At the same time, Prince Rui’s Mansion was in the dungeon.
Originally, Liu Shengsheng wanted to go directly back to Liufang Pavilion to catch up on her sleep, but now that he was caught, she followed Bai Quan to his palace, and even used a True Heart Gu to interrogate the captured prisoners.
But after using the True Heart Gu, what the prisoner said was still useless.
Bai Quan stood outside the cell door with a helpless look, looked at Liu Shengsheng inside and said, "I have already said that they can't easily recruit the mastermind behind the scenes. The so-called don't know means they don't want to say it. It's better to use A little torture, severe torture, but it will be more useful."
Liu Shengsheng looked at the prisoner kneeling in front of her coldly, "Let me ask you one last time, are you sure you don't know who is instigating you behind the scenes?"
The man on the ground was probably in his early twenties. He kowtowed and said tremblingly: "Everything the common people said is true. It's really just that someone gave the common people a little money and forced them to do such treasonous things. As for the Who is that person? The people really have no idea!"
Bai Quan sneered, "I just took some silver. As for you gambling with your lives? How much silver should you have?"
The man on the ground said painfully: "One hundred taels each. The other party gave us fifty first and said they would give us another fifty after the matter was completed. Not only that, they also arrested our family members and threatened us with death if we were arrested." We must commit suicide immediately by taking poison, or bite our tongues to commit suicide. If we don't obey, they will kill our family members the moment we are captured. There is really no other way, so we will pay the price with our lives. If we can If so, we would rather not have the one hundred taels of silver, but also want our family to be safe!"
He burst into tears and kowtowed again after saying, "I and other ordinary people would never dare to do anything to harm the prince. If we are not forced to do so, how can we be so bold? But now our family members are probably already I am really in pain and pain when I encounter an accident..."
Obviously he didn't want to tell his true feelings, he just wanted to beg for mercy and die, but for some reason, every word of begging for mercy revealed what was in his heart, which really made him miserable.
He said painfully: "No, I'm not dead now. My family's life must be hanging by a thread. I can't live, I can't live anymore..."
After saying that, he suddenly got up from the ground and without saying a word, banged his head against the wall not far away.
He rushed over suddenly, and the great force immediately knocked out his head, causing blood to flow out. As her body staggered and fell to the ground, Liu Shengsheng recovered slightly.
I have to say that the man was too impulsive. Liu Shengsheng didn't even expect that he would suddenly hit the wall. When she reacted, Bai Quan had already rushed in and pulled her out, "How is it? Are you okay?"
Liu Shengsheng shook her head blankly, "It's okay..."
Bai Quan clenched his fists, "If you want to die, I will die. I scared you before dying. This person is so audacious! It's best that his family is really caught. If not, I will go to hold him accountable!"
He finally made up his mind, but the man's strength almost knocked him to death, and he fell to the ground without moving...
Liu Shengsheng murmured: "What he said is true. He really doesn't know the person behind it..."
Bai Quan looked back at her and said: "These people are all cunning and cunning, and they lie constantly. You don't need to believe them. They are just pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy! Since he wants to die, let him die in there... "
"No, I know how to find out who's behind it!"
Liu Shengsheng suddenly frowned and said word by word: "Almost all those who incited emotions on the streets this time are ordinary people, and ordinary people are the easiest to investigate. If you do a little research, you should be able to find out. If we know the family background of these people and the number of people in their families, if their families are really arrested, then there will definitely be no news. As long as we investigate, we will be able to find out something."
Bai Quan narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"
"As long as we can find out who kidnapped their family members, we can be sure who is secretly against you. If it's just some ordinary forces, we can directly solve them at once, one less person. Enemies are less troublesome, but if the person behind you has a noble status and is a strong enemy, you need to prepare in advance and be more careful about them in the future."
Liu Shengsheng's tone was very serious, but Bai Quan obviously didn't believe what the man said.
Liu Shengsheng said again: "I have said so, you still don't believe me, right?"
"Believe it, of course I believe what you say."
Bai Quan nodded quickly. Although he really didn't believe it in his heart, he still ordered the men around him to say: "Now let me go down to investigate and see if the people arrested this time and the people at home are real." If you are caught, don’t make any noise after you find out, and follow the clues. I want to see who is trying so hard to cause trouble for me!”
"yes!"
"..."
By the time they left the dungeon, Liu Shengsheng was already very sleepy, and Bai Quan also yawned several times. He immediately ordered people to clean up the guest room for Liu Shengsheng to rest, while he himself went back to the palace to have a comfortable sleep.
When I woke up, it was midnight.
Liu Shengsheng fell asleep in a daze, and all the strength in her body seemed to be drained away.
Only then did she realize that she had slept for too long.
It was only dusk when I went to bed, but it was already midnight when I woke up...
It was late at night and everyone was probably asleep. It was really confusing and frustrating.
Suddenly feeling the sound of footsteps outside, Liu Shengsheng frowned. She wanted to ask, but then she remembered that she was in Prince Rui's palace, so she relaxed her guard again.
After lying on the bed for a while, she lazily got up.
If you continue to sleep at this point, it will obviously be impossible to fall asleep, but it is still dark at this time, and there is nothing to do if you go out...
I don’t know if Bai Quan has woken up.
He went to bed at the same time as me, so he would probably wake up in the middle of the night, right?
"Trash, after so long, I have only recovered this little. What use does this king want from you?"
The sudden sound confirmed Liu Shengsheng's thoughts. It seemed that Bai Quan had woken up and was still doing something serious.
She gently opened the door, and through the dim moonlight, she could faintly see some fire not far away.
It seemed that many people were holding lanterns and talking, and in the dim light, Bai Quan's tall and straight figure was particularly conspicuous.
I saw him standing in front of a group of soldiers, saying something at the moment...
"Why are you still standing there? Keep looking!"
