Chapter 251
Concubine Liu suddenly asked such a question, and with Concubine Xi and Gu Zhaoyi at the side, Yun Lanyue chuckled lightly, pretending not to understand, and said casually, "Lanyue feels chilled when something like this happened in the palace."

"Really?" Concubine Liu raised her eyebrows, and suddenly changed the subject: "I think the Xinggong Palace is very lively at the moment, do you want the Crown Princess to go and see it with me?"

"The scene is too bloody, so I don't want to go to Lanyue. It won't affect my appetite later. If you want to go, go ahead. Lanyue will take Zhu'er to the palaces to remove the musk."

"It's not good to have so many, the queen herself wants you and me to supervise together."

"No problem, if Zhu'er wants to survive, she will definitely not hide anything, and it will not be too late for the empress to come back after reading it."

"The Crown Princess said the same, then let Concubine Xi go with the Crown Princess. I will go to the Xinggong to open my eyes first." After speaking, he walked towards the Xinggong with great interest.

Yun Lanyue looked at Concubine Liu's back, thoughtful in her heart, and then looked at Concubine Xi at the side: "Would Madam Xi be willing to accompany Lanyue to deal with the Queen's orders?"

"There's nothing wrong with the left and right, so let's go for a walk with the princess."

Gu Zhaoyi's complexion was a little pale, and Fu Fu said, "I don't know why I feel dizzy, and the concubine will not go." Saying this, he hurriedly took the maid away.

Zhu'er was pressed by the guards of the East Palace, and the guards of Fenglin Palace were watching. Naturally, she was very frightened. She asked what to say, and the matter of cleaning up the musk was going smoothly, but the harem was huge, and it would cost a little money. It's just time.

"Accompanied by Mrs. Lao Xi, otherwise there are so many places, it would be really lonely."

"Princess Concubine does not dislike it, so I am naturally willing to accompany you." Concubine Xi looked at Yun Lanyue and said, "If Concubine Liu asked at the gate of Fenglin Palace, Crown Concubine should know that she didn't mean that."

"You mean Concubine Liu?" Yun Lanyue chuckled softly: "The emperor always thought that Concubine Liu was simple and easy to coax, but in fact this Concubine Liu is a really smart person. Somewhat dissatisfied, she always thought that this time we were the ones who put Concubine Lu to death together. She never thought that the real intention of this Palace was to help you to the throne. Sooner or later, although Concubine Liu fulfilled her wish to make Lu Concubine die badly, but at the same time, she also sent a concubine who was not in the same rank as her to the concubine position, and it is normal for her to have a bad temper."

"It turns out that the Crown Princess did not tell Concubine Liu about this." Concubine Xi greeted the moon and blessed her body: "Thank you."

Yun Lanyue hastened to help her up: "What are you doing, Mrs. Xi, I also have my intention to support you, and you know this, you and Concubine Liu are both smart people, but I am more willing to believe in you .”

Concubine Xi also knew the meaning of Yun Lanyue's words in her heart. Concubine Liu had no children, so she was only thinking about herself, and she also had Princess Mingyuan. Naturally, she kept her kindness in mind, and she should trust her more. To put it bluntly, she was easier to control than Concubine Liu.

Today's incident, on the surface, it seems that the queen is in control of the overall situation, but in fact it is the young princess next to her who is in control of the whole situation. I am afraid that even the queen has not reacted. The steps she has taken these days, in fact All were completed under Yun Lanyue's orders.

"What is Xipin thinking?"

Concubine Xi came back to her senses and sighed: "Actually, it's nothing, I just thought of Concubine Lu, how beautiful and noble she was before, she has always had a place in the harem, but because of the emperor's words, she was accepted. With the death penalty like combing, I can't help but feel that the emperor is too cruel."

"If the emperor is not ruthless, how can he control the thousands of miles of land in his own hands? Hasn't Madam Xi not figured this out after all these years? As for Concubine Lu, it can only be said that she is to blame for it."

Combing punishment, one of the top ten capital punishments in the harem, is usually used to deal with women who have committed serious crimes in the harem. The so-called combing punishment is actually an extremely inhuman punishment.

The tortured person must first be poured with a large amount of wine to numb the body, and then soak a cup of tea in boiling hot water so that the grooming can go smoothly.

Hot water is unbearable for ordinary people, but people who have been poured with alcohol will have a very slow body perception, at most they will thump a few times, and they will not yell. For mild burns, the skin will break when pinched, so combing can be executed.

The tortured person will be tightly tied to a special bench. At this time, the tortured person is actually a little conscious, and the pain of being burned will become more and more obvious. Of course, this kind of pain is not as good as combing torture. One in ten thousand.

As the name suggests, it is to use a comb to carry out executions, but this kind of comb is also unique, about half the length of an arm, fixed with special sharp nails, and the rows of nails that shine coldly will be dripping with blood when combed on the human body. This is not enough, the combing punishment is not just combing it like this to finish the job, but to comb the flesh of the tortured person until only half of the skeleton is left. This kind of pain is truly inhuman.

When Yun Lanyue and Xipin were in the other palace, they suddenly heard a shrill scream, and they knew that the grooming had already begun.

This scream is horrifying to hear, what kind of person is still watching the execution in the palace at this moment?

Not to mention, there are quite a lot of people watching the execution in the Xing Palace at this time. Concubine Qiu came early and asked someone to move a chair to sit not far away. From here, she can see the whole process of the execution. I could clearly see that Concubine Qing was also sitting beside her. Although her face was slightly pale, she did not dare to leave without permission. There were also a few beauties of Zhaoyi standing behind the two of them, who dared to open their eyes to see Those who were timid closed their eyes, and those who were weak in endurance had already vomited from the sidelines.

Concubine Qiu frowned, and she was scolded to go away, these concubines were relieved, and seemed to be fleeing away, when they reached the door, they happened to bump into Concubine Liu.

The concubines blessed Concubine Liu one after another, and left quickly. Concubine Liu sneered, and strode in, just combed again. Lu Shuhua is gone.

"The imperial concubine is also here."

Concubine Qiu turned her head to look at Concubine Liu, and said indifferently, "Concubine Liu can be here, so why can't I be here?"

"Of course not. It's just that the concubine came to see off Lu Shuhua, for fear of disturbing the interest of the empress."

"Concubine Liu please feel free to do whatever she wants, I just pretend I didn't see it, and the same goes for them."

"In that case, the concubine would like to thank the empress." Concubine Liu paced forward as she spoke, intending to carry out the execution herself.
