The person who came was none other than the old man who appeared at Yingzui Stream with Ni Yaoer that day.
"Auntie, I can't just watch him die, absolutely not!"
Ni Yao'er burst into tears and knelt on the ground fiercely.
"You, you!"
The old man sighed, "Since ancient times, love has been the most difficult thing to overcome. You have fallen in love with him."
Ni Yaoer lowered his head and remained silent.
The old man looked at her distressedly, "Do you know who you are falling in love with? Today's emperor has been the most ruthless since ancient times. If you fall in love with him, you will be trapped by love and him for the rest of your life. If he discovers your identity, none of us will be able to escape death."
Ni Yao'er shook his head, "No, he is a kind and righteous person. He will not harm me, nor will he harm all of us."
The old man sighed again, "The most ruthless emperor's family, you stupid boy, how can you fall in love with the emperor today?"
"good!"
"That's all!"
"Go ahead and save him one more time. Don't stay in Dafeng anymore. I'll take you back."
Ni Yao'er kowtowed deeply and said in a mosquito-like voice, "Okay."
at the same time.
Internal surveillance experts and plainclothes dragoons launched a search in the capital of Jiangnan Province, especially looking at restaurants and casinos that might have underground spaces. They almost searched, but they still found nothing.
Ye Qingluan was impatient, his phoenix eyes were blood red, "I don't believe it, the poisonous Gu mother worm can fly into the sky!"
"Look, keep looking, even if you turn the world upside down, you have to look for it!"
"If we can't find it again, you two don't come back!"
"No!" Cao Qingyan and Suo Yi kowtowed together.
Looking at their leaving figures, Ye Qingluan sighed softly. Searching blindly like this is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and you must look for it in a targeted manner.
Suddenly, her phoenix eyes flashed, "Call them back quickly."
Cao Qingyan and Suo Yi, who had just escaped, ran back again confused.
Ye Qingluan asked them, "Has your Majesty ever captured the Zheng family?"
"Yes!" Cao Qingyan replied.
"Where is the person?" Ye Qingluan asked hurriedly.
Cao Qingyan replied: "I've gone back, to the Zheng family in the southwest. He is a direct descendant of the Zheng family, Zheng Yunze's younger brother Zheng Yunfei."
Ye Qingluan suddenly lowered his head, "Is there no one else?"
At this time, Suo Yi suddenly said, "Madam, there is another person named Wu Chun. He used to be the housekeeper of Prince Shou's mansion. He was the agent of Zheng Yunze who was placed in Prince Shou's mansion. He can also be regarded as a member of the Zheng family and some minions. "
"Where is this Wu Chun? Didn't he also send him away?" Ye Qingluan asked.
"He is not. He is still alive and is being held in the internal prison dungeon." Cao Qingyan replied.
"Okay, take me to see him." Ye Qingluan said solemnly.
Cao Qingyan reminded: "Madam, please think about it carefully. This boy is like a stone in a latrine. He is smelly, hard, and very difficult to deal with. He is a die-hard loyalist of the Zheng family. Until now, the old slave has used all methods to deal with it. I used it, but he just refused to speak.”
Ye Qingluan nodded and smiled, his sharp phoenix eyes filled with murderous intent, "I want to see how tough he is!"
Inside the prison dungeon.
This is the home base of the Jiangnan Province Internal Machinery Supervision Bureau, where Xuanwu, one of the four major commanders, sits.
Anyone caught here is definitely not guilty of a minor crime, and at the very least, they are intending to rebel!
And Wu Chun, the old dog, is one of them.
After the last rebellion failed and he was captured alive by Cao Qingyan, he was captured here.
Under the systematic torture, the old dog still kept his mouth shut and remained silent.
"ah!"
Every day Wu Chun made a shrill scream on time. This was his daily compulsory lesson.
"explain!"
"Where is the Zheng family's stronghold in Jiangnan Province, who will contact it, and how to contact it, tell me quickly!"
"Say it!"
An internal machine surveillance master held a boning knife in his hand, grabbed Wu Chun's hair, and asked angrily.
"I... don't know, I don't know anything." Wu Chun's whole body has long been turned into a bloody man, the blood on his face has solidified, and there is not an inch of good flesh on his body.
Due to the torture he suffered, he had become extremely thin and even looked a little dry. His body could not suppress convulsions and tremors.
"Say it!" The master of the internal machine surveillance pierced his flesh and blood with a boning knife, and angrily shouted: "You still dare to quibble, and you will get both the stolen goods and the stolen goods, and you still won't tell me!"
"If you don't say anything, don't blame me for having you executed in Lingchi!"
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything!" Wu Chun said suddenly.
"Say!" The master of internal machine monitoring looked happy. This old dog finally spit out his words. This was a great achievement.
Thinking about it, no good person can withstand such torture. Even Iron Man has become weak. No matter who he is, he can't survive so many days.
It's good now, the old dog finally spits out.
"In...in..." Wu Chun's lips trembled and his voice was weak.
The internal machine surveillance expert approached and asked, "Where is the stronghold?"
"In the sky." Wu Chun said seriously, and then he sneered wildly, his eyes full of contempt for the master of internal machine monitoring.
Outside the dungeon, Cao Qingyan, Suo Yi and Xuanwu all stood solemnly.
In front of them, Ye Qingluan, dressed in military uniform, looked coldly at everything in the dungeon.
Although he didn't say a word, the killing intent on his body was extremely fierce.
She slowly turned her head and looked around. Wherever she looked, Cao Qingyan and the others all shrank their necks in guilt.
"What can you tell me by asking this question?"
"The five fingers are connected to the heart. Let me drive steel nails into his five fingers and see how he can bear it!"
Hearing this, even Xuanwu was startled.
Unexpectedly, the empress, who seemed to be virtuous and virtuous, and who was famous for her kindness, turned out to be so powerful.
Give an order.
Two internal machine surveillance masters used half-meter-long steel needles to pierce five of Wu Chun's fingers alive. The steel needles pierced his nails bit by bit, and slowly penetrated deeper. Blood spurted out, which was shocking.
Wu Chun also cooperated and let out heart-rending screams. He fainted several times and was forcibly revived several times.
One finger after another, repeating this action.
In order to increase the pain, the two internal machine monitoring experts were asked by Ye Qingluan to slow down and shake the steel needle every time they advanced a little.
Ten fingers connect to the heart, this statement is true!
The pain was simply beyond the punishment of a branding iron or whipping.
Wu Chun was enjoying this horrific torture until he spoke.
"puff!"
Another steel needle pierced the nail.
Wu Chun raised his head and let out a shrill scream. He was in so much pain that his withered face kept twisting and deforming.
But even so, Wu Chun still refused to say anything, and his tenacity even amazed the masters of internal surveillance.
Ye Qingluan lowered his eyes and sighed secretly, "The Zheng family is indeed the best family in the world, and the dead men in their family live up to their reputation as dead men. I have learned this lesson."
Cao Qingyan, Suo Yi and Xuanwu all knelt down and said tremblingly: "I am incompetent, please forgive me!"
"Walk!"
After walking out of the dungeon, Ye Qingluan moved his wrist and a long sword came out of its sheath.
The edge of the sword is sharp, and the edge of the sword is filled with cold light.
Hit the ground hard.
Just listen to a loud "bang".
The floor tiles shattered.
This move frightened several people present.
They looked at each other, but didn't dare to speak.
"You are all His Majesty's confidants. I will not hide some things from you. Your Majesty is not awake yet."
"Even Li Yichuan can only delay the poisonous insects from invading His Majesty's body. The only way to cure it is to find the mother insect. There is only two days."
"After two days, if the location of the female insect is no longer found, it will be destroyed. Your Majesty will..."
Upon hearing this, Cao Qingyan and the others were immediately shocked and fell to their knees.
"Empress, give us some time. If you can't find her again, we'll come and meet you!"
"Yes, my dear, if you can't find it again, I will cut off my head first."
"..."
Ye Qingluan lowered his head and shed tears without saying a word.
After a long time, he said: "Looking, continue to search for me, no matter what etiquette or criminal law, we must find the mother worm no matter what!"
"promise!"
Everyone yelled and left in a panic.
Everyone present looked extremely ugly. They never expected that the matter had reached this point and that His Majesty was actually in fear of his life!
Ye Qingluan's tears were like streams in the mountains, gurgling down his handsome cheeks. He wiped them gently, got up and walked towards the door.
Just as he was about to mount his horse, a sudden chill hit his face.
She subconsciously bent down to avoid it and quickly unsheathed the sword.
"boom!"
An arrow shot through the air.
