Chapter 16 Not afraid
When the man only had one breath left, he was hung in the courtyard outside the hall to let everyone watch. As for the beauty, she had also been rewarded by Lin Qing to the people at his side.
Seven or eight people adorned in the dark blue uniform of Inner Eunuch dragged the already frightened beauty to the next room. Soon, the woman’s crying and the men’s evil laughter could be heard. Presumably, that woman also wouldn’t be able to survive.
Eunuchs were physically disabled and couldn’t have relations with people. However, they had countless of ways to get pleasure from woman and could also let the women feel like they were in the seventh heaven or let them wish they were dead, in order to satisfy their abnormal psychology.
The hall was terrible quiet. The obscene language of the next room could be heard. The whole hall was shrouded by a gloomy atmosphere like the palace of the king of hell.
All the beauties were pale and shivering. The timid ones could only lean on their maids for support.
Lin Qing seemed to carelessly play with the green jade ring on his hand. The thin white fingers gently turned the ring on the finger. Everyone’s heart seemed to be pinched by that hand and also gently turned with a burst of cold.
Lin Qing’s gaze swept over everyone like the cold water in a pool. Everyone was immediately covered in coldness as if they had fallen into ice and snow.
The dagger-like lips slowly opened. Lin Qing said slowly, “After entering Qiansui’s residence means that you are my people. Although, I’m a eunuch, but I also can’t tolerate betrayal. If you are not willing, then their ending would be your ending. Do you understand?”
Lin Qing spoke slowly. Everyone had their head lowered, especially the beauties of the residence. Their body couldn’t get more lower and softly said, “Yes.” Because they knew that what had happened today was just to show them.
How could they not know Lord Qiansui’s ruthlessness? However, some people still couldn’t withstand the loneliness and had relations with another man, ushering Lord Qiansui’s anger.
Lin Qing was the god here. What he said was the mandate of heaven. Even if the emperor came, it would be useless. This was the reminder everyone reminded themselves about in their hearts.
When everyone was almost gone, Zhao Zimu also planned to leave, but was stopped by several people wearing the blue uniform.
Zhao Zimu stooped and turned slightly to look at the person in the main seat. Then, she lowered her body and waited quietly. Ling Er behind her was terrified. Although, she didn’t understand what was happening, but she did the same as Zhao Zimu and waited.
Zhao Zimu felt that someone slowly approached her. There were the slow sounds of the footsteps until a pair of moire black golden brocade shoes stopped in front of her eyes. The complex patterned and gorgeous sleeve swayed slightly in front of her eyes. Even if she didn’t look, she knew who this person was.
That person’s fingertips lightly grabbed her chin and she raised her head obediently.
Lin Qing’s eyes seemed so deep as if they would swallow up people. He asked, “Are you afraid of me?”
Zhao Zimu’s face was very pale without a bit of blush. Only the eyebrows were outlined with a light powder to shape them. It was clean and refreshing. The color of her lips was very light unlike the bright and colorful of other women. The straight nose made her face very graceful, but it also had an elegance that blurred her gender.
Zhao Zimu felt the warmth of the fingertips on her chin. They were cold and warm at the same time. Then she smiled softly, “Not afraid.”
