C48

The iron cage was made from intersected iron rods as thick as a finger. It was one meter long, sixty to seventy centimeters wide, and sixty to seventy centimeters high. One could not sit, stand, or lie down, but could only curl up.

Yi Xiaoqiao curled himself up into a caterpillar, with his neck straightened, looking down on Mui'an from the corner of his eyes.

What kind of hero would bully a woman like her!

Looking from left to right, Chen Congzhou and Zhang XV were in a much more miserable state than her. They were both well-built men, and the meat they put in here was squeezed out from the gaps, like a fat meatball forcibly stuffed into a small bamboo tube.

Yi Xiaoqiao had been lying inside for less than a quarter of an hour when her body began to hurt, mainly because she was in a panic. After all, there were metal rods everywhere, and her body was thin and weak to begin with.

She turned her body over with great difficulty and sucked in a breath of cold air.

Cui Li frequently turned his head to look at her, wanting to comfort her, but he didn't dare to say anything. He understood Muyi, Muyi was a stone-hearted person, no matter what you say, he seemed to be unable to hear you. As long as he understood his reasoning, he wouldn't care about you at all, and the more sympathetic you were, the more he would punish you.

Thinking about how Muyi had just begged for mercy for Yi Xiaoqiao, but Muyi actually told her to shut the steel cage. If he begged for mercy again, then wouldn't that mean he would kill Yi Xiaoqiao?

Cui Chen fiercely gritted his teeth, holding back the words that were about to come out of his heart. He resentfully glared at Zhang XV: "Didn't you say she was Muyi An's bait? Is there anyone who treats their own people like this? "

Right, was there anyone who treated their own people like this? She was his nominal wife, after all. The emperor had bestowed the marriage, but Mu Yi'an actually punished her like this! This was too much!

Yi Xiaoqiao and Cui Chen shared a common enemy.

Cui Huang looked at her sympathetically and pursed his lips without saying a word. In the Qiangguo Country, only traitors would shut down their iron cages to roam the streets to denounce others. If Yi Xiaoqiao entered the city like this, her reputation would be terrible.

As he was thinking, he looked up and saw that Muyi wasn't entering the city, but was at the intersection in front of him. He was walking directly towards the outskirts of the city.

Cui Shiming's heart was alarmed, his face turning unsightly.

If a man became a traitor, then at most he would be beheaded, but a woman was different. If a woman became a traitor, then she would be used mostly as a military courtesan for the soldiers to play with, and the men in the army camp would not get to have women for a long time, and they would not be able to do much with women.

"Mu Yi An, Mu Yi An …" Cui Chen shouted. He did not want to see Yi Xiaoqiao being insulted.

"What are you shouting for, it's just your voice that's loud!" "Take her to the general's camp. No one is to come near without his orders."

He pointed at Chen Congzhou and Zhang XV, "When those two were thrown into the river, it was better to reflect on the situation. When they were pulled out again, it would be better to reflect on the situation and drown in the river."

Cui Chen saw that Yi Xiaoqiao was covered up. His heart felt relieved, but was immediately tightened by his words. He sent her to Muyi's tent? Why?

Mu Yi An was very familiar with her?

Cui Shimeng wasn't in a good mood as he recalled Yi Xiaoqiao saying that Muyi was right. He thought to himself, could it be that Yi Xiaoqiao is really Muyi's bait?

But why would Muyi treat Yi Qiao like this? Didn't he know what damage the cage would do to Yi Xiaoqiao? After a long time, Yi Xiaoqiao might never be able to stand up again.

Countless thoughts flashed through Cui Chen's mind. He whispered, "What do you guys think is the relationship between Muyi and Yi Xiaoqiao?"

"Of course, it's bait!" From beginning to end, Zhang Wu had never changed his mind. He gave a cold snort and said, "This is called a trick of the hand."

Cui Chen laughed silently. Who would use such a trick? If Mu Yi An used a woman to trick them, then Mu Yi An would be too shameless.

"Chen Congzhou, what do you think?"

"I heard that Muyi is looking for someone. It seems to be a woman."

"You mean he's looking for Joe?"

"Someone said it was his wife."

What?

Cui Ming's eyes flashed, this thought seemed to overlap with the one in his heart. For a moment, he felt his heart break, that Wangfu's daughter-in-law seemed to be leaving him.

Hiding in the darkness, Yi Xiaoqiao heard the sound of a cacophony approaching. Then he heard the sound again, as if someone had closed the door.

She looked at the wooden bed beneath her. She knew that she had arrived, but no one had let her out. She was still lying there, enduring the inhuman torture.

Her back was hurting and she could smell the scent of blood.

Yi Xiaoqiao waited and waited, she waited and waited, she lived like a year, every minute and every second was torture.

At first, she didn't feel anything special about this cage, but after being stuck inside for so long, she finally understood the 'wonderful' use of this cage.

Not only was she suffering from the pain, the most important thing was that all the joints in her body were folded. This was equivalent to her blocking all the blood in your body. As time passed, her knees would hurt, her ankles would hurt, and her entire body would ache.

She was just curled up here and feeling sore all over her body. She didn't know how they were going to get through the water, but this Mu Yi was really dark.

"Scolding me again?" Following this voice, the cloak was lifted.

The sun came in.

Yi Xiaoqiao subconsciously closed his eyes, avoiding the sunlight.

She blinked several times and slowly opened her eyes as she got used to the sunlight. The first thing she saw was a pair of phoenix eyes.

He squatted on the ground and stroked his chin with his fingertips, looking at her with a smile that was not a smile. His eyebrows were curved, his lips were raised, and he looked like he was watching a good show, just that he had no intention of letting her out.

"Have you seen enough? Let me out!" Yi Xiaoqiao was about to go crazy from the torture, but Muyi was still watching a good show. How could this person be like this? He was really unlucky.

"Yi Xiaoqiao?"

Yi Xiaoqiao glared at him.

Mu Yi'an reached his hand in and gently stroked the strands of hair on her face. "Your way of doing things is pretty good. It's quite unique."

Yi Xiaoqiao's face turned cold as he shook his head, refusing to look at him.

"He should be locked up for a while due to his temper."

Yi Xiaoqiao glared at him again.

"Why are you staring at me? Do you know your wrongs?" How could this girl be so stupid? She only needed to beg him and he would definitely let her go, but looking at her idiotic appearance, she would only have a bad temper.

Mu Yi'an turned around and leaned against the cage as he flipped through the military books. He completely treated Yi Xiaoqiao as air and thought that there was no such person.

Yi Xiaoxiao couldn't take it anymore, so she carefully reached out a finger to poke his waist.

"What for?"

Poof, poof, poof.

"What for?"

Poof, poof, poof.

"Speak." Don't ask him to let you out until you admit it.

Stamp Stamp

"Yi Xiaoqiao!"

Mu Yi An impatiently turned around and stared down at her.

Stamp...

Yi Xiaoqiao was stunned, while Muyi was frozen.

Yi Xiaoqiao carefully swept a glance at his face that was covered in dark clouds. Trembling, he retracted his hand and tried to cover it up. "I didn't touch anything …"

Nothing, nothing...

Veins popped out on Mu Yi'an's forehead. After staring blankly for two seconds, he suddenly turned around and left in large strides, disappearing into the tent like a gust of wind.

"Mu Yi'an, I was wrong. I won't poke you anymore. Let me out."

"Muyi …"

Mu Yi An left resolutely without turning back.

Yi Xiaoqiao lay powerlessly in the cage, patting his fingers and said, "You said, no matter where you poke, why …"

Yi Xiaoqiao covered his face, feeling so depressed that he wanted to hit the wall.

"Then again, shouldn't that place be responsive? "Why not, is he really incapable?"

Thinking of this, Yi Xiaoqiao covered his face, feeling sympathy for Muyi.

After who knows how long had passed, a strange sound suddenly came from his side.

"Hiss — Joe?"

She slowly opened her eyes and saw Cui Huang standing in front of the cage, looking at her with a smile. Hope rose in her eyes: "Why are you here? You're not locked up? "

"I snuck out while they were changing shifts." Cui Chen smiled.

"It's great to see you. Cui Chen, hurry and save me. I can't take it anymore, it hurts so bad!" Yi Xiaoqiao wanted to cry. If she knew that Muyi would not return, she would have admitted her wrongs earlier.

"Don't worry, I'll save you right now." Cui Chen took out an iron wire from his bosom and began to unlock it.

"Cui Huang, thank you …" Yi Xiaoqiao was both moved and pained as her vision turned hazy.

"What are you thanking me for? I promised to protect you, did you forget?"

"Tsk tsk, your relationship seems to be pretty good." A teasing voice appeared in the tent.

"It's not bad, we are …" Yi Xiaoqiao slowly raised her gaze and met with someone's cold phoenix eyes. She could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and said with certainty, "We will meet by chance."

"Since you care so much about Yi Xiaoqiao, why don't you trade it with her instead? She didn't take it, so you helped her out, what do you think?"

"Mu Yi An, don't involve the innocent!"

Mu Yi'an glanced at her coldly: "Yi Xiaoqiao, are you pleading for mercy on behalf of another man?"

Yi Xiaoqiao's heart skipped a beat. She suddenly had the illusion that someone had caught her red-flower apricot. She pursed her lips. "But Cui Chen is innocent."

"Bandits, what's there to be innocent about!"

"You …"

"Fine, I'll do it for her, but you have to promise that you won't make things difficult for her again."

"You should worry about yourself first. If you can't even care about yourself, do you still have the time to care about her?" Mu Yi An waved his hand, and a few people dragged Cui Chen away.

"Cui Stage..." "Mu Yi An, you're too much!"

Mu Yi'an gritted his teeth, "Yi Xiaoqiao, if you beg again, I'll kill him."
