Chapter 60 Revenge

Jiang Xinyue carefully analyzed the childhood of Emperor Xuanwu.

After the little emperor's little snake was deliberately killed by Wu Chengyi, it was thrown in front of him in a show of force.

But in the end, the little emperor just threw his "favorite" into the torture chamber, and never raised any pets since then.

To a certain extent, Jiang Xinyue felt that Emperor Xuanwu's worldview was similar to hers to a certain extent.

This is why everyone said that she was a substitute for Concubine Li when she was young, but she didn't believe it.

In fact, the emperor did not disappoint her.

If the emperor likes to find a substitute, then when Xiaohua was killed by Wu Chengyi, as the emperor of the highest rank, it would be easy for him to raise another little flower snake.

But he didn't. Instead, he hid all his hobbies and made careful plans, step by step, to kill the person he loved and put him into an irreparable situation.

So Jiang Xinyue would not do any substitute to resonate with Emperor Xuanwu. She wanted to do what the emperor had always wanted to do but didn't dare to do as he pleased.

It made him feel that Zhen Zhaoyi was another him in the world, who was controlled by Empress Dowager Wu and the Wu family when he was young and had no choice.

The sneaky figure went all the way to the north wall of Hexi Palace. Wang Dequan had already walked over with his people, but his footsteps were very light. He also wanted to know what tricks Su Jieyu was playing?

A small, curved knife slipped out from her sleeve. The dappled sunlight shone down. Concubine Su raised the thin curved knife in her hand and stabbed the little white dog.

Jiang Xinyue only felt a flash before her eyes, and a bright yellow figure shot out like an arrow from a bow.

"Bang!"

"Uh..."

"Woof woof woof... Mmm..."

She thought her master was hurt, and bared her teeth and called out to Emperor Xuanwu. When the emperor looked at her, she trembled and shrank in the emperor's arms, her whole body paralyzed.

"Come here!"

Jiang Xinyue shouted, and immediately she straightened her neck, moved her ears, and then jumped out of Emperor Xuanwu's arms with shining eyes, and ran straight behind him, into the arms of her master.

Concubine Su was kicked away, and the palm-length curved knife in her hand fell off. Wang Dequan picked it up and presented it to Emperor Xuanwu.

When officials from the Ministry of Justice interrogated extremely vicious criminals, they would use long and sharp curved knives to cut their wrists and ankles, and then use curved swords to hook out their tendons in their hands and feet, torturing them little by little until they spoke the truth.

So the question is, why did a concubine in Emperor Xuanwu's harem secretly keep this kind of interrogation instrument and use it on animals that had no ability to fight back?

In an instant, Concubine Su's face and Wu Chengyi overlapped.

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing that things were about to fail, Concubine Su burst into tears: "Your Majesty, it's not me... it's not me... it's Zhen Zhaoyi, it was Zhen Zhaoyi who framed me, I didn't mean to, I really didn't mean to, it was all Zhen Zhaoyi who wanted to anger me... Your concubine... Your concubine..."

"Shut up!"

The veins on Emperor Xuanwu's forehead were throbbing: "You are vicious and full of lies. I saw with my own eyes that you still want to rely on Zhen Zhaoyi. Do you really think I am a fool? Wang Dequan, remove Concubine Su's mourning clothes, demote her to a commoner, send her back to the Su family, tell the Minister of Justice, strip Su Wuyang of all his official positions in the Ministry of Justice, I never want to hear the name of this family again."

This is much more serious than demotion or banishment to the cold palace.

The concubine who had implicated her family and was disliked by the emperor, and who was sent back home after being stripped of mourning, had no way out.

Jiang Xinyue touched her chest where she had been kicked, and suddenly screamed, pointing at the corner of the north wall: "What...what is that?"

Emperor Xuanwu took a few steps back and hugged Jiang Xinyue, who was trembling with fear. He felt that she was as timid and obedient as the little pet, and she was pitiful.

Following the direction of her finger, Wang Dequan waved to the eunuchs behind him: "You guys go over and take a look."

The soil washed by the snow water was loose and soft, and a piece of apricot-colored cloth was exposed in the brown soil. The knotted part of the cloth had been loosened because of the long time, and the dark red and black soft tissue inside was exposed.

The eunuchs walked closer and smelled a very stinky fishy odor, which almost made them vomit.

But with the Holy Driver behind them, they didn't dare to lose their composure. They suppressed their disgust and dug up the soil, pulling out a small package of hardened objects.

"Huh?"

Shuangjiang tilted her head: "It looks like the dress our queen wore at the New Year's banquet."

"It's not our queen's." Xijue observed for a while before saying: "The dress our queen wore had silver thread embroidered on the collar, but this one doesn't. It should be the one Su Jieyu wore."

The blackened dress vaguely showed the petals of lily of the valley lily embroidered on it. After completely untying the knot, Xijue and Shuangjiang turned pale, covered their mouths and ran away.

They ran far away before holding onto the tree trunk and vomiting.

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

Jiang Xinyue, who had cried half of her head out of Emperor Xuanwu's arms and blinked her innocent eyes, asked in a daze: "Why do I seem to smell a bad smell?"

Emperor Xuanwu used his cloak to cover her head shyly, blocking her sight, staring at Concubine Su, who was already frozen on the ground and dared not move, with cold and murderous eyes, and gritted his teeth and said: "They found Xiao Aijiang's dirty things."

The person in his arms finally calmed down and his body was violently up and down again, this time because of anger and sadness.

Such Zhen Zhaoyi reminded Emperor Xuanwu of himself when he was a child.

At that time, the foreign relatives were in power, and Empress Dowager Wu controlled the government and the harem, which made him, a serious emperor, even breathe heavily and suppress.

The Wu family was arrogant and domineering, and they didn't take him seriously. He was oppressed in the front court and the harem.

Xiaohua was his first and most favorite pet. Every time Wu Chengyi entered the palace, he would play with Xiaohua until she was half dead.

At that time, he also cried like this while holding Wang Dequan...

During that trip to the torture chamber, Wu Chengyi even killed Xiaohua to see his joke.

From then on, he dared not show his feelings for his favorite things.

At that time, he was weak and could not protect what he loved.

Now that he is the master of the world, all threats no longer exist. Can't he help Zhen Zhaoyi to avenge and protect her favorite?

"Wang Dequan, before sending Concubine Su out of the palace, use the torture instrument she used to kill Xiao Aijiang to dig out her leg tendons. I think she also needs to experience the pain of Aijiang before her death."

"Yes, I obey your command." Concubine De

of Yanqing Palace

trembled, and half of the swallow's nest she fed into the mouth of the third prince spilled out. She widened her eyes and said in fear: "What? You said... it was Concubine Su who killed Zhen Zhaoyi's Xiao Aijiang, and hung it on her door to frame Zhen Zhaoyi?"

The palace maid nodded: "Your Majesty, it has spread throughout the palace now. The emperor was furious for his beloved, and Concubine Su... no... the sinner Su, had her leg tendons cut and was sent out of the palace bloody."
