From Princess of the Cold Palace to Empress of Heaven

Hearing this, Wang Jin said respectfully:

"As ordered!"

67. Serious torture, great love without bounds

These two short words, to General Li's ears, were like a spell to remind him of his life.

He knew that the eunuchs had innumerable means of tormenting people, such as "breathless", "sudden roar", "dead pig worry" and other horrible punishments. Once tortured, it would be more uncomfortable to live than to die.

Think of this section.

General Li was terrified and his face turned pale.

Seeing the change in his expression, Xiao Minghuang continued:

"Even if you don't tell me, I know who sent you here."

"The second prince sent your accomplice, that is, the assassin from the Divine Sea Realm during the day, to kill me, but he missed."

"At the moment when your accomplices attacked you, you witnessed all of this, so you also had a murderous intent in your heart, but it happened to be noticed by me, so I invited you into the urn tonight!"

"Is what I said correct?"

Hearing these words, General Li was shocked. Although these analyzes were somewhat discrepant, the facts were probably not wrong.

At first, it was someone from the capital who came to him and took out a token, claiming to be a close friend of King Wu'an, and this trip was to assassinate the Ninth Princess Xiao Minghuang.

And he, in fact, is a secret agent who has been lurking in Beiyang City for a long time, and his real identity is the second prince.

So the two hit it off immediately, and he helped the assassin obtain a Beast Controlling Order from the Beast Controlling Sect, and assisted him in triggering a wave of beasts, so as to achieve the goal of assassinating Xiao Minghuang in the chaos.

This plan kills two birds with one stone. First, it can kill Xiao Minghuang, and second, it can blame the Beast Emperor Sect and separate the relationship.

But what I didn't expect was that the assassination that should have been successful failed.

General Li gave Xiao Minghuang a look of resentment, and immediately closed his eyes and said nothing.

Seeing that he refused to speak, Xiao Minghuang's patience finally ran out, and he said lightly:

"Wang Gonggong, this person is entrusted to you. Before dawn, I want to know all the truth from his mouth."

Hearing this, a trace of cruelty flashed across Wang Jin's eyes. Since he was promoted to the Divine Sea Realm, he has not done such dirty work himself for a long time, so that he almost forgot the taste of inflicting severe punishment on others. Today, he just used this person in front of him to recall his youth. !

"Boy, let's go with the miscellaneous family!"

The voice fell.

With a wave of Wang Jin's sleeve, General Li was swept away.

As the criminals were captured, Lin Zhengquan also led the guards to plead guilty and quit.

In the attic, calm down.

Lin Wanqiu stepped forward, stepped forward, sighed softly, and said helplessly:

"Your Highness, this move of yours really scared people."

Xiao Minghuang leaned on the waist pillow, while stroking Ye Ruoshui's small head, and said with a soft smile:

"What are you panicking about, everything is within my expectations."

Ye Ruoshui twisted her body, raised her face, and asked Jiaohan:

"Your Highness, what did you and Sister Lin secretly do?"

Before Xiao Minghuang could reply, Lin Wanqiu interrupted:

"Ruoshui, please tell Your Highness well. She was injured so badly, and she used her own safety as a bait to lure her to attack at this moment. There is nothing wrong now. If His Highness is really hurt, and there is something wrong, that's okay. What should I do?"

Hearing Lin Wanqiu's words, Ye Ruoshui also frowned, and there was a trace of blame in her beautiful big eyes.

But facing Xiao Minghuang's innocent and gentle expression, he finally couldn't bear to say any accusations, so he just said something dry.

"Your Highness, don't do this in the future."

Xiao Minghuang immediately responded obediently:

"My sister knew she was wrong."

Hearing this, Ye Ruoshui immediately beamed with joy, spread out her arms, and got into Xiao Minghuang's arms, buried her small face in her chest, and kept rubbing against her.

"Ruoshui likes Your Highness the most!"

Xiao Minghuang didn't know why Ye Ruoshui suddenly confessed, it might be because she was injured suddenly during the day, which frightened the little girl.

She gently stroked the little girl's back, and comforted her softly:

"My sister also likes Ruoshui the most, she won't leave Ruoshui, don't worry."

Seeing this scene, Lin Wanqiu, who was standing by the side, rarely felt any jealousy.

If it was the past, when she saw Xiao Minghuang and Ye Ruoshui getting so close, she would definitely feel sour and jealous.

But in this scene at the moment, she only felt a sense of warmth.

just like.

Really naughty sister, and then act like a baby to the gentle sister.

Lin Wanqiu couldn't bear to destroy this harmonious scene, so she didn't make any sound, just sat quietly by the side.

After getting along for a period of time, she had a deeper understanding of Xiao Minghuang.

She knew that His Highness was real and treated her and Ye Ruoshui equally.

This is a kind of great love, regardless of the order or other factors.

Anyone who is recognized by His Highness will receive her most sincere tenderness.

at this time.

on the bed.

Xiao Minghuang suddenly spread his arms, smiled at Lin Wanqiu, and said softly:

"Late autumn?"

Hearing this gentle voice, Lin Wanqiu was startled, and looked over immediately.

I saw Xiao Minghuang spread half of his arms, with a gentle smile on his face, as if welcoming her back to the sheltered harbor.

Seeing this scene, Lin Wanqiu immediately felt reddened eyes and sore nose.

"Your Highness, she... is really too gentle... I'm crying to death!"

Lin Wanqiu finally couldn't hold back, and half-pushed into Xiao Minghuang's arms.

When Ye Ruoshui noticed her coming, she moved her body actively to make room for half of her position.

"Ruoshui really recognizes me..."

Lin Wanqiu sighed in her heart, feeling Xiao Minghuang's soft and sweet embrace, the satisfaction in her heart could not be described in words.

In order to have a good relationship with Ye Ruoshui, she really paid too much.

Xiao Minghuang hugged the two beauties, and lay down on the bed, controlled his spiritual power to take off the three people's coats, wearing only light and transparent middle clothes, and covered the brocade quilt, the three cuddled up to each other Together.

In the middle of the night, everything was silent.

The three could only hear each other's heartbeat.

thump!

thump!

thump!

But at this moment, their hearts were filled with tranquility, without a trace of charm.

After the assassination incident during the day, they were all mentally exhausted.

Especially Ye Ruoshui and Lin Wanqiu.

When Xiao Minghuang was assassinated during the day, they really felt the world spinning.

After all, Lin Wanqiu is the eldest lady of Beiyang City. She has gone through hardships since she was a child, has a resolute personality, and can still maintain a sense of reason.

If something really happened to Xiao Minghuang, she might regain her strength after her grief, practice hard, and avenge Xiao Minghuang after she becomes stronger in the future.

But Ye Ruoshui was different. She had no parents since she was a child, and it was Xiao Minghuang who adopted her. To her, Xiao Minghuang was everything to her.

If Xiao Minghuang died, she would not be able to live alone.

Now, the assassin who was lurking in the dark was finally caught out, and Ye Ruoshui was finally completely relieved.

Unconsciously.

Fall asleep to the sound of the wind.

68. Who is behind the scenes?

The next morning.

The sun breaks and everything wakes up.

Xiao Minghuang slowly opened his eyes, his thoughts clear.

Beside her, two girls, Ye and Lin, were sticking to her shoulders, with peaceful smiles on their little faces, as if they were having a sweet dream.

Xiao Minghuang gently withdrew from Ye and Lin's arms, gently helped them cover the quilt, and quietly got off the bed.

She walked out of the house, closed the door behind her back, and saw Wang Gonggong standing outside the courtyard door, acting as a guard, standing with eyes closed.

Xiao Minghuang stepped forward and stepped forward.

Before she got close, Wang Jin sensed her aura, opened her eyes, cupped her hands and said:

"Your Highness!"

Xiao Minghuang nodded. Last night, she ordered Wang Jin to interrogate General Li. After one night, according to the method of the great eunuch, she probably asked everything that could be asked.

"Interrogating General Li, what [-

Wang Jin bent slightly and said respectfully:

"Your Highness is as clever as heaven is, and has clever calculations. Then General Li is indeed the Second Prince's subordinate. He has been hiding in Beiyang City for many years, and he managed to become the captain of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion all the way. He managed to hide it from everyone."

"Okay, lead the way, I want to ask him personally."

"Your Highness, this way please."

Wang Jin waved his hand and pointed in one direction.

Xiao Minghuang stepped forward and set off first.

Soon.

The two came to a secret room.

In the hidden hut, General Li was firmly tied to an iron pillar. His whole body was covered with bloodstains and covered with talismans that imprisoned spiritual power. Dynamic half point.

Seemingly hearing the footsteps of the two, General Li suddenly opened his eyes, which were filled with pain and despair, and shouted:

"Please! Kill me! Kill me!"

Seeing this situation, Xiao Minghuang frowned slightly, and glanced at Wang Jin.The latter immediately bowed and said respectfully:

"This thief's mouth is quite firm, and this old slave had no choice but to use some methods that are not commonly used in ordinary times."

"But please rest assured, Your Highness, he has never lost his mind, and he will never forget anything he should know."

Yesterday in the beast horde, Wang Jin's guard Xiao Minghuang was unfavorable, and he accidentally slapped the assassin to death, which can be said to be two consecutive dereliction of duty.

Now that General Li is being interrogated, it is time for him to make amends, so why not do his best?

Xiao Minghuang knew this and didn't care about it carefully. She stretched her brows and said softly:

"Of course I'm relieved that the prince is doing business."

Hearing this, Wang Jin secretly let out a sigh of relief, let go of his hanging heart slightly, and said more respectfully:

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness, it is my honor to serve His Highness!"
