My husband faked his death so I could remarry, but I got involved with my crazy brother and can'

In the dark and damp prison, the heavy smell of blood filled the air. Su Yingxue huddled in a corner, her face full of fear.

Begs for mercy kept coming, and Su Yingxue's face turned deathly pale, her body trembling involuntarily.

She never imagined that she, as the Crown Prince's wife, would have this day.

That damn man doesn't even care about the slightest bit of affection between husband and wife.

They even disregarded the dignity of the Duke's mansion.

Su Yingxue became increasingly angry the more she thought about it.

She huddled in the corner, where the occasional squeaking of mice could be heard.

"Ah! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

Su Yingxue waved her hands haphazardly, looking extremely disheveled.

"Your Highness."

The cell door slowly opened, and Prince Rui looked at the woman locked in the corner, looking utterly disheveled, a wicked smile playing on his lips:

"I never imagined that a man as upright and honorable as Brother Huaiyun would marry someone as lowly as you."

Even if a noblewoman is afraid, she should not lose her composure like this.

Not to mention, she looks no different from a stray dog ​​now.

"Your Highness, I truly know I was wrong. I didn't mean to do it. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

Su Yingxue trembled all over, her face filled with fear.

She simply couldn't stand being in a place like this for even a second longer.

Prince Rui smiled faintly: "I'm not going to eat you, what are you afraid of? Anyone who didn't know better would think I was some kind of monster."

His smile deepened as he looked at the panicked little woman before him: "Actually, I originally intended to let you go, but I didn't expect Brother Huaiyun to care about you at all, so I captured you to vent my anger."

Upon hearing this, Su Yingxue's face gradually paled.

She wasn't unaware that she held no place in Xie Huaiyun's heart.

But hearing it from someone else's mouth is so heartbreaking.

She felt as if a huge stone was lodged in her heart, and she was extremely uncomfortable.

"Your Highness, no matter what, I am still the Crown Prince's Consort. You won't mistreat me, will you?"

"Treating you harshly?" Prince Rui laughed. "Don't worry, I promised Brother Huaiyun that I wouldn't mistreat you for his sake."

"You should choose one."

As soon as Prince Rui finished speaking, the jailer brought over several instruments of torture.

There are silver needles, white paper, and a basin of water.

There were no highly harmful instruments of torture.

But these are even more excruciating pains.

Su Yingxue's face grew increasingly pale. She shook her head repeatedly, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me?"

She didn't want to choose any of these; they were all forms of torture.

She was perfectly fine and had no intention of suffering.

"These silver needles will pierce your fingers one by one."

"This Xuan paper will get wet. If I put it on your face, don't worry, it won't really kill you."

"And this basin of water..." Prince Rui paused, then smiled wickedly, "Actually, it has a similar effect to Xuan paper."

"Why don't you choose, Princess Consort?"

Prince Rui approached, his icy gaze falling on Su Yingxue.

Su Yingxue was terrified, almost scared out of her wits. She looked at Prince Rui in disbelief, her voice trembling, "Please, Your Highness, I beg you..."

She tried to argue her point, but Prince Rui had already lost interest.

Prince Rui waved his hand dismissively: "Alright, men, use all these instruments of torture on her."

"Don't kill him, and he's not allowed to have any injuries."

"Three days later, send it back to the Duke's mansion."

"yes!"

Su Yingxue caught a cold after saving Princess Rui.

However, he had not seen Xie Huaiyun for several days.

The prepared medicinal meals went cold time and time again.

"Madam, you are still ill, so please don't think about the young master anymore," Xia Zhi said with heartache.

That young master is really something; his wife is ill and he doesn't even bother to come and see her.

They're so busy all day long, I don't even know what they're doing.

He didn't even have time to visit his own wife.

It's chilling.

"Yes, Madam, the young master has been very busy these past few days. You should take care of yourself and rest well. That's more important than anything else," Qiu Ye advised.

She was also very dissatisfied with Xie Huaiyun's performance.

I used to think the Crown Prince was a good man.

Now that I see it, it's not like that at all.

Where is the good man?

It's not good at all.

Su Yingxue stared blankly out the window, still unwilling to give up: "The earlier this illness is treated, the better. What if it becomes a permanent injury if we delay treatment?"

Su Yingxue was also very concerned about Xie Huaiyun's health.

After all, Xie Huaiyun may have some martial arts skills, but they weren't particularly strong.

At most, one could only say that he had some martial arts skills.

Given that he is usually busy with work, it's best to address this issue as soon as possible.

"If all else fails, you can go and deliver the items over there."

Su Yingxue waited and waited, but Xie Huaiyun was nowhere to be seen. In the end, she had no choice but to give in.

If the two maids can handle this matter, I won't have to worry about anything anymore.

"Alright, then I'll go deliver it." Qiu Ye took the food box and went out the door with a worried look on her face.

Qizhu Garden.

Rong Jing noticed Qiu Ye, suppressed his expression, and asked in a calm voice, "Why are you here?"
