Chapter 44
Therefore, we must not hide it at this time.
"Mu Qian, I have no choice."
"I suppose you know my situation by now."
“The Yong’an Marquis Mansion is a den of tigers and wolves to me. To protect myself, I must make plans for myself.
If you had come earlier, I would definitely not…"
Gu Jingchun sobbed again as he spoke.
Chen Hechuan was silent for a moment before he held her in his arms and slowly spoke to comfort her.
"It was my fault."
"It's my fault that I didn't find you sooner."
"But it's not too late now."
"As long as I'm here, I'll never let you marry anyone else."
"Don't worry, I will find a solution."
*****
And on the other side at this time.
Lan Xin was almost going crazy because she couldn't find Gu Jingchun.
Just when she was at a loss and wanted to secretly send a signal to find someone, she saw Gu Jingchun coming out from next door.
There was also a man coming out with her.
At this time, Gu Jingchun's eyes were red and swollen, and his steps were unsteady.
Lan Xin was startled.
Without caring about anything else, he hurried over to support the man.
"Miss, are you okay?"
Gu Jingchun shook his head.
Lan Xin then looked at the man again, and unexpectedly, this time she met his cold eyes.
This look from a superior instantly made Lan Xin lower her eyes and take a deep breath.
Gu Jingchun was supported by Lan Xin and slowly walked down the stairs.
After getting on the carriage, Lan Xin was about to ask what happened when she heard Gu Jingchun speak.
"Don't ask anything, just hurry back home."
After returning home.
Gu Jingchun immediately called Xiaoman over.
Seeing that Gu Jingchun looked so bad, Xiaoman also started asking.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?
"Aren't you going to see Mr. Luo?"
"Did Mr. Luo bully you?"
Gu Jingchun shook his head.
"He didn't."
"Now is not the time to talk about this."
Gu Jingchun's tone was serious.
"Xiao Man, go and immediately count all our people and shops in Tiandu.
Then, get rid of them as quickly as possible, and we must leave Tiandu as quickly as possible."
"Leave Tiandu!"
Xiaoman and Lanxin exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
"Why?"
"Didn't we just return to Tiandu?"
"We've just established ourselves, and many of our businesses haven't even started to generate revenue yet. If we close them now, we'll definitely suffer a huge loss."
Gu Jingchun nodded to show that he understood.
"Then leave too."
At this time, don’t worry about money. The most important thing is to save your life.
However, after leaving, she still had a score to settle with Gu Yunjin.
At this time, in the yard on the other side.
Gu Yunjin was pacing back and forth in the room anxiously.
"No news yet?"
"What on earth is going on? Why is someone suddenly taken away by the prince?"
"This...I don't know either."
Bai Lu knelt on the ground, her voice trembling with fear.
"The prince happened to be passing by that day and went over when he heard the noise."
Gu Yunjin was almost angry to death.
She lost both her banknotes and her life, intending to teach Gu Jingchun a lesson, but she didn't expect that not only was she not hurt at all, but she was also taken away by Shen Hechuan.
Thinking of the rumors about Shen Hechuan interrogating his servants, Gu Yunjin felt vaguely uneasy.
"Is your mouth sealed tightly?"
Bai Lu nodded.
However, the people around the prince are all masters of torture, and they are just ordinary killers, and it is unknown whether they can withstand it.
However, although Gu Yunjin was a little anxious, she was not too worried that Shen Hechuan would really do anything to her.
After all, the prince is very busy, and even if he captures these people, he may not really care about it.
Besides, what if he confessed that it was her?
She and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have been friends for many years.
Could it be that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would punish her because of Gu Jingchun?
But what Gu Yunjin didn't know was.
In the dungeon at this time.
Chen Hechuan was staring at the men in black with a fierce look in his eyes.
At this time, all their limbs were tied up and their bodies were beaten to pieces.
But there was no sign of stopping their punishment.
"Don't...don't hit me anymore. I'll...confess everything."
The leader spoke slowly.
But the executioner did not stop at all and continued to whip the man hard.
This whip is specially made, covered with spikes and hooks, and every hit will cause the skin to burst.
The other few people also cried out in pain for mercy.
When the torturer saw that it was almost over, he looked at Chen Hechuan.
But Chen Hechuan seemed unable to hear what the other person was saying.
He picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea casually, and waved to the other side.
Suddenly, the red-hot Luo Tie fell on the opponent.
But this is not the end.
Immediately afterwards, a red-hot iron hook quickly appeared in front of him and slowly pierced into his body.
"ah……"
Suddenly, screams rang out in the dungeon.
After everyone fainted, someone brought a bucket of salt water and poured it on everyone.
The intense pain woke the fainted people up again, but what awaited them was a new round of punishment.
In this way, several hours passed as several people went through all the punishments.
A few people could no longer hold on and kept repeating a few words in their mouths for a few minutes.
"I... admit it. I admit... everything."
"I'm just... a nobody. A woman contacted me and gave me eight hundred... taels of silver, saying she wanted to buy the life of the newly found daughter of the Yong'an Marquisate."
"I don't know that woman."
"But we secretly... followed her and saw that she finally... returned to Yong'an Marquis Mansion. So, we... guessed that she might be from Yong'an Marquis Mansion."
"I'm telling the truth... Please... give me a quick death!"
After hearing a satisfactory answer, Shen Hechuan finally stood up and waved his hand, making a benevolent gesture.
"Let's repeat the punishment just now!"
Those who want to kill him don’t even consider whether they have the ability to do so.
******
In the past few days, all the servants of Yong'an Marquis have been busy.
Because of Gu Jingchun and Gu Yunjin's marriage, Chu Qianlan was released by Gu Weiang.
Chu Qianlan was frightened and fell seriously ill. Although he has recovered a lot now, he is still weak.
Therefore, when it came to some things that required going out to purchase, Chu Qianlan asked Gu Yunjin to do it.
In the past few days, the palace also sent betrothal gifts.
Chu Qianlan took a look and his face suddenly darkened.
Let’s take a look at the Luo family’s betrothal gift.
This made Chu Qianlan feel even more sorry for Gu Yunjin.
Therefore, Chu Qianlan thought about preparing more dowry for Gu Yunjin.
After all, she was marrying a prince, so even if her dowry was larger than Gu Jingchun's, it was understandable.
Therefore, Chu Qianlan was particularly busy, so she asked Gu Yunjin to go to Wanxiu Pavilion to check the progress of the wedding dress for Gu Jingchun.
Normally, when a woman gets married, the wedding dress should be embroidered by the bride herself.
