Chapter 48 The Surrender
Looking at Yan Yichen's appearance, Gu Hengyu knew that he should have been prepared for a long time, and there should be nothing to find out from Aunt Lian, so he turned his attention to the hidden guard beside Aunt Lian.

"Why were you by her side when the Ministry of Criminal Justice searched?" Gu Hengyu asked the hidden guard.

The dark guard took Aunt Lian to hide in the dark room. When the people from the Ministry of Justice searched, the dark guard had no choice but to run away, but the people from the Ministry of Justice did not want to let him go. To catch him.

At this time, the hidden guard was already covered with scars because he had fought against the criminals while escaping. He endured the pain and replied, "I just had a crush on this woman, and I didn't know her identity. I just brought her into this mansion casually. Thinking of being discovered by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, bah, really bad luck."

Yan Yichen saw that the hidden guard was still loyal to him and did not betray him, and his heart gradually became less nervous.

"I really don't know if you are lucky or not. If you are unlucky, you just entered the secret room in the third prince's mansion. If you are lucky, you are still in our hands." Shen Yuzhi looked at The hidden guard sneered.

If it wasn't someone close to Yan Yichen, how could he know exactly the dark room in the third prince's mansion?

Seeing that the hidden guard did not intend to tell the truth, Shen Yuzhi turned to Yan Yichen and said, "Third prince, he is really disrespectful to you by causing you trouble like this, so I will take him there now to torture him so that he will not have any harm." There is no bigger conspiracy."

After Yan Yichen heard it, he gasped in his chest. Now that the hidden guard doesn't confess himself, if he is really tortured, he doesn't know if he can bear it.

"Of course, this person must be severely punished." Yan Yichen had no reason to prevent them from torturing the hidden guard, so he could only nod his head.

Shen Yuzhi smiled at Yan Yichen, as if he felt the same way as Yan Yichen, full of resentment at the secret guard for framing him.

Gu Hengyu did not stop Shen Yuzhi's behavior towards the hidden guard, but watched quietly from the side.

I saw Shen Yuzhi glanced at the various instruments of torture placed beside him, and frowned, as if he disliked the uselessness of these, he clapped his hands and called the guards outside the cell to come in.

"Mr. Shen, do you have any orders?" The people who came in naturally knew the identities of the people inside. Whether it was the son of Shangshu or the prince, they were all people he couldn't afford to offend, and their words could not be more respectful.

Shen Yuzhi patted the man on the shoulder and said to him, "Go, go and get me a bowl of salt."

The face of the guard who came in suddenly changed, he glanced at the hidden guard on the ground, and went out to get the salt with his head down.

Except for Gu Hengyu who had no expression on his face, Yan Yichen and the hidden guards on the ground felt chills in their hearts and backs when they heard it, and even Aunt Lian's face showed a slight change.

There were more than 20 large and small wounds on the guard's body, and they were new wounds suffered today. If Shen Yuzhi really sprinkled salt on the wounds, the taste of them must be unbearable.

The people outside quickly brought in the salt that Shen Yuzhi asked for. Shen Yuzhi nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the large bowl of salt in front of him, and then approached the hidden guard on the ground step by step, smiling as suavely as ever.

Shen Yuzhi squatted down slowly, looked at the person in front of him, and asked, "I'm giving you a chance, are you really not going to say it?"

A little fear finally appeared on the face of the dark guard, and he couldn't help but glance at Yan Yichen, who shook his head at him.

"That was the truth just now, Mr. Shen, what else do you want me to say?" The dark guard looked at Yan Yichen's hints to him, and said ruthlessly.

Shen Yuzhi smiled, "You are really loyal, then I will reward you for your master. I heard that spreading salt on the wound is good for recovery, but I don't know if it is true or not."

As he spoke, he asked someone to hold down the hidden guard, while he slowly sprinkled salt on his wound.

As soon as the wound touched the salt, the hidden guard couldn't help but want to break free from the person who was holding him down, screaming in pain, but this was only the first wound, and there were more than 20 wounds behind.

When it reached the third wound, the hidden guard finally couldn't bear it anymore, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he slurred in pain, "I said...I said."

After Shen Yuzhi heard it, he immediately stopped his hands, handed the salt bowl to the person around him, stood up and clapped his hands and glanced at the person on the ground: "Just say no earlier, so I won't waste time here."

Gu Hengyu spoke again at this time, and said to the hidden guard who still had pain on his face, "Tell me, what's going on?"

"It's the third prince. The third prince sent me to arrest her. I... I'm the third prince's hidden guard." The dark guard was slurred in pain, and spoke intermittently.

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Gu Hengyu and the others to ask for proof, Yan Yichen slapped the table and stood up, walked to the dark guard, knelt down and grabbed his neck, with a vicious expression on his face, and asked, "Why do you want to Say that? What good does it do you to frame me?"

As he said that, he gradually exerted force on his wrist, trying to strangle the person in front of him to death.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed Yan Yichen's wrist and forced him to let go. Yan Yichen raised his head and saw Gu Hengyu's expressionless face, looking at him coldly.

"Third prince, let go." Gu Hengyu said to Yan Yichen, although he called him the third prince, but there was no respect in his tone.

Under the pressure Gu Hengyu put on him, Yan Yichen let go of the comforting hand on the ground.

"Cough cough cough... cough cough... third prince, I'm sorry, I can't die, I still have a wife and children to take care of." After the dark guard was released, he finally got air, couldn't help coughing, and took out his own The token on his body to prove his identity was handed over to Gu Hengyu with his feeble skills.

Gu Hengyu picked it up, and his identity as a secret guard was clearly written on it.

Aunt Lian laughed out loud after seeing it from the side: "Yan Yichen, your retribution has come, how can you pretend now."

At this time, Yan Yichen was really flustered and didn't know how to continue explaining.

"Third prince, I will hand over this thing and these two people to the emperor." Gu Hengyu said without emotion, as if he didn't take Yan Yichen's prince status into his eyes at all.

"Master Gu, Mr. Shen, someone from outside came to say that he was the murderer who killed Sun Shilang and kidnapped Aunt Lian." The guards outside ran in and said to the people in the cell.

"What?" Shen Yuzhi said.

Gu Hengyu looked at Yan Yichen, and saw him sitting there, no longer flustered just now, with a smug smile on his face, and also looking at Gu Hengyu.

Because the case now involves the prince and concerns the face of the Tian family, naturally it cannot be tried in front of everyone. After learning the news, they sent someone to bring the person who surrendered.

When the people below brought him in, everyone's eyes were filled with astonishment, even Gu Hengyu didn't expect that the person who came in was Xiao Dingshan, the Minister of Dali Temple!
