Seeing this, Xi Yu shook his head helplessly, then waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Come on, bring the torture instrument!"

After a while, the soldiers walked in with various torture instruments, and the torture instruments flashed with a cold light under the light.

Xi Yu turned to look at Tuoba Yu and asked, "Tuoba Yu, can you see this?"

Tuoba Yu had a expressionless face, his eyes were firm, he raised his chin slightly, and said, "Hmph, I am different from those women in the Central Plains, so I won't be afraid." There was a hint of stubbornness and perseverance on her face.

Jin Gushun looked righteous and frowned, and said to Xi Yu earnestly: "Prime Minister, you can't use torture! This is a means used by despicable villains. You are the prime minister who everyone praises. How can you act like this?"

Xi Yu responded coldly with a sharp look on his face, "Don't talk nonsense! This is the punishment he deserves."

Soon, Jin Gushun's miserable scream came from the room.

He rolled on the ground, moaning in pain, and was beaten torn apart for a while.

Jin Gushun said in a trembling voice: "I...I did lie, now I am willing to tell the truth...please stop beating..."

Tuoba Yu sneered, his tone full of irony.

"Why do you have to suffer before you say it? Wouldn't it be better if that would have happened?"

Next, Xi Yu waved his hand and signaled the soldiers to stop.

Jin Gushun gasped, his face pale as paper.

He lowered his head and said in a trembling voice: "It was me... who set a fire and burned Lu Zhe, Tuoba Lu and others to death... I just came to lie on purpose. Because... I hope you will attack Xianbei..."

There was complex emotions flashing in his eyes, both fear and a hint of determination.

When Xi Yu heard this, his brows frowned tightly, his eyes filled with shock and anger.

He shouted sternly: "You did such a bold and reckless thing!"

Tuoba Yu stared at Jin Gushun angrily, yelling: "You... dare to lie..."

At the same time, after hearing the news of "Brother's death", Tuoba Yu's face instantly showed a look of shock. Her eyes widened and her mouth was slightly open, as if she could not believe this fact.

"My brother...he was actually dead..." Tuoba Yu murmured to himself, his voice full of shock and pain.

Then, her eyes gradually became wet, and tears poured out uncontrollably. She started crying and her body trembled slightly.

Seeing this, Xi Yu hurriedly walked to Tuoba Yu, patted her shoulder gently, and comforted her: "Tuoba Yu, be sad and follow the changes. We must be strong and avenge your brother."

Then, Xi Yu's face became extremely gloomy. He glared wide, his forehead was full of blue veins, and he roared, "Come on, kill this Jin Gushun!"

A few soldiers came over quickly and took Jin Gu away.

Jin Gushun knew that he had no way to live, so he stopped begging for mercy.

While hugging Tuoba Yu, Xi Yu gently patted her back and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Tuoba Yu lay in Xi Yu's arms, tears kept flowing. She choked and said, "Once upon a time, I hated my brother, but later I stopped hating him. But I didn't expect that he would die like this." Her voice was filled with endless sadness and regret.

Tuoba Yu cried heartbrokenly, tears gushed out like a flood that broke through the dam, and her body trembled constantly because of excessive sadness.

She had originally fantasized about the scene of meeting her brother after seeing her. She couldn't wait.

Seeing this, Xi Yu felt very distressed. He quickly stepped forward and picked up Tuoba Yu, and said softly: "Stop crying, I'm here."

Then, Xi Yu picked her up.

When he arrived at Tuoba Yu's room, Xi Yu gently placed her on the bed.

Tuoba Yu suppressed the grief, raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, forced a smile, and said, "I'm fine, don't worry too much." Her voice was slightly hoarse.

Xi Yu looked at Tuoba Yu's sad look, frowned slightly, and said softly: "If you are still so sad, why not postpone the wedding date later, okay?"

Tuoba Yu shook his head, showed a firm expression on his face, and said, "No need to do this, just follow the original plan, and there is no need to change it at will. Besides, in the words of you Central Plains people, this can be considered a joy."

Xi Yu looked at Tuoba Yu with a smile, his eyes full of admiration and tenderness.

He whispered: "Tuoba Yu, you are really a very understanding and good girl."

Tuoba Yu turned red slightly, lowered her head and said shyly: "I just did what I should have done."

There was a little embarrassment in her voice, but there was a glimmer of joy in her eyes.

Xi Yu returned to the room, frowned slightly, thinking.

Tomorrow, I will send someone to the inn to find Xiao Cui and the others and ask them to go home directly. Tuoba Lu is dead.

The next day, a soldier did as Xi Yu ordered to do this.

After Xiao Cui learned about Tuoba Lu's death, her face showed irrepressible excitement. She said excitedly: "It's great, my father's revenge can finally be avenged!"

There was a light of joy in her eyes, as if the knot of her heart that had been in its for many days had finally been untied.

However, a hint of regret also appeared on her face. She sighed and muttered to herself: "What a pity, he died unexpectedly. I originally hoped that he could be judged by Xi Yu to death."

There was a little regret in her eyes.

Qian Guoqiang looked at Xiao Cui with gentleness in his eyes.

"Xiao Cui, no matter what, the shopkeeper's matter has been resolved. It's time for us to go back."

Xiao Cui nodded slightly, revealing a hint of fatigue in her eyes, but also a little peace of mind.

Qian Guoqiang slowly stretched out his hand, grabbed Xiao Cui's hand, snatched it hard, and said solemnly: "Although the shopkeeper is gone, I will take care of you in the future."

A hint of blush appeared on Xiao Cui's face. She lowered her head slightly and said shyly: "Thank you, Brother Qian, when I finish filial piety for my father, I will marry you."

When Qian Guoqiang heard this, a bright smile suddenly burst out on his face, and a glimmer of joy flashed in his eyes. He said excitedly: "Okay, I'll wait for you!"

Then, the two of them held hands and left the inn together. Their steps were light and firm, as if they were heading towards a bright future.

On the Xianbei side, a feeling of uneasiness suddenly surged in Tuoba Tianlong's heart.

He frowned and thought to himself that Lu Zhe and others would go there this time, but I wonder if it would be successful.

At the same time, a doubt spread in his heart.

He couldn't help but wonder: Will Lu Zhe be instigated by Tuoba Lu?

No, no, Lu Zhe has always been loyal, and he should not be easily incited.

Tuoba Tianlong tried hard to convince himself in his heart, but the trace of worry was still lingering.

Tuoba Tianlong frowned and immediately became worried again.

Immediately afterwards, he sighed heavily and began to complain.

After all, Lu Zhe and Tuoba Lu cooperated well before, so Lu Zhe shouldn't have been allowed to go there.

But what's the use of regret now?

His eyes became dull, as if he had lost hope.
