this time, Xie Huai'an woke up in pain, his hands were handcuffed to the wall.
There were marks of beating all over his body.
The executioner was none other than the man who had previously murdered Mr. Zhang - Lord Mu.
Lord Mu was sitting on the side drinking tea, feeling very comfortable. When he saw Xie Huai'an waking up, he looked at him with a sly look and a very happy tone: "Master Xie, I never thought that this is how you usually feel when you teach people. Today, I enjoyed it for once."
Two days ago, Xie Huai'an was questioned by the Emperor whether he had spared the daughter of the rebels and not killed her. He did not explain, but said that he had found out that she had died while fleeing from famine. However, Marquis Mu had already known about this before Lord Zhang died, so he said that he had kept her at home and that she had become his wife.
The emperor was furious.
Knowing that Xie Huai'an was not a person who liked to explain, he could not believe what he said: that she was not the daughter of a gang.
Xie Huai'an was unwilling to let Chu Li get involved in this matter, especially since she was pregnant.
So I have to suffer the pain myself.
He has suffered too much like this in his life.
Seeing Xie Huai'an lowering his head and not saying anything, Lord Mu felt that he was being ignored, so he took the hot water and poured it all over his wound.
Xie Huai'an is a tolerant person.
He said nothing about this.
No matter how Marquis Mu was tortured, he just wouldn't open his mouth. The emperor said he must live, but he didn't dare to kill him.
"Xie Huai'an, why do you pretend in front of me? Your pretentious gentlemanly demeanor only makes me feel disgusted. Even if it wasn't me standing here today, how could others treat you differently? There are too many people who hate you. Xie Huai'an, your good road has come to an end!"
Xie Huai'an's face was covered in blood, and even his voice was hoarse. His hair was a mess, and his body was covered in blood. His lips were cracked due to dryness, and blood was dripping out from the injured area.
He raised the corners of his lips, not taking him seriously at all, and said in a weak but powerful tone: "So what?"
Lord Mu was so angry that he wanted to touch him with something to torture him, but then he suddenly had an idea and thought of his weak spot.
"I can't deal with you, but can't I deal with your pregnant wife?"
These words completely made Xie Huai'an react.
He opened his bloodshot eyes, his pupils narrowed dangerously like death, and looked at him with a warning: "You try it."
Lord Mu seemed to be frightened by him. He knew that Xie Huai'an was a favorite of the emperor, and even the marquises like them were like grass in his eyes.
He was unwilling to give in. He had finally made it to today and could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Naturally, he would not let him go so easily.
"Xie Huai'an, you really exposed yourself. The most feared thing for a minister is a woman's weak spot! I thought people like you were nothing to be afraid of, but now you can't even get past the beauty test!"
Xie Huai'an still repeated the same words: "You try it."
Lord Mu was displeased to see him like this, so he asked people to torture him once again, and only stopped when he was just one breath away from death.
The only thing Xie Huai'an remembered was that he had to go home.
No matter how tortured you are, you must go home.
When Hatsuri found out that she was the reason for his imprisonment, she was so anxious that she was determined to break into the palace at all costs.
So she used her points to redeem Qinggong.
The soldiers looked at her as a weak woman and refused to take her to prison no matter what, especially since she was pregnant!
Until I saw the lady jump directly onto the roof.
Everyone went out in shock.
How come this lady is more powerful than you! !
So, one night.
After Lord Mu left, all the people in the prison had been carefully taken care of by Xie Huai'an, and all of them had done him a favor. As long as Lord Mu was not around, they would put him down, apply medicine on him, and feed him.
Everyone felt heartbroken.
At this time, Hatari followed the soldiers in. Because of their good relationship, they didn't need to sneak in.
Only Hatsuri looked around, fearing that some assassin might appear.
It wasn't until she saw Xie Huai'an lying there, covered in wounds, that her tears instantly welled up.
She rushed over and sat beside him, looking at him with his eyes closed, his body covered with bleeding and inflamed wounds. The soldiers beside him were also crying out of heartache.
"How could you treat our master like this! Has he ever done anything wrong? Why do you treat him like this?"
