Sheng Mingyu's tone was full of sarcasm. He was not someone who could be angered by just a few words.

What's more, how could he act impulsively when he has such a big thing on his shoulders?

These petty thieves really looked down on him. Sheng Mingyu was speechless. How dare they use such petty tricks on him?

These petty thieves looked very unhappy. They didn't expect Sheng Mingyu to expose their lies in just one sentence. They quickly tried to make excuses, "Who said we were provoking you? We are just telling you the truth. You won't get any useful information from us! You might as well just kill us and save your time!"

The thief next to him immediately agreed, "Although we brothers do things for money, we also have credibility. If we didn't have credibility, how could we have so much money?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the person next to him interrupted, "Your Highness, I see that your future Crown Princess seems very sad. Are you really not going to comfort her?"

They also have families, so naturally they don't want to die like this.

However, the man who could give them so much money must have great power behind him. They had no choice but to give up their lives just to save their families.

"You don't need to worry about how sad this prince's consort is. Just remember, if you don't speak up, today will be your last day alive. Don't worry, as long as you say something useful and the princess is happy, you will be able to save your life."

The mention of Gu Yunni was like touching Sheng Mingyu's sore spot, and the words he spoke were no longer as patient as before.

He even picked up a soldering iron.

Since these people are shameless, don't blame him for being rude.

The expressions of these little thieves changed again and again. They knew that Sheng Mingyu was going to do it himself.

I shouldn't have said those harsh words, but it's too late to regret now.

Who wants to die if you can live?

"ah!"

The branding iron made a sizzling sound as it hit the skin, and soon a burnt smell spread.

"Tell me! Who sent you here? Do you know where the people are? To be honest, you can still keep your life." Sheng Mingyu used all the methods he had on the battlefield on these people.

Since arriving at the battlefield, he has learned a lot. He not only tortured them physically, but also psychologically.

"There are so many of you. Whoever answers first will be given a feast by this prince. As for those who remain silent, I will not be polite to them."

"No! There's no way we can tell. Just forget about it. We're tight-lipped brothers. It's just a minor burn. Do you really think you can pry us open? You really look down on us!"

The voices of the petty thieves changed, but no one revealed the mastermind behind the scenes.

Sheng Mingyu was a little annoyed. This was taking too long.

His original plan was to resolve the issue quickly, but given the current situation, he didn't know when he would be able to find out their purpose.

"Imprison everyone separately. If one person doesn't tell the truth, I won't believe it. No one should tell the truth! There will always be people who can't stand the torture." Sheng Mingyu's face was gloomy, and he was like the devil descending when he said this.

These methods were used on prisoners of war, not ordinary people.

The first person he interrogated was the most insignificant minion.

During the entire process, he didn't say a word to Sheng Mingyu, but he was the most ruthless.

Sheng Mingyu didn't know what his intuition was, he just wanted to start with this person.

There are only two results anyway: either the truth is revealed, or there is no result.

The man saw that he was the first one to be interrogated, and he began to get anxious. "Prince! No matter how you interrogate me, I can't confess. Why don't you just let me go and take my life? Just think of it as a blessing for yourself. Don't people say you are an evil star? If you do more good deeds, you will definitely be able to get rid of this name."

Sheng Mingyu laughed like a devil, and the words he said were also terrifying. "Impossible, do you know why this prince is interrogating you today? You only have two choices, either tell the truth or endure the torture."

Anyway, he has already persuaded those who need to be persuaded. If these people don't listen, he can't be blamed for being cruel.

"Have you thought it through? What exactly are you going to do? This prince will only give you one stick of incense to think about it. After that, I won't wait for you any longer."

After saying that, he really sat down on a chair beside him and started drinking tea.

Interrogation is a psychological warfare, not a test of how ruthless the means are.

Sometimes it is useless to use ruthless means. You still have to see whether the other party is afraid or not.

Sure enough, the little thief became more and more uneasy as he looked at Sheng Mingyu motionlessly, unable to figure out what he was going to do.

Can't you just have a quickie?

"Prince! I beg you, just ask if you have any questions. Even if you want to take my life, it's all up to you." He was impatient and didn't want to sit quietly with Sheng Mingyu.

He didn't care if it would cause any problems, since he had no family behind him anyway.

He doesn't need to fight to the death like those brothers. His own life is the most important thing at this time. It would be foolish to consider others.

"Oh? Didn't I say I'd give you an incense stick of time? Are you speaking now that you've figured it out? Well, just say it directly. I don't like wasting time either."

Sheng Mingyu was happy in his heart. Sure enough, he won this round.

He didn't ask a direct question, mainly because he wanted to see what the other party could say.

"This..." The little thief was a little confused. He didn't know what Sheng Mingyu meant by this. What should he explain? Where should he even begin?

He racked his brains and finally came up with something useful.

"Prince, you know that I am the lowest in our team and don't know any specific matters. I only know that our boss received a large sum of money, and only the boss knows who the leader is. I really don't know." The little thief looked at Sheng Mingyu pleadingly.

He didn't tell the truth, but he felt that what he said should be helpful to Sheng Mingyu. It would be fine if he could explain some of it, there was no need to explain everything.

"Oh, it seems you still haven't thought it through. In that case, then think about it again. Anyway, I have enough time, but I don't know if you have enough time."

Sheng Mingyu smiled sarcastically. Seeing him like this, she knew that he was not telling the truth.

He actually dared to fool me, he is really brave.

Sheng Mingyu winked at the people around him, and they immediately picked up all the torture instruments.

He said to give this person some time, but he never thought of letting him go easily.
