Chapter 321: Master Zhang Likes to Play Abuse
Zhu Xia lowered her voice and asked, "What's the matter with the wound on your hand? Did Master Zhang abuse you?"
Xie Qingzhi had been staying by Lin Ling's side and hadn't noticed it. Only after hearing Zhu Xia's reminder did she notice the injury on Lin Ling's arm.
Xie Qingzhi strode forward, grabbed Lin Ling's arm, and pulled up her sleeve, revealing her arm covered with red and purple marks. In addition to those red and purple marks, there were many burns. Xie Qingzhi frowned slightly and asked in a cold voice, "What's going on?"
Lin Ling lowered her eyes, not daring to look into the eyes of Xie Qingzhi and Zhu Xia. Xie Qingzhi was a married man after all, so there was nothing he didn't understand. Although Zhu Xia was not married, she had been with Gu Jianchu and had seen all kinds of things. She was just a little slower than Xie Qingzhi, so she also understood everything.
Xie Qingzhi rushed forward and kicked Lord Zhang directly in the chest. Lord Zhang was kicked unexpectedly and fell to the side. "Beast, calling you a beast is an insult to beasts. How can there be a scumbag like you in the world?"
After kicking Xie Qingzhi, he was still not satisfied. He grabbed a plate beside him and smashed it directly at Mr. Zhang's face. Mr. Zhang's head was instantly broken and bleeding.
Gu Jianchu and Xie Ci'an looked at Xie Qingzhi in confusion while he vented his anger.
Zhu Xia leaned close to Gu Jianchu's ear and whispered a few words.
Hearing this, Gu Jianchu's face instantly turned cold.
[Damn, I didn't expect this Mr. Zhang to be such a pervert in bed. He loves to torture those girls, often whipping them, dripping wax on them, and even causing burns. He also loves to listen to the girls' voices to relieve his emotions.]
【Pervert, what kind of pervert is this. 】
[It wasn't just Lin Ling. Many girls simply couldn't stand Master Zhang's abuse. Some girls, unable to bear it, took advantage of Master Zhang's absence and committed suicide. Some were even tortured to death by Master Zhang.]
Some people are truly beasts in disguise. They appear to be good people on the surface, but they are actually such vicious creatures in secret.
Xie Qingzhi was already angry enough when he saw Lin Ling's wound. After hearing Gu Jianchu's inner voice, Xie Qingzhi went berserk. He drew the sword from the waist of a guard beside him and pierced through the palm of Lord Zhang with it. Blood flowed out and Lord Zhang screamed in pain, curling up in a mess.
Just as Xie Qingzhi was about to strike the second time, Madam Zhang rushed forward and stood in front of Master Zhang, "Please spare my life."
Xie Qingzhi's sword stopped in mid-air, staring at Madam Zhang in disbelief, "Do you know what you are doing?"
"I know." Madam Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xie Qingzhi angrily throw the sword aside. She looked at Master Zhang with tender eyes and said, "I know he has done many wrong things and harmed many girls, but his crimes do not deserve death. So please spare his life and hand him over to the emperor for punishment."
Hearing this, Xie Qingzhi said in a tone of regret, "She is really an idiot. She has not only harmed other girls, but why don't you take a look at what he has done to those girls? Maybe some girls have died in his hands because of this."
"Zhu Xia." Xie Qingzhi shouted angrily.
Zhu Xia immediately stepped forward and brought Lin Ling to Xie Qingzhi.
Xie Qingzhi rolled up Lin Ling's sleeves, revealing her bluish-purple skin and the burn marks on her arms. Those marks were fresh, probably because she had been burned not long ago.
Xie Qingzhi pushed Lin Ling in front of Madam Zhang. "Look, look for yourself. This is what your good husband did to those girls. If he had just kidnapped them and imprisoned them in the mansion, it would have been fine. But she not only bullied those girls, but also harmed them to such a state. You are a woman yourself, don't you have any empathy at all?"
No wonder the Queen wanted Madam Zhang to see her husband's true face bit by bit. This woman was really brainwashed by Lord Zhang and was hopeless. She still thought her husband was a good man. Even when she knew that her husband had a mistress outside, she did not blame him too much. The only blame was why he didn't tell her.
A woman like this will never look back unless she stumbles a little. She may even think that everyone is wrong and is harming her husband.
When Mrs. Zhang saw the injuries on Lin Ling's body, she looked at her husband in surprise, "Are these real?"
Mr. Zhang was sweating all over his head from the pain, and even breathing was painful. He did not answer Mrs. Zhang's questions at all.
"What else do you have to ask? Isn't there anything obvious? Lin Ling just escaped from his house and has been imprisoned by him all this time. Who else could it be except him? Do you still expect that it was the servant who did that to Lin Ling? Would your husband agree to that? You are really a silly woman." Xie Qingzhi didn't know what to curse and angrily pulled Lin Ling aside.
Mrs. Zhang sat on the ground in despair, the color on her face fading.
Gu Jianchu looked at Mrs. Zhang and shook his head helplessly.
[I can't accept it now, but I'm afraid there will be even more unacceptable things later.]
The Left Prime Minister had also been standing nearby. When he saw the wounds on Lin Ling's body, his face was filled with surprise. He looked at Lord Zhang beside him in amazement.
He has been with Lord Zhang for so many years, but he has never really seen through this man.
This person actually did so many disgusting things.
"Qiutou, take Madam Zhang aside, and drag Lord Zhang aside. It makes me sick to see him covered in blood." Gu Jianchu's face was full of disgust.
As soon as Gu Jianchu finished speaking, Zhongfeng appeared in front of everyone with a man covered in blood. The man's body was covered with wounds left by various torture instruments, and the blood had almost dried on his body. It seemed that the torture had not just started, but should have been last night or even earlier.
When he got closer, Lord Zhang immediately recognized Lin Qi, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
Not long after Lin Ling broke into the palace and the emperor had just ordered a thorough investigation of Lin Qi, Lin Qi was brought to the palace, covered in wounds. This shows that the emperor had known about these things for a long time and was still asking the Imperial City Bureau to investigate secretly.
Otherwise, Lin Qi wouldn't have appeared by chance.
Even Lin Ling's appearance was too coincidental. It was the emperor and the queen who deliberately released Lin Ling. Otherwise, how could a little girl like Lin Ling break into the palace alone?
Lord Zhang's heart finally settled down, and his face was dead calm.
It's over, completely over.
The emperor has found out everything.
