When Su Qingli returned to Mo Yunting's courtyard, the secret guard had just brought back the news.

"Did you get anything?" Mo Yunting was dazzled for a moment when he saw Su Qingli dressed like a young man and looking so heroic.

"Yes, Liang Sheng locked up the captured girls in a brothel in the city." Su Qingli took out the portrait, "The person in the painting is the one who specifically trained them."

"Go check, and once you find them, take them under control immediately."

"Your Majesty, did Liang Sheng get anything?"

"Liang Sheng has a private residence in Yangzhou, where a mother and son live." Mo Yunting glanced at Su Qingli. "After our people arrived, another group of people came and tried to snatch the mother and son away."

"Is it to rob someone or to silence them?"

"Robbery."

Su Qingli's mind moved slightly: "Your Majesty, have you searched that private residence carefully?"

"We searched, but found nothing." Mo Yunting's expression was gloomy, and the aura around him became even colder. "Liang Sheng should have the account books of his evil deeds, but no one knows where they are."

"Has the prince interrogated Liang Sheng?" Since he knew Liang Sheng's weakness, Mo Yunting would not let him go.

"We interrogated him. Even though he knew that Xue's mother and son were in our hands, he kept his mouth shut." Mo Yunting's men tried every possible method, but Liang Sheng still refused to speak. Their investigation came to a standstill.

"Your Highness, can you allow me to go and talk to Liang Sheng?" Su Qingli asked tentatively.

Mo Yunting's gaze fell on Su Qingli. When they couldn't get anything out of Liang Sheng, Xuan half-jokingly said that letting Su Qingli interrogate him might get Liang Sheng to speak.

Before he could figure out how to get Su Qingli to agree to help interrogate Liang Sheng, Su Qingli took the initiative to speak.

"it is good."

Su Qingli put on a mask and went to interrogate Liang Sheng. Her identity could not be known to others.

Liang Sheng was tied to the rack, his head tilted limply. When he heard footsteps, he didn't even lift his eyelids.

After Su Qingli entered, she had people light candles in the dark room. The originally dim room suddenly became brightly lit. Liang Sheng was so blinded by the strong light that he could no longer pretend to be asleep.

Su Qingli had someone move in a table and a chess set, and then she sat alone playing chess.

Liang Sheng had already thought about how to deal with the person who came to interrogate him, but when this person came, he didn't ask anything and just sat aside playing chess. In the dark room, the only sound that could be heard was the sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard.

The environment was too bright and the room was too quiet, and any slight movement could be easily detected. Liang Sheng was a very patient person. Seeing that the visitor ignored him, he remained silent, but did not let down his guard.

Suddenly, a child's cry was heard, startling the extremely vigilant Liang Sheng. The cry was very shrill and somewhat familiar, which made Liang Sheng tremble with fear.

"Who is crying?" Liang Sheng asked anxiously.

Su Qingli looked at the chess game on the board with a frown on her face. Feng Qing had defeated her with this game of chess. The method was not very clever, but it had deceived her eyes.

"I'm asking you who is crying?" Liang Sheng asked in a raised voice.

"No one is crying." Su Qingli's voice was cold and her speech was slow.

"I clearly heard a child crying. Listen, he was crying so sadly." The intermittent crying sound reached Liang Sheng's ears. He always felt that it was his child crying. "What have you done to my son?"

Su Qingli picked up a chess piece and dropped it on the chessboard with a snap. With the sound, the child's crying stopped. Liang Sheng pricked up his ears hesitantly, but he no longer heard the child's crying.

Could it be that he was really hallucinating?
