Late at night, Prince's Mansion.
Although it was almost midnight, Yun Li still did not sleep.
All memorials from various ministries were gathered here.
Normally there aren't so many memorials, but during these troubled times, the number of memorials is almost half more than usual.
The key point is that many memorials have only one meaning.
I want money!
Although he had tried his best to solve part of the problem, the court still could not stop spending the money.
No wonder that bastard Lao Liu is always trying to find ways to cheat people out of their money.
Just as Yun Li was reviewing the last few memorials, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Your Highness, Cui Wenjing has been captured!"
...
...
Hearing the sound outside the door, Yun Li's face suddenly changed.
Cui Wenjing!
This bastard!
It’s really him!
"Come in!"
A fierce murderous intent suddenly exploded in Yun Li's eyes, and he wished he could tear Cui Wenjing into pieces.
Fortunately, I was more careful, otherwise, I don’t know how long this bastard would have been hiding by my side!
Damn it!
Soon, the guard who came to report the news pushed the door open.
"When was he captured? Tell me the details!"
Yun Li's face looked very bad.
No wonder I’ve always been cheated by that bastard Lao Liu!
Lao Liu has placed people around me, how can I not be cheated?
Under Yun Li's questioning, the guard quickly told the story of the arrest.
They followed the charcoal shop owner, wanting to see where he was going, but they were discovered by the owner.
Although the shop owner was very skilled, the people Yun Li sent out were no pushovers either.
The two sides fought fiercely in the alley.
They wanted to capture him alive, but the shop owner committed suicide due to his serious injuries.
However, they found the letter sent by Cui Ping from the shop owner.
As expected, the letter contained the news that Yun Li wanted to use the fake Yinkeng Yun Zheng.
After intercepting the letter, they immediately followed Yun Li's prior orders and arrested Cui Wenjing in one fell swoop, claiming that Yun Li had something urgent to deal with.
Cui Ping, who delivered the letter, was also arrested.
Now, Cui Mansion has been surrounded by troops led by Qiao Yanxian, and not even a mosquito can get out.
As he spoke, the guards presented the letter they had found on the shop owner who had committed suicide.
Yun Li took it.
The content of the letter was simple, but there was no letterhead.
It is impossible to tell from the letter who this letter is addressed to.
However, it is easy to guess that it was most likely given to the sixth child.
After confirming that they had captured the person alive, Yun Li couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, we caught him alive!
Although he was sure that Cui Wenjing was Yun Zheng's man, he still wanted to ask Cui Wenjing why he was working for that bastard Lao Liu, and also wanted to ask if there were other people lurking around him.
We must also destroy Lao Liu’s intelligence network in the imperial city in one fell swoop!
He wants to cut all those people into pieces!
Yun Li took a deep breath and asked through gritted teeth: "Where is Cui Wenjing now?"
"She has been taken to the inner chamber of the Crown Prince's Palace!"
The guard replied.
"very good!"
Yun Li showed a ferocious smile on his face, "Come on, follow me to meet this traitor!"
Soon, Yun Li came to the eunuch where Cui Wenjing was imprisoned.
Cui Wenjing was handcuffed and had a dirty rag stuffed in his mouth. He looked very miserable.
As soon as Yun Li arrived, two guards immediately carried up a chair.
"Bring it up!"
Yun Li sat down, but his resentful gaze never left Cui Wenjing.
Soon, the guards brought Cui Wenjing to Yun Li and removed the cloth from his mouth.
"Cui Wenjing! I trusted you so much, how dare you betray me?"
Yun Li was so angry that he rushed forward and kicked Cui Wenjing hard in the heart.
"ah……"
Cui Wenjing screamed and fell to the ground.
However, Yun Li was still not satisfied, and punched and kicked Cui Wenjing again.
"Who gave you the courage to betray me?"
"I treated you well, has your conscience been eaten by a dog?"
"How have I ever been sorry for you?"
Yun Li became angrier as he spoke, and kicked him a few more times.
If he didn't want to save Cui Wenjing's life, he would have wanted to cut Cui Wenjing into pieces with his own hands.
“Ahem…”
After being kicked so hard by Yun Li many times in a row, Cui Wenjing began to vomit blood.
Yun Li suppressed the urge to kick Cui Wenjing to death and shouted angrily, "Tell me, who are your accomplices?"
Cui Wenjing lay on the ground, twitching, wailing, "I... don't know... cough cough..."
As he spoke, Cui Wenjing coughed up another mouthful of blood.
"You don't know? Do you think I'm a fool?"
Yun Li looked at Cui Wenjing coldly, "I am giving you a chance now. If you don't cherish it, I will not only make you wish you were dead, but also make everyone in your Cui family be buried with you!"
Yun Li became furious.
I must ask clearly to see if there are any people like Lao Liu around.
"I really don't know!"
Cui Wenjing wailed in pain, "Even if Your Highness kills my entire clan, I still don't know..."
He can't say!
If you don't say anything, maybe you can still survive.
But if I say it, then there really is no hope at all.
"I never realized before that you, Cui Wenjing, are so tough!"
Yun Li was so angry that he laughed: "It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin! Come, torture me!"
Yun Li was too lazy to talk to Cui Wenjing anymore.
He just didn't believe that a coward like Cui Wenjing could withstand torture.
Under Yun Li's order, the guards immediately tortured Cui Wenjing.
Soon, Cui Wenjing's shrill screams were heard from the inner prison.
However, no matter how the guards tortured him, Cui Wenjing insisted that he knew nothing.
Only when Cui Wenjing was on the verge of death did Yun Li order his men to stop the torture.
Yun Li's face was gloomy, staring at the dying Cui Wenjing, "Are all Lao Liu's people so stubborn?"
Laoliu’s people?
Hearing Yun Li's words, Cui Wenjing, who was originally only breathing his last breath, suddenly shuddered.
After all this fuss, Yun Li thought he was Yun Zheng’s man?
You should have told me that earlier!
Cui Wenjing was almost crying.
If he had known that Yun Li thought he was Yun Zheng's man, why would he have gritted his teeth and persevered!
Fuck your grandma!
Cui Wenjing felt so much pain in his body that he kept cursing in his heart.
"Yun Li... cough cough..."
Cui Wenjing raised his head with difficulty, a sinister smile appeared on his bloodstained face, "I advise you to let me go. You know the temper of the Sixth Prince! If you dare to kill my entire family, the Sixth Prince will definitely not let you go!"
"You still dare to threaten me?"
Yun Li was furious. "Do you think that Lao Liu, that bastard, would go to war with the imperial court for you? In his eyes, you are nothing but a dog! Have you forgotten how he treated you outside Sifang County?"
Yun Li's eyes were cold and he clenched his fists tightly.
This bastard!
How dare you call me by my name?
Forget about Lao Liu threatening me!
Now, even his dog dares to threaten him?
Damn it!
Be it Lao Liu or those bastards under him, they all deserve to die!
Just when Yun Li was furious, a woman deep in the palace also received the news that Cui Wenjing had been arrested.
"Master, what should we do now?"
The old maid frowned and asked the woman who was bathing in a large wooden tub behind the screen.
The woman poured some hot water on herself as if nothing had happened and replied coldly: "Then let Cui Wenjing shut up forever!"
The old maid opened her mouth slightly, frowning, "According to reliable information, Cui Wenjing is not imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice Prison, nor in the Sky Prison. He is most likely imprisoned in the inner prison of the Crown Prince's Mansion..."
"This... is a troublesome matter!"
The woman frowned, but her face remained calm...
