That day was the 16th, and she refused to eat at both lunch and dinner. Then the whole day on the 17th, she still refused to eat anything in the morning, noon and evening. At first she was very thirsty and drank some water, but gradually she had no strength at all and just lay down.
In bed, I didn't even bother to drink water.
In the first two days after arriving, the Soviet female military doctor would check her body every day. Now since she went on a hunger strike, the female military doctor has stopped coming, and Shi Shi Ge Ge is the only one left in the room. Fourteen Ge Ge also understands that the Soviets
She was also making a gesture of "we don't care whether you live or die." Fourteen Princesses had already made it clear that she was going to commit suicide on a hunger strike. If the Soviets stayed in the room all day and checked her body, they were not clearly afraid of her.
Die?
On the third day, the 18th, Fourteen Gege could no longer get up. She only felt light all over and her ears were ringing. After closing her eyes, Venus was appearing in front of her eyes. She didn't feel hungry at all.
But she felt unspeakably uncomfortable all over her body. Two days ago, she could still close her eyes and think, but today, her brain could no longer concentrate on thinking, and her mind was in a state of wandering.
When deciding to go on a hunger strike, Shi Shigege was worried that if a Ming army commando happened to come to rescue her, and she had no physical strength due to the hunger strike and could not run with them, the operation might fail. But after thinking about it, this risk is certainly possible.
, but they may not know that they are here. The most important thing right now is to use a hunger strike to win bargaining chips and negotiate terms with the Soviets. At least let the outside world know that they are here, and at the same time, they must live in the castle. Otherwise, even if the commandos come,
, it is very possible that he only focused on the castle to kill Guangwu, and missed the opportunity to escape. Then I'm afraid he will never be able to escape.
…
On the night of the 18th, it seemed that the Soviets could no longer sit still.
First, the female military doctor opened the door and came in. She sat by the bed and listened to Shi Shigege's heartbeat, blood pressure, and temperature. Behind her stood a tall plainclothes Soviet. He must also be an NKVD agent. The more the female military doctor checked, the more
, he looked more and more frightened, and finally turned his face and spoke in Russian, his voice trembling. The big spy behind him also turned pale and looked very nervous.
The two people exited, probably to ask their superiors for instructions. Then after a while, three female military doctors came in and were busy hanging bottles on the fourteen grids, inserting needles, and injecting something that was probably glucose or nutrient solution.
.
But Shi Shigege didn't show any dignity at all. He pulled the needle off in one go, and a small stream of blood gushed out from the back of her hand, staining the quilt red. The three female military doctors were frightened, and quickly held down her hands and gave her
Use cotton balls to stop the bleeding. A female military doctor ran out again to ask for instructions from her superiors. After a while, the big spy came in again.
He said something sullenly. The three female military doctors looked at each other, took out bandages, tied both of Shi Shigege's hands to the bed guardrail, and then gave her the injection.
Now Shi Shigege couldn't break free. She didn't have the strength anymore.
Although the diaphragm was administered, several Soviet people still looked at each other in confusion, their expressions getting more and more ugly. They did not expect that things would turn out like this: the good Princess of Ming Dynasty, the second number one intelligence chief of the Ming Dynasty, was now tied up half alive.
There is no mention of hanging a bottle on the bed, any interrogation, or threats. The Soviets are afraid of her death, and now they have shown it clearly. Now they have no capital at all. This most valuable prisoner no longer takes his own
Life is a serious matter. Threatening her with death will definitely have no effect now. Torturing her would be tantamount to completely giving up her huge political value and only focusing on her little intelligence value. That would be such a waste.
…
At night, I don't know what time it was, Shi Shigege suddenly felt the light dazzling her eyes. She opened her eyes drowsily and found that the lights in the room were on, and there was someone sitting beside her bed, looking at her.
After several hours of glucose infusion, Shi Shige Ge felt better now and had recovered some physical strength. More importantly, her brain power had also recovered and she could concentrate on thinking. She squinted her eyes and looked around the bed in a daze.
of this person.
He was a Soviet man, about forty years old, with a fair, round face and round eyes. He was gentle and elegant, with a bookish air. He was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at her with a harmless smile.
However, there is an extremely sharp light in those kind eyes. People in the circle can tell at a glance that it is the unique look of an old spy.
Fourteen Gege also squeezed out a smile, tried his best to open his dry lips, and smiled hoarsely:
"Be...Beria..."
Beria didn't even need a translator, and he recognized that his name was being spoken. He smiled and nodded. At the same time, he raised his index finger, stopped the translator behind him and moved forward.
Although the man in front of him is not as familiar to Shi Shi Ge Ge as Yenov, as the second-largest figure in the Soviet secret police, Shi Shi Ge Ge knows his situation very well. Just like the situation of Shi Shi Ge Ge,
Beria must also know everything about it. Lavrenty Pavlovich Beria, People's Commissar of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. On the surface, this person looks like a white-faced scholar, but in fact he is ruthless.
This man served in the notorious "Committee for Purging Counterrevolutionaries" in the 1920s, and participated in the purge of a large number of party and government cadres during the Lenin era.
"KGB". Beria later served as the first secretary of the Georgian Party Central Committee and the first secretary of the Party Committee of the Transcaucasus Border Region. During this period, Beria also purged a large number of party and government cadres, intellectuals and
Nationalist. Of course, so far, Beria's "political achievements" are far from comparable to Yenov's.
Until last month, there was intelligence that Beria went to Moscow to report on his work and meet with Stalin. Stalin appointed him as the "First Deputy People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the Soviet Union", or also called "First Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Now, what's in front of him?
This Beria is indeed the second-largest spy chief in the Soviet Union after Yenov.
…
Beria looked at the fourteen grids, said a word with a smile, and then signaled for translation.
The translator behind him was stunned for a moment, and then without daring to hesitate, he immediately said in Chinese:
"your Highness."
Fourteen Gege was also quite surprised to hear them call her "Her Royal Highness". Considering the identity of the other party, it is very dangerous to call him inappropriately. Could it be that... this was instructed by Stalin?
Beria continued to smile kindly and said:
"Your Highness, please don't be offended. Comrade Yenov and I are different. I'm not here to interrogate you, I'm here to visit you. Please don't worry."
After listening to the translation, Shi Shigege still stared at him, but did not speak and just nodded.
Beria smiled and said:
"If you need anything, just tell me."
Fourteen Gege nodded again, but still didn't speak, guessing what he meant.
Beria sat forward and smiled gently:
"Your Highness Princess, you must know that Comrade Yenov was appointed by Comrade Stalin to interrogate you, so he has to be strict with you. He has his difficulties, and I hope Your Highness can understand... But as for me, haha..."
Fourteen Gege slowly squinted her eyes and stared at him, waiting for him to continue.
Beria smiled and said:
"I was sent by Comrade Stalin, um... to help you."
Shi Shigege listened to the interpreter and guessed the meaning of his words. She still just looked at him without showing any expression and asked him to continue talking.
Beria couldn't see any reaction from Shi Shigege's face, so he smiled and said:
"Well, Your Royal Highness, do you have any requests? You can tell me and I will try my best to help you. You see, this is not good for everyone... You have to know that Comrade Stalin may give you more than you think.
There are many. Your way out is far wider than you think."
The corners of Shishi Gege's mouth raised slightly, revealing a shallow smile.
Beria immediately responded with a kinder smile, lowered his body, and turned his ears to show that he was listening carefully.
Fourteen Gege licked her chapped lips and tried to smile:
"S... Comrade Stalin... wants me to eat?"
After listening to the translation, Beria turned to look at her and nodded with a smile:
"Yes. Comrade Stalin is very concerned about the health of Her Royal Highness. After hearing about Her Highness's condition, he criticized Comrade Yenov's rough work style and lack of attention to methods, so he specially sent me here as Comrade Yenov's assistant.'
Assist him in his work. Do you understand this?"
Fourteen Gege looked at Beria's eyes, slowly guessing the implications...According to Stalin's consistent style, could it be that...Yenov has fallen out of favor? Is he going to be finished? Beria is required to "assist"
In fact, he wants to sort out the dirty information and bite out Yenov with the help of the fourteen-part mouth? Label him a "spy" and "traitor" and then arrest him?
