C109 Torture

"Ministry of Justice are all people of Great General's Mansion, do you have a way to interfere?"

"If I could interfere, why would I bother speaking such nonsense to the prince?" Shi Yanfei worriedly continued, "I was afraid that they would find out the identity of the Miss Yue, and at that time, I would give the Duke a crime of colluding with the remaining members of Moon Kingdom."

After Moon Kingdom's death, there had always been trouble from the old clan. These old clans were suppressed by Great General's Mansion's people, and in these two years, most of them had been annihilated already.

Yi Shuihan had been accumulating energy and energy all these years, but no one actually knew of his existence.

If they caught him, it would definitely cause a huge uproar, and once Yue Lanyi's identity was found out, he would be implicated. He was not afraid of anything else, but was afraid that the Great General's Mansion would seize this opportunity to force Xiao Feimo to hand over the military power in his hands.

Only then did Shi Yanfei come to find Xiao Feimo to discuss the countermeasures. Unexpectedly, Xiao Feimo wasn't anxious at all.

"Yi Shuihan will not reveal Lan Yi."

In this regard, Xiao Feimo was very sure that Yi Shuihan was not someone who was afraid of death.

"Yang Heng has already been appointed as Ministry of Justice Assistant Minister for a period of time, and the Ministry of Justice is completely within his control. Can Yi Shuihan endure the torture from the Ministry of Justice?" Shi Yanfei became suspicious, "Previously Miss Yue was not tortured, but now there is another Yi Shuihan. This crime is also different, if they were to punish Miss Yue, she, a weak girl, might not even be able to hold on."

"They don't dare to sentence Lanyi without evidence."

"My lord, I just remembered something, I don't know if I should say it."

Speaking of Yue Lanyi, Yi Shuihan suddenly remembered something.

"What is it?"

Once, after you and Princess Hua-Yang went to the Quanzhou, I saw Miss Yue and Yang Xue secretly interacting. The two of them seemed to be very familiar with each other, and I originally wanted to wait for you to come back and tell you.

Xiao Feimo's face still did not reveal whether he was happy or angry. He did not say anything, but mentioned something else, "Yan Fei, in a while, come with this king to the dungeon."

"That's fine too, let's go and see what's going on with the Ministry of Justice. If you go, they won't dare to go overboard on the surface."

Shi Yanfei nodded and agreed.

profound prison of Ministry of Justice

Yi Shuihan wore white prison clothes that were tied to the rack. The prison clothes were stained with blood, and were full of whip marks.

After the torture, Yi Shuihan was only left with half a life. With his head lowered, bright red blood flowed down the corner of his mouth.

Yang An and Yang Heng were both by his side. Yang Heng was expressionless, but Yang An looked serious and asked with a straight face, "Yi Shuihan, what does Yue Lanyi have to do with you?"

Yi Shuihan did not have any strength on his body, and when he looked up, his eyes were filled with hatred, "I do not know any Yue Lanyi, if he falls into your hands, if you want to kill him or not, I will cut him to pieces."

"If you don't know Yue Lanyi, you should still go straight to his prison entrance. Yi Shuihan, if you admit defeat, you should at least suffer a bit more, otherwise …" A flash of ruthlessness flashed past Yang An's eyes.

Yi Shuihan did not take Yang An's threat seriously, his tone was still unyielding, "If you don't know, then you don't know."

"You're still so stubborn even when you're about to die. Let's see whether your bones or my whip is stronger." Yang An took the whip in the jailer's hands and used it to whip Yi Shuihan. The white prison robe was ripped in several places and fresh blood leaked out of the wound, causing Yi Shuihan to clench his teeth and not make a sound.

Seeing that Yi Shuihan was so stubborn, Yang An ordered with a darkened face, "Bring salt water."

The jailer walked over quickly with a bucket of salt water and splashed it on Yi Shuihan's body mercilessly.

"Ah …" When the salt water touched the wound, Yi Shuihan let out a painful howl, but in the end, he couldn't hold on and fainted.

Yang An was preparing to hit Yi Shuihan again, but Yang Heng stopped him, "Big bro, Yi Shuihan is a tough nut to crack, I'm afraid torture is useless against him."

"The Emperor and Xiao Feimo have always protected Yue Lanyi, and we cannot punish him openly. If he does not confess, this matter will not be easy to deal with."

Yang An had toiled so hard to torture Yi Shuihan. Other than forcing him to confess, there were also a few private grudges hidden within, but of course, only he himself knew of these.

"Second Brother, I have an idea."

"What is Big Bro's plan?"

Yang An whispered into Yang Heng's ear, Yang Heng nodded his head, "Alright, we will do as your big brother says."

"Men, escort him back to the prison."

The jailer quickly dragged Yi Shuihan away and locked him up in the cell beside Yue Lanyi.

Seeing Yi Shuihan's body covered in blood being dragged back, Yue Lanyi was a little afraid. She did not know what they had done to Yi Shuihan, nor did she know if Yi Shuihan had been able to control his mouth under the torture.

Yang An and Yang Heng walked over together. They walked to the front of Yue Lanyi's cell, and Yang An stared coldly at him, "Miss Yue, Yi Shuihan is indeed a tough guy, even after using so much torture, he still wasn't able to pry open his mouth. It's a pity that he has a big weakness, does Miss Yue know what that is!"

Yue Lanyi forced himself to calm down, "I don't understand what the General Yang is saying."

"With Xin Yi in my hands, with her, who do you think Yi Shuihan will choose to save?"

Yue Lanyi's face turned white, if Xin Yi really fell into Yang An's hands, then Yi Shuihan would definitely choose to protect Xin Yi, as they were husband and wife after all.

"The confession has been prepared, we are just waiting for Yi Shuihan to wake up. Miss Yue, you won't be able to escape this crisis."

After saying that, Yang An and Yang Heng left together. Yue Lanyi only felt weak, if not for Zhu Ling's quick reaction and support, she would have collapsed to the ground.

How could this be? She could clearly save her life, but she was destroyed by Yi Shuihan. Knowing that she couldn't be saved, she had no choice but to come and rescue Yi Shuihan.

"Miss, what should we do now?"

Zhu Ling was truly anxious, if Yue Lanyi's identity was found out, he would definitely die.

Yan Kingdom would definitely not allow a single Princess of the Moon Kingdom to live.

Yue Lanyi's face was ashen. She had truly panicked as she muttered to herself, "Yi Shuihan absolutely cannot be pawned."

"He's in the cell next door. How can we stop him?"

Yue Lanyi searched the floor of the cell, and finally found a broken porcelain piece on the floor from the straw. She picked up the broken porcelain piece and hid it inside her sleeves, with a cold glint in her eyes she walked to the railing and called, "General Yi."

There were no walls between the cells of the Ministry of Justice Prison, they were all wooden railings.

Yi Shuihan laid on the ground, motionless.

Yue Lanyi continued to call out to Yi Shuihan, and after a few times, the originally motionless Yi Shuihan finally showed signs of movement.

Yi Shuihan struggled to open his eyes. After seeing Yue Lanyi, he bore the pain and crawled in front of the railing, "Ninth Princess, it's good that you're fine."

"General Yi, where's Xin Yi?"

"She's fine."

Yue Lanyi sneered in his heart, she would definitely not give Yi Shuihan the chance to harm her.
