Chapter 800 Clash - Torture
"Drag him away, drag him away right now and beat him severely."
General Ji's entire body was trembling. If he weren't so weak, he would have loved to beat this rebellious son to death himself.
"Grandfather, you rest for a bit, I'll go take a look."
Ji Wenxuan glanced at General Ji. To this day, he had never liked the old general. However, as a junior, he was so angry that the old general was trembling. He had no choice but to help the old general sit down first, and then followed him out with a gloomy face.
This time, he would never give Uncle Ji another chance to turn things around.
The fifty strokes of the military rod for Uncle Ji were completed under the watchful eye of Ji Wenxuan. Only after watching Uncle Ji, who was barely clinging to life, being dragged away did Ji Wenxuan return to the front hall with a slight sense of satisfaction.
"Young General Ji, Young General Ji."
An urgent voice came from behind; it was Qingfeng rushing over.
"Guard Qingfeng, haven't you gone back yet?"
Ji Wenxuan looked him over, his eyes filled with doubt.
Qingfeng, without bothering to explain, hurriedly said, "Young General, our Emperor has disappeared."
"What?"
Ji Wenxuan was startled upon hearing this. Just as he was about to ask for details, Yun Yichen hurriedly walked in from outside with his men.
When did His Majesty disappear?
Yun Yichen's words immediately caught Qingfeng's attention. He turned around, bowed to Yun Yichen, and then said, "It was probably last night. When we arrived at the border today, His Highness personally went to invite His Majesty to get out of the carriage, but when the curtain was lifted, His Majesty was nowhere to be seen. Upon further inquiry, the people guarding the carriage said that on the return journey last night, it seemed that His Majesty had experienced a period of amnesia."
Amnesia? That's clearly just being drugged.
Yun Yichen added in his mind, but did not say it aloud in front of everyone.
"If I'm not mistaken, the Imperial Uncle should have been taken away by the Emperor of Jin's men."
Yun Yichen gave his judgment directly. Ji Wenxuan didn't understand why Yun Yichen was so certain. Seeing him leave in a hurry, Ji Wenxuan didn't care about General Ji and quickly followed him out.
Inside the Wei army's camp at the border, Bai Moqin sat anxiously in the main seat.
Hearing someone enter, he hurriedly asked, "Is there news from Father Emperor?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Yichen walked in from outside, accompanied by Ji Wenxuan and an unfamiliar face.
"I've heard about His Majesty's situation. What about the spies you caught earlier?"
Yun Yichen spoke first. Bai Moqin didn't understand what he meant, but seeing his anxious expression, she quickly had someone bring the deputy general up.
Looking at the man in front of him who had become a deputy general in his thirties, Yun Yichen's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. "Speak, what exactly is your master's purpose?"
Before today, Yun Yichen always thought that the old man wanted to dominate the world and become the overlord of the world.
Judging from his actions today, I'm afraid their purpose is far more than this, or rather, attacking the Great Zhou is only one of them.
"snort!"
The lieutenant knew he had been exposed from the moment he was captured. Now, seeing these strangers questioning him, he simply raised his head high and refused to answer.
Yun Yichen wasn't sure if the vice-general knew, but his expression betrayed him.
"Zhong Lin, make your move."
Yun Yichen didn't have that much time to deal with him. Now that the Emperor Wei had been taken away by the old man, even if the old man wouldn't do anything to him right now, who could be sure that he wouldn't do something else to the Emperor Wei?
Upon seeing this, Zhong Lin personally stepped forward and grabbed the deputy general. With a snap, the deputy general's arm was severed.
They were all tough men, and even enemy spies who had risen to the rank of deputy general, so they naturally considered this pain to be nothing more than a minor incident.
Just as a smile appeared on his lips, he was thrown back by another sound on his shoulder.
"What's this? Ah..."
The question had barely been raised when Zhong Lin removed the bone again.
Zhong Lin repeated this several times as if he were playing with a toy, until the deputy general's forehead was covered in sweat.
"What? Deputy General, have you thought it through? What exactly is your master's purpose?"
The lieutenant had never imagined that the pain of losing an arm would torment him like this. He glanced at Yun Yichen and shook his head.
"This general has no idea what you're talking about."
After he finished speaking forcefully, his other arm was also dislocated, and then the same trick began again.
The lieutenant thought Zhong Lin would target the first hand again, but to his surprise, he switched to the second hand without warning.
But that wasn't the most terrifying part. Yun Yichen slowly said, "The deputy general probably doesn't know who I am, does he? I am Yun Yichen, the Grand Secretary of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who can make children cry. And my subordinate's most skilled skill is to perfectly dislocate and reattach all of a person's bones."
At this point, Yun Yichen glanced at his deputy general and said meaningfully, "I wonder how many bones the general is confident he can break before he loses his last bit of strength?"
Yun Yichen's words were eerie, causing the lieutenant to shudder. Before he could recover from the chilling words, pain swept through his body again.
He didn't know if it was just his imagination, but his hand, which hadn't hurt that much before, suddenly started to ache terribly.
The deputy general's mind began to waver as he thought about how many more times he would have to endure the pain of broken bones.
"Just kill me!"
The lieutenant was truly seeking death; even beheading would only leave a small scar, but the endless pain was the most terrifying thing.
"Death? Do you think someone who was raised and taught by the old man from childhood would let you die so easily?"
Yun Yichen was certain that this deputy general knew a lot of things; otherwise, the old man would not have placed him in such an important position.
As expected, after hearing Yun Yichen mention the old man again, the deputy general's already fearful mood intensified.
Zhong Lin raised his arm and twisted his neck at the right moment, his eyes scanning him up and down as if searching for the next target.
"I'll talk!"
The lieutenant finally succumbed to his fear and spoke.
"You should have said that earlier, so you wouldn't have had to suffer so much."
Yun Yichen's face was expressionless. He glanced at Bai Moqin indifferently, and Bai Moqin immediately handed the banknotes that someone had brought to the deputy general.
"Write down everything you know. If you dare to conceal even the slightest thing, don't blame me for being impolite to you."
Yun Yichen was no pushover; even just his presence made the lieutenant feel immense pressure. To avoid further discomfort, the lieutenant readily nodded.
"No, I will definitely tell you everything I know."
Under Zhong Lin's watchful gaze, the lieutenant quickly began writing on the paper until he had filled an entire page, at which point he slowly put down his pen.
Upon seeing this, Zhong Lin immediately reached for it, but the deputy general stopped him first, saying, "I have one more condition."
