He wasn't much better off with Begonia.
She was treated as a comrade of her master, as well as a member of a gang. Being kind and ignorant, yet also full of righteousness, the commoners kept cursing and scolding her.
Her master, a person of such illustrious status and glory, had now become a prisoner.
Kong Chen stared at the pair of boots, his eyes overflowing with emotions.
Upon closer inspection of the boots, there were also flying dragons embroidered with golden threads circling around the edges. It symbolized the supreme authority, and did not allow anyone to provoke it.
To be able to openly use bright yellow color and her boots even had a dragon design embroidered on them, she didn't need to raise her head to know the identity of the person who had just arrived.
The Begonia looked up and was so frightened that she bowed her head.
She was, after all, a girl who had stayed in the palace before. Those who knew that she had come could squash them as easily as squishing an ant.
"You guys can leave first!"
Kong Chen and Begonia were locked up on their own side. Other than their own cell, the other two sides of the cell were all temporarily empty.
Qian Yeli was satisfied with the arrangement of the people below. He did not want anyone to overhear or know the following interrogation.
"Long time no see!"
When he spoke, there was less malice in his tone. His tone was as if he had seen an old friend that he had not left for a long time.
Kong Chen slowly raised her head. He knew that at this point, if she still wanted to avoid it and deny it, it would be useless.
Since the other party had already seen through her identity, if she continued to play the fool pitifully, it would only make her even more ridiculous!
"Indeed, long time no see, Your Majesty."
It was not a humble tone, nor was it a snobbish attempt to curry favor with him.
In terms of seniority, she was still the current emperor's elder.
She was his former concubine, his biological mother, and the concubine who served the late emperor in the imperial harem.
"Should I address you as Master Kong Chen now, or call you Empress Dowager Zhen?" When Qian Yeli first obtained the exact information, she was also shocked.
The Esteemed Empress Dowager, who had such a glorious sight, was actually willing to become an old Daoist, guarding the Ancient Scar of the Pure Buddha every day, and meditating every day.
"No wonder we sent people to search for you back then, but they couldn't find you at all. To think that you had shaven your hair and went out of your home, taking the opportunity to hide in the White Horse Temple, where you disappeared halfway through your journey to burn incense and worship Buddha, and even found the safest place. You hid in the White Horse Temple, probably not a single person could think of that."
Kong Chen smiled indifferently, he did not judge his actions.
"Your majesty, there are no outsiders here, so be frank and frank. I left the palace to burn incense and buddha in the White Horse Temple and was attacked midway. The person who wanted to kill me was your majesty, right?"
This was not an inquiry, but a confirmation.
Hiding within the White Horse Temple, she went through the entire process once more and then thought of the mastermind.
The only person who dared to touch an exalted empress dowager like her was the proud son of heaven before her.
She no longer called herself 'This Dowager', and the current empress dowager was Empress Dowager Xi.
The current Floating Cloud Nation was the world of this mother and son pair.
"You seem to know too much! But this is good too. Hand it over! As long as you are willing to hand it over, I might consider sparing your life. Also, I can let go of that little girl who followed you. "
As long as the other party was not stupid, they would not reject his suggestion.
Compared to other indistinct objects, one's life was still the most important.
If he lost his old life, then everything would be in vain.
"What, what is that? The Emperor said it, I don't understand." Kong Chen was at a loss.
Qian Ye Li was so angry that she wanted to kill someone. If she didn't care about the existence of that thing, it would threaten his current throne. From his point of view, he didn't want to endure any longer.
In the face of such a threat, Kong Chen's face was actually filled with ridicule.
"Since the emperor is so confident, why should he fear an old woman like me? Why should he cling to that thing and not let it go?"
The existence of that item was indeed the greatest shake to the current Emperor's position and power. This was why the new emperor, who had only ascended the throne less than a year ago, was so anxious. Not only did he send out assassins to assassinate her and kill her, he even wanted to find that thing and destroy all the evidence.
She was not stupid. If she were to hand over that thing, then all the pain and humiliation she had gone through would be for nothing.
The thing she once held in her hand was the most powerful weapon. If they could not find it, they would not be able to obtain eternal peace for a day.
She just wanted them to be in a state of panic. She wanted them to be on tenterhooks all the time.
"You … "Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you're so stubborn!"
Qian Yelei was flustered and exasperated as she shouted towards the outside of the prison, "Someone come!"
The eunuch who accompanied them immediately pushed open the door and rushed in while trembling in fear.
"Take these two men to the torture chamber! Since their mouths are so hard, then we might as well punish them. Let's see whether their bones are harder or the marble temple's torture instruments are harder! "
The marble temple had a special torture chamber, which was filled with all sorts of torture instruments.
Kong Chen and the Begonia were brought to the torture chamber. The Begonia's heart trembled at the sight of the shocking torture instruments.
Qian Ye Li sat down in the only chair in the torture chamber with a cold expression.
He had always wanted results, and he didn't mind killing a little more decisively when it came to the process.
The father-in-law who had followed them here acted as the executioner at the last moment.
"I'm giving you one last chance to explain, are you going to accept it?"
The eunuch first used a pair of pincers to pick up a red-hot metal piece from the brazier. He then deliberately swung it around in front of Kong Chen and the crabapple.
The red-hot iron block brought with it a scorching heat. It was a terrifying sight to behold.
Kong Chen's face did not change, "If you want to take action, then do it, why are you blabbering so much, you really don't look like a man!"
This insult had undoubtedly pierced this eunuch's sore spot.
As a man, this was the deepest pain in his heart. It was a pain that he would never be able to recover from in his lifetime. It was an unforgettable pain.
The most important organ in their body had already been mercilessly cut off. In this lifetime, they wouldn't be able to think of becoming a healthy man again.
"Good, you want to try the power of this piece of metal? I'll help you!"
The eunuch, who had always been treated with respect in the palace, was so angry that he directly grabbed a piece of red metal and pressed it against the old Daoist nun's chest.
With a "chi chi" sound, the Daoist Robe on Kong Chen's chest was quickly scalded until it was charred into a large hole.
The room was instantly filled with the smell of burnt flesh.
However, the burnt smell right now was only the smell of his clothes being burnt.
The piece of iron that was used to burn the Sutra was not put down. The eunuch was overjoyed. His hands showed no mercy and the iron was burned once again.
This time, it was the smell of burning flesh. An 'Ah!' came from the torture chamber, and an unbearable pain came from Kong Chen's mouth.
No matter how strong she could be, she was still just flesh and blood.
The living flesh and blood that came into contact with the red-hot metal naturally could not remain intact.
"Master, master!"
The Begonia was tied to a wooden pillar at the side. She was watching her master being cruelly punished, so she shouted crazily.
"If you want to punish me, then punish me. I have a thick skin, and my life is a cheap life."
Her shouts and interruptions had no doubt annoyed the eunuchs.
Thus, the target of the punishment was the Begonia.
"You want to taste the iron, too, don't you?"
Seeing such a delicate and young body, the eunuch was even more excited.
"However, your little face is really pretty. If this small face of yours had a hole burned through it, wouldn't it be equivalent to having your face destroyed by some random family? If you are to be alive and leave marble temple in the future, when people see you in the outside world, won't they treat you like a monster? What a pity!"
The red metal block was even purposely making a face at the transvestite.
The scorching aura seemed to have scalded Begonia's face.
"Don't burn my face, don't burn my face …"
The eunuchs did not seem to hear her pleas as they continued to make gestures. In this moment of coercion, it was precisely because they could not withstand such perverted punishment that many of the less resolute criminals were willing to confess.
What they wanted was nothing more than to give them a bit of deterrence, because they could voluntarily confess so that they could obtain more useful information and get what they wanted back.
"Admit it, your master didn't say it, but you, little girl, can also explain things. If you are willing to be honest, then I can plead with the emperor and let you live. Can't you see the situation right now?" What hope would you have of following your former master? If I were to leave her earlier, I would be able to free myself. "
She was treated as a comrade of her master, as well as a member of a gang. Being kind and ignorant, yet also full of righteousness, the commoners kept cursing and scolding her.
Her master, a person of such illustrious status and glory, had now become a prisoner.
Kong Chen stared at the pair of boots, his eyes overflowing with emotions.
