"No, no, no! Princess, please don't be angry. Ask again. If I know, I will definitely answer. Just don't lock me up."
The man was frightened and quickly waved his hands, refusing to give in no matter what.
How could these people be so unreasonable? They were even scarier than the master!
"Think about it carefully. If you return to the Wang family now, your master won't be suspicious, and I can do you a favor. You can still live a good life in the Wang family in the future. But if you don't tell the truth, your life will be completely ruined."
Gu Yunni's face was indifferent, no longer as playful as before.
"This... Princess, it's not that I don't want to tell the truth, it's just that I have nothing to say. If I really tell it, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive even if I return to the Wang family."
The guard was almost driven to tears. He held Gu Yunni's legs tightly and kept begging for mercy.
"Why am I willing to stay in the Wang family? Isn't it because Master Wang has a soft spot for me? I've helped him do so many bad things over the years. If I tell the truth, I'll lose my life. I beg you, please let me go."
He cried with tears and snot, just wanting to make Gu Yunni soften her heart. Any woman would be more or less soft-hearted.
"Get up! Stop holding on to me. Do you really think I'll let you go just by begging me? Tell me the truth now, or don't blame me for being rude!"
Gu Yunni's tone was filled with impatience, and she kicked the person away.
Some people should not be given too much face, otherwise they will become more and more demanding.
"I'll give you a quarter of an hour to think it over. If you don't answer, I'll end your life immediately."
After saying this, she left with Sheng Mingyu and the Imperial Master.
By the way, he also took the man leaning against the wall out.
The man had already been leaning against the wall, shivering, looking at Gu Yunni as if he were looking at a devil.
"Princess, I really didn't know it was you. Please, don't kill me. I'll do whatever you ask me to do, and I'll tell you everything you ask me to say. I won't hide anything."
The man knelt in front of Gu Yunni and begged bitterly.
He was so bold this morning that he even dared to boss the Crown Prince's wife around.
"What are you afraid of? Aren't you asking me to do something for you? I'm doing it for you now, so why are you so nervous? Do you think I'd harm you? Tell me the truth. What's going on?"
Gu Yunni spread her hands as if she was not the one threatening people just now.
The man was stunned for a long time before he spoke, "What is the matter that the Crown Princess is talking about? I have already explained what I should know. I don't understand the questions you just asked. Why don't you go ask him? I really don't know anything."
If he really knew, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
"You're almost dead, yet you only know to go to the county government office to beg the governor. Do you really think the governor can save you? If it weren't for the few of us guarding the county government office, you would have died long ago!"
Gu Yunni spoke with disdain. It wasn't that she looked down on useless people, but mainly because such useless and cowardly people were really speechless.
"Forget it, there's no point asking you these nonsense questions! Then think about whether the person inside has any weaknesses. If you can find out the truth, you can be saved. You can't hide here forever."
Sheng Mingyu and the Imperial Master sat on the chairs nearby and watched Gu Yunni perform, without anyone participating.
Gu Yunni did a good job from beginning to end, and they wouldn't have done any better if they got involved.
"Princess, I really don't understand what his weakness is. In fact, I haven't been here long. How can I possibly understand it? The people in the mansion know it so clearly? Why don't you ask something else? What if I can answer it?"
The man was in trouble again, frowning and trying hard to beg for mercy.
"Alright, alright, then just sit here and take it easy. We'll go in and ask around. If we can find something, that would be great. If not, there's nothing I can do."
Gu Yunni didn't waste any more time. Seeing that a quarter of an hour was about to pass, she and Sheng Mingyu walked back into the house.
The guards inside began to tremble when they saw Gu Yunni and the others appear. These people were really like demons.
Why does it keep lingering in front of my eyes?
"Have you thought it through? Do you want to tell the truth? You don't have much time left. Daybreak is coming soon. When daybreak comes, even if I have the ability to do it, I won't be able to put you back."
Gu Yunni's tone was impatient, she was really angry.
She was exhausted after a whole night of hard work, but still had no results.
"Think it over! I'll tell you everything I know. As long as you can spare my life, I won't ask for anything else, and I don't want to go back to the Wang family. Can you find me a place to hide?"
"Okay! This isn't a big deal. As long as you're willing to tell the truth, everything can be discussed."
After hearing what this person said, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. They both knew how persistent Gu Yunni was.
Fortunately, I was willing to tell the truth, so I didn't have to go through with it any longer.
"I only know one thing. Every day, the people I capture are dragged to the basement. The master will personally bleed them until all the blood is drained. I am only responsible for capturing them. I don't have to do anything else. The master has a secret guard beside him."
His lips turned pale as he said this.
This is also the reason why he has always been unwilling to tell the truth. He is afraid that he will end up like those dead people.
"Killing people and bleeding?!"
Gu Yunni shouted loudly, her tone full of shock.
"How could someone be so cruel! Have you witnessed it yourself? Is there any real evidence? You can't just smear someone based on a few words. I want to see real evidence."
Gu Yunni remained calm.
The main reason is that Mr. Wang has a good reputation outside, and this matter will sooner or later be brought to the attention of the people.
If there is no evidence, I am afraid the people will still cause trouble for her.
"No." The guard shook his head regretfully, and Gu Yunni also sighed.
However, what the guard said next restored Gu Yunni's confidence.
"Although I don't know how the master did all these things, and I don't know where the secret guard is, I know where the basement is. If you need me, I can take you there, but I don't know if we can get in."
The guard spoke hurriedly just to curry favor with Gu Yunni.
Since I have already betrayed Master Wang, I might as well betray him completely so that I can survive.
Helping Mr. Wang is indeed not as good as helping the Crown Prince's Consort.
"Okay! Then you can stay with me for the next few days. Don't worry about anything. Let Master Wang look for you first. I'll take you out when I need you."
"good."
Gu Yunni also nodded quickly. She said that this person knew a lot of things and indeed got a huge clue.
