Wen Yi stopped crying, she looked around. How shocked and panicked he was when he saw a group of tall burly men staring at him. Again negative thoughts appeared in the mind of the woman.
"What should I do? How could I fall into a place full of these jerks? What if they attack me simultaneously? I'm scared!" wen Yi's.
"Hey little girl, are you okay?" ask Ti San who just got there.
Wen Yi looked at Ti San, the man had an innocent handsome face. Seeing Ti San's face made Wen Yi feel a little safe. The woman replied, "I'm afraid...!"
"Dissolve all of you! This little girl is scared because of you ugly-faced guys!" ti San said with a joke.
"San, aren't you the same?" answer Ti Er.
"How can I be equated with you? I'm just a weak man who's hurt right now. Not like you guys who have bandit faces! Your face has frightened this girl!" canda Ti San again.
Now that the gazes of all the men's eyes were centered on Ti San, the man became nervous at the sharp gaze of his comrade. A moment later, Ti Yi shouted, "Groan!"
They all beat Ti San's back together.
"Pffit... Haha....!"
Wen Yi's laughter made the men stop beating Ti San, their gazes turned towards the woman who was laughing loosely with an innocent and charming face. Being stared at like that made Wen Yi stop laughing, she picked up the blanket that was on the bed then covered her face.
"Yes, what are you doing with this little girl?" ask one of his colleagues.
"You're not bullying this girl, are you?" ask another colleague.
"I didn't expect Yi to like young leaves" another colleague joked.
"But... Isn't it still a very bright day to do that?"
"Yes, you're really impatient!"
"Little sister, did this man force you to come to this room?"
Ti Yi's colleagues asked questions in a row even though they still hadn't heard the answers from Ti Yi and Wen Yi.
After being satisfied to ask, all the men were silent. They were waiting for answers from the two people concerned, while the two people had absolutely no intention of answering any questions from them.
Long waiting without an answer, one of Ti Yi's colleagues ended the silence in the room by introducing himself.
"Hi little girl, my name is Ti San."
"I'm Xi Man."
"I'm Yong Yu."
"I'm Ti Er."
"I'm Ti Chi."
One by one they introduced themselves until it was Ti Yi's turn.
"My name is Ti Yi" said the man with a timid face.
After they all introduced themselves, the entire room went back into silence. Ti Yi and his comrades looked at Wen Yi in the hope that the girl would introduce herself, yet the girl was silent speechless.
"That's... Miss, what's your name?" ti San asked opening his voice.
"Wen Yi, where are you from?" ask Ti San.
"....."
Ti Yi and Wen Yi felt awkward about the sensitive question, Ti Yi's comrades did not know if Wen Yi was the slave she had redeemed from Mei Li Fang's place. Ti Yi did not want to defame Wen Yi, and Wen Yi herself did not want her past to be known by the men she had just met.
"If they knew I was from Mei Li Fang, they would definitely think of me as a cheap woman. Back then, their treatment of me was definitely not much different from the striped-nose man who frequented Mei Li Fang. What should I say about my origin? thought Wen Yi as she looked at Ti Yi's face, she hoped that the man would help to cover it up.
Ti Yi seemed to understand the meaning of Wen Yi's gaze, he helped the girl to avoid Ti San's question.
"San, why are you so scared today? Come out all of you! You are very disruptive to Wen Yi's rest" Yi said as she pushed the burly bodies of her comrades towards the exit.
"Brakkk!"
The door was closed by Ti Yi, he locked the door from the inside.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Lu Ching Cheng was confined within a dimly lit room that had iron bars. King Wei went in there to find out who the plotters of the man were.
Lu Ching Cheng sat on the floor with his legs and hands tied in chains, while King Wei sat on a chair that had just been taken by one of the guards. King Wei asked Lu Ching Cheng, "Who was the one who told you to kill my wife?"
"...."
Lu Ching Cheng silently did not reply. King Wei again asked the same question, but the man remained silent.
"Heh... Looks like you need to be taught some manners huh!" said the smiling King Wei.
The guard soldiers who had already understood the meaning of King Wei's words immediately tied Lu Ching Cheng to a wooden pole. The guard also prepared torture devices often used by King Wei.
"I will ask you one last time, who gave the order to kill my wife?" said King Wei while taking a long iron that was in a pile of embers.
"Ma... What do you want? What are you gonna do to me?" lu Ching Cheng asked with a panicked face.
"I didn't ask you to ask!" said King Wei who directly buried the iron tip into the skin of Lu Ching Cheng's shoulder.
"Aaaaakkkhhh!"
The sound of Lu Ching Cheng's scream filled the entire silent prison room.
"I... I'll say it! Please stop! Please stop this!" lu Ching Cheng said with shouting and crying in pain.
King Wei pulled the long iron he had buried from the man's body, he then looked at Lu Ching Cheng's face with a cold gaze.
"Yeah... John, that man... He gave the order to kill the Empress. I was just threatened to do it, I was completely unintentional. Please let me go!!" lu Ching Cheng said with a face of pity.
King Wei looked at Lu Ching Cheng who was trembling withstanding the pain and fear. "Is that person really the mastermind?" thought King Wei. "Lu Ching Cheng might have lied to protect the real culprit."
King Wei threw away the iron he was holding, he then walked out after giving orders to the soldiers standing guard.
"Don't give him food, just give him as much water as he needs to survive!"
