Qiao Jiaojiao understood instantly.
If this matter were to be brought to the attention of Emperor Yong now, Aunt Rou would definitely be brought to trial by Emperor Yong.
Emperor Yong's obsession with Yu Liu cannot be underestimated. If Aunt Rou plays the emotional card and lets the matter go, she will really vomit blood!
Therefore, the best time is to wait until the second prince returns!
When the time comes, let this matter and the mystery surrounding his life experience explode together, and kill the Second Prince by surprise!
Qiao Tianjing knew that Qiao Jiaojiao was smart and would be able to guess his intention, so he couldn't help but rub Qiao Jiaojiao's little head lovingly.
"Oh, little sister, after the assassin was drugged, Aunt Rou noticed something was wrong and she must have sent someone to tell Uncle Zhou."
"But she didn't expect that we were so well prepared and had already surrounded the place with water."
"The assassin who reported the news was discovered by the Crown Prince's secret guards. Seeing that he had no way to escape, he bit himself with poison."
"It seems that Uncle Zhou still doesn't know about the situation here. We should keep it a secret for a while and not reveal our true identity."
"Before the Second Prince returns to the court, Uncle Zhou will not need any assassins for the time being."
Qiao Jiaojiao nodded repeatedly.
Qiao Tianjing stood up holding Qiao Jiaojiao and asked, "Little sister, can you still hold on?"
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up immediately when she heard this, "Are you going to start the interrogation?"
Qiao Tianjing nodded, "But there has to be a certain order. Aunt Rou seems to be a tough nut to crack."
"But Yuanyou seems to be afraid of death, so he is a great entry point."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiaojiao suddenly chuckled.
"Brother, just go ahead and interrogate him. I'll give you a surprise later!"
Qiao Tianjing raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "Then I'll wait and see, big brother."
Qiao Tianjing carried Qiao Jiaojiao to Qiao Bo, carefully covered Qiao Bo with his cloak, and called Qiao Shisan, then walked towards the room where Yuan You was imprisoned.
At this time, Qiao Jiaojiao suddenly remembered something and whispered, "Brother, don't forget to ask about Guiqulaixiyuan!"
Qiao Tianjing nodded slightly and pushed the door open.
Master Yuanyou's hands and feet were tied up. He was sitting huddled in a corner. When he saw Qiao Tianjing coming in, his eyes immediately widened with fear.
Before Qiao Tianjing started to speak, Yuan You had already begged for mercy: "Mercy! Please spare my life, benefactor! I was... threatened and bewitched by someone!"
Qiao Tianjing ignored him and turned to wink at Qiao Shisan.
Thirteen understood, strode up to Yuanyou, and without saying a word, he punched him hard, finally pinching his left scapula and exerting force suddenly!
Snap——
"ah--"
Yuanyou cried out in agony, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and screamed anxiously:
"Mercy! Mercy!"
At this time, Qiao Shisan changed direction and pinched Yuanyou's right scapula again.
Before his men could even use any force, Yuan You was already so frightened that tears were streaming down his cheeks, and he shouted, "Donor! Good man! I will tell you whatever you want to ask me! Stop torturing me!"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Tianjing snorted coldly, dragged a chair over and sat down, his eyes full of coldness.
Can't you bear this?
The children he sold here endured torture thousands of times more than this minor beating!
Seeing Yuanyou's cowardly look at this moment, and thinking about how he pretended to be virtuous and kind-hearted at the Tzu Chi Bureau during the day, Qiao Tianjing wished he could break his bones!
Don't be impatient.
The retribution for these evil men has just begun, let’s get the truth out of him first!
"Whatever I ask, you will tell me?"
Qiao Tianjing looked down at Yuan You and asked in a calm voice.
As soon as Qiao Shisan's men exerted force, Yuan You hurriedly nodded, "Tell me, tell me! I'll tell you everything!"
Qiao Tianjing nodded, "Okay, a man who knows the current situation is a hero. If you cooperate a little, you will suffer less."
"Otherwise, I will have my men break your bones one by one, and then put them back together over and over again, making it impossible for you to live or die!"
Qiao Tianjing's voice suddenly turned cold, and his words were as fast and sharp as arrows, frightening Yuan You so much that he began to tremble all over.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Qiao Tianjing slowly spoke: "Tell me, when did you start working for Yu Fei?"
Qiao Tianjing's question was very clever, he just wanted to trick Yuan You!
He and his younger sister both firmly believed that all this was a plot set up by Yu Liu.
He immediately revealed the mastermind behind the scenes, just to let Yuanyou know that he already had a lot of information and was not someone who could be easily fooled!
If the guess is wrong...
No, Qiao Tianjing didn’t think that he and Qiao Jiaojiao would guess wrong!
Sure enough, the next moment, Yuan You raised his head with a look of horror, staring at Qiao Tianjing in disbelief.
When Qiao Jiaojiao saw this, her heart skipped a beat.
It’s Yu Liu indeed!
"You you you.....what are you doing..."
Yuanyou stuttered and before he could explain what he meant, Qiao Tianjing looked at Qiao Shisan again.
Qiao Shisan's men exerted force, and Yuan You dared not say anything nonsense, and said quickly: "Fifteen years ago! It was fifteen years ago!"
"At that time, Concubine Yu was pregnant, and His Majesty brought her to the Huguo Temple to burn incense. At that time, I was one of Master's disciples!"
"Back then...back then, my six senses were not pure, and the Jade Concubine caught me. The Jade Concubine promised that as long as I worked for her, she would not report me, and she would also allow me to be the next abbot!"
"I was bewitched and agreed to Empress Yufei's request!"
Qiao Tianjing carefully observed Yuanyou's expression, and after confirming that he was not lying, he continued to ask:
"How did she push you to the position of host? What have you done for her over the years?"
Yuan You had cold sweat on his forehead. Qiao Shisan was pinching his scapula hard all the time, causing him to gasp in pain.
"Yu Fei...Yu Fei sent someone to poison my master's tea, causing him to die without anyone noticing, as if he had passed away naturally."
"Master originally wanted to marry the eldest brother, but Jade Concubine... Jade Concubine had someone send a woman into the eldest brother's meditation room and fed him dirty drugs."
"After breaking his vows, the eldest brother felt ashamed of himself and his master, so he committed suicide in his meditation room that night."
"As the second disciple, I successfully became the new abbot with the help of Jade Concubine."
"Immediately afterwards, Concubine Yu began to place people in the temple. I...even I don't know how many people she placed there."
"Later, I was called to be the director of Tzu Chi. Yu Fei asked me to send some children to the back mountain of Huguo Temple regularly. That's it... That's all..."
"That's all?"
Qiao Tianjing suddenly raised his voice.
"How many children have you sent in over the years?"
Yuanyou shook his head repeatedly, "I don't know, I don't know!"
Qiao Tianjing stood up suddenly and shouted coldly: "Still playing dumb? Do it!"
Qiao Shisan exerted force, and Yuan You screamed miserably:
"I don't know! I really don't know! I have seen the miserable plight of those children. I dare not count them, I dare not think about them!"
When Qiao Tianjing heard this, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
This old bald donkey already knew how miserable those children would be, yet he still went against his conscience and acted as the executioner again and again!
If he wasn't still of great use, Qiao Tianjing would have wanted to kill him right now!
After a while, Qiao Tianjing finally calmed down. He did not forget Qiao Jiaojiao's instructions, and asked in a cold voice:
"In the Guiqulaixi courtyard, who tied the red string on the Jade Concubine's memorial tablet?"
Yuanyou looked up in shock when he heard this. He didn't expect that such a secret was known by the person in front of him.
He... who is he!
Qiao Tianjing looked at him coldly, "Didn't you say you were waiting to suffer?"
Yuanyou was filled with despair. The man in front of him came prepared. If he didn't say anything, he would be tortured to death.
Thinking of this, Yuanyou said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty...it was tied by the current emperor himself!"
