Chapter 279 Secret Interrogation
Imperial study room

Ye Huaichu leaned on the dragon chair, and the words he heard behind the rockery kept echoing in his ears.

"I can't see the scenery of the world, my relatives and friends, I can't see the road under my feet, and I am always in darkness..."

"This kind of pain where you just feel desolate, helpless no matter where you are."

At that time, her tone was sad, as if she had experienced it herself.

If she hadn't experienced it herself, how would she know what it feels like to be blind at such a young age?
Ye Huaichu couldn't judge what happened to her before meeting her.

But isn't she the only daughter of the Gu family?
"Lu Xin!"

"Subordinates are here."

Ye Huaichu rested his hand on his forehead weakly, "How many servants of the Gu family that I asked you to check before are still in the capital?"

Lu Dao said: "If you go back to the prince, there are probably seven or eight others. The others have already bought them elsewhere. The prince asked about them, but what do you want to order?"

"Bring them secretly, the king has something to ask them."

"Yes."

The more we get along, the more Ye Huaichu feels that there are many things about Gu Qingning that he doesn't know.

The Gu family... what happened?
In other words, what happened to Gu Qingning?
The night shrouded the earth, and the cold palace in the remote part of the palace was extremely bleak, and there was a gloomy chill everywhere, which made people fearful.

Several people were brought in with their hands tied with ropes and hoods on their heads.

Their bodies were trembling constantly, and one of them even wet his pants in fright.

They didn't know what was waiting for them ahead, they were just planning to rest late at night, but they were knocked out with a club and brought out.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the detainees threw them on the ground like rubbish, and the ground was full of wailing.

The next moment, the hoods were taken off their heads. They wanted to escape in a panic, but they were surrounded by hidden guards holding long swords. Where could they escape?
"Help...I don't want to die..."

"Help me..."

"Scream one more time, and I'll cut off your tongues." Lu Xin pulled out his long sword, and there was a gloomy light on it, scaring them to silence immediately, and they didn't dare to say a word again.

In front of them stood a white carved screen, behind which a figure could be vaguely seen, presumably the one who ordered them to be brought was the person behind this screen.

"Our master will ask you some questions later. You just have to answer, don't deviate from the question. After answering, you will naturally be released. If you are not obedient, then you can only become my ghosts." Lu Xin's voice was cold. , fiddling with the long sword in his hand to scare them.

"Listen...be obedient, we must be obedient, you can ask whatever the adults want, and the villains will definitely answer."

Lu Xin nodded with satisfaction: "That's right."

People have been frightened enough, and then we will start to get down to business.

"Before General Gu died in battle, did anything happen to Gu's family in the past five years? Tell us what you know and what you find unusual. The one who talks the most will get a reward of ten taels of silver." Ye Huaichu Raising his hand, someone walked up to them with a silver reward.

That's a lot of money, these people are maids and servants who work in other people's houses, they have seen so much money, but they have never owned so much.

With a glance, there must be hundreds of taels of silver in total, right?
"I said, I said, two years ago, the mansion invited a celestial master to come to the mansion to exorcise evil spirits. It is said that the firewood house was haunted by ghosts..."
