Her Majesty, please kill me

Chapter 16 Yes, I'm just trying to lure a snake out of its hole【New book for collection, recommendation】

A crescent moon hangs sadly on the cornice of the palace.

In the prison of the Ministry of Justice, faces flickered under the flickering candlelight.

"Say, were you involved in the sudden death of fourteen prison guards?"

Chen Luo, the deputy director of the Anyu Division, kept a gloomy face, staring at the handsome man coldly.

"I don't know." Gu Nan said loudly, still maintaining an unusual calmness.

The situation is completely out of control.

Like a runaway wild horse, it rushes toward the abyss.

He thought that the seamless plan could not resist the impermanence of the world, and a single mistake could easily defeat him who was as weak as an ant.

But he couldn't break down and let fear take hold of him.

"You don't know?" Chen Luo's pupils were sharp, without concealing his anger, he said solemnly:
"Correction, Ling Chi's crime;"

"Assisting death row prisoners to escape from prison, capital crime;"

"Add the crime of massacring the fourteen nobles, and you will be notorious, and you will be cast aside by the people of Chu after your death."

"Director Chen, don't talk nonsense with him, use torture." A heaven-level scorpion was a little impatient, and if it dragged on, the scorpion would be incompetent.

It is obvious that the other party cannot be the murderer, so the only way to find out clues is to torture them, and then to analyze them.

"I want to see Your Majesty!"

Gu Nan didn't make any excuses, his eyes were fixed on the female officer in the corner of the lobby, the latter was expressionless.

"Bring it in." Chen Luo gave an order, and the slender scorpion held the white jade plate in his hand, on which a blood worm with thick fingers was wriggling.

Not the tools of torture such as knives, saws, axes and axe. These can at most inflict torture on the body, while blood worms will erode the soul, and then slowly gnaw away the human skin.

"Be honest and tell the whole story, so as not to suffer from flesh and blood. Since you are a mayfly, you should understand the power of the 'Punisher'."

Chen Luo approached step by step, condescendingly exerting pressure, trying to disintegrate the opponent's stubborn will.

Dissecting the corpse is the worst policy. Even if Gu poison or medicinal residue is found, it is difficult to dig out the caster. The most direct method is to interrogate and use clues to deduce.

No matter how tight the mouth is, it can be pried open.

If it weren't for the emergency, even a mysterious-level gnat would not be qualified to take the precious "criminal insect".

"I want to see Your Majesty, I want to see Your Majesty."

Gu Nan just repeated these five words.

In fact, no matter whether it is Chen Luo or the sky-level scorpion, they all carry more or less villain values, and they will not die if they are executed.

But he didn't want to suffer physically, and he was even more afraid of hurting his only concern. His sister-in-law worked hard to raise him, but she still wanted to be punished because of him.

"Hey him!" Chen Luo shouted angrily.

Chanting a spell in his mouth, the worm's body was full of blood, its wrinkled head swelled several times, and it flapped its wings and flew away, revealing its sharp fangs in the air.

suddenly.

"Your Majesty passed on an order to Gu Nan."

A eunuch in a boa robe stood silently in the corridor, his voice was hoarse and rapid.

Hey——Chen Luo recalled the torture insect to the jade plate, Chen Luo's face was gloomy, the execution was interrupted, it was really annoying, but how could he have the courage to be angry when facing His Majesty.

Gu Nan's spine felt chills, and the muscles on his face were shaking slightly. This sense of powerlessness in the flesh made him deeply understand what power and strength are.

violence.

He must master absolute violence.

……

In the main hall of the Ministry of Punishment, a phoenix skirt that dragged the floor stood quietly in front of the window, and the sound of crying and shouting sounded from the royal road in the distance.

Dozens of nobles carried lanterns in their hands and wailed, "The ancestors have made great contributions to the state of Chu, and the ancestors have shed blood for the state of Chu, but the descendants will die with regret."

"Your Majesty, I am innocent. Fearful of being held accountable and blamed by the honorable class, I was pushed out to attract anger."

As soon as Gu Nan entered the main hall, he stated frankly.

"Why should I trust you?" Xie Yanwan said coldly.

The female officials and eunuchs were all silent, Gu Nan was definitely not the murderer, he was incompetent and he was not present, but he did not rule out collusion with the murderer.

What a coincidence!

It just happened on the day he helped the death row prisoner escape, and it was difficult to clean up by jumping into the Yellow River.

The company has no clue so far, and can only let the suspect calm down the anger first.

"Your Majesty, I can die, but I must not die on unwarranted charges." Gu Nanji argued vigorously.

"Tell them." Xie Yanwan pointed to Xungui who fainted from crying in the distance, his eyes were cold:
"I will give you one last chance, why on earth did you release the death row prisoner?"

"Think carefully before answering."

The female officials stared at Gu Nan, really wondering why His Majesty indulged this man so much.

How many times have you been given a chance?
Minister of the Ministry of War of the first rank, your majesty will kill as soon as you say, last year a bloody purge was carried out, and the heads of important officials of the imperial court piled up like a mountain.

However, a mere black-ranked mayfly made His Majesty hesitate.

"I……"

Just as Gu Nan was about to speak, he just wanted to save his sister-in-law's life first.

But I heard the crowing of "coo coo coo" on the eaves, and a colorful pigeon jumped on the window sill, as if smelling the fragrance.

The python-robed eunuch paced forward, took off the note on the pigeon's leg and presented it to the empress.

Xie Yan Wanyu's cheeks were cold, he unfolded the note to browse, and his eyes turned to Gu Nan without warning.

Gu Nan's heart fell to the bottom. Could it be that the situation is going to become more out of control?
"You are so lucky." The noble empress walked gracefully, with a beautiful curve on the corners of her lips.

Looking at His Majesty's delicate chin raised slightly, all the female officials looked at each other, His Majesty was rarely so happy.

"On the border between Chu and Wei, Jiang Jin killed two third-rank protectors, seven fourth-rank hall masters, and countless minions from the Guangming Sect."

"I noticed a special rune imprint on a nun, which attracted her attention."

The empress was careless, her eyes flicked on Gu Nan's face.

Director Jiang, you are awesome... Gu Nan's heart was in a state of ups and downs, he never expected a turning point, this luck that he hates but delights.

Jiang Jin, the leader of the Panyu Division, the empress' confidant general, the daughter of the Jiang family in Wu County, climbed to the top of the third rank at the young age of 25, and is also a ruthless little devil.

"What are you laughing at?" Xie Yanwan's eyes turned cold, and he said coldly:

"Do you think you have made atonement? What does it have to do with you?"

"No!" Gu Nan looked at her, calmly said:
"Your Majesty, please check my body."

"Presumptuous!" the female officer scolded coquettishly, "An dare to be so disrespectful to His Majesty."

Gu Nan simply rolled up his sleeves, he had to get himself out of the "Fourteen Jailers' Violent Death Case".

A small tile appeared in his hand, with two drops of dried blood at the bottom.

Xie Yanwan's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and with her strength, it was already clear at a glance.

"So?" She lightly parted her red lips.

The boa-robed eunuch and the female officials all looked shocked.

It's the spell!

Could it be that he is seducing?

"Yes, I'm trying to lure a snake out of its hole." Gu Nan was calm, with an understatement.

He knew the reason. As the director of the Anyu Division and a top talisman drawer, Jiang Jin knew the death row prisoners who practiced talisman in purgatory like the back of their hands.

But Gu Nan obtained the talisman, and this familiar trace made Jiang Jin mistakenly believe that a prisoner had escaped from prison, so he chose to follow the nun and his party, and finally caught a few big fish.
