Chapter 226 Interrogating the Dead
After regaining his senses, his heart was full of anger. A barren woman is still sitting firmly in the position of the princess. As long as he thinks that Wen Xin will make Shangguan Ming lose his incense, Zhou Qing can't wait to rush to Wen Xin immediately and put She eats them alive.

Shang Hanlian pretended to be surprised and asked: "Ma'am, don't you know that the last time the concubine was injured in the palace, the imperial doctor diagnosed that the concubine would be extremely difficult to conceive in the future, the prince felt sorry for her and blocked the news at that time, but he knew the news There are still quite a few people, I thought you knew it too."

After finishing speaking, Shang Hanlian deliberately lowered her head, her eyes were full of gloating.

Zhou Qing was very angry at this moment, knowing that she was going to talk to Shangguan Ming about this matter now, except for making Shangguan Ming unhappy again, she would not be able to shake Wen Xin's position in Shangguan Ming's heart at all.

At the beginning, King Qing blamed Concubine Bai for neglecting her because of the child in her womb. The most important thing for a man is power and heirs.

As long as other women are pregnant with Shangguan Ming's son, they will definitely attract Shangguan Ming's attention.

At this time, Zhou Qing's abacus was clattering in his heart, and Shang Hanlian, who was kneeling on the ground, bowed his head and said nothing, and made a sound with some worry. "Madam, don't be angry, it's not worth getting angry."

Seeing Shang Hanlian kneeling on the ground, with a pink face and pitiful eyes looking up at her, Zhou Qing suddenly asked.

"Do you want to be a princess?"

Shang Hanlian was stunned for a while, with a shy face, and then a lost face. "But the prince doesn't like me, he only likes the princess sister. Lian'er doesn't want to be a princess, as long as she can be a real side princess, she will be satisfied. Ma'am, Lian'er really likes the prince. For him, no matter how long Lian'er waits, she will be satisfied." willing."

Hearing this, Zhou Qing remembered that Shang Hanlian had waited for Ming'er for several years, and never had the intention of remarrying.

The marriage between Shang Hanlian and Ming'er was decided by her at the beginning, and she regretted that Shang Hanlian was not her daughter-in-law, Zhou Qing's heart softened at the thought of this.

"Then listen to my orders, and I will make you a princess as you wish." Zhou Qing's eyes were full of ruthlessness, no matter who is the princess is fine, as long as the literary heart is not good enough.

Shang Hanlian pretended to be pleasantly surprised and excited, looking at Zhou Qing with eyes full of gratitude, but her heart was filled with cynicism, she just obeyed Zhou Qing's orders, if something happened, the prince could not blame her.

With Zhou Qing standing on her behalf, she is not responsible for what happens. This old woman still thinks she is so powerful, and she is not being used by her now.

"Madam, what do you want me to do next, I must obey Madam's orders." Zhou Qing was extremely satisfied with Shang Hanlian's obedient and obedient appearance.

Even if such a person becomes a princess and wins Ming'er's favor, he will never dare to disobey her, she still has the final say in the family.

Zhou Qing lived peacefully in his own courtyard for several days. The emperor sent news that a connector was caught in the dark pavilion. In order to prevent him from committing suicide, he is now controlled in the dungeon. .

"Wait, can I go too and bring Yun'er with me?" Wen Xin pulled Shangguan Ming, she wanted to do something to avenge Wen Le as soon as possible.

Shangguan Ming couldn't stop Wen Xin's request at all, he nodded in agreement, and Wen Xin ordered to go on, and brought An Yi and the others with him, intending to let them take a good look at Lu'er's ability and make them be careful of Lu'er at all times.

Because it was midnight, Shangguan Ming and Wen Xin's group went to the dungeon through a secret passage, and the emperor was already interrogating, but the prisoner's mouth was tight, and several experts were watching, as long as he committed suicide in the slightest, they would Use your hands to save people, in case the criminals kill you.

"You are here, this man is very stubborn, no matter how tortured he is, he will not speak, and he wants to die." Most of these dead men will not give useful information.

A few days ago, they caught several dead men like this, and they all committed suicide successfully, without asking any useful news.

The guards brought a chair for Wen Xin, and Wen Xin looked around the dungeon curiously. It was very large, at least two hundred square meters, with various instruments of torture, and the blood stains on them had already turned black.

These instruments of torture are used on prisoners, and infection alone may kill them.

The walls of the dungeon were inlaid with luminous pearls for lighting, and the corners of Wen Xin's mouth twitched when he saw it. It really was a palace, and the dungeon was so grand.

An Yi and the others were surprised by this situation. At first they were a little worried that Wen Xin was not used to it, but when Wen Xin didn't even blink his eyes in the face of the prisoner's screams, they remembered that the weak princess in front of them could kill people. His face remained unchanged.

After torturing the dead man for a while, Wen Xin said to Wu'er beside him, "Go ahead and ask him everything he knows."

Hearing that the emperor and the guards who were in charge of interrogating the dead all looked at Yun'er in disbelief, asking the little girl to interrogate the prisoner, she was not joking.

Shangguan Ming heard Wen Xin talk about Lu'er's ability, which is a very miraculous ability.

An Yi and the others stared at Lu'er carefully, and Lu'er walked up to the dead man step by step, and the dead man looked up at Lu'er, his eyes full of disdain.

Lu'er untied the ribbon covering her eyes with her hands, and the moment her evil purple eyes looked at the dead man, the dead man suddenly relaxed.

After a while, the dead man began to struggle violently, and the corner of Lu'er's mouth raised a disdainful arc. This kind of willpower wanted to resist her charm, it was wishful thinking.

The color of the purple eyes began to deepen, and after a few breaths, the dead man's eyes were empty, looking at Yun'er without any focus.

"What's your name?" The voice was ghostly and empty, as if from hell.

Except for Wen Xin, everyone in the dungeon was stunned by the voice. After regaining their senses, everyone was frightened and afraid. If life and death were at stake, this kind of stupor would pay for their lives.

At this time, no one dared to underestimate the teenage Lu'er.

"Number five." The dead man's hoarse voice sounded in the dungeon.

"Who is your master?"

"do not know."

"Who is the person who ordered you?"

"Leader."

"Who is the leader?"

"do not know."

"Where do you usually go to deliver information?"

"The cold palace is authentic."

"How many associates are there in the palace, what are their names, and what kind of errands do they have?"

"I know eight of them, the eunuch in the laundry room..."

Lu'er asked the dead man an answer, and the guard who was in charge of the question took notes excitedly.

Shangguanxuan looked at Lu'er, then at Shangguanming.

Shangguan Ming seemed to know his worry and nodded to him. "I believe in Xin'er."

Wu'er was asked by Xin'er to follow, he believed her.

Hearing that the emperor ordered the hidden guards to arrest all the people mentioned by the dead man just now, they would rather kill the wrong ones than let them go.

As soon as the guards left, the emperor consulted with Wen Xin. "Could you let Miss Wu'er wait a little longer before interrogating the prisoner for me?"

Shangguanxuan thought of loving talents, if Lu'er could be used by him, there would be no traitors in the palace, and there would be great hope for peace in Yunguo.

Facing the hot eyes of the emperor, Wen Xin was a little frightened, and turned back to Yun'er's opinion. "Would you like to wait a little longer?" Although Wuhua asked Yun'er to follow her and let her order her around, she was not used to ordering others to do things as a master.

When she came to the dungeon before, she also asked Lu'er in advance, and she came together only after getting her consent.

Dirty nodded to Wen Xin, and everyone she looked at looked blank. Seeing this, Wen Xin had no choice but to tell her. "Blindfold."
