However, Chen Qin, Cheng Kong, Chen Lai Fu and Nanny Gui were really stubborn. After being tortured, except for some reaction when being tortured, they were like wooden men at other times and could not say anything.
"What should I do?" Ling Luojin was the most troubled.
Just then, the sound of a wheelchair turning came from far away, and it was Baili Yanqing coming over.
"Yanqing, why are you here at this hour?" Li Qian asked.
Baili Yanqing looked at the worried people and replied, "I'll help you."
"Then you try it." Li Qian turned sideways and let Baili Yanqing and Zhu Yi pass.
The guards inside all withdrew, and the wheelchair stopped in front of the four people. Baili Yanqing sat in the wheelchair and looked up at the four people tied to the iron frame: "Chen Laifu, you are Chen Qin's younger brother. Just because you were late for half a quarter of an hour, you were forced to become a eunuch and sent to the prince. But Chen Qin inherited the title of Marquis of Ji State and enjoyed wealth and glory. How unlucky is your fate?"
After hearing this, Chen Laifu, who had not reacted at all, opened his eyes wide and looked at Baili Yanqing: "How did you know?"
The word "heart-breaking" was taught to Baili Yanqing by Su Chenyu, and it is indeed the most cruel method.
Zhu Yi opened a small wooden box, and inside it were two longevity locks: "This was found in the secret compartment of the Chen Mansion. If it weren't for these longevity locks, who would have known that the old lady gave birth to twins?"
The longevity lock has the word "辰" and a name engraved on it. The elder brother is Chen Qin and the younger brother is Chen Hai, who is now Chen Lai Fu.
In fact, Chen Qin and Chen Lai Fu look 50% similar, but one is a eunuch and the other is a king. Even if the two really look alike, normal people would just think it is a coincidence.
Chen Laifu stared at Baili Yanqing. The dim candlelight in the prison shone on his face, making it so dark that Chen Laifu couldn't see his expression. "Fate is so unpredictable. Who can do anything about it?"
Over the years, Chen Lai Fu has accepted his fate and he can't turn back.
"Who is the master behind you?" Zhu Yi asked.
Chen Laifu stopped talking, and Chen Qin smiled smugly: "You will never know."
Baili Yanqing said in a cold tone: "The letters you hid in the secret compartment under the floor tiles of the study that you had not yet destroyed should be in the emperor's hands now."
Chen Qin looked at him in shock. How could he find it?
"The letter is written in Xixia language. Your Chen family is really amazing!"
Even Baili Yanqing was shocked when he saw those letters.
Forty years ago, a war broke out between Dayu and Xixia. That battle, which lasted for nearly a year, was simply a nightmare for the soldiers and people of Dayu.
For the stability of Dayu, the late emperor decided to negotiate peace. At that time, Lord Chen and Lord Jian were ordered to lead the delegation to Western Xia.
Unexpectedly, Xixia made a huge request, tore up the treaty, and detained the delegation. The late emperor wanted to send secret guards to rescue them, but no one in the court was willing to take the lead. It was Madam Chen who volunteered to lead the secret guards to Xixia to rescue her husband.
A group of people risked their lives to rescue the badly injured Lord Chen, but Lord Jian could not resist the temptation and defected to Western Xia.
The moment they heard the news, the soldiers and people of Dayu were extremely angry, especially the soldiers on the front line, who fought back the Western Xia troops in one go, which was a miracle.
Compared with Lord Jian's cowardice and fear of death, Lord Chen showed his integrity, so the late emperor appointed him as the first governor of Ji State. The story of Madam Chen going deep into Western Xia to save her husband moved the late emperor greatly, and he respected her very much.
But now it seems that everything is a joke.
The old Ji State official who seems to be of iron character might actually be a traitor who is willing to commit adultery.
