He Huan had just arrived at the research institute, and was very uncomfortable with it. He followed Forsythia with a reserved look. When he heard Su Mumu's call, he was trembling with fear at first, and then he moved his steps and leaned forward carefully to ask.

"Forsythia, come here quickly."

I wanted to ask He Huan his size so that he could order someone to make a few sets of fitting clothes, but when he saw that He Huan was frightened by his voice, he had no choice but to call Forsythia to come over.

"Empress, please forgive me!"

Mistaking Su Mumu for recruiting Forsythia for torture, her legs went limp and she knelt on the spot, kowtowing until Su Mumu felt her soles tremble.

Forsythia agreed and came in. When she saw He Huan kowtowing and begging for mercy, she immediately understood the situation and hurriedly stepped forward to hold He Huan's face full of tears.

"Your Majesty, what do you have to say to Forsythia?"

Su Mumu rubbed her swollen temples as she had a headache due to He Huan's teasing.

"I just called her to ask about her measurements so that I could order her to make some clothes that would fit her. Who knew I would frighten her into looking like this?"

He Huan, who was trembling with fear and crying hard, was stunned when he heard Su Mumu's words. It turned out that he didn't want to punish himself, so he was lifted up by Forsythia and secretly asked where Forsythia was.

"Your Majesty will not let He Huan pick up barbs by holding brown sugar, right?"

Forsythia was stunned by the question, and after thinking for a long time, she didn't even understand what it meant to pick a barb with brown sugar.

“What is brown sugar, jumping barbs?”

Forsythia's voice was not like He Huan's deliberately speaking in a low tone. Su Mumu heard her normal tone clearly.

Su Mumu, who naturally couldn't understand, urged He Huanhuan to speak.

Neither the master nor the slave knew this. He Huan was so happy that he had really arrived in a paradise.

"Returning to the Queen, with brown sugar, you put the iron sand in a pot and heat it up, and then order the person who is being punished to hold all the iron sand in his mouth. Because the slaves work more than talk, and the wounds are in the mouth.

, no matter how serious the injury is, outsiders cannot see it. There is also barb picking, which is to insert a silver needle into the body of the person being punished and poke it back and forth like a thorn. However, barb picking is performed by experienced aunts.

Even if it hurts so much that it hurts, the needle will not break in the body, and there will be no injuries on the body from the outside."

Such a cruel punishment, Su Mumu's scalp went numb when she heard it, and she waved her hands and ordered He Huan to stop talking.

"Hey, it seems that most of the tragedies in this world are not caused by God, but are imposed on people. Forsythia, first go and pick out some clothes for He Huan to change, and lead her to bathe and change clothes. For the time being, you will take care of yourself.

, just come back to me as a errand in some time."

Forsythia said yes, took He Huan's hand and walked out.

"Wait a minute..."

Suddenly remembering something, Su Mumu saw He Huan calling back to her.

"Where did you learn about these criminal laws?"

He Huan was trembling when asked by Su Mumu, lowering his head and never saying a word.

"Don't be afraid. Just say it."

Forsythia tried to persuade him, but He Huan still didn't dare to talk. Su Mumu couldn't bear to push her, so she told Forsythia to take good care of her, and ordered the two of them to go down.

On the other hand, Forsythia was alert. Just as He Huan was preparing to boil the water, he tried to trick He Huan out.

After He Huan was properly arranged, Forsythia came to Su Mumu to report.

"Your Majesty, I heard He Huan mention that there are many punishments that we have never heard of. They were all things that Concubine Ru came up with when she was bored in the Jade Palace. It sounds terrifying. Please think of a way, Your Majesty.

, please save the maids and eunuchs in the Jade Palace, I heard that some of them cannot bear the torture and are bedridden and dying."

Really scratching her head, Su Mumu was embarrassed and speechless for a long time. Originally, she went to the Jade Palace to check the situation to prevent Baili Ruyue from secretly engaging in foreign affairs. Unexpectedly, the person who should have inquired did not find out, but discovered these cruel things. She had the intention to take care of it.

I am also afraid of disturbing the situation, and if I leave it alone, I will feel uneasy.

"Forsythia, now I suspect that someone in the palace has secret dealings with Nan Mulin, or in other words, Donglin. If he acted impulsively and spoiled the plan... I am really in a dilemma."

Knowing that Su Mumu always has a reason for doing things, she accompanied Su Mumu to the Jade Palace today just for a walk. Forsythia, who was still wondering why she acted like this, heard what Su Mumu said and immediately understood Su Mumu's intention and understood that everything should focus on the overall situation.

, Forsythia also kept silent.

He took out a medical book and flipped through it. The more he read, the more upset he became. As a doctor, how could he sit still when he heard that someone was dying, so he stood up from the chair. Su Mumu stepped out and walked out of the door.

"Empress, where are you going?"

Forsythia, who had always been a chivalrous person, was persuaded by Su Mumu to harden her heart and give up. Suddenly she saw Su Mumu running out the door angrily, and quickly followed her out of the house.

"Mother, where are we going?"

Su Mumu was the most fond of fighting against injustice, but the Forsythia beside her was even more prone to roaring when she saw any injustice. With the two of them together, there was no room for a tiger to show off its power.

"Go to the Emerald Palace."

The two smiled at each other and walked out of the research institute. As soon as they were on the way to the Jade Palace, they were stopped by Nan Muchen who was coming back from the imperial study.

"Where are you going, madam?"

Looking at Su Mumu's eyebrows, she could see a faint hint of anger, and Nan Muchen asked in annoyance.

Su Mumu, who had some rift with Nan Muchen, faced her coldly and ignored Nan Muchen's concerns and inquiries. She didn't intend to pay attention to Nan Muchen, but suddenly she had a plan in mind. Su Mumu broke the deadlock first and talked to Nan Muchen.

come out.

"Today, I went to the Jade Palace to visit Concubine Ru, who has been suffering from a long-term illness. I didn't want to be smelled by the stench in the Jade Palace. I just thought that the stench was like the smell emanating from the dead, so I rushed to the Jade Palace to check.

To prevent the virus from spreading and affecting the safety of the people in the palace."

Nan Muchen heard Su Mumu mention that there was a smell of corpses in the Jade Palace, and knowing that corpses that had not been handled for a long time would indeed bring plague, he immediately stopped Su Mumu from going to the Jade Palace.

"Madam, my husband is with me for everything. I will go to the Jade Palace to check things out before I let my wife know."

Nan Muchen's words warmed Su Mumu's heart, but she was afraid that she would make it up out of thin air. Nan Muchen went to the Jade Palace and couldn't find any corpse smell, so Su Mumu insisted on going to the Jade Palace.

Su Mumu couldn't resist, so Nan Muchen had to order people to bring various sachets to ward off the plague and hang them all over Su Mumu's body. Each sachet was made of exquisite embroidery and was of the highest quality. Su Mumu, who had always liked embroidery, happily hung the sachets casually.

good.

Suddenly remembering that Baili Ruyue would never leave a lynched person in a servant's room, she quietly asked Forsythia to take He Huan with her after she had finished washing herself.
