Although the Cining Palace's bedroom was large, those abominable imperial guards had given Murong Qingyun some room to maneuver. However, no matter how he moved his hands and feet, he couldn't touch his body, and he had no way of committing suicide.
After enduring the torture from noon to afternoon, Murong Qingyun was almost insane. Anyone who saw him had no doubt that if a knife was given to Murong Qingyun at this moment, he would definitely stab the knife into his heart without hesitation and without any regrets.
After seeing this, Xia Muwan burst into tears.
The eunuch was frightened and quickly moved away, not daring to tease him again.
Xia Muwan was crying so hard that she couldn't even make a sound. At this moment, she felt like she could cry herself to death.
Sure enough, after a while, he fainted because he could not bear the grief.
The eunuchs and palace maids immediately and considerately helped her to calm down and gave her some cooling oil. In less than a cup of tea, Xia Muwan woke up again and continued to listen to the screams that sounded like she was in purgatory.
After a while, people from the Imperial Hospital came and without any explanation, they forced five large bowls of medicine into the screaming Xia Muwan's mouth.
To poison someone and make them mute, only one bowl is needed, but the emperor ordered that she must not speak again, otherwise it would be disobeying the emperor's order. In order to complete the task well and save their lives, everyone fed Xia Muwan five bowls of medicine.
Now, let alone a human being, even an elephant could be poisoned and rendered mute!
At the same time, no matter whether you encounter an elderly person, a child, a man, a woman, or a demon, as long as they exude a foul odor, it is undoubtedly Murong Yan. Capture Murong Yan alive and receive a reward of 50,000 taels of gold, divided among the meritorious service. This is decreed.
Half an hour after the imperial edict was issued, the entire capital was in an uproar. When Xia Muwan had previously caused trouble at the Meridian Gate, Qian Yeming had posted imperial edicts all over the imperial city demanding the capture of Murong Yan. The content read as follows:
Murong Yan, a wanted criminal of the imperial court, is proficient in hypnosis and disguise, capable of hypnotizing or disguising herself as anyone at any time. This cunning woman remains at large. The Empress has poisoned her with the "Wanli Chou" (a Chinese aphrodisiac). Therefore, I leave you alone.
50,000 taels of gold is equivalent to 1,000,000 taels of silver! This is not a small amount! Even if 10,000 people participate in the reward, each person will get 100 taels of silver!
Poor Murong Yan, who had disguised himself as an ordinary middle-aged man and was sitting in a teahouse closest to the Meridian Gate drinking tea and was secretly complacent, instantly turned pale after seeing this imperial edict.
Stinky for thousands of miles?
