"This guy is very tight-lipped, and he won't even bother him if his leg is broken."
A faint smile appeared on Xiao Beiye's lips, "Put away your bloody whip. It's useless to torture people like them."
He slowly squatted in front of the man, stared into his cloudy eyes and said: "I will not torture you. If you don't tell who is behind the scenes, I will imprison you in the deepest dark room of this dungeon." .
There is no light there, you are alone in a small and dark space, there is no morning or dusk, no sound, you cannot do anything, and no one can say a word to you.
Not for a day, not for a month, not for a year, I will imprison you for a lifetime, until you die.
But I am also a reasonable person, so you can think about whether you want to recruit him. I count five numbers. If you want to recruit him, say his name.
Five—four—three…”
"Yes... His Highness King Wen." The man was as angry as a gossamer and had mixed blood foam in his mouth, but Xiao Beiye could still hear him clearly.
"Keep him alive, don't let him die." Xiao Beiye ordered with the cold smile on his lips.
He had long thought that it was Xiao Beilin. There had never been any family ties between the princes, but the sixth brother treated him differently. Now he reciprocated the favor, and no one could hurt his sixth brother in the slightest.
When he told Xiao Beichen that Xiao Beilin was the one behind the scenes, Xiao Beichen was not surprised, but his expression suddenly dropped, "It's useless to keep that man in the dungeon, kill him, I have my own way to deal with Xiao Beilin."
Xiao Beiye was a little puzzled, and then he didn't click on the passage: "That's right, even if it is confirmed that he ordered people to release poisonous snakes in Prince Yi's Mansion, it did not cause any damage. At most, my father only punished him with a small punishment and a big warning, which could not hurt Xiao Beilin's foundation. .”
The next day in the main hall, Xiao Beichen ordered his cronies to submit a letter to the governor of Anqing for embezzling tens of millions of government relief funds. Floods in the disaster area left the victims homeless, without food or clothing. It was very pitiful. He asked the emperor to investigate and punish corrupt officials severely. Common people are angry.
"Father, if a mere governor has no backing, how dare he embezzle huge amounts of disaster relief funds? I suggest that we get to the bottom of it, find out the people behind him, and eradicate the Northern Ming Borer completely."
When Xiao Beiye said this, everyone was in an uproar. No one knew that the Anqing governor was a member of King Wen Xiao Beilin, and the impeachment petition was directed at Xiao Beilin.
Emperor Ming was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. After it was found that the situation was true, Governor Song Qing was dismissed from office and beheaded. What made Emperor Ming even more distressed was that he actually found a banknote with a disaster relief seal in Xiao Beilin's study.
As a beloved concubine, his mother died tragically and he was dismissed from his post and grounded. Xiao Beilin was extremely depressed.
…
Prime Minister's Mansion.
Ever since Luo Zhiyi faked her death and escaped, Mrs. Sun was in a state of despair every day and shed tears. Prime Minister Luo became more and more bored with her bitter face and avoided her.
Mrs. Sun had a lot of resentment towards Prime Minister Luo, but she had no choice but to beg him for this matter.
She stood at the door of the main courtyard and took a deep breath before walking in. Prime Minister Luo frowned, "Why are you here?"
"I heard that King Wen was grounded..." Mrs. Sun's words came to her lips and she didn't know what to say. She knelt down in front of Prime Minister Luo and burst into tears.
Prime Minister Luo was stunned and puzzled. Even when his eldest daughter Luo Zhiyi died unexpectedly, he didn't see Mrs. Sun crying so sadly, "Why are you crying when King Wen is banned?"
He couldn't bear it anymore and watched her kneeling here, sobbing bitterly, and cursed again: "If you have something to say, just say it. If you don't want to say it, get out. Don't stay here endlessly like mourning."
Ms. Sun forced herself to calm down and said with a sad face: "Master, in fact Zhiyi is not dead: she just escaped from Prince Wen's Mansion..."
Prime Minister Luo was shocked, "What do you mean by this? She faked her death? This will bring trouble to the Prime Minister's Palace. She was the one who first seduced King Wen. Why did she run away when she got married to Prince Wen's Palace as she wished?"
"This..." Mrs. Sun felt timid and did not dare to tell Luo Zhiyi that she was pregnant with a human race. She could only mumble, "What good is it for these two sisters to serve the same husband together? I also know it. That girl Yiran is not easy to get along with, and she is also weak..."
"Nonsense!" Prime Minister Luo was furious, "Now you think it's not good for two sisters to share one husband? What's more, she is pregnant with the eldest grandson! Where is she? Send her back to Prince Wen's Mansion quickly."
Prime Minister Luo's eyes showed a fierce look, which made Mrs. Sun dare not look directly at her. She sat down on the ground, lowered her head and said repeatedly: "No, sir, I know that the child in my belly has been lost. It will not be easy to go back." of."
"This is the good daughter you raised! She has to go back to Prince Wen's Mansion if she dies." Prime Minister Luo's face became ferocious with anger.
Sun's head buzzed. She had always known that Prime Minister Luo was selfish, but she didn't expect him to do this.
What? You want to go back to Prince Wen's Mansion even if your biological daughter dies?
Sun Shi stood up suddenly and said, "I, Sun Yuniang, have a straightforward character. If you don't care about your daughter's safety, I, as a mother, cannot ignore it.
Let's make a deal. King Wen has realized that he was suspicious and knowingly cheated his way out of the house, and is secretly looking for her. While King Wen is grounded, you can help me save my daughter, and I can help you stabilize your position as prime minister. How about that? "
Prime Minister Luo was silent, looked at Sun's firm look and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I plan to send Zhiyi to Xiwan. I have heard that the war in Xiwan is about to end, and there is an aunt there who can take care of her. As long as she goes there and changes her identity, she can start her life again..."
There was even a trace of hope on Sun's face. She felt that her plan was flawless and flawless.
"What kind of sweet dream are you having?" Prime Minister Luo stopped her with a wave of his sleeve, "Have you forgotten how you and your daughter poisoned the third prince and Yun Chu?
Although you didn't succeed and were counterattacked, you now want to go to Siwan and ask people to help you regardless of past grudges. How is this possible? Are you stupid? "
Sun's face darkened, and she knelt on the ground and begged: "Please find a way to save Zhiyi!
I have a distant niece who is 80% similar in appearance to the late Concubine Lu, even more so than Concubine De. She has just grown hair this year. I can dedicate her to the Emperor to consolidate your position in the court. "
Prime Minister Luo stretched out his hand to help Sun up, "Are they really similar?"
"It's absolutely true." Mrs. Sun looked at him expectantly.
"Send Luo Zhiyi to Nan Qi. I have friends there," Prime Minister Luo frowned and continued, "Go to Nan Qi and change her identity. Whether she lives or dies, she will be left to the prime minister's house again." If she adds to the mess, I won’t clean up the mess for her anymore.”
Prime Minister Luo's words of "life or death are determined by fate" filled Sun's mind with a cloud of blood. Her poor daughter, that's all she can do now. I hope her Yi'er can be strong and live a good life.
"Yes, thank you, Master!" Mrs. Sun knocked her head on the ground with a "thud" sound. It really hurt!
