322, interrogation
The person who spoke was obviously angry with such an arrogant attitude and stared at Chu Ling for a long time and couldn't speak. Chu Ling didn't pay much attention to him, and his eyes quickly moved away from him. He looked back at the prefect of Chengtian and asked, "Where is the person?" The prefect of Chengtian quickly waved to the yamen runners following behind him. Immediately, several yamen runners stepped forward and carried several people out from a small room in the corner and threw them on the ground. People who were just caught in were still in shock only then discovered that there were other prisoners in the prison.
Three or four men in black were thrown to the ground, one of them fell to the ground and his face was covered in blood and could hardly see his original face. Chu Ling didn't care and looked down at the people on the ground. At this time, four or five hours had passed since she and Jun Wuhuan were intercepted and killed in the street. These people were no longer the urgency of Chu Ling, but were covered with scars on his body, and one of them was even dying. Obviously, Feng Zheng had put in his strength to capture these people.
Chu Ling nodded with some satisfaction. After all, she was not a Virgin. She felt very comfortable when she saw the person who made her sad.
Chu Ling walked over, leaned over and grabbed one of the people's hair and lifted the person's face from the ground. He didn't care about the other party's blood, and asked lightly: "Who sent you here?"
"Nangong...Nangong Yuyue." The man said.
Chu Ling sneered, pressed his hand heavily on the ground, and the man's head hit back to the ground. Then he was lifted up again and asked, "Who sent you here?"
"Nangong..." Before he could finish his words, he was hit again. The floor was stained with blood, which was left by the person who was caught in his hand and hit the stone slab. The people around him who were already angry could not help but calm down when they saw this scene. Although Princess Shenyou looked calm at this moment, she always felt that there was a chill under the calmness.
"You...what are you going to ask?" The man in black who was hit so dizzy that he couldn't help but ask urgently. After being hit a few more times, he would really die. This princess Shenyou was not only ruthless when he was intercepted, but obviously was not a good person in private! He regretted taking on this job.
Chu Ling curled her lips and smiled, "You said you are from Nangong Yuyue?" The man in black hesitated for a moment and nodded. Chu Ling sneered, "No matter how stupid Nangong Yuyue is, there are no subordinates like you who will betray the Lord as soon as they open their mouths. What's more... do you think I don't know the people from Baita?" Nangong Yuyue could personally intercept Chu Ling and Jun Wuhuan, so naturally she would not be afraid of using her own people. In fact, those who came later were indeed from Baita, but they retreated too quickly, and Feng Zheng obviously did not be able to catch them. Since Nangong Yuyue had already activated the people from Baita, how could he still find such unreliable killers?
The man immediately became silent and stopped talking.
Chu Ling said lightly: "It doesn't make any sense to play Sanzhen Jiulie in front of me. Anyway, you will say it in the end. If you say it earlier, you can suffer less." The man in black gritted his teeth and said nothing. Chu Ling sneered and obviously sneered at the so-called love and loyalty of these killers. He grabbed the other party's head and pressed it directly on the ground. After a silent sound, the man finally fainted smoothly.
"..." There was silence in the cell, and Chu Ling smiled faintly at the stunned people. He turned around and looked at another man in black and asked, "What do you want to say?"
The man was already very injured. When he saw Chu Ling's smile, he couldn't help but shiver and swallowed, "I...I..."
I saw a flash of cold light in front of me, and the dagger in Chu Ling's hand had reached his neck. Chu Ling said, "Don't hesitate, just say it."
The man closed his eyes and gritted his teeth and said, "It was the head of the An family who sent us!"
Chu Ling frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "An Jia? Who is it?" The next sentence was to ask the Chengtian Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture standing not far away. The Chengtian Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture looked a little ugly, but for some reason he rarely obeyed Chu Lingyan's plan. He raised his hand and pointed at a room in the cell without saying a word.
Chu Ling looked up and saw a middle-aged short-bearded man in his forties, looking a little familiar.
"You are slandering!" The man's face changed and he said sternly. Chu Ling frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and knocked on his forehead and said, "I remembered that Li Dan's incident... You are with Lord Zhu and Lord Li." Chengtian Prefecture Prime Minister hurriedly approached Chu Ling and whispered, "Princess, Lord Zhu and Lord Li are both gentlemen, and they can't do such things." Chu Ling looked at him with a strange look and said, "I didn't say that this matter has something to do with them. In addition... Lord, how did you achieve the position of Chengtian Prefecture Prime Minister so simply?"
"..." The prefect of Chengtian was speechless. The princess's words were really hard to describe.
Chu Ling walked to the door of the prison cell and stood opposite the head of the An family inside. Chu Ling smiled at him, and even reached out to hook his finger and said, "Come onion, tell me, which onion are you?"
This action is really frivolous to people from famous families. Such words sound too light to people from famous families. The head of the An family gritted his teeth and said, "The princess is too arrogant. You are so bold and arrogant. Do your Majesty know?" Chu Ling smiled at him and said, "Guess."
Of course he wouldn't guess, and said in a deep voice: "I'm not speaking properly, frivolously demeanor, and the princess's behavior is really insulting..." Before he finished speaking, he was pulled to the railing of the cell with one hand, and his head was pulled outside. Chu Ling said coldly: "I asked you which onion you are? Why are you talking so much? Do you don't understand what I said or what?"
"You!" The head of the An family was angry, but it felt really uncomfortable to be pulled on the collar of someone else's clothes. Just now, the impression of Chu Ling pressing someone else's head hitting the floor was too clear. Although he was angry, the head of the An family still replied: "I am An Liyao, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue." Chu Ling tilted his head and said curiously: "My Minister of the Ministry of Revenue? Who gave you the courage to go against me? Hum?"
Seeing Chu Ling's eyes swept towards him lightly, the prefect of Chengtian was trembling and whispered in a low voice: "Princess, although Lord An is only a fourth-rank official, the An family has not left the palace. However, his mother and Princess An Xin's mother are the relatives of the relatives. Therefore, Lord An is considered Princess An Xin's cousin." Anyway, he is destined to offend these people. Since this is the case, it is better to offend him completely. Anyway, if he sits in this position, he will have to offend His Majesty if he doesn't offend these people! How gentle your Majesty is, it is still easy to deal with his little prefect of Chengtian. In this situation, it is probably not feasible to be a peacemaker.
Chu Ling raised his eyebrows and said, "Princess Anxin's cousin?"
An Liyao was also shocked, but his relationship with Princess An Xin in the capital was not a secret, and he was not afraid of being exposed. He immediately said in a deep voice: "What if Princess An Xin and I are relatives? Could it be that the princess thinks that because of this, I will send someone to assassinate the princess? This reason seems too far-fetched."
Chu Ling smiled and said, "I never manage things in my house because it is far-fetched or far-fetched. If I think it is you who did it, even if everyone in the world believes that you are innocent, it will be useless in this palace." An Liyao secretly felt sweat in his heart, but he still had to pretend to be calm and trustworthy on his face. "The clear one is clear, and the turbid one is turbid! What the princess thinks is not something we can control."
Chu Ling let him go and took a few steps back, and said in a deep voice: "Pull it out, and then let's talk about fifty whips first!"
"Dare you dare?!" An Liyao was shocked, really shocked, scared, not angry. Because he had seen Princess Shenyou whip people in the hall where the government affairs were discussed, and even saw Princess Shenyou kill with his own eyes. He knew that Princess Shenyou could really say that she could do it.
Chu Ling did not argue with him, but just smiled faintly at him and stood aside with his hands behind his back waiting for someone to drag him out.
Seeing that An Liyao was encountered like this, the others immediately felt sad and sad. They didn't care whether they were the killer of An Liyao's sect. Everyone immediately rushed to the railing of the prison cell and said angrily: "You abused lynching and took human life!"
"The punishment cannot be given to the literati! How dare you punish Lord An? It turns out that he is a northern barbarian who grew up in the place of the people of the Clan, and he is rude!"
Chu Ling sneered, and looked at An Liyao being dragged out of the cell. He just slowly glanced at the indignant people and said, "So in your eyes, Shangjing is already a place for the people of the Clan? Well... Taizu established the ancestral system to respect those capable, educated and ambitious scholars, not to provide a protective umbrella for you incompetent, cowardly and stupid idiots. Just curse, if you can scold yourself out of the Chengtian Mansion Prison tonight, the name of this palace will be written backwards from now on."
Everyone was speechless, and some people couldn't help but blush. But the look of looking at Chu Ling was still bad. Even if their words were inappropriate, they could not change the fact that the Shenyou Princess was an uneducated wild girl!
An Liyao was quickly pressed to the ground. A yamen runner took the whip hanging on the wall not far away and threw it towards An Liyao. With a light bang, An Liyao couldn't help screaming. The sound made the whole cell tremble involuntarily.
Chu Ling looked at An Liyao on the ground and asked in a good mood: "How is it? Do you want to answer my question? If you want to open it, you nod your head. I really want someone to prepare for the next one." An Liyao trembled and waited for the arrival of the second whip, and couldn't hear clearly what Chu Ling was saying.
All you can hear is the sound of whip whipping and An Liyao's screams in the entire cell.
"Prince Anxin is here! Prince Anxin is here!" Outside the cell, a report came from afar. Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, but the others couldn't help but show a little joy. No matter what political views they had before, the arrival of Prince Anxin is not surprisingly giving them hope. As long as they can escape, the subsequent matters will naturally be resolved. Everyone waiting comforts themselves like this.
Chu Ling raised his hand and touched the long whip on his waist, turned around and walked towards the door of the cell.
As expected, just a moment, Prince Anxin and Princess Anxin walked in with people one after another.
Prince Anxin's face turned pale. He had just been slapped in the face by Chu Ling during the day, and at night, Chu Ling captured his princess and his cousin, who was also his confidant. How could Prince Anxin not be angry? In Prince Anxin's eyes, Chu Ling was just deliberately trying to ruin his affairs.
Chu Ling smiled and said, "Uncle Anxin, why are you and the princess and aunts here so late?"
Prince Anxin looked at Chu Ling coldly and said coldly: "Isn't the princess so late and there's no rest? What's this king?"
Chu Ling pursed her lips and smiled, her expression elegantly, as if the person who hit the ground was not her just now, wasn't her.
"Uncle Anxin is joking. This palace is just a matter of the will of the father. How can you be as leisurely as Uncle Wang?" Prince Anxin still has time to talk to Chu Lingdong, but Prince Anxin has long been unable to help it. When he saw it, he immediately rushed up and checked his cousin's injuries with worry.
Chu Ling just smiled faintly in his eyes, looked at Prince Anxin and said, "Uncle Wang, Auntie has a good relationship with Lord An."
Prince Anxin was not sure if Chu Ling's words were sarcastic. At this time, he was not interested in these things, so he just glanced at Chu Ling lightly and said, "What does Princess mean?" Chu Ling was puzzled and said, "I'm sorry, what is Uncle Wang talking about?"
Prince Anxin said in a deep voice: "Blatantly abused lynching and whipping court officials, do the princess really think that with His Majesty you can be lawless?"
Chu Ling shrugged and smiled, "Uncle Wang has wronged me, I have never felt that I can be lawless. If I were really as powerful as Uncle Wang said, how could I be intercepted and killed in the street under the feet of the emperor in broad daylight. But the imperial guards refused to come for a long time?"
Prince Anxin: "Don't the princess think that maybe you did too much to cause such a disaster?"
Chu Ling said in surprise: "So, Uncle Wang means that because you don't like me, the ministers who claim to be loyal to Your Majesty and be loyal to the emperor can ignore the intention of his father and directly find a killer to kill me?" Of course, Prince Anxin refused to be fooled and said lightly: "Princess is joking, who will assassinate the princess, isn't it worthless to kill me?"
Chu Ling sneered and said, "But, I think there are indeed many people who don't even want their lives."
Prince Anxin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Princess, let all the ministers go immediately. We can think that what happened tonight has never happened. After all, Brother Boning also said that the princess is still young, right?"
Chu Ling turned his head and looked at Prince Anxin with a righteous look in front of him with a smile. He smiled and said two words, "I don't."
