Ye Chen looked at Nanny He who was kneeling on the ground, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

He had already sensed that something was wrong.

Are Madam Xue and this Nanny He acting in a double act?

The purpose is to make him afraid to use severe torture.

Madam Xue has a special status and is Ye Chen's elder. If Ye Chen tortures Madam Xue into confessing and wrongly accuses people around her, and this matter gets out, it will severely damage Ye Chen's prestige, and those censors will surely seize the opportunity to spit at Ye Chen.

Yang Dechang must have made a fuss about this matter.

However, Madam Xue and Nanny He obviously underestimated him.

"Qiu'er, go and interrogate!"

Ye Chen sat down in the main seat in the hall and said.

Shen Qiu waved his hand, and a large number of imperial guards walked in.

The interrogation began quickly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Hua Rui felt a little uneasy. She was a little scared of those imperial guards, especially Ye Chen, who was emitting a solemn aura that she had never seen before.

"Rui'er, come and serve me."

Ye Chen said lightly.

Hearing this, Hua Rui felt a little relieved and walked forward to massage Ye Chen's shoulders.

Ye Chen closed his eyes, feeling the gentle beating of the pistil, showing an attitude as unmoved as a mountain.

Only an incense stick of time later, Shen Qiu arrived in front of Ye Chen.

"Your Majesty, the interrogation has concluded that nine people left Chunrui Palace today. However, while Madam Xue was chatting with Concubine Hua, only Nanny He and a young eunuch left. The young eunuch went to the Imperial Kitchen to get some fruits, and judging by the time he left, it's impossible for him to pass on any information."

"Ah."

After hearing the interrogation results brought by Shen Qiu, Lin Ziyun was able to conclude that Nanny He was definitely the traitor.

"Qiu'er, drag him away!"

Ye Chen said with a sharp gaze.

"Yes!"

Shen Qiu immediately walked towards Nanny He.

The flower behind Ye Chen was startled.

"Your Majesty, this."

Huarui seemed to want to speak but hesitated.

She vaguely felt that since Nanny He was Madam Xue's person after all, it might not be a good idea for Ye Chen to torture her.

"Hahaha, what a tyrant!"

"You tyrant emperor! You are unworthy of being the emperor! You have wronged me!"

Nanny He suddenly shouted loudly.

"Be bold!"

Shen Qiu's face darkened and he stepped forward immediately.

"Qiu'er, let him call."

Ye Chen immediately called Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu was slightly stunned, then he suppressed the urge to take action and waved his hand.

Two imperial guards immediately stepped forward and forcibly dragged Nanny He away.

Nanny He shouted and screamed all the way, constantly cursing the tyrant emperor.

"His Majesty."

Hua Rui's eyebrows were tightly furrowed.

"Rui'er, if I want someone to tell the truth, I have other ways. I won't actually use torture."

Ye Chen smiled coldly, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Those teachers who were on hunger strike were all persuaded by his new method. Could Nanny He's psychological quality be compared with those teachers?

After hearing Ye Chen's words, Hua Rui was a little confused, but she felt relieved. She still chose to believe Ye Chen and stepped forward to massage Ye Chen's shoulders.

Ye Chen's face was as calm as a deep abyss, and his eyes gradually became deeper.

Nanny He's shouting continued to come from the courtyard, and even seemed a little hysterical.

Seeing him like this, Ye Chen felt more and more that he was deliberately provoking him.

"Could it be that this person wants to provoke him into using severe torture?"

A gleam of light flashed in Ye Chen's eyes. Could it be that Nanny He is also a assassin?

"Qiu'er, don't let this man commit suicide."

"Your Majesty, our people have been watching her secretly, and her hands and feet are tied up. We won't give her the chance to commit suicide."

Shen Qiu stepped forward and said.

"Well, that's good."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, and then said to Shen Qiu: "If this woman is really determined not to confess, then use the methods I mentioned on her one by one, and also call the imperial physician over."

"Yes!"

Shen Qiu immediately went down to pass on the order.

Soon, there was a hint of fear in Nanny He's shouting, and then it gradually died down.

The process is somewhat long.

But in reality, it only took eight hours.

Shen Qiu came to Ye Chen's side.

"Your Majesty, Nanny He fainted from the sound of knife sharpening. The imperial physician is treating her and she should be awake soon."

"Tsk."

Ye Chen frowned slightly. He didn't expect that Nanny He could hold on for so long.

"Qiu'er, go check out the background of this Nanny He!"

"promise."

Shen Qiu retreated immediately.

Hua Rui picked up the teapot and poured Ye Chen a cup of warm tea.

Soon, Shen Qiu came to Ye Chen's side.

"Your Majesty, we've investigated thoroughly. This Nanny He entered the palace thirty years ago. She has family members outside the palace, but something seems to have happened to her family in the past two years. According to the case files transferred from the Ministry of Justice, her family members suddenly disappeared."

"Ok?"

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows, then said to Shen Qiu: "What does the case file say?"

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Justice has concluded that the case is unsolved!"

"Humph!"

Ye Chen snorted coldly.

The Ministry of Justice again!

"Your Majesty, Madam Xue has already sent three groups of people to inquire about this! If our people hadn't sealed off her palace, she would have already rushed here."

Shen Qiu said again.

"Bring in that Madam He."

Ye Chen said in a calm tone.

Soon, Nanny He, with a pale face, was dragged in.

"My tyrant, no matter how you torture me, I won't say a word."

Nanny He was sweating profusely. The mental torture she had experienced in just one day was enough to give her nightmares for the rest of her life.

But she still didn't give in.

Ye Chen looked at her with his eyes narrowed.

"Who captured your family?"

"what?!"

Nanny He's face changed drastically and she looked at Ye Chen in shock.

"You, you, how do you know?"

"To save your family, only I can help you, but you have to tell the truth!"

Ye Chen said so.

Nanny He stared at Ye Chen blankly, and suddenly said, "You, you can really help me?"

"I am the emperor. The whole world belongs to me. How can I not save your family?"

Ye Chen was dressed in gorgeous robes, and his aura was breathtaking.

Nanny He was shocked and became hesitant.
