Young Emperor, he doesn't want to be reborn

467

If the prince revisited the Zhennan Palace now, he would be surprised that this mansion, which was overturned and rebuilt under his single-handed supervision, unexpectedly had an extra dark prison since no one knows when.

The cellar-like hut was dug in the back garden. Except when the secret door hidden in the fake cave opened and closed, there would be a few rays of sunlight leaking in. The rest of the time, the inside was dark and gloomy, and it was difficult to see the sun.

At this time, there was a candle and a pot of burning charcoal inside, which clearly illuminated the appearance of the three people chained to the wall.

Those three people had obviously "suffered" a lot of torture, and their exposed skin was covered with whips and brand marks, and there was not a single intact place.Their upper teeth have been shattered, and they can't even bite their tongues to kill themselves. The nails on their fingers and toes have all fallen off, and their limbs are also bent unnaturally.

In this cramped dungeon full of bloody smells and screams, Feng Yanzhou sat on the grand master's chair a little distance away from the three of them, took a teacup from the small square table next to him, and took a sip of the tea inside. Good Pu-erh tea.

Although he was sitting here watching the entire torture process with a blank face, he seemed not interested in the torture that was going on in front of him, and the occasional tapping of his long fingers on the table also revealed his impatience.

When the moon was at its zenith, two of the three people hanging on the wall gradually fell silent, and only the bloody man in the middle barely kept awake.

Wei Hong is the commander of the Nanjun Leopard Cavalry Guards who went to Beijing with the Lord this time, and he is also the main executor of this harsh interrogation.

He put down the soldering iron in his hand, walked up to Feng Yanzhou, bowed and said, "My lord, the leader of the assassins has confessed that he was ordered by King Pingdong. I'm afraid that your lord's trip is to join the court, and he will insist on it in the future." To cut down the vassals, you want to assassinate the prince, and take the opportunity to provoke the relationship between the Holy Majesty and the vassal kings. You see..."

Feng Yanzhou smiled when he heard the words, but this smile was full of indifference and cruelty, completely different from the friendly and carefree appearance he showed in front of Chu Huaijin.

He took the whip from another bodyguard, stood in the only place in front of the assassin leader that was not stained with blood, lifted the man's chin covered with black and red stains with the whip, and let the other party look directly into his eyes .

The expression on Feng Yan's face at this moment made it impossible to see happiness or anger, and he asked in a flat tone: "You said...you were ordered by the Xue family in Dongjun?"

"..." The leader of the assassin was silent for the first time, and then broke out suddenly. He spit at Feng Yanzhou with all his strength, and then cursed in a hoarse and indistinct voice: "Feng Dog! The four old princes back then At that time, we agreed to advance and retreat together! Even if you take refuge with Emperor Chu Wei and become his dog, you will never end well in the future!"

Feng Yanzhou stepped back, dodging his saliva, and whipped the man's face with his backhand, not only nearly smashing half of his face, but even a few of his lower teeth. pieces.

The assassin leader spit out a mouthful of blood mixed with his teeth, and was about to continue yelling when Feng Yanzhou looked at him like a monkey watching a show, and said slowly: "You did find a good scapegoat, and Well done. It's a pity..."

"Xu Xun, I don't know how Master Liang is doing recently?" Feng Yanzhou revealed the true identity of the assassin who was acting in front of him, and looked at the other's astonished eyes, and continued to speak slowly: "You are the court's wanted criminal. Back then, Liang Zi'an, Minister of the Ministry of War, reported that you were executed on the spot when you were arrested, but in fact you and your family were saved. Since then, you have been the knife in his hand. For the past six years, you have been loyal to him in the dark. A lot of things..."

Feng Yanzhou paused for a moment, and then asked with a half-smile, "Tell me, this king is right, or not?"

The man on the wall was silent and did not speak, but the righteous indignation on his face before could no longer hold on.

Feng Yanzhou didn't get an answer from the other party, neither proud nor angry, he just continued without a trace of emotion: "This king knows that you were ordered by Liang Zian, and also knows that your target is not this king. It's just that this king can't figure out why the Liang family..."

Feng Yanzhou clenched the whip in his hand, and only then did he show a bit of ruthlessness, almost gritted his teeth and asked word by word: "You want to assassinate the Ninth Prince?"

Xu Di's lips, which had been sunken in due to the lack of teeth, moved slightly, but in the end he didn't say a word, instead he closed his eyes, making an appearance that he would rather die than recruit.

Feng Yanzhou continued to talk to him: "Although this king has lived in Nanjun all year round, he had a lucky encounter. Even if it is something near the capital, this king may know more than others. For example, In Xiaoyin Village, seventy miles south of the capital, it seems that a woman is about to give birth."

Halfway through Feng Yanzhou's words, his tone suddenly became as if he was playing with the assassin, very close and gentle, but there was a crazy murderous intent hidden in his eyes, "This king once read a folk medicine book, It is said in the book that if the heart of a baby and its mother is used as medicine, it can rejuvenate people. Oh, this king is willing to offer such a good medicine to the current Holy One."

Xu Xun was shocked when he heard the words, and looked at him in disbelief, as if he saw some terrifying monsters and ghosts.

The assassin leader shook his lips for a long time, and finally asked vaguely: "I, if I say it, will Prince Feng...will let my family go?"

Feng Yanzhou nodded, "If you know people, naturally you and your brothers are the only ones to accompany you on this road to the Underworld."

Xu Xun closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he really made a move: "About a year ago, His Royal Highness the Eleventh Prince came out of the palace to meet Mr. Liang, after which Mr. Liang began to secretly train people. No. People. Before this summer hunt, His Royal Highness the Eleventh came to have a secret talk with Lord Liang again, and then Lord Liang ordered me to bring some people to the paddock to take the opportunity to assassinate the Ninth Prince."

"During this year, every time Mr. Liang met His Highness the Eleventh, no one else was allowed to be there, so I don't know what they talked about, but I just followed Mr. Liang's orders." Xu Xun said, The tone became a little eager, "Everything I said is true, I dare not lie to the prince again!"

Feng Yanzhou didn't speak for a while, and after a while, he let out a chuckle, and said to himself as if he had cleared his doubts: "So, he really is... well, it's interesting."

After he finished speaking, he sighed again, as if he was really sorry, and said to Xu Xun who was staring at him nervously: "You are a martial arts prodigy, if you are given another 12 years, maybe you will It can really kill this king. It's a pity that the Liang family is too impatient, this time, it will break your good sword."

After Feng Yanzhou finished speaking, he stopped explaining to this assassin who was good at concealment and assassination. He turned around and walked towards the stairs leaving the dungeon.

Wei Hong followed Feng Yanzhou and asked for instructions: "My lord, what should we do with these three assassins?"

"Give them a good time. Remember to tidy up Xu Xun's head and send it to Master Liang tonight."

After Feng Yanzhou finished speaking, he pushed open the door of the dark prison and walked into the bright white moonlight that filled the garden.

He left all the darkness, filth and bloody smell of that room behind him.
