The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 390
Wang Wenqian arrested his confidant, but did not use torture to interrogate him. How is this possible?

The Cui family and the Wang family have been fighting openly and secretly for decades. They usually grasp each other's small tricks, and they also want to punish each other to death.

With such a good opportunity now, how could Wang Wenqian not try to find some secrets out of Liu Yang's mouth?

If it were him, he would definitely torture him to make the other party spit out all the secrets.

Therefore, Liu Yang fell into Wang Wenqian's hands and was able to come back safe and sound. It was clear that Wang Wengan had already obtained the answer he wanted.

However, Liu Yang said that he didn't tell Wang Wengan anything, which is clearly a lie.

How dare you lie to him!
The more Cui Quan thought about it, the angrier he became, and he slapped his palm on the table. He wanted to teach Liu Yang a lesson, but he stopped suddenly.

No, he can't expose Liu Yang now, otherwise he will startle the snake.
So, under the surprised or terrified eyes of several people, Cui Quan took advantage of the situation and cursed: "Wang Wengan, this arrogant kid, dares to break into my house and rob me. I will definitely make him look good."

After saying that, he walked up to Liu Yang, and gently patted Liu Yang's shoulder: "I'd rather die than surrender, you have the strength of character of my Cui family, good job.

"However, today's incident also exposed the problems in the mansion, and the defense is still too weak."

Cui Quan let go of his hand and walked back to his seat: "Bai Qi, Liu Yang, you redeploy the guards in the mansion, I don't want any more assassins in the mansion."

Bai Qi only felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy, and he respectfully accepted the order: "Yes."

Liu Yang was ecstatic. He originally thought that the assassin would deliberately not hurt him, and the Duke would suspect him, but he never expected that the Duke would trust him as always, and still entrust the defense of the palace to him and Bai Qi.

"Yes." There was excitement in Liu Yang's voice.

Cui Quan secretly winked at Bai Qi, then waved his hand again: "Go."

The two left the study immediately.

When only father and son were left in the study, Cui Quan sat down sullenly and cursed "Damn it".

Although the phrase "hateful" was not named, Cui Yongzong noticed his father's thoughts.

He went to make a cup of hot tea and handed it to his father: "Father, please calm down."

Cui Quan took the teacup and took a sip.

"Father, are you suspicious of Liu Yang?" Seeing his father reaching out his hand, Cui Yongzong quickly took the teacup and put it aside.

After taking a sip of tea, the anger in Cui Quan's heart has subsided a lot, but his face is still ugly: "Wang Wengan has never been polite to my people.

"Liu Yang was able to retreat unscathed, not only because Wang Wengan wanted me to save Wang Dalang and had to let Liu Yang go, but also because he got what he wanted from Liu Yang.

"Maybe not all, but it's an important part."

Cui Yongzong didn't answer, because he thought so too.

But after pondering for a while, Cui Yongzong said again: "Father, do you think that all this is Wang Wengan's deliberate mystification?"

Seeing his father looking over with doubts on his face, Cui Yongzong explained: "Maybe what Liu Yang said is true, he didn't say anything, Wang Wengan didn't know anything, he just exchanged Liu Yang for Wang Dalang's peace.

"And he deliberately didn't hurt Liu Yang, just to make us suspect Liu Yang and cut off his own arm."

Cui Quan was stunned for a moment, but the next moment, he showed contempt: "Wang Wengan is a reckless man, so he has such resourcefulness?"

Not always.Cui Yongzong answered in his heart.

Seeing that his son didn't answer, Cui Quan seriously thought about the possibility, but in the end he still felt that it was impossible: "Wang Wenqian once told me that if I don't hand over the murderer and let Wang Dalang return home safely, he will give away the secrets of Cui's house. It is well known.

"He didn't look like a liar at the time, he must have gotten some secrets from Liu Yang."

Cui Yongzong was silent.

He wasn't there at the time, so he didn't know what his father and Wang Wengan talked about, but his father naturally had his reasons for saying this.

"Then what should we do now?" Cui Yongzong asked along the way.

Cui Quan thought for a while and ordered: "You send people to secretly watch the people in the palace, and I will know their every move.

"Also, pay attention to the movement of each city gate."

After listening to the instructions, Cui Yongzong immediately went to deploy.

On the other side, after Bai Qi helped Liu Yang out of the study, Liu Yang broke free from Bai Qi's hand: "Commander, I'm fine now, let's go to your room to discuss the defense of the mansion."

Bai Qi smiled slightly and said: "Yesterday, after the Duke returned from the Prince Regent's Mansion, he personally made the arrangements and transferred some guards from Zhuangzi.

"Those guards entered the mansion early this morning, and the uncle has also made arrangements, we just need to strengthen inspections.

"Doctor Chen said that you still have drugs left in your body, and your body hasn't recovered yet. You should go back to your room and take a good rest, and leave this matter to me."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to "support" Liu Yang to move forward without any refusal.

Liu Yang was forced to follow Bai Qi forward, but his heart couldn't stop sinking.

Although Bai Qi is the commander of the guards and his status is higher than him, usually the two of them are like brothers, they speak frankly and never beat around the bush.

But just now, Bai Qi's smile was a bit forced, and his words were not straightforward, obviously he was guarding against him.

He is the deputy commander of the guards, and he is also the confidant of the Duke, if there is no order from the Duke, Bai Qi would not be able to treat him like this.

The Duke of the State has already suspected him.

Realizing this, Liu Yang felt very wronged. He had been loyal to the Duke for decades, and he went through life and death for the Duke, but he did not expect that once kidnapped, the Duke would start to suspect him.

As long as there are seeds of doubt in the Duke's heart, it will be difficult to eliminate.

Liu Yang was very disappointed and terrified. He had been with the Duke for decades, and knew very well what would happen to those who were suspected by the Duke.

He will also be one of them.
"arrive."

Bai Qi let go of his hand, and lightly patted Liu Yang's shoulder: "Have a good rest."

After speaking, he turned and left.

Liu Yang stared at his back for a while, then pushed open the door and walked in.

He walked slowly to the bed, lay down, closed his eyes and thought about the way forward.

In the dead of night, Su Biwen sneaked into the wing room where he met last time alone, unexpectedly Cui Hengyue and Mrs. Wen had been waiting for him in the wing room for a long time.

"What did Wang Wengan say?" Su Biwen walked up to them and asked impatiently before he could sit down.

Cui Hengyue was also unambiguous, and told Su Biwen exactly what Wang Wengan said.

"This is the list of generals who testified against your grandfather." Cui Hengyue took out the list from his sleeve and handed it to Su Biwen.

Mrs. Wen got close, took a second look, and saw a few familiar names from above.

Su Biwen couldn't wait to take the list and looked at it seriously.

After reading it, he couldn't help clenching his fists: "These people are hateful!"

Those generals were all his grandfather's cronies, no wonder Emperor Taizu closed the case so easily.

"They are lying. It is absolutely impossible for my grandfather to betray the court and the people." Su Biwen clutched the list tightly.

Mrs. Wen understood how he was feeling now, but she couldn't say anything to comfort her, she just said: "It's useless for you to believe it, and it's useless for us to believe it.

"Evidence must be found to prove General Su's innocence, otherwise the case will never be overturned"
