After being hungry for a day and a night, Liu Danniu and Liu Erxi's initial fear when they saw Liu Qiang turned into resentment.
The Fourth Prince had not yet appeared. Yuan Ning, sitting in a wheelchair, said indifferently, "The Fourth Prince is such a kind person. He didn't torture you."
"But your father is so ungrateful that he still refuses to confess."
Liu Daniu walked over and asked Liu Qiang, "What kind of evil thing have you done that has implicated me and my brother?"
"My mother said you were a selfish villain. We didn't believe it at first, but now it turns out to be true."
Liu Qiang raised his eyes. His injuries were getting worse and he could already feel the smell of rotting flesh. If he was not treated, he might not survive.
As for his two children, let alone being able to walk out of the palace alive.
He couldn't admit the incident with Concubine Shu, otherwise he would really have no way to survive.
Liu Qiang closed his eyes, remaining unmoved.
Yuan Ning wasn't in a hurry, leisurely gnawing on a chicken leg. When he finished, he looked at Liu Daniu, who was swallowing her saliva, and Liu Erxi, who was squatting nearby with greedy eyes, and said indifferently, "It's not that I don't want to help you, but your father is too stubborn."
"These things have nothing to do with you. Life and death are his business, but he doesn't even care about your life or death."
"How about this, you go and interrogate them yourselves. If you get any useful information, I will reward you with a chicken leg on behalf of the Fourth Prince. If you find out the truth, I will send you out of the palace."
"By then, I'll still be short of two servants, so you should just continue to follow me."
Although Yuan Ning was sitting in a wheelchair at this time, he was followed by two eunuchs serving tea and water, and four guards with swords. He was truly awe-inspiring and imposing.
If you really continue to follow him, life won't be too bad.
Anyway, the man in front of them left home when they were very young and never did anything to raise them. What's more, he now wants to drag them down, so don't blame them for being cruel.
So Liu Danniu and Liu Erxi looked at each other and slowly stood up.
Liu Qiang's originally calm eyes suddenly became panicked, and he asked in disbelief: "You...what are you going to do?"
But the answer he got was the screams of being beaten with canes.
Outside the palace, Yuan Ning saw the Fourth Prince.
He stood alone quietly under the eaves, his eyes fixed on the dry well not far away. The big tree above the dry well provided shade, as if protecting this narrow piece of heaven and earth, making the sunlight become warmer.
Yuan Ning only felt a pain in his heart. No matter what, Concubine Shu and the Third Princess would never be able to survive again.
He wiped away his tears, slowly pushed the wheelchair forward and said, "Your Highness, look forward. Everything will be fine."
Xiao Huaizheng nodded, looked back and said: "You did a good job, but there is no need to rush to find the final result."
"I want to drain his vitality bit by bit until he dies in agony."
Yuan Ning quickly said, "Don't worry, I understand."
Xiao Huaizheng then left and went to Songyue Palace to find Lin Yue.
When Lin Yue saw him, she was surprised and asked, "Did you finish the matter so quickly?"
Xiao Huaizheng said: "There is no rush for that matter, take your time."
He hadn't tortured Liu Qiang enough, and it couldn't end so easily.
"Isn't the Imperial Aunt taking care of the resettlement center? Do you want to go out of the palace and take a look? I'll go with you."
Lin Yue asked in surprise: "You accompany me? Are you free?"
Xiao Huaizheng smiled: "Auntie Huang is my benefactor. As long as Auntie Huang needs me, I will always be here."
Lin Yue said with a sigh, "Young man, your future love life will definitely not be bumpy, believe me."
Xiao Huai lowered his head shyly, his eyes were very warm, no longer showing the gloomy and cold arrogance he had before.
It just so happened that Lin Yue really wanted to go out of the palace to take a look, so she agreed.
When the news reached the Qinzheng Palace, the emperor was very dissatisfied and asked, "When can I replace the fourth brother's legs?"
What about replacing it with his own?
Zhou Dahai was confused and asked, "Does the emperor want to break the fourth prince's legs?"
The emperor sneered: "Wrong, I want to break your legs!"
Zhou Dahai: “…”? ?
"Your Majesty, why don't we leave the palace as well?"
"Ms. Cui from the Zhenguo Mansion is going to the Huguo Temple to burn incense today."
I heard that she looks very much like Princess Ding.
Zhou Dahai was silently making plans, his mouth almost grinning from ear to ear. This was information he had spent five hundred taels of silver to find out.
The emperor was confused and asked, "Which Miss Cui?"
Zhou Dahai couldn't wait to say, "It's Prince Huaiqing's cousin, Cui Tingting."
No matter how foolish the emperor was, he understood what was happening. He immediately laughed in anger and said sarcastically, "What does Cui Tingting's going to burn incense have to do with me?"
Zhou Dahai hadn't noticed the danger yet, and said with a smile: "I heard that she is a rare beauty, who looks very much like... very much like someone from the Jiang family."
Madam Jiang from the Zhenguo Mansion and the mother of Princess Ding were both from the Jiang family. Now that he said this, the emperor should be able to understand, right?
Of course the emperor understood, but he could no longer tolerate it.
They caught Zhou Dahai and beat him up.
"Miss Cui, right?"
"Do you think my fist is big? Does it look like your Miss Cui?"
"The prince's cousin? You know that girl is younger than Huaiqing?"
"You useless bastard, I've had enough of you."
After being beaten violently, Zhou Dahai cried out in pain and knelt down, saying that he was wrong and would never do it again.
But when the prince arrived, the emperor was still furious and said directly, "Your fourth brother has already accompanied your aunt out of the palace, and you are only here now?"
What benefits can you get?
The prince was surprised and asked, "My fourth brother has gone out of the palace with the imperial aunt. Why are you so angry?"
"Didn't you say that my son is two years older than the Imperial Aunt?... It's best not to stay together to avoid misunderstandings."
The emperor leaned back in anger and cursed, "Fool, if you go alone, you will definitely arouse suspicion. Can't you take your wife with you?"
"Old Four has all the good things going for him. What use are you?"
The prince: "..." He wanted to go, but a nephew was always hanging around his aunt all day long. Not to mention his father and mother, he even wanted to slap himself.
As for the fourth brother.
Isn't that still young? It will be embarrassing to follow you when you grow up.
"Father, I'd better continue to follow up on the food and fodder issue. It will take at least three months to reach the border while carrying heavy loads."
"If you want to arrive before winter, you have to leave in July."
The emperor then remembered that delivering food and fodder was the most important matter, so he said, "Okay, you can follow up on this matter for the time being."
"As for your imperial aunt, I will follow up personally."
Crown Prince: "..." Father, what nonsense are you talking about?
Zhou Dahai was also shocked and forgot to wipe away his tears. He thought to himself, "I don't want to find a substitute for you, but who told you to expose yourself?"
What happened to letting the prince take the blame?
Aren't you admitting your guilt?
Zhou Dahai cried even harder instantly!
