Being tortured by her whole family, she no longer pretends to be a real daughter!

The next day, after Lin Yusheng had breakfast, she asked Li Fei to take her to the Punishment Hall.

After the three archers died yesterday, Xu Lin was beaten again. Now he was tied to the rack with wounds all over his body, his hair was disheveled, and he was dying.

Seeing Lin Yusheng coming, Li Kui walked over and said respectfully, "Miss, why are you here?"

Now, everyone in the Jiang family castle knows that Lin Yusheng is Miss Jiang.

Lin Yusheng asked him, "Did Xu Lin reveal the mastermind behind this?"

Wang Kui immediately said, "My subordinates are not doing their job well. We still haven't gotten the truth from him about who is behind this. Xu Lin insisted that he didn't know the person who sold him the drugs on the black market!"

Lin Yusheng said nothing and walked towards the room where Xu Lin was imprisoned.

Li Kui followed behind, "Miss, do you want to interrogate him yourself?"

Lin Yusheng nodded.

She walked straight into the room and came up to Xu Lin. At the same time, Xu Lin sensed the presence of someone and reluctantly raised his head to look at her.

Seeing that it was Lin Yusheng, Xu Lin's scattered consciousness regained some clarity.

"Lin... no, it's Miss Jiang..." He opened his mouth with some difficulty, but didn't know what to say.

Now he really regrets it.

He had always been too prejudiced against Lin Yusheng, which caused him to lose his mind and be exploited by people with ulterior motives, leading to his current situation.

Lin Yusheng looked at him coldly and said, "Did you take the initiative to assassinate someone this time, or was someone instructing you to do so?"

Xu Lin pursed his lips and said in a hoarse voice, "I admit that it was me who initially wanted to assassinate you, which is why I called in those three archers. But I never allowed them to shoot arrows at Miss Cixi. I was being used. Someone used me to get rid of Miss Cixi."

He stared at Lin Yusheng intently and continued, "Miss, I have attempted to assassinate you. You can kill me or chop me up if you want, but if you don't uncover the mastermind behind this, not only will Miss Cixi suffer endless consequences, but I will also die with regrets!"

Lin Yusheng sneered, "If you're really as loyal to Jiang Cixi as you claim, then you should honestly reveal the identity of the person who sold you drugs on the black market."

"I..." Xu Lin pursed his lips.

But he really didn't know.

Lin Yusheng took a few steps forward and questioned, "The arrows those archers used were poisoned with snake-scale grass poison, and this poison was probably developed by the Cui family. Does this incident have anything to do with the Cui family?"

Xu Lin only vaguely remembered it when he heard the word "Cui family".

The Cui family is a family of poisons.

Cui family...

Xu Lin's pupils suddenly shrank, and he shouted, "I remember! I remember! It's Cui Tan! It must be Cui Tan!"

Lin Yusheng narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "What do you mean?"

"Although I didn't see that person's face clearly, I always felt that his voice sounded familiar. I couldn't remember where I had heard it before. When you mentioned the Cui family to me just now, it reminded me that I had dealt with Cui Tan when I was doing business a week ago. And the voice of the man in the black market also sounded like Cui Tan!"

Lin Yusheng frowned slightly when he heard this, "Are you sure it's Cui Tan?"

"I think that voice is Cui Tan. The Cui family has always been dissatisfied with Miss Ci Xi because of the conflict of interests. The Cui family must have wanted to deal with Miss Ci Xi for a long time. I happened to go to the black market to buy drugs, and Cui Tan ran into me, so he designed this..." Xu Lin said.

Lin Yusheng nodded and left the punishment hall.

She told Jiang Cixi the news.

Jiang Cixi's eyes turned colder when she heard this. "This matter is indeed related to the Cui family."

The Cui family is very bold now.

Jiang Cixi called Jiang Xiuluo over and ordered, "Bring Cui Tan here."

Jiang Xiuluo was slightly surprised when he heard this. "Ms. Cixi, Cui Tan is a member of the Cui family after all. If we just arrest Cui Tan, wouldn't that be too blatant?"

The most important thing is that even if Xu Lin felt that the man's voice sounded like Cui Tan, there was no substantial evidence to prove that the man was definitely Cui Tan.

Jiang Cixi laughed, a hint of displeasure in her eyes, "Blatant? Then isn't it blatant for the Cui family to send people to attack my Jiang family?"

If it was her who was hurt, it wouldn't matter, but Cui Tan hurt Sheng'er.

She must make it pay the price. Regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with Cui Lai, Cui Tan, don't try to pretend nothing happened!

Jiang Xiuluo also realized that Jiang Cixi was determined to avenge Lin Yusheng, so he didn't say anything else and went to arrest him directly.

Jiang Xiuluo is at the level of a master of ancient martial arts.

Among the seven major families, there are not many masters of ancient martial arts who have reached the pinnacle of martial arts, and they can be counted on one hand.

The Cui family doesn’t even have a master of ancient martial arts.

It would be quite easy for Jiang Xiuluo to capture someone from the Cui family, and he could do it quietly.

Lin Yusheng watched Jiang Xiuluo disappear without a trace, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at Jiang Cixi cunningly and said, "Can I do it myself later?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cixi raised her eyebrows slightly, but agreed very indulgently.

"It's up to you how you punish him later."

night.

The Cui family castle was silent.

Following a figure sneaking in.

Several guards who were patrolling secretly fell silently.

Cui Tan was still asleep.

Suddenly, he dreamed that a hand grabbed his neck.

He was startled and opened his eyes, only to see a face wearing a mask.

A cold chill came towards his neck. Cui Tan's pupils widened, but before he could make a sound, his vision went dark and he fainted.

Jiang Xiuluo carried Cui Tan and carried him directly back to the Jiang family.

-

Cui Tan was awakened by a basin of water.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself tied to a torture rack and was stunned for a moment.

He wasn't sleeping at home, how could he...

Suddenly, he looked up and saw a masked girl in front of him. He immediately became alert, "Who are you? Where is this?"

"Guess where this is." Lin Yusheng said with a smile.

Cui Tan was stunned.

How could he possibly guess?

This is a dark basement.

He didn't know how he ended up here the moment he opened his eyes.

Cui Tan's expression changed slightly. "What do you want to do? Let me go..."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Yusheng slapped him in the face.

Cui Tan was stunned by the slap.

He pinched his palms. If his hands were not tied to the ends of the rack, he would have wanted to slap her.

"How dare you bring me here? And you even dare to hit me? Don't you want to live?" Cui Tan's originally handsome face was now full of anger. He stared at the masked girl in front of him with hatred in his eyes.

“Who is it that doesn’t want to live?”

Lin Yusheng slapped Cui Tan hard on the face again.

However, Lin Yusheng did not stop afterwards.

Slaps followed one after another and hit Cui Tan's face.

Cui Tan's face soon became swollen.

Cui Tan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that this girl dared to treat him like this.
