Chapter 330: Too Cruel
Lu Jiangnian walked up to Feng Wei, looked him up and down, then turned back to the emperor and said, "If I'm too gentle, I'm afraid I won't be able to get anything out of you."
The emperor understood immediately: "Just ask, I have seen all kinds of scenes, I don't care about this matter."
However, Concubine Zhao is a woman, and I'm afraid she can't bear to see bloody things.
"Princess Zhao..."
Concubine Zhao spoke first: "Your Majesty, even if you skin this man alive in front of me, I won't even blink. I must stay here."
The emperor didn't say anything else. He did have good intentions, but it was a pity that others didn't appreciate it.
Concubine Zhao's personality is not at all likable.
Lu Jiangnian's face was exceptionally stern, his thin lips pursed into a ruthless arc: "Feng Wei, you are really brave. You actually dared to assassinate the third prince. I will give you another chance."
His voice was not loud, but it lowered the temperature in the room a lot.
"Tell me, who ordered you to do that?"
Feng Wei's eyelids moved, but he remained silent.
When meeting the emperor, no sharp weapons were allowed. Lu Jiangnian's soft sword had been left outside the door. He stretched out a finger and tapped Feng Wei's acupoints a few times. Feng Wei immediately fell to the ground and twitched.
His pupils suddenly contracted and his body trembled unconsciously. It was obvious that he was suffering great torture.
"Now, are you in so much pain that you want to bite your tongue off and commit suicide?"
Feng Wei looked ashen, and spoke for the first time: "Kill... me"
Lu Jiangnian sneered: "You are not afraid of death, but you refuse to confess. It seems that you are loyal."
The Third Prince spoke up at the right time: "The Crown Prince is the dog that is most loyal to him. Lu Jiangnian, you still haven't found out anything yet?"
"Are you going to shield the prince?"
Lu Jiangnian didn't even look at the Third Prince. He squatted down and looked at Feng Wei, who was twitching and distorted, expressionlessly: "If you don't want to tell me, then let's see how hard your bones are."
Then, he tapped Feng Wei's chest a few more times. Feng Wei's face suddenly turned purple, and it seemed as if he couldn't breathe at all.
Feng Wei's eyes were bulging and veins were popping out, looking very scary.
Lu Jiangnian took advantage of the moment and patted Feng Wei twice.
Feng Wei was suddenly able to breathe smoothly, and after a few coughs, his complexion looked a little better. The feeling of suffocation and being on the verge of death was really terrifying.
Lu Jiangnian sneered, "Say it or not."
Feng Wei still looked unmoved.
Lu Jiangnian's eyes sharpened: "It's interesting, but I don't know if you can hold on any longer."
As he said this, he placed his palm on Feng Wei's collarbone, turned it into a hook, and used his internal strength to pierce Feng Wei's skin. Just like that, he forcibly pulled Feng Wei's collarbone out.
Feng Wei let out a scream that was not like a human voice, blood gushed out from his chest, and he almost fainted from the pain.
Concubine Zhao couldn't help but look away. He actually broke bones with his bare hands. It was too bloody. She really underestimated Lu Jiangnian's cruelty.
The third prince shuddered. Lu Jiangnian was so cruel.
Lu Jiangnian placed the bloody bones in front of Feng Wei and said, "Whether you tell me or not, this is just the beginning. From now on, if you refuse to answer my questions every time, I will tear your bones apart one by one."
Feng Wei is dying. From the time he was arrested until now, he has been keeping alive in the hope that one day he can see the person he wants to see.
At this point, he was in despair.
He had seen Lu Jiangnian's interrogation method once, and it was really worse than death.
He didn't want to fall into Lu Jiangnian's hands. After suffering excruciating pain, he still couldn't escape the fate of death.
Never mind. People like him really deserve to die.
Although the development of the matter was different from what was originally predicted, since it has come to the attention of the emperor, I believe the second prince should be satisfied.
There was no need for him to hold on any longer, he felt, and he couldn't hold on any longer.
Feng Wei finally shouted out, "It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who ordered me to assassinate the Third Prince."
After saying this, he was about to bite his tongue to commit suicide.
Lu Jiangnian was quick to remove his jaw.
"Want to die?"
“It’s not that easy.”
The Third Prince immediately jumped up and said, "Father, you heard it. Feng Wei said it was the Crown Prince who ordered it."
Just at this moment, the prince arrived.
He calmly saluted the emperor: "Father, why is Feng Wei here?"
The emperor's face was exceptionally calm, and he looked at the prince with a sharp gaze: "I wanted to ask you something, but you asked me instead."
The Third Prince rushed to the Crown Prince impatiently and said, "Stop pretending. You sent Feng Wei to my house to assassinate me, but I managed to evade him and I caught him. Do you still want to deny it?"
"Prince, I will never let you go."
The prince suddenly realized what was going on when he heard this. He looked at the emperor with clear eyes and said, "Father, I swear by my deceased mother that what Feng Wei did was definitely not ordered by me."
"In fact, he disappeared a few days ago. I have sent people to look for him and asked the Sun family to help find out."
The third prince snorted coldly: "The Sun family's words cannot be believed."
"You said you didn't know, but Feng Wei is your man. Everyone knows that. Do you think you can deny it?"
After hearing this, the prince asked him again, "Third brother, how could I be so stupid? If I really wanted to assassinate you, why would I use Feng Wei?"
"Besides, the fight between you and me has not reached the point of life and death. There is no need for me to assassinate you."
These words made a lot of sense, and the emperor's expression softened a little.
"You should have heard what he shouted just now. How do you explain this?"
The prince paced and walked to the side of Feng Wei who was breathing hard. His eyes were dim and he said, "I never thought that you belonged to someone else."
"You have been with me for nearly ten years. Who has such great ability to force you to do things for him?"
"I treat you well every day."
The last sigh made Feng Wei close his eyes in shame.
He is too ashamed to see the prince!
Lu Jiangnian watched the emperor's movements out of the corner of his eye.
The emperor took in Feng Wei's expression and must have become suspicious about the matter.
Then, we can take the next step.
"Then, Your Highness, can you provide strong evidence to prove that Feng Wei was instructed by someone else?"
Concubine Zhao said unwillingly: "Words are useless. What if the prince really wants to do the opposite? Your Majesty, you can't let the prince get away with it with just a few words."
"If this is the case, I will throw myself headfirst into the ground in front of Your Majesty and beg you to conduct a thorough investigation."
The emperor's forehead twitched, "Alright, if you want to die, go back to your palace. I don't even bother to watch."
The third prince took out a token from his bosom and said, "Father, this is the token I found on Feng Wei. Prince, isn't this yours?"
The prince walked over, picked up the token, and shook his head affirmatively: "I have never seen this token before. The token of the East Palace is not like this."
Lu Jiangnian looked up and his body was shocked.
The emperor obviously noticed his entire reaction and gave him a serious look.
Lu Jiangnian looked at him, then raised his hand and touched the wound on his chest.
His fingers, still stained with Feng Wei's blood, fell on his clothes, leaving red spots.
The emperor seemed to be thinking about something, so he said to Concubine Zhao, "You leave first."
