The sky was filled with the glow of dawn, but inside the Zhaoyu prison, it was eerie and terrifying, with screams echoing everywhere.
"Squeak~"
The prison door opened, and Qin Yue Zhao strode into the cell.
Several members of the Huo family army knelt down in unison: "Your Highness!"
"Did you confess?" Qin Yue Zhao asked calmly.
The older leader of the Huo family army hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Highness, this man is very stubborn and refuses to admit that he has colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country. We are trying to find a solution..."
Qin Yue Zhao smiled dismissively.
"Hmph, you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. All of you, step back. No one is allowed to approach without my permission."
The Huo family army prostrated themselves in unison: "Yes!"
After everyone had left, Qin Yue Zhao went straight into the innermost cell.
Jia Dafu was chained to a pillar, his body covered in blood.
Upon seeing Qin Yuezhao, instead of begging for mercy, he boasted, "Qin Yuezhao, kill me if you want, just give me a quick death, I know nothing!"
Previously, he was worried that Qin Yuezhao would kill his family, and he was willing to go bankrupt to save his life.
Now that they have suffered so much, they still refuse to utter a single soft word.
This demonstrates the immense power and influence behind this incident.
Qin Yue Zhao stepped forward and removed the shackles from his body.
The chains loosened, and Jia Dafu, feeling completely drained, collapsed to the ground.
Qin Yue Zhao slowly sat down in the chair, crossed her legs, and gave a playful smile.
"Jia Dafu, I have never mistreated the common people or suppressed merchants, so why are you colluding with the enemy?"
Jia Dafu looked at the tea on the table, feeling a tightness in his throat and his cracked lips move slightly.
"Ha, you've treated me well, yet you've bankrupted me and you still say you've treated me well?"
"I just wanted to leave the city and return to the capital. How did you accuse me of treason? What evidence do you have?"
"Evidence?" Qin Yue Zhao laughed.
She obviously had no evidence, otherwise she would have resorted to torture to extract a confession.
But she definitely won't tell anyone.
At this moment, Chen Wan'er threw the Northern Barbarian spy into the prison cell like a sandbag.
"Bang!"
The bearded man was thrown face-first into the dirt.
What happened?
Why didn't Qin Yuezhao die? Could it be that the plan failed?
Because they had been trapped in the dungeon, they had no idea what had happened in the past few days.
He thought the Northern Barbarian Prince and the Great Khan's plan was flawless, but little did he know that Qin Yue Zhao had already seen through it.
