Hu Feng searched the bottom of the pond, but there was nothing aside from the two loops of hemp rope.

They were happy that they didnt find anyone. It seemed that she was still alive.

Bai Dabao also breathed a sigh of relief, but before he was relieved, Hu Feng dragged his body down the pond.

Hu Feng pressed his head and his body into the cold water of the pond. Before he suffocates to death, he pulled his head up and pressed his head again. After experiencing it many times, Bai Dabao passed out completely

Dongfang Mu stared at Bai Dabao, who was lying unconscious, and said to the entourage behind him: Send him and that Bai Dazhu to the Yamen.

When Mrs. Liu woke up, her husband and eldest son were gone, but Bai Xiaofeng stood by her side, frowning, and looking at her gloomily.

Mrs. Liu immediately sat up from the cold floor, grabbed Bai Xiaofengs hand, and asked: Where is your father? Where is your elder brother?

Bai Xiaofeng frowned and asked: What sin did father and big brother commit? Why did they chopped off one of his arms, tortured him almost to death, and in the end locked him in the Yamen? What exactly is going on? Bai Xiaofeng has been studying in his room these days. He doesnt know whats happening in the family, so he couldnt figure out what was going on. So what happened in the end?

Mrs. Liu was too anxious to speak. But she thought it would be useless to tell Bai Xiaofeng this matter. In the end, she didnt say anything, she got up and rushed outside.

Bai Xiaofeng went after her: Where are you going?

Mrs. Liu didnt respond to him and hurriedly left the courtyard.

Pei Qinghan has naturally received the news of such a big incident in the other courtyard. He was planning to send someone to bring Mrs. Liu for questioning, but Mrs. Liu sent herself to his door.

As soon as Mrs. Liu entered the Lan Courtyard, she immediately knelt in front of Bai Zhenzhu, crying in tears and pulling her skirt while begging constantly.

Zhenzhu, you cant let this matter go on. After all, Dazhu and Dabao only listen to your instructions. They are now imprisoned in the yamen. Once they are tortured, they might mention you. You must save them, otherwise, you wont be able to get out of this.

Bai Zhenzhu shivered in anger. Those two idiots, they couldnt do a good job, but they will drag her into the dirty water.

Although she was now the daughter of Changyuan Houfu, how can she save people from the Yamen? Now, she can only protect herself by clearing her relationship with them.

Bai Zhenzhu said: I cant save them. However, I can guarantee that you and Xiaofeng will live a carefree life in the future. You also know that if something bad happens to me, you and Xiaofeng will also follow the same bad luck. Im afraid it will not be an ordinary misfortune, but the crime of beheading and killing family members. You should think clearly what to do next.

Mrs. Liu hadnt thought of these before, but now that Bai Zhenzhu had mentioned it, she immediately understood.

Bai Zhenzhu was right. If she was confessed by Bai Dazhu and Bai Dabao, all of them would be unlucky. Its a trivial thing to pretend to be the fiance of Prince Jin. But isnt it the same as the crime of deceiving a prince?

If this matter has been exposed, she and Bai Xiaofengs head would be lost.

Mrs. Liu asked with a trembling voice: Then I, what should I do?

Bai Zhenzhu replied: You think about it yourself, either die together or take care of yourself.

Mrs. Liu was very confused and cant understand anything: I know Dazhu and Dabaos temperament. They will confess before getting tortured. If the interrogation has already started, Im afraid that they had confessed already. How can we take of ourselves?
