"Among the princes of Japan, the fourth prince is the most low-key and the most intelligent. He is the right-hand man of the Japanese emperor. He also has a bloodthirsty and cruel nature in his bones, preferring to kill a thousand innocent people rather than let one guilty person go free," General Shen said in a low voice.
Song Yue lowered her eyes.
"We've found the stronghold of Prince Consort Liang Ying. Shall we take it down?" he asked.
Her eyes darkened. The prince consort, for his own selfish reasons, had mixed poison into the confiscated grain and the seeds distributed to the people were also problematic, harming the common people.
Not only that, the prince consort abandoned even his closest relatives, fleeing overnight and disappearing without a trace, leaving his family as hostages in the capital.
Even tearing such a person to pieces wouldn't be enough to vent my anger.
"Grasp!"
If she tolerated the prince consort for even one more day, she would be letting down the people who were on the verge of starvation. If it hadn't been discovered in time, the soldiers of Northern Chu fighting on the front lines would have been in grave danger.
He deserves to die!
General Shen acted swiftly, arriving before them in the dead of night with a man blindfolded, his mouth stuffed with something, and constantly writhing his body.
Suddenly the mask was removed, and the prince consort saw who it was, his eyes widening in horror; "You, who are you?"
Song Yue wore a mask with blue faces and fangs, exuding a chilling aura. She first ordered her men to drag the person out and treat them properly.
Let's bring it up again in two days.
By this time, the prince consort had already slumped to the ground like a limp rag doll.
"He confessed?"
"I confess." General Shen handed over the written statement.
It clearly states that the prince consort is not a member of the Liang family at all, but rather an illegitimate son of a prominent family in Japan. He impersonated the legitimate son of the Liang family to marry the princess and secretly engaged in shady dealings.
Song Yue was somewhat surprised.
It turns out it wasn't that I didn't care about my closest relatives, but that they were all fake. No wonder.
Aunt Wan is also the prince consort's cousin. The two are in cahoots. Now Aunt Wan has been made the official wife long ago and has even given birth to a child.
"Send this letter back to the capital as fast as possible and deliver it to Princess Liang Ying."
"yes."
Looking down at the prince consort, Song Yue smiled. People aren't without weaknesses, they just misjudged them. She bent down and took the jade pendant from him: "Go and deliver it to Madam Wan."
General Shen took the jade pendant, somewhat puzzled: "Not kill him?"
"Death is too cheap for him; he has too many lives on his hands."
Besides, she still needs him to transport supplies, so there's no rush to kill him.
