Everyone present was trembling with fear.
"Sir, we are truly innocent. We really did nothing."
"Please, sir, have mercy on us!"
"If you can spare us, we will do anything for you, even risk our lives."
Shen Lian snorted coldly: "You dogs are really asking for it. Do you think I need dogs like you?"
Shen Lian slashed down again.
With a whoosh, the sharp embroidered spring knife sliced off half of the old man's lower leg.
The scene was filled with screams.
Everyone was pale and trembling all over.
They had no idea what to do.
"Everyone says immortals are good, but only children and grandchildren can't forget them." Shen Lian walked over and stood in front of an infant in swaddling clothes.
"It seems you still don't understand the methods of our Embroidered Uniform Guard."
"Since you are unwilling to talk, then you may all die one by one."
"Let's start with this child."
The scene was filled with sobbing.
The baby being raped cried until its face was red.
The baby's voice was already hoarse from crying.
Wang Laowu was at a loss for what to do.
He turned around and glanced at the people beside him: "Fourth brother, sixth brother, eighth brother, seventh brother."
I am the head of the household. You who entered the palace today, what are you all taking out?
You all need to think about this carefully.
"You bastards, do you want to see our entire Wang family wiped out?"
The men shook their heads blankly, their eyes vacant.
Wang Laowu stood up and walked up to the group of people. He raised his foot and kicked each of them in the face.
"You sons of bitches."
"You guys need to think this through carefully. What exactly are you shipping out?"
These people racked their brains but still couldn't figure out what had happened.
Suddenly, Wang Laoliu seemed to remember something: "My lord, don't make a move. When we left the palace today..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lian quickly walked up to Wang Laoliu and held the Embroidered Spring Blade to his neck: "Tell me... what exactly happened?"
"Two palace maids carried two chamber pots, and they personally placed those two chamber pots in the middle of all the chamber pots," Wang Laoliu said hastily, trembling. "We didn't pay any attention to it."
However, when we were transporting manure out, the palace maids and eunuchs always avoided us because they thought it was too dirty.
"Where are those two chamber pots?" Shen Lian roared. "Take me to see them right now!"
Shen Lian slapped him across the face.
"Those two chamber pots disappeared halfway there," Wang Laoliu said, his voice trembling.
"You son of a bitch, if you lie to me again, I'll chop your head in half with one stroke."
How could that chamber pot filled with excrement have vanished? Who would have taken it?
"You adults don't know this, but it was too cold in the morning. We had just left the palace when Wu Lao Er stopped us and offered to treat us to drinks."
"You guys went drinking?" Shen Lian slapped him across the face.
"No, no," Wang Laoliu said, covering his face. "We were just standing by the roadside when Wu Lao Er handed me a wine jug and a bag of peanuts."
We drank it standing right there on the street.
"We drank and chatted, and after finishing a pot of wine, we were all a little dizzy."
Then we went back home and unloaded all the manure buckets.
Later, when cleaning the buckets, they discovered that two chamber pots filled with excrement were missing.
"Who is Wu Lao Er? Where does he live? Take me to him right now." Shen Lian slapped him several more times.
Wang Laoliu nodded repeatedly.
"Old Wu is only half a street away from our house. I'll take you there now."
The group followed Wang Laoliu and ran wildly.
We arrived at Wu Lao Er's house.
Wang Laoliu shouted at the top of his lungs, "Second Brother, are you home?"
Those Imperial Guards didn't care about any of that.
They rushed over and kicked the door open.
A strong smell of blood wafted over.
Wu Lao Er was lying face down on the table.
A dagger was stuck in his back.
Judging from this, the dagger has already pierced through his back and reached his heart.
Fresh blood flowed down Wu Lao Er's back.
Because of the freezing weather, the blood had already frozen.
Next to Wu Lao Er were two chamber pots filled with excrement, but they were empty.
The room was dark, so Shen Lian quickly ordered the Imperial Guards to light the lamps.
He gently touched the inside of the chamber pot.
The two large chamber pots were completely dry, with not a trace of feces inside.
Shen Lian then held the two wooden barrels up to his eyes and stuck his head out to smell them.
These two wooden barrels not only don't smell bad, but they also have a faint baby scent.
Without a doubt, someone inside the palace used two tools to transport Fengfeng and Yueyue out.
This means that the traitor within the palace has not yet been caught.
"Xu Cheng, go to the palace and inform Lord Ling to bring Wang Laoliu to the palace to identify the palace maids."
"promise……"
"The rest of you, keep searching here and see if you can find any clues."
"promise……"
...
On the city gate tower of the capital.
Bai Qi looked at everyone.
"Don't let anyone go, don't let anyone leave the city."
"promise……"
Just then, Jiang Tian, dressed in civilian clothes and wearing a cloak, rode over on horseback.
