"Emperor, please forgive this commoner for being unable to comply."
Jiang Ke was a man of strong blood and was not afraid of Imperial Power, "This commoner's heart belongs to someone I love, I cannot marry another. Even if death awaits, I am unafraid."
"Silence! Jiang Ke!"
He Ying could not bear to see him express his true feelings and obsession for Sang Yan, Long Yan furiously said, "Insolent fool! You have the audacity to defy and offend your superior! Guards, administer fifty strokes and throw him in the Heavenly Prison."
Jiang Ke: "..."
He did not beg for mercy.
During the punishment, fifty strokes, each landing heavily on flesh, it did not take long before blood was drawn, yet he forcefully endured, not making a sound.
"...Thirty-two, thirty-three..."
The eunuchs counted the strokes, showing no mercy with each hit.
