Luo Sha walked out, and after a while, he brought in the bodies of the two assassins with his men.

The two corpses had begun to decompose, emitting a stench from the inside out.

Ji Qingyun walked over with his mouth covered, and lifted the shroud covering the corpse.One of them was tattooed, and there was a black tattoo on his forehead.

Ji Qingyun waved his hand and asked the jailer to carry the man away.He walked to the other corpse, but he didn't see what kind of punishment this person had received before the rope.There is no engraving on the face, and all limbs are complete.Ji Qingyun thought for a while, and said to the jailer, "Take off his pants."

The prince coughed lightly, walked over, covered his nose and said with a smile: "Do you still have this habit, sir?"

"The prince is worrying too much."

Ji Qingyun didn't look at the prince, when the jailer took off the trousers of the corpse, he took a closer look, and sure enough, as he expected, the man had his butt cut off.

Ji Qingyun frowned, and asked the jailer to lift up the corpse as well.

The prince asked, "What do you mean, sir?"

Ji Qingyun walked up to the prisoner who was hung upside down, let go of his hand covering his nose, took a deep breath, and said: "As the prince saw, these people have received five punishments, if you guess correctly, they should all be criminals. "

The prince touched his chin and asked, "What do you mean, sir? Are these people so-called heroes?"

Ji Qingyun shook his head, stared at the prince, and asked: "How can people in the Jianghu assassinate the king of Yue and then blame the prince on you? There must be someone behind this."

The prince was a little anxious, and hurriedly asked: "Who??"

Ji Qingyun wanted to give the prince a big slap in the face, so he silently rolled his eyes, stared at the prisoner, and said, "Then you have to ask him."

When it came to setting blame, the prince was more anxious than anyone else, and he gave Tie Lihua a wink.

Tie Lihua understood and kicked away the stone bricks under the prisoner's head.

The prisoner's body fell several centimeters high. Seeing that his intestines were about to be pulled out from the anus, he wailed in pain, and all kinds of bad words came out of his mouth. .

Tie Lihua stared at the iron hook without changing her face.

The prince said to the prisoner: "Just tell me who it is, and you won't have to suffer this crime!!"

The prisoner was so painful that he lost his strength and didn't speak.

Ji Qingyun said: "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything."

Prince: "Huh?"

Ji Qingyun said: "Whoever has the right to go to the local prison, and whoever transferred the prisoners in the local prison back then, will be found out after this investigation."

Tie Lihua raised her foot and kicked the bricks, but failed to remove the top brick.The prisoner supported the bricks with both hands, swayed from side to side, sweating from the pain.

Seeing that his will was weak, Tie Lihua snapped his fingers to ask the jailer to put him down.

The prisoner breathed a sigh of relief, lying on the ground like a dead man.

Tie Lihua touched his neck, tested his pulse, and said, "It's okay, hang it up after an hour."

"Don't..." The prisoner struggled to grab the straw on the ground and said weakly, "I only know...the person who gave me orders."

"Oh?" Ji Qingyun asked, "What's your name?"

"We...we all call...call him Second Master Wu."

"Second Master Wu???" Ji Qingyun had a bad feeling, and he slowly turned his gaze to the prince.

The prince heard the name was familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while. He paced back and forth, thought for a while, and asked Luo Sha: "Have you heard of it?"

Luo Sha said: "The head of the martial arts field in the west of the city is the younger brother of Yushi Wuzhu."

Ji Qingyun's heart tightened.Attendant Yushi Wu Zhu, Wu Xing'er's father.

Ji Qingyun froze on the spot, breathing unsteadily.He knew that the behind-the-scenes instigator of this matter was King Wu, but there was no direct evidence pointing to King Wu, and Wu Zhu, the censor, was probably also a chess game played by King Wu.But now, that piece of chess must be lost.

The crown prince was also a little depressed, he said: "It shouldn't be, the inside of Yushi should be all my people."

Tie Lihua thought that the prisoner was trying to stir up internal strife and was torturing him.The prince quickly stopped him, saying: "Father was going to recruit criminals when he built the Tongtian Pavilion. It was indeed Wu Zhu who was in charge, but at the beginning, it was my order..."

The prince was very confident that he thought that the people inside Yushitai were all his own people, but he didn't expect this chess to be overturned, and he scratched his head anxiously.

Ji Qingyun thought for a while and asked, "Your Highness, what if someone betrays?"

The prince didn't understand why Shi Yushi turned his back on him, so he looked at Tie Lihua.

Tie Lihua asked the criminal, "Be more careful."

The prisoner licked his lips and said: "Back then, Wu Zhu was summoned out of the Xuzhou Prison and took the prisoners to Taizhu Mountain to build the Tongtian Pavilion for the emperor, but he kept some of us who can fight... After finishing speaking, the prisoner's legs became hot, and excrement flowed out from his intestines.

Ji Qingyun said: "The top priority is to protect Wu Zhu first."

The prince understood what Ji Qingyun meant, and said to Luo Sha, "Go."
