The two assassins turned their faces away: "Since we brothers dared to come here to kill and set fires, we never intended to leave alive. Kill us or torture us, it's up to you! But if you want to get anything out of us, humph, forget about it!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and looked like he was ready to do whatever he wanted, truly like a dead pig that isn't afraid of boiling water.
Wow, you've got some tough bones.
Wu Chuan clenched his fist and walked up to the two of them: "No one dares to say that to Grandpa Wu!"
After saying that, one of them punched the other two in the stomach.
The two men sneered. Is that all? They dare to threaten them?
However, the thought had barely crossed their minds when the two of them felt the pain gradually spreading throughout their bodies, becoming more and more intense, until their bodies convulsed and spasmed.
This pain is unlike external injuries or whip marks; it seems to rise slowly from the soles of the feet, or seep out from the bones, causing unbearable discomfort that feels like it's driving one mad.
The veins on their foreheads and necks bulged like earthworms, their eyes were bloodshot, and they screamed in agony, yet they couldn't pinpoint where they hurt. It felt as if someone was grinding every bone in their body with an awl, but they couldn't reach it; the pain was so intense that they were on the verge of madness.
But the discomfort was real and clear, and the two of them couldn't take it anymore. They screamed and rolled around on the ground.
Lu Xiaoyun couldn't help but glance at Wu Chuan. How did he manage to master that punch? It was so powerful that she felt pain in it.
Even Lu Yuyan, whose medical skills were already unparalleled and who could draw the human body structure with his eyes closed, shuddered. My goodness, Wu Chuan is too amazing?
The siblings had never seen how Prince An's subordinates interrogated prisoners before, and now that they had seen it, it was truly an eye-opener. No wonder no one could withstand Zhu Yu's methods.
It's no wonder that Wu Chuan, with so many flaws, would become Zhu Yu's confidant.
Zhu Yu remained calm, picked up his teacup, took a slow sip, and said coldly, "You'd better confess obediently. This punch was just an appetizer. Don't force him to fight again, or you'll suffer the consequences. By then, you won't even be able to beg for mercy."
Feng Yan and Wu Chuan both looked at the "Princess Consort." How could the Princess Consort know him so well? Apart from the four people closest to the Prince, only the Prince himself knew that he had this kind of interrogation method.
For those who knew about it, the grass on their graves was already two meters high.
Zhu Yu glanced at the two of them: "I know there's nothing strange about it. Ask your master, is there any secret she's hiding from me?"
The two men glanced at their master furtively, but seeing his shifty gaze, they dared not ask any questions. The princess had already made it very clear: their master was a henpecked husband!
"Speak up! Who ordered you? Where did you come from? If I hit you again, it won't just hurt like this." Wu Chuan clenched his fist again.
The two of them shuddered in fright.
One of the thin, short men in black couldn't take it anymore. He was in so much pain that he was sweating profusely. He crawled down in front of Wu Chuan and grabbed his leg tightly: "I'll talk, I'll tell you everything."
Another man in black gritted his teeth: "Skinny Monkey, how dare you, how dare you betray your master!" He used all his strength to grab the man called Skinny Monkey by the neck.
Feng Yan kicked out, and the man flew out like a broken leaf, crashing into a pillar with a thud and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Lu Xiaoyun gave Wu Chuan a wink, and Wu Chuan lightly tapped the skinny monkey's back with his finger, causing the excruciating pain to recede like a receding tide.
Zhu Yu glanced at the man in black who had been kicked and coughed up blood by Feng Yan, and said to Wu Chuan, "Since this man is so tough, you go and entertain him."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Seeing Lu Yuyan's pale face, Zhu Yu smiled faintly: "Don't frighten my brother."
"Okay."
Wu Chuan walked over and dragged the man in black to the next room as if he were a dead fish. Soon after, a series of howls came from the next room.
Lu Yuyan couldn't help but ask, "Will he... will he be beaten to death?"
Zhu Yu blew on the floating tea leaves: "Yes, he will die, but not so easily. He will suffer for seven days and seven nights before slowly dying. The process is extremely painful, so that he can truly experience what it means to be unable to live or die before he dies."
Zhu Yu bent down and looked at the skinny monkey who was cowering in fear: "So, you're still planning to hide some of the truth and not tell the whole story?"
The skinny monkey stared incredulously at this beautiful woman whose face was as lovely as a flower, yet whose words were as sharp as ice blades.
"Don't think I didn't see your little stunts. I'm giving you one last chance, will you talk or not!" As he finished speaking, a sharp killing intent emanated from Zhu Yu.
The skinny monkey trembled with fear, gasping for breath: "I, I'll talk, I'll tell you everything."
“We are the secret guards of the Duke of Ying’s mansion. Two months ago, the Duke of Ying received a secret letter from Consort De. He immediately dispatched more than 500 men to infiltrate Shengjing City separately.”
Originally, there were more than 500 people, but the information they received at the time indicated that there were more than 100. Only about 20 people actually infiltrated the Zichen Palace with the Duke of Ying. After the failure, Zhu Dan ordered Qi Shaocheng to search and capture the remaining 70-odd people in Shengjing City. It only took two days to capture them all.
Zhu Yu asked coldly, "How much exactly is five hundred?"
“Five hundred, five hundred and fifty-two people. The Duke of Yingguo led twenty-seven men to infiltrate the Zichen Palace, where they were shot dead on the spot by the Imperial Guards. The other seventy-three were also wiped out by Commander Qi.”
Lu Xiaoyun asked, "So, the 452 people Han Jin mentioned yesterday, are they you?"
The skinny monkey nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it's us. We lost our master a month ago, and the Duke of England's mansion was raided and the entire family was wiped out. We had no choice but to hide in the mountains and forests, making a living by robbery, and eventually we ended up here."
Lu Xiaoyun and Zhu Yu exchanged a glance. They were surprised that the Duke of Yingguo had so many secret guards. The Prince of An's mansion only had a little over a hundred secret guards, but the Duke of Yingguo's mansion had more than four hundred!
It's important to know that maintaining a bodyguard is extremely expensive.
“Three days ago we received news that His Highness Prince An and his entourage were heading to Liangzhou City, and this place was a necessary stop. So we discussed it and prepared to ambush them here to avenge the Duke of Ying.”
“But you shot down our gyrfalcons, and we thought you had discovered our hiding place on the mountain and would take the main road instead. So we secretly notified our brothers on the mountain to evacuate as soon as possible and to ambush us on the main road.”
“We waited until dark but found no trace of you, and that’s when we realized we’d been tricked again. Just as we were about to leave, we were suddenly surrounded by thousands of people. We were outnumbered, and more than four hundred of us were either killed or captured.”
Zhu Yu asked, "Then what happened to you two? Did you escape from Han Jin?"
