When others are hungry, chewing quietly is also a kind act.

Although... the prince deserves to be hungry.

But Ji Yan's unconcealed and even deliberate eating sounds made the prince even more upset.

Even though he couldn't eat anything, the aroma of the food made him unable to help but stare at Ji Yan with red eyes and swallow his saliva.

Is this old man made of iron?

The prince wanted to curse loudly, but he couldn't open his mouth.

Xiao Hengshan didn't expect Ji Yan to be such a coward. He had agreed to let him continue the interrogation, but he ended up bringing in delicious wine and food to eat and drink.

You know, he just ate two vegetarian buns.

"Your Highness, are you hungry?"

Ji Yan didn't look up. He put his chopsticks into the Kung Pao Chicken, picked up two peanuts and put them into his mouth, then asked vaguely.

The prince said nothing, and was too lazy to glare at him, so he closed his eyes with an impure look.

However, his violently heaving chest betrayed him.

If Ji Yan continued to torment him like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to leave here alive.

But even if he couldn't get out of here, he would never admit...

"Master Ji, Master Xiao."

The jailer hurried out from the depths of the prison and said with surprise, "Someone has spoken."

"is it?"

Xiao Hengshan was also happy.

They interrogated the people in the Prince's Mansion for a whole night. It turned out that the people were stubborn. Even after using severe torture, no one was willing to confess.

What’s the situation now? Can’t you bear it anymore?

Ji Yan had already put down his wine glass and headed straight for the depths of the prison. The further he went in, the more the prison extended downhill underground. On both sides of the narrow corridor were cells that were dark and damp.

The further you go inside, the more serious criminals you see.

In a prison as big as this one, there is no possibility of escape or prison break.

Those who were willing to speak were not imprisoned in cells close to the death row prisoners, but they were not imprisoned in cells closer to the outside either, because they were the staff of the Prince's Mansion, and everything the Prince did was closely related to them.

Ji Yan went to see "someone who was willing to speak", and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little panicked.

Xiao Hengshan retracted his gaze, looked at the prince who had opened his eyes, and sat back on the chair. He did not continue to judge the case, but chatted with the prince: "Your Highness, do you know why Master Ji is so persistent?"

I just want revenge!

After the prince responded to Xiao Hengshan in his heart, he closed his eyes again: "It's just that you saw that I was dying, and wanted to step on my corpse to release the deposed prince. Haha - old man."

"Is your highness really innocent?"

Xiao Hengshan's question was blunt and outrageous.

Without waiting for His Royal Highness to answer, he answered himself: "Your Highness actually knows in your heart that you are not innocent. Otherwise, would you follow me back to the prison of the Dali Temple safely?"

"It is precisely because Your Highness feels guilty and has something to hide that he thinks that even if he is sent to the Dali Temple's prison, as long as he keeps his mouth shut and denies the crime, he can walk out of here in one piece."

"Your Highness, I'm telling you the truth."

Xiao Hengshan was earnest in his words, but his tone changed when he was chatting: "Master Ji must have other evidence, and it must be irrefutable evidence. Otherwise, why would he risk his life to fight with you? According to my years of experience in handling cases, he is sure that Your Highness cannot turn things around, and he just wants you to admit it yourself."

"Your Highness, while His Majesty still has some mercy on you, you might as well consider it before Master Ji returns."

Xiao Hengshan said "here is all he had to say" and asked someone to bring the wine glasses away...
