Chapter 289: Interrogation
Chen Fenghe casually took out a horse whip from the space, raised the whip and swung it, three beautiful arcs cut through the sky, followed by three crisp "pa pa pa" sounds, and it fell crisply on the three people.
"Ahhhh!" Accompanied by three screams of pain, Qin Lizheng, Qin Jian and Qin Chang fell to the ground, covering their legs that were bleeding from being whipped!
"You...Chen Fenghe! How dare you hit us!" Qin Lizheng cursed angrily.
Chen Fenghe ignored them and swung the whip in his hand down heavily like a dance.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" The three of them rolled on the ground howling like ghosts, but the whip seemed to have life and not a single one of it missed their target.
In a short while, the three of them were covered in bruises and blood.
Chen Fenghe threw away the blood-stained whip in disgust.
If she didn't think these three people were dirty and avoided suspicion in ancient times, she would be more inclined to use her boxing, punching them hard into the flesh like sandbags.
Using whips now is already too easy for them!
Chen Fenghe casually pulled out a clean whip from the space, played with the tip of the whip, and said calmly: "Tell me! Do you plan to confess on your own? Or do you plan to be whipped by the girl and confess yourself?"
The three rolled on the ground in pain. Qin Jian was the first to lose patience and begged for mercy, groaning, "Cousin-in-law...ah!"
Before he could finish his words, he was whipped in the face again, and blood immediately gushed out.
"Who is your cousin's wife? Are you worthy of her?" Chen Fenghe's clear and clear voice came coldly.
Qin Jian quickly changed his words and said, "I...I said the wrong thing. It was Shen...Madam Shen, I will tell you everything you want me to say!"
Chen Fenghe sneered, "You secretly kidnapped my mother-in-law. Were you instructed by someone? Who instructed you?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Jian subconsciously glanced at Qin Lizheng, but fearing another beating, he didn't care and immediately said, "It's...it's General Qu's order. I heard from my father that General Qu had been in love with my aunt for a long time, but unfortunately, my aunt later entered the palace and became the queen, so he gave up the idea. Now that my aunt is in trouble, General Qu...has become lustful again, so he asked us to cooperate in a play to 'sell' my aunt to a brothel, and he would appear as a hero to save the beauty and capture my aunt's heart. General Qu said that if we succeeded, he would forgive our crime of exile and even gave us a reward of 200 taels of silver in advance..."
Sure enough, it was exactly as she had guessed.
Qin Jian looked at Chen Fenghe, his heart moved, and he suddenly said loudly: "Madam Shen, actually, if you think about it carefully, it is a great joy for the eldest aunt to be loved by General Qu! If General Qu keeps the eldest aunt, then our Qin family, and Madam Shen, wouldn't we all be able to prosper...ah!"
Chen Fenghe whipped it again!
What a beast! He still has the ambition to sacrifice Qin Mengyue for benefits.
This was the first time Qin Chang had heard of these things. He was furious and said, "Great! You, the Second Branch, received the reward and repaid General Qu's promise, yet you kept it a secret from our Third Branch! You are truly good uncles and cousins! Where's that two hundred taels of silver? Our Third Branch must get half!"
Chen Fenghe: “…”
As expected, none of the Qin family's concubines are of good origin.
Qin Jian was furious: "Get out of here! It's already this late, and you're still trying to steal money? I'm telling you the truth! When our Second Branch becomes prosperous, your Third Branch will be begging us for mercy! Don't try to do that again!"
Chen Fenghe impatiently whipped them a few more times, and the two of them stopped arguing and cried out in pain.
Chen Fenghe continued to ask, "What happens next? Does Qu Wenmin have any other instructions for you?"
Hearing this, Qin Jian looked at Qin Lizheng in confusion, then shook his head: "No... Madam Shen, please be magnanimous. We were confused for a moment, and we did it for the good of our aunt. We didn't really want to sell her to a brothel... Now that General Qu no longer trusts us, we... we really don't have any other bad intentions..."
Chen Fenghe was somewhat disappointed.
She had already guessed that they were bribed by Qu Wenmin to sell Qin Mengyue to a brothel, and now she was just verifying the facts.
She originally thought that she could find out about Qu Wenmin's other plans, but unfortunately, Qu Wenmin probably saw that the Qin family was stupid, so he no longer trusted them.
However, even if she didn't continue to do bad things, she didn't believe a single word Qin Jian said when he surrendered and begged for mercy.
She punished these three people today. If she let them go out of mercy, she and Qin Mengyue would be the ones to suffer when they returned.
Chen Fenghe's eyes darkened, and he was about to take out a few wolves from the space.
She must give a reasonable reason why these three people did not return alive.
Otherwise, it would harm Chen Wu, Yuan Xun and other escorting officers.
Being attacked and killed by a wild wolf is a reasonable reason.
In addition to the wild wolf, she also prepared a packet of medicine that could make people stupid and dumb, which she intended to give to Qin Chang.
Although everyone in the Qin family is a good person, Qin Changdao was indeed unaware of the betrayal of Qin Mengyue. Killing him for this matter would somewhat violate her principles, but she couldn't let him tell anyone about what happened today and ruin Qin Mengyue's reputation, so being stupid and mute is better than being dead.
That's the best she could do.
However, just as she was about to move, she suddenly heard a loud scolding!
Then, several arrows shot towards Chen Fenghe and the Qin family members with a swift sound of "whoosh".
Chen Fenghe spun around neatly and hid behind the tree trunk. He looked out carefully and found that there were three or four people shooting arrows, all dressed like Northern Rong soldiers. He couldn't help but frown.
How could these Northern Rong soldiers discover this place so quickly without arriving first?
Qin Lizheng, Qin Jian and Qin Chang were also lucky and were not hit by arrows.
Chen Fenghe pulled out a silenced pistol from the space and pointed it at the three members of the Qin family and the several Beirong soldiers opposite.
This is the quickest way to deal with so many people, but it's a bit troublesome to explain later...
