Xiao Yuchen led Wen Jin to the dungeon under the school grounds.
It turns out that the dungeon is hidden here, no wonder she has never discovered it.
Along the way, Xiao Yuchen remained sullen and silent.
"The prince has something on his mind? Where is my father-in-law from?" Wen Jin asked.
Xiao Yuchen suddenly stopped and looked at Wen Jin with heavy eyes.
"I will protect you and Yu'er...I will never allow anyone to harm you."
He looked at her with determination in his eyes.
Wen Jin was filled with doubts.
Who stimulated him? Why do you suddenly say such things?
In their position, so close to the supreme power... isn't it normal to be hated and plotted against?
Why does he seem to have been hit so hard that he even doubts his life?
He was born in an environment of intrigue, so he should have been used to it for a long time, right?
"Do you believe me?" Xiao Yuchen asked.
Wen Jin hasn't answered yet.
He smiled palely again, "No need to answer. Mutual trust is not something that can be said with words. I didn't do it well before."
After saying that, he walked forward again.
Wen Jin stared at his back and tilted his head... She followed him.
The two came to the dungeon.
The man who controlled the poisonous bees had already been stripped of his hat and tightly wrapped in clothes.
He was wearing only a pair of underwear, hanging loosely around his waist, and his limbs were tied to a rack in a large shape.
"Your Majesty, we caught poisonous bees. Poison Master Wu also prepared pollen." said the person in the execution room.
Wen Jin looked at several large poisonous bees in glass bottles, and then looked at the special pollen in another bottle...
Isn't this called "replying the other's way with the other's body"?
"Ah! No! Don't!"
The people in the execution room smeared special pollen on the man's body and were about to release the poisonous bees when the man finally panicked and screamed in panic.
"No?" Xiao Yuchen sneered, "Okay, tell me about your business? Who sent you here? What's the purpose of sending you here?"
The man looked at the poisonous bee and couldn't help but tremble even though he was tied up with a large font.
It seems that he is very aware of the power of this poisonous bee.
"I take people's money to do things for them! This Poison Master was captured by you, and the people who entrusted him to treat poisons were afraid that the matter would be exposed, so they asked me to get rid of the Poison Master...
"The money given was quite large, and I just collected a batch of poisonous bees, so I thought, try the power of these poisonous bees, just in time to get rid of the poison master... kill two birds with one stone!
"Who would have thought...that I would actually fall into trouble..."
He glanced at Xiao Yuchen and Wen Jin, then looked at the poisonous bee, his limbs trembling, "Don't, don't open the lid, this thing is very poisonous and can kill someone within a moment."
"Take people's money and do things for them?"
Xiao Yuchen said, "Who was the person who met you before you were arrested?"
The man glanced at Xiao Yuchen and said, "Wang, Wangye... my rule is not to inquire about my employer's affairs.
"If someone wants something, I will give them a quote. If the deal can be made, the deal will be made. If not, no questions will be asked... It's not that I won't tell you, I really don't know!"
Xiao Yuchen nodded, "Oh. Open it."
Upon hearing this, the subordinates were about to open the cork lid of the glass bottle.
"Let's go out." Xiao Yuchen turned around and took Wen Jin away.
"Hey, don't, don't..."
"I don't know anything. There's no point in keeping him. Let him taste the taste of poisonous bees."
The man screamed, "Although I don't know who he is, I know something else! I really know!"
"He is the eunuch of the inner palace! I also specialize in eunuch trading!
"The eunuchs in the palace often bring some things with them. Their things have the word 'imperial' on them, so pawnshops dare not accept them.
"I only collect their stuff. I have a market! Once I get to know them well, I will sell them stuff too.
"What they want, they will tell me in advance. They agree on a time and place, pay for it and deliver it!"
"The eunuch I met with today ordered a highly toxic poison sac from me a while ago. The poison sac was made by Tuo Wu Poison Master.
"It was precisely because of this matter that he came to me again and asked me to silence the Poison Master... I didn't want to agree, because the risk was too high.
"But he gave me a lot of money. After I did this, I won't have to worry about it for the rest of my life. I'm ready to wash my hands of myself after doing this..."
Wen Jin looked at Xiao Yuchen.
He didn't feel any less relaxed because of the content of this man's confession.
On the contrary, his expression became more and more serious.
"The eunuchs in the palace... So the palace people steal the things created by the palace, and you help them sell the stolen goods?" Xiao Yuchen said.
"Also... not all of them were stolen. Some of them were given to them by their masters. But if they need cash, they will take it out and exchange it for silver." The man said urgently.
Xiao Yuchen lowered his gaze and said, "Tell me about the person in the palace today."
"I really don't know...don't let go, don't let go!
"His surname is Wan. I only know that he is the eunuch of the inner palace empress. I really don't know anything else!"
The man was so frightened that he peed.
He wasn't afraid when he used poisonous bees to kill people, but now that he was about to die under poisonous bees, he was so afraid?
Xiao Yuchen seemed to have asked what he wanted to ask.
He opened the cork and released the poisonous bees.
"Ah, no……"
The man screamed.
The venomous bees were attracted by the special pollen, ignored the other people in the cell, and pounced on that person.
Several poisonous wasps lay on him.
This venomous wasp is very big and really scary. A venomous bee is about the size of an adult’s thumb.
The poisonous needle was like a slightly curved hook, suddenly piercing into his flesh. After the poisonous wasp's venom penetrated his flesh, it entered his blood.
"Ah, ah..."
The man let out a shrill scream.
"If you harm others, you will harm yourself. Please forgive me in the next life." Xiao Yuchen said coldly.
Xiao Yuchen took Wen Jin away.
Wen Jin walked out of the cell door and turned back curiously.
"Hiss..." She gasped.
I saw that the man's body was like a burn, with large herpes appearing one after another quickly.
The poisonous bee stings the skin and spreads to other places.
"Don't look." Xiao Yuchen held Wen Jin's wrist and pulled her out of the dungeon quickly.
Wen Jin wanted to tell him that she was not afraid, she just didn't expect that this wasp was more poisonous than common poisonous wasps.
This poison is too overbearing. Before this person dies, he will be tortured by the poison. His whole body will be blistered... itchy and painful. What a torture.
She wanted to study this poison and its detoxification...
She raised her eyes and saw Xiao Yuchen's face so dark that it dripped with ink, and she closed her mouth and said nothing.
Until the two of them left the school grounds and walked on the quiet path to the guest room.
Xiao Yuchen whispered: "I don't know why...I can't figure it out either.
"The man from the palace we were following just now was indeed named Wan. I recognize him... he is... from the concubine's palace."
Wen Jin paused and looked at Xiao Yuchen suspiciously.
"You mean... Empress Shu?"
Xiao Yuchen frowned, but nodded slowly although he was extremely reluctant.
"Impossible, there must be a mistake somewhere." Wen Jin said immediately, "Why did Concubine Shu send death soldiers to kill me? Even if she doesn't like me being her daughter-in-law, she doesn't need to be friendly with me in person or behind my back. Take my life?"
Besides, doesn’t Concubine Shu like her?
The last time she came to Prince Huai's Mansion, Wen Jin felt that she really liked being her daughter-in-law!
"Besides, she tolerated me for the first six years without killing me. But now she suddenly can't tolerate me?" Wen Jin shook his head with a smile, "I don't believe it."
