Chu Tianling stood up, just then the guards dragged over several unlucky men who had been beaten and maimed.
"Your Highness, what should we do with these people?"
"Drag him away and subject him to severe torture. Make sure he confesses everything!" Chu Tianling's icy voice rang out.
Those unlucky guys were still howling in pain, feeling that they were having a terrible day, when suddenly they heard a shout that torture was about to begin.
This immediately terrified me; when a knife is on someone else, they don't feel pain.
Having just endured the torment of a savage, bear-like man, and already suffering both physically and mentally, my psychological defenses crumbled immediately; I couldn't hold on any longer!
"No, no, no! Don't hit me, I'll talk, I'll talk!"
"Me too! Me too!"
"I'll tell you everything, please don't hit me!"
…
The five of them started scrambling for it.
"Alright, men, take them away and interrogate them separately. Whoever talks the most will be spared torture!"
As soon as Chu Tianling said this, the five people began to speak one after another, afraid that they would not say enough.
Shen Jiaojiao looked at him and gave him a thumbs up: "Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"
Gou Dan heard it very clearly; the guard called out "Your Highness!"
So this is His Highness the Crown Prince? His eyes were practically brimming with light.
"Jiaojiao, this situation is urgent, and I want to leave immediately in case the other party moves."
“Yes, I’ll go with you, and bring everyone from the manor.”
"Um!"
Once the decision was made, Chu Tianling immediately notified everyone to bring their weapons.
Fu Hang was among those who came back with him this time, and Wang Dazhuang actively stayed in the courtyard to interrogate him.
Gou Dan led the way, with Fu Hang and 10 others following behind to scout ahead, while Chu Tianling and his group followed behind.
They had barely left when Zhou Tianqi returned.
For a bite to eat, he ran all the way back. The poor skinny monkey in his arms, unable to speak after becoming a corpse, was dragged along like that. By the time they reached the yard, half of its face had been worn away.
Zhou Tianqi found a cell where the five men were being held. They were talking to the men when they saw that the only one who had escaped had half his face missing.
Her limp body was so casually dragged away, then tossed aside and thrown into a nearby cell.
The five people were hit hard, both visually and psychologically. Their hands, feet, and mouths trembled as they spoke as fast as they could, terrified of becoming the next victim.
Wang Dazhuang found it all rather boring. "I haven't even made a move yet, and you're already talking so enthusiastically. It's so tedious. I should have just gone with Fu Hang."
Zhou Tianqi didn't take these people seriously at all. After throwing the food away, he ran towards the kitchen. He found no one in the yard and was worried that he wouldn't be able to cook.
To be honest, he was really lucky; everyone else missed out on the food, but he got to eat first.
The kitchen was full of cooked food.
He picked up a large bowl and started cooking, leaving the food untouched for the Crown Prince and Crown Princess untouched.
Well, it would take a normal person an hour to walk back, but I'm fast and only took half an hour. The extra half hour is perfectly reasonable!
I'll be full later, and I'll run even faster. Then I can catch up with His Highness the Crown Prince and continue working!
That's right, he showed off his meal while simultaneously arranging the aftermath.
Although Gou Dan was young, he was quick-witted and walked very fast, his heart racing and his body full of energy.
That's great! I need to make a good impression so that when this is over, I can ask His Highness the Crown Prince to take me in, and then I can work for him.
With hope in my heart, I feel especially energetic.
After walking for a short while, Gou Dan raised his hand, signaling everyone to stop.
The night was very dark, but his eyes were very bright, as if they were glowing.
"Shh! It's just ahead," he said, pointing in a direction in the air.
Sure enough, a faint light flickered on the halfway point.
"Don't move here. We'll go ahead and investigate. When His Highness the Crown Prince arrives, we'll tell him to wait for us to return."
"Okay, I understand. Be careful."
Dog Egg waited in hiding, while several dark figures slowly walked forward.
Fu Hang led his men slowly towards the cave entrance and, sure enough, saw several people cursing and swearing as they moved people.
Those people seemed to have fainted, lying unconscious on the ground.
As they talked, the group casually piled people onto the carriage, intending to take them away.
"What the hell is going on?! Damn it, why do they have to cause trouble out of the blue? I haven't even eaten yet!"
"Get this mess sorted out quickly! What would you like to eat? Get to work!"
"By the way, why haven't we caught that little brat who got away yet? Six grown men can't even catch a child?"
"I hope nothing bad has happened."
"Never mind it, just finish your own business and leave. Don't meddle in things that don't concern you."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
…
Fu Hang observed carefully and found that no one was watching him. Did they become so fearless after doing so many things?
There were five carriages, and this man just threw them in haphazardly, without paying any attention.
Five people pulled the cart, ten guards, and ten people carried the people.
The danger seemed much lower than expected; at least His Highness the Crown Prince's side was completely overwhelming.
"You guys stay here and keep watch, don't move for now. I'll go back and bring some men over."
After speaking, Fu Hangchao stepped back, found Gou Dan, and reunited with His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Your Highness, the location has been found. The enemy can currently see twenty-five people, but no danger has been detected in the shadows."
"Okay, Gou Dan, you've completed your task. Now go back to the courtyard and wait for me to return. I don't need you right now!" Chu Tianling made the arrangements for him.
After all, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of him later.
Dog Egg felt extremely reluctant to leave. He wanted to help, but his body was too small, so he was not very useful. He had no choice but to obediently leave.
Watching Gou Dan walk away, Chu Tianling led his men to press on.
Fu Hang charged ahead, and his group seemed to descend from the sky, catching the enemy completely off guard.
After all these years, something still went wrong.
Before the other side could resist, Chu Tianling's side captured everyone with overwhelming force.
At this point, only one of the five vehicles was occupied, and a large number of people were still lying on the ground inside the cave.
"Tie these people up and lock them up first." Chu Tianling ordered Fu Hang to take his men and arrest the twenty-five people first.
He and Shen Jiaojiao walked towards the cave.
They put their hands under their noses to check for breath; they were still alive, just drugged and unconscious.
"Could these people be the ones who disappeared from the imperial city before?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.
The cave was very large, and the people on the ground included men and women, young and old.
It's getting late today, and it's really difficult to handle things at this hour.
"By the way, I have a manor in the suburbs. I originally planned to use it to house poor women and train them to make a living. It's currently vacant, and the Wenrou mother and daughter are helping to manage it. We can move the people there and then go over to question them first thing tomorrow morning."
After Shen Jiaojiao finished speaking, Chu Tianling also thought it was a good idea.
Fortunately, all five carriages were available, so we could use them to transport them over.
It was late at night, and Chu Tianling was reluctant to let Shen Jiaojiao leave. Just then, Zhou Tianqi, who had eaten and drunk his fill, appeared.
Now that they've eaten their fill, they're in a particularly good mood, and they're very enthusiastic when they hear that they're going to give the estate to someone.
“Your Highness, let me go. I know that estate well.”
